Chapter 10: Golden Immortal Perfection, Escaping the Dragon Clan
Buzz...
A blinding light appeared, and the immense cause of creation vanished without a trace.
Instead, a wisp of innate Ren water energy appeared in Qinglian's heart, along with a piece of information.
"Is this... the location of an innate spiritual root?"
Qinglian was taken aback.
The evil energy within the 70,000 great rivers has been cleared, leaving only 365 streams of innate Ren water energy to condense. Any more would cause drastic changes to the rivers and damage the foundation of the Dujiang River.
To compensate Qinglian, the remaining forces of creation coalesced and directly pointed him to the location of a primordial spiritual root.
"You can do that?"
This really surprised him.
But what followed was ecstasy.
"Three hundred and sixty-five strands of innate Ren water energy are not only enough for me to advance another rank, but obtaining an innate spiritual root is also a great fortune!"
Suppressing her joy, Qinglian did not hesitate.
All 365 streams of innate Ren water energy were absorbed into the roots and stems of the green lotus.
boom!
Endless blue light appeared.
A new lotus leaf appeared on the blue lotus, and the flower had thirteen petals!
The remaining two hundred or so strands of innate Ren water energy did not give birth to new petals.
It was absorbed by the Azure Lotus and used to enhance its own foundation.
Qinglian's aura surged.
In the blink of an eye, he broke through to the perfect Golden Immortal realm.
"What a stroke of luck!"
Qinglian smiled.
Unfortunately, he failed to create a follow-up cultivation method for his "Creation and Transformation Technique," otherwise it would have allowed him to break through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm in one fell swoop.
"It's alright. As long as you have a solid foundation, you will naturally learn the methods of cultivation after the Dao Ancestor begins his teachings."
Qinglian didn't care at all.
In this primordial world, it's not about who is the strongest, but who can live the longest.
Feeling her own strength, Qinglian suppressed her desire to find that innate spiritual root and slowly calmed down.
The primordial chaos lasted for countless years.
With the arrival of 50,000 dragons in Dujiang, they gained control of the Dujiang waterways.
The battle between the two races intensified.
Even someone like Qinglian, who spends all his time in seclusion, is often forced to go out and fight.
Fortunately, he obtained the Immortal Binding Rope, which allowed him to trap his opponents and drag them into the White River, where he secretly killed them with the Primordial Measuring Ruler.
That puts me at ease for now.
On that very day.
While Qinglian was cultivating, the entire Baihe River suddenly trembled violently.
Qinglian suddenly opened her eyes, "This vibration..."
Splash!
The blue lotus leaped out of the water veins and looked towards the direction of Dujiang.
As far as the eye could see, the entire Dujiangyan waterway was trembling.
Seventy thousand rivers boiled continuously, causing the ground to tremble.
When Qinglian was confused, she felt her own luck rapidly slipping away.
"not good!"
Qinglian's expression changed drastically.
At this rate, it won't be long before his luck completely disappears.
Luck is related to one's own cultivation. If one lets one's luck slip away, everything will go wrong, and it is only natural that one might be killed by a stone when going out.
Buzz...
The twelfth-grade pure white lotus landed on Qinglian's brow, radiating light and suppressing his fortune.
This stopped his own fortune from rapidly dissipating.
I felt my luck disappear by 70% in that instant.
Qinglian's face turned extremely ugly.
In an instant, he became someone with shallow fortune.
No one would look happy.
And in the distance.
It wasn't just his fortune that was slipping away; the fortunes of all the Golden Immortal level dragons within the entire Dujiang River basin were also slipping away.
These vital energies converge within the Dujiang River and then flow from the Dujiang waterways towards the East China Sea.
"Haha! With the convergence of destiny, the Dragon King of my Dragon Clan is about to be born!"
Ao Shan was overjoyed.
The Azure Dragon and White Dragon beside him also showed joy.
But the next moment.
A powerful aura flew in from afar.
Ao Shan looked up and said to the Azure Dragon and White Dragon beside him, "The Qilin Clan is hindering our Dragon Clan's grand plan! Stop them!"
boom!
