Chapter 2804: Blue Heaven Dao Venerable . . .
Regardless of whether it was Huang Xiaolong's eight high-order Saint Fates or the Immemorial Treasury, things were already out of Yi Xiaotang's control. The Blue Heaven Dao Venerable had to personally arrive to meet the brat they called Huang Xiaolong.
By nodding her head slowly, Yi Xiaotang gnashed her teeth and growled, "When my father arrives, he'll be able to snatch the Immemorial Treasury away from that brat! If Huang Xiaolong refuses to join the Blue Heaven Creed, we'll kill him!"
Aunt Qing opened her mouth to say something, but she eventually swallowed her words.
Ignoring Aunt Qing, Yi Xiaotang turned around to look at the half-dead Xu Jian and sneered, "What a useless piece of trash!"
As the number one genius in the Saint Devil Heavenly Cave, he was beaten to the brink of death by a Ninth Heaven True Saint! If he wasn't a useless fool, what else would he be…?
Of course, there was one thing Yi Xiaotang seemed to have conveniently forgotten when she scoffed at Xu Jian's strength. If not for her cosmos artifact, she would have died by Huang Xiaolong's final strike. If they had to compare absolute power, she might be an even greater loser than Xu Jian!
No longer hanging around, Yi Xiaotang and Aunt Qing shot towards the Saint Devil Sacred Land.
The most important thing they had to do was to save the Saint Devil Prince. As the disciple of Yan San, they couldn't watch him turn into a cripple before their very eyes.
Several days later…
The Saint Devil Heavenly Cave trembled when they heard the rumors that went about.
"What?! Xu Jian of the Saint Devil Sacred land discovered the Immemorial Immortal Cave and that brat called Huang Xiaolong snatched it away from him? The Saint Devil Prince was even injured by the kid with the Immemorial Grand Formation!"
"Several thousand Primal Ancestors who entered the Immemorial Immortal Cave have disappeared! No one knows where they are now! From what I've heard, even Fu Daosheng, the strongest expert of the Talisman Heavenly Cave, is said to be trapped in the Immemorial Immortal Cave by Huang Xiaolong!"
"Moreover, someone said that Huang Xiaolong had eight high-order Saint Fates! Every single one of them could be said to be of the highest level! Venerable Aunt Qing of the Blue Heaven Creed and Princess Yi Xiaotang were present when he revealed it!"
"There are tons of treasures in the Immemorial Treasury! The Immemorial Sword and Immemorial Qilins were sighted by the ladies!"
Every single piece of news could cause the Saint Devil Heavenly Cave to tremble, but the combination of all of them shook even the regions around them.
Surprise, envy, jealousy, and even suspicion formed in the minds of many.
When the experts in the surrounding regions obtained the news, they rushed towards the Saint Devil Heavenly Cave with the quickest speed possible.
Regardless of whichever treasure it was, or Huang Xiaolong's eight high-order Saint Fates, the news itself attracted countless experts.
As for Yi Xiaotang, she reported to her father the moment she returned. Along with Yan San, the master of Xu Jian, she told the both of them everything that had happened in the Immemorial Immortal Cave. The Blue Heaven Dao Venerable, Yi Beihang, and Grand Hall Master Yan San didn't dare to believe what they just heard.
"Immemorial Sword?! Immemorial Fire and Ice Qilin?! Eight high-order Saint Fates!" Yi Beihang's eyes widened in shock. "Are you sure Huang Xiaolong has eight high-order Saint Fates?!"
He refused to believe that a tiny region like the Saint Devil Heavenly Cave could nurture someone with eight high-order Saint Fates! Not to mention the fact that Huang Xiaolong came from a weak little sacred land he had barely even heard of.
Yi Xiaotang and Aunt Qing nodded their heads with a solemn expression.
"Big rother, Huang Xiaolong really has eight high-order Saint Fates! I even verified it with our Blue Heaven Clairvoyance!" Aunt Qing said.
As it turned out, Aunt Qing and Yi Beihang were siblings who shared a different surnames.
However, Yan San sneered at the side, "Even so, one can't say that he has outstanding talent. His holy soul might not even rank in the top ten! Even after learning that Xu Jian was my disciple, he dared to move against him! He deserves to die! Since my disciple discovered the Immemorial Immortal Cave, it belongs to our Blue Heaven Creed! How dare a random ant snatch it from under our eyes?! He's committing a crime that warrants the death of his entire faction!"
"Venerable, we can't allow Huang Xiaolong to live!"
After Yan San spoke his piece, another expert who was listening at the side spoke up, "Brother Yan San is correct. We cannot allow him to live just because of his eight high-order Saint Fates. Our Blue Heaven Creed controls several hundred regions. No one can go against us. How dare a disciple of a tiny sacred land harm our disciple?"
Yi Beihang stared at the person who spoke and asked, "Eminent Elder Wang Jin, what do you think?"
