“You dare!” The daoist in gray shouted that, feeling himself being ignored and humiliated.
Because in his view, the reason why this little Kunpeng had dared to attack him was because this Kunpeng had a pure blood lineage to rely on while he was only from a hybrid dragon race.
With scornful laughter, the daoist in gray also stretched out his claws to attack Yan Zhaoge!
“Little Kunpeng, don’t you forget that even though I am only a flood dragon now, I will still become a real dragon after I overcome the Immortal Mortal Tribulation!”
Actually, even the real dragons also valued and gave supports to a talented expert like this flood dragon.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t send him to the Fire Dragon World to deal with the dragon’s affairs.
If this flood dragon was in conflict with the real dragon, he would definitely get the worst of it due to his hybrid blood.
However, as long as his enemy was the other race, the dragons would surely back him up no matter what!
With his face gradually turning ferocious, the daoist in gray nearly took off his human shape and revealed his flood dragon head.
However, after a short while, he was startled.
Because he saw light flickering in the Kunpeng’s hands.
Then another pair of hands reached out from those hands.
The daoist in gray was unfamiliar to the smell of the new hands, saying, “This is... the blood smell from human?”
Feeling that something was not right, the flood dragon wanted to retreat right away.
However, under no circumstances would those hands which were reaching out from the light let go of him.
Yan Zhaoge grabbed the claws of the daoist in gray and dragged him into the light!
The North Clone opened the wings on his back while his figure gradually changed into the real Kunpeng.
The abundant devilish qi of the big demon covered Yan Zhaoge’s human blood and breath in certain point.
The daoist in gray only had the chance to scream once. After that, he was dragged into the light in the North Clone’s hands by Yan Zhaoge.
As the North Clone clenched his fists, the light disappeared at once.
Meanwhile, the daoist in gray felt his head spinning and the view in front of his eyes transforming into layers of light curtains. Then he entered into an unsteady independent space where Yan Zhaoge was staring at him smilingly.
“That’s a human in the ninth level of the Martial Saint whose orifices haven’t seen divinity? But why does he feel so scary?” The daoist in gray, as anxious and doubtful as he was, still tried to struggle to free himself from Yan Zhaoge’s hands.
He was astonished by Yan Zhaoge’s strength which had been put forth to drag him into the space.
Right at this moment, the daoist in gray already forgot about his rage and shame, nor did he intend to attack Yan Zhaoge. The only thing on his mind right now was getting away from this space.
Nonetheless, Yan Zhaoge’s hands seemed to have been bound on the daoist’s wrist. No matter how hard the daoist had tried, he only found his hands being unable to move a bit.
“Have the Kunpeng and the human colluded with each other? What’s your plan?” Seeing that there was no way out, the daoist in gray then steeled himself to claw at Yan Zhaoge’s face.
Yan Zhaoge, with his left hand behind his back, had no intention to defend himself.
But his right hand which was grabbing the daoist in gray right now suddenly shook in the air.
As a result, with the whole body of the daoist in gray flying to the air, he only felt his head heavy and his feet light.
Then Yan Zhaoge shook his hand again, which almost made the bones of the daoist in gray fall apart.
In the meantime, the daoist in gray lost his human shape completely and showed his flood dragon figure straightly in the dark smoke billows.
His huge body shrank into a shape like a straw rope in Yan Zhaoge’s hand.
The last time Yan Zhaoge shook his right hand, he directly shake off the true essence of the blood and spiritual qi in the flood dragon’s body. After that, with every bones of his body suffering from the dislocation, the flood dragon turned soft like a dead snake.
Only until then did Yan Zhaoge reach out his left hand slowly to grab the neck of the flood dragon from the other side while saying with a smile, “All right, now we can have a good chat.”
“Why do you come here? What has the owner of this place left here?”
The flood dragon was rolling his eyes right now. When he looked at the space which was full of the flowing light in front of him, he only felt desperate deep down.
Being in a place like this, he would never be found by anyone even if he died.
At least, the other people wouldn’t detect his situation right away. And when the experts in the dragon race did find about what had happened to him, Yan Zhaoge would be long gone.
“I just followed the orders to find if the owner of this place have left anything.” The flood dragon answered helplessly, “But I haven’t found anything yet. I don’t even know if there really is anything left. It’s just I didn’t find any other clues at any other places. So I just ran back here to take a chance.”
“Why did you choose to come back during this period?” Yan Zhaoge asked.
The flood dragon answered, “The owner of this place is secret in his trace. It is said that he has shown up recently, but he still comes and goes like a shadow. So I have been sent here to have a check.”
“The owner of this place has already left here over thousands of years and only returned to this place about one thousand years ago. There must be a reason for that. So the people of my race are always suspicious that he might have left something here.”
Then Yan Zhaoge made a detailed inquiry about the time and estimated the timing.
It was said that Exalted Fire Luminary had shown up in the dao universe not long after he had left the Fire Dragon World.
In other words, Suo Mingzhang had never returned to his hometown until a thousand years ago. Then he had left again soon.
