Chapter 317: Chaotic Times Approach, Arriving At Dragon God Island



Chapter 317: Chaotic Times Approach, Arriving At Dragon God Island

Middle Ground, inside some dark abyss...

It was seldom daylight here. A person could not see their own hand even when held up right in front of their eyes.

The entire abyss was filled with an energy that left a lingering fear in a person’s heart.

Even the bravest warrior would shiver in fear standing before this abyss. He wouldn’t even dare to look down.

But in this dark abyss’ deepest recesses was a dazzling golden temple, which radiated with magnificent Buddhist light.

The Buddhist light shone in that massive abyss, like a flame in the darkness.

A pity that the darkness was just too thick and too all-encompassing. It completely engulfed the Buddhist light, such that it was unable to be transmitted out.

This supreme Buddhist temple was sunk deep under.

Opposite this temple was a small palace made of a special black metal.

The images of malicious demons were carved into the palace’s beams and eaves, exuding a powerful aura.

Beside these two buildings was another nondescript mansion.

This mansion combined both evil and Buddha in one. On one side was the temple looking as majestic and holy as if the true Buddha himself was sitting inside. On the other side was the bizarrely evil and malicious palace. The contrast was striking.

The three buildings were in a triangular formation, with the Buddhist temple facing the evil palace. They were like mortal enemies.

And that weird mansion faced those two buildings as if maintaining a balance.

Inside the deep abyss, a chanting voice could be heard.

But this chanting sounded exceptionally bizarre. Its sequence was completely reversed.

Twisting the true meaning of the Buddha and going toward the devil!

It was clear that anyone who chanted this twisted version was a bold, supreme villain.

Otherwise, who would dare to challenge the way of Buddha? If found out, he would attract the wrath of Buddha.

...

Crack!

The chanting suddenly stopped.

That massive demon palace slowly opened, and a tall, burly man in devilish-looking armor walked out. He had a malevolent machete behind him, and he glowed with a demonic flame. The space around him was blurred by the flames, such that his true features could not be clearly seen.

“My past body actually fell in that desolate place in Eastern Wilderness.”

The demonic flame surged endlessly across the surface of the man before forming into multiple blades sticking straight out. He looked extremely domineering and malicious.

In such depths, every single piece of rock was of an unimaginable hardness.

But as the man moved across the abyss, all the surrounding rocks were completely dissipated by the flaming blades radiating from his body.

A long, deep slash appeared in the endless abyss. It was like the abyss had been sliced in half.

“A bunch of stupid little kids. They dare to steal my good luck? They don’t know the meaning of death!”

The man shot into the air and left the endless abyss. He traveled across tens of thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.

The ferocious, deviant aura radiating from his body merged into a thick cloud, blocking out all sunlight.

In a flash, it was like Armageddon had arrived.

The thick cloud spread outward. All living creatures’ blood essence and souls evaporated into pure demon essence and were absorbed by the cloud.

It was a bloody-curdling sight.

“What demonic presence is this? So wanton and malicious!”

The man’s bold, wilful behavior soon attracted the attention of the surrounding powerful practitioners.

The fabrics of space split open, and a dashing figure appeared before the man. Tens of thousands of Buddhist rays shone out.

The figure was dressed in a jeweled monk’s robe, with a powerful Buddha avatar shining behind his golden body. It was like the epitome of a Buddhist paradise had arrived.

“Om Mani Padme Hum!”

The monk chanted the ,great Buddhist Sanskrit’s words and the malevolent cloud was pierced by holy light. Life on earth flourished again.

“Evil being, how dare you act in such a willful, wicked way! I will exhibit the power of the temple guardian deity to suppress you for 10,000 years!”

The monk’s body expanded as he spoke, instantly morphing into a giant Buddha.

Surrounding the giant Buddha were demon-annihilating rods, vajra staffs, menacing knives, Bodhi rosary beads, and countless other Buddhist treasures.

Any one of those Buddhist treasures was enough to kill off a powerful demon beast.

It was clear that this was a truly formidable Sage monk.

Even amongst the major Buddhist forces, he would be considered a top practitioner. Powerful enough to lead a sect of his own.

...

Rumble!

The concerted roar of the Buddhist treasures was like rumbling thunder.

Countless living creatures across the earth bowed down their heads in respect.

However, the evil man continued to maintain an expression of arrogant contempt.

He sized up the Sage monk scornfully. “Little monk, you do have some skills. Hand over your Buddhist relics, and I will spare your life.”

