59: Dragon King

Wanxiang Academy’s back mountain manor.

“Young Master, this is the proceeds from this auction, totaling 52.2 billion Spirit Crystals, 936 billion Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and an additional 600 billion High-Grade Spirit Stones.”

Xuan Yue smiled and handed a Storage Ring to Wu Ning.

“Over 50 billion, much less than last time…”

Wu Ning sighed slightly. After holding more than ten consecutive auctions, he had collected over 800 billion Spirit Crystals.

Now, those Giant forces were almost drained by him.

“Xuan Yue, there’s no need to hold any more auctions.”

After some thought, he took out an ancient bronze mirror and handed it to her. “This is a Quasi-Emperor Weapon called the Floating World Mirror. It possesses extremely strong destructive power. I’m giving it to you.”

“Young Master, how… how dare Xuan Yue accept such a precious item from you!”

“Take it. It’s just a Quasi-Emperor Weapon. You all have worked hard during this time,” Wu Ning said, waving his hand.

“Also, I have one more thing I want to trouble you with…”

There wasn't much profit left in the Profound Sky Continent, so Wu Ning planned to travel through the starry sky to broaden his horizons.

He would also find a place to sell a few Emperor Weapons.

By then, he would almost be able to Breakthrough to the Immortal Realm, and then he could consider returning to the Tai Chu Ancient Realm Wu Clan.

After leaving the Profound Sky, Wu Ning planned to have Xuan Yue secretly look after the people of the Great Jin Prince Yan's Mansion.

He had also informed Li Qingxuan.

This way, he could leave with peace of mind.

“Young Master, rest assured, as long as Xuan Yue lives, she will ensure the safety of everyone in the Prince Yan's Mansion!”

After Xuan Yue left, Wu Ning called Li Yuanbao and the other two over.

After nearly two years of cultivation at Wanxiang Academy, all three had undergone tremendous changes.

It wasn't just their cultivation, but more so their experience and knowledge.

They were all well-traveled individuals, no longer the three bumpkins who had just left Great Jin.

“Boss, are you calling us because you’re preparing to return to Great Jin again?”

Li Yuanbao asked.

In these nearly two years, Wu Ning would take them back to Great Jin every few months.

“Hmm, that’s one reason.”

“But I have something more important to discuss with you.”

Wu Ning looked at them and asked, “I plan to travel through the starry sky recently. Do you want to come along?”

“Traveling through the starry sky?”

Their eyes lit up.

Born between heaven and earth, how could they not yearn for the sea of stars?

“Brother Wu, I want to go!”

Xu Ziqian was the first to speak.

“Boss, count me in!”

“Young Master, wherever you go, I go!”

Wu Ning smiled and said, “Alright then, go back and prepare. Three days from now, I’ll take you back to Great Jin, and a month later, we’ll depart to travel through the starry sky!”

“Oh, and I have something to give you.”

Wu Ning waved his hand, and three drops of Chaotic Source Fluid, exuding a misty glow, appeared before the three of them.

“Swallow them. This item can enhance your Aptitude and also increase your cultivation.”

The three looked at the Chaotic Source Fluid before them, and an inexplicable longing arose in their hearts, making them realize the extraordinary nature of this item; it was definitely a rare treasure.

They had absolute trust in Wu Ning, and upon hearing his words, they didn't hesitate, directly swallowing them.

Boom! Boom!

The next moment, an extremely vast energy surged into their bodies like a torrent. Fortunately, this energy was incredibly gentle, otherwise, it would have instantly burst them.

Subsequently, the aura of the three began to skyrocket madly.

In an instant, they Breakthrough to the Heavenly Palace Realm.

Ten breaths later, they Breakthrough to the King Realm!

One hundred breaths later, they directly entered the Saint Realm!

Wu Ning glanced at the suddenly gloomy sky, waved his hand, and directly led them into the Void Realm.

…

Almost at the same time.

Three mysterious figures appeared above the Endless Sea. They plunged into the sea and headed straight towards the Dragon Palace.

“Demon Lord, why are you not staying in your Demon Domain and running to my Dragon Palace?”

Suddenly, an incomparably majestic voice sounded.

“Dragon Emperor, I have come today to discuss an important matter, which I believe you will definitely be interested in!”

“Oh? For you, Demon Lord, to come in person, I am indeed a little interested…”

A moment later.

In a magnificent grand palace within the Dragon Palace.

“Thunder Ancestor, I didn’t expect you old fellow to still be alive!”

The Dragon Emperor looked at the burly man beside the Demon Lord, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.

When he was still the Dragon Clan Crown Prince, the other party was already a renowned Demon Clan Great Emperor. He hadn't expected him to still be alive after hundreds of thousands of years!

With this old fellow's current strength, he was probably unrivaled in the Profound Sky Continent!

“Ao Cang, when I left the Profound Sky back then, you had already Breakthrough to the Great Emperor Realm. How much have you improved after all these years?”

Thunder Ancestor snorted coldly, and a powerful aura erupted. He had suffered a great loss at the hands of the old Dragon Emperor back then, and now he might have to get it back from his son!

The Dragon Emperor’s gaze turned cold, about to erupt.

He was confident that even if he wasn't as good as the other party, he was certainly not far off, and with the Dragon Clan’s Legacy, he could definitely fight.

Seeing the atmosphere turn sour, the Demon Lord quickly said, “Both of you, calm down. The matter we are discussing today concerns the fate of our two races, and we must not delay the grand plan due to some trivial matters!”

Hearing him say this, Thunder Ancestor snorted coldly and retracted his aura.

The Dragon Emperor’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Concerns the fate of our two races?”

“Demon Lord, are you planning to make a move on the Human Race?”

The Demon Lord’s intentions were known to all.

Upon seeing Thunder Ancestor, he pretty much understood what the Demon Lord meant by an important matter.

The Demon Lord nodded, “To be honest, Dragon Emperor, I have come today precisely for this matter. I want to invite the Dragon Clan to join forces with our Yao Race. We will surely be able to flatten the Human Race in one fell swoop!”

The Dragon Emperor said calmly, “My Dragon Clan controls the four seas and has always kept to ourselves with the Human Race. Why should we join forces with you?”

“Dragon Emperor, although the sea is rich, the continent is the center of heaven and earth. How can your Dragon Clan, with its Legacy from ancient times, be confined to the sea for generations?”

The Dragon Emperor was somewhat moved. Their Dragon Clan had indeed coveted the continent for a long time, but the Human Race had dominated the continent for millions of years, and their Legacy was unfathomable.

Making a move on the Human Race was too risky.

As if seeing his concerns, the Demon Lord continued, “Making a move on the Human Race will not only involve our two races but also the Barbarian Race and the Ice and Snow Race…”

The Demon Lord briefly outlined his plan, which was to use the Barbarian Race and the Ice and Snow Race as cannon fodder to deplete the Human Race’s Legacy.

After annihilating the Human Race, their Yao Race and Dragon Clan would divide the world.

The Dragon Emperor was not an indecisive person. After hearing the Demon Lord’s plan, he made his decision.

“This plan is feasible, but I require your Yao Race to swear a Heart Demon oath as proof that after the Human Race is annihilated, you will share the world with our Dragon Clan.”

“Haha, that’s certainly no problem!”

After a long while, the grand plan to annihilate the Human Race was finalized.

The Demon Lord’s expression suddenly became solemn, “Before we make a move on the Human Race, one person must be eliminated first!”

“Oh? Who is it?”
