Chapter 823 - 821: Primordial Dragon Realm
This guy turned out to be the legendary Five Elements Yangzi, whose brain waves resonated with mine for so long, and yet I failed to notice this connection.
Yue Xiaoyao tapped his forehead, utterly surprised.
Master Kualong Daoist mentioned before reaching nirvana that the Five Elements Yangzi is one of the key figures to open that secret space. Without him, the entire plan is virtually impossible to complete.
Moreover, the Five Elements Yangzi is the ultimate cultivator of the half-secret manual in the Primordial Dragon Realm.
"Hey, old man, why are you hitting me?" Chen Tianlong was somewhat frustrated. Although it was just his Primordial Spirit entering through brain wave resonance, surely even an old guy should know it hurts?
"Haha, no worries, I was just testing your reflexes and didn’t expect them to be so weak." Yue Xiaoyao couldn’t divulge the secret because if word got out, those two old unreliables would soon know, leading to complications.
"Alright then, may I ask Master Yue what place this is? The air feels great, and the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is quite abundant. Can I come here to cultivate often?" Chen Tianlong grinned broadly.
"Well... if you want to come, I couldn’t stop you, could I?"
Yue Xiaoyao smiled wryly. He had intentionally brought Chen Tianlong here with an idea initially. Now, realizing Chen Tianlong was the Five Elements Yangzi, and the Primordial Dragon Space itself was a Five Elements Qi cultivation space that opened its passage automatically for him, Yue Xiaoyao couldn’t prevent it.
"Hehe." Chen Tianlong chuckled softly. The old man’s words rang true; earlier, he entered by merely murmuring a few words, needing no passwords or keys. Nobody could stop him.
"However, let me warn you, you mustn’t reveal this place to anyone, even your closest. Doing so could invite lethal danger." Yue Xiaoyao pondered and advised earnestly.
"Okay!" Chen Tianlong nodded.
"Alright, I must reiterate, I will not answer any further questions. It’s best if you leave the cave now. Besides, why worry about leaving when you break through to Profound Dao?" Yue Xiaoyao hinted sufficiently, then closed his eyes to continue cultivating.
"Um... old man, I...."
"I am not like you, prone to Demonic Possession."
Yue Xiaoyao suddenly opened his eyes, glared at Chen Tianlong exasperatedly.
Chen Tianlong understood the old man’s look and nodded hastily, closed his eyes, and silently wished to exit.
With a swish, Chen Tianlong suddenly felt blankness before darkness overwhelmed him. Upon reopening his eyes, he found himself sitting inside the cave.
Whew!
What kind of mysterious place was that? The environment seemed pretty good, though.
After being startled, Chen Tianlong muttered to himself and refocused on running the Heart Method. This stimulated the Fire Attribute Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the cave to rush into his body, a phenomenon lasting over an hour.
"Boom!"
Once more, his body felt a muffled explosion, caused by a force within scattering the ambient dust everywhere, formidable in power.
Chen Tianlong suddenly felt his body’s absorption cease, instead leaving him feeling incredibly comfortable, indicating a breakthrough was achieved.
Profound Dao attained?
Chen Tianlong was surprised, realizing he seemed to have advanced two levels in one go, crossing a major realm, and that was certainly worth celebrating.
Unexpectedly, this venture to the Black Alliance brought fortuitous breakthroughs, reaching Profound Dao’s first star.
Thinking about this, Chen Tianlong leapt up with excitement. Now he was at Profound Dao’s first star, he could test the strength of the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist, potentially cultivating its fourth and fifth forms, though the fifth form required reaching the seventh star of Profound Dao, which was still some way off.
However, being able to cultivate the fourth form was already very satisfying.
Chen Tianlong eagerly recalled the fourth form’s technique and Heart Method, his mind whirling busily. About five minutes later, he suddenly opened his eyes, the Heart Method seemingly memorized.
Then, after a brief period of preparation, Chen Tianlong simultaneously executed the Condensing Power Technique and Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist Heart Method, achieving seamless integration, thereby maximizing the Frenzied Dragon Fist’s potential.
"Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist Fourth Form!"
Chen Tianlong hummed softly, swiftly practicing the technique, before abruptly launching his right fist forward, crashing into the air ahead.
To his incredible surprise, four massive fists appeared, each blazing with scorching hidden flames that, despite hitting only air, could scorch the surroundings.
"Wow, that’s impressive!" Chen Tianlong was stunned. He hadn’t exerted full power; surely the fourth form was more than four fists. It must still be incomplete.
Otherwise, the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist would be unremarkable compared to the third form, only adding two fists with intensified Fire Attribute burning, which seemed insignificantly different.
To test whether the fourth form held surprises, Chen Tianlong decided to unleash his full power.
He gathered all his strength, executing a Condensing Force Technique, took a deep breath, and turned then struck forward vigorously.
Swoosh!
Again, four fists flew forth, exuding strong Fire Attribute damage, but nothing notably different.
Yet, just in the final moment, a massive fist emerged in the center of the four, veiled in flames, twice the size of the four combined.
Crash!
A crystal coffin seven or eight meters away was shattered by the ferocious fist wind.
Oh no, dreadful.
Chen Tianlong emotionally froze, quickly realizing he nearly bit his fingers off in alarm, having shattered the Black Alliance ancestor’s coffin. If discovered, he’d surely be doomed.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Suddenly, dark weapons flew from the coffin, startling Chen Tianlong, prompting evasive maneuvers.
Soon, after adjustments, something emerged where the darts clustered, activating mechanisms in four cave corners. With a series of clicks, a giant skylight appeared above Chen Tianlong’s head.
This skylight, unlike before, presented no obstacles.
Yikes, could be the exit?
Chen Tianlong cheered; the height from the cave top was merely five or six meters, trivial for Profound Dao’s one-star Chen Tianlong.
Sparing neither thought nor hesitation, Chen Tianlong leapt, grabbing the cave’s edge, pulling himself out.
Above, mountain winds bellowed; he stood atop a high summit of over two hundred meters, surprisingly towering despite perception, revealing the prior upward tunnel path’s rationale.