The lips of the giant Buddha figure parted slightly. His voice was like thunder. “An evil creature like you dares to profane Buddha? You deserve to die!”

The giant Buddha reached out his right palm, and a Buddhist swastika symbol appeared. Then Buddhist light burst forth.

Countless Buddhist treasures were infused into that light. There was enough power to suppress a small world.

The supreme technique of the Buddhist sect—Buddha Land in Palm!

One would immediately fall into an endless reincarnation cycle if struck by this technique. Suppressed by the cleansing power of the Buddhist light, one could either convert or die.

Even the most powerful Sages seldom dared to face this technique head-on. Most of them would avoid it.

But faced with this technique, the evil man showed no signs of fear.

“Profane Buddha? Haha!” He sneered. “I have a deeper understanding of Buddhism than you!”

The man drew his demonic-looking machete.

A malevolent blood-red Buddha figure appeared behind the man. Two streaks of blood flowed down his eyes.

A strident Buddhist chanting echoed through the air as if the entire Buddhist land had fallen into destruction.

The moment their avatars collided, the giant Buddha looked shocked.

He realized that his technique was disintegrating.

The supreme Buddhist technique, “Buddha Land in Palm”, was being dispelled!

...

Rumble!

The technique collapsed, and all that was left was the blood-red flash created by the machete. It was an amazing yet terrifying sight.

When the red flash faded, there was no longer any Buddhist light left.

Two halves of a body fell from mid-air, golden blood trailing along. There was no stench of blood. Instead, there was a thick scent of sandalwood.

A rainbow surged out of the severed body across half the sky.

“Nirvana rainbow? You are indeed adept in the way of Buddha.” The man kept his machete with a satisfied look. “This kind of Buddhist relic is enough for me to cultivate a new body.”

A Buddhist relic flew out of the corpse straight into the palm of the man. He nodded in satisfaction before morphing into a streak of blood-red light and shooting away.

Not long after the man left, the fabric of space split open again, and multiple figures emerged.

They all possessed a faint divine glow. They were all Sages who had clearly undergone the lightning tribulation and successfully cultivated a divine aura.

“We are too late. The Sage monk has fallen.”

“How is that possible? The Sage monk’s Buddha Land in Palm is indomitable. Who could have killed him in such a short period of time?”

“This lingering blade aura... It is terrifying. It managed to counter the Sage monk’s technique in one strike and even chopped his golden body in half.”

“The person’s powers are definitely at least at the Great Sage Fifth Refinement Stage. And he has a very deep understanding of the Buddhist techniques.”

“If I am not wrong, the culprit must be one of the four great Evil Spirit Sect kings. And only one of them has exemplary blade skills and holds a deep understanding of Buddhist techniques. It looks like the Evil Spirit Sect has been revived.”

“The Evil Spirit Sect has been lying low for 10,000 years, but the Lifeless King has re-emerged in such a flashy manner. It looks like the five regions will be undergoing a major change soon.”

“Go to the Jixia Academy to seek out Fu Zi! If the Evil Spirit Sect is truly making a comeback, we must notify them to prepare for war.”

“Over the recent several hundred years, there has been a relatively high frequency of rare, talented prodigies emerging across the five regions. This in itself is a very strange phenomenon.”

“Before the world plunges into chaos, prodigies and demons emerge. It was the same 10,000 years ago.”

“These prodigies are all closely linked to this. They might be our greatest hope if calamity befalls us.”

...

In order to minimize public panic, news of the fall of the Sage monk in Middle Ground was contained.

Shen Tian had no idea that a powerful Sage practitioner had just emerged and was seeking him for revenge.

At present, he was happily about to raid yet another island!

Yes, Shen Tian, Qi Shaoxuan, and Ao Wu had already arrived at another island with a thick chaos aura.

However, they were not that lucky this time. The team waited for a full three months before the aura barrier opened. This island was situated even deeper inside the Chaotic Star Island domain than Kun Peng island. It radiated with an even more formidable force.

Even though the aura barrier had opened, Ao Wu was so suppressed that he nearly couldn’t make it through. He was only able to force his way through with Qi Shaoxuan’s and Shen Tian’s help.

It was worth mentioning that this island was far bigger than Kun Peng island. It was at least several thousand miles wide.

It was no exaggeration to say that this island was several times bigger than many countries on the mainland.

It might take more than several months time for the three of them to totally raid this island.

More importantly, compared to previous islands raided by Shen Tian and the rest, this island had a thicker Spirit Qi.

