Others follow advice and imitate celebrities, but you start by pretending to be a god?

After all, without the old Daoist temple above, their dragon clan's burial grounds would be left to be dug up at will by those guys from the Heavenly Court.

Now that the old training ground is here, it is enough to kill any Heavenly Court invaders!

Ultimately, all of this was just the Heavenly Court deliberately causing trouble.

If they hadn't come to the East Sea and dug up my dragon clan's ancestral graves, how could so many things have happened?
A flash of anger crossed the old Dragon King's eyes.

Watching the heavenly soldiers and generals fall one after another, and seeing the dragon princes and grandsons still suppressed and unable to move, a rare flame ignited in the crimson-gold dragon eyes of this dragon ancestor who was known throughout the three realms for his cowardice...

He suddenly had a bold idea.

Otherwise... we might rebel against the Heavenly Court?!
……

In reality, Lin Nan had never even met Zu Long.

His claims about protecting the dragon race and guarding the ancestral dragon's tomb were nothing but empty boasts.

The old dojo was established there simply because the location was chosen randomly at the time.

They built halfway through, but then realized something was wrong and the space was too small, so they left.

After Lin Nan left, the old temple was left unattended and lacked vitality and magical power to suppress it. It began to decay and evolve on its own, even reflecting many extraordinary things, and eventually became what it is today.

Lin Nan guessed that the system was responsible for this evolution.

Although Lin Nan was just fooling the old Dragon King, in reality, even if he had actually seen the Ancestral Dragon, Lin Nan would not have been afraid in the slightest.

After all, he was invincible in the Daoist temple, and even saints would give him some respect.

As for outside the dojo...

Lin Nan remained calm, her clothes fluttering in the breeze.

If labor and capital are not invincible, we will not go out.

……

"Hu, hu, hu!"

"What on earth is going on in this place?!"

Inside the dojo, Lin Nan and the old Dragon King chatted leisurely, while in the distant secret realm, the lives of many heavenly soldiers were not easy!
Endless danger!
Countless supernatural powers!
This is absolutely bizarre!
Corpses dripping with black blood, flowers exhaling ominous aura, putrid water dripping from the sky, a door opening, inside which are endless dead gods and demons...

And every now and then, a spatial rift would sweep across!
This……

Can't you give me something normal?
Can you please not be so gloomy and scary?
Faced with such a strange and terrifying place, even beings of the level of the three Star Lords felt physically and mentally exhausted!
Because they don't know when they will encounter danger, or what strange things they will encounter, they are completely unable to defend themselves!

This is so bizarre!

Just now, a celestial general at the peak of the Celestial Immortal realm stepped on a patch of yellow mud.

Then the three star deities watched helplessly as the heavenly general was instantly corrupted.

The general who had fought alongside him for countless years was now reduced to nothing but a withered ankle!

And in the forest, we encountered a dead tree struck by lightning!
Who knew this thing was dangerous?
A group of heavenly soldiers walked over and made a slight contact, instantly engulfing an area of ​​tens of thousands of feet, and everything was instantly turned into charcoal by electricity!
Even the lightning-struck wood itself was electrocuted!
The Star Lord of Greed was so angry that he trembled all over!

Is this some kind of secret training ground?
It's still your gravesite!

Is the mastermind behind this insane? Shouldn't a Taoist temple be a blessed land, brimming with good fortune and vitality? This place feels more like a death trap!
The Heavenly Court had fallen silent, the previous excitement and daze gone.

They stared at the scene below, their lips trembling with rage!

Just how many traps has this mastermind set up?
Didn't they come here to take down the mastermind behind everything?

Why does it feel like we're going through eighty-one tribulations?
At this moment, even the four great lords who were observing and overseeing from behind the scenes were starting to get restless!
They had to take action multiple times!
Because relying on those heavenly soldiers is really not enough; even if they form a great formation, it will be of no use.

As for the great gods like Yang Jian, they are fine and can protect themselves in the face of danger, but they are powerless to protect the hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers.

Seeing this, the four divine lords were afraid that if they didn't take action soon, all the heavenly soldiers and generals would be wiped out before they even reached the location of the mastermind!

All sorts of strange and bizarre things, extremely eerie, never seen before, and exceptionally dangerous!

One wrong move and you could be in danger of dying!
On the contrary, apart from the Heavenly Court, the other spectators were quite happy.

The numerous Buddhas atop Mount Ling, the highest Buddhist mountain, stared in astonishment at the scene within the secret realm, their hands clasped in prayer.

"Thank goodness I didn't get involved. If I had, I probably wouldn't have fared well."

