The True Lord has arrived

Chapter 345 The Bell Rings!

Kaiming noticed the blazing fire within the Ancient Dragon Turtle's body. That special, pure aura, as clear as dawn and as violent as heavenly fire, was very familiar to Kaiming, or rather, too familiar. In an instant, Kaiming unleashed his magic power.

From the barely maintained true form, it transformed back into a human and then lay down backward.

boom! ! !
Golden flames exploded.

Kaiming was skilled in observation and was the leader of the three gods of Kunlun. His divine eye was the best in the world. Therefore, at this moment, Kaiming felt as if a sun had been thrown into his eyes.

Kaiming screamed in agony: "Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!"

Zhou Yan had been accumulating the Great Sun Fire and needed time to prepare, but the dragon vein power that Yuan Tiangang had temporarily suppressed was not originally capable of such great power.

However, Yuan Tiangang left behind the Dragon-Suppressing Stone, which was like building a reservoir to block the power of the dragon vein for so long. Now, Yuan Yufeng broke the seal with the power of his family, and the power of the dragon vein surged out.

The Imperial Seal absorbed this dragon vein power, activating the Bronze Divine Wood. With this power, the Great Sun Golden Crow danced in the flames and was reborn in the fire of humanity. After being mixed with the power of the human dragon vein, a wisp of golden flame was added to the Great Sun True Fire.

Zhou Yan didn't hesitate and went straight in from the inside.

Mobilizing the power of the five elements, it unleashed a fierce attack on the Primordial Dragon Turtle!
The Primordial Dragon Turtle was the younger brother of the colossal beast that supported the heavens. Its blood and energy were vast and ferocious. However, no matter how vast and ferocious its blood and energy were, it could not control the rising sun within its body. The Dragon Turtle let out a series of mournful roars.

The boundless and powerful vital energy withered within his body, and his flesh and blood turned into weeds. His extremely sorrowful roar transformed into turbulent ripples. Even Fuxi, who was outside this world and stood above the ancient gods of the outside world, was somewhat astonished.

"...The ancient dragon turtle's aura has dropped significantly."

"This kid...did he really do it?"

A hint of surprise appeared in Fuxi's eyes.

After Gonggong shamelessly started flipping the table, Fuxi's heart sank a little, but now that the ferocious aura of the Primordial Dragon Turtle had greatly diminished, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Kaiming's eyes were filled with nothing but white light. Later, he was finally able to see faint, blurry light and shadow again. He struggled to open his eyes and saw that the neck of the Primordial Dragon Turtle had been pierced by a beam of light.

Given the immense size and powerful energy of the Primordial Dragon Turtle, its blood would gush forth like a tidal wave.

However, this surge of blood and qi was instantly vaporized and turned into blood mist.

An aura exploded out, and Zhou Yan emerged into the air, with a golden three-legged crow perched on his shoulder. This three-legged crow had just unleashed a powerful burst of energy, burning the internal organs of the Primordial Dragon Turtle to ashes.

Zhou Yan's own depleted essence, energy, and spirit were largely restored by the blood and qi he had just absorbed. After appearing, he did not hesitate and used the [Dou Shuai Palace] for the second time, gathering all his strength in his right palm and striking the forehead of the Primordial Dragon Turtle hard.

boom! ! !
The enormous ancient dragon turtle finally couldn't hold on any longer and knelt on the ground. The explosive aura rippled outwards, layer upon layer, emitting a series of mournful roars. The roars were somewhat similar to the mooing of a cow, but lower and longer.

Its enormous eyes rolled, glowing with a crimson hue, staring at Zhou Yan there, hissing with resentment.

Even though its flesh and blood were pierced by the Great Sun True Fire, its blood vessels were scorched black, and its internal organs were reduced to almost dust by Zhou Yan's fully charged attack, this Primordial Dragon Turtle was still not dead.

Is it that something so enormous, a fatal flaw for humanity, is something that even gods and demons of this level cannot instantly kill?!

Everything perceives time differently.

The mayfly, which lives only a day, cannot comprehend the sorrow of humans in autumn, and humans, in turn, find it difficult to truly perceive that death is not an action, but a continuous state.