Dense jungles and mountain ranges covered the massive island, amongst which all sorts of exotic creatures hid.

Winged rabbits as white as snow, rainbow-colored deer, golden unicorns, and the mythical luan birds with long, hard feathers...

This island felt like a true otherworldly paradise. It was not at all tainted by the aura of any cultivator.

Of course, these exotic beasts may look very beautiful and cute, but as living creatures in the Chaotic Star Island domain’s inner regions, their battle prowess was terrifying.

After trying to snatch a carrot from a certain winged rabbit, said rabbit sent Ao Wu flying with a single kick.

If not for his powerful bloodline, he might have died from that kick.

Nonetheless, Ao Wu felt so aggrieved that he was hopping mad!

...

However, the most powerful being on this island was not those exotic creatures. It was the much more powerful Drake race.

Yes, Drakes. A powerful race that possessed the bloodline of a True Dragon!

There were many types of descendants from the main Dragon race.

Compared to the Black Dragon race on Black Dragon Island, the Drake race on this island did not possess any intelligence.

They were more like those western Dragons which Shen Tian used to watch in movie theaters in his previous life. They were extremely powerful and very violent.

The Red-Bearded Fire Dragon that controlled the power of volcanos was such an example. One sneeze from them could make a volcano erupt.

Or the Wind Lord Wyvern that harnessed the power of the wind. It could send mighty hurricane gales that could cut through anything.

There was also the King Kong Savage Dragon that could manipulate ground energies. Its entire body was covered by crystalline King Kong Spirit Stones and possessed an absolute defense.

As well as the Eight-Limbed Blue Dragon that could command the sea, the Gold Sacred Dragon that could harness the power of light, the Black Poison Dragon that had a complete mastery of all venoms, and so on.

These mighty Drakes dominated over this island. Most of the full-grown giant Dragons here were powerful enough to go head-to-head with a Heavenly Venerable.

Even Shen Tian and Qi Shaoxuan could feel the powerful and terrifying aura emanating from this island’s deeper regions. It was the suppressive aura of a Sage-level being.

This island even had beings that were more powerful than a Sage!

As a result, the trio, who had planned to boldly raid the island, became more cautious.

If faced with only one or two Heavenly Venerable-level giant Dragons, the trio could still hold themselves with the power of their pure dragon bloodline.

But there were at least 100 Heavenly Venerable-level giant Dragons on this island. And many of them possessed battle prowess that was even higher than that of a Heavenly Venerable.

Under such circumstances, it would be suicidal to be too bold and arrogant.

...

They had set up a presence concealing array inside their cave hideout.

The bonfire burned as they roasted a two-feet long wild rabbit.

This wild rabbit was very plump and juicy. Golden fat juices dripped down onto the fire.

The smell of roasting meat mixed with condiments swirled around the cave—very tempting.

“This should be the legendary Dragon God Island!” Ao Wu gnawed happily on a roasted rabbit wing. “I think I have read about this island in some ancient records.”

Yes, rabbit wing.

The rabbit being roasted was the very same winged rabbit that had nearly kicked Ao Wu to death.

This Dragon teenager was a really vengeful fellow!

It was worth mentioning that not only was the winged rabbit very powerful, but it could also sprint at extraordinary speed. It was as fast as lightning.

If not for Shen Tian’s Feather Immortal Metal and the Kun Peng Dao, he probably wouldn’t have been able to catch that rabbit.

The rabbit looked rather adorable and tasted even more delicious.

Shen Tian ate two rabbit thighs and felt warm and happy all over.

He took a sip of Divine Juice Wine and sprawled comfortably on the ground. Awesome!

With Ao Wu in the center, Shen Tian and Qi Shaoxuan lazed about on either side, rubbing their full bellies contentedly.

Qi Shaoxuan asked, “Dragon God Island? What a familiar name... Don’t tell me...”

As if he thought of something, Qi Shaoxuan’s face changed. “Don’t tell me this is that very island in the legends? Isn’t it supposed to have gone missing since eons ago?”

Ao Wu nodded. “According to the ancient records, Dragon God Island is situated in the deepest recesses of the Chaotic Star Island domain. It almost never appears.

“But this island holds a vast population of Δrakes. The amount of resources and fortuitous opportunities on this island is unimaginable.

“It was even rumored that the Black Dragon race originated from this Dragon God Island. We are the descendants of one of the Dragon races on this island.

“Of course, those are just rumors. No one can confirm.”

With that, Ao Wu gazed at Shen Tian admiringly. “We have been seeking this island over the past 10,000 years. But we have never found it.

