A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 296

Chapter 296 Half-Step God?

“Heavenly Dragon, what brings you here?”

Upon seeing the Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor slightly opened his eyes. In the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s view, the form of the Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor was even smaller than his own eye.

This was because the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor usually preferred to manifest in his dragon form, while the Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor traveled the Upper Realm in human form. Even if the Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor revealed his true dragon body, it would still be far smaller than the immense Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor.

Hearing the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s words, the Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor suppressed the shock on his face. For some reason, he felt the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s aura seemed even more terrifying than before.

“Valley Master, outside the Upper Realm there is a force known as the Wu Family. In broad daylight, they have taken nine True Dragons of my clan as their steeds. I wonder how this matter should be resolved?”

The Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor bowed slightly and spoke directly.

Upon hearing this, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s aura suddenly shifted, and he snorted coldly.

“Hmph, do you really need to tell me this? Just go ahead and wipe out that Wu Family. They dare to insult our True Dragon Clan like this—the Wu Family has already sealed their own fate.”

“But, Valley Master, those nine True Dragons are at the Immortal Venerable Pinnacle. I fear there might be beings within the Wu Family even stronger than me. I’m no match for them.”

The Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor’s expression showed hesitation. Upon hearing that the nine True Dragons were at the Immortal Venerable Pinnacle, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor furrowed his brow deeply.

After a long pause, he finally spoke in an angry tone.

“If that’s the case, then dispatch two clan leaders from the five great tribes. With two Late Stage Immortal Emperors among the True Dragons taking action, no matter how strong the Wu Family is, they won’t be their match!”

Within Ten Thousand Dragons Valley, there are five great tribes. Each tribe’s clan leader is a Late Stage Immortal Emperor, which means Ten Thousand Dragons Valley has at least five Late Stage Immortal Emperors, not to mention the even stronger Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor himself.

This also explains why no power in the Upper Realm dares to use the True Dragon Clan as mounts. The True Dragon Clan is extremely protective and values its dignity greatly. There was once an incident where a Mid-Stage Immortal Emperor forcibly tamed a Late Stage Immortal Venerable True Dragon as his mount.

When Ten Thousand Dragons Valley found out, they sent one of their clan leaders—and the outcome was a death so miserable it could not have been worse.

Because of that incident, no power in the Upper Realm has dared to tame the True Dragon Clan as mounts since. After all, no one knows just how strong Ten Thousand Dragons Valley truly is, and it’s not worth offending such a powerful force over pride.

“I understand, Valley Master!”

The Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor took the Emperor’s Decree from the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor and left immediately. As soon as he departed, the massive gate closed heavily behind him.

At this moment, the presence of the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor was fully revealed—at the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle level, no, even stronger than that: a half-step God!

“Still a bit short. Since the Upper Realm is sealed, I can only seek an opportunity for breakthrough from outside the Upper Realm.”

The Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor turned to look at an array formation in the distance behind him. Within the formation, space was collapsing, revealing a deep, dark glow—the Divine Realm beyond the Upper Realm.

Although beings stronger than Immortal Venerables can shatter the space of the Upper Realm, they cannot break through the boundary connecting the Upper Realm to the Divine Realm, and even an Immortal Emperor is powerless against it.

Therefore, to break through beyond the Immortal Emperor level, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor used an array found in an ancient relic he discovered. After countless years of refinement, he finally arranged this formation.

However, it could only partially fracture the Divine Realm’s space, allowing the laws leaked through to help him advance beyond the Immortal Emperor stage. Still, progress was extremely slow—it would take at least a million years under current conditions.

For those stronger than Great Luo Golden Immortals, time was the least valuable resource. A mere million years would pass in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, after receiving the Emperor’s Edict from the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor, the Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor found two tribes. After showing the edict, two clan leaders chose to join him.

“Hmph, the mere Human Clan, what right do they have to use our True Dragon Clan as mounts? It seems the Human Clan is courting death!”

The clan leader of the Azure Dragon Tribe, the Azure Dragon Immortal Emperor, said furiously.

Standing beside him, the clan leader of the Golden Dragon Tribe, the Golden Dragon Immortal Emperor, calmly replied:

“Let’s go. Quickly wipe out that Human Clan force. How dare they enslave our True Dragon Clan—it seems we truly haven’t acted in a long time. The powers of the Upper Realm have forgotten just how powerful our True Dragon Clan is.”

The five great tribes within Ten Thousand Dragons Valley are the Azure Dragon Tribe, the Golden Dragon Tribe, the Wooden Dragon Tribe, the Silver Dragon Tribe, and the Demonic Dragon Tribe.

“Gentlemen, let us depart!”

The Heavenly Dragon Immortal Emperor stood respectfully before them, as both were Late Stage Immortal Emperors capable of killing a Early Stage Immortal Emperor like him with a single move.

“Hmm, let’s go.”

At the command of the Azure Dragon Immortal Emperor, the three dragons set off toward beyond Buzhou Mountain.

At this moment, Wu Hao was still unaware that the powerful warriors from Ten Thousand Dragons Valley were heading his way. He was watching Wu Qilong as he doggedly pushed himself to break through the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle.

“Not bad. After refining the elixir I gave him, he can now begin his breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle. With some settling, he’ll be ready to push toward the Divine Realm.”

Wu Hao thought to himself with satisfaction. He had naturally realized that the Upper Realm’s laws were sealed, but this wasn’t a difficult problem for him. All he needed was to refine some elixirs infused with the power of the Divine Realm’s laws.

By chance, on that day near the edge of the Ancient Star Road within Buzhou Mountain, Wu Hao had gathered a small amount of the Divine Realm’s law power. That’s how he managed to refine this elixir, intending to have Wu Qilong test its effects.

Unexpectedly, the results were remarkable. After swallowing the elixir, Wu Rulong’s realm began to fluctuate, and now he was close to breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle.

“However, the location of Penglai Immortal Island is also extremely unique. There is another Ancient Star Road within Penglai Immortal Island itself.”

Wu Hao turned and looked toward the depths of Penglai Immortal Island, his expression very serious as he thought to himself. Unlike the Ancient Star Road at Buzhou Mountain, the Ancient Star Road on Penglai Immortal Island had long been completely abandoned. Wu Hao detected no trace of the Divine Realm’s aura there, so he dared not enter recklessly.

While Wu Hao was watching intently, Wu Qilong’s realm finally achieved a full breakthrough, advancing from Late Stage Immortal Emperor to Immortal Emperor Pinnacle.

The moment the breakthrough was completed, terrifying thunder tribulations formed all over Penglai Immortal Island. Seeing this, Wu Hao waved his hand and flung Wu Qilong out. Although the array formation on Penglai Immortal Island could withstand Wu Qilong’s breakthrough tribulations, it was still better to send him out.

(After all, he couldn’t very well say that he did this just to reduce the wear and tear on the array formation.)
