Looking at that dragon gate which had finally opened yet was still unable to enter, Yan Zhaoge did not know whether to laugh or to cry.
"If Lin Qiancheng knew that the final situation would be like this, he probably wouldn't have come to open this Dragon Graveyard in high spirits, right?"
After spending so much effort to execute the Nine Dragons Devouring Heaven Art, he finally managed to open the Dragon's Gate. However, he was unable to seize the initiative. In the end, he could only wait for the world within the Dragon's Gate to stabilize before he could enter.
When the time came, the others would have already received the news and would be ready for battle. Everyone would be on the same starting line.
Why bother?
If Lin Qiancheng had known this earlier, he probably would not have so complacently treated that Nine Dragons Devouring Heavens technique of his as a treasure.
Let's not talk about the Brilliant Thunder Sect for now. Even if everything went according to plan, it would still be a trap for him in the end.
Yan Zhaoge had a strange expression on his face as he looked at the basin down below, "En, it really is a huge pit."
The martial practitioners of the other sects also congregated in the vicinity of the basin. The martial practitioners who had accompanied Yan Zhaoge to the Bewildering Maze Sea earlier gradually arrived as well.
After hearing Yan Zhaoge's general introduction of the situation, everyone was rendered speechless for a time, unable to speak for a long time.
Lin Qiancheng had long since set up a trap, lying in ambush in the Bewildering Maze Sea, specifically waiting for someone to take the bait. In the end, it was Yan Zhaoge who was more skilled than him, causing Lin Qiancheng to be caught in his own trap.
Lin Qiancheng, one of the three Martial Saint experts of the Vast Ocean World, had finally silently perished within the deep abyss of the Bewildering Maze Sea, becoming the key to opening the dragon gate.
The secret of the group of dragons entering the sea and the burial grounds made everyone's hearts race. As they looked at the Dragon's Gate at the bottom of the basin, many thoughts appeared in their minds.
There was no one who did not believe Yan Zhaoge's words, because the scene before them had already proven how powerful that legendary existence was.
One of the Six Evil Sects, the Brilliant Thunder Sect, was annihilated in an instant.
Such extravagance was something that no one in the current Vast Ocean World could achieve.
Looking at the surrounding people, Yan Zhaoge smiled, "This place cannot be stabilised in just a day or two. This Yan will first return to Changli Mountain."
Xu Fei and Shi Jun naturally trusted Yan Zhaoge's judgement. Exchanging glances, those of Changli Mountain left behind someone to stand guard while the others returned to the Mountain as well.
Seeing this, the people from the other sects hesitated.
They could sense the dangerous aura coming from the Dragon's Gate below, but they were still a little unwilling.
Some people refused to believe it and tried to enter the Dragon Gate. However, they were instantly killed by the terrifying and domineering Dragon Qi within the Dragon Gate, and not even their bones were left.
Everyone was terrified, and only then did they temporarily give up on the idea. However, every family left someone to guard the basin, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Accompanied by Yan Zhaoge's return to the Mountain, this tribulation caused by the Blood Dragon Sect finally came to an end.
After the matter of the Brilliant Thunder Sect, the Dragon Slayer Sect and Soul Shocking Island had completely stopped their battles against Water Crystal Palace and Myriad Sword Pool. Water Crystal Palace and Myriad Sword Pool did not get involved too much either.
Both sides were paying close attention to the changes in the Bewildering Maze Sea and the Brilliant Thunder Sect. After understanding what was going on, both sides tacitly stopped fighting.
After this, the Vast Ocean World which had been wreathed in the flames of war a moment ago rapidly regained its calm.
But the oppressive atmosphere was still there, as if everyone was waiting for something.
However, in this battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties.
On the side of Good, the Blood Dragon Sect had been virtually exterminated, the two Transcending Mortality Martial Grandmasters of Spirit Rhino Island having both perished, and Water Crystal Palace having suffered great losses when it had initially been surrounded and attacked.
On the side of Evil, the Evil Saint Lin Qiancheng had perished, the Chief of the Evil Shifting Sect Feng Jingsheng had perished, and the Brilliant Thunder Sect had been completely levelled to the ground.
Whether it was Good or Evil, both sides had suffered great losses to their vitality.
Meanwhile, Yan Zhaoge's fame had risen yet another level in this great battle, virtually reaching the point where he was like the midday sun.