For creatures with abundant vital energy and vitality, this process can be very long. A human can endure it for a day, but this enormous dragon turtle can probably endure it for even longer.

Zhou Yan has identified the Primordial Dragon Turtle.

Without hesitation, he raised his right hand.

"Crow, breathe fire!"

The three-legged golden crow roared twice in a fit of rage—it had just come back to life. After being shot down by Yi, it was in the process of dying, just like the ancient dragon turtle now. It was only by the bronze divine tree and the ancient dragon turtle's vast blood and energy that it came back to life.

In human terms, after lying in the ICU for more than half a year, he was finally pulled out and immediately dragged out by his unscrupulous father to do 007-style mortar work on the construction site.

But it still obediently spat out a ball of golden flame.

With the help of the Great Sun True Fire, one of the three great true fires in the world, Zhou Yan activated the circulation of the five elements, causing his self-created divine power to change from being primarily for sealing to being primarily for killing, greatly increasing its destructive power.

Kaiming saw that a sun had appeared in the night!
Zhou Yan stretched out his right palm, raised it, and the flames transformed into a huge sphere, slowly rotating, spreading out an incomparably intense light.

While you are sick, I will kill you.

As Zhou Yan gathered his strength, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his left arm. Yu Wang's chains began to vibrate violently, and a burst of azure light erupted from Zhou Yan's left arm. Zhou Yan's eyes sharpened.

Gonggong—!!!
Zhou Yan flicked his hand, and the Great Sun Wheel spun down, slamming hard onto the head of the giant dragon turtle. Golden flames transformed into a blazing and violent power that dissipated, while a layer of azure-gold radiance exploded and spread out from the body of the giant ancient dragon turtle.

Kaiming saw that the power representing the rotation of the great sun could only hold out for a few breaths against the golden water god's power before it began to give way. Even Kaiming's face turned pale and he was somewhat desperate.

Gonggong—

This place was of great importance to Gonggong.

At this moment, the Primordial Dragon Turtle has become a chess piece on the battlefield. Gonggong has poured his power into this Primordial Dragon Turtle, truly and conceptually the original power of the Water God's Chosen into the Primordial Dragon Turtle's body, forming its internal organs.

The ancient dragon turtle raised its head and roared, its breath gathering and transforming into layers of waves and ripples, creating a vast expanse of water and clouds, like the Yunmeng Marsh.

Ripples exploded in the void, and the human destiny gathered, transforming into a giant palm. The palm swept fiercely across the side, and Fuxi's figure flashed by. He glanced at Zhou Yan, saying nothing, only when intercepting the second world.

It forcefully forced the divine consciousness of the water god Gonggong into the seal.

Zhou Yan heard ripples in the void, heard Fuxi's muffled groan, and sensed that familiar aura beginning to fluctuate violently. This time, Fuxi did not let Zhou Yan fight to the death. The power representing the ultimate feng shui position transformed into the [Life Position] on one side.

It pierced through the intersection of these three worlds, pointing towards the true human realm.

Fuxi's voice was simple and direct: "—"

"run!!!"

Zhou Yan watched as the Primordial Dragon Turtle began to struggle again after the Water God infused it with divine power. At this moment, as long as the Water God's divine power dissipated, the Primordial Dragon Turtle would surely die. The path to survival was on the left, which was personally opened up by Fuxi.

Given Fuxi's personality, the fact that he directly told Zhou Yan to run away means that the situation here has reached a point where even Fuxi himself is not confident enough to protect Zhou Yan's life after layers of entanglement and collision.

Zhou Yan looked at the [Life Position].

He stared at it for a moment, then looked away.

He looked at the Primordial Dragon Turtle, which represented the power of the Water God's Chosen One and had been unleashed with its last strength and vitality by Gonggong. He grinned and pulled out the Earth Soul Sky-Shattering Sword. He raised his hand and threw the Three-Legged Golden Crow into the sky. Then he descended and swung his sword to slash at the Dragon Turtle.

A resounding clang exploded as the ancient dragon turtle aimed its shell at Zhou Yan.