"The Heavenly Court has really suffered a huge loss this time."

"The ancestral shrine of the Dragon Clan must be very auspicious, after all, it is the place where the ancestral dragon rests. The Heavenly Court must have taken a liking to this, which is why they planned to come and excavate their ancestral graves."

"But it's far too dangerous. After this action by the Heavenly Court, even if they obtain the fortune of the Dragon Clan's ancestral temple, their luck will likely be greatly diminished."

“Amitabha Buddha, such a despicable thing should be done this way.”

"Indeed, the Heavenly Court is utterly immoral."

"Hmm... After this trip to the East Sea, I think it is appropriate to send a few Arhats to the Lingxiao Palace to congratulate the Xuanmen on its prosperity."

Upon hearing this, the Buddhas exchanged glances, and then kind smiles appeared on their faces...

Clearly, the Buddhist sect was unaware that the Heavenly Court's visit was not to excavate the Dragon Clan's ancestral tombs, but to find the mastermind behind it all!

……

At the same time, the sea creatures and dragons were all shocked by the scene in the secret realm.

At this time, like the Buddhist sect, they were unaware of the Heavenly Court's true intentions, nor did they know what had appeared on the Dragon Clan's ancestral tomb.

They were simply shocked and excited, watching one heavenly soldier after another fall, feeling extremely happy!
"You Heavenly Court dared to dig up my ancestral graves! This is reaping what you sow!"

"Dead, huh? Hahahaha! Serves you right!"

"Don't let a single one escape. They'll all die here. None of them will get away. Yes, just wipe them out!"

"The ancestor is mighty!"

Many forces were extremely excited, and among them, the most excited were naturally the disciples of the dojo!
"Oh! Oh! That piece of yellow mud, I remember it! It was mentioned in Master's book 'Perfection'!"

"Lightning-struck wood, is that the Willow God? No, it shouldn't be. If it were the Willow God, its power wouldn't be so limited."

"Hahaha, that river formed by lightning, is it the water of the heavens from the land of the gods? At its end is a grave. Are these Heavenly Court disciples rushing there to their deaths?"

"Contaminated with ominous black corpses, tsk tsk tsk, why don't you try touching them? So what if they died and can't be reincarnated..."

Amidst the gloating gazes of the three factions, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals of the Heavenly Court continued to advance cautiously, with utmost care.

After an unknown amount of time, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

A vast, boundless lake appeared before the heavenly soldiers.

Calling it a lake seems inappropriate; it's more like a vast ocean.

Vast and boundless, stretching as far as the eye can see, it lies between heaven and earth.

It was eerily quiet here, without a sound. The black sea was calm and still.

From a distance, it looks just like a mirror, without a single ripple.

When everyone looked over, they couldn't help but shiver.

They seemed to see endless corpses falling, countless black flames and ruins, as if the whole world was collapsing and gods and men were falling from the sky like raindrops!

They seemed to be completely absorbed in it, their pupils dilated, and their faces showing utter terror.

"wake up!!"

In the distance, the God of War let out a long roar, the sound waves rolling and instantly waking all the heavenly soldiers and generals who were immersed in the music.

On the other side, the Star Lord of Greed took a step forward and found a yellowed stone tablet in front of him with words engraved on it, written in bold and powerful strokes.

"There's a stone tablet here!"

Upon hearing this, the other star lords and Yang Jian quickly walked over.

The stone tablet stands on the shore of the black ocean. It is gray all over and looks unremarkable, but as soon as you get close, you can feel a dangerous aura coming towards you.

This stone tablet has stood here for who knows how long, exuding an aura of time, as if it has existed since ancient times.

The deities looked solemn, exchanged glances, and then stared intently at the inscription on the stone tablet, only to be startled by the words on it.

It says--

"boundary marker!"

"This is the boundary sea of ​​the Daoist temple, formed from a drop of tainted blood. It is the source of chaos and can corrupt immortals, demons, and gods!"

"As the era changed, a single tree remained in the sea of ​​the Daoist temple, taking root in the Great Wilderness, bathed in lightning."

"The Boundary Sea is the core area of ​​the Daoist practice, and no living being from any realm may enter it!"

"If we force our way forward, we will surely suffer a great calamity, be stained with blood, and perish!"

"This monument is erected to warn future generations."

As the Star Lord of Greed slowly read the words on the stone tablet, he was so angry that he laughed.

They've already come this far, and you want him to go back?
Is the mastermind behind this out of their mind?

The losses have been so severe that we must find the mastermind behind this!

