Chapter 497 - 360: Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning
Chapter 497: Chapter 360: Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning"My lord, this is... my first time seeing the blood pool... and also the first time entering it," stammered the Ancestral Dragon, "I truly do not... know why the blood pool has dried up..."
As he spoke, his body couldn’t stop trembling.
However, a smile appeared on the face of the lord, and his eyes once again transformed.
This time, what the Ancestral Dragon saw in his eyes wasn’t any profound epoch, but boundless distortion, boundless darkness.
The tide of darkness rushed towards him, directly invading his limbs and bones, filling his entire body.
And at that moment, the last bit of clarity in the Ancestral Dragon’s mind was also wiped clean, as he completely lost consciousness.
Meanwhile, on the stone platform, the lord’s gaze shifted, and with a wave of his hand, a streak of spiritual light shot into the Ancestral Dragon’s body at an extremely fast speed, heading straight for the Ancestral Dragon’s sea of consciousness.
A moment later, the lord’s expression returned to calm.
And the Ancestral Dragon also slowly came to, at the same time, he seemed to realize that the lord was
By his side, Pan Gu appeared to have returned to the Vast Wilderness at some point.
"Through the Ancestral Dragon, I have gleaned some information about that lord of the Secret Forces. He is not an existence of the Great Path!" Sun Wukong said with a laugh.
"Not of the Great Path?" Pan Gu laughed as well.
If he’s not of the Great Path, who in this era could possibly be Wukong’s adversary?
"Although he’s not from the Great Path, his strength has already far surpassed that of a Supreme; he might not be far from the Great Path..." Sun Wukong shook his head.
Before sending the Ancestral Dragon to the Secret Forces, he had left a method within the Ancestral Dragon.
The plan was to use the Ancestral Dragon to conveniently meet this so-called lord and to find out the details about the lord while also plotting his next move.
Indeed, with his Divine Skills, he could have completely made the Ancestral Dragon utter not a word.
But just as some wise netizen suggested long ago, a mixture of truth and falsehood makes the information more credible!
Just now, it was a close call, but fortune favored the brave.
Despite the vast intelligence of netizens providing strategies and the various rewards from the Persuasion system, his strength was still far from sufficient.
The lord was ultimately a threat, and it would undoubtedly be unwise to take action against him directly.
It was necessary to wait for the right moment and prepare the next move.
...
In the Core Palace of the Secret Forces.
"Do you sincerely wish to pledge allegiance to me?" the lord asked.
Upon hearing this, the Ancestral Dragon immediately nodded: "My lord, my loyalty to you is witnessed by the entire epoch. In this world, there is no one more loyal than I."
"This time, I will assist you in achieving the realm of a Supreme!" declared the lord.
The Ancestral Dragon was shocked; could such good fortune really happen?
He wasn’t a fool, having cultivated for so many years and experienced so much, he knew well that there is a cost for everything.
First leaping to the pinnacle of a Saint Emperor and now being assisted to become a Supreme?
The pie was too big, and the price to pay would surely be even greater.
But now, he had no right to refuse!
"Thank... thank you, my lord!" the Ancestral Dragon bowed respectfully.
Thereafter, the lord waved his hand, and the Ancestral Dragon opened his eyes to find himself outside the palace.
Wang Bing was still waiting outside.
"The lord has given his orders, you’re to come with me," said Wang Bing with a complex expression.
Obviously, she also knew about the Ancestral Dragon being preordained to become a Supreme, whereas the original preordained was the first in the king-level sequence, Twilight.
Although the lord had not explicitly stated it before, his attitude had been clear.
Yet at the end of this epoch, just as Twilight was about to achieve the rank of Supreme, a wild Ancestral Dragon appeared?
What merit and ability does this Ancestral Dragon have to receive such favor from the lord?
And looking at the situation, even if the Ancestral Dragon were to achieve the rank of Supreme, that would not be the end.
At that moment, even Wang Bing made up her mind to foster a good relationship with the Ancestral Dragon.
After the Ancestral Dragon left, the lord on the stone platform slightly raised the corners of his mouth again.
"Vast Wilderness, Chaos Martial Ancestor, you seem clever, having calculated everything, but in the end, you have been outmaneuvered by my own scheme.
Dao Repository Pavilion, Azure Cloud Sword, are they the last resorts of that old being? But they can’t stop me!"
