Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Capítulo 1417: Chapter 3: Emperor Taiyin

The aura emanating from this group of black-clad fighters was exceptionally powerful and terrifying; each of them was a top-notch master.

Upon hearing the leader’s question, one of the black-clad fighters immediately said, “That’s right! Hiding here for three hundred years already.”

“And the Emperor’s daughter?” asked the leader of the black-clad fighters.

“Saw her from afar, she seems to have broken free from the stone material, but she should have only emerged a few years ago and is still very young,” the black-clad fighter continued.

“Capture her alive…”

The leader of the black-clad fighters instructed.

“Yes, sir…”

Swish, swish, swish!

Then, one by one, the black-clad fighters darted out.

Surroundings.

A thick fog spread out.

It was evident these people understood formations, and in an extremely short time, they successfully set up a formation.

They silently opened the shop’s door and then infiltrated the shop.

These street-facing shops have courtyards at the back, along with rooms for lodging.

In the darkness, these black-clad fighters entered one room after another.

Slash, slash!

Several shop clerks were beheaded on the spot, and then all the black-clad fighters converged in the central room.

One black-clad fighter summoned mana.

Mana surged into the room, enveloping the door bolt.

Then pulled the bolt to the right.

The bolt that was inserted from inside was thus opened.

Then these black-clad fighters cautiously pushed open the door and all slipped into the room.

In the darkness, a cold light suddenly burst forth.

Splash…

The sound of five consecutive rips was heard.

Five black-clad fighters were instantly torn through the carotid arteries by the cold glint, blood sprayed, and the five black-clad fighters fell to the ground, dead.

“We’ve been discovered, attack with full force to kill him, but don’t harm the Emperor’s daughter.”

A long whistle rang out.

Over a dozen black-clad fighters began fighting with the cultivators inside.

Clang, clang, clang…

The sound of metal clashing rang out, along with the sound of bodies being torn apart. Shortly after, a blood-stained cultivator rushed out.

This cultivator turned out to be Zhou Shijun.

Little Yaoyao was bound to Zhou Shijun’s chest with a long cloth.

Zhou Shijun had just rushed out but was immediately surrounded by the black-clad fighters waiting outside.

“So the Emperor’s daughter has indeed emerged.”

The leader of the black-clad fighters stood in mid-air, his expression cold.

“You’ve been haunting us like an evil spirit, have you forgotten the Great Emperor’s kindness from back then? This is the Great Emperor’s only progeny,” Zhou Shijun said through gritted teeth.

“Of course we remember the Great Emperor’s kindness from back then, but as they say, ‘great grace knows no thanks’, forgotten like strangers in the Jianghu, the old kindness has long dissipated with the wind. Zhou Shijun, if it weren’t for you stealing the stone material sealing the Emperor’s daughter, we wouldn’t have spent three hundred years searching. You deserve ten thousand deaths; end it yourself, and you might die a little more pleasantly,” the leader of the black-clad fighters said indifferently.

“Even if it costs my life, I will ensure Little Yaoyao’s safety,” Zhou Shijun shouted, holding a long blade and began cutting his way out.

It’s hard to imagine that someone as gentle as Zhou Shijun uses a Blood Dragon Great Blade as a weapon, striking out with it, blood light soared to the sky.

“Zhou Shijun, why make futile struggles? There was a rumor when the Emperor’s daughter was sealed by the Great Emperor that she possesses the Supreme Dao Body. It’s a natural supreme destiny! We are waiting to use the Emperor’s daughter’s blood to irrigate the Divinity Transformation Tree, waiting for it to blossom and bear fruit,” the leading black-clad fighter said sinisterly.

The Divinity Transformation Tree is an ancient tree of legend, reportedly an innate ancient tree, formed before the creation of the world, capable of bearing the God Transformation Fruit.

This God Transformation Fruit is incredibly precious.

If a cultivator in the Quasi-God Realm consumes the God Transformation Fruit, they will immediately break through to the God Realm.

If a cultivator in the God Realm consumes the God Transformation Fruit, their cultivation will significantly increase.

But it’s not easy to make the God Transformation Fruit bear fruit. It’s said it requires irrigation with blood close to Emperor Blood to bear the God Transformation Fruit.

