Chapter 1636: Saintly Dragon's Shower
Even Sky Heart Dragon Emperor would have his vested interests. If the one who became eternal immortal emperor was one of his children, it would be easier for him to control them.
And now, Wu Jun was about to become an eternal immortal emperor. Although this would strengthen the Sky Heart tribe, he wasn't confident of fully controlling Wu Jun.
A power that he didn't have absolute control over would obviously not be as great as if he had full control.
Nonetheless, this wasn't the right oocasion for Sky Heart Dragon Emperor to say anything. His children weren't as talented and it would take them unknown years to reach the cultivation realm of an eternal immortal emperor. In fact, they might never make that step forward.
If Wu Jun was successful, Sky Heart Dragon Emperor would also gain fame and honor.
However, even if Sky Heart Dragon Emperor wasn't about to say anything, it didn't mean that his children that came along wouldn't.
Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King were gnashing their teeth out of jealousy.
When Sky Heart Dragon Emperor expressed his hope for another eternal immortal emperor for Sky Heart tribe, Sky Heart Dragon Emperor was the first to take a jab at Wu Jun. "How could becoming an eternal immortal emperor be so easy? Perhaps this was just a ruse. Who knows where he had been fooling around over these years. Perhaps he had committed some mistakes and just using this as an excuse to hide himself from the public."
"You're right."
Sky Chariot Dragon King chimed in, "How long has it been since there's a new eternal immortal emperor in our mystical dragon tribe? Even if there will be a new one, there are so many talented mystical dragons around. There's no way it would be Wu Jun!"
To put it simply, they were bitter about it. They knew it from the bottom of their hearts that if Wu Jun had made such claims, he definitely was confident about it. At the very least, he stood a good chance of breaking though to become an eternal immortal emperor.
However, they weren't willing to accept Wu Jun would be successful.
This would be too shameful for them and just like a tight slap to their faces.
"It's better for you guys to keep those words to yourself."
Baiyin Dragon King took a glance at Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King before giggling, "Otherwise, your face might be swollen when the time comes."
"Just wait and see. He only has a chance of breakthrough. I can make those comments too."
Sky Chariot Dragon King snided and disregarded Baiyin Dragon King completely.
"Enough."
Sky Heart Dragon Emperor lifted his hand to stop the quabbles. He was just here to take a look. Since Wu Jun had hopes of becoming eternal immortal emperor, he just had to return home and wait for further news.
Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King scoffed with contempt before turning around and left with Sky Heart Dragon Emperor.
Wu Yu stayed in the Floating Dreams Pagoda all along and saw the indignant looks of Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King. He couldn't help but feel gratified. In fact, Wu Yu probably was the clearest about the progress of Wu Jun.
When they wrere in the Demon Immortal Realm, Wu Jun had several chance encounters. Among which, he received a head of the Apocalyptic Chaos Demon, overcame the trial of the secret chamber and gained further dao enlightenment.
Although the experiences were fraught with dangers, the benefits to Wu Jun were extensive.
Based on what Wu Yu could sense, Wu Jun's chances of becoming an eternal immortal emperor would be at least 80%.
After Sky Heart Dragon Emperor left with the rest, Wu Yu explained to Baiyin Dragon King and his wife, asked them to pay a visit to Wu Jun with the Floating Dreams Pagoda.
Wu Yu wanted to stay beside Wu Jun and to also watch his process of becoming an eternal immortal emperor. This would be helpful for him when he had to make the same step forward.
When Wu Yu was brought to Wu Jun, he told Wu Jun about Sky Heart Dragon Emperor bringing his children to ask for more information on the situation. Wu Jun laughed it off casually, "It wouldn't matter. Let them say what they want. However, if I fail to become an eternal immortal emperor, I would probably become the laughing stock of the mystical dragon tribe!"
"Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King would probably spread negative news about you. However, you shouldn't be bothered by them. Even if it didn't work out this time, you will still succeed after putting in more work in the future," said Wu Yu.
Wu Jun shook his head, "Breaching the eternal immortal emperor realm isn't that simple. Although I have some enlightenment, the difficulty of making that step forward would still be sky high. Nonetheless, it's not necessary to think about the outcome at this point. All I have to do is to focus on the enlightenment."
Wu Jun's training in seclusion began officially.
His seclusion was bound to take a long time. Wu Yu was prepared to stay behind to observe while researching into the epochal immortal design. Although he would likely not achieve anything within a short period, any slight improvement would still be an improvement. This would still be beneficial to him.
Wu Yu stayed within the Floating Dreams Pagoda, watching Wu Jun cultivate and discover the path to eternal immortal emperor.
Wu Jun was fully immersed in Immortal Dao. As his enlightenment towards Immortal Dao intensified, his entire body was basking in immortal qi.
On the peak of the mountain and in the protection of great void immortal design, Wu Jun alternated between his human form and his true form of Primordial Immortal Dragon. Immortal qi fluctuated constantly, adding elusive colors to his appearances.
As time passed, Wu Yu could sense the changes on Wu Jun more vividly.
The first aspect was to his aura. When Wu Jun was cultivating in seclusion, the aura surrounding him was constantly changing and evolving. Ordinary 9-heavens immortal king wouldn't give Wu Yu any pressure. After all, Wu Yu had battle strength similar to this level.
