Chapter 465 Jiuli Tribe (2 in 1 order)
Cangli continued to explain that the nine sons of the dragon also perished in the dragon clan’s homeland—Xuantian Dragon Domain—during the war between gods and demons, and only their offspring born to humans have survived to this day.
Cangli is actually the incarnation of Yinglong's last remaining soul left in this world. He was assisted by the Beidou Star God and reappeared in the world.
He has been waiting for a human dragon descendant like Zhong Wuye to activate the power of his bloodline and restart the divine power of the Xuantian Dragon Realm.
In this way, by utilizing the divine power left by Yinglong, we can break the shackles of the nightmare cocoon and save the people of the world.
In the battle of Chang'an City, after Cangli's body and Taotie died together, his soul finally waited for Zhong Wuye here.
……
Zhong Wuye stared at Cangli's familiar and calm face for a long time, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She spoke slowly, her voice choked with sobs:
"Thanks to your guidance, I have come this far. You have watched me grow from immaturity to maturity, and you have always understood my true inner thoughts."
She lowered her eyes, a look of melancholy between her brows. "On the surface, I appear strong and majestic, but in reality, I've always been fragile and insecure. I'm afraid the calamity I brought upon the dragon clan will happen again, and that my people will be forever doomed. So I've been searching for a place that can protect the dragon clan. Even if it's just an illusory legend, it can ignite the fire of hope in my desperate situation."
Cangli nodded without interrupting her.
Zhong Wuye took a deep breath and continued, "My pretentious, even rebellious exterior is nothing more than a disguise for self-protection. I used to think that only by becoming tough and ruthless enough could I maintain my composure. However, as we embarked on adventures together, I truly realized the importance of family and friends."
She looked at her companions behind her, each figure gleaming with brilliance. "With your company, I have grown from a lonely, lost girl to a leader on my own. I have learned precious things from you: passion, courage, friendship, and justice. These have given me renewed strength and direction."
Having said that, Zhong Wuye looked up at the desolate and broken ruins of the Dragon Domain in the sky, and his eyes flickered with fighting spirit again: "Yes, this place is not the paradise we imagined, but just a devastated battlefield. But because of this, I am even more determined to save the people!"
"I want to find a home for the Dragonborn. This is my unwavering dream. But at the same time, I also hope to save the people of Dayuan and Northern Zhou, and rescue the various monsters in the Shiwan Mountains of southern Xinjiang, even including Wu Ya's Jiuli tribe. I want to create a new era of tolerance and peace, where all living things can find a place to settle down!"
Zhong Wuye's voice grew louder and louder, his words more powerful, filled with the majestic aura of a leader: "Once upon a time, I was so lost and helpless. But now, I finally understand my mission! Let me lead everyone to break through this barrier and open up a truly new world, dedicated to all the creatures blocked within and without!"
Her eyes were like lightning, and her resolute expression moved Cangli and his companions behind him. This was the Dragonborn King they were so proud of!
Cangli took a deep breath and nodded. He spoke calmly, "Very good, you are finally truly prepared and have accomplished the final step of your mission! Let us unite our hearts and minds and work together to break free from this bondage!"
……
Looking at the Soul-Severing Realm barrier that covered the sky and the sun, Zhong Wuye took a deep breath, and a dazzling golden light began to burst out from his whole body!
This was her immense power as a true dragon, stemming from her complete awakening to her dragon roots. Dragon scales gradually emerged from her body, her eyes burned like flames, and her roar was deafening, shaking the entire Dragon Realm!
"roar--!"
Zhong Wuye suddenly raised his head and spewed out a stream of Golden Dragon Hellfire! The dazzling pillar of flame swirled and twisted like a living thing, crashing into the barrier of the Soul Severing Realm and instantly engulfing it!
The barrier of the Soul Severing Realm seemed incredibly solid. Crimson arcs of electricity sizzled in all directions, colliding fiercely with the Golden Dragon Prison Flame! The two forces wrestled with each other, unleashing a series of terrifying energy shockwaves that shook the entire Dragon Realm!