This tortoise shell is the strongest defensive shell in the world.

Zhou Yan's Earthly Soul Heaven Collapse exploded with a layer of starlight, the Primordial Dragon Turtle raised its head, and once again unleashed its great divine power—[Devouring Heaven and Earth]!
Zhou Yan raised his hand, gathering the flames of the great sun, and then slammed it out fiercely.

"I'll let you eat it!"

The blazing Great Sun True Fire transformed into a swirling vortex. Having learned its lesson, the Primordial Dragon Turtle immediately stopped devouring. Zhou Yan slammed down, unleashing ten times the power of a giant spirit, slamming into the dragon turtle's body. His gaze fell upon the bell over there, sensing the Three-Legged Golden Crow's feelings and resonance with it.

"Go and ring the bell!"

As the primordial energy dissipated, Zhou Yan activated his Dharma Body without hesitation. Using the [Eight-Armed Seven-Headed Buddha Dharma Body] as a foundation, he covered it with the second layer of the War God's True Essence, transforming it into the War God's body. He then wielded the transformed Earth Soul Heaven Collapse and slashed down fiercely.

Intercept the ancient dragon turtle.

The three-legged golden crow circled around, and upon seeing Zhou Yan, it immediately launched an attack to intercept him. Without further hesitation, the three-legged golden crow flew towards the huge golden bell, transforming into a rainbow of light that swept across the entire long night.

Zhou Yan intercepted Gonggong's chosen one, the Primordial Dragon Turtle.

At the Jialing River ferry crossing in Langzhong, the descendant of the dragon turtle looked at the ancient dragon turtle ancestor shrouded in the golden power of Gonggong and exclaimed in a frenzy, "Do you see it?! Ao Xuantao, do you see it?! That is the power of our ancestor, the great power of the revered god."

"Look at your beloved husband, how pathetic he is now!"

"He will die in an extremely humble manner under the divine power of Gonggong. Do you see his current disadvantage? Under such danger, you still want to follow him? Don't be ridiculous! Have you forgotten the past of the dragon race, forgotten the glory of the dragon race?!"

"Quickly return and help me, help our ancestors, help the great source of all waters, the supreme god Gonggong, to capture that Taoist!"

The dragon turtle took out an object, and a streak of water light flashed through the void—not as an attack, but as a pull. An ancient and vast aura instantly enveloped Ao Xuantao—

Ao Xuantao's vision blurred, and what he saw was no longer the river, but an endless void and stars that seemed to be burning.

A majestic dragon, surrounded by supreme authority to control all waters, is fighting alongside a colossal god who stands tall between heaven and earth. The dragon's roar resounds throughout the universe; it is the primal glory that the dragon race has long lost, etched deep in its bloodline!

These fragments of memory flashed by, yet they made Ao Xuantao's dragon blood boil, almost causing him to roar to the sky. A tremendous temptation to return to his origins overwhelmed his mind. At the same time, Zhou Yan was fighting a fierce battle against the dragon-turtle body that had been blessed by Gonggong.

A tremendous, trembling sound swept across the entire sky.

At this moment, Li Zhenyue, Shen Cangming, and the Lion Cat were all locked in a fierce battle. Judging from the conclusions and the apparent battle results, their side was at the final and greatest disadvantage. The giant dragon turtle said:

"You should know how to make a decision!"

"Join us and reclaim the glory of the dragon race, or, along with your comrades, turn to dust in the ancient era, letting the pride of the dragon race vanish without a trace."

Life and death, glory, the pride and history of the race—if this body were to perish, then the last hope of the dragon race would be lost, and it would vanish into the waves of the Jialing River.

Ao Xuantao's claws were in the water as he watched Zhou Yan, who was now at a disadvantage.

Suddenly, he remembered their first meeting. Back then, he was just a snake. His friend, who was being controlled by the Master of the Azure Netherworld, came to him for help, which led to his connection with the young man. In the end, his friend 'Black Wind's' soul broke free from the Master of the Azure Netherworld's control and saved him once again.

