The end of Gaowu: Becoming stronger from not practicing

The little golden dragon attained enlightenment and became the Dragon Emperor, bringing joy and celebration to the Boundless Starfield.

The White Tiger Immortal Emperor, the Prosperous Fortune Immortal Emperor, the Soul Heaven Emperor, and even the Yang Jun Immortal Emperor, the Golden Altar Immortal Emperor, and the Divine Soul Immortal Emperor, who are far away on the Divine Origin Continent, all sent congratulatory messages.

The Little Golden Dragon's attainment of the Dragon Emperor realm can enhance the life force of the Boundless Star Domain and bring opportunities to all living beings. This is a once-in-a-lifetime event for both the Boundless Star Domain and the Blackwater Star Domain.

Zhang Lingfeng now has one more helper.

At least in the future, Zhang Lingfeng will not be easily restrained when dealing with Bai Yang and others.

When the little golden dragon attained the title of Dragon Emperor, Zhang Lingfeng had all the beings in the Boundless Star Domain celebrate for many years.

Zuhe, Baiyang Immortal Emperor, and others were all waiting for Zulong to return with the Dragon Clan.

The little golden dragon was eager to go and settle scores with Bai Yang Immortal Emperor, to kill him and vent its anger, but Zhang Lingfeng stopped it.

"You are no match for Bai Yang right now. At least your Dragon Yuan volume must exceed 100,000. Even if you can defeat Bai Yang, it will be very difficult for you to kill him."

The Zu River flows behind him.

It would be very difficult for you to kill him, and you might even be taken hostage by Zuhe.

However, now that you have attained the status of Dragon Emperor, Zuhe certainly believes that Zulong will bring the Dragon Clan back to find you, or at least personally return to the present, and may even take you back to the past.

Zhang Lingfeng said.

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of him. The Dragon Clan has suffered so much humiliation. The Ancestral Dragon shouldn't hide in the past. He should lead the Dragon Clan back to the present and confront the Ancestral River head-on."

They hid in the past like turtles, where did the dragon race get their pride?

Little Golden Dragon has a simple mind.

They're the kind of people who'll fight anyone who disagrees.

Even though he was no match for Zuhe and Baiyang, he was never afraid.

Zhang Lingfeng, understanding the little golden dragon, comforted him, "Don't worry, the Ancestral Dragon will return. I will help your dragon clan deal with the Ancestral River and Bai Yang, and even personally hand Bai Yang over to you."

"You've come up with a solution, haven't you?"

Little Golden Dragon exclaimed excitedly.

He knew Zhang Lingfeng was extraordinary. Despite spending those hundred years seemingly doing nothing, his familiarity with Zhang Lingfeng told him perfectly well that Zhang Lingfeng was brewing a powerful move. Um...
"Ah."

Zhang Lingfeng nodded.

He couldn't explain himself clearly yet.

He is now undoubtedly the strongest level six Soul Master in the Upper World, with a Soul Essence volume that even surpasses that of the Divine Soul Immortal Emperor and the Soul Heaven Emperor.

They have already reached the threshold of a level seven Soul Master.

What I need to do now is find a way to gain the approval of Heaven and become a genuine level seven Soul Master.

Once he becomes a level seven Soul Master, he can help the Dragon Clan repair the Dragon Pearl. With the Dragon Pearl, the power of the water veins can be consolidated, so that at least when facing the Ancestral River, the water veins controlled by the Dragon Clan will not be easily taken away by the Ancestral River.

But the premise is.

All of this must be done secretly.

Although it is clear that Zuhe may now hope to attain the seventh level of Soul Master and help the Dragon Clan repair the Dragon Ball, if everything is carried out under Zuhe's supervision.

That would put us in a passive position.

Once Zuhe launches an attack, he will find it very difficult to achieve victory.

Therefore, Zhang Lingfeng wanted to secretly prove himself as a seventh-level Soul Master, secretly help the Dragon Clan repair the Dragon Pearl, give the Dragon Clan enough time to use the Dragon Pearl to consolidate the power of the water veins, and ensure that the power of the water veins would not be easily taken away by the Ancestral River, before returning to the present to deal with the Ancestral River together.

Then, when facing the Zu River, it wouldn't collapse at the first touch.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, another three years passed.

During this period, Zhang Lingfeng did not leave the Wuji Starfield.

Today, he heard the roar of a dragon from a distant time and space.

"finally come."

Zhang Lingfeng opened his eyes.

Close the chessboard in front of you.

He wants to go back to the past again to see the Ancestral Dragon and meet the Ancestral Dragon himself.

Last time, he was an incarnation of will, and under the guidance of the Ancestral Dragon's Dao, he entered the spacetime where the Ancestral Dragon and the others lived. This time, Zhang Lingfeng wants to return directly to the spacetime where the Ancestral Dragon and the others live.

My true form descended upon that space-time.

After much thought, Zhang Lingfeng came up with a method that would allow him to become a seventh-level Soul Master without being easily discovered.

That means going back to the point in time when Zu Long and the others were.