The other two Star Lords shared the same thought upon seeing this scene, and even the four Divine Lords waiting outside sneered.

"A mere patch of black water in the East China Sea dares to try and stop my Heavenly Court? How laughable!"

"Formed from a single drop of tainted blood? Able to corrupt even immortals, demons, and gods? What arrogance!"

"keep going!"

Outside, the four divine rulers issued direct orders.

Then, the Heavenly Army set off again.

Only Yang Jian hesitated for a moment. At this moment, he still had some rationality, but seeing the four great gods guarding the outside world, he knew that he could not retreat, so he could only bite the bullet and follow.

The dark ocean was silent.

Stepping onto the sea, not a single wave was stirred; everything was calm and seemed perfectly safe. Yet, this deathly stillness sent a chill down one's spine.
Fortunately, they walked a long way along the way, until they could no longer see the shore when they looked back, and did not encounter any danger.

"The so-called Boundary Sea, the so-called transformation from a drop of filthy blood, seems to be nothing but a charade."

"But we can't let our guard down; let's proceed cautiously."

Just as Yang Jian was relaxing a little, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being stared at by something extremely terrifying.

"what!"

Yang Jian's expression hardened, and he abruptly turned his head.

The next moment, his pupils instantly contracted to the size of pinpoints.

Yang Jian suddenly saw that an ancient black willow tree stood on the black sea.

It is rooted in the vast black ocean, its black willow branches swaying and trembling, constantly scattering chaotic energy.

The giant willow towered into the clouds, surrounded by chaos and thunder, filled with an aura of ominousness and terror!

All of this happened so suddenly!
Who could have imagined that things would turn out this way!
That dark sea was originally calm and undisturbed, so vast that it seemed to have no boundaries.

Legend has it that this Boundary Sea was formed from a drop of tainted blood, and its corrosive power is astonishing, even immortals, demons, and gods would find it difficult to resist!

However, the Heavenly Court group found the place unusually quiet as they traveled, with no danger appearing whatsoever.

But at this moment!
A dark willow tree appeared here without warning, taking root in this dark ocean!

It exuded an eerie aura, appearing without any warning, as if it had suddenly emerged from the void.

This willow tree is rooted in the dark ocean, its surroundings filled with chaotic energy, shrouded in ominous darkness. Its branches are so thick they could almost pierce through the stars!
It appeared in this world with an extremely ancient aura.

"What is this?"

Countless heavenly soldiers and generals looked horrified, their pupils instantly shrinking to the size of pinpoints!
Its appearance was so sudden!
Despite its enormous size and the crisscrossing willow branches that could almost pierce through the stars, no one noticed its presence before it arrived!

Even the four Heavenly Court Gods were completely unaware and showed no reaction whatsoever!
At this moment, dark clouds surged in this place, the sky seemed to be torn apart, the boundless firmament collapsed and shattered, as if the stars were all in a cycle of birth and fall!

"What is this? A willow tree? Why is it black?"

The pupils of the Star Lord Po Jun also contracted to the size of pinpoints, as if facing a formidable enemy. Just approaching, he felt a thorn in his back, his entire body trembling uncontrollably with fear!
In fact, not only Po Jun Xing Jun, but also the other soldiers and generals of the Heavenly Court showed shock and were at a loss!
What is this thing? Why is it so terrifying? Just one glance is enough to make one tremble and shudder!
Even the four Divine Lords behind them frowned. In particular, the Azure Dragon Divine Lord Mengzhang's expression became extremely solemn. He sensed an unusual aura emanating from the willow tree in front of him.

"Be careful."

Azure Dragon Mengzhang God Lord reminded him.

On the Heavenly Court side, everyone wore solemn expressions, completely bewildered by what this thing was. Meanwhile, the disciples at the distant Daoist temple were all utterly shocked, their scalps tingling with dread!

"This is... the Willow Goddess? This is definitely the Willow Goddess! Master actually summoned the Willow Goddess?!"

"Holy crap! A sea of ​​realms formed from a drop of blood? If I remember correctly, this drop of blood was supposed to be the source of the cholera outbreak, right?"

"Is this the boundary sea connecting to the heavens? This dilapidated dojo has actually evolved this thing?"

"The Willow Goddess, but she looks like a fallen, dark Willow Goddess!"

"It seems to be just an illusion, not the real thing!"

"No, it's not entirely the same as a strange phenomenon; it's more like an illusory existence. Although it's not real, but merely a scene manifested by the laws, it still possesses power!"

"As expected of our master!"

"But that's enough. If Second Senior Sister were here, she'd go absolutely crazy; she loves the dark!" (End of Chapter)