“The last person to have visited this island was Grand-Aunt Ao Bing 10,000 years ago!

“Didn’t expect Brother Shen to be able to lead us to this Dragon God Island during your very first visit to this Chaotic Star Island domain. You are really great!”

Qi Shaoxuan, “???”

Come on, didn’t we find this Dragon God Island together?

Although Shen Tian did lead the way, maybe it was because of my good providence?

I also used to be the Son of Providence!

Well!

Qi Shaoxuan grumbled endlessly on the inside, but he wisely chose not to voice out his grievances. After all, ever since Shen Tian entered the Chaotic Star Island domain, every single island he targeted had been right on point.

The first time was Sea God’s Star Tear Island. The second was Kun Peng Island. And now was this Dragon God Island. His island-picking process was just too solid.

One could describe the island-picking process of a normal prodigy to a lady window-shopping. Browsing here and there, hesitating now and then whether to enter a certain shop.

But for Shen Tian, he was like a big boss buying something. He knew exactly what he wanted, and he just went for it.

Along the way, they had encountered some other exotic-looking islands, but Shen Tian had not even spared them a single glance.

Under such circumstances, it was no coincidence they found this Dragon God Island. Shen Tian already knew what he was looking for and where to find it.

Qi Shaoxuan had no idea how Shen Tian managed to find this long-lost Dragon God Island. Nonetheless, he decided to respect his privacy.

At the same time, he acknowledged that he was leveraging off Shen Tian.

Even a fool would know that this island, which was highly-revered by the Black Dragon race, definitely had amazing fortuitous opportunities here!

Finding this island under Shen Tian’s lead—he really owed him one!

...

Shen Tian had no idea what Qi Shaoxuan and Ao Wu were thinking. He had only one thing on his mind now. It was how to maximize the fortuitous opportunities here.

Shen Tian had already seen the biggest fortuitous opportunity present here on this island from the tops of Qi Shaoxuan and Ao Wu’s heads.

However, there were still over a dozen days to go before the full-moon night when that fortuitous opportunity would appear. Till then, the other fortuitous opportunities on this island were also quite considerable.

As the saying went, “Money came from danger.” Shen Tian felt like he should maximize his time here.

After some thought, Shen Tian asked, “Brother Qi, do you detect any treasures on this island with your Purre Heavenly Eye?”

Qi Shaoxuan gazed about proudly. “Although my battle prowess is slightly below that of Brother Shen’s, my Pure Heavenly Eye’s detecting powers are second to none. As long as I will it, no precious treasures or herbs within 100 miles can escape my eye.”

This type of detecting power was not just about how far he could see. It was also the ability to only detect what he was looking for.

As long as there was no concealing array, nothing could escape the Pure Heavenly Eye.

Of course, a powerful being would be able to feel Qi Shaoxuan’s eye, and it might even retaliate.

As a result, it could be quite dangerous for someone to use the Pure Heavenly Eye to snoop on a powerful being. It might provoke the powerful being into a murderous pursuit.

After all, powerful beings had their own pride.

Nevertheless, those giant Dragons on this island might be very powerful, but they had very low intelligence.

Those giant Dragons couldn’t care less about Qi Shaoxuan’s Pure Heavenly Eye peeking in on them.

“No valuable herbs within a 100-mile radius can escape my detection!”

Shen Tian beamed. “That’s great!”

He gazed at Qi Shaoxuan with sparkling eyes. “Brother Qi, let’s work together to raid them all!

Work together to raid them all?

Feeling Shen Tian’s passionate gaze, Qi Shaoxuan also felt his blood ignite.

Raiding them all with Brother Shen. Could he be declaring war against those Heavenly Venerable-level giant Dragons? Just the thought of it made my blood surge with excitement!

Nodding seriously, Qi Shaoxuan agreed with anticipation. “Brother Shen, I am with you!”

...

The next morning, murky sunlight pierced through the darkness.

Having had a good night’s sleep, the Purple Lightning Tyrant Dragon stretched lazily and crawled out of its nest. It glanced at the giant purple tree outside its nest with satisfaction. Nine purple fruits were growing on that tree. Every single one of them sparkled.

The fruits had mysterious scriptures carved onto their surfaces and purple lightning bolts crackling about them. They were definitely no ordinary fruits.

The bones of countless exotic creatures were buried underneath the giant purple tree’s roots.

This was how the Purple Lightning Tyrant Dragon and the Lightning Giant Tree co-existed. The Dragon would bury the bones of all its prey under the roots of that tree.

