"In that case, why did Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun not use the Wings of Time when he fought the Holy Lord back then?"
Xiao Chen asked the question in his heart. Then, he looked at the dragon spirit, hoping to get an answer from it.
The dragon spirit remained silent, seeming to be hiding something else.
Xiao Chen found it strange, but he did not pursue the matter. He only waited quietly for the other party.
After a long time, the dragon spirit said, "I'll tell you after you become the Dragon Emperor. How about that?"
Xiao Chen said softly, "It's better to tell you now. I'm afraid of changes in the future. This matter is very important. How long is Senior going to hide it from me?"
The dragon spirit sighed. After a while, it said, "Alright. It is indeed time to tell you."
"Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun did indeed secretly take away the Wings of Time back then. He did not use the Wings of Time when he fought the Holy Lord. That's because the Wings of Time were prepared to deal with even stronger enemies. "
"The Black Dragon King!"
An enemy stronger than the Holy Lord. Naturally, Xiao Chen thought of the Black Dragon King.
"That's right. Back then, the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor used the Martial Epoch's Luck to barely seal the Black Dragon King. Back then, the Martial Epoch declined and could no longer continue sealing the Black Dragon King. Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun had a greater goal: to kill the Black Dragon King and deal with this problem in one go. "
This revelation startled Xiao Chen. This Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun was very ambitious. This was something that even the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor could not do.
To think that he wanted to take the risk and kill the Black Dragon King!
After some thought, Xiao Chen said, "How did he prepare? If I guess right, it should have something to do with that blood moon above the Desolate Sea."
The dragon spirit looked at Xiao Chen, and its eyes lit up. It said softly, "It looks like you suspected it long ago. It does have something to do with that blood moon. The Desolate Sea was the origin of the entire Martial Epoch. Back then, after Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun obtained the Wings of Time, the Desolate Sea was the origin of the entire Martial Epoch. Back then, after Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun obtained the Wings of Time, he materialized the blood moon as the formation core and laid two formations. "
"Two formations?"
Xiao Chen knew that there was a Heavenly Dao Killing Formation in the vast Desolate Sea with the blood moon as the formation core.
Then where is the other array formation?
"I believe you know about the Heavenly Dao Killing Formation laid in the Desolate Sea. The other formation is in the sky."
"In the sky?"
"Yes. In the vast Starry Heavens, Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun mobilized all the Dragon Race disciples in the various astral regions of the Great Thousand Realms to set up formation nodes. With the boundless universe as the background, the millions of stars as the nodes, and the Wings of Time as the formation core, Xiao Chen formed the unprecedented Great Desolate Blood Dragon Formation. Once the formation is activated, the millions of stars will be driven by the blood moon and condense into an ancient blood dragon from the prehistoric era. "
The dragon spirit showed a disappointed expression as it spoke of Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun's shocking actions back then.
Xiao Chen was greatly shocked, and his expression changed slightly.
The Great Desolate Blood Dragon Formation used the Starry Heavens as its background and the millions of stars as its nodes. If this formation was activated, the size of the Great Desolate Eon Blood Dragon that was formed would be simply inconceivable.
"Do you think I'm strong? However, in reality, the Great Desolate Blood Dragon Formation alone could not kill the Black Dragon King. He is the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao. He is destruction itself, the monster that the Heavenly Dao used to destroy the Martial Epoch. Hence, the Heavenly Dao Killing Formation is needed. The two formations overlap, using the Great Desolate Eon Blood Dragon's boundless Dragon Might to suppress him and then using the Heavenly Dao's killing intent to destroy him. "
The dragon spirit did not pause, continuing to speak.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. Then, with a flip of his hand, Heavenly Slayer appeared in his grasp.
"My Heavenly Slayer Saber."
The Desolate Sea was the origin of the Martial Epoch. The Heavenly Dao Killing Formation that Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun laid was to gather the killing intent born of the Heavenly Dao since the birth of the epoch.
Coincidentally, Xiao Chen's Heavenly Slayer Saber could activate the Heavenly Dao's killing intent. The Heavenly Slayer Saber did not kill but hurt itself.
Once it was unsheathed, it would taste blood.
Heavenly Slayer and the Heavenly Dao Killing Formation happened to draw on the Heavenly Dao's killing intent.
The dragon spirit said softly, "You are not stupid. The Heavenly Slayer Saber in your hand is used to activate the Heavenly Dao Killing Formation."
"The Great Desolate Blood Dragon Formation is activated by the Xuewu Dynasty's Blood Dragon Cloak?"
Xiao Chen quickly recalled the Blood Dragon Cloak that Xi wore. The first time he saw it, he found it incredibly familiar.
"Indeed, you already know."
