Chapter 112: Continuous Breakthroughs, Yinglong Temple
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Dragon of the Desert was completely golden and shimmering. It was a hundred meters long and had two wings on its back. It was lifelike, like the avatar of a dragon.
Moreover, it was very powerful.
It brought pressure.
“Guardian of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven.”
Qi Ming’s gaze sized up the Dragon of the Desert in front of him and revealed his true identity, “Or rather, I should call you the guardian spirit of the Yinglong Temple.”
“You…” The Dragon of the Desert was stunned, “How do you know this? This is a secret! Who are you?”
In fact, the Yinglong Grotto-heaven was basically no secret to Qi Ming. This was because under the circumstances of tracing back history and looking at the future, he basically knew everything.
The Dragon of the Desert in front of him was the guardian of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven that was nurtured by the Ancient Demon Emperor after paying a considerable price.
At the same time, it was also guarding the Yinglong Temple.
“Move side.” Qi Ming said.
“Human.” The Dragon of the Desert calmed down, “No matter who you are or where you know this, this is not a place you can step foot in.”
“Please leave immediately.”
Boom!
“Get lost!” The next moment, Qi Ming shouted as the Golden Core Great Dao Scripture circulated. The Connate Purity Great Dao Golden Core in his dantian released vast Dao might and surged with Dharmic powers.
Around Qi Ming, Great Dao True Marks spread. They were invisible and intangible, but they contained the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, directly suppressing the power of the dragon.
“You… you…”
The Dragon of the Desert was shocked and felt fear.
It was the spirit of the grotto-heaven nurtured by the Yinglong Grotto-heaven. It was able to control the power of the grotto-heaven, and it possessed an extremely formidable strength in this place.
The grotto-heaven was an incomplete world to begin with. Therefore, the spirit of the grotto-heaven was formed from the Dao of an incomplete world.
Meanwhile, Qi Ming comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and was engraved with the Great Dao True Marks, while the grotto-heaven spirit was only the manifestation of an incomplete world.
The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth that Qi Ming grasped could suppress the power of the Dragon of the Desert simply due to the difference in status.
Boom!
Qi Ming raised his hand and his Dharmic powers gathered, turning into an incomparably huge hand seal. Then, he slapped it directly on the Dragon of the Desert.
There was a loud sound.
The Dragon of the Desert directly exploded.
It turned into sand that filled the sky and disappeared.
Of course, the grotto-heaven spirit could not die so easily. It was a manifestation of Dao, but the body it condensed had been scattered by Qi Ming.
However, the desert dragon did not appear again because it knew that it was not Qi Ming’s match.
If they continued to fight, it might be destroyed by the other party’s Dao.
Swish!
Qi Ming’s figure tore through the air and headed towards the extreme east.
Not long after, the Dragon of the Desert appeared again.
However, it was very small and was hidden in the yellow sand.
“This is the fusion of the body and the Dao.”
The Dragon of the Desert looked in the direction Qi Ming had left. The shock and fear in its eyes could not be calmed, “When did such a terrifying junior appear in the human race? He’s clearly only at the late-stage Core Formation realm, but he’s already able to fuse his body and Dao. Although it’s very shallow, this is something that only the Dao Integration realm can do.”
It was too powerful.
“He’s heading towards the Yinglong Temple. I can’t let him succeed. I have to stop him. In the current situation, I can only spread the news.”
The guardian of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven made a huge decision.
It wanted to spread the news of the Yinglong Temple in the entire Yinglong Grotto-heaven. Not only did it want to attract the demons of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven, but he also wanted to attract all the legacy descendants of the various factions who had entered.
It wanted them to fight each other and restrain Qi Ming.
Because of the restriction of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven, only cultivators below the Leaving Aperture realm could enter through the gap’, but demons did not have this limit.
However, the Demon Court and the Four Seas Dragon Palace did not know about this.
Moreover…
If they dared to send experts of the older generation over, they would definitely be targeted by the seniors of the various powers, and it would cause a huge battle.
The various factions could only send legacy descendants.
This was the tacit agreement.
For the time being, no one dared to easily break it.
Among the veteran legacy disciples of the twelve peaks of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, including Tang Binshun, after they entered the Yinglong Grotto-heaven, they did not search for opportunities and investigate the situation of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven immediately.
They had found a safe and quiet place and set up the corresponding protective array formation. They quickly entered seclusion to break through.
They had been preparing for the legacy competition for a long time. They had suppressed their Nascent Soul realm cultivation and not broken through. It was for this moment that they were completely prepared for this breakthrough.
Everything happened smoothly.
Half a day had passed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
One after another, incomparably powerful auras soared into the sky one after another. The Dao Nascent Soul left the aperture and broke through to the next realm. Their Dharmic powers rose drastically, and their strength increased greatly.
Tang Binshun, Qiu Lichun, Dong Yuan, Qiu Wenshi…
There were more than a thousand legacy disciples of the twelve peaks of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.
Among the senior legacy disciples, a total of 28 people had broken through.
Their cultivation level had reached the early-stage Leaving Aperture realm.
Their strength soared.
