The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

Chapter 170 Golden Crow Shines in the Sun

Deep within the void of the Three Realms, extremely close to the Supreme Star, the Sun, a world has emerged from chaos.

This world, at first glance, is a vast world of fire. Endless, blazing golden flames can be seen burning rampantly everywhere.

At the center of the world, a colossal tree, reaching straight into the clouds, stands majestically, much like the world tree of the entire universe.

The enormous tree canopy piercing the clouds resembled a giant island suspended in the air, upon which stretched a continuous expanse of golden palaces.

Inside the most magnificent palace above, the sound of the Great Dao echoed in the air, while many powerful gods, demons, and monsters sat cross-legged on futons, listening attentively.

Of course, the most numerous creatures in this hall were the golden crows, divine beasts with golden feathers.

Above this grand hall, an old man in a golden robe sat cross-legged, concealing the fluctuations of his aura and appearing extremely ordinary.

But what he casually recounted contained countless profound mysteries of the 'Tao'.

During a break in the sermon.

"Master." The golden crow, whose aura was clearly at the level of a celestial god, looked at the old man above.

"Hmm? Fu Yan?" The old man in the golden robe looked over. "Speak."

"This disciple still wants to give it my all. If I still can't get close to that golden rainbow of the sun..." the Golden Crow Flame God gritted his teeth and said, "This is the last time, this disciple is willing to try with all my might!"

"Give it your all? With your strength, there's almost no chance at all." The golden-robed elder shook his head.

"To tame the Golden Rainbow of the Sun and cultivate this escape technique, one must possess the purest bloodline of the Golden Crow clan. Although you are the one with the purest bloodline among my disciples, but..."

"Don't try it. That golden rainbow of the sun is a manifestation of the sun's golden flames after they gained sentience, and its power far surpasses that of true fire..."

The old man in the golden robe didn't say much, but his meaning was quite clear. Moreover, what he was saying was common knowledge known to everyone in the Three Realms.

Everyone knows that the supernatural power "Golden Rainbow of the Sun" is the most powerful supernatural escape technique in the Three Realms. However, if one is not a pure-blooded Golden Crow, born with the purest Golden Crow bloodline on the Sun Star, there is no hope of taming and controlling it.

The ancestral god Zhurong was incredibly powerful. Born with control over the Heavenly Dao of Fire, the Zhurong Divine Fire he created possessed power in no way inferior to the golden flames of the sun. Yet, even he ultimately failed.

It should be understood that the golden rainbow of the sun is essentially a beam of light, which can only be controlled by a golden crow.

It is not a divine beast with the bloodline of the Golden Crow.

"This..." Fu Yan Tianshen's eyes showed a trace of unwillingness. Was he really going to be a moth drawn to a flame?

Being able to control the true fire of the sun at the level of a celestial being is already the limit for someone who possesses the bloodline of the Golden Crow Divine Beast.

As for the even more powerful solar golden flames, or even the solar golden rainbow with spirituality, only those with the purest Golden Crow bloodline could possibly control them at the level of a celestial being.

"Step down! This sermon is over... Hmm?" The old man in the golden robe above was speaking when a look of doubt suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"This god..."

His consciousness instantly enveloped the figure rapidly approaching the Sun Star. Under his consciousness, the figure gave him a very special feeling, yet it was also incredibly familiar.

"Pure-blooded Golden Crow? No, no!"

The old man in the golden robe shook his head and said, "Apart from the little golden crow that was born from the sun star when the Three Realms were created, there has never been a pure three-legged golden crow ever born again!"

"But this god..."

Wow.

With a thought, the old man in the golden robe immediately vanished from the hall.

Some things can only be seen on the surface by using mental perception alone.

Such as the aura of bloodline... he could only be completely certain after seeing it with his own eyes.

……

"Huh? I just came to the Sun Star, and I've already attracted so much attention?"

Lei Zhan's figure was like a streak of light; even a distance of hundreds of thousands of miles could be covered in the blink of an eye with the use of the Floating Light Shadow technique.

What frustrated Lei Zhan was that his trip to the Sun Star attracted the attention of countless powerful beings at the level of True Gods and Dao Ancestors.

You must know that Lei Zhan has now broken through to the True God level, and his Qi cultivation is also the most powerful First-Class True Immortal. His soul and true spirit are incredibly powerful.

With a single thought, one's consciousness can completely encompass the three realms. If one then uses mental power, this range can be expanded several times over.

The consciousness released by those powerful beings completely enveloped him and the supreme star, the Sun Star, before him, and he could perceive it all with perfect clarity.

"In the blink of an eye, there have been thirty or forty different consciousnesses. And there are probably even more looking this way!"

Lei Zhan felt helpless, but he could only pretend not to see it.

One can be a true immortal on the surface, but there's no way to probe the minds of those true gods and Dao ancestors.

Lei Zhan ignored it and took a step, instantly arriving above the Sun Star.

Here, the temperature emanating from the entire Sun Star is even more terrifying, and the fiery flames of the Sun Star can be clearly seen burning on its surface.

The endless blazing fire of the sun surged forth, forming a raging sea of ​​fire.

"Wow~~~"

suddenly.

An old man in golden robes appeared before Lei Zhan. Although the old man looked very ordinary, anyone who could appear on this supreme star, the Sun Star, was naturally a powerful being at the level of a True God or Dao Ancestor.

“The Golden Crow Dao Ancestor?” Lei Zhan recognized the person immediately.