Yi Beihang might have been the Blue Heaven Dao Venerable, but Wang Jin was the strongest expert in the creed. He was an early-Second Esteem Dao Venerable, and Yi Beihang had to consult him before making a decision.
"He has to hand over the treasury. However, if Huang Xiaolong really is someone with unparalleled talent, I wish to take him in as my disciple."
Yan San frowned when he heard what Wang Jin said. "Huang Xiaolong harmed a core disciple of our creed! Accepting him as a disciple doesn't seem appropriate…"
"What do you mean by that?" Wang Jin glanced at Yan San from the corner of his eye and snapped, "If Huang Xiaolong is really talented, our Blue Heaven Creed will benefit greatly if he joins us!"
He was naturally aware of what Yan San wanted to do.
However, Yi Xiaotang, who was sitting at the side quietly, spoke up all of a sudden, "Father, you can't be serious! Huang Xiaolong almost killed me, your precious daughter with a single sword strike when I was escaping! You can't let him off without allowing me to punish him!"
Yi Beihang chuckled softly when he heard her, "Aren't you hopping about just fine? Stop it. When Huang Xiaolong joins us, I'll make him offer his sincere apologies to you."
Yi Xiaotang pouted her lips and turned her face away from her father.
"Oh right," Aunt Qing interrupted all of a sudden. "I can't shake the feeling that Huang Xiaolong is guarding a huge secret. He managed to refine the sword in a single day and control the Immemorial Grand Formation. If he hides in the Immemorial Immortal Cave and enters some secluded region, it won't be easy to find him!"
The four Dao Venerables looked at each other before breaking out into laughter.
Yan San was the first to speak, "Even a half-step Dao Venerable won't be able to fully control the Immemorial Immortal Cave! With his strength, he wouldn't be able to move it by an inch no matter how hard he tries! Only Dao Venerables possess the ability to drive it through the air."
"The most he will be able to do is move away one or two dao artifacts." Yi Beihang laughed.
Every single grand dao artifact was protected by the creator's restrictions. If Huang Xiaolong wanted to gain control over them, it wouldn't be easy. If the Dao Venerables in the hall really wanted to rush over, all they would take were two short days.
Of course, they didn't dally around as Yi Beihang and Wang Jin decided to make the journey.
Two days later, they arrived at the spot Yi Xiaotang and Aunt Qing pointed out.
"We should be here…" Yi Beihang frowned. No matter how he looked around, he couldn't find the slightest trace of the Immemorial Immortal Cave!
Chapter 2805: Primal Ancestor! . . .
Wang Jin's expression was weird as he realized that the Immemorial Immortal Cave wasn't where it should have been.
"Why can't I feel any traces of the Immemorial Dao Venerable?! There isn't the slightest trace of immemorial grand dao energy to be felt!" Wang Jin opened his Blue Heaven Eye instantly to survey the area. However, he failed to find the immortal cave no matter how hard he tried.
"This isn't possible!" Yi Beihang's expression fell. "There's no way for Huang Xiaolong to move the immortal cave! Look around and locate it!"
An hour later, the few of them scoured several trillion miles around the location Yi Xiaotang had pointed out and realized that there were no traces of the Immemorial Immortal Cave.
Yi Beihang's expression fell.
"Don't tell me he really managed to take it away…" Wang Jin guessed.
Yi Beihang shook his head. "He's just a True Saint. There's no way for him to move it about! The only way is for a Dao Venerable to help him!"
"Dao Venerable?!" Wang Jin muttered, "Didn't Xiaotang mention something about a formations master backing up Cangqiong Sacred Land?"
Yi Beihang was stunned for a second, but his expression soon returned to normal. He chuckled in amusement. "Eminent Elder Wang Jin, do you really believe the rumors out there? How can a tiny sacred land like them obtain the backing of a formations master? Even our Blue Heaven Creed couldn't produce one!"
Wang Jin nodded slowly. If he had to be honest with himself, he didn't believe that Huang Xiaolong could find the backing of such an impressive figure too.
"How else are we supposed to explain the disappearance of the immortal cave?" Wang Jin asked all of a sudden.
From what Yi Xiaotang had said, the cave should have been located right where they were standing!
Narrowing his eyes, Yi Beihang growled, "Let's take a trip down to Cangqiong Sacred Land!"
Even though Huang Xiaolong had escaped with the Immemorial Immortal Cave, Cangqiong Sacred Land couldn't be moved, right?!
Kind of.
When the group rushed all the way over, they saw that Cangqiong Scared Land was indeed still around, but there wasn't a single sign of life.
Cangqiong Old Man, Fei Yanzi, and the others had long since disappeared.
Even the Primal Ancestors of the Cangqiong Alliance couldn't be found anywhere!
Yi Beihang's expression turned extremely ugly.
He hadn't experienced anger in a long time, and the continuous stream of irritation caused a seed of rage to sprout in his heart.
Wang Jin's expression didn't differ by much.