To the martial practitioners of the Vast Ocean World, whether or not Yan Zhaoge's strength surpassed that of the Chief of the Dragon Slayer Sect Zhao Zhong and the Palace Lord of Water Crystal Palace Lin Shi, it was indisputable that his fame and prestige were currently even greater than that of these two heavyweights of Good and Evil.
Especially what caused both Good and Evil to look over was the fact that the Sacred Artifact of the Blood Dragon Sect, the Nine Dragon Fingers, was currently in Yan Zhaoge's hands as well.
If Yan Zhaoge refined the Nine Dragon Fingers, with the Northern Ocean Clone and the Nine Dragon Fingers by his side, Yan Zhaoge would be the indisputable number one expert of the Vast Ocean World.
Even other Martial Saint experts or Sacred Artifacts would have to join forces in order to be able to stand against him.
At this time, the people of the Vast Ocean World had already gradually stopped referring to this youth who was in his twenties directly by his name.
At first, it had been something like 'Fu Kunpeng'. Because this title was somewhat unkind to Yan Zhaoge, mainly relying on the mortal shell of the Northern Ocean Martial Saint Zhuang Kun to show off his might, more and more people now referred to him as the Traceless Cloud Dragon King or Traceless Cloud Yan when they mentioned Yan Zhaoge.
The meaning of a mysterious dragon's head but not its tail, traceless amidst the clouds. Towards this young expert of unknown origins who had suddenly appeared in the Vast Ocean World, shocking the heavens as soon as he had appeared, everyone felt both fear and reverence towards him.
This was the case for the peak powers of Good and Evil. As for the smaller powers beneath them as well as solitary practitioners, when mentioning Yan Zhaoge, they were completely filled with praise and reverence.
This youth had accomplished what many people would find hard to achieve in their lifetimes. The speed at which he had risen could be said to be unprecedented as he was already a living legend of the Vast Ocean World.
Now, only a portion of those who had enmity with Yan Zhaoge would say a few words behind his back. Still, they only dared to do so in private.
To Changli Mountain, where Yan Zhaoge was temporarily residing, he was currently undoubtedly the most esteemed guest.
"It will probably still take some time before we can enter the dragon gate. Let's all wait and worry together. At that time, it will definitely be another gathering of experts. I believe that the other sects will also be accumulating their strength in preparation," Yan Zhaoge said as he looked at the people of Changli Mountain before him.
The Chief of Changli Mountain, Gao Tianzhong, nodded slowly, "That's right. I hope that you will not be stingy with your assistance then."
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "Chief Gao is polite."
After leaving Changli Mountain, Yan Zhaoge, Xu Fei and Shi Jun returned to the Ocean Scorching Spring together.
As they walked, Xu Fei asked, "Will it affect you and senior apprentice-aunt Fu's return to the Eight Extremities World?"
Yan Zhaoge smacked his lips, "It is still hard to say now. Still, with the opening of the dragon gate, the spiritual qi veins of the Vast Ocean World as well as the boundaries of space and time have been affected greatly."
He took out the Lofty Prestige Mirror. After this period of nourishment and recovery, light was already flickering on its surface once more, just that it was temporarily retracted and not emitted.
Accompanied by Yan Zhaoge's will, a faint mirror-light shot out from within the Lofty Prestige Mirror, illuminating into the distance.
After identifying the direction, Xu Fei and Shi Jun were both taken aback, "That's …"
Yan Zhaoge shrugged, "Right, that's right. It's in the direction of the Jiamao Mountain Range where the Brilliant Thunder Sect was originally located. It might be somewhere in the vicinity, but it might also be within the dragon gate."
"Therefore, our return to the Eight Extremities World and entering the dragon gate might be one and the same thing."
"The Lofty Prestige Mirror has still yet to recover completely. When it has, we will be able to ascertain its exact location. If the dimensional crevice opens within the dragon gate, this passageway will also be our path home."
Yan Zhaoge stroked his lower chin, "Actually, I have long since had a premonition."
Both the Eight Extremities World and the Vast Ocean World had the legend of the burial ground of numerous dragons. The dimensional passageway between the two worlds might most likely appear there.
When Yan Zhaoge and Fu Enshu had come over earlier, the dragon tomb had still yet to open. Now that the dragon gate had opened, the spacetime of the Vast Ocean World had been disturbed. If they wanted to form a passageway to the Eight Extremities World, it might have to be opened within the dragon tomb.
Yan Zhaoge muttered to himself, "I wonder how things are over at the Eight Extremities World now …"