“Ahhhhhhhhhh!” Zhong Wuye roared fiercely, waving his arms. Two huge golden dragon claws shot out from the air, clamping tightly onto the barrier!
Instantly, the Golden Dragon Prison Flame surged from all directions, like the roaring of thousands of snakes, densely enveloping the entire barrier! The battle formation immediately split, and the two forces collided with thunder, causing the dragon domain to churn and surge!
"What a powerful energy." The companions behind him were extremely shocked. They crawled behind the huge rocks and turned around to avoid the sparks and stones thrown from all directions.
"It's just the barrier of the Soul-Severing Realm. With my true dragon power, I will eventually break it!" Zhong Wuye flashed a confident expression, and the dragon scales all over his body became even more brilliant and dazzling!
The Golden Dragon Prison Flame intensified, finally enveloping the barrier completely! The Soul-Breaking Realm's defenses crumbled beneath the bombardment of rolling golden light, culminating in a deafening roar—the entire defense line shattered in mid-air, like a tattered curtain, swishing to either side!
"Success!" The cheers of the companions resounded through the sky.
In an instant, a surging tide of magic power poured out, rushing from the rift in the Soul-Breaking Realm to the Dragon Realm like a galloping horse! Zhong Wuye and his companions only felt a black screen before their eyes, and suffered a shock that swept through their bodies, and retreated in panic in embarrassment.
When the raging waves finally subsided, they finally regained consciousness and opened their eyes. What greeted them was a brand new and mysterious world!
The surroundings weren't a vast universe, but a gloomy and eerie demonic realm! Everywhere were creepy abysses, canyons, and volcanoes. The air was filled with a rancid, pungent smell of sulfur, accompanied by strange roars and groans. The most terrifying thing was the hideous, horrific, and unrecognizable monsters everywhere! They were like nightmares transformed into physical form, crawling, creeping, leaping, roaring, and rushing towards Zhong Wuye and his companions with extreme ferocity!
"Is this the core of the Soul-Breaking Realm?" Zhong Wuye's expression was solemn, and he obviously had not expected such a horrifying scene!
But at this moment, a giant beast resembling a nine-headed snake suddenly bared its fangs and claws, and pounced madly at Zhong Wuye! Green smoke swirled all over its body, as if it would spew out corrosive venom at any moment!
"Be careful!" Cangli shouted, and instantly cast a protective shield, covering Zhong Wuye and his companions.
The venomous snake slammed into the shield, letting out a sharp hiss. Cangli's entire body glowed with golden light, and he cast a magical seal, forcing the monster back!
"We're coming in!" Zhong Wuye looked at the demon army surging outside the shield, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit: "This time, let us fight to the end in this demon realm to save the Nine Heavens!"
……
Once you step into the Demon Realm, it's like being in an endless hell!
All around was a horrific sight: flaming lava gushed out from the ground, covering every inch of the land and scorching the earth to a scorching heat. It roared and surged like a living thing, occasionally spewing out a few clusters of magma, which solidified into two or three lava bombs in mid-air, crashing to the ground and exploding with a pungent sulfur-like smoke.
Even more terrifying was the appearance of twisted, shrunken, charred corpses from the thick smoke, like burned-out creatures writhing in the lava. Whenever a wisp of black mist drifted over and landed on the ground, it would corrode a terrifying crack, emitting a pungent odor of sulfur and heat.
"Be careful! This horrific hellfire is not something that ordinary people can endure!" Cangli was alert to his surroundings while using his magic power to create a transparent shield for everyone, isolating this area from the surroundings.
At that moment, a volcano several feet tall erupted! It let out a deafening roar, and a large amount of boiling magma gushed out from the vent, pouring down like a rolling red waterfall. In the air, the phantom of a scorching dragon suddenly appeared!
The entire Demon Realm darkened, and sulfur rained down from the lava waterfall, scattering everywhere. A gust of wind suddenly swept over, and the lingering smell of sulfur was so overwhelming that it made people dizzy!
"Ugh, everything here is too horrible!" Qin Chuan covered his mouth and nose uncomfortably, almost suffocating. Even the battle-hardened demons were shocked by the hellish scene before them!
