If I let you lie low and remain the Dragon King, would you have unified the primordial world?.

Chapter 48 Hongjun Asks for Help, Qilin Seeks the Demon

Although the Phoenix Clan has withdrawn from the battlefield, the Qilin Clan remains a formidable enemy of the Dragon Clan.

Their fighting power should not be underestimated; if they were to fight to the death, they would inevitably inflict heavy casualties on the dragon race.

Victory achieved at the cost of the lives of dragon clan members is an outcome that Azure Dragon Meng Zhang is unwilling to accept.

But Zulong didn't think that way. What he wanted was to destroy the Qilin clan and unify the entire prehistoric world.

As long as the dragon race dominates the prehistoric world, there will be plenty of opportunities for them to grow stronger in the future. A few casualties are perfectly acceptable.

But the First Emperor could not say such things.

Disregarding the lives of one's own people is clearly not something a clan leader should say.

Yinglong, who was standing to the side, saw through Zulong's thoughts and strongly supported the clan leader's actions.

"Azure Dragon, if my dragon race unifies the primordial world, as long as we destroy the Qilin race, all the resources on the eastern land will be ours. That will be the day my dragon race prospers!"

Yinglong spoke, clearly intending to wipe out the Qilin clan in one fell swoop.

Death, where in war is there no death?

"Chieftain, since our dragon race rose to prominence, our goal has always been to strengthen our own clan. But strengthening the clan doesn't necessarily mean dominating the entire prehistoric world! Our dragon race possesses the four seas; isn't that enough?"

Azure Dragon Meng Zhang continued, saying that in his opinion, the Four Seas were already enough for the Dragon Clan to develop, and now withdrawing from the Three Races' struggle for supremacy was more than enough.

The Phoenix Clan has withdrawn, making this the best time for the Dragon Clan to withdraw as well.

Unfortunately, Zu Long wouldn't listen to any of this. He was now focused on dominating the world. Only by unifying the prehistoric world could his cultivation advance further and break through to the level of a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, which is what cultivators later called the Quasi-Saint realm.

Under the suppression of the Heavenly Dao, if the Ancestral Dragon wanted to enter the Primordial Golden Immortal realm, he had to accumulate enough fortune.

Now that the Phoenix Clan has been defeated and their fortune has dissipated, the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan have seen their fortunes greatly increase and have benefited greatly from it.

It was precisely because of this that Zulong more truly understood the opportunity for his breakthrough, which also made him more clear about his goal: to wipe out the Qilin clan as well.

Only by completely annihilating the Qilin clan can the Dragon clan prosper and flourish, and only then can he himself break through to a new realm.

"For the dragon race to truly prosper, sacrifices must be made. As long as the Qilin clan lives, our dragon race will never have peace. This matter need not be discussed further; let us choose a day to send troops to attack the Qilin clan!"

Zu Long said in a deep voice that they had already destroyed the Phoenix Clan, and the next step was to destroy the Qilin Clan so that they could completely unify the prehistoric world.

Zu Long could not give up at this time; his goal had to be achieved.

Upon hearing this, Meng Zhang, the Azure Dragon, sighed, knowing that he could not persuade the Ancestral Dragon.

Now that things have come to this, there is nothing he can do.

The decision of the Ancestral Dragon was immediately disseminated to the entire dragon tribe, and Ao Bai also learned of the news at the first opportunity.

"Alas, if the dragon clan members weren't so exhausted, the Ancestral Dragon would probably have already launched a war!"

Ao Bai shook his head. He was born relatively late, during the later stages of the Three Clans period, so he didn't know how the three clans started fighting in the first place.

However, Ao Feng told them that the three races were favored because they killed a large number of ferocious beasts during the previous Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts, which was a great service to heaven and earth. Their clan fortune increased greatly, and they gradually developed into the overlords of the prehistoric world, rather than dominating the prehistoric world from the beginning.

Later, as the three races further developed, they continuously annexed other races, eventually forming a power struggle.

The conflict between the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan is now irreconcilable. Even if the Dragon Clan wants to withdraw, the Qilin Clan will not let them off easily.

There must be a winner and a loser among the three races.

Just like the Phoenix Clan now, after the clan leader falls, they still have to face reckoning before it's over.

"My son, we cannot decide these important matters, but we can strive to improve our own strength. As long as I am here, I will protect you with all my might; you only need to focus on your cultivation!"

Ao Feng looked at his son. He had placed too much hope in Ao Bai, so he would never let anything happen to him.

Now that Ao Feng has refined the Six Dragons Mountain-Chasing Whip, his combat power has increased significantly, which gives him confidence to protect his son's safety.

"Father, rest assured, I know what to do. Now that we have the great formation protecting us, the future is sure to be bright."

Ao Bai laughed.

When the Phoenix Clan was defeated, the creatures that originally relied on the Phoenix Clan scattered and fled, leaving some scattered creatures in the prehistoric world. Some of them chose to join the Dragon Clan.

Within the Henghe Water Palace, over a million new life forms have been gathered, bringing the total number of life forms in the Henghe Water Palace one step closer to fifty million.

During this period, Ao Bai and his son practiced day and night, leading the aquatic tribe to continuously practice the formation, making the power of the "Hun Tian Si Hai Gui Shui Great Formation" much stronger.

With the help of the "Azure Water Elixir", Ao Bai greatly improved his cultivation level.

If it weren't for the order from the Ancestral Dragon, Ao Bai would have been able to break through to the late stage of the Celestial Immortal Realm very soon if he had just continued cultivating.

The alchemy materials in the Henghe Water Mansion were plentiful, and most importantly, there was only one alchemist, Ao Bai. No one else knew the art of alchemy.

Over the years, the resources collected by Henghe Water Mansion have only been piled up in the treasure vault, but now they've benefited Ao Bai.

The "Azure Water Elixir" he refined was of little help to the old Dragon King, so Ao Bai had no intention of giving it away to others; he used it all himself.

Before the army set off, Ao Bai refined a large number of pills for himself and stored them all in the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl for future use.

Meanwhile, Hongjun had already ventured deep into the Chaos Land and invited his friends to join him in fighting against the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

This time, Hongjun also paid a huge price. The people he invited were all extremely powerful helpers, so it was almost foolproof to deal with the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

With the help of these supreme beings, Dao Ancestor Hongjun was finally able to put his mind at ease.

However, Hongjun was unaware that the Demon Ancestor Rahu was also secretly plotting something.

The First Qilin personally came to the foot of Mount Sumeru to pay homage to the Demon Ancestor Rahu.

"Fellow Daoist Rahu, my Qilin clan is willing to form an alliance with the Demon Clan to jointly fight against the Dragon Clan. After the Dragon Clan is destroyed, and the primordial world is divided between east and west, we will each stand on one side, how about it?"

The First Qilin arrived at Mount Sumeru and got straight to the point.

Although Demon Ancestor Rahu now commands a vast army of demons, he has not directly participated in the struggle for supremacy in the primordial world. Therefore, the First Qilin has no idea how powerful the demons are.

Furthermore, since the demons reside in the western lands, their whereabouts are rarely noticed, and the creatures of the east know even less about them.

Before Demon Ancestor Rahu could speak, the Six Desires Demon King beside him sneered disdainfully:

"Shi Qilin, how dare you address my ancestor as a fellow Daoist? You, a mere Great Luo Golden Immortal, are not qualified!"

The Six Desires Demon King is already at the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and the Demon Ancestor Rahu is far beyond that. He is already close to the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, which is indeed much stronger than the Initial Qilin.
