Chapter 180 - 178: Five Hegemons
The first portion of the message read:
"Lord Wei, I’ve received news from the Shadow Haven Pavilion. According to them, there was once a society that devoted their beliefs to an ancient dragon called Anu Zhirazu, herald as a descendent of True Dragons."
Wei Wuyin read this and it caused his expression to change with a tinge of excitement! Anu was the azure-scaled creature he had met on the Myriad Yore Continent, and he had been seeking information regarding him for quite a while. He couldn’t fathom why such an existence was located beneath the Beast-Taming Sect.
Moreover, Anu could be a threat of the future, so he wanted to ensure he had a sufficient amount of knowledge regarding this variable.
As for Societies, they were often seen as religious groups with members that bonded together under a common belief or goal, and they weren’t much different from sects. In fact, they could be considered as alliances of various like-minded forces.
He didn’t delay and read the rest.
"Anu is classified as a now-extinct member of the Horned-Firmament Dragon Race. This specific race and several others were obliterated by the Divine King Han Xei and his force, the Elemental Heaven Pavilion. Supposedly, there were countless other societies that worshipped dragons at that time, even stronger than Anu’s, but they were eradicated after Divine King Han Xei took action."
Oh?
’So was it hiding beneath that mountain? But it seemed like it had a grudge against the Beast-Taming Sect. Was there no connection or did the Beast-Taming Sect quietly built a base around its assumed hibernating corpse trying to seek benefits? Well, considering they enslaved beasts, I don’t blame it for obliterating them all.’
Wei Wuyin had seen crueler acts for less. As a beast worshipped by humans, forced to witness their enslavement and demeaning statuses, even he would be furious beyond imagination. However, a glorious past was still that—a past.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com
’To think the Divine King Han Xei actually eliminated an entire beast race...wonder what’s the story there. Now that I think about it, it’s possible he’s the Founder of the Elemental Heaven Pavilion.’ His eyes roamed a bit before settling on this conclusion. The Elemental Heaven Pavilion was one of the five hegemonic powers of the Tri-Vision Starfield, controlling immense territory and authority.
They were alongside the Myriad Monarch Sect, Sacred Light Palace, Demonic Abyss Mountain, and San Clan.
Long Chen felt too dangerous to act against due to his ring, but if an opportunity presented itself, he needed to take it. Regardless if it was Long Chen or that other Blessed. He just had to do it discreetly and with utmost certainty. If that beautiful expert descended for revenge, his death might be unavoidable even with his Karmic Luck Value. He didn’t want to test it.
Unlike the others, he didn’t have some protective charm from some spirit or expert. In fact, he felt the Heavenly Daos was quite biased as it provided everyone else with beauties and protective shields. Perhaps the truth was that there are different sets of methods or guidelines of Karmic Luck Value usage for each Blessed, but he still felt uncomfortable thinking about it.
Everything he received had all been opportunities that required his own talent, comprehension, level of situational discernment, ability to grasp to its fullest. A single mistake and he could miss out on everything and receive absolutely nothing.
He decided to put aside such thoughts for later, unwilling to descend into becoming whining and ungrateful. If his karmic luck was tied to min-maxing his lucky chances, then so be it. He’ll always maximize every chance he gets with his own ability and talent.
Speaking of, it’s been three years and he was still in the Qi Condensation Realm. The Draconic Natal Soul was still undergoing various changes of his bloodline, organs, and cellular structure. His blood, heart, and bones were slowly becoming light-grey in color. His body had given birth to additional arteries and veins, leading to other portions of his body, and he had even given birth to a unique organ that sat at the base of his throat, behind his tonsil.
It was like an abnormal crystalized growth of flesh, but it had a few holes within. This growth seemed to connect into his larynx, and quivered slightly whenever he wanted to loudly speak. It was clearly underdeveloped.
He felt it would definitely show itself after his bloodline had solidified and the various transformations had completed. When his Gaze of the Celestial Spirit viewed his body at a microscopic level, he could see his blood and bone cells possess unique rippling patterns on their surface. It was endlessly repeating and vivid, making him recall the refined Jade Crystal.
"What is this exactly?"
ROAR!!!
Just as he asked this question, his body emanated a ferociously explosive roar that shook the entire Sky Palace! The tiles beneath his feet shattered, fragmented and countless cracks extended that penetrated through the dense material and formations that reinforced the walls!
Wei Wuyin’s head jerked back as his silver eyes effused a bright grey light! His entire body was filled with an unfathomably domineering and dominant power that quaked his everything!
A mysterious force shook space and time, causing a disturbance of a hundred feet with him as the epicenter to tremble endless as countless ripples emerged out of nowhere. They appeared and vanished as if they were fading in and out of space. The world instantly became restless!
He heard a voice that sent his mind, heart, and soul!
"I! AM! VOID!!!" - Draconic Void Natal Soul!
