Chapter 1698: Perfecting the Martial Dao

Right then, a dragon strode forward and said in a deep voice, “Emperors, a young man outside the Dragon Bone Valley requests an audience with the young master. He said that his name is Tao Yao and he has something to report.”

“Mmm?”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body’s heart sank.

Tao Yao was usually guarding Ping Yang Town—could something have happened to it?

Without waiting for Tao Yao to enter, he released his Dragon Phoenix Wings and Roc Golden Wings. Pushing his speed to its limits, he arrived outside the Dragon Bone Valley in the blink of an eye.

Long Ran and the others chased after him as well.

“Something happened in Ping Yang Town?”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body did not exchange pleasantries when he saw Tao Yao and asked directly.

“Greetings, young master,”

Tao Yao shook his head. “Ping Yang Town is fine. However, Rakshasa Yu just came and sent a jade scroll for me to hand to you personally.”

Initially, Rakshasa Yu wanted to look for the Martial Dao Prime Body. However, the latter was not in Ping Yang Town so she left the jade scroll for Tao Yao.

Tao Yao handed the jade scroll over as he said that.

The Dragon Phoenix True Body received the jade scroll and injected his spirit consciousness into it, seeing the information left behind by Rakshasa Yu.

There was not much information except for two lines of words. “The Demon Emperors of the eight demon regions have all chosen to submit. The Primordial Five Races are prepared to join forces and wage war!”

“At that time, the God race will be the vanguard, followed by the demon race and the Primordial Five Races. We’ll destroy the Barbarian race followed by the Dragon and Kun races!”

After reading the jade scroll, the Dragon Phoenix True Body crushed it expressionlessly and the information within appeared before everyone.

Everyone had ugly expressions.

The moment something happened to their three races, the other five races received the news and were prepared to join forces to wage war.

10,000 years ago, the Primordial Five Races suffered a huge loss.

This time round, they would definitely return with wrath!

“What should I do?”

Although Man Feng was the clan leader of the Barbarian race, he was flustered at the moment.

The current situation was unlike before. If they did not deal with it properly, the Barbarian race would be annihilated!

Everyone looked at the Dragon Phoenix True Body, waiting for him to make a decision.

The Dragon Phoenix True Body said slowly, “There’s no other choice but to fight!”

Even if they knew that there might be an invisible hand masterminding the catastrophe, the Primordial Three Races had no choice.

They could only accept the challenge!

“But how do we fight?”

Man Feng shook his head. “The difference in strength is too great! The Chen Dragon Emperor is dead and there are five top Emperors on the other side. We can’t defend at all.”

“I’ll deal with the five Emperors,”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body’s tone was resolute.

With his Green Lotus True Body and Night Spirit, he could attempt to fight the Hell Witch Emperor and the others.

Actually, if the Martial Dao Prime Body could become an Emperor, the Hell Witch Emperor and the others would not be a threat!

However, the Dragon Phoenix True Body had been in seclusion the entire time. Now that he was out, he had already lost contact with the Martial Dao Prime Body.

Earlier on, he tried to contact the Martial Dao Prime Body as well but there was no response.

“However, the difference in terms of overall strength is immense as well,”

The Nie Dragon Emperor sighed. “Including the God race, the other party is equivalent to the Primordial Six Races. Furthermore, they have the help of the demon race, we…”

“It’s not impossible to fight,”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body said in a deep voice, “I’ll contact the human race and get them to join forces with our Primordial Three Races!”

Actually, apart from the human race, there was another faction that was not under the control of the primordial races.

That was the Kunlun race under Night Spirit!

The Kunlun race had just walked out of the Kunlun Ruins. Apart from Night Spirit, there were no other Kunlun Emperors. However, there were many Patriarchs of the Kunlun race and they were a power that could not be ignored!

“Man Feng, return to the Barbarian race immediately and use your spatial Dharmic treasure to move the entire Barbarian race to the Dragon Bone Valley!”

The Dragon Phoenix True Body made a prompt decision and laid the orders. “Yin Lan, return to the Kun race as well and transfer them over.”

Their Primordial Three Races were met with a calamity. If they did not join forces, they would only be destroyed one after another.

The Barbarian race was located in the East Region. If the Dragon and Kun races were to head there, it would be easy for them to be surrounded.

“Alright!”

Man Feng and Yin Lan agreed without hesitation and turned to leave.

Since the Dragon Phoenix True Body could not contact the Martial Dao Prime Body, he sent all the information here to the Green Lotus True Body.

It was only then that the Dragon Phoenix True Body recalled something and hurriedly checked on the situation in his consciousness.

A look of disappointment flashed through his eyes.

Although he comprehended a supreme divine power and became an Emperor, the fourth ball of light in his consciousness did not shatter.

There was a divine power in the fourth ball of light.

If he could comprehend that divine power, the combat strength of the Dragon Phoenix True Body would increase significantly. Unfortunately, there was no reaction from the fourth ball of light.

…

In the ancient battlefield, Su Zimo woke up from his seclusion with a grim expression.

What he was worried about still happened.

He had already vaguely guessed that a catastrophe might descend. However, he did not expect it to come so suddenly that the Primordial Three Races were almost forced into a corner!

If the blood face or Blood Fiend was behind this catastrophe, the scale of this was way too great!

This would be a calamity comparable to the primordial and ancient wars that swept through the entire Tianhuang Mainland!

Nobody would be spared!

The most terrifying thing was that the blood face did not give the Primordial Three Races and the human race any choice.

They could only accept the challenge.

Before Su Zimo entered seclusion this time round, he had communicated with the Martial Dao Prime Body.

The Martial Dao Prime Body was in trouble.

Refinement of divine powers was much more difficult than the Martial Dao Prime Body had imagined.

The Martial Spirit Fire could smelt cultivation techniques and secret skills, but the speed of smelting divine powers was clearly much slower.

Although the Martial Dao Prime Body had smelted some lesser and greater divine powers all these years, he had not succeeded in smelting a single supreme divine power.

More importantly, the cultivation of the Martial Dao Prime Body had reached a bottleneck.

The Dharmic formulations cultivated by the Martial Dao Prime Body were different from those of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects. He could only cultivate while deducing and perfecting the Martial Dao.

But now, there was no path ahead.

The Martial Dao Prime Body had to deduce and perfect the Martial Dao to pave the path beneath his feet before he could continue.

Deducing cultivation techniques required an endless amount of time.

The Martial Dao Prime Body gave up on smelting divine powers for the time being and chose to enter seclusion.

However, in this seclusion, the Martial Dao Prime Body severed all connections and even the Green Lotus True Body and Dragon Phoenix True Body could not sense him.

It was as though the Martial Dao Prime Body had vanished from Tianhuang Mainland!

Right then, an ancient palace that emitted the might of the Emperor Dao vaguely appeared in the firmaments of the ancient battlefield!

The Human Emperor’s Palace had descended!

Before long, the storyteller walked out of the Human Emperor’s Palace.

This was the first time the storyteller had appeared after he entered the Human Emperor’s Palace.

After a thousand years, the storyteller had changed significantly as well.

Previously, the storyteller comprehended three supreme divine powers.

After receiving the inheritance of the Human Emperor’s Palace a thousand years ago, the storyteller had already comprehended four supreme divine powers!

“Something has happened!”

The storyteller found Su Zimo right away and said with a grim expression.

Even in the Human Emperor’s Palace, the storyteller knew everything in the world.

Su Zimo nodded. “I’m prepared to gather the Emperors of the ancient battlefield and join forces with the Dragon, Kun and Barbarian races to defend against the Primordial Five Races.”
