118: Five Styles of the Divine Dragon

At the Family meeting, Long Aotian stated that his ability to cross the Yunmeng Marsh and lead the Long Family out of the Eastern Barrens was not an empty boast.

Leaving aside other things, just to cross the Yunmeng Marsh, Immortal-grade Magic Treasures are needed for defense, and Long Aotian’s Immortal Lord storage ring contains thousands of Immortal-grade Magic Treasures.

The wealthy Long Aotian, even if he were to give one to each Cultivator Disciple of the Long Family, which would be about two thousand items, he would still have many left.

Moreover, after browsing Ao Zhan’s tens of thousands of years of unsealed memories, he finally understood why the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Immortal Ancestor of the Imperial Ye Family said that the most precious thing in the Eastern Barrens was the thundercloud in the Yunmeng Marsh.

According to Ao Zhan’s memories, the reason why the Eastern Barrens was enveloped by the Yunmeng Marsh was indeed related to the World-Destroying war that took place back then.

Ao Zhan had killed a powerful Cultivator named Thundercloud Heavenly Lord in the Eastern Barrens, but what shocked Ao Zhan immensely was that the true form of this Thundercloud Heavenly Lord was a special thundercloud whose origin even he did not know.

When killing Thundercloud Heavenly Lord, Ao Zhan could at most reduce Thundercloud Heavenly Lord to his initial state, but he could not make the thundercloud truly disappear.

The thundercloud, in its initial state, quickly formed a mist around their battlefield. These mists were initially the smoke released when the thundercloud discharged lightning. Later, the speed at which these mists dissipated seemed unable to keep up with the speed at which the thundercloud released lightning and created mist, eventually forming the terrifying and The most dangerous placeYunmeng Marsh over the Yunmeng Sea.

Developing to the present, the Yunmeng Marsh has enveloped the entire Eastern Barrens, almost cutting off communication between the Eastern Barrens and Dongzhou, as well as other states.

Ao Zhan was helpless against the thundercloud in its initial state. He could not imprison the thundercloud; as soon as he approached the thundercloud, it would flee at an unimaginable speed.

The Tribulation Transcendence Realm Immortal Ancestor of the Imperial Ye Family was not wrong in saying that the greatest treasure of the Eastern Barrens was the thundercloud, because even a powerful Cultivator like Ao Zhan could do nothing against its existence.

When Ao Zhan established Dragon Peak in the Cloud Palace for his daughter, the high-ranking members of the Cloud Palace once asked Ao Zhan to deal with the thundercloud in the Yunmeng Marsh, but Ao Zhan stated his helplessness and even declared that the thundercloud was a rare treasure in the Universe. Whoever could collect the thundercloud might have the potential to become the strongest existence between heaven and earth... The thundercloud in the Yunmeng Marsh is the most important treasure of the Eastern Barrens, and this saying spread among the people at the top of the Eastern Barrens’ pyramid.

Knowing that the thundercloud in the Yunmeng Marsh was actually the initial state that Thundercloud Heavenly Lord transformed into after his Revered Master killed Thundercloud Heavenly Lord, how could Long Aotian not be moved by this thundercloud?

Perhaps Fan Xiu came to the Eastern Barrens with the purpose of collecting this thundercloud? But even his Revered Master could do nothing against this thundercloud, so how could Fan Xiu possibly collect it?

Only he, perhaps, could give it a try!

Ao Zhan could not imprison the thundercloud, which does not mean he cannot imprison the thundercloud. When he breaks through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, truly touching the Profound Truth of the Dao, the Laws of Heaven and Earth, and even Rules, his Time Spiritual Root and Space Spiritual Root will begin to exert their initial effects, allowing him to use the Laws of Time and Space to imprison the thundercloud.

The thundercloud escaped his Revered Master's Void Rule imprisonment, so it is likely that the Law of Space may not necessarily be able to imprison the thundercloud, but Long Aotian does not believe that the Law of Time also cannot imprison it.

The Law of Time can make time stand still and reverse time. Can the thundercloud escape that?

He, Long Aotian, is the bane of the thundercloud!

As long as he takes away the thundercloud, Long Aotian does not believe that under the refinement of the Chaos Dao Art, he will not be able to subdue the thundercloud. And even if he cannot subdue the thundercloud, once it is taken into his Nine Treasures Glazed Chaos World Tower, it can forget about coming out to continue harming the Eastern Barrens.