In addition, after the legacy descendants of the various large factions learned of the situation on the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s side, they naturally felt threatened. Therefore, they no longer suppressed their cultivation and attempted to break through one after another.
This way…
Many legacy disciples at the early-stage Leaving Aperture realm appeared in the various factions.
Under the lead of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven’s guardian, news regarding the Yinglong Temple quietly spread and gradually leaked.
The legacy descendants of the various factions quickly headed for the extreme east.
In the blink of an eye, a few hours later, Qi Ming had already found the Yinglong Temple in the depths of the extreme east. He stood high in the desert and looked down.
This was an oasis in the desert.
In this oasis, there were also many living beings.
The Yinglong Temple was deep beneath this oasis.
“Shaking Mountains and Earth.”
Boom!
Qi Ming attacked. With a wave of his hands, vast Golden Core Dharmic powers surged out and transformed into the mystic technique of the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Techniques, Shaking Mountains and Earth.
This technique could control the ground and cause violent earthquakes. It could cause the ground to tremble and shook the mountains and rivers. It had all kinds of power.
After Qi Ming used it, the oasis beneath his feet began to tremble violently and constantly cracked. Huge cracks appeared, and the demon beasts living in the oasis were alarmed.
Roar! Roar!
Demon beasts in the oasis rushed into the sky and roared angrily. They surrounded Qi Ming and attacked from all directions.
Qi Ming’s actions were destroying their homeland.
“Destroy.”
Buzz!
Qi Ming pointed with his left hand, and the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Embryo appeared. It tore through the air and blossomed. Countless sword qi and sword threads that were as thick as hairs flew in all directions.
Pu! Pu! Pu!
In an instant, all the demon beasts that attacked were torn into pieces by these strands of sword qi, and blood sprayed like gorgeous blood-colored fireworks that blossomed in the sky.
They were all killed.
These demon beasts could not reach a hundred meters away from Qi Ming.
The oasis beneath his feet had already completely cracked open, and an incomparably huge crack appeared. Looking down, it was pitch-black as if there was no end to it.
Countless yellow sand formed a waterfall that poured into the crack below.
Gradually…
The shaking stopped as Qi Ming retracted his mystic technique.
It calmed down.
This oasis was basically destroyed by Qi Ming. The yellow sand that poured into the crack slowly returned to normal, and the commotion was much more stable.
“This fellow…”
In the distance, the Dragon of the Desert stared at Qi Ming as anger appeared on its face, “He actually found the Yinglong Temple so quickly. Moreover, this oasis was destroyed without any hesitation.”
“It’s indeed here.”
Qi Ming nodded in satisfaction. A satisfied smile appeared on his face. His body turned into a golden light and entered the deepest part of the huge crack below.
In the blink of an eye, Qi Ming arrived at the bottom.
Here, there was another cave.
It was a huge and independent underground space.
It was pitch-black.
On the ground were corpses. Some were as big as mountains and had not been weathered until now. Some corpses turned to ash with a breeze.
Of course, apart from the corpses of these demon beasts that were as huge as mountains, Qi Ming also saw many human corpses and bones lying on the surrounding ground.
Qi Ming clasped his hands behind his back and looked at his surroundings. The world-shaking battle of the ancient era seemed to appear in his mind.
He continued forward.
In fron, Qi Ming stood in front of a grand and magnificent hall. This hall was incomplete. Clearly, it was affected by the aftershock of the battle and had already been destroyed quite a bit.
Even if this hall was already incomplete, Qi Ming could still sigh at the grandeur and magnificence of this hall after looking at it, as well as the observable traces of time.
“Yinglong Temple.”
Qi Ming looked at the plaque that had already cracked into two, “Found it.”
In the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, the elders of the twelve floating palaces, the Grand Elders, the Sect Master, and the others all noticed Qi Ming.
“What did Qi Ming discover?”
“Yinglong Temple? A ruin from the ancient era?”
“Impressive.”
“Qi Ming actually discovered such a palace of ruins.”
“In that case, is this ancient grotto-heaven a grotto-heaven established by the Ancient Demon Race?”
“…”
The elders discussed.
Buzz!
Suddenly, Qi Ming’s video turned dark.
Qi Ming had severed the connection of the legacy token and no longer transmitted the scene here. The elders were also stunned, and they were very curious about the situation of the Yinglong Temple.
“It’s time to explore this Yinglong Temple.”
Qi Ming slowly walked into the Yinglong Temple. After he entered, the environment inside was dilapidated and ancient. It was filled with the vicissitudes of time and had the aura of the ancient era.
The moment he stepped into the Yinglong Temple.
Buzz! Buzz!
Before he could react, the array formation had already been activated.
Moreover…
It was still an ancient killing formation.
This was the Yinglong Temple, the palace of an Ancient Demon Emperor. Even if time passed and the demon emperor ceased to exist, the incomplete palace still contained the power of the ancient era.
Moreover…
Qi Ming was a human and not a demon.
By rashly stepping into this Yinglong Temple, he had offended the Ancient Demon Emperor.. Naturally, he had triggered the remaining ancient power in the Yinglong Temple and formed a killing array that trapped Qi Ming and wanted to kill him.
