Under the tracking of Yang Xuan's spiritual sense, Wood Dragon's cultivation base rapidly faded like a deflated balloon in just a few seconds. In the end, he was only left with the cultivation base of a late-stage Ruler.
At the same time, Wood Dragon's appearance also underwent a huge change.
His originally imposing figure began to become stooped and withered, and his height began to shrink. Not long after, he became a dwarf.
Yang Xuan's eyes revealed a look of realization.
It turned out that it was not that Wood Dragon could not transform, but that he had already completed his transformation before he met Yang Xuan. His cultivation base had reached the Emperor Realm from the Ruler Realm.
No wonder Yang Xuan always felt that Wood Dragon's cultivation base was a little strange. So that was why.
"I was almost fooled by you." Yang Xuan laughed as he held the dwarf's neck.
However, the dwarf was not in the mood to laugh. There was only fear left on his face.
When he left the starry sky with the dwarf and returned to the hall again, the few of them were still there. When they saw Yang Xuan return with the dwarf, their faces were filled with shock.
Fatso Yun was fine. He had long guessed that Yang Xuan might be an Emperor. However, although the other two had heard Fatso mention it, they did not believe it.
Now that Yang Xuan had returned with Wood Dragon's neck, the two of them understood everything. They did not dare to say a word and even retreated slightly, ready to run at any time.
Yang Xuan threw Wood Dragon on the ground and looked around.
Although he did not kill Wood Dragon, he had destroyed his bodily functions. As expected, Wood Dragon would become a cripple from now on.
"Let's go!" He did not look at the others anymore. Instead, he said to Di Lingxiao.
Di Lingxiao's heart finally relaxed. He stood behind Yang Xuan.
After taking a few steps, Yang Xuan stopped and said slowly, "Tell Prince Shiraishi that if he wants revenge, he can come to 22 Yunhua to find me. I will accompany him at any time."
After saying that, he and Di Lingxiao's bodies slowly disappeared.
No one dared to say anything. They looked at each other in dismay. Only Wood Dragon continued to groan on the ground.
…
In the starry sky, Di Lingxiao, who was gradually approaching 22 Yunhua, was excited.
Although he wasn't a wanderer returning home, the dangers he experienced gave him a feeling of having survived a disaster.
"Brother Di, I have something to ask." Outside 22 Yunhua, Yang Xuan stood still and asked.
"Brother Yang, please go ahead," Di Lingxiao said respectfully.
"Well, what I want to know is, how can you change into another species?"
Di Lingxiao seemed to have known that Yang Xuan was going to ask this question. After organizing his words, he said, "This method is called God's Sacrifice. Through a specific chant, voice, and hand gesture, one's soul can communicate with the legendary God Cloud. The power will descend and temporarily increase one's cultivation."
Yang Xuan frowned and said, "Why would the power of the God Cloud cause changes in one's body?"
Di Lingxiao shook his head, "I'm not sure about this, but it seems like the changes are random. After the power of the God Cloud descends, the body of the person undergoing the God's Sacrifice will change according to the increase in power. It's more fixed. For example, after the first successful God's Sacrifice, I became an ape. After that, I can only be an ape and can't change."
Yang Xuan thought for a while and asked, "What is the God Cloud?"
This question probably stumped Di Lingxiao. He scratched his head and said, "I don't know, but during the God's Sacrifice, I will feel a gloomy power."
Yang Xuan nodded and changed the topic, "What kind of experiment did they capture you for?"
Di Lingxiao smiled bitterly, "In the end, this matter has something to do with Brother Yang."
"Oh? Why do you say that? "Yang Xuan was a little surprised.
Di Lingxiao said, "In fact, in the legend of the Heiyun people, they have two gods. One is the God Cloud, and the other is the God of Darkness. But the problem is that in the long history of the Heiyun people, the way to communicate with the God of Darkness gradually disappeared, leaving only the way to communicate with the God Cloud."
After a pause, he continued, "So, they have been studying the way to communicate with the God of Darkness. And that time, I inexplicably defeated Scorpion. I couldn't explain the origin of the power, so they mistakenly thought that I accidentally communicated with the God of Darkness and wanted to use me for an experiment. I don't know what kind of experiment it is, but I know that the participants must be willing and can't resist. That's why they wanted to capture Yimian and Xiao Ling to threaten me."
At this point, Yang Xuan finally understood. He didn't expect that it was really him who caused the trouble.
But this matter couldn't be settled. If he hadn't taken action that day, Di Lingxiao would probably have been killed by Scorpion, and then there wouldn't have been anything else.
The God of Darkness and the God Cloud?
Yang Xuan gently chewed on these two strange words. He roughly guessed that the name of the Heiyun people came from this.
But he didn't know what the God of Darkness had to do with the Evil God.
Yang Xuan even had a vague feeling that this God of Darkness should be the Evil God in the legends of the human race.
Then, Di Lingxiao repeated the chants and hand gestures to perform the sacrificial ritual to Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan didn't immediately try it. Instead, he asked, "Brother Di, what are your plans?"
Di Lingxiao smiled bitterly, "Thanks to you, it's already not easy for me to escape their control. In the future, I'll just find a place to live in seclusion."
"If that's the case, I have a place that's suitable for Brother Di to live." Yang Xuan nodded.
"Oh? Where is it? "
"The Celestial Gate!" Yang Xuan said lightly.
…
After going to Hua Hong to pick up Yimian and Xiao Ling, the two of them naturally hugged and cried when they saw Di Lingxiao. This feeling of regaining something that had been lost was the most moving. It caused Di Lingxiao's eyes to become moist. He no longer had the demeanor of standing at the peak of Lingxiao back then.
There were also forces of the Heavenly Zither Clan here, and the leader was a Ruler.
Yang Xuan secretly contacted him and revealed a trace of the Scepter of Life's aura.
Naturally, this person knew what the Scepter of Life meant to the Heavenly Zither Clan. Shocked and overjoyed, he knelt on the ground and was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He also vowed that he would complete the task that Yang Xuan had given him.
After that, Yang Xuan secretly told Di Lingxiao some things to pay attention to when he went to the Celestial Gate. Then, he watched them board the Heavenly Zither Clan's flying ship and leave.
Before leaving, Di Lingxiao looked at Yang Xuan from afar and bowed respectfully.
Yang Xuan just waved his hand and gestured for him to leave.
From now on, whether it was the broken arm or the all-powerful master of Lingxiao, they would all disappear into the starry sky. What was left was only a man who would take care of his wife and children.
Di Lingxiao's story was over, but Yang Xuan's story was not.
This was because not long after Di Lingxiao left, he felt a huge aura coming from the distant starry sky.
This was a true monarch. He was not an opportunist like Mu Long.
Yang Xuan smiled. He already knew the identity of the person who had come.
It was Prince Shiraishi.
