Chapter 261
Inside the Huai Dragon Palace, many true immortal dragon descendants were filled with fear.
After overcoming their initial confusion, these dragon descendants also realized that the being attacking them was very likely a Tribulation Immortal King.
If not a Tribulation Immortal King, who could effortlessly suppress dozens of true immortal dragon descendants and the palace master of Huai Dragon Palace, a half-step Immortal King who had passed the tribulation of the physical body?
If not a Tribulation Immortal King, who could ignore the core water veins of the Nine Rivers Domain, treat the Huai Dragon Palace, which spanned a million miles, as a toy, and hold it in their palm?
"Palace Master, when did we offend an Immortal King?"
"Yeah, Palace Master, what exactly happened?"
"A Tribulation Immortal King, such an existence, why would they attack ants like us?"
One by one, the true immortal dragon descendants looked at the Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace in fear and asked.
Although they were all trapped inside the Huai Dragon Palace and couldn't get out, basic communication was still possible.
The Palace Master's face was gloomy, scanning the many panic-stricken true immortal dragon descendants.Her brows couldn't help but furrow tightly.
How could she know when the Huai Dragon Palace offended a Tribulation Immortal King?
Although the Huai Dragon Palace acted domineeringly, they knew who not to offend. Those who might have an Immortal King backing them or influential forces, they would never offend, and would even serve well.
"Which Immortal King is it?"
Although the Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace was also terrified, she realized that fear was meaningless. If the Immortal King really wanted to kill them, none of the dragon descendants could survive.
"Hmm?"
The Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace looked up outside the Huai Dragon Palace.
At a glance, she saw the massive figure overlooking them.
The Huai Dragon Palace, spanning a million miles, was only one-tenth the size of the opponent's palm. Compared to this huge figure, the Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace was insignificantly small, unable to even see the full picture of Lin Yuan.
"This should be the Immortal King who attacked my Huai Dragon Palace." The Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace was certain.
Other true immortal dragon descendants also saw Lin Yuan, but due to the close distance, they couldn't see the full picture, only confirming that this Immortal King had a human form.
Having a human form didn't necessarily mean he was human.
"Great Immortal King, all beings of my Huai Dragon Palace are willing to submit." The Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace immediately said respectfully.
She understood that the fate of the entire Huai Dragon Palace depended on the whim of this mysterious Immortal King.
"Submit?"
Lin Yuan smiled slightly.
Then he looked at Cangqing Immortal beside him, "What do you think?"
"What do I think?" Cangqing Immortal trembled, not knowing why Lin Yuan was asking him at this moment.
"Is that…"
The Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace looked aside and immediately saw Cangqing Immortal.
Although in their eyes at this moment, Cangqing Immortal was also a giant, the distance was much farther, and they could roughly see his appearance.
"It's Cangqing?"
The Palace Master's heart turned cold.
The Huai Dragon Palace had been fighting with the Daoist Immortal Sect for so many years, and Cangqing Immortal knew her very well. Naturally, she was also very familiar with Cangqing Immortal.
However, the more familiar she was, the more despair she felt.
The enmity between the Huai Dragon Palace and the Daoist Immortal Sect was too great. They had been killing each other for hundreds of thousands of years, with countless subordinates dying.
Now that the Huai Dragon Palace had fallen into the hands of Cangqing Immortal, how could there be any good outcome?
"Forget it."
"I'll decide."
Lin Yuan noticed that Cangqing Immortal didn't dare to make a decision and moved his mind slightly.
The Huai Dragon Palace in his palm immediately began to collapse. All matter, whether living or non-living, was turned into the most primal essence.
Finally, it formed a thumb-sized essence pill.
The essence pill refined from all the dragon descendants, including the Palace Master, a half-step Immortal King who had passed the physical body tribulation, and the Huai Dragon Palace itself, even had a negligible effect on Lin Yuan.
Although Cangqing Immortal didn't dare to make a decision, Lin Yuan could sense his thoughts.
That was to eliminate future troubles completely.
Moreover, the Huai Dragon Palace had a significant causal connection with Jun Dongjin. The former had severely injured the latter, reducing his chances of breaking through to the Dao Fusion Stage.
Therefore, Lin Yuan had no intention of sparing the Huai Dragon Palace.
"The Huai Dragon Palace is gone."
Cangqing Immortal was stunned, not out of pity or sympathy, but because a lineage that had been passed down for millions of years had ended in such a dramatic scene.
"The strength of the Martial Ancestor..." Cangqing Immortal cautiously glanced at Lin Yuan's back, his heart trembling even more.
A Tribulation Immortal King is supreme. If an Immortal King attacked the Huai Dragon Palace, they could indeed do what Lin Yuan did.
Breaking through heavy barriers and grabbing the entire Huai Dragon Palace.