In this case, it seemed that he must have come back specifically for something.
So, what was that thing?
No wonder why everyone was focusing on the Fire Dragon World right now.
At last, Yan Zhaoge broke up the blood and qi in this flood dragon’s body and used the Extreme Yang Seal to suppress his power. After that, Yan Zhaoge just left this flood dragon to Panpan.
And whether this flood dragon would become a meal or a toy was all depended on Panpan.
At this moment, the North Clone landed on the ground of the valley. Then he started to look around to observe the surroundings.
‘It’s really hard for others to find something which was hidden by a powerful expert like Exalted Fire Luminary. But what if some big demons who possess the top cultivation base have come here?’ Yan Zhaoge thought, ‘However, no one still hasn’t found anything yet. Why is that?’
As the North Clone walked in the valley, he saw a huge tomb in front of him.
Then he was reminded of something. Having stepped forward, he saw two names on the tombstone.
“Exalted Fire Luminary’s parents have been buried here?”
There weren’t any special protections apart from some simple ones to prevent the exposure of the sun and the wind. Even those were actually arranged by the Feiyi who had occupied the Fire Dragon World.
Anyhow, no one dared to land their hands on the tomb.
For example, that flood dragon was capable of see through everything on the ground and nothing would be hidden from him.
So there was no need to destroy the tomb. After all, it was not worth starting a blood feud with Exalted Fire Luminary.
Yan Zhaoge also thought that according to what he had heard about Exalted Fire Luminary’s temper, it was unlikely for this man to hide something in his parents’ tomb.
Then Yan Zhaoge turned around and saw a thatched cottage.
/> History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1210: What on Earth Is the Relationship Between the Two of You?
Yan Zhaoge entered into the thatched cottage and began to size up the whole place.
The room was quite simple without too many decorations. However, when Yan Zhaoge looked at this place, he found this cottage reminding him of the saying, ‘The greatest truths are the simplest’.
All the beams and the pillars here were built up in a a nearly flawless way.
Adding or taking away anything would ruin this natural feeling.
It didn’t mean that this place was actually perfect. But at least there might only be a few persons who could make any improvements to this cottage.
“Exalted Fire Luminary has built this place by himself...” Yan Zhaoge nodded while saying this with his eyes running down the room.
There was no doubt that someone else must have already turned this place inside and out for many times.
Lots of people had already come here to look for the clues before that flood dragon.
Since this thatched cottage had been built by the owner, it would surely become the focus objective of everyone.
However, no one seemed to have found anything yet.
Or maybe someone had found something but chosen to hide it.
In short, the people outside hadn’t heard anything about the findings in this place.
“Others must have tried every possible ways to search this place.” Yan Zhaoge murmured that while stroking his chin, “So, what could be the methods which haven’t been tried by most of the people but might still be useful?”
He squinted his eyes into a line while continuing, “Through the Mars Halberd? No way. After Mars Halberd has got into a fight with Brocade Emperor, he should have time to come back before he was besieged by the two emperors in the Nine Underworlds.”
“If Mars Halberd has found anything, the demons in this place would certainly pay attention to that and make investigations.”
“Now that nothing has happened and that flood dragon was sent to investigate, which meant that Mars Halberd didn’t find anything useful either.”
Yan Zhaoge pondered that for a while. Suddenly, the expression in his eyes went frozen, “Maybe, I can try this?”
As he said that, his five major internal organs all started to glitter with colorful lights.And the five elements also began to circulate in his body as a powerful life force.
That was him employing the Life Creation Heavenly Scripture of the Later Heaven Three Scriptures of the Jade Clear direct lineage.
In the meantime, a mass of chaotic qi appeared in his body vaguely.
The Life Creation Heavenly Scripture gradually showed some slight changes under the peerless transformation.
Because the way to employ this scripture was not the same as before.
The Life Creation Heavenly Scripture which Yan Zhaoge had cultivated had been obtained by his Grand Master, Yuan Zhengfeng, in a mansion of an ancestor by chance when the latter had been stranded in the Float Gating World.
For all this time, this scripture had only been employed in one way.
However, now that it had been imitated by the Peerless Heavenly Scripture, the Life Creation Heavenly Scripture had turned into another kind of scripture, which was closer to Xue Chuqing’s lineage.
Namely, the lineage of the Exalted Wood Luminary, Shao Junhuang.
When different people cultivated the same martial arts, especially those profound and abstruse ones, they all tended to have their own understanding.
Although it seemed that they had cultivated the same supreme martial arts in the same way, the details of their cultivation would still have lots of differences.
As the cultivation went deeper and deeper to the end, those differences would disappear little by little, like all roads led to the same goal.
But that was the final state of the cultivation. Before that, the differences were hard to avoid.
The Life Creation Heavenly Scripture which Yan Zhaoge had cultivated was different from the one Xue Chuqing had cultivated, even though they both belonged to the Jade Clear direct lineage.
But that was not a problem for Yan Zhaoge.
He had already seen Su Yun and Xiao’ai cultivated this scripture. Also, he had talked with his mother about the cultivation to exchange their experiences.
