Legend of the Great Sage

tch-black eyes seemed to be able to take in everything.

His appearance was soon blocked by the wind and lightning.
He still possessed the appearance of a young man.

Li Qingshan was taken aback.
He asked the Great Banyan Tree King, “What’s this guy coming back for? A beating?”

The founding emperor’s cultivation clearly was already beyond what the world could tolerate.
Did he potentially have a bad time in the Human realm? But that did not seem to be the case!

There was a flash of dark-azure light, and Gu Yanying returned to the Great Banyan Tree King with Rāhu Xiaoming.
“Originally, I thought they were going to borrow the power of the Human realm to contend against the Hungry Ghost realm.
I didn’t expect him to come down in person.
He seems… to have undergone the fifth heavenly tribulation already!”

It had already been five thousand years since the founding emperor of Great Xia’s ascension, but the flow of time in the Human realm was much slower, so it had probably only been a few centuries or even less.
Despite that, he had actually managed to undergo another heavenly tribulation.
Just how startling was his talent?

Li Qingshan said, “Another sovereign Li!?”

Rāhu Xiaoming said, “No, the Human realm does not have the ability to devour other worlds.
He’s just using the Heaven Climbing Vine as a passageway.
He has to endure the might of the world.
If it were not for the fact that he was born in this world, so the rejection he faces isn’t that severe, he probably would have been reduced to ash already.”

And that is supposed to be rejection that is not that severe!?

Li Qingshan gazed at the terrifying sight that resembled the end of the world.
The rejection from the World of the Nine Provinces was much more frightening than the small world.
It was basically out to kill by force.

Apart from that, there must have been numerous invisible restraints and misfortunes as well.
It definitely was not something an individual could resist.

The Great Banyan Tree King fell silent for a moment.
Suddenly, he seemed to realise something.
“I’ve walked into a trap!”

Li Qingshan was stunned.
He had never seen the Great Banyan Tree King lose his composure like that.
He had always seemed like he was in control of everything with his great wisdom.
Even if he made a miscalculation once in a while, it was not his fault.

This feeling was like Zhuge Kongming calling out in the middle of the battle formation, “Oh no, there’s an ambush!” It was very unusual.

TL: Zhuge Kongming, also known as Zhuge Liang, is a strategist from Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
This paragraph basically gives off the same energy as Admiral Ackbar’s “It’s a trap!” from Star Wars.

Before Li Qngshan could even ask the Great Banyan Tree King what kind of trap he had walked into, the founding emperor had already made it to the altar.
Covered in wounds, the Formation of Gathering Dragons that protected the imperial court of Great Xia had been torn apart in the blink of an eye.

The tremendous winds and lightning surged forth as the flames set the imperial court alight like it was the end of the world.
Everyone paled.
Clearly, the might of the world did not care about accidentally harming the innocent at all.
In another moment, all of them would have been doomed.

With a dragon’s cry, the five-clawed golden dragon coiled around the mountain rushed out of the sea of fire, rose up to the top of the mountain, and rushed into his chest.

Si Long pressed down on the Dragon Province cauldron gently.
The cauldron shuddered and emitted a dragon’s cry.
A dragon cry also emerged from his mouth.

Before anyone had realised it, his appearance had already changed.
Dragon horns grew from his head, and his body was covered in dragon scales.
He had become a mix between a dragon and a person.
Only his smile remained exactly the same.

Immediately, the sky full of wind and lightning dispersed as if it had never existed in the first place.

On the altar, at the top of the mountain, Si Long fiddled around with the exquisite Dragon Province cauldron with a single hand.
He murmured softly, “It’s been a long time, nine provinces.”

Rāhu Xiaoming said, “So he’s a dragon descendant.
Yeah.
He’s probably become a true dragon already!”

So-called dragon descendants were creatures that possessed the bloodline of the Dragon clan.
The trichiliocosm possessed a great variety of strange bloodlines.
The most widespread one was the dragon bloodline, and the one with the most descendants were dragon descendants.
The bloodline of the Dragon clan could merge with other bloodlines.
If dragon descendants cultivated arduously, they could purify their dragon blood and become true dragons.

Li Qingshan was stern.
It was no wonder why he could obtain the support of so many Daemon Kings.
He had never been a pure human in the first place.
“This guy doesn’t seem to be easy to deal with.”

The Great Banyan Tree King let out a great sigh.
“Sigh, you’re not his opponent.
Get ready for ascension quickly!”