The Great Emperor possesses Emperor Blood, but obviously Emperor Blood is not to be found.

Then,

there’s only one possibility left.

That is to find the Great Emperor’s progeny.

Little Yaoyao is the daughter of Emperor Taiyin.

In the Ancient Era, a mysterious and ancient Exotic Realm opened up channels to the Exile Great World from the Exotic Realm.

Exotic Realm Cultivators invaded the Exile Great World; countless lives perished, turning the Exile Great World into a purgatory.

At that time, Emperor Taiyin traveled beyond the realm with his daughter Little Yaoyao.

Witnessing the devastation of the Exile Great World, Emperor Taiyin couldn’t bear to see millions perish at the hands of the Exotic Realm Cultivators, so he intervened, leading the Exile Great World’s Cultivator Army to resist the Exotic Realm Cultivators.

Because he couldn’t look after his daughter, Little Yaoyao,

and worried about handing Little Yaoyao over to others for upbringing, fearing the Exotic Realm Cultivators might discover her, Emperor Taiyin sealed the two-year-old Little Yaoyao in stone material.

That war was too brutal, lasting over a thousand years, and under the leadership of Emperor Taiyin, the cultivators of the Exile Great World barely achieved a bitter victory.

However, Emperor Taiyin was severely injured in that battle.

He entrusted Little Yaoyao to a follower who had accompanied him in numerous battles.

Over years of warfare with the Exotic Realm Cultivators, this cultivator had developed deep friendship with Emperor Taiyin.

Thus, this person was not only Emperor Taiyin’s follower but also his friend.

With this person taking care of Little Yaoyao, Emperor Taiyin felt at ease.

And this person was none other than an ancestor of Zhou Shijun.

Soon, Emperor Taiyin perished.

The Zhou Family continued to care for the sealed Little Yaoyao.

Because Little Yaoyao was young, she fell into a slumber after being sealed.

Forcing awakening on a sleeping life in stone material typically harms their soul.

Hence, the Zhou Family didn’t dare awaken Little Yaoyao who was sealed in stone.

And so, this sleep lasted for a million years.

The once-prosperous Zhou Family declined over time.

Meanwhile, other forces set their sights on Little Yaoyao.

Although they couldn’t obtain Emperor Blood to irrigate the Divinity Transformation Tree, Little Yaoyao, sealed and asleep in stone, was Emperor Taiyin’s daughter, and her Supreme Dao Body meant her bloodline was only slightly inferior to that of her father, Emperor Taiyin.

So these people aimed to capture Little Yaoyao, then raise her like livestock.

Every so often, they’d extract a portion of Little Yaoyao’s blood to irrigate the Divinity Transformation Tree.

Consequently, these forces besieged the Zhou Family, exterminating them, but during that time, Zhou Shijun, the Young Master of the Zhou Family, stole the stone material sealing Little Yaoyao and escaped through a secret passage. He lived incognito until three years ago when Little Yaoyao awakened from her slumber.

And now, these people, after searching for three hundred years, have finally found Zhou Shijun and Little Yaoyao.

Zhou Shijun fought as if betting his life, slaying over a dozen masters.

However, he was also left with many wounds, bleeding profusely, some of which stained Little Yaoyao’s face.

“Girl, don’t be afraid. Uncle will take you out,” Zhou Shijun forced a smile.

“Little Yaoyao is not afraid of these bad people,” Little Yaoyao said, biting her lip, though her big eyes were filled with tears, reaching out a small hand to cover Zhou Shijun’s wounds. However, the blood from Zhou Shijun’s wounds flowed more and more.

Zhou Shijun valiantly fought off enemies, carrying Little Yaoyao as he charged out of the courtyard, darting away but was blocked by the formation.

“A bunch of useless fools, so many people dead and you still can’t kill one person,” the leader of the black-clad fighters said grimly, wielding a giant sword as he descended from the sky, attacking Zhou Shijun.

Zhou Shijun swung his blade to counter.

Clang! Zhou Shijun’s long blade was directly cut off.

Squish…

Immediately afterward.

Zhou Shijun’s entire arm was chopped off.