Even if we knew exactly which point in time the Ancestral Dragon led the Dragon Clan to hide, the Ancestral River couldn't find it; it could only vaguely sense a location.

If my true self could enter that point in time.

Even if Zuhe sensed something, he couldn't accurately know that Zuhe had achieved the seventh level of Soul Mastery inside.

He can even repair the Dragon Balls in the time tunnel.

They prepared relevant plans with the Dragon Clan.

In this way, when the dragons return to the present, everyone will be ready to fight, and their chances of winning against the ancestral river will be increased.

At least in the past, proving oneself to the seventh level of Soul Master could avoid many dangers once successful.

Back then, the patriarchs were imprisoned in the White Ocean Star Region, losing their physical bodies and never able to see the light of day again.

How do I compare to the founders of that time?

Therefore, Zhang Lingfeng dared not be overconfident.

He must avoid all risks.

However, he was unable to directly enter the timeline where the Ancestral Dragon was located.

Even with his current strength, he could reverse time and spacetime to return to a certain point in the past, but he could never return to such a distant past.

It is absolutely impossible to live in peace.

There is absolutely no way to escape Zuhe's pursuit.

Only by returning to the current point in time for Zu Long and the others can Zhang Lingfeng ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Just then, the little golden dragon attained the status of Dragon Emperor.

The Wuji Starfield can be entrusted to his management.

Before the ancestral dragon returns to the present, the ancestral river will not act rashly.

Zhang Lingfeng can go all out.

Therefore, he had previously approached the Old Dragon King and asked him to inform the Ancestral Dragon about this matter, so that the Ancestral Dragon could make arrangements for his true self to return to the same point in time as them.

Of course, Zhang Lingfeng didn't say that he wanted to prove himself as a seventh-level Soul Master at a point in the past.

He simply told the old Dragon King that if he could return to the time and space where the Ancestral Dragon and the others lived, he might be able to repair the Dragon Pearl, help the Dragon Clan protect the water veins, and fight against the Ancestral River together.

Zu Long considered it for three years.

Or perhaps they've been preparing for three years.

Finally, he responded to Zhang Lingfeng at this moment.

Zhang Lingfeng saw a magic array.

I saw a time tunnel.

In the Boundless Starfield, his Dao techniques can cover all power. Especially now that he possesses the peak strength of a sixth-level Soul Master, even Zuhe cannot easily glimpse the secrets of this place.

However, once he proves himself to be a seventh-level Soul Master...

The resulting changes in the natural order.

They certainly cannot escape the ancestral river's perception.

Therefore, Zhang Lingfeng could only seek to return to a point in the past and be in the same time and space as Zulong and the others. He did this both to avoid Zuhe's pursuit and to hope to gain the protection of Zulong and the others.

Such a powerful team.

I can absolutely guarantee that he will not encounter any danger.

At least in the past.

Zhang Lingfeng is more confident in achieving the seventh level of Soul Master.

With the help of the Ancestral Dragon, Zhang Lingfeng entered the spacetime tunnel under the expectant gaze of the Old Dragon King, enveloped by the Ancestral Dragon's Daoist power. He quickly disappeared into the Boundless Starfield.

Zhang Lingfeng publicly claimed that he was in seclusion for cultivation.

All matters, big and small, in the Boundless Star Domain were handled by the Dragon King. If danger arose, the little golden dragon would step in, and if that was not enough, the dragon would be asked to come out of seclusion.

They deceived Zuhe through various lies and schemes.

Of course, Zhang Lingfeng knew that Zuhe was not so easy to deceive. He could be fooled in a short time, but he would definitely be unable to do so in a long time.

With the help of Zu Long.

Zhang Lingfeng finally returned to the past.

He saw time reversed and space reversed.

Scenes from the past seemed to appear before my eyes, playing in turn.

My vision started to blur.

A powerful force gathered, trying to stop him and crush him in space and time.

"Your life began less than five hundred years ago, while our dragon race lived over the past tens of thousands of years."

If you truly wish to follow me back to the distant past, you must first pass the test of the Heavenly Dao of Time.

If you can withstand it, you can come back to the past with me.

If we can't resist, there's nothing I can do.

Zu Long reminded him.

Not every life form can easily travel back in time, especially ten thousand years ago.

"it is good!"

Zhang Lingfeng nodded.

The Immortal Emperor's true essence trembled slightly.

The feeling of being squeezed disappeared quickly.

Although the pressure from the Heavenly Dao of Time continued, everything became very simple and easy under the influence of over 160,000 Immortal Emperor True Essence Power.

Zu Long was utterly astonished.

The dragon race possesses powerful physical bodies covered in dragon scales. Although the laws of time can harm them, they can withstand them.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Lingfeng not only withstood it, but also did so with such ease, as if he were completely unaffected.

This was truly unexpected for him.

He couldn't help but stare at Zhang Lingfeng in horror.

"Senior, how much longer?"

Zhang Lingfeng inquired.

Within the spacetime tunnel, all surrounding perception was extremely blurry; only the power emanating from the Heavenly Dao of Time was clearly visible.

