Chapter 2539 - 2537: Great Witch Secrets
The formation seals a region, making communication with the outside world impossible.
The Bald Dog shouted and yelled inside the formation, but not a sound could be heard by those outside.
The Little Kirin led everyone to clear the corpses on the island and then had the Black Dragon King bring rain to wash away the Demon Beasts’ blood.
The area they’d just begun to cultivate with Spiritual Energy was once again filled with malicious energy after the wash of Demon Blood.
A torrential rain quickly cleansed the island.
The crimson blood pooled and continuously washed into the lake, dyeing Liangshan Lake red.
The Little Demons responsible for watching over the lake had already fled back to the East Sea in panic.
The Dragon Mother and the Dragon Maiden quickly received word that the entire army had been wiped out, with not a single Water Demon that landed surviving.
The East Sea Dragon Palace was suddenly thrown into chaos. Upon hearing the news of Cang Tianba’s death, the Jiulong Lady fainted directly.
The Dragon Mother lamented loudly, "I told you so many times, this shouldn’t be approached recklessly, but none of you would listen to me! The Dragon King isn’t home, what am I, a poor woman, supposed to do!"
Before everyone, she couldn’t hold back her tears and started wailing.
The Three Seas Dragon King, who had already arrived, hurriedly comforted her, saying, "Sister-in-law, please don’t get too upset. We’ve already sent someone to inquire about Big Brother’s situation, and we should have news soon."
The West Sea Dragon King sighed, "My son Ao Lie already sent you word, telling you not to provoke this gang of rogues, but you wouldn’t listen!"
The Dragon Mother cried mournfully, "Your Big Brother thought the same, but it was that Sea Dragon Clan. They are so arrogant and completely ignore your Big Brother’s words! Time and again, they’ve suffered losses and asked for revenge. Isn’t that courting death?"
The Ninth Princess, having taken a Pill and woken up, cried unhappily upon hearing her mother’s words, "Mother, how could you speak of my husband that way? Didn’t he do all of this for the benefit and reputation of the East Sea? Now he’s dead, and you still look down on him."
"Who’s looking down on him? I can’t even say a word about him? Look at you, refusing to heed my advice. Now, what’s the result? You’re a widow at such a young age,"
The Dragon Mother scolded while crying.
The hall was filled with quarreling.
The Three Seas Dragon King clapped his hands, standing below with a look of helplessness.
In less than a day, the people the Three Seas Dragon King sent out returned and reported the Dragon King’s affairs to everyone.
Only then did they find out that the East Sea Dragon King had been imprisoned by the Jade Emperor in the Heavenly Prison.
The Dragon Mother’s head spun, and she fainted as well.
The Three Seas Dragon King hurriedly made someone give her a Pill, thinking that this fainting spell seemed to run in his sister-in-law’s family.
The West Sea Dragon King urgently questioned his subordinates, "Why would the Jade Emperor do such a thing?"
The subordinates were also unsure, saying, "I heard something was stolen from the Heavenly Court, and it might be related to the Dragon King."
"Stolen?"
The three Dragon Kings exchanged glances, somewhat frustrated, "Is the Jade Emperor deliberately bullying our Dragon Clan? The Heavenly Court lost something; what does that have to do with Big Brother? Even if we Dragons are poor, do we lack anything from the Heavenly Court?"
The Dragon Mother came to her senses and repeatedly bowed, beseeching, "Uncles, please go to the Heavenly Court and find a way to save the Dragon King! If something happens to him, I don’t want to live either."
The Three Seas Dragon King immediately comforted her, "Sister-in-law, you must remain calm. We’ll head to the Heavenly Court right away to see exactly what’s happened."
The Dragon Mother worriedly said, "If you leave, what if those rogues from Liangshan Island come looking for trouble?"
The Three Seas Dragon King thought of a way, "Isn’t the Yunmeng Marsh Dragon King’s son a disciple on that Liangshan Island? Let’s first send someone to feel them out and see how they intend to handle the matter. Also, Sister-in-law, send someone to the Nether Sea to inform your in-laws about what’s happening here. The Sea Dragon Clan has a close relationship with the Kunpeng Ancestor. With their help, we’ll have more leverage."
"Alright, I’ll send someone right away."
The Dragon Mother immediately summoned someone to handle the task, ordering them to bring the Yunmeng Marsh Dragon King over.
At first, they looked down on this clan brother.
On Liangshan Island, the Little Kirin and others planted the flowers and plants they acquired from the Heavenly Court on various mountain tops.
These plants were not Peach Trees, so they grew without much difficulty here.
The Peach Tree has higher soil requirements; it needs the Five-Colored Breath Soil to take root and must be watered with Taiyi True Water to survive.
Long Fei possessed one of these things.
He opened up a Peach Garden on the highest mountain, spreading the Five-Colored Breath Soil on the ground.
