Even after Zhang Ruochen transformed into He Yuan, his left leg remained quite heavy, and he still limped uncontrollably as he walked.
That was a big giveaway!
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen dared not stand out too much and hid his aura as much as he could while he snuck to the bottom of the Tongming River.
When he arrived at the underwater dragon palace, Zhang Ruochen found that all of the palace's formation inscriptions had been breached. Within the dragon palace, over a dozen figures stood before the towering dragon's tomb. Clad in black robes, they exuded a strange and eerie aura.
Supreme-Saint Inscriptions had been laid all around the tomb by the Golden Dragon, and even a Nine-step Saint King would find it difficult to breach its defenses. Yet, they had all been eaten away by the Fane of Youshen's cultivators who had used Blood of the Devil.
With the dragon's tomb breached, a large area in the southeastern corner collapsed as a result.
