Dragon Bone Valley.
Less than a month after the battle between Su Zimo and Long Yang, the Illumination Dragon Elder appeared and conferred Su Zimo as the young master of the Illumination Dragon lineage. He gave him the name — Long Zhu!
After another half a year, Su Zimo had already integrated into the Dragon Bone Valley completely.
Firstly, the battle half a year ago made him famous and obtained the recognition of many Dragons, especially the Illumination Dragon lineage.
Secondly, the status of the young master of the Illumination Dragons was far above that of the other dragons.
Thirdly, Su Zimo had already become the number one of the Hidden Dragon Ranking!
Another point was that Long Yang, who had already fallen to second on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, did not become enemies with Su Zimo after his defeat. Instead, he became extremely close to the latter.
Every time someone wanted to challenge Su Zimo, Long Yang would take the initiative to stop them.
In the past half a year, all the Dragons that fought Long Yang were defeated.
If they could not even defeat the second on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, there was no need to challenge the top!
It was not only Long Yang. Long Xi of the Illumination Dragon lineage would often run to the Illumination Dragon lineage as well.
Furthermore, she had changed from her violent temper and became much gentler, causing the dragons to click their tongues in wonder and envy.
However, Su Zimo found it difficult to bear.
Even if this body was the true body of a Dragon, he had no intention of becoming Dao companions with Dragons.
He refused to agree to the marriage alliance that the Illumination Dragons elder urged him to. Annoyed by the urging, he went into seclusion and refused to come out.
In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.
…
Bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley.
Morning. The sun rose and rays shone on the ancient temple, illuminating a black-haired cultivator.
Su Zimo opened his eyes slowly and exhaled deeply.
Ten years ago, he had just entered the Void Reversion realm and reconstructed his body.
Ten years later, he was already at the peak of the mid-stage Void Reversion realm!
This cultivation speed could be said to be quite terrifying.
The higher one's cultivation realm was, the more difficult it was to raise it.
When Su Zimo was in the Nascent Soul Realm, it took him a hundred years to reach the peak of the mid-Nascent Soul Realm from the early-Nascent Soul Realm!
However, it only took him ten years to reach the Void Reversion realm!
When he was in the Nascent Soul realm, Su Zimo not only had to cultivate, but he also had to constantly nurture Qinglian.
But now, the Creation Qinglian had disappeared, leaving only a bare Lotus Throne and fifty-four Seeds of Qinglian, no longer needing the Primordial Spirit to nurture them.
As a result, Su Zimo's cultivation speed increased greatly!
Secondly, when he was at the Nascent Soul realm, he cultivated the top cultivation techniques of the immortal and Buddhist sects.
At the Void Reversion realm, he cultivated the top cultivation techniques of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects!
Furthermore, the Demonic Sect's cultivation technique came from a Demonic Sect's Half-Martial Ancestor.
Amongst them, there was utterly no need for Su Zimo to comprehend the comprehensions and experiences within the Dao Heart Devilseed Scripture.
After devouring the memories of a Half-Martial Ancestor of the fiend sects, it was as though he had been enlightened. He could directly comprehend the essence and profundities of the fiend technique!
With that, he was already at the peak of the mid-stage Void Reversion realm in just ten years!
He had been stuck at this realm for a month.
Su Zimo could vaguely sense a bottleneck.
If he continued to cultivate in seclusion at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley, he might not be able to break through this bottleneck even after spending another ten or even dozens of years.
Furthermore, he wanted to move after a long period of silence. Now that he had returned to the North Region, he could visit some old friends there.
After bidding farewell to Monk Yuan Bei and the red-headed ghost, Su Zimo left the Dragon Burial Valley and headed towards the capital of Great Zhou.
This time round, there was no longer a need for him to hide after returning to the North Region.
The impact of the battle in the Dao Inheritance Ground was immense.
Later on, the Di Clan's Half-Martial Ancestor was severely injured, Chaos Essence Sect's Mighty Figure died and a few Conjoint Body Mighty Figures of super sects fled the Dragon Burial Valley in defeat – the impact on the entire cultivation world was even greater!
