Chapter 923: Chapter 949: Yang Zhen Drills a Hole! Scolding Dragon Evolves! (One More) Chapter 923: Chapter 949: Yang Zhen Drills a Hole! Scolding Dragon Evolves! (One More) Watching the formidable dragon dive into the pond and seemingly having no intention of coming out, Yang Zhen felt somewhat troubled.
Nether State’s land had just begun its formation, and various forces were reshuffling, with more and more people joining the Great Nether Dynasty. Yang Zhen couldn’t just wait around; he would need to cross the vast realm and bring back Lu Chenghui and the others in order to rebuild the Shangyuan Sect.
It’s true that the half of White Cloud Mountain where Lu Chenghui and the others were located was originally the foundation of Shangyuan Sect, but things were different now.
Not to mention the presence of a dragon that no one dared to provoke, the Sky Spring Queyang Array that Yang Zhen had laid down had already made this half of White Cloud Mountain one of the wealthiest existences on Nether State Continent.
As long as Shangyuan Sect could withstand this reshuffling of forces that came with the opening of heaven and earth, it was only a matter of time before it developed further.
With the Sky Spring here, the Heaven and Earth Qi was already sufficient for practitioners to cultivate at a rapid speed. If some disciples with decent talents could be found, the development speed of Shangyuan Sect would astonish everyone.
However, at this stage, most disciples with good talents had almost all been scouted by the Great Nether Dynasty, and for Shangyuan Sect to find talented disciples was a long and arduous task.
A long and arduous task though it might be, a solution must be found; otherwise, it would be a disservice to the grand stage Yang Zhen had set up. The concentration of Heaven and Earth Qi throughout the White Cloud Mountain Range was several times more dense than that of the Great Nether Dynasty. If word got out, it would attract a large number of people with ulterior motives.
The arrival of the formidable dragon was unexpected, so Yang Zhen planned to stay for a while longer before heading off to the Westernmost Land of the Great Nether Dynasty in search of Lu Chenghui and the rest. Should he leave and the dragon suddenly went berserk, who could manage such a behemoth?
After sharing his thoughts with Gou Shengtian, Gou Shengtian was overjoyed and of course agreed readily. With Yang Zhen in Shangyuan Sect, it had a backbone. By now, Yang Zhen’s cultivation level and realm had far surpassed Gou Shengtian. The thought of Yang Zhen leaving made Gou Shengtian feel waves of headaches and fever.
The group sat down by the pool, discussing both the dragon incident and future plans for the development of Shangyuan Sect.
Gou Shengtian spoke with a pained expression, “Now Shangyuan Sect lacks no cultivating resources, but with the Great Nether Dynasty ahead, if we broadly recruit disciples, not to mention whether it would displease the Great Nether Dynasty, even if they turned a blind eye, we would not be able to recruit high-quality disciples.”
The Five Wheel Heavenly Lord glared and said, “This matter cannot be rushed. Currently, there are countless independent practitioners in Nether State Continent. The Great Nether Dynasty has its limits—how many can they recruit? As long as you search among the remaining group for some disciples with slightly stronger talents, their future achievements will not fall short of those in the Great Nether Dynasty.”
The Upper Crow Heavenly Lord also chimed in with encouragement, nodding and saying, “What Five Wheel is saying is true.”
Yang Zhen also felt at a loss about the situation. As he was about to express his thoughts, a loud splash startled everyone. They hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound.
Water exploded from within the pool, frightening waves surged toward the sky and then crashed onto the ground with a splash. Practitioners nearby scrambled to dodge, but they couldn’t escape completely and got drenched. It was unclear if it was water that erupted from the spring or water spat on them by the dragon.
This wasn’t the concern of the crowd; even if it was spit out, who would dare to spit back?
“Not good!”
The wretched cat exclaimed, being the first to rush out. As it ran, it suddenly felt something was off, looked back, and was dumbstruck.
The formidable dragon had sprung out of the water, shaken off the water from its body, and suddenly appeared lively and energetic. Even its fur had dried astonishingly fast, spotless and without a single drop of water on it.
For some reason, seeing the dragon again, Yang Zhen noticed the fur on the dragon appeared even smoother, looking just like a tiger with no noticeable difference from before, nothing like the fierce and violent creature covered in scales.