Many descriptions collected by the Daoist Immortal Sect about Tribulation Immortal Kings could confirm this point.
But the premise was that the Tribulation Immortal King was near the Huai Dragon Palace, not too far away. Only at close range could the Immortal King's strength be fully exerted.
The farther the distance, the more the power of the same strike would dissipate. Not to mention that Lin Yuan, separated by two major domains, easily captured the entire Huai Dragon Palace, which involved not just the problem of distance.
But also the insight into the essence of heaven and earth and the mastery of spatial mysteries.
In short, Lin Yuan's strength seemed to exceed the normal limits of what a Tribulation Immortal King could do.
The Palace Master of Huai Dragon Palace never knew that she and the entire Huai Dragon Palace had instantly crossed billions of miles to reach the Martial Temple, so she thought Lin Yuan was a Tribulation Immortal King.
But Cangqing Immortal saw it clearly. The Huai Dragon Palace, originally located in the Nine Rivers Domain, was easily captured by Lin Yuan.
"The little guy from back then, seeing him again, not only has he become an Immortal King, but also among the Immortal Kings, he can be considered..."
Cangqing Immortal was filled with emotion, not knowing how to describe Lin Yuan.
Whether ordinary Immortal Kings or supreme Immortal Kings, for him, there wasn't much difference, as they were all unattainable beings.
"Regarding the destruction of the Huai Dragon Palace, just report it truthfully." Lin Yuan said calmly.
This meant there was no need to hide that the mysterious Immortal King who destroyed the Huai Dragon Palace was the Martial Ancestor.
Lin Yuan decided this after careful consideration. With his current strength, there was no need to hide his identity.
Showing some of his strength had many benefits.
First, it could greatly promote the martial arts cultivation system.
Encouraging more cultivators to embark on the path of martial arts.
A cultivation system whose top combat power was true immortals was entirely different from one whose top combat power was Immortal Kings.
Lin Yuan, as the Martial Ancestor, standing shoulder to shoulder with Tribulation Immortal Kings, proved that martial arts was also a path to heaven.
Secondly, Lin Yuan had always wanted to connect with other Tribulation Immortal Kings in the Spirit Realm, but these Immortal Kings were either nowhere to be found or too far away.
Since that was the case, Lin Yuan displayed his strength to attract those Immortal Kings.
"Yes." Cangqing Immortal replied respectfully.
Spreading the word was not difficult for the Daoist Immortal Sect.
The destruction of the Huai Dragon Palace caused a huge uproar throughout the entire Dongyun Dao State, and even nearby Dao States were shaken by this event.
It wasn't that the Huai Dragon Palace had great influence. In fact, even if the Huai Dragon Palace obtained the Celestial Water, it would still be difficult to compete with the core forces of a Dao State.
The reason the destruction of the Huai Dragon Palace caused such a stir was entirely because the being who destroyed it was almost certainly a Tribulation Immortal King.
The appearance of a Tribulation Immortal King could indeed shake multiple Dao States, triggering discussions like a tsunami.
"Which Immortal King did it?"
"I'm also curious. It's just the Huai Dragon Palace. An Immortal King could have just given the order, and I would have personally destroyed it. Why would an Immortal King do it themselves?"
"Finally, our Dongyun Dao State has another Immortal King."
In the Xuan King Domain, the Dongyun Dao State, and even other Dao States, countless true immortals were abuzz.
This was an Immortal King.
At the peak of the Dao Fusion Stage, a true immortal might hope to see one or two Immortal Kings after traveling through the three thousand Dao States for a long time.
As countless forces discussed the mysterious Immortal King's origin, a force named the Daoist Immortal Sect from the Xuan King Domain announced that the mysterious Immortal King who destroyed the Huai Dragon Palace was the Martial Ancestor of the Martial Temple.
This news spread like a hurricane.
The true identity of a Tribulation Immortal King was incredibly important information.
"The Martial Ancestor of the Martial Temple? I have some impression of the Martial Temple. It's a cultivation system focusing on forging the physical body. The strongest should be comparable to true immortals. Can this cultivation system produce an Immortal King?"
"Is this true? A Martial Temple confined to a city can have an Immortal King?"
"It shouldn't be fake. No matter how bold the Daoist Immortal Sect is, they wouldn't dare to lie about an Immortal King's identity, right?"
Although many true immortals doubted the information that the mysterious Immortal King came from the Martial Temple, they didn't dare to publicly refute it.
Are you kidding?
You might challenge other forces, and they wouldn't care much because of the distance, but challenging an Immortal King… no matter how far you run, you can't escape an Immortal King's wrath.
"I must go to the Xuan King Domain to visit the Martial Ancestor. This is an existence comparable to an Immortal King."
