Chapter 149 The Soaring Serpent Takes Water
Chapter 149 The Soaring Serpent Takes Water
The land of a thousand rivers was deathly quiet at night.
The person in charge here is Li Xue'er, a direct descendant of the Li family, and there is also a powerful figure named Li Cangxuan.
Since they took over this place, they have been working on it continuously, and finally completed the construction of all the formations needed for the Tengshe to draw water.
Tonight, Li Xue'er and the powerful Li Cangxuan quietly stood in the Land of a Thousand Rivers, waiting.
Before long, a group of people arrived, led by Li Cangwu, accompanied by Li Daoling, Li Hao, and others.
"Fifth Brother, is everything alright with the family?"
Upon meeting, Li Cangxuan hurriedly asked, "The Sword Saint didn't come to visit?"
Li Cangwu's expression stiffened slightly, then he smiled and said, "It's just a small matter, nothing to mention."
"How are the preparations going here?"
"Don't worry, the Tengshe Water-Fetching Project can begin today!"
Li Cangxuan's old face was full of confidence as he said, "However, when Tengshe takes water, will other forces interfere?"
After all, the Wanyuan Mountain Range is shared by various forces in the Northern Frontier. Now, the Li family wants to take full advantage of it. If this matter succeeds, the Wanyuan Mountain Range will gradually decline, with its source energy being lost and its earth energy being depleted, eventually turning into a desolate wasteland.
"Heh, the border is in dire straits, even Dugu Yibai has personally intervened, how can anyone else spare the time?"
Li Cangwu said, "This is a golden opportunity bestowed upon our clan by Heaven!"
A cold glint flashed in his old eyes: "Once Hao'er truly masters the True Dragon Technique, his physique will be able to withstand the gray mist entering his body. Once our clan's path of transformation is opened, no one in the entire Northern Frontier, the entire Immortal Realm, will be able to stop our clan's rise!"
After countless years of planning, the Li family has finally reached the moment to make their final move.
Let Li Hao cultivate the True Dragon Technique, and then, he will undergo mutation!
The Li family has studied fog for countless years and finally came to the conclusion that ordinary people simply cannot resist the invasion of fog.
Only primordial forbidden beings and those among the human race who have successfully cultivated primordial forbidden techniques have this opportunity.
This point was also verified by the phoenix in the Li family's underground palace.
Therefore, Li Hao's mastery of the Ten Thousand Mountains and his achievement of the True Dragon Skill became the cornerstone of the Li family's rise to prominence!
"Hao'er, come on, let's go inside!"
Li Cangwu spoke.
Li Hao stepped into the Land of a Thousand Rivers, his heart surging with emotion, his eyes filled with ambition!
Since the battle in Sin Province, his Dao heart... has been inexplicably affected.
Before that, he had always considered himself a leading figure in the Northern Frontier, and in the world, there were only a handful of people who could rival him. However, the sudden appearance of Tu Tianlong... was truly like a mountain pressing down on him.
I can hardly breathe!
But today, as long as I transform into a true dragon, what does it matter if I slay the Heavenly Dragon?
I will return to my peak!
While they were pondering, they had already stepped into the center of the Thousand Rivers Land, where a towering platform had been built. Once they climbed up, they could overlook the entire Thousand Rivers Land.
Li Hao ascended the platform and looked around. Countless buildings had been erected in all directions of the Thousand Rivers Land, and intricate formations had been set up to guide the rivers to flow, converge, and linger. Countless spiritual fields, medicinal gardens, and blessed lands had been cultivated.
The Li family's dedication to managing this place was such that they practically treated it as their second ancestral home.
If Li Hao achieves the True Dragon Skill here, then this place can be regarded as the place where the Li family will prosper.
Let's begin --
Li Hao spoke calmly!
Li Cangxuan, Li Cangwu, and the others immediately ordered everyone to withdraw from the Thousand Rivers Land.
When the Tengshe (a mythical serpent) draws water, no one, except the soon-to-be-transformed true dragon, is allowed to disturb it within the formation.