“Damn it, there’s no justice in this. This bastard has actually evolved,” said the wretched cat, staring curiously at the dragon before them, murmuring incredulously.
Yang Zhen was stunned and asked in amazement, “No wonder it feels different from before. Can the dragon actually evolve?”
The wretched cat nodded and said, “Among the myriad creatures of heaven and earth, except for the unevolving humanity, other demons, spirit beasts, and even magical beasts can evolve. The direction of evolution is uncertain, and clearly, after fighting with the Qiongqi Heavenly Void, this dragon has evolved in its direction.”
Yang Zhen gazed at the dragon, his face full of astonishment, and said, “The dragon, after all, is a dragon, shouldn’t it be more noble than creatures like Qiongqi?”
Hearing this, the wretched cat cocked its mouth and rolled its eyes at Yang Zhen, saying, “Qiongqi is an ancient creature, and although the dragon is a branch of dragons, it’s not the most pure-blooded lineage. To be able to evolve in the direction of Qiongqi is commendable. Now it possesses the bloodline of a giant dragon, coupled with its evolution direction. Who knows, perhaps in the future it might evolve into an existence even more noble than both the giant dragon and Qiongqi.”
Yang Zhen groaned with interest, his eyes gleaming as he sized up Chilong, growing more satisfied the more he looked.
This guy, both in appearance and strength, was a top choice, making him an excellent choice for a guardian beast of Shangyuan Sect.
Of course, this all depended on Chilong’s own willingness; otherwise, who could forcibly keep it around?
At that moment, Chilong suddenly let out a low growl, approached Yang Zhen, and took him in from head to toe. Amidst everyone’s uncertain gazes, it nudged Yang Zhen with its enormous head.
Yang Zhen was flabbergasted and watched Chilong in astonishment, asking perplexedly, “Buddy, what’s with all the nudging? What are you trying to say?”
Chilong let out a muffled moo, looking at Yang Zhen with a hint of urging.
Yang Zhen laid his hand on Chilong’s head, felt for a while, and asked with a puzzled face, “Do you want me to take out the Emperor Treasure?”
Chilong snorted, its face showing a trace of excitement; Yang Zhen had guessed right.
Seeing this scene, everyone inhaled sharply. The cheap cat’s eyes widened in astonishment as it said, “Is it this guy turning smart, or have you gone weird?”
Yang Zhen kicked the cheap cat away; that damned mouth never had much good to say.
Now that he knew what Chilong wanted, the rest was easy.
Inside the giant mountain guarded by Chilong, the Emperor Treasure that Yang Zhen found contained an overwhelming Emperor’s Qi. Although he still didn’t know what it was for, it certainly couldn’t be brought out casually into the open.
Even the Great Nether Dynasty, so arrogant in its own power, dared not claim that the Emperor Treasure was with them, let alone Shangyuan Sect, which couldn’t even fend for itself now?
After pondering for a moment, Yang Zhen’s eyes brightened, and he said to everyone and Chilong, “Follow me!”
Minds stirred, the crowd followed Yang Zhen toward the highest peak of White Cloud Mountain.
The highest peak of White Cloud Mountain was not within Shangyuan Sect because it was so barren at first that not even a bird would land here. It was only after the world began that it started to rise majestically; now it was lush and verdant, with such rich Heaven and Earth Qi that Yang Zhen himself fancied settling down here.
This place was the best location for the future main hall of Shangyuan Sect and naturally also the perfect place to store the Emperor Treasure.
After reaching the mountaintop, Yang Zhen took a deep breath and told everyone, “Wait for me up in the sky!”
“Wait… up in the sky?” The crowd was taken aback and looked at Yang Zhen with puzzled expressions, asking, “What are you planning to do?”
Yang Zhen grinned and, looking at the mist-shrouded, lush forest, said, “Dig a hole!”
Having said that, before the crowd could respond, Yang Zhen leapt into the air.
Seeing this, the crowd, although filled with doubts, hastily followed Yang Zhen into the air to await his next move.
Yang Zhen glanced at Chilong, slowly making its way through midair, lay back, and in an instant, fell from the sky, causing an outcry.
Boom——!
Yang Zhen’s figure disappeared atop the great mountain, leaving behind a series of vertical black holes.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, utterly stunned by Yang Zhen’s sudden move.