Ao Xuantao closed his dragon eyes, then opened them again. A massive surge of water elemental power converged, rushing towards the dragon turtle and firmly controlling it, leaving the turtle both shocked and enraged. Amidst the dragon's roar, Ao Xuantao made his choice and his answer:
"I reject."

"If what you say is true—then my ancestors betrayed Gonggong and chose to ally with the human race. As you say, this was a despicable act, then—"

"If I were to abandon my beloved now, wouldn't I be no different from my dragon ancestors?"

The dragon turtle resisted Ao Xuantao's killing intent with water element, but unexpectedly, this dragon actually used his own reason to refute him. In a moment of shock and anger, Ao Xuantao pounced and attacked, his dragon claws gripping the dragon turtle's body tightly, his fangs bared, biting the dragon turtle's neck hard.

"Besides!"

"If such glory could be so easily regained, how could the Dragon Clan be in its current state?! My lord considers me a friend, not a servant as you claim!"

The dragon turtle sensed Ao Xuantao's resolute determination and madness, even his resolve to die alongside him here, and exclaimed in shock and anger, "Are you going to lead the entire dragon race to its doom?!"

"So what?!"

Ao Xuantao said sternly, "Even if my ancestors were here, they would surely make me follow my path!"

Even if it's the end of the road, it's better than being someone else's henchman!

"Besides, I was originally just an exiled man from the mountains..."

At this moment, Ao Xuantao seemed to see Black Wind, his friend, the once free and unruly wolf. A resolute madness flashed in the eyes of this descendant of the dragon race, as well as the dragon race's arrogance that he himself was unaware of.

"Since we are from the mountains and fields, then naturally—"

"Compassionate and righteous, yet lawless!"

The dragon's roar shook the heavens and earth!
The three-legged golden crow flew over Langzhong, over Shen Cangming who was fighting to the death, over Yuan Yufeng who was holding Old Liu, over Pei Xuanniao and Li Zhenyue who had been fighting outside, and finally crashed hard into the huge ancient bell!
In an instant, countless eyes fell upon this place. Divine runes flowed, and the bell trembled, but in the end... it failed to ring out!
Even Fuxi looked rather unattractive.

Ten suns appeared in the sky, but only one golden crow appeared, and it was barely alive. Was its power insufficient?!

At this critical moment, Zhou Yan exhaled, and the Primordial Dragon Turtle bit down hard on him. Zhou Yan's Dharma Form, holding the Earth Soul Heaven-Shattering Technique, pierced fiercely into the Primordial Dragon Turtle's throat.

At the same time, he turned around with his left hand and grabbed the stick behind his back.

Humanity and fortune converge, grip that stick tightly, and toss it away!

The enormous bell-shaped pestle flew out, stirring up the dragon vein power activated by Yuan Yufeng. It flew over the ancient city of Langzhong, carrying the hopes of countless people, and crashed heavily into the enormous golden bell after the three-legged golden crow!
The patterns, which had already been pushed to their limits, suddenly condensed.

when----

A clear and bright sound spread out.

Visible ripples swept across the entire city of Langzhong. Zhou Yan gasped for breath, watching the golden bell being struck. As Gonggong's agent and the chosen one, the ancient dragon turtle was almost driven mad at this moment.

He bit down hard!
Zhou Yan's Dharma Image's right arm was bitten to pieces, and the Earth Soul Heaven Collapse suddenly grew larger to support it.

The ancient dragon turtle also gave it its all.

Zhou Yan felt that he was in increasing danger step by step, but the ancient dragon turtle Gonggong clan felt the same way. They felt that Langzhong was almost a turbulent vortex, forcing them to gamble everything.

He used all his anger and killing intent, employing the power of Gonggong.

The Earth Spirit and Heavenly Collapse shielded Zhou Yan from being bitten to pieces.

But the next moment, a crack appeared on Yu the Great's weapon.

As the earth and sky seemed to tilt upwards, the runes that bore the power of King Yu's flood control efforts gradually extinguished, and a crack pierced through the divine weapon. It was as if the curtain of an era had fallen, placing the heavy burden of protecting humanity upon the present.

Earth's Soul Collapses and Heaven's Collapses—

Shattered!