Without saying a word, the two Taiyi Golden Immortals charged towards the distance.
Upon seeing this, Ao Shan flickered his palm, and a pure white cassia appeared in his hand.
The Daoist inscriptions on it signify its sacredness.
"Do not panic, all of you! With the protection of the dragon clan's fortune, there is nothing to worry about!"
Ao Shan's words, carried by Yu Gui, spread throughout the hearts of every dragon in the Dujiang River basin.
Qinglian also heard Aoshan's words.
However, he felt even heavier inside.
"If I continue to be protected by the dragon clan's fortune, I will never be able to leave the dragon clan again!"
His own fortune has been absorbed, and when he draws in more fortune, it is the fortune of the dragon race that is poured in.
One's luck will definitely be bound to the luck of the dragon race.
The great calamity that befell the three races was devastating, earth-shattering, and resulted in countless deaths and injuries.
Qinglian had no desire to participate at all.
He also understood why Ao Shan had previously agreed to let him leave the Dragon Clan.
Without luck, leaving the dragon clan means death!
They can only stay in the dragon clan.
That's quite a clever plan.
"Very well, I'll sacrifice seventy percent of my own fortune to gain a chance to escape the Dragon Clan. Consider it a way to secure my own survival!"
Qinglian's expression was solemn as she looked at the dragon talisman within her sea of consciousness; she had already made her decision.
"The Great Dao is above, I am Qinglian, forced to join the Dragon Clan and enjoy the Dragon Clan's fortune;
Today, seventy percent of my opportunities were taken by the Dragon Clan. I have already repaid my karmic debt to the Dragon Clan. Today, I break away from the Dragon Clan, hoping the Great Dao will understand!
Qinglian looked up at the void and shouted loudly.
The moment his words fell.
On Aoshan in Dujiangyan, a look of fury appeared on his face.
"Qinglian, you're courting death!"
His voice, transmitted through the jade cassia tree, reached the hearts of all the dragons.
Ao Guang and Ao Rui, who were far away in Yuanhe and Fenghe, had drastic changes in expression and showed a hint of anxiety.
But how could the two of them withstand the might of a Taiyi Golden Immortal?
Moreover, neither of them possesses any luck right now. Leaving the waters they control and losing the protection of the dragon clan's luck, they might very well die.
They could only stand there anxiously.
In the distance, Ao Shan was already flying towards Qing Lian.
Choosing to leave the Dragon Clan at this time is undoubtedly a slap in the face to the Dragon Clan.
Ao Shan originally intended to keep Qinglian and nurture her to serve the dragon clan in the future.
Now it seems, this child cannot be allowed to live!
A massive killing intent instantly swept across the entire Dujiang area.
Countless dragons remained silent, secretly thinking that Qinglian possessed great ambition.
Qinglian couldn't care less about any of that at this moment. After he ascended to the Great Dao, a powerful and majestic aura appeared.
It is the aura of the Great Dao.
Sensing the Dao, the dragon talismans on his body turned to dust and vanished without a trace.
Along with the dragon's fortune, it also left the Azure Lotus and disappeared without a trace.
Qinglian felt a sudden sense of relief as she experienced the changes within herself.
However, as Da Dao left, Ao Shan's murderous intent also emerged.
Qinglian's expression hardened slightly, and she stood there with a cold gaze.
boom!
A powerful killing intent fell from the void.
A golden dragon tens of thousands of feet long looked coldly at Qinglian.
"Qinglian, die!"
Ao Shan's murderous voice echoed across the Dujiang River.
Qinglian stood on the White River, sensing the dangers all around her, and looked up at the giant dragon.
"I was forced to join the Dragon Clan. Today you have taken seventy percent of my fortune, plus my removal of evil energy from the seventy thousand water veins of Dujiang."
I have repaid my debts to the dragons, and naturally I must leave them.
Ao Shan was furious.
Without another word, a giant dragon claw slammed down towards the green lotus.
