Chapter 1920 - 1948: Breaking the Oath
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable easily dodged the Primordial Spirit, completely preventing the Primordial Spirit from making contact. It seemed like the Primordial Spirit became anxious, frantically lunging at Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, but Emperor Yun Dao Venerable continued to evade with ease, continuously toying with the Primordial Spirit, denying it access to the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit.
The Primordial Spirit desperately reached for the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit in Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s hand, the aura of the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit continually spreading out, its fragrance constantly stimulating the senses of the Primordial Spirit, tantalizing its taste buds.
Yet, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable gave the Primordial Spirit no opportunity at all, the Primordial Spirit simply couldn’t touch the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit.
The Primordial Spirit, as if going mad, frantically lunged toward Emperor Yun Dao Venerable.
However, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable gave it no such chance, constantly dodging, and soon, nearly half an incense stick’s worth of time had passed.
At this point, the Primordial Spirit finally stopped, seemingly realizing that if Emperor Yun Dao Venerable was unwilling, it would never obtain the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit from his hand. It was simply out of reach.
However, the madness and desire in the Primordial Spirit’s gaze did not diminish in the slightest.
At this moment, colorful lights erupted from the Primordial Spirit, and his body began to transform.
In no time, the Primordial Spirit transformed into a small boy of about two or three years old.
The little boy the Primordial Spirit transformed into was incredibly cute, with big, round eyes, like a porcelain doll, chubby and white, but his gaze was fixed intently on the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit in Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s hand, filled with longing.
"Give...give me..." the Primordial Spirit uttered in a tender, childish voice, looking at Emperor Yun Dao Venerable.
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s lips curved upward slightly, feeling he was about to succeed: "I can give it to you, but you must promise to come with me. How about it?" At this moment, as if bewitched, the Primordial Spirit agreed without hesitation: "Okay!"
Hearing the Primordial Spirit’s words, everyone was taken aback, their eyes showing signs of tension.
They hadn’t expected the Primordial Spirit to agree to Emperor Yun Dao Venerable so easily. If Emperor Yun Dao Venerable truly obtained the Primordial Spirit, within ten years, his power could reach an incredibly terrifying level, and by then, no one in the Cangxuan Realm would be a match for him.
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable would become the true overlord of the Cangxuan Realm, an invincible presence within it.
However, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable did not so easily trust the words of the Primordial Spirit and said, "Then swear to the Heavenly Dao that after I give you the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit, you will leave with me; otherwise, may you be willing to suffer the Heavenly Dao Thunder Punishment and be completely obliterated!"
The Primordial Spirit showed no hesitation whatsoever, directly making a Heavenly Dao oath: "I, the Primordial Spirit, swear to the Heavenly Dao, that if I obtain the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit, I am willing to go with you. If I break this oath, I am willing to accept the Heavenly Dao Thunder Punishment and be completely obliterated!" As his words fell, a rumbling sound of the Heavenly Dao echoed in the sky.
"Boom~~" Upon hearing the rumbling of the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao oath was established, and a smile appeared on Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s face.
It was now almost certain that the Primordial Spirit belonged to Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, and everyone’s eyes showed envy, while the eyes of the Primordial Spirit showed excitement, staring at Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit.
"Give it to me!" the Primordial Spirit eagerly looked at Emperor Yun Dao Venerable and said loudly.
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable directly tossed the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit in his hand to the Primordial Spirit. The Primordial Spirit, in a hurry, caught the Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit and quickly placed it in his mouth, swallowing it down.
"Crunch, crunch~~" The Primordial Spirit chewed with large bites, a look of intoxication in his eyes, thoroughly enjoying it.
In less than thirty breaths, the Primordial Spirit had swallowed the entire Dragon Blood Spirit Fruit into his stomach.
"Burp~~" After finishing, the Primordial Spirit let out a satisfying burp, then returned to his stone platform, lay down once more, and began to rest. Emperor Yun Dao Venerable smiled while looking at the Primordial Spirit: "Come with me..."
However, the Primordial Spirit just lay on his stone platform, unmoving, with no intention of leaving.
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable frowned directly, his tone becoming heavier, saying loudly: "Come with me!"
Nonetheless, the Primordial Spirit remained leisurely, lying on his stone platform, closing his eyes, and completely ignored Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, showing no intention of following him, making Emperor Yun Dao Venerable anxious.
"Didn’t you hear me when I said come with me?" Emperor Yun Dao Venerable shouted angrily, but the Primordial Spirit acted as if he saw Emperor Yun Dao Venerable as air, completely ignoring him, rendering his shouts ineffective.
At this moment, Tianxing stepped forward and said, "The time of one incense stick has ended, let the next one proceed..."
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s body shook violently, and his eyes revealed a look of madness, roaring loudly: "He hasn’t left with me yet! He has already made a Heavenly Dao oath, so he must follow me, unless he wants to break the oath?"
As he spoke, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s eyes showed killing intent, contemplating forcibly taking it.
However, seeing Tianxing, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s gaze reflected apprehension as he looked at Tianxing: "If he doesn’t follow me, he will break the Heavenly Dao oath. Doesn’t he fear the punishment of the Heavenly Dao?"
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable was extremely unwilling, yet Ye Feng let out a cold laugh: "Ridiculous! The Heavenly Dao and the Origin are originally from the same root; the Heavenly Dao is like the older brother of the Origin. How could a mere Heavenly Dao oath matter? When it comes to his own younger brother slightly breaking an oath, do you think the Heavenly Dao would really inflict Thunder Punishment?
Making the Primordial Spirit swear a Heavenly Dao oath was sheer foolishness, the Heavenly Dao oath has no binding power over the Primordial Spirit!" After hearing Ye Feng’s words, everyone suddenly realized why the Primordial Spirit had agreed so easily to Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s conditions and made a Heavenly Dao oath, as it held no constraint over the Primordial Spirit.
Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s expression turned very unpleasant.