"That's right, this is the true core of the Demon Realm!" Zhong Wuye said in a deep voice: "In the past, we only wandered around the edge of the continuum and never really entered its core. Everything here embodies the original power of the Demon Realm!"
As soon as the words fell, a loud rumbling sound came from the ground, making people's hearts and livers tremble! Following this, the earth trembled violently, and countless lava cracks spread rapidly in the surroundings, as if they were about to tear the entire Demon Realm apart!
"What's going on?" Everyone was stunned by this sudden vision and quickly drew their swords to guard against it.
At that moment, a dark shadow emerged from the ground, swirling and soaring into the air! It was a giant beast shaped like a flying dragon, its body a glistening black and blue, as sinister as some kind of decayed metal! It was a hundred meters long, its body covered in dense spikes, and its nine thick, powerful tails whipped behind it, stirring up a gust of wind!
When its terrifying fangs and bloody maw were exposed, deep pits formed around them, with boiling magma swirling in the pits! Its pungent breath burned a trench hundreds of meters long across the ground, with magma gushing out along the way!
"Where did this monster come from?" Before his companions could react, they saw Zhong Wuye soar into the air and slam into the Azure Dragon!
The two collided violently in mid-air, and the roar of the dragon shook the world. The entire sky seemed to be stirred by the two powerful forces, and a violent wind blew up! A few wisps of magma splashed over, and Cangli quickly used his magic power to splash them away, fearing that they would hurt those around him!
At this moment, more giant beasts emerged from the ground! They surged in from all directions, all shaped like grotesque and terrifying insects. Each one was extremely ugly and unrecognizable, and their crawling and leaping movements were terrifying!
"Everyone be careful! These are the nightmare weapons of the Demon Realm!" Cang Li leaped up, transforming into a golden dragon, and clashed head-on with numerous monsters, his claws flying and dragon flames filling the air!
Zhong Wuye and the others also unleashed their powerful strength behind him. Suddenly, the Demon Realm was filled with the flashing of swords and the roar of dragons! They were engaged in a desperate fight with the demons in this sea of fire and hell!
……
Just as Zhong Wuye, Cangli and the others were fighting a desperate battle, entangled with the demon army, a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the chaotic battlefield!
A mysterious young woman in a silk dress, her long black hair flowing softly, looked like a fairy descending to earth. Behind her was a huge magic circle, shimmering with a faint blue light. The light flowed around her body, highlighting her skin, which was as white as snow.
"Isn't this Wu Ya?" Qin Chuan exclaimed in surprise when he saw her face clearly. He had never expected that the Jiuli witch who had caused so many conflicts would show up here at this time!
Zhong Wuye also frowned fiercely, his heart aflame with anger. He saw Wu Ya strolling leisurely, stepping on the flickering fireflies, towards them. Her eyes were as deep as the vast ocean, revealing a cold and arrogant aura.
"Zhong Wuye, you have finally arrived at the center of the Demon Realm." Wu Ya spoke slowly, with a hint of teasing in her voice: "Now, let me take you to experience the true origin of the Demon Realm!"
As she spoke, her expression solemn, she gently pointed at the air. In an instant, Zhong Wuye and the others were enveloped by the dark blue magic circle! The world began to spin and twist, and everything before their eyes transformed into a vortex.
Zhong Wuye felt a wave of dizziness in his head, his feet felt as light as if they were stepping on cotton, and his consciousness quickly faded.
"Is this a dream?" She struggled to maintain her last bit of clarity, then lost her balance and fell into a bottomless nightmare.
In a hazy state, Zhong Wuye seemed to have traveled through centuries. When she finally woke up, she found herself in a strange and primitive world!
The view here is full of lush green primeval trees, towering into the sky and with tangled roots. Among the trees wander some ferocious-looking, half-beast, half-human savage tribes, armed with wooden clubs and stone axes, with muscular build and the agility of leopards.
In the center of the forest lay a vast lake, its surface shimmering with clear, emerald green. The most striking feature was a towering rock in the center, rising like a giant mushroom cap, blocking out the sun.
