Chapter 75 Dragon Slaying
"Is it over there..." A succession of figures flew rapidly towards the location, all of them mighty warriors. Originally they were discussing the matter of dragon slaying, but now, suspecting the appearance of a Supreme Treasure, they hastened towards the spot.
But by the time these powerful individuals arrived, the place was already deserted.
Lin Feng had left one step ahead of them.
"What is this treasure? Such an ancient aura," one warrior was moved, sensing the ancient breath confined within the Chaos Ancestral Qi—mysterious and noble.
However, there was now no trace of the Supreme Treasure to be found, and everyone was considerably annoyed for being a step too late.
"Let's go, look around."
One after another, the warriors flew off into the distance in search of the whereabouts of the "Chaos Ancient Lamp."
At the summit of a mountain some ten miles away, Lin Feng let out a sigh of relief.
It was fortunate that he had left in time. Otherwise, being cornered by these people would have been quite troublesome, but happily, everything had gone smoothly thus far.
Actually, even before this, Lin Feng had not anticipated that the Chaos Ancient Lamp would cause such a stir.
Only now did Lin Feng realize how extraordinary the Chaos Ancient Lamp truly was.
This was indeed a Chaos Supreme Treasure.
Although it had just been forged, it had already resonated with the Great Tao. One could imagine that if Lin Feng's Cultivation were to increase in the future, and the Chaos Ancient Lamp grew along with Lin Feng's cultivation, it would inevitably become a terrifying weapon of mass destruction.
Fire Dragon Ridge became bustling with activity, with many talking about the enigmatic ancient treasure.
Many Cultivators also continued to search, hoping to find some clues.
After searching for a while, those top-tier warriors who had found no trace of the "mysterious ancient treasure" gave up their search and re-entered the depths of Fire Dragon Ridge.
Lin Feng searched many places but couldn't find the "second Green Stone Martial Talisman."
Therefore, he had already decided to give up.
He simply entered the deeper parts of Fire Dragon Ridge, quietly waiting to witness these significant figures slay the dragon, an event he had yet to see.
Dragon slaying had always been a story of myth and legend.
Deep within Fire Dragon Ridge, numerous Cultivators gathered, not only descendants from the Ancient Sacred Lands but also those from Immortal Dynasties, sects, and old aristocratic families, and of course, many Loose Cultivators as well.
Most of these people were there to watch the excitement, with the actual dragon slaying being undertaken by the Three Ancient Sacred Lands.
Lin Feng saw Qing Yao, Dream Xuan Immortal, and others, but as they were with their sect, Lin Feng did not approach to disturb them.
He also saw Jin Yichen and Qin Mubai—their figures casting a youyou light in Lin Feng's eyes.
Lin Feng suspected their involvement in Zixiao's tragic death back then.
"Wuliang Taoist Venerable! Donor, you are honored!"
The Wuliang Taoist walked over, flicking his horsetail whisk.
"So it's the Taoist master. I didn't expect the Taoist master to come for the excitement as well, what a pleasure!" Lin Feng said enthusiastically upon seeing the Wuliang Taoist.
Having bought the Devouring Sky Vase, a treasure against the heavens, for fifty thousand Gold Coins at the Wuliang Taoist's stall was really a steal.
The Wuliang Taoist said, "Poor Dao observed the night sky and saw that young friend is facing a calamity of blood light! However, resolving this calamity is no easy task."
Lin Feng rolled his eyes. Was this damn Taoist cursing him?
Lin Feng shook his fist and said, "Whether I'm facing a calamity of blood light is unclear, but if you continue to spout nonsense in front of me, I know you will face such a calamity!"
The Wuliang Taoist shrank his neck in fear and said, "Donor, please do not be angry, please do not be angry, every word poor Dao says is true."
Lin Feng frowned slightly, always feeling that the Wuliang Taoist was a bit deceptive.
He said, "What exactly is the situation? Speak, Taoist. If what you say holds true, I will certainly not treat you poorly."