The bones of those powerful creatures were a vibrant source of Spirit Qi. They were the best type of fertilizer for the Lightning Giant Tree and could make it grow faster.

In return, the Lightning Giant Tree would bear “Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits”.

These Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits possessed the lightning energies of the Lightning Giant Tree. It was a supreme lightning-based treasure and could greatly enhance one’s lightning power.

The Purple Lightning Tyrant Dragon’s powers would improve significantly if it could ingest those nine Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits. It could even reach “Dragon King” status.

Yes, the Dragon King of this island! A Sage-level existence!

These nine fruits would be ripe soon.

It just needed the bones from a few more powerful prey as fertilizer for this Lightning Giant Tree. These nine Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits would ripen and fall.

By then, it would be the most respected great Lord Dragon King on this island!

The Purple Lightning Tyrant Dragon sashayed out of its nest to begin a new day of hunting and killing.

Would the other creatures on this island steal the Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits?

Haha, there was no need to worry about that at all. The Dragon had already sprayed the surroundings of its nest with urine.

The weaker beasts would never even dream of going near its nest. Meanwhile, even the more powerful ones would be very reluctant to do so. This would mean declaring war against it.

The Dragon strode off without a care in the world.

What it didn’t know was that about an hour after it left the nest, a “tiny” figure popped out nearby.

...

Yes, that figure was Shen Tian.

He made an “OK” gesture in a certain direction before turning his gaze toward the Lightning Giant Tree.

Good stuff!

Shen Tian had seen this tree in some of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s ancient records. It was one of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s most highly-exalted spirit plants.

Using it as the main ingredient with some supplementary herbs, one could refine the legendary Divine Firmament Tribulation Elixir.

Ingesting just one of those elixirs before undergoing a tribulation could reduce damage caused by lightning by 30%.

It should be pointed out just how many elite practitioners failed their Heavenly Tribulations by a mere hair. They could have succeeded if they had ingested this Divine Firmament Tribulation Elixir beforehand. This type of elixir was like a life-saving divine medicine to those who weren’t 100% confident of overcoming their tribulation.

“Didn’t expect there to be such a treasure growing beside this fellow’s nest. Very good, we are taking it!”

Shen Tian walked to the front of the tree with a smile. He took out 500ml of Nirvana Holy Liquid.

Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle!

About 100 yards away, a certain Purple Mansion Saint’s heart ached at the sight.

Brother Shen is too wasteful!

But as wasteful as it may seem, the results were indisputable.

The Nirvana Holy Liquid poured into the ground was instantly absorbed by the Lightning Giant Tree.

Soon after, countless lightning bolts erupted around the Lightning Giant Tree.

Streaks of purple lightning struck the tree, forming lines of lightning scriptures. The lightning currents all flowed straight into the Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits.

Those nearly-ripe fruits immediately fell to the ground.

“Aiyo, just 250ml, and you are already satisfied?”

Shen Tian happily kept the remaining 250ml of Nirvana Holy Liquid back into his Archeon Sea Ring. Two Divine Devouring Vines shot out of his hands and collected all those Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits.

A bountiful harvest! A bountiful harvest!

If Master saw all these Purple Lightning Sacred Fruits, his heavenly aura would ripple for three months straight!

...

Just as he was feeling very pleased with himself, the earth suddenly vibrated.

Roar!

An angry roar resonated from someplace far away. A massive beast was charging toward them.

It exuded an extremely violent aura, its jaws still stained with fresh blood from some exotic beast. It was clear that this fellow was in the middle of killing its prey when it detected a change at its nest and was now rushing back.

Zap!

A dense purple lightning ball was coagulating in the jaws of that Purple Lightning Tyrant Dragon.

The Dragon glared at Shen Tian as the lightning ball suddenly shot toward him. The lightning ball turned the surrounding fabrics of space into dust. Its power was such that it could kill a weaker Heavenly Venerable-level practitioner within seconds.

“Can Brother Shen defend himself against such a powerful attack? Nothing bad can happen to Brother Shen! Only I can defeat Brother Shen!”

Up in mid-air, Qi Shaoxuan’s Pure Heavenly Eye glowed as he clenched his fists.

Rumble!

Under the Purple Lightning Tyrant Dragon’s wrath-filled eyes, the big lightning ball struck the surface of the ground.

In the blink of an eye, purple lightning filled the air, devastating the entire area.

Meanwhile, Shen Tian gradually disappeared amongst the lightning...
