"Humph!"
Against the incoming scorching dragon flames, the old man's expression did not change as he harrumphed coldly. With a flick of his wrist, he opened his folding fan and released an incomparably resplendent golden light!
The folding fan in the old man's hands seemed to have transformed into a blazing sun, emitting a bedazzling golden light.
Instantly, all the spectators in the capital, be it cultivators or mortals, felt a piercing pain in their eyes. Their vision was drowned by the endless light and they were momentarily blinded.
The crowd outside the capital was the closest to the battlefield and cried out in pain. Instinctively, they tilted their heads and closed their eyes as tears streamed down their faces.
"Roar!"
The divine dragon seemed to have recognized the folding fan in the old man's hands as it let out a deep growl with a wary look in its eyes.
Swash!
Wielding the folding fan, the old man swiped forward.
The incoming green dragon flames were like a piece of cloth that was split in the middle by the folding fan and slid to the sides!
Almost instantly, the old man arrived before the divine dragon.
The divine dragon raised its head and straightened its body, reaching out with a pair of gigantic dragon claws to grab the old man viciously!
The old man's expression did not change and he did not dodge or retreat. Instead, he simply extended his arm and clenched his fist, punching towards the incoming dragon claws.
Bang!
There was a deafening bang. Many cultivators outside the capital could not withstand it and fainted on the spot.
The entire monarch city trembled slightly under the reverberation of this voice!
A series of cracks appeared in the void at the center of the collision. It was pitch-black within and emitted a chilling aura that was frightening!
Even the void was cracking!
The old man's seemingly small body remained motionless in midair. On the other hand, the divine dragon was the one that was pushed back.
After that punch, the old man swept the folding fan in his hands forward and sliced across the divine dragon's body with an ear-piercing sound. It was as though metal was being sliced across a mirror, causing one's teeth to ache.
A flash of blood appeared.
A stream of dragon blood splattered and dyed the skies red!
A gigantic gash appeared on the side of the dragon's body. The dragon scales had already been scraped off, revealing the scarlet flesh within.
With a tragic cry, the divine dragon soared into the air and soared above the nine firmaments.
The old man held the folding fan in one hand and placed the other behind his back. He looked at the divine dragon in the clouds indifferently without giving chase.
The Divine Dragon turned around and glared at the old man. His eyes were filled with murderous intent and unwillingness.
However, it was clearly aware that if it continued to deal with this old man, then it was very likely that it would be buried here!
"Roar!"
The Divine Dragon let out a long roar into the sky. Riding on the clouds, it sped into the distance and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
After the divine dragon escaped, the old man closed his folding fan but did not leave immediately.
The old man's gaze landed on a spot not far away.
There was nothing there, but the old man continued to stare at it, a hint of warning in his eyes.
After a long time, the old man withdrew his gaze and heaved a sigh of relief. With a wave of his sleeve, he vanished.
…
Within the capital, many cultivators only reacted to the situation a long time after the old man disappeared, bursting into a commotion.
"Did you guys see that? It's actually a divine dragon!"
"So this kind of ancient creature really does exist in this world. Now that I've seen it today, I have no regrets in this life."
"This Divine Dragon's aura is too terrifying. Even from so far away, I feel a sense of trepidation, as though I could die at any moment!"
Many cultivators gathered together with excited expressions as they discussed spiritedly.
Be it Foundation Establishment Cultivators or Perfected Jin Dan, these cultivators might not even get to see the true appearance of Dragons in their entire lives.
In fact, most of the cultivators were like Su Zimo and thought that the Divine Dragon was merely an illusory legend that was conjectured by some people.
How could there be such a powerful and terrifying living being in Tianhuang Mainland?
But now that everyone saw it with their own eyes, they truly felt that the Divine Dragon outside the capital was far stronger than they had imagined and was even more terrifying than the legends!
"Just who was it that was able to stop such a powerful existence?"
The Divine Dragon was already so strong. Just Now, what cultivation realm was the person who stopped it?
"I don't know."
"I can't see clearly."
Everyone shook their heads.
This great battle, everyone saw it clearly and vividly.
Everyone saw the Divine Dragon coiling in midair as well.
However, no one saw the person who was fighting against the Divine Dragon clearly.
A Perfected Jin Dan said hesitantly, "That person was shrouded in a layer of mist the entire time and couldn't be seen clearly. He seemed to be a middle-aged man."
"Where did that Divine Dragon come from? Why is it here?"
"I'm not sure."
"I have a feeling that something big is going to happen in the Tianhuang Mainland North Region."
Although Su Zimo looked calm on the surface when he heard the discussions around him, his heart was in turmoil!
Nobody knew the background of the Divine Dragon better than him.
This Divine Dragon was the one he saw in the primordial ruin!
Naturally, his motive for coming here was self-evident as well.
It was to hunt them down!
Su Zimo had long known that the moment they ate the dragon egg, they would form an irreconcilable feud with the Divine Dragon and all Dragons.
That was the reason why he said that Night Spirit was in trouble.
However, Su Zimo had not expected that the Divine Dragon would be able to find its way here even after they used the Minor Transference Talisman to escape from the primordial ruin!
If not for that mysterious expert today, he and Night Spirit would most likely have died by now.
How did it find its way here?
The Minor Transference Talisman was used for spatial teleportation. Perhaps the Divine Dragon could determine the general direction given its capabilities. However, how did it determine that he and Night Spirit were in the capital of Great Zhou so accurately?
This time round, the Divine Dragon was indeed repelled by a mysterious expert.
However, there was no way that mysterious expert could appear around Su Zimo at any time. Only the heavens knew where that person came from, what he looked like and what his background was.
If the Divine Dragon were to come knocking the next time, who would be able to save him and Night Spirit?
Su Zimo's heart was shrouded in a layer of haze.
…
At the center of the capital stood a majestic and majestic palace that occupied a huge area – it was the emperor's palace.
Outside the palace stood a dense crowd of black-armored soldiers. Every single one of them was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator and there were a total of 10,000 of them. All of them knelt on one knee in an orderly formation in a disciplined manner.
At the entrance of the palace stood a middle-aged man in yellow robes. His face was chiseled and his gaze was blazing. He exuded a dignified aura that came from someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
The yellow-robed man's bronze skin added a hint of bloodlust and killing intent to his face!
This was the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He was in charge of thousands of kilometers of territory and ruled over the feudal vassals with a might that shook the world!
The yellow-robed man asked, "Everyone, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty, that person is extremely strong and should be one of the top existences in Tianhuang Mainland. He's definitely not someone of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Behind the yellow-robed man, a Perfected Jin Dan said slowly.
"Perfected Lord Ming Ze, did you manage to catch a glimpse of that expert's appearance?" The yellow-robed man glanced sideways and asked with a nod.
The fact that he was addressed as a Perfected Lord meant that this person was already at Nascent Soul realm!
"I didn't manage to catch a clear glimpse either,"
Perfected Lord Ming Ze shook his head. "Since that person isn't willing to reveal his identity, let's not investigate further lest we incur his wrath and get ourselves killed."
"Hmm?"
The yellow-robed man nodded and looked into the distance, murmuring softly, "With the appearance of the Dragons, is the world truly about to descend into chaos?"