Atop the rocky hillocks lies a primitive and elegant complex, with wooden "houses" scattered haphazardly. While simple, they exude a secluded island atmosphere. Looking up, one can see the legendary Phoenix tree, the island's largest! Its trunk is powerful, its branches and leaves vast as clouds, and countless golden phoenixes entwine among its branches, gleaming brilliantly in the sunlight.
The barbarians roaming the forest were armed with weapons, their faces grim, and they were brandishing them at each other, making deafening roars. It was obvious that they were competing in some kind of strength contest.
"Is this the original appearance of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times?" Zhong Wuye was shocked by the scene before him and whispered to himself subconsciously.
No wonder Wu Ya has always considered this place her roots; it's the last home of an ancient race on the brink of extinction! Even so backward and primitive, they still consider it their spiritual home, demonstrating the depth of their attachment to their homeland!
At this moment, a wave of incantation quietly spread out. Then, bursts of heavenly singing could be heard from among the lush green leaves!
The song drifted in from afar, gentle and moving, as if holding an inexplicable magic. The primitive tribesmen stopped their movements, their expressions gradually becoming trance-like and entranced. Some simply knelt on the ground, praying madly towards the island in the center of the lake.
The singing emanated from the crown of the towering Phoenix tree. Amidst the verdant branches, a graceful figure in white fluttered, a beautiful Jiuli girl.
The girl's skin was whiter than snow, and her black hair fluttered in the wind, making her look like a fairy from heaven. She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and chanted. Her clear and melodious voice echoed through the forest, and a sense of tranquility spread.
At this moment, the singing suddenly stopped! A group of figures from the primitive tribe rushed over and surrounded the island in the center of the lake! They held sharp blades and let out earth-shaking roars, clearly intending to attack the island!
Dozens of wizards in gorgeous attire then emerged from the island, brandishing their staffs to fend off the enemy. Instantly, the forest erupted in flames, a volley of attacks and defenses erupted! Blades swung, spells swirled through the forest, blasting out with a deafening roar!
"No!" Zhong Wuye exclaimed, about to rush forward to stop them, when everything began to blur. The surrounding woodland and the battle scene suddenly twisted and distorted, transforming into a vast black mist that enveloped her once again.
When she opened her eyes again, the scene before her had completely changed again! This time, a magnificent and majestic empire appeared!
Above his head was a bright moon, gleaming brightly amidst a boundless sea of stars. As Zhong Wuye looked up, he was surprised to discover that it was the Ninth Heaven of the Immortal Realm!
At her feet stood a majestic pyramid-like wall, towering majestically and imposingly. Carved onto the wall were magnificent reliefs in various shapes and postures, including a sleeping dragon totem.
On the city walls, the Jiuli people danced like goddesses, their white robes swaying gracefully, like celestial beings descending from heaven! They were tall and slender, with fair, radiant skin and exquisite features. Even the most ordinary people looked like they were chosen by heaven.
Within the city walls, a vast, majestic, and magnificent capital, its tens of thousands of houses nestled among each other, shrouded in splendor. Towering trees, their branches winding through the streets, shrouded in lush greenery. Interspersed among them, gurgling lakes flowed through the city, flanked by pristine white pavilions.
In the center stood the most magnificent golden palace, resembling the king of the city! The resplendent golden dome soared into the sky, majestic and imposing! Above the main hall, nine-colored auspicious clouds floated high, supporting a gigantic phoenix statue, its fangs bared and claws dancing, blotting out the sky and the sun!
"Is this the heyday of the Jiuli tribe?" Zhong Wuye finally spoke, his tone filled with surprise and admiration. "No wonder they shine so brightly in the immortal world, being hailed as the 'Nine Star Lords'! Even a Dragonborn like me has never witnessed such a magnificent spectacle!"
The Jiuli people were undoubtedly the most intelligent and spiritual race in the world. They established such a magnificent dynasty and brought wisdom and art to the extreme! For a moment, Zhong Wuye was almost intoxicated by the luxurious atmosphere.
