Chapter 288: An Omen of Great Calamity!
“Qiu Long?”
“Why does that sound so familiar…”
Wan Tianchou murmured to himself, sinking into thought…
The other two women did not disturb him, waiting quietly.
A long while later.
Wan Tianchou slowly raised his head, as if recalling something.
“I remember now. Back then, in the Jing River Dragon Clan, there was a Dragon Lord at the Earthly Immortal stage who loved to run wild and do as he pleased all day long.”
“He stirred up the Jing River Dragon Clan until heaven and earth were filled with resentment, and he even harmed his own clan.”
“In the end, the clan could no longer tolerate him.”
“This little dragon at the Earthly Immortal stage was ultimately stripped of his cultivation and thrown into a Middle Thousand World.”
“It seems he was also taken advantage of and given a beating by a certain sect.”
“This Prison Dragon Realm… should be the world suppressing this little dragon.”
Wan Tianchou’s expression gradually turned calm.
A suppressed little Earthly Immortal dragon was no trouble for him.
The key point was that this Middle Thousand World had actually broken away from the Jing River Realm’s domain.
After all, as long as he knew, this kind of situation was extremely rare!
And when this kind of situation appeared, there was only one explanation!
This world had very likely evolved into a Great Thousand World!
Even if it wasn’t, there had to be something else fishy going on!
And if this was true, then it made him far too excited!
“Hahahaha, heaven blesses This Venerable One!”
“I never imagined that in my lifetime I could still run into such a good thing!”
Wan Tianchou threw his head back and roared, his voice filled with excitement and elation.
If his guess came true, then the value of this Prison Dragon Realm would be impossible to estimate.
“A newborn Immortal Realm, though it may not have any supreme treasures right now.”
“But sooner or later, this world will become the Jing River! And in that process, plenty of supreme treasures will surely be born!”
“If I can seize the fortune of this Immortal Realm…”
“Then I, Wan Tianchou, will have no more scruples whatsoever!”
“A newborn Immortal Realm, just thinking about it makes one’s mouth water!”
The more Wan Tianchou thought about it, the more excited he became.
His gaze was brilliant as the stars, radiating a dazzling light.
His eyes were full of desire.
He wished he could make the trip to the Prison Dragon Realm himself right now and inspect it.
But he could only think about it.
He was an Eighth Transition Heavenly Immortal. The resources needed to cross realms — even if he threw the entire Myriad Spirit Sect in — probably wouldn’t be enough.
Moreover, for a newborn Immortal Realm, sending his disciple was already sufficient.
Thinking of this, he hesitated no longer.
He waved his large hand and issued orders to the three before him.
“Ruyun, seal the news that this Prison Dragon Realm has broken away from its domain for me.”
“Under no circumstances let anyone else learn of it.”
“Also, this world probably requires you to make the trip personally.”
“That little dragon may have had his realm stripped back then, but at the very least he can still display the strength of a Seventh Transition True Immortal.”
“Though your two junior sisters have both reached the Ninth Transition True Heart, it’s still unstable overall.”
“So you should still make the trip yourself. However, you may take the two of them with you.”
After Wan Tianchou finished speaking, he closed his eyes and waited quietly for good news.
Before him, the white-robed young woman named Ruyun heard this, though her face was respectful.
Inwardly, she was actually somewhat displeased.
A mere Middle Thousand World — was it worth the condescension of a Human Immortal powerhouse like her?
But seeing Wan Tianchou’s expression, she held it back.
A moment later.
She parted her red lips slightly. “As you command, Master.”
With that, she led the other two beautiful women away.
As for Wan Tianchou, he could not help but sit cross-legged on the meditation cushion, wanting to divine something about this Prison Dragon Realm.
“Weng!”
In that instant, a faint spatial ripple emanated from within his body.
In the next instant.
An illusory scroll, dreamlike and ethereal, quietly unfurled above Wan Tianchou’s head like thin mist.
Vague and mysterious.
Strands of profound, unfathomable aura seeped from it.
It was as if even time and space were flowing within.
At the same time, behind him, a majestic and solemn giant vast divine chain manifested.
Like a lock of the firmament, it coiled around his waist.
Tightly wrapped, fully displaying its extraordinary power.
Upon the divine chain were ancient and intricate Runes, glittering brilliantly.
These Runes contained the vast and boundless laws of heaven and earth.
Clearly, they were the unique mark of Wan Tianchou’s supreme life-bound immortal treasure.
Accompanying the slight tremor of the divine chain.
“Boom!”
A tremendous crash.
Countless mysterious and wondrous Runes burst forth instantly.
Like brilliant stars.
Illuminating every dark corner around, leaving all who saw it shaken.
At this moment, Wan Tianchou’s expression was focused and grave.
He held nothing back as he tried to comprehend the cycle of karma behind this journey to the Lower Realm.
But just then, as the immortal power within his body surged violently.
That originally auspicious and calm divine chain actually began to glow with an unsettling crimson light!
Even more bizarre was that the Runes on the divine chain twisted and deformed one after another.
As if unable to bear some indescribable pressure, they revealed a ferocious and terrifying side.
Detecting this change.
Wan Tianchou could not help but frown tightly.
A sense of crisis originating from the depths of his soul instantly enveloped him.
Suddenly.
The divine chain that had been hanging loosely at his waist seemed to be pulled by an invisible force.
Instantly pulled taut like a bowstring!
Letting out a piercing shriek.
Immediately after, a sharp pain came.
Strings of crystalline blood beads splashed from the divine chain, like notes of destruction.
A smear of bright red blood slid down the taut divine chain.
By coincidence, it dripped onto Wan Tianchou’s open palm.
Making his heart sink involuntarily, foreboding an unknown crisis about to arrive.
“Hm?!”
“An omen of great calamity!”
“How could that possibly be!”
Wan Tianchou’s pupils contracted sharply, and he cried out in shock.
It seemed he could not believe what he was seeing.
After all, as long as he knew, Ruyun was his eldest disciple.
A Human Immortal cultivator, and in the Jing River Realm she counted as upper-middle tier.
Yet now, in a newly risen Great Thousand World, she had actually manifested an omen of great calamity!
This was something Wan Tianchou simply could not accept!
After all, as long as he knew, this Middle Thousand World had only just been born.
No matter how brilliant and extraordinary it was, it could never possibly threaten a Human Immortal powerhouse!
“Sss—”
Wan Tianchou drew a sharp breath, his heart pounding wildly, almost suffocating.
But he was, after all, a generation’s枭雄 — a ruthless overlord — and his reactions were extremely fast. He immediately steadied his mind and continued divining.
Yet the result was the same.
Once more, the result was still the same!
“Perhaps that little dragon’s cultivation has recovered somewhat?”
“It seems this trip must be handled with caution.”
Thinking this, Wan Tianchou tossed out a jade box from his Storage Ring.
The jade box opened, and gold and silver radiance shot into the sky, illuminating all directions.
“Boom!”
In that instant, wind and clouds surged.
A golden light and a silver light, like two Flood Dragons soaring into the air, threw heaven and earth into chaos!
“Gold-Silver Flood Dragon Swords! Go, aid my disciple!”
Wan Tianchou extended his hand.
The Gold-Silver Flood Dragon Swords immediately flew out, sweeping through the air in mid-air.
In the blink of an eye, they rushed beyond the hall!
This was a pair of Third Order immortal treasures he had obtained in his early years.
They possessed their own spirituality.
Even an ordinary Earthly Immortal would be left with a headache facing them.
With these immortal treasures present, even if that little dragon’s cultivation had recovered, he would absolutely not be a match for his good disciple…
