History's Number 1 Founder

Noticing Shi Yu’s actions, the gazes of Zhu Yi, the Earth Dragon King and Azure Sky Dragon all straightened.

Golden lights flashed within the Earth Dragon King’s eyes and they even seemed to condense to form a solid entity.

He stared at the light ball that contained Shi Xingyun. After a moment, his expression changed, “The vibration of this soul…it’s the reincarnation of the soul remnants of the First Dragon’s offspring?!”

Shi Xingyun opened her eyes at this moment and she appeared very calm. But in the light ball, her body was unable to move. Her powers were also restrained.

The light ball that contained her slowly sank into the city wall.

Shi Xingyun did not feel uncomfortable. As she was engulfed by the lights of the Immortal Dragon City, she felt both familiar and unfamiliar.

Shi Xingyun’s body started to degrade. Her entire person turned into light and her body structure was lost.

The projection of a young lady who seemed like 15 or 16 years old appeared. She had the appearance of Shi Xingyun when she was 15 or 16 years old. It was her Nascent Soul.

Besides this, there was another giant that was revolved by 5 light dragons of varying colors – crimson-red, green, yellow, white and black. The giant was Shi Xingyun’s Cosmic Form after she cultivated the Secret Manual of the Five Imperial True Dragons.

But these were not the most eye-catching things. What bothered Zhu Yi, the Earth Dragon King and the Azure Sky Dragon King was a projection that floated above the head of Shi Xingyun’s Nascent Soul.

A clear yet high-pitched dragon roar resonated and a dragon soul appeared in front of everyone.

Above the dragon soul, there was a subtle patch of auspicious cloud that was formed from light. This Dragon Awe Auspicious Cloud and dragon soul seemed to be illusory and unreal, but the majestic might that they contained was indeed petrifying.

Different from the Dragon Awe Auspicious Clouds of the Azure Sky Dragon King and Blazing Flames Dragon King, the dragon soul was below a patch of Auspicious Cloud that was pure-golden in color just like that of the Earth Dragon King.

It belonged to a pure-blooded Immemorial Celestial Dragon!

Zhu Yi was expressionless as he watched this scene, “For the various dragon species such as the Azure Sky Dragons and Blazing Flames Dragon, they need to reach the Vipralopa Stage before they can obtain the body of an Immemorial Celestial Dragon. There’s no exception.”

“The only special condition is when the First Dragon procreates with the Ancestral Dragon Wei that leads to the natural birth of an Immemorial Celestial Dragon.”

The First Dragon was known as Xuan Shang and later generations often referred to him as Emperor Jue. Whereas the Ancestral Dragon Wei was Xuan Shang’s wife and another ancestor of the Dragon tribe called Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning.

“Ever since the Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning passed on, there were no longer any dragons birthed as Immemorial Celestial Dragons anymore.” Zhu Yi stared at the dragon soul formed from Shi Xingyun. “Although the foundation of this dragon soul is strong, it’s not a Vipralopa Stage dragon. But as an Immemorial Celestial Dragon, it’s indeed the offspring of the Ancestral Dragon and First Dragon.”

During the Spiritual Conference of Huanghai, Zhu Yi had already witnessed for himself the Immemorial Celestial Dragon soul that Shi Xingyun revealed. He wasn’t bothered at that point in time. After all, the Great Qin Empire laid claim to the earliest ancestral ground of the dragons, the Heavenly Dragon Ancient Land. While it was unlikely that the soul remnants of an Immemorial Celestial Dragon was left behind in the Heavenly Dragon Ancient Land, it was not entirely impossible.

However, the complete profile of the dragon soul seemed to be entirely different today.

Although it’s a reincarnation of a dragon soul, it’s only the soul remnants and not the entire dragon soul. But through years of nourishment, the dragon soul had become stronger and stronger gradually.

As Shi Xingyun’s dragon soul, Nascent Soul and Cosmic Form combined with the Immortal Dragon City, she jerked slightly along with the Immortal Dragon City. As the Immortal Dragon City floundered, it started to resemble a huge dragon.

The bricks on the city wall seemed to become the scales of the dragon. The city wall and dragon body flashed continuously in a bright radiance and appeared alternately.

The Immortal Dragon City sounded with a roar, which sounded like a gentle roar of a dragon.

The Earth Dragon King growled ferociously suddenly, “You are the reincarnation of the soul remnants of King Jin?!”

King Jin, or also known as Celestial Dragon Jin, was the last offspring of the First Dragon and Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning. When Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning was pregnant with her, her life was sought after by the First Emperor of the human clan, Emperor Shi.

Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning managed to send her premature daughter, King Jin, away. After that, Emperor Jue started a massacre out of fury and Emperor Shi perished in his hands.

As King Jin was prematurely born, her body was very weak. She managed to survive due to the protection of her father, but she was also left with critical injuries after the huge war with the human clan.

Besides King Jin, the rest of the offspring of the First Dragon and Ancestral Dragon perished during the long eras of the Antiquity Age and Primordial Age.

But because King Jin was prematurely born before Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning passed on, her connection with the Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning was the most mysterious and unpredictable.

But no one would have expected that King Jin’s soul remnants still remained after so many years after she had died.

Shi Yu looked at Zhu Yi calmly and said, “A hundred years ago, I found this soul remnant in an alternate plane of space. I took it out and used a secret spell to seal it.”

“The Immortal Dragon City is no longer the remains of the Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning. It’s true that cultivating it with a dragon soul can achieve outstanding effects. But if the dragon soul is into a human and this human can cultivate till the Immortal Soul Stage, a far greater impact can be achieved than just the presence of a pure dragon soul.”