Fortunately, there was nothing they could do about Zhang Lingfeng.

Zhang Lingfeng's current Immortal Emperor True Essence has already touched the threshold of True God, and he is transforming towards Divine Essence. He only needs to create the Heavenly Dao and overturn the power of the Heavenly Dao to prove himself as a True God.

The power of these life forms far exceeded the imagination of Zu Long and others.

Although the Time Dao of the Time Tunnel could put pressure on Zhang Lingfeng and even harm him, it could not stop him from entering ten thousand years ago.

At this moment, he appeared calm and composed.

This wasn't him deliberately showing off, nor was it because things were as easy as they seemed on the surface. Rather, he knew that to gain the dragons' trust, he couldn't hide his true abilities.

Otherwise, if he keeps it hidden, the dragons will only care about themselves in the end, and they will probably abandon him quickly when danger comes.

This is human nature.

For a partnership to last, there must be shared interests and the other party must demonstrate trustworthy capabilities.

"almost."

Zu Long smiled and nodded.

Just as Zhang Lingfeng had imagined, seeing Zhang Lingfeng so calm and collected, Zulong valued him even more and for the first time believed that perhaps Zhang Lingfeng really had the potential to help the Dragon Clan repair the Dragon Pearl, allowing the Dragon Clan to return to the past and fight against the Ancestral River together.

For so many years, the First Dragon led the Dragon Clan to hide in the distant past; one can only imagine how frustrated he must have felt.

However, in order for the Dragon Balls to be able to reproduce, in order to protect the power of the water veins, to prevent the dragon race from being enslaved by the Ancestral River, and to prevent the Ancestral River from becoming a true god, the Ancestral Dragon could only silently endure.

Perhaps the time is coming.

The dragon race finally saw a glimmer of hope for victory.

As the past ten thousand years drew ever closer, the pressure from the Heavenly Dao of Time grew stronger, and Zhang Lingfeng could no longer maintain his calm and composed demeanor.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

But this was also very shocking to Zu Long.

Finally, a glimmer of light appeared.

Zhang Lingfeng and Zu Long emerged from the time tunnel together.

They arrived at the Dragon Valley, which existed ten thousand years ago.

The dragon race thrived and multiplied here.

The vitality here is incredibly strong.

Zhang Lingfeng possessed peak level six soul essence power and a true essence volume of over 16 for the Immortal Emperor, and quickly sensed the fluctuations in the water vein's power.

Although it had come before, it was only an avatar of will and was controlled by the Ancestral Dragon.

My feelings about this place are very vague.

He didn't even know which point in time Zu Long and the others were hiding in.

At this moment, the true self descends.

Zhang Lingfeng knew the exact time and location of Zulong and the others. He was certain that Zulong trusted him, otherwise he would not have allowed his true form to descend to this place.

Otherwise, if he were to tell Zuhe about this, the Dragon Clan would face annihilation. Even if Zuhe could not seize these water vein powers at this point in time, it would still cause great harm to the Dragon Clan.

At that time, in order to survive, the dragon race might compromise with the ancestral river.

Contributing the power of the water veins to the ancestral river, or even being enslaved by it, is clearly an intolerable thing for the proud dragon race.

"Thank you, senior."

Zhang Lingfeng expressed his gratitude.

"Now can you tell me how to help our dragon race repair the Dragon Ball?"

"Zu Long asked."

He had already learned that the little golden dragon had attained the Dao of Dragon Emperor and become another great emperor of the dragon race. The fact that it was able to crush the Dao of Dragon Emperor so easily was not only related to the water veins contributed by the Yellow River, but also closely related to the appearance of Zhang Lingfeng.

If Zhang Lingfeng hadn't guided the Changhe River to separate into the Yellow River, allowing it to enter the Wuji Starfield from the Blackwater Starfield, penetrate the world barrier from the lower world, enter the upper world, and settle in the Wuji Starfield, the Yellow River wouldn't have been able to thrive and multiply.

The little golden dragon was also unable to see the Yellow River in the world above.

Even if the Yellow River possessed the power of its water veins, it could not have handed it over to the little golden dragon at that time.

Therefore, the little golden dragon was able to attain the status of Dragon Emperor.

It has a lot to do with Zhang Lingfeng.

Emperor Zulong was fully aware of this matter.

After years of observation and considering Zhang Lingfeng's past actions, Zulong believed that Zhang Lingfeng was a powerful emperor who would not easily harm life, would earnestly protect life, and would even risk his life for the life he protected.

Such a person would not harm the dragon race.

At least it won't be polluted by the ancestral river.

Finally, the decision was made: he would open the time tunnel alone and bring Zhang Lingfeng here before the Ancestral River discovered it.

He could sense that Zhang Lingfeng's strength seemed to have become very powerful.

However, with their current strength, repairing the Dragon Balls would still be somewhat difficult.

Zhang Lingfeng glanced around.

After confirming that no third life form could perceive his conversation with the Ancestral Dragon, he said, "I want to gain the approval of the Heavenly Dao in this space-time and successfully prove myself as a seventh-level Soul Master." (End of Chapter)