The dragon spirit did not show much surprise on its face. After some thought, it said, "Back then, Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun dual cultivated the Righteous and Demonic Dao. He left a total of two inheritances. Naturally, one is here, and the other is the Demonic Dao Hall. The two inheritances each control a formation and compete with each other in the future. The victor can obtain both Heavenly Slayer and the Blood Dragon Cloak, truly merging the two formations and becoming Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun's true inheritor. "
Xiao Chen could not help revealing a self-mocking smile. "Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun really hid himself deeply. What starting the Divine Dragon Epoch and inheriting his will? From the very start, Xi and I were his pawns. Only one person can obtain his inheritance. Both of us have been deceived. "
Xiao Chen was certain that Xi had not known about this, either.
When Xi saw Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun visit the Ethereal Immortal Palace, he could not disguise his shocked expression.
However, Xi should know more than Xiao Chen.
"You could have continued hiding it. Why are you telling me now?" Xiao Chen asked as he looked at the dragon spirit.
The dragon spirit sighed and said, "According to Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun's will, when you become the Dragon Emperor, he will become the Demonic Monarch. Then, the protectors of the two inheritances will tell you the truth, letting you kill each other. The one who survives will be able to merge the two formations.
"However, even you are suspicious now. I believe that person should be suspicious as well. I cannot be certain that the protectors of the Demonic Dao Hall's inheritances will not tell him the truth in advance. If he knows the truth and you do not, you will be at a great disadvantage. In the depths of my heart, I definitely hope that you, with a pure-blooded bloodline, can start the Divine Dragon Epoch and not a Demonic Dao cultivator without a Dragon Race bloodline. "
The dragon spirit showed a guilty expression, but it still told Xiao Chen the reason.
"Don't blame Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun … Back then, he spent too much effort laying the two formations.
"Just as he was about to enter closed-door cultivation to recuperate, the Golden Dragons betrayed him and told the Holy Lord about his declining strength. The Holy Lord suddenly made a move. Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun's defeat was too unjust. He simply could not swallow this defeat, so he laid this seemingly inhumane contingency plan. "
After hearing the dragon spirit's explanation for Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun, Xiao Chen felt suspicious. He asked, "Why did I hear that Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun took the initiative to challenge the Holy Lord before being defeated?"
The dragon spirit smiled and said, "Back then, he secretly laid the two formations and was incredibly weak. How could he be stupid enough to attack the Holy Lord? The winner takes all. Since the Holy Lord won, he naturally would not say that Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun launched a sneak attack, something so disgraceful. "
Xiao Chen thought about it and agreed. This explained why Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun did not attack the Holy Lord even though he had the Wings of Time.
"However, the Holy Lord is not in a good state, either. Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun severely injured his main body and basically cannot leave the Faux God World. In the past fifty thousand years, he wanted to explore the secrets of the Blue Dragon's old lands. However, he could only materialize Divine Weapons to attack. However, Soul Reaper stopped him. "
So, that was the case. The golden Divine Weapons that appeared in this world in the past were actually the work of the Holy Lord.
As the dragon spirit said, the Holy Lord was indeed severely injured.
"Now, I no longer have any secrets. I already told you everything I know. You have to start the Divine Dragon Epoch. You have to snatch that person's Blood Dragon cloak. You can activate the two formations that Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun laid back then only if you obtain both at the same time. "
The dragon spirit showed a serious expression as it looked at Xiao Chen with a grave expression.
The truth was often cruel. The perfect image of Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun in Xiao Chen's heart had already crumbled.
It seemed to be unexpected, but it was also reasonable.
If possible, Xiao Chen would not want to face this truth. It was too depressing.
Ignoring the grave dragon spirit, Xiao Chen left this place. Then, he saw Soul Reaper standing on the city wall in a daze.
When Xiao Chen first saw Soul Reaper, he only felt fear and horror.
However, when he saw Soul Reaper now, Xiao Chen felt only sorrow and respect.
Compared to Dragon Emperor Xiao Yun, the Desolate Slave Soul Reaper held a much higher place in Xiao Chen's heart.
Without saying a word, Xiao Chen arrived before the Desolate Slave Soul Reaper's mountain-like body.
Xiao Chen extended his hand. Soul Reaper seemed to sense it, so it raised its thick hand clumsily.
When the two hands, one large and one small, touched each other, the Cycle Great Dao circulated.
Then, Xiao Chen slowly absorbed the Death Qi in Soul Reaper's body into his body.
Then, he converted the Death Qi into vigorous lifeforce. Life and death cycled, materializing the power of cycles.
The Death Qi in the Desolate Slave Soul Reaper vanished at a visible rate.
Soul Reaper was already a dead person.
Due to the Death Qi in its body, it could not truly die. It could only guard this secret realm in the form of a Desolate Slave.
"Bang!"
The instant the Death Qi vanished, the Desolate Slave Soul Reaper's huge body suddenly vanished, turning into ashes.
As Xiao Chen watched Soul Reaper turn to ashes, he felt deeply moved. He figured out some things.
Being despicable was the pass of the despicable. No explanation would be enough. Being noble was the epitaph of the noble. There was no need to say anything. He used his life to shape a character that others looked up to.
