Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Heaven and Earth Sect

Three months, or even a year.

Long Ao could still accept that. After three months, or perhaps a year, the Fire Qilin’s injuries would be completely healed, and it would return to its Peak state.

As for the family, Long Fu had just said that once the Divine Pill was refined, everyone in the family could have their Realm increase tenfold. What did that even mean?

"Master, there is a way to speed up the Refinement of the Divine Pill."

"What is it?"

"The Divine Dragon Pearl."

The Divine Dragon Pearl?

Hearing Long Fu suggest using the Divine Dragon Pearl to refine the Divine Pill, Long Ao was quite surprised. Although Long Qiang had obtained the Divine Dragon Pearl, he had never been able to refine it. Otherwise, Long Qiang’s Cultivation would surely have seen a massive boost.

Because of this, Long Ao was very curious. He didn’t know what Long Fu intended to do to use the Divine Dragon Pearl to refine this so-called Divine Pill.

"Master, do you know why Long Qiang has never been able to refine the Divine Dragon Pearl?"

He shook his head. Long Ao truly didn’t know the reason.

Long Ao was no fool. Since Long Fu had brought it up, he must know the reason. Excitement stirred in Long Ao’s heart. All this time, Long Qiang had been unable to refine the Divine Dragon Pearl, making his possession of it meaningless.

"Master, the Divine Dragon Pearl carries a restriction placed by the previous Dragon God. So, for the little guy to refine the Divine Dragon Pearl, he must first overcome this restriction."

"Long Fu, you mean you want to use the Divine Dragon Pearl to refine the Divine Pill, and at the same time, use the Divine Pill to break the restriction on the Divine Dragon Pearl?"

"Exactly. Killing two birds with one stone."

"In that case, let’s start immediately."

"Master, I can’t do this. But there is someone who can."

"Who?"

"Your ancestor, Long Batian."

Without asking further, Long Ao immediately left the Sect and headed for the family estate. He already understood what Long Fu meant. After all, his ancestor Long Batian was a sixth-reincarnation Celestial Divine Martial Artist. If his ancestor was willing to help, the matter would become much easier.

Just as he stepped into the family estate, Long Ao was summoned by his grandfather, Long Haoshi.

Inside the secret chamber.

Looking at his grandfather, Long Ao was very curious. According to their ancestor, his grandfather would need at least a month to come out of seclusion. By then, he would be a genuine Great Emperor Martial Artist.

But what about now?

Less than ten days had passed, yet his grandfather had already emerged. ’What on earth is going on?’

As if guessing his grandson’s thoughts, Long Haoshi smiled and said, "Ao’Er, with the ancestor’s help this time, I’ve successfully completed the Refinement of the Divine Dao Inheritance. Although I haven’t broken through to the Divine Dao Realm yet, the ancestor has said that at this rate, I will definitely become a Divine Dao Martial Artist in one year at the soonest, or three years at the latest."

Hearing his grandfather’s words, although Long Ao had already guessed it, he couldn’t help but feel overjoyed. It came down to the same point: once his grandfather achieved the Divine Dao, the family would have its first Divine Dao Martial Artist.

Whether or not a family had a Divine Dao Martial Artist was incredibly important.

One could say that once a family had a Divine Dao Martial Artist, it could completely dominate Kyushu. As for the Four Great Forces, they would have no choice but to step aside.

"Grandpa, there’s one thing I don’t understand. The ancestor told me before that you wouldn’t come out of seclusion for another month. Why now?"

"It’s simple. The ancestor used his own power to forcibly speed up the process for me."

Nodding, Long Ao instantly understood the ancestor’s intention. It was simply to help him.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the ancestor must have known that he was about to go to war with the Four Great Forces. Forcibly helping his grandfather break through to the Great Emperor Realm ahead of schedule was all for his sake.

Long Ao felt very grateful to his ancestor. He asked, "Grandpa, I’m sure you know about the situation between the Sect and the Four Great Forces. Do you think we should go to war now?"

The Long Family and the Dragon Sect. To outsiders, they might seem like two separate entities. But everyone in both the Dragon Sect and the Long Family knew clearly that there was no distinction between them.

"Ao’Er, you’re being too hasty. The Four Great Forces already had a falling out because of the Beast Tide. If nothing unexpected happens, I believe they will surely fight to the death. At that point, our Dragon Sect can just come out and reap the benefits."

Nodding, Long Ao very much agreed with his grandfather. He had indeed been too impatient this time. However, thinking about the last Beast Tide, Long Ao was filled with rage and wished he could annihilate the Four Great Forces immediately.

"Grandpa, what should we do now then?"

Experience comes with age. Long Ao would naturally not make the decision alone. Otherwise, the Dragon Sect wouldn’t have been able to develop to its current state.

Long Haoshi thought for a moment and said, "Ao’Er, why don’t we try retreating in order to advance?"

"Grandpa, what do you mean by ’retreating in order to advance’?"

"Ao’Er, the main reason the Four Great Forces have joined forces this time is to target you. Therefore, as long as you disappear, I believe the Four Great Forces will turn on each other and lose interest in dealing with the Dragon Sect."

Long Ao instantly understood his grandfather’s meaning.

"Grandpa, I know what to do."

"Ao’Er, your plan must be flawless. Otherwise, if the Four Great Forces see through your intentions, not only will it be completely useless, it might even backfire."

"Yes."

"Alright, I know you came back for a reason. Go on."

After bidding his grandfather farewell, Long Ao immediately sensed his ancestor’s aura and appeared inside the mountain cave.

"Ao’Er, you came to see me for something?"

Nodding, Long Ao first said, "Ancestor, Grandpa has already broken through to the Great Emperor Realm. I’ve come to find you this time mainly for the matter of the Divine Dragon Pearl and the Divine Pill."

Before Long Batian could speak, Long Ao continued, "Ancestor, do you know Ye Dugu?"

"Why do you suddenly bring this person up?"

Long Ao didn’t hide anything from his ancestor, recounting everything that had happened, from beginning to end, including his two encounters with Ye Dugu.

Long Ao was no fool. Seeing his ancestor’s expression, he knew for sure that the ancestor recognized Ye Dugu. A flicker of joy ignited in his heart; he hoped to learn about Ye Dugu’s identity from him.

"Ao’Er, you want to know Ye Dugu’s identity?"

"Yes, Ancestor. To be honest, the Divine Pill that Ye Dugu gave me before has a hidden catch. I suspect he’s plotting something. And someone who can create ninety-nine Ninety-Nine-Heaven Celestial Ladders can’t be simple. So, Ancestor, I want to ask, who exactly is Ye Dugu?"

"Ao’Er, Ye Dugu is one of the most powerful beings in all of Heaven and Earth, second only to the Celestial Dao. He is the Sect Leader of the Heaven and Earth Sect."

Ye Dugu, the Sect Leader of the Heaven and Earth Sect?

At this moment, Long Ao finally knew Ye Dugu’s identity. He was the renowned Sect Leader of the Heaven and Earth Sect.