"I'm going too. If the Martial Ancestor agrees to take me as a disciple, I'm willing to abandon my current cultivation and follow the path of martial arts."
"Taking you as a disciple? Look at yourself in the mirror. That's an Immortal King-level figure, and you think they would take you as a disciple?"
Many true immortals from dozens of nearby Dao States started heading towards the Dongyun Dao State.
At the peak of the Dao Fusion Stage, a true immortal hoping to see an Immortal King might do so through this kind of opportunity when an Immortal King shows themselves in a certain place.
Compared to these true immortals, countless lower-level cultivators were even more excited.
"The martial arts cultivation system can also produce Immortal King-level figures?"
"Just as I suspected, my spiritual roots are not great, and my potential in the immortal path is limited. I've decided to go to the Martial Temple to seek a master."
"Yes, with an Immortal King in the martial arts system, becoming a martial arts cultivator is much better than joining those other forces. Most of them have never produced an Immortal King."
Martial Temple.
Many martial arts cultivators were bewildered.
"What? Our Martial Ancestor not only returned but also became an Immortal King and destroyed the Huai Dragon Palace effortlessly?"
"This... this…"
Many newly joined cultivators felt like happiness had fallen from the sky.
Initially, joining the Martial Temple meant they couldn't compete with disciples from the Daoist Immortal Sect or the Xuan King Palace, but now, those disciples might come to fawn over them instead.
Outside Xiaoyao City.
Jun Haiqiu, Jun Nangong, and Jun Yunxun, three outstanding juniors of the Jun family, finally arrived at Xiaoyao City.
"Our ancestor Wujie has become an Immortal King?"
The three of them looked at each other. They were not like Cangqing Immortal, who had come from the Daoist Immortal Sect to Xiaoyao City in a short time.
They heard the news that the Martial Ancestor had become an Immortal King on the way.
"Our ancestor Wujie disappeared for hundreds of thousands of years, and upon reappearing, he is an Immortal King? It feels like a dream."
The three Jun family juniors felt the sudden and intense happiness was overwhelming.
They had thought their ancestor would be strong, given the legends they had grown up hearing, but they only imagined he would be similar to Cangqing Immortal.
An Immortal King?
They hadn't even considered it.
If becoming an Immortal King was so easy, the three thousand Dao States wouldn't have so few Immortal Kings.
"Will our ancestor Wujie, now an Immortal King, not want to see us?" Jun Haiqiu hesitated.
That was an Immortal King.
High above.
Overlooking the three thousand Dao States.
"No matter what, he is still our ancestor. Let's go visit him first." Jun Nangong hesitated for a moment, then decided. They were already at Xiaoyao City, even if they couldn't see him, they had to try.
In the Fourth Heaven.
An old man in a purple robe suddenly stopped.
He glanced at the location of the Dongyun Dao State below.
"I didn't expect a fellow Daoist to be born in such a remote Dao State…" The purple-robed old man was also a Tribulation Immortal King.
The Spirit Realm was vast, and Tribulation Immortal Kings were extremely rare. It was hard to meet a fellow Daoist, so the purple-robed old man naturally wanted to visit.
"The Martial Ancestor… never heard of this title. I guess it's a newly ascended Immortal King?"
The purple-robed old man speculated.
Those powerful Immortal Kings, like the Supreme Immortal Kings, were known throughout the three thousand Dao States, and even other Immortal Kings had to show enough respect.
The Martial Ancestor?
The purple-robed old man considered himself well-informed and well-connected, but he had never heard of such an Immortal King.
So he reasonably assumed this Martial Ancestor had recently ascended to the Tribulation stage.
Swish.
The purple-robed old man instantly arrived outside Xiaoyao City, stopping on a distant mountaintop.
"Let me see what the demeanor of this newly ascended Immortal King is like?" The purple-robed old man's eyes faintly gleamed with purple light.
After entering the Tribulation stage, an Immortal King's presence begins to affect the surroundings, even connecting with the Spirit Realm, revealing some "aura."
This kind of aura has no specific form and is hard to observe, but the purple-robed old man practiced a secret technique that allowed him to somewhat capture this Immortal King's aura.
"If it's a newly ascended Immortal King, the aura shouldn't be significant. Those veteran Immortal Kings, even the Supreme Immortal Kings, their mere aura can stir the Nine Heavens…"
The purple-robed old man thought while observing the location of Xiaoyao City.
In the Tribulation stage, the longer one cultivates and the stronger they become, the more they unconsciously influence their surroundings, resulting in a more terrifying Immortal King's aura.
Nearly resembling some "wonders" or "visions" in the Nine Heavens.
Through the Immortal King's aura, one can also judge the strength of the Immortal King to some extent.
"What?!!"
The more the purple-robed old man observed, the more his expression changed, ultimately showing shock.