Due to the time limit, Yan Zhaoge didn’t cultivate the Life Creation Heavenly Scripture of the Exalted Wood Luminary’s lineage.
Nevertheless, as confident as he was, he could still change the details of his own cultivation base of the Life Creation Heavenly Scripture according to the Peerless Heavenly Scripture which contained all the source of the cultivation of the Jade Clear lineage to imitate the cultivation method of the Exalted Wood Luminary’s lineage.
After all the preparation had been finished, Yan Zhaoge raised his hand to let the colorful lights glowing in the center of his hand.
The five elements were still circulating. All the rays of lights were spreading around, which filled in the whole room.
However, the cottage still showed nothing special with the light shining on it.
Yan Zhaoge didn’t get discouraged or deny his formal train of thought.
After pondering for a while, he kept circulating his profound arts while writing several seals in the air with his fingers.
Those seals overlaid each other and finally transformed into a small but profound and delicate ritual.
As the lines on the ritual kept rotating, there were rays of dim lights beaming through the gap and then covering the whole cottage.
This was the secret ritual from Xue Chuqing’s lineage. Actually, it didn’t possess powerful strength and was only a normal ritual which was used for assisting the cultivation.
However, when this ritual enveloped the cottage, there was a blurry shadow appearing in the air at the center of the cottage!
“Found it...” Yan Zhaoge muttered.
He reached out his hand cautiously, trying to touch that vague shadow.
In the meantime, Yan Zhaoge didn’t forget to circulate the profound arts of the Exalted Wood Luminary’s lineage.
Eventually, he took back his move with a folding fan showing in his hand.
The new discovery seemed a bit unremarkable.
If it were not for the secret protection which had been left here by Exalted Fire Luminary, the folding fan would have turned into ashes after all these years.
Yan Zhaoge unfolded the fan and saw a vivid real dragon with fire all over its body on the fan.
The whole painting seemed to have been drawn randomly. When being judged by the professionals, this was in fact a mediocre piece of work.
Nonetheless, the natural and free style as well as the vivifying feeling still appealed Yan Zhaoge a lot.
“... Shao Canghua presented this to Suo Mingzhang.” Seeing the sender’s name, Yan Zhaoge put on a complicated look on his face, saying, “What... on earth is the relationship between the two of you?”
Canghua Emperor was the emperor title of Exalted Wood Luminary, Shao Junhuang.
Clearly, this folding fan was a gift to Exalted Fire Luminary from Shao Junhuang.
Although it seemed like a normal gift. But most of the time people in their levels only focused on the etiquette instead of the gift itself when giving gifts.
It not surprising for Suo Mingzhang to keep Shao Junhuang’s gift all the time.
Even if Broad Creed Mountain and Earth Sovereign were incompatible as fire and water now, the gift to Yan Zhaoge’s grandfather, Yan Xingtang, from the Earth Sovereign was still reserved in the Jade Capital Crag. As simple as the gift was, people in the Jade Capital Crag were still able to keep it in excellent status for thousands of years.
But the strange thing was that this folding fan had been left in this cottage by Exalted Fire Luminary.
It was still worth mentioning that the tomb of Suo Mingzhang’s parents was right across this cottage.
Suo Mingl
an had built this cottage to guard his parents’ tomb.
When he had returned to the Fire Dragon World and lived here, he could watch his parents’ tomb and mourn them.
Thus, the appearance of this folding fan made Yan Zhaoge fall into a reverie right away.
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1211: Enter the Immortal Court Again
Exalted Fire Luminary was a loner who always did things in his own ways. So he seldom had close friends. The only person that had maintained frequent contacts with him was Shao Junhuang, the Exalted Wood Luminary.
However, according to most of the rumors, Suo Mingzhang and Shao Junhuang had always had conflicts with each other. So it was hard to say if they were in a good relationship.
Nonetheless, now that Yan Zhaoge had arrived at Suo Mingzhang’s former residence and saw the folding fan in the cottage. He then had a feeling that the relationship between these two luminaries were more complicated than he had thought.
Yan Zhaoge wasn’t sure what intention Suo Mingzhang had had by keeping this folding fan here.
But it definitely wouldn’t be hatred or hostile.
That was a good thing.
At least the thing in his hand now was not from the old enemy of the man he wanted to ask a favor from.
As for the story between Suo Mingzhang and Shao Junhuang, although Yan Zhaoge was quite curious about it, it still wasn’t the thing he concerned about the most.
Right now, Yan Zhaoge just came back to the beginning, which was how to find that Exalted Fire Luminary who had a mysterious movement.
“Should I take a chance in the Immortal Court?” Yan Zhaoge murmured that, “Going to the Immortal Court is no big deal. But I couldn’t count on the chances.”
Then he turned around the fan. As he did that, the fire dragon on the fan seemed to come to life right away.
This fan was obviously just a paper fan without any spirit qi.
However, there was a scene showing up in Yan Zhaoge’s mind.
In the dark universe, a huge fire dragon which filled the whole sky was soaring.
