A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 337

Chapter 337: Settled

Soon, Wu Rulong arranged for the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor to be placed on another island within Penglai Immortal Island.

“This place is extremely spacious, more than enough to accommodate your clan.”

Wu Rulong looked at the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor and gave a slight bow.

Hearing this, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor nodded, then waved his hand to release the True Dragon Clan from within his Inner World. Seeing such a vast number of True Dragons, Wu Rulong’s expression subtly shifted.

But he quickly adjusted. As the president of the Xuanyuan Realm’s top commerce association, he had faced countless storms and challenges. It was only his cultivation that hadn’t advanced further, but in terms of aura, Wu Rulong was no less than some leaders of Immortal Emperor-level forces.

“May I ask who you are?”

After releasing the True Dragon Clan, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor finally turned to Wu Rulong and inquired.

“I am Wu Rulong, head of the Wu Family,” Wu Rulong replied, stating his identity.

At this moment, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor felt somewhat surprised. He had never expected that the family head of such a powerful family, as Senior Wu, would be merely a minor Golden Immortal in the late stage.

However, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor did not presumptuously ask any questions. Instead, he nodded and said, “In that case, Family Head Wu, let us discuss the matters regarding my Ten Thousand Dragons Valley becoming mounts to support your Wu Family’s power.”

Wu Rulong, however, waved his hand gently and said slowly, “There is no need for too much discussion on this matter. I have already made up my mind. When the Wu Family chooses mounts, we do not rely on intimidation to coerce the dragons. Instead, we conquer by strength. We would never force you to become mounts just because we are the Wu Family. Moreover, none of us in the Wu Family would send our mounts to their deaths. If anything happens to a mount, the Wu Family will do everything possible to bring back the True Dragons of your Ten Thousand Dragons Valley.”

Hearing this, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor was deeply moved. He had originally thought that becoming mounts for the Wu Family was an extremely humiliating matter, but now it seemed it was not so.

Before the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor could respond, Wu Rulong continued, “Furthermore, if you become mounts for cultivators of the Wu Family, we will provide mounts with half the resources that their masters receive each year. This is to help the mounts grow stronger as quickly as possible.”

“This is the amount of resources each Wu Family cultivator receives annually at every realm. You can take a look.”

With that, Wu Rulong extended his hand and directly handed over detailed information on the annual resource allocations for Wu Family cultivators at each realm for the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor to review.After seeing the amount of resources listed, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s breathing quickened involuntarily. If the information Wu Rulong had given was true, then even he himself would want to become a mount for a Wu Family cultivator, even if it were for an Immortal Venerable-level cultivator.

This was because even at the Immortal Venerable level within the Wu Family, a person received 10,000 pieces of top-grade Immortal Crystals annually. If a True Dragon became the mount of such a cultivator, the mount would receive half of that annually—5,000 pieces of top-grade Immortal Crystals. Over a century, that would amount to 500,000 pieces of top-grade Immortal Crystals.

It was important to note that despite having lived through countless eras, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor currently held just over 30 million pieces of top-grade Immortal Crystals. This meant that by becoming an Immortal Venerable-level Wu Family mount, it would only take about 6,000 years to earn that same amount.

For a master of the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s caliber, 6,000 years was no more than the blink of an eye.

Not to mention the Immortal Emperors above the Immortal Venerable level, who received 100,000 pieces of top-grade Immortal Crystals annually.

With these thoughts in mind, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s breathing grew even more hurried, and he quickly asked, “Family Head Wu, does the Wu Family currently have any Immortal Emperors or Immortal Venerable-level cultivators? I would be willing to become a mount for one of them, of course, provided their character is trustworthy.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Rulong’s expression became somewhat awkward. He slowly replied, “Well, our Wu Family doesn’t yet have any Immortal Venerable-level cultivators. Aside from my father, the strongest among us is currently at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage.”

Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor: …

“However, judging by the current situation, I’m afraid the Wu Family will soon have an Immortal Venerable-level powerhouse,” Wu Rulong quickly said. He wasn’t lying; given the Wu Family’s present condition, it really wouldn’t be long before such a powerful Immortal Venerable emerged.

But it was clear the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor wasn’t convinced. Breaking through from the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage to Immortal Venerable required at least tens of thousands of years. Even the most gifted among the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s tribe had spent a full hundred thousand years making that breakthrough. That showed just how difficult it was.

“Alright then, if there’s nothing else, I will prepare to enter seclusion and break through. As for selecting a mount, I will naturally send tribe members to negotiate with the Wu Family for me.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Rulong nodded and left.

At this moment, the True Dragons of Ten Thousand Dragons Valley all wore expressions of great shock. They hadn’t expected that within the Xuanyuan Realm there was a place comparable to Buzhou Mountain. It was well known that Buzhou Mountain was an Ancient Divine Mountain, said to be imbued with the Will of Heaven.

As for Penglai Immortal Island, none of them had heard of it before, but the spiritual energy it contained was far more concentrated than that of their own Buzhou Mountain.

Before they could ponder this further, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor approached and spoke to them.

“Everyone, this is the island that the Wu Family has selected for me, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor, within Penglai Immortal Island. From now on, this island will be the new foundation for Ten Thousand Dragons Valley. Here are some details regarding the selection of mounts by the Wu Family; you may take a look.”

After finishing, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor waved his hand, transmitting the information Wu Rulong had given him directly into the minds of the True Dragons present in Ten Thousand Dragons Valley. Upon learning about the generous benefits offered to those who became mounts for the Wu Family, the True Dragons became wildly excited.

“Valley Master, tell me quickly—where are the members of the Wu Family? I want to become their mount!”

“Hissing, such terrifying benefits. Even I can’t help but want to become a mount.”

“What? The待遇 (benefits) here are several times better than staying inside Ten Thousand Dragons Valley? Then why would I stay here? I want to be a mount for the Wu Family!”

Watching his clanmates’ expressions, the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s face darkened like a pot lid. Although the待遇 really were excellent—so much so that even he wanted to be a mount for the Wu Family and was nearly shouting it out loud—he couldn’t let himself show such weakness and embarrass himself in front of others.

With this thought, he sighed before speaking.

“But right now, apart from Ancestor Wu, the strongest among the Wu Family is only at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage. So, those of you hoping to become mounts for an Immortal Emperor or even an Immortal Venerable within the Wu Family can forget about that.”

As the Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor’s words fell, the True Dragons present instantly felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured on them; their excitement noticeably cooled.

Indeed, if it was only the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, then the resources they would receive would be far fewer.

But then, in the next moment, another voice rose among the True Dragons, suddenly enlightening them and brightening their expressions.“But don’t forget,” came the new voice, “that the Wu Family has already established a few combined cultivation realms with some True Dragons. Even though their overall individual strength might not match that of an Immortal Emperor, the power they unleash together is far beyond what you’d expect.”

This sparked a fresh wave of enthusiasm among the True Dragons.

A few of them exchanged glances, their eyes shining with hope.

“Joint cultivation realms? That sounds exciting. Even if it’s not the strongest, having such a close connection with the Wu Family must be a rare opportunity.”

“Exactly. Plus, once you become a mount and establish such a cultivation bond, your potential for growth will be multiplied. That can’t be found just sitting here in the valley.”

The Ten Thousand Dragons Emperor nodded approvingly, seeing the mood shift once again.

“Right now, what the Wu Family offers is not just power or resources. It’s a future where you can reach new heights alongside a family that’s rapidly growing in strength and influence. If you’re willing to work with them, your fate could change dramatically.”

Hearing this, the True Dragons’ excitement returned even stronger than before. Some even started secretly preparing themselves, eager for the chance to become one of the Wu Family’s mounts and unlock their true potential together.