At the very least, up till now, no sect dared to target him under the guise of killing an alien race.
There was also no Conjoint Body Mighty Figure like the Dharma Daojun who dared to attack him rashly across major cultivation realms!
Except for fights of the same cultivation realm.
Of course, in the eyes of many cultivators, Su Zimo had already fallen from his pedestal.
Without the divine phoenix bone, body and creation Qinglian, Su Zimo could not even be considered a paragon in the eyes of the cultivators!
Even if he could return alive, he would vanish into the crowd and was not worth mentioning.
At that moment, no one realized that the monster incarnate that once caused countless paragons to tremble in fear had already been reborn!
After entering the territory of Great Zhou, Su Zimo was in no hurry. He advanced and surveyed the mountains and rivers along the way.
All these years, under the governance of Ji Yaoxue, Great Zhou was even stronger than before. The country was strong and the citizens lived in peace.
More than a hundred years ago, the allied army of Great Shang, Great Xia and Great You invaded Great Zhou and was buried by Su Zimo in Cang Lang Mountain Range.
After that battle, the destiny of Great Zhou had already strengthened!
Su Zimo was happy for Ji Yaoxue as well.
Although the two of them were fated, they were not on the same path at the end of the day.
As the Empress of Great Zhou, Ji Yaoxue naturally wanted to create a strong dynasty and usher in a peaceful era.
However, Su Zimo had to cultivate continuously and pursue that ethereal Great Dao so that he could catch up to Die Yue!
Even so, Ji Yaoxue had an extremely important position in Su Zimo's heart.
He could not forget the way Ji Yaoxue looked at him before he condensed his Qi back then, without any hint of contempt.
He could not forget the Sky Treasure Badge that Ji Yaoxue gave him.
More than that, he could not forget that a hundred years ago, there was a woman who would brave the dangers to come to the Dragon Burial Valley every year to pour her heart out.
If not for Ji Yaoxue, he would not even have been able to see Su Hong for the last time!
Su Hong was his elder brother.
Back then, Glass Palace hunted him down.
Nobody dared to have anything to do with him, much less take in Su Hong.
Ji Yaoxue was the only one who risked her life to bring Su Hong out and hid him in the capital of Great Zhou for 20 years.
Su Zimo remembered all of that friendship in his heart.
Perhaps he might not have anything to do with Ji Yaoxue in this lifetime.
However, as long as he was alive, he would ensure her safety for the rest of her life!
Before long, Su Zimo suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Not far away, there was a layer of dark clouds that was formed by extremely heavy grievous qi and did not dissipate!
Su Zimo moved and rushed over.
It didn't take long for him to arrive.
This was an average-sized village with about forty families.
At this moment, corpses were strewn all over the ground in the village!
Every single corpse was rotten and filled with poison boils. There was a huge hole in their abdomens and the blood that flowed had long dried up.
Every corpse's eyes were wide open, and they died with grievances. Their deaths were miserable, and it was a shocking sight!
The blood was all black!
Frowning slightly, Su Zimo released his spirit consciousness and enveloped the entire village.
There were more than a hundred people in the village. Be it men or women, old or young, all of them were dead without a single survivor!
Their deaths were similar. Poison boils grew on their bodies and their blood turned black. There was a huge hole in their abdomens, as though they were torn apart by something!
That did not seem like the doing of demon beasts.
However, Su Zimo did not sense any aura left behind by cultivators on those mortals either.
Those mortals died in a strange manner!
Su Zimo's expression darkened.
This was something that happened in the mortal world and had nothing to do with him.
However, when he saw those defenseless mortals meet with such a calamity, he could not help but recall the calamity that the citizens of Yan Country suffered in the past.
That scene strengthened his resolve to establish his Dao!
PS: I'm stuck. There's a huge plot coming up and I haven't thought of many details yet. I don't want to deal with it casually. Sorry, I only have one update for today.