"Are these the so-called Abyss Clan?"
Li Cangwu, however, paid close attention and saw groups of prisoners, including Liu Ziwen, Zuo An, and others from the Abyss Realm.
"The land of Qianchuan has been properly cultivated over the years, which has largely relied on the efforts of these slaves. Now that the matter is settled, we can exterminate their entire clan."
Li Xueer smiled slightly.
She had followed Li Daoling into the Abyss Realm years ago, and because of Li Lan, she harbored deep hatred for the beings of the Abyss Realm.
"not busy!"
But Li Cangwu shook his head. Tu Tianlong was a member of the Yuan Clan, and these people were still of great use!
"Lock them all up!"
He gave the order.
"Brother Liu, the Yuan clan is doomed today!"
Within the Yuan Clan, someone sighed, "If we had known this would happen, and fought to the death back then, perhaps one or two of us could have survived and the Yuan Clan could have continued!"
"It's a pity that my Yuan clan is about to be wiped out..."
Many people looked desperate.
"No way!"
But Liu Ziwen gritted his teeth and said firmly, "The Yuan Clan... will absolutely not be destroyed. On the contrary, my Yuan Clan will surely prosper!"
……
The grand formation slowly activated!
Since the Li family took control of the Thousand Rivers region, they have always tried to keep a low profile and have never exposed this place. But today, with the activation of the great formation, a massive amount of spirit stones and immortal resources evaporated, and terrifying energy and power erupted directly from this place, shaking the heavens and the earth and reverberating throughout the entire Tianzhen Prefecture.
"What's going on? The sky is shaking and the earth is trembling. Is some ancient behemoth emerging?"
"What terrifying energy! Someone has set up an unparalleled array!"
"It's heading towards the Land of a Thousand Rivers!"
Within Tianzhen Prefecture, there were also branch forces of various major powers, all of whom were sleepless tonight, having been alarmed. They quickly dispatched messengers to investigate the Thousand Rivers region.
In fact, there was no need for further investigation, because after the earth shook, thousands of rays of light burst forth from the direction of the Thousand Rivers Land, dazzling and colorful, illuminating the entire Tianzhen Prefecture in the darkness as if it were daytime.
"What kind of formation is this?"
"A magnificent formation, who set it up? We have no idea!"
"Quickly, report to the sect!"
News from all sides is flooding in.
at the same time.
Sinful State.
Boom!
The once peaceful and slumbering Wanyuan Mountain Range suddenly seemed to turn over, with tremors running through its body and the earth shaking.
"There's been a mining accident! Run!"
"Is it possible that my diarrhea is about to start?"
"Run! Escape!"
Miners and cultivators from various factions' mines and other locations hurriedly fled.
"What's going on? I feel like the Ten Thousand Yuan Mountain Range is coming to life!"
"The Origin Qi is surging, the Origin Qi is surging throughout the mountains and fields! Who is this Origin Master who can mobilize the Origin Qi of the entire Ten Thousand Yuan Mountain Range? What a grand gesture!"
"This is terrifying! They must be plotting something big!"
Many people gazed into the distance, including many Origin Masters, and sensed the surging earth energy and Origin energy within the Wanyuan Mountain Range.
"The Ten Thousand Yuan Mountain Range is jointly owned by various powerful forces; who would dare to act recklessly?"
"Yes, the source energy here is the key to the formation of the source vein. How can they take us seriously when they are seizing it like this?"
"court death!"
Meanwhile, the experts stationed at the various forces were furious. They sent messages to their sects while searching around, but they couldn't find the person who made the move!
……
Sun and Moon Sect.
"The Ten Thousand Yuan Mountain Range, Tianzhen Prefecture in full swing?"
When a senior elder awoke, he found that the main force of the sect had already headed to the front lines. As the acting head of the sect, he immediately sensed something unusual about the situation.
"Using the land of a thousand rivers as a base, leveraging the remaining dragon energy of the entire Wanyuan Mountain Range to create a true dragon, this is the method of the Tengshe taking water."