However, as Wu Jun cultivated, the aura around him surpassed that of a 9-heavens immortal king. In fact, Wu Yu was vaguely feeling stifling pressure from Wu Jun!
Wu Yu was certain Wu Jun would walk out from this seclusion with rewards. Even if he missed out on making the breakthrough, his cultivation realm and battle strength would be much stronger than an ordinary 9-heavens immortal king.
Nonetheless, Wu Yu still hoped Wu Jun would be successful and achieved a leap in biological gradation. Immortal emperor was a distinct concept from immortal king. Also, whether Wu Jun could become an immortal emperor would affect if Wu Yu could sneak into the Saintly Dragon's Domain to meet Luo Pin.
"This feels just like watching a mortal achieving immortalhood!"
While watching Wu Jun cultivated in seclusion, Wu Yu was emotional and gained enlightenment from the process constantly.
He had experienced the process a mortal achieving immortalhood. That was a metamorphosis in biological gradation and completely distinct from ordinary increased in cultivation realm.
Although Wu Yu could now escape from an eternal immortal emperor, he still couldn't face one directly. This was the distance between them. Now, he was no longer afraid of ordinary 9-heavens immortal kings, even if a handful were coming for him.
Even if he couldn't match against a handful of 9-heavens immortal kings, he could still use his various Mystiques, techniquesto defeat them one after another by leveraging on the situational circumstances.
His current strength was several times stronger than when he first entered the Eternal Emperor Tomb.
A mortal to an immortal and an immortal to an immortal emperor were both a leap in biological gradation.
A mortal had a lifespan counted in hundreds of years while an immortal had a lifespan counted in tens of thousands of years. That's several hundred times more. As for eternal immortal emperor, they had eternal life. Eternal life was a greater and more distinct concept than millions of years. For an eternal immortal emperor, the concept of time would have taken new meaning.
While Wu Yu was observing, Wu Jun seeming to be breaking free from life. Immortal qi surrounded him, untrammeled by worldly affairs. Clearly, these were signs of a metamorphosis. At this point, Wu Yu truly felt Wu Jun would be successful in becoming an eternal immortal emperor.
Five thousand years passed quickly.
Over this time, Wu Yu could easily foresee rumors of Wu Jun spreading rampantly in the outside world. Most of them were definitely negative rumors spread by Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King.
Wu Jun was still training in seclusion and naturally wouldn't hear the rumors. Wu Yu was next to Wu Jun and the rumors naturally wouldn't reach him too.
Nonetheless, Wu Yu knew what Wu Jun was about to accomplish would definitely shock the entire mystical dragon tribe!
Over the five thousand years, Wu Jun had been accumulating and digesting the enlightenment he gained. On this day five thousand years later, Wu Jun finally achieved a material leap caused by accumulated gains.
At that instant, Wu Jun transformed into Primordial Immortal Dragon, soared into the clouds let loose angry roars!
Wu Yu had a clear look from the Floating Dreams Pagoda directly below. Endless auspicious clouds filled the skies and the angry roars resonated throughout the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm!
Numerous mystical dragon were alarmed and rose into the skies from various mountains. Some mystical dragons from other realms even flew in to investigate!
A beam of white light emerging from their sacred grounds, the Saintly Dragon's Domain, slashed across the skies and shone on Wu Jun, the Primordial Immortal Dragon. Amidst the auspicious clouds, he began the true metamorphosis of biological gradation.
"That's Saintly Dragon's Shower! A mystical dragon that goes through the Saintly Dragon's Shower will then become an eternal immortal emperor and assumes the role of a revered dragon!"
"Is that the Primordial Immortal Dragon, Wu Jun, that is in the rumors spreading recently? A thousand years ago, I overheard Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King discussing that this guy has no chance of becoming an eternal immortal emperor. Who would have thought he would succeed today!"
"Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King? How could their words be trusted! They have always looked down on Wu Jun, feeling Wu Jun was inferior to them. This is great. Now that Wu Jun had become an eternal immortal emperor and would forever be a notch above them, let's see if they had other words to speak about him!"
"Shhhh! Don't ever let them hear this. Now that Wu Jun becomes a revered dragon, they couldn't afford to mess with him. However, Sky Shadow Dragon Queen and Sky Chariot Dragon King still aren't people you can mess with!"
"Back to the subject, since when was the last Saintly Dragon's Shower in our mystical dragon tribe? Wu Jun is really impressive. Over these years, there's finally a new eternal immortal emperor in our mystical dragon tribe!"
The entire Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm was basically discussing about Wu Jun.
From a far distance away, they could see the auspicious clouds hanging above the mountain where Wu Jun was and the sacred white beam of light that came from the Saintly Dragon's Domain. A Primordial Immortal Dragon was completing the final stages of biological gradation metamorphosis.
Wu Yu was the closest and could feel it the strongest.
At this moment, he could clearly sense the aura of Wu Jun strengthening ten times over. If Wu Jun's aura was like the moon previously, it would be the sun after the metamorphosis. In fact, Wu Yu could sense a strong stifling pressure from his aura.
"That's the aura of a true eternal immortal emperor!"
Wu Yu was exhilarated. Wu Jun finally succeeded and made the most important step for any eternal immortal emperor!