"The Western White Tiger governs slaughter, and you, Donor, have traces of the White Tiger on you. Clouds loom with dark Qi, evidently, a sign of a fatal disaster. But you need not fear, Donor, for poor Dao has ways to help you resolve it."
The Wuliang Taoist said confidently.
"I ask for your esteemed advice," Lin Feng implored.
The Wuliang Taoist stretched out his right hand and rubbed it together.
Lin Feng understood and produced a Crystal Card, saying, "This is a Crystal Card worth ten million Gold Coins, just a small token, Taoist, please accept it with a smile."
The Wuliang Taoist smiled faintly and said, "Donor has misunderstood my intentions. I am not interested in these worldly possessions."
Lin Feng was at a loss for words. Not interested in worldly possessions? But why did you sneak into Yunyu Pavilion and peddle those trinkets in the first place?
How can someone be so shameless?
"Then, Taoist, what are you interested in?" Lin Feng asked.
"Ahem! Some days ago, I inadvertently sold a treasure to the donor by mistake. If the donor would be willing to return that item to me, I would..." The Wuliang Taoist began to speak earnestly.
Before the Wuliang Taoist could finish, Lin Feng turned and walked away, coveting my "Devouring Sky Vase", why don't you just drop dead.
Of course, Lin Feng had no intention of handing over the Devouring Sky Vase to the Wuliang Taoist.
The Wuliang Taoist chased after him, saying, "Donor, a disaster of blood and light beckons, don't you want to resolve it?"
Bang!
Replying to the Wuliang Taoist was Lin Feng's fist, which sent the Wuliang Taoist flying.
"Disaster of blood and light my ass!"
...
Boom!
In the distance, a powerful aura spread through the heavens as an elderly figure stepped forward.
The elderly figure exuded an air of a refined Taoist. His arrival caused a stir of exclamations—it was Yuwen Kong, an elder of the Purple Light Sacred Land.
Soon after, another powerhouse arrived. This was a beautiful woman dressed in a snow-white gown, her perfect figure was tightly enveloped within the long dress, her delicate and exquisite figure matched with her peerless celestial beauty; she was truly a supreme beauty among beauties.
This woman was Hua Hongyan from the Heavenly Pool Sacred Land, one of its elders.
"Both have arrived!" exclaimed a third powerful figure as he approached. This was a middle-aged man, tall and sturdy in stature, with every step exuding authority.
"Zhangsun Feng! The brother of the Island Master of Penglai Immortal Island!"
Someone cried out in surprise. This person was no simple character either—the younger brother of Penglai Sacred Land's Island Master, his combat power was also known to be heaven-defying.
Elders from the Three Ancient Sacred Lands had arrived, ready to slay the dragon today, and now, crowds of people had come to watch the battle.
"Let's get started. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it is for us." Yuwen Kong of the Purple Light Sacred Land spoke.
"Agreed!" Hua Hongyan and Zhangsun Feng had no objections.
Boom!
The three powerhouses flew towards the depths.
Everyone was anxiously looking into the depths, was the dragon slaying about to begin?
Whine...
Not long after the three experts flew into the depths of the volcano, an angry dragon's roar echoed from within.
"Rumble..."
Following that, the ground shook as if the mountains themselves were trembling.
The three powerhouses surged up from the depths of the volcano.
And endless flames spread out from within the volcano, turning the entire sky into a sea of fire.
Then, a thousand-meter-long fiery red dragon burst forth from the depths of the volcano into the sky.
The dragon was majestic, its horns like a deer's, a head like a cow's, a mouth like a donkey's, eyes like a shrimp's, ears like an elephant's, scales like a fish's, a belly like a snake's, and feet like a phoenix's - its dragon power was vast and spanned a hundred thousand li.
This was not a dragon of the Western Series but a thousand-meter-long Eastern Divine Dragon.
"Heaven above, an Eastern Divine Dragon!" Countless people were visibly moved, their eyes filled with shock as they looked towards the great dragon.
The Eastern Divine Dragon, which ranks alongside the Phoenix and the Qilin, was a Divine Beast of the same level.