In a secluded place, an aged voice came from. The Supreme Elder was instantly shocked. He knew that the one who sent the message was an old immortal saint of the Sun Moon Sect!
The Supreme Elder was greatly alarmed and asked, "Immortal Saint, what should our sect do? Should we stop it?"
"The Tengshe Water-Taking Technique is an ancient and highly secret art, known to very few humans. It is feared that some primordial beings may be secretly plotting against it, and it will be difficult to stop them."
The Supreme Elder's face was grim: "I'm going to the Land of Thousand Rivers immediately!"
At least we need to figure out what exactly happened.
……
It's not just the Sun Moon Sect.
The news spread like wildfire, and the Sword Sect, the Qin Clan, the Zhu Family, the Zhan Clan, and others all arrived.
Among them were many powerful experts leading the teams, but as soon as they got close, a terrifying aura spread, and all parties immediately stopped.
Because this is... the aura of a sacred artifact!
"The Li family!"
"Heavenly Soldier Seal!"
"The Li Clan Heavenly Soldier Seal is one of the most famous sacred artifacts, ranking alongside the Heavenly King Tower. It can conjure countless heavenly soldiers for battle and is one of the Li Clan's greatest assets..."
Everyone looked very solemn, understanding that Li intended to intimidate them!
"The genius of the Li family is in seclusion here. Fellow Daoists, please do not disturb him!"
Li Cangwu's voice carried far and wide.
But one person stepped forward from the crowd. It was none other than the Broken Sword Immortal. He coldly shouted, "The Li family plots to seize the Ten Thousand Mountain Range and uses the method of the Flying Serpent to draw water, harming the Northern Frontier to enrich their own family. I urge the Primordial Beings behind you to show yourselves and speak!"
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but admire the Sword Sect's courage!
The forbidden beings of the primordial era were incredibly powerful. When they learned that such a behemoth might be behind the Li family, many forces were already extremely wary.
But the Sword Sect is really tough!
"What exactly is the Li family's intention? Now that the border is in dire need of attention and the world is in favor of war, the Li family is not sending any experts, but instead pursuing their own interests in the rear. This is probably going too far!"
The Supreme Elder of the Sun Moon Sect also stepped forward directly to refute their claims!
The main issue is that the pro-war faction simply cannot stand idly by.
What is the purpose of this forbidden being of unknown origin who has orchestrated such a massive undertaking? The Li family is a pro-peace faction; what kind of chaos will they cause?
"My two fellow Daoists are overthinking this. Today, the Li family only wants Li Hao to successfully transform into a true dragon. As for anything else, we will not discuss it!"
Li Cangwu spoke calmly, "Anyone who dares to obstruct the Li family is a mortal enemy!"
Their attitude was...incredibly tough.
Because Li Cangwu wasn't afraid. Even a sword saint like Dugu Yibai had gone to the border, leaving very few capable experts behind. Moreover, there was that expert from the Phoenix Clan... Although her whereabouts were currently unknown, she would definitely appear when the time came!
While everyone was facing off, a massive amount of Origin Qi surged in through a small Immortal Origin Vein that was already present in the Thousand Rivers Land. The Tengshe Water-Taking Array circulated throughout the sky, and specks of golden light in the vast Origin Qi condensed towards the high platform!
That was the remaining dragon energy of the true dragon clan within the source vein of the Wanyuan Mountain Range.
It is also the most important resource for Li Hao to transform into a true dragon!
Li Hao was fully introduced into the body.
His immortal power circulated wildly, refining the dragon energy. He felt that the True Dragon Technique, which had been stagnant, was making progress!
Moreover, there were clearly specks of golden substance in his blood, which meant that his bloodline was also changing.
"Tu Tianlong... The day I transform into a true dragon will be the day you perish!"
He opened his mouth and swallowed the dragon's energy, then said coldly!
But as soon as he finished speaking, a leisurely voice rang out behind him: "It is truly a fortunate thing for me to have you remember me so fondly."
Upon hearing this, Li Hao was immediately shocked, turned around, and looked back with disbelief in his eyes.