Originally, he was planning to obtain a disciple whose talent stood firmly in the top tier of the Divine Tuo Holy World with eight high-order Saint Fates along with the treasury of the Immemorial Dao Venerable. However, Huang Xiaolong was nowhere to be found!
"Contact Xu Dong and order him to seal the entire Saint Devil Heavenly Cave. No one is allowed to leave! Report to us immediately if they manage to find traces of Huang Xiaolong, and my Blue Heaven Creedwill reward them heavily!" Yi Beihang growled.
Xu Dong was the patriarch of the Saint Devil Sacred Land, and he was Xu Jian's father. He was also known as the strongest expert in the Saint Devil Heavenly Cave.
Wang Jin nodded slowly.
That was the only thing they could do.
Very quickly, Yi Beihang's order arrived at every corner of the Saint Devil Heavenly Cave.
Countless sacred lands trembled when they heard the news.
Regardless of whether it was the fact that Huang Xiaolong had managed to obtain the Immemorial Treasury or the fact that the Blue Heaven Creed was putting out a large reward to search for Huang Xiaolong, every faction that had the ability to search for him sent out countless experts.
It was especially so for the Saint Devil Scared Land as Xu Dong went crazy and used the full strength of the sacred land to search for Huang Xiaolong.
As the Saint Devil Heavenly Cave was locked down, the Immemorial Immortal Cave was hovering in the void in the midst of chaos.
Sitting in the middle of the formation eye in the Immemorial Immortal Cave, Huang Xiaolong devoured the immemorial grand dao energy at a terrifying pace.
A massive dao spiritual] vein could be seen swirling about him, and it was precisely the Scarlet Dragon Grand Dao Spiritual Vein the Saint Devil Prince had set his eyes on the moment he had entered the treasury.
Like a massive scarlet dragon, the spiritual vein swam around Huang Xiaolong and released scarlet dragon grand dao energy from time to time.
The Immemorial Qilins were standing a distance away as they shot beams of absolute frost and absolute blaze into Huang Xiaolong's body.
Of course, the two of them were merely using the energy to temper Huang Xiaolong's body. With the assistance of the absolute flame and frost, Huang Xiaolong's Huang Long Bloodline had a possibility of evolving when he entered the Primal Ancestor Realm. He would be able to control both powers as though they were his own!
If anyone else tried to do something like that, there would be absolutely no chance of succeeding. Even if they had the strongest bloodline the Divine Tuo Holy World had to offer, their body would never be strong enough! The only reason Huang Xiaolong could do it was because he had the bloodline of the God of Creation!
Cangqiong Old Man, Duan Feng, and the others were cultivating outside the treasury.
It went without saying that Fu Daosheng and the others failed to break the formation. They were trapped in the Immemorial Immortal Cave, and after Huang Xiaolong eliminated half of those standing against him, he summoned his Huang Long Bloodline in an attempt to convince Zhou Hong and the others to serve him.
The moment the bloodline of the God of Creation appeared, nearly everyone present agreed to submit. Huang Xiaolong no longer bothered convincing those who refused, and he shattered their bodies and kept their dao souls.
With the Immemorial Qilins and the half-step Dao Venerables, Huang Xiaolong had traveled back to Cangqiong Sacred Land and brought everyone away.
Tearing through the void, Huang Xiaolong had brought the Immemorial Immortal Cave to the depths of the chaotic void in order to enter the Primal Ancestor Realm.
In the blink of an eye, ten years passed.
On a fine day, the space the Immemorial Immortal Cave was in started to tremble as though a fearsome beast was about to appear.
The chaotic streams around the cave fluctuated, and they seemed to be escaping from where the Immemorial Immortal Cave was.
As the storms became stronger and stronger, traces of purplish-gold lightning appeared from another space. The purple gold lightning was the Resurrection Lightning every True Saint had to overcome before turning into a Primal Ancestor.
There was a trace of a black flame hidden in the lightning, and it was even more terrifying than the purple gold lightning. The flame was the Black Lotus Flame that would only appear during the creation of a world!
Like flowers blooming in their prime, the flame burned brighter and brighter and the aura it emitted could threaten Dao Venerables!
The purple lightning very quickly surrounded a trillion miles around the Immemorial Immortal Cave, and the black lotus flame flickered unceasingly.
Cangqiong Old Man, Long Jianfei, Duan Feng, Fei Yanzi, and the others stared at the incoming tribulation with their hearts palpitating.
"Xiaolong… Xiaolong is about to enter the Primal Ancestor Realm!" Cangqiong Old Man gasped in surprise.
Fu Daosheng and the others stared at the tribulation clouds in disbelief.
"Resurrection lightning and black lotus flame?! Shouldn't these only appear when one is entering the Dao Venerable Realm?" Zhou Hong's jaws dropped.
"No… the black lotus flame will not appear even if one enters the Dao Venerable Realm…" Fu Daosheng shook his head slowly.