“Hence, I removed its memories and turned it into a human. She also thought that she was just a reincarnation of a pure dragon soul, but didn’t knew of her intricate connection with the Immortal Dragon City.” Shi Yu looked at Shi Xingyun who was slowly infusing with the Immortal Dragon City. “It’s just that there’s bound to be many mysteries as a dragon soul turns into human. Even I can’t tell the smallest of changes in her soul.”

“Now it seems like you are afraid that Xingyun has recovered her memories?”

The Immemorial Celestial Dragon that looked like a projection said, “Not for too long.”

Shi Yu said, “I wanted to wait for you to reach the Immortal Soul Stage first before we carry out this ritual. But the situation is critical now, thus I have no choice but to carry it out now. Although the effects will not be as great as expected, it can alleviate the crisis we are facing now.”

Shi Xingyun remained calm. When Shi Yu summoned her over from the Barren Expanses so hurriedly, she already developed an ominous feeling. But since Shi Yu had everything planned out and there were even Immortal Soul Second Level cultivators from the Great Qin Empire to escort her, she did not go against his instructions.

Although Shi Yu could not see through her entirely because of changes in her soul, he was entirely aware of everything that she did outside.

Right now, she was only a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. She had a noble status and was also a part of the royal family of the Great Qin Empire.

But now, her presage had been fulfilled.

Shi Yu said slowly, “If you were the soul of Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning, doing this might resurrect you in a new body. But this does not apply with King Jin. After all, they are one level apart.”

The Earth Dragon King and Azure Sky Dragon King stared at Shi Yu and roared in unison. Their brutal dragon might surrounded void space and was exerted towards Shi Yu.

Shi Yu looked at them and remained calm, “If the both of you didn’t force my hand, I could have wait for the prime opportunity to do this. Things will be more complete then and the Immortal Dragon City will overtake the Imperial Palace of Emperor Tai as the top treasure of human emperors. It’ll also have greater potential to develop in the future too.”

“Although it’s still incomplete now, it’s sufficient to deal with the problems that the both of you have caused.”

Shi Yu conjured spells with both his hands. A huge number of talismans turned into flowing lights and infused within the Immortal Dragon City.

The projections of dragons disappeared gradually while the city wall became thicker too. A stronger and more majestic aura spread from within and the entire Immortal Dragon City was glowing.

Besides the unwavering, indestructible and the defensive power concepts that it encompassed, the Immortal Dragon City also revealed a royal might. It’s as if it was the ruler of the Heavens.

Shi Yu’s vision was no longer fixed on the Earth Dragon King or the Azure Sky Drgon King anymore. Rather, he turned to Zhu Yi and saw that Zhu Yi combined with the Higan Golden Bridge. The golden light giant that was formed lowered his head and looked at Shi Yu.

“Today’s battle won’t be settled so easily. Unless your Master is here, I fear that it’ll be difficult to determine the victor.” Shi Yu said, “I know that your relationship with Xingyun is not shallow. But everything has been set the moment she turned into a human. It’s also greatly connected to the fate of the Great Qin Empire.”

“She recovered her memories, but she’s kept it a secret all this while. Besides the state of affairs that I can control, Xingyun did also harbor the thought of re-cultivating the Immortal Dragon City and use the body of the Ancestral Dragon Cang Ning to re-create herself. The rebirth of the Ancestral Dragon is not a small matter. Zhu Yi, you’ve always been an understanding person. I’m sure you know the consequences of doing this.”

After Shi Yu finished speaking, he did not mutter anymore words and let Zhu Yi decide for himself. He conjured spells with both his hands and 5 light dragons gathered in front of him. Slowly, they solidified to form a golden Dao fruit.

This golden Dao Fruit descended and sank into the Immortal Dragon City.

Zhu Yi focused his gaze, as if he was pondering over something.

Whereas the Earth Dragon King and Azure Dragon King both seemed to be enraged now. They attacked towards Zhu Yi and Shi Yu!

The battle between both parties ensued outside of the Barren Expanses. They came to blows in boundless void space. And above the Barren Expanses right now, patches and patches of auspicious clouds covered the sky.

Some of these auspicious clouds raged with intense fire while some were pulsating with lightning. While they seemed to be floating in the sky, they were actually moving rapidly.

On the ground, there were many human cultivators who managed to escape from the slit in the sea of fire converted from the Blazing Flames Dragon King’s Auspicious Clouds. They were all running for their lives towards the passageway between the Divine Lands and the Barren Expanses.

These cultivators were mostly in the Nascent Soul Stage. They could break apart space to escape, but they were much slower as compared to the dragons with the original true spirit.

Patches and patches of Auspicious Clouds flew in the sky and intercepted them at the front. These Dragon Awe Auspicious Clouds all belonged to Dragon Kings.

But these Dragon Kings did not stop. They continued to advance forward towards the opening of the two worlds. Over there, the Hou Ning Dragon King was engaged in a furious battle with Prince Gunyang, Shi Zongmao, as well as the Great Qin Empire cultivators that were guarding the opening of the passageway.

A terrifying undulation of mana came from the back, which left the Extreme Tooth Dragon King uncomfortable. He subtly realized that human reinforcements were arriving. And those who were coming to reinforce were even beyond the Immortal Soul Third Level.

Although the Extreme Tooth Dragon King and the others were worried, they did not turn back. Rather, they continued to proceed towards the battlefield where the Hou Ning Dragon King was at. That was where they did their job.

But before these human cultivators could catch their breath, dragons with the Demon Soul and in the Demon Lord stage blocked their escape route.

Unlike these exhausted human cultivators who just escaped, the dragons were filled with energy and even outnumbered the humans.

Against such opponents, the humans were in a dejected state even though there were no Dragon Kings with the Undying Demon Soul.

Dragon roars filled the sky and seemed to signal the start of another blood bath