Without the thundercloud, the Yunmeng Marsh, which may have accumulated mist for hundreds of thousands of years, might take decades or hundreds of years to dissipate, or perhaps never dissipate. But as long as there is no lightning enhancement in the mist, crossing the Yunmeng Marsh will no longer require Immortal-grade Magic Treasures for defense. Only very ordinary Magical Artifacts will be needed to guard against sneak attacks from sea monsters in the Yunmeng Sea.

This is also the fundamental reason why Long Aotian said that it would not be long before communication between the Eastern Barrens and Dongzhou would be opened, and it would become very simple for people to leave the Eastern Barrens.

Now that he is in the second stage of the Mahayana Realm, is he still far from breaking through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm? Perhaps for others it is still far, but for him, it will not take many years.

The nine-fold time flow rate of the Treasure Pagoda is beyond what outsiders can imagine.

A Yunmeng Marsh without the thundercloud is like a tiger without teeth, causing almost no harm to Cultivators crossing the Yunmeng Marsh, especially powerful Cultivators... Dragon Peak entered a frenzy of closed-door Cultivation.

It is worth mentioning that although Long Aotian did not show favoritism by allowing his Family members to Cultivate in the core gate, he did show favoritism in the rules. He gathered the residences of the Long Family leaders from each generation and placed them all in the core gate.

That is to say, the leader of the 'Zhan' generation, Dragon War God, who is Long Aotian's biological great-Great-Grandfather; the leader of the 'Shi' generation, Long Shijie, who is Long Aotian's biological Great-Grandfather; the leader of the 'Wu' generation, Long Wudi, who is Long Aotian's biological grandfather; and the leader of the 'Bu' generation, Long Bubai, who is Long Aotian's father, all entered the core gate to Cultivate.

In addition, Hua Buwan and Hua Buqi were also specially permitted to enter the core gate to Cultivate. Hua Buwan is Long Aotian's biological mother, and no one dared to say anything. Hua Buqi is Long Aotian's maternal aunt who often took care of him since childhood, and their relationship was even closer than with his biological mother, Hua Buwan, so no one dared to say anything either.

How close was Long Aotian’s relationship with his maternal aunt? There is a rumor in the Long Family that Long Aotian did not grow up on his mother’s milk, but on his maternal aunt’s milk, which shows how close Long Aotian was with his maternal aunt.

And not just his maternal aunt, his eldest maternal aunt and second maternal aunt were also very good to Long Aotian, it's just that they weren't as reckless as his maternal aunt, who truly doted on Long Aotian as her own son.

Hua Buqi was very happy and satisfied with the special care given to her Nephew. She also became more diligent in her Cultivation, hoping to break through to the Spirit Division Realm as soon as possible, so as to avoid people gossiping about her Nephew. Although she didn't think anyone harbored such thoughts, she still wanted to do her best... Long Aotian and Ao Jingtain also entered the peak Revered Master's Immortal Cave for closed-door Cultivation.

After much deliberation, Long Aotian decided to observe Ao Jingtain for a period of time before deciding whether to take her into the Treasure Pagoda to Cultivate together.

She shared the peak Revered Master's Immortal Cave with him, she was Ao Zhan's Reincarnation as a daughter, and she might also know about the existence of the Treasure Pagoda. Long Aotian had basically and gradually accepted Ao Jingtain in his heart, but the existence of the Treasure Pagoda was too important. For safety's sake, he still felt it was better to observe her for a while, and also give himself some time to calm down and see if his decision was just a momentary impulse or a rash one.

Entering the Treasure Pagoda for closed-door Cultivation once again, Long Aotian decided that this time his main focus would be on Cultivating combat Martial Skills.

Ao Zhan's memories contained many combat Martial Skills, but not many of them made Long Aotian's heart itch with desire. One particular Divine Dragon Five Styles combat Martial Skill especially moved Long Aotian.

Namely:

Divine Dragon First Style: Dragon Roar – Shakes the Heavens

Divine Dragon Second Style: Dragon Palm – Mountains Collapse, Earth Splits

Divine Dragon Third Style: Dragon Fist – Power Breaks All Laws

Divine Dragon Fourth Style: Dragon Soul – Dominates All Ages

Divine Dragon Fifth Style: Dragon Scale – Destroys Heaven and Earth

These five Divine Dragon combat Martial Skills, with sound wave attacks, power attacks, Dao attacks, Soul attacks, and ultimate critical strikes, are extremely terrifying. Long Aotian decided to learn this Divine Dragon Five Styles combat Martial Skill...
