Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er returned to Dragon Island. In ancient times, the Yinyang Saint Rock had fallen on Dragon Island from outer space before being moved to the depths of the endless universe by Mo Tianyun. It was extremely far away, such that even with Jianchen's current strength, he was unable to sense the rock. If he directly flew over from the Tian Yuan Continent, he probably would not be able to cover the distance even after several decades or over a century.
As a result, the only path to where the Yinyang Saint Rock was was the formation that Mo Tianyun had cast down on Dragon Island. The formation possessed the power of teleportation, so it was the only shortcut to where the Yinyang Saint Rock was.
Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er sighed in amazement when they returned to Dragon Island and looked at the scenery that had remained the same for several decades. When they had first arrived on Dragon Island, they had to be careful to avoid the mindless walking corpses that roamed the island, or they would die if they were careless. Now that they had returned, the wandering corpses no longer posed any threat to them. Even the powerful dragon souls that roamed the depths of Dragon Island were as weak as insects in their eyes.
"There are many heavenly resources growing on Dragon Island, and they're all shockingly old. It's just a pity that these heavenly resources aren't of very high quality, so they're useless to us. Let's directly go to the Lunisolar Cave and get to the Yinyang Saint Rock as soon as possible," Jianchen said to Shangguan Mu 'er.
Shangguan Mu 'er had already removed her veil, revealing her indescribably beautiful face. She followed beside Jianchen emotionlessly as she continued to hold the simple Zither of the Demonic Cry. She nodded silently when she heard Jianchen's words. A sliver of mixed feelings appeared in her eyes.
"Hmm?" Just when Jianchen was about to set off for the Lunisolar Cave, his face suddenly changed. He gently let out an interjection of surprise and immediately changed directions. Originally, he had been heading for the Lunisolar Cave, but now, he was directly charging towards the depths of Dragon Island.
A sliver of interest appeared in Shangguan Mu 'er's eyes as well. She followed behind Jianchen, flying towards the depths of Dragon Island.
There was a ten-meter-tall formation on Dragon Island. Even Saint Emperors would feel pressured by such a powerful formation. At the same time, there was a terrifying killing formation hidden within as well. As soon as anyone who did not belong to the Dragon Clan came into contact with the ten-meter-tall formation, the space there would immediately crack open and devour them like the mouth of a demon. However, a formation like this was nothing to Origin realm experts.
Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er directly ignored the ten-meter-tall formation. They flew towards the centre of Dragon Island with lightning speed. As they moved, the space there shook violently, forming spatial cracks one after another.
Dragon Island was very large, but with Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er's speed, they crossed half of the island in just a short while. They arrived at the centre of the island. A golden door that was three times the size of a sheet appeared in the air there. Illusionary dragon souls would fly out from it from time to time, wandering about the depths of the island.
Jianchen was familiar with this place. This was the most sacred place of the Dragon clan, a tomb established in a miniature world.
Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er both concealed their presences as they stood outside the entrance of the tomb. They did not enter. The tomb was the most sacred place of the Dragon clan. All the dead dragons of the Dragon clan were buried there. If outsiders set foot in there, it would be blasphemy to the Dragon clan.
Illusionary dragons roamed around the tomb, but even when Jianchen and Shangguan Mu 'er stood outside the entrance, the wandering dragon souls failed to sense their existence at all. Even when some of the dragon souls passed by them, they did not sense them at all. It was as if Jianchen and Shangguan Mu' er did not exist in their eyes.
"Ruijin, Black Fish, and Honglian are actually cultivating here," Jian Chen murmured. Ever since they parted ways in the Ice Goddess Hall, he had not seen Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er again. Even when he had enveloped the territories of the four races with the senses of his soul, he had failed to sense their presences. Today, he had unexpectedly discovered their traces on Dragon Island.
"After so many years, many people on the Tian Yuan Continent have become Holy Emperor. Even the Holy Emperors who were weaker than the three of them have broken through to Holy Emperor, yet the three of them are still stuck at the Great Perfection of Holy Emperor," Shangguan Mu 'er said softly. She glanced at Jianchen beside her with some blame in her eyes. She was glancing at Jianchen.
There were many people on the Tian Yuan Continent who did not know Jianchen, yet Jianchen had generously given them Violet Cloud Peaches and Comprehension Tea Leaves to become Holy Emperor. Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er had assisted Jianchen countless times in the past. They had even been Jianchen's greatest backer against the ten protector clans in the past. Yet now, the three of them were still stuck at the Great Perfection of Holy Emperor. They had not become Emperors, so Shangguan Mu 'er found it rather difficult to continue watching.
"Sigh, I should have thought that seniors Ruijin and the other two should be cultivating here. I should have come here long ago, but I've been delayed by the matters of the World of Forsaken Saints, so I've never been able to free myself." Jianchen felt extremely regretful when he sensed that the three of them were still stuck at the Great Perfection of Forsaken Saints. The kindness that Ruijin, Honglian, and Black Fish had shown him was as heavy as a mountain. He would never be able to repay them. On the Tian Yuan Continent, many Holy Emperors who were not as powerful as Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er had broken through many years ago, yet Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er were still working hard to become Holy Emperor. Jianchen's heart ached when he saw this.
"Not breaking through ahead of time might be a good thing for the three seniors. At the very least, they didn't take part in the battle against the World of Forsaken Saints. Although they possess armor with origin energy, they still can't defeat Origin realm experts," said Shangguan Mu 'er. The fact that Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er had remained in seclusion for many years. If they had broken through ahead of time and taken part in the battle against the World of Forsaken Saints, they would not have been the opponents of Receival or Returnance experts even with their origin energy armor.
"Hmm? That's not right. Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er are still stuck at the Great Perfection of Holy Emperor, but their presences are no weaker than Holy Emperor's. They're even more powerful than regular Holy Emperors." Jianchen's eyes narrowed as he stared at the depths of the tomb. Although he was unable to see Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er due to the countless tombstones, he could clearly sense their presences.
"They're practising an even higher level cultivation method. This cultivation method has completely surpassed the Saint Tier!" Jianchen was greatly shocked. Saint Tier cultivation methods and battle skills were already at the highest level in this world. If they surpassed this level, they would no longer belong to this world. They would definitely have been passed down from a higher world.
"Could it be that the Winged Tiger God from ancient times has reappeared? Aside from the Winged Tiger, who would help Ruijin and Shangguan Mu 'er like this? And the armor and weapons of seniors Ruijin, Honglian, and Black Fish all came from the Winged Tiger from the ancient times … "
"When Ruijin and Shangguan Mu were trapped in the Ice Goddess Hall, protector Shui said that the three of them had already been saved. Is the mysterious expert who saved Ruijin and Shangguan Mu 'er the Winged Tiger? When he saved them, did he pass down an even more profound cultivation method to them? "
Jianchen frowned in thought. However, no matter what conclusion he reached, it was only a guess. He had no concrete evidence to prove it.
Ruijin, Shangguan Mu 'er, and Shangguan Mu' er had already reached a crucial moment in their cultivation. They would become Holy Emperor soon. Due to their cultivation methods, they would be more powerful than regular Holy Emperors as soon as they reached the level of Holy Emperor. As a result, Jianchen did not disturb Ruijin and Shangguan Mu 'er. Instead, he stood outside the tomb and took out three Space Rings.
Each Space Ring contained three fifth grade Violet Cloud Peaches and Comprehension Tea Leaves. He also left behind enough Springs of Life. Afterwards, he wrote down the method to consume them on a stone tablet. After doing all that, he controlled the three Space Rings to slowly drift into the tomb, silently landing where the three of them cultivated.