After finishing their chores, the Little Kirin and the others took out the Peach Tree and immediately dug a hole to plant it in the ground.
The Peach Spiritual Root had been stored in the Storage Ring for just two days, and its leaves were already showing signs of wilting.
Little Qing, knowledgeable on the subject, worriedly said to Long Fei, "Father, just planting it is not enough. We must irrigate the tree with Taiyi True Water to make it survive."
The Little Kirin wiped the sweat off his forehead and asked, "Where do we find such water?"
Long Fei chuckled lightly, "It’s in the East Sea."
"The East Sea?"
The five Little Kylins widened their eyes and exclaimed, "Really?"
Long Fei responded, "In the East Sea Dragon Palace, there’s a sea eye, which is the source of all waters. Watering the Peach Tree with this water will ensure its survival."
Little Kirin and the four siblings exchanged glances, excitedly shouting, "Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go right away."
In his eyes, the East Sea was like his own backyard.
Anything could be taken at will.
They walked through the Heavenly Palace, so the East Sea was no problem at all.
Long Fei reminded them, "There’s a person sealed within the East Sea’s sea eye. Without breaking that seal, you won’t get the spring water."
"Hmm?"
Everyone looked at Long Fei curiously and asked, "Who would be so idle as to seal someone in a sea eye?"
"That pollutes the environment."
Little Xuan muttered, feeling that Taiyi True Water should remain sacred and untouched as a Water Spirit.
"To be suppressed within a sea eye, that person must have incredible divine skills."
Wang Xiaoya analyzed.
Long Fei nodded, "This person is formidable, possessing divine skills that could destroy heavens and earth. Back then, he disrupted the Three Realms and fought the Ancient Heavenly Court to the end on his own. His body was nearly indestructible, ultimately sealed within the sea eye."
The group was stunned, clicking their tongues in amazement, "Wow, there’s actually such a powerful figure in heaven and earth?"
Wang Xiaoya raised her eyebrows, "How do you know all this?"
Long Fei took a sip of tea and spoke calmly, "I learned from the Demon Race’s inscriptions in the Netherworld.
Xingtian wielded shield and axe, his indomitable spirit ever persistent.
Back when the Immortal Realm and Human Realm were undivided, the heavens had one sovereign.
After the Witch-Demon Grand Formation, the Heavenly Emperor Eastern Emperor Tai Yi fell.
The Human Race’s fortune flourished, gradually becoming the lord of heaven and earth.
The Human Emperor Xuanyuan succeeded as the New Celestial Emperor, called ’Lord Haotian.’
After ascending, he still employed Great Witches to govern the Three Realms.
Later, the Witch Tribe leader Chi You allied with the nine major Witch Tribe clans to rebel, contending for the Heavenly Emperor position with Xuanyuan.
Xingtian, as the Great Witch leader, naturally sided with Chi You.
He was originally a general under Human Race’s Emperor Flame, initially instigating Emperor Flame to vie for Human Race’s fortune against the Yellow Emperor.
Later, Emperor Flame and the Yellow Emperor formed an alliance and voluntarily submitted.
The two major Human Race forces united to decisively defeat the Witch Tribe, forcing them to retreat to the Netherworld, becoming the later Demon Race.
This Deification Catastrophe battered the ancient continent, causing it to completely disintegrate.
The Immortal Realm formed its own region, separating from the Human Realm.
Xingtian, dissatisfied, single-handedly stormed the Heavenly Court, seeking revenge against Lord Haotian.
Lord Haotian used the Xuanyuan Sword to sever his head, but his body did not die, growing eyes and mouths on his belly to continue fighting.
The Human Emperor Xuanyuan, helpless, finally used his entire Essence Blood to channel the power of heaven and earth, sealing Xingtian’s body in the East Sea sea eye.
After the Immortal Realm and the Human Realm divided, all Spiritual Power was taken away.
The Human Realm gradually entered the Dharma-Ending Age, and after the Human Emperor Xuanyuan, the Human Realm Heavenly Court waned generation after generation.
The Deification Catastrophe led to the complete decline of the Human Realm Heavenly Court.
The Immortal Realm established a new Heavenly Court to rule the Three Realms, under the Jade Emperor.
Wang Xiaoya and the five Little Kylins listened with their mouths agape, not expecting ancient events to be like this.
The Little Kirin drooped his head, "This fellow dared to kill the Celestial Emperor; if we go, wouldn’t we be at his mercy?"
Little Qing exclaimed, "If we release such a figure, wouldn’t the heavens and earth be thrown into chaos?"
The Vermilion Bird nodded repeatedly, "We mustn’t release him; let’s search elsewhere for Taiyi True Water."
Little Xuan and Little Bai agreed, "Indeed, we cannot take this risk."
The five of them droopily lowered their heads, completely losing their previous arrogance.