Before the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor even arrived, Lei Zhan sensed something amiss and immediately recognized him by using his mental energy to investigate.

The Sun Star is one of the two supreme stars in the Three Realms, so it is impossible for it to be directly occupied by a powerful being in the Three Realms.

Although this supreme star is the territory of the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor, in reality, after the events of ancient times, the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor became extremely low-key after the Goddess Nuwa intervened and saved his life.

After the Three Realms were born, it was nothing more than creating a great world in the void and chaos near the Sun Star. "Golden Crow Dao Ancestor," Lei Zhan said with a smile as he bowed.

"Hmm." The old man in the golden robe nodded slightly, but his gaze never left Lei Zhan.

Wow.

With a wave of his hand, the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor was immediately surrounded by endless, terrifying golden flames. The flames roared and instantly formed a huge fireball that enveloped the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor and Lei Zhan.

This fireball, composed of countless golden flames, is hollow inside.

"Golden Flames of the Sun?"

Lei Zhan sensed the intense heat of the surrounding flames; this was a fire far surpassing the true fire of the sun. It was hotter and more violent than the true fire of the sun.

"Ah."

Standing in the center of the fireball, the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor smiled and said, "I used a secret technique to activate this solar golden flame, which can block the detection of more than 90% of True God Dao Ancestor level beings. Although I am not confident that I can block the perception of those few top-level beings, this is enough."

"The Dao Ancestor is looking for me?" Lei Zhan asked curiously.

The Golden Crow Dao Ancestor looked at Lei Zhan and said slowly, "From you, I sensed the aura of pure Golden Crow bloodline. But it belongs to two completely different auras..."

"One of them came from my eldest brother. The other one came from my seventh brother..."

The Golden Crow Dao Ancestor only chose to reveal himself because he sensed the extremely faint bloodline aura emanating from Lei Zhan's body.

"Big brother? Seventh brother?" Lei Zhan pondered, vaguely understanding something.

The Golden Crow Ancestor gazed down at the enormous star below and said, "In ancient times, the Sun Star gave birth to ten Golden Crows at once, and we were all born at almost the same time. My eldest brother was the strongest and was the first to be born; he later became the Golden Crow Demon Emperor..."

A hint of reminiscence flickered in the eyes of the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor.

When they were first conceived, they were all gods. Because of their Golden Crow bloodline, they were born with the ability to easily learn the top-tier escape technique, the Golden Rainbow of the Sun.

The ten celestial beings were incredibly fast, and none could match their speed. They were quite arrogant back then. Of course, they also caused a lot of trouble.

After their elder brother broke through to the level of a true god, they became even more arrogant and committed many great sins at that time.

but……

Everything is because of that man.

Bend the bow and nock the arrow.

A mere celestial being almost managed to exterminate all ten of them, the Golden Crows.

With just a few arrows, the legend of the Ten Golden Crows was easily extinguished.

“I still can’t forget that terrible scene. If it weren’t for the intervention of Goddess Nuwa…” Jinwu Daozu shook his head, “Since you have the aura of your elder brother in your bloodline, you must have a very deep connection with ‘him’.”

“I don’t want to dwell on the past, nor do I have the ability to do so. I’ve come here simply to see the bloodline descendants left by Seventh Brother.”

The stacks stood silently.

In the entire Three Realms, there are only two possible types of pure-blooded Golden Crows.

One possibility is that the sun is reborn.

One method is for a divine beast possessing the bloodline of the Golden Crow to receive the pure bloodline of the Golden Crow, thereby transforming its own bloodline.

Therefore, once Lei Zhan's second primordial spirit appears in the Three Realms, this truth cannot be concealed, nor is there any need to conceal it.

The powerful are not fools; they could easily guess this possibility.

However, none of those powerful beings could discern the exact origin of Lei Zhan's Golden Crow bloodline as accurately as the Golden Crow Dao Ancestor before them.

"Sigh." The Golden Crow Dao Ancestor's eyes were filled with complex emotions. The gaze, which was mixed with all sorts of feelings, turned into a sigh.

call.

The golden flames of the sun dissipated, leaving only a figure in a golden robe above the supreme star, the Sun.

Lei Zhan shook his head slightly. He wasn't really a member of the Golden Crow clan, so naturally he wouldn't have so many feelings.

For Lei Zhan now, cultivating the supernatural power "Golden Rainbow of the Sun" and mastering the golden flames of the sun is the most important thing.

If one possesses pure Golden Crow bloodline, even a celestial being could typically control the Golden Flame of the Sun.

Now that he has broken through to become a true god, and possesses the same pure Golden Crow bloodline, it is naturally not a problem.

call.

With a thought, Lei Zhan took a step forward and landed directly on the Sun Star.

"Boom~~~"

In an instant, endless solar fire shot into the sky like boiling magma.

Crimson and golden light intertwined, forming a surging sea of ​​fire. The fire waves, carrying earth-shattering power, spread wildly in all directions.

"Splash!"

Instantly, the void trembled and space distorted.

Suddenly, an enormous three-legged golden crow appeared out of nowhere. It stood in the endless sea of ​​fire, its body measuring 100,000 feet in size, like a moving fiery mountain.

Each feather was incredibly beautiful, shimmering with a dazzling golden light. Each one seemed to contain the most masculine and powerful energy.

Endless flames surrounded the three-legged golden crow, like clusters of burning galaxies. With each flap of the golden crow's wings, the sea of ​​fire surged and the golden flames boiled.
