Gou Refining Essence into Qi in the Dharma-ending Age

Chapter 56 The Power of the True Dragon Clan

Wang Qiudao was very unwilling, but he did not dare to stand up and refute.

He is still too weak.

"Well, even scraps are good enough for me now, and the great opportunity within can't be obtained in just one hour."

Clearly, Tianyun also has the same brain circuit.

"That's why I didn't let anyone call the Sword Sect. Your sect leader is inside; what's left of your belongings?"

"But Master, if the sect hadn't come, the huge wave alone would have been enough to destroy Falling Moon City."

"Sigh, what does that have to do with you? It wasn't you who did it. Mortals are like weeds; the deaths of hundreds of thousands are less than the number of mortals in the Yuan Realm who die in an instant."

These are all human lives lost!

"You've been thoroughly influenced by the Sword Sect. If you continue like this, you'll suffer when you leave the Xuanling Domain." Tianyun said with exasperation.

He doesn't deny that the Sword Sect is truly righteous.

But they are out of place in this world.

It's alright in the Xuanling Domain where the Sword Sect is located, but if you go to other places, acting like this will make you an easy target for being tricked and lured away.

Lin Chao did not respond.

Tianyun understands Lin Chao and knows that Lin Chao respects him and that not responding means he does not agree with his statement.

He felt even more helpless.

Well, he'll just have to keep an eye on things more.

When they leave the Xuanling Domain and step onto a higher stage in the future, they will eventually learn about these things.

……

In the place where many cultivators of the Beast Taming Sect were hiding, everyone's expression was as still as water.

The moment they saw the towering waves being pushed back, they knew that other powerful cultivators had arrived, and that they were not capable of fighting them.

At least as an elder at the eighth level of the Fetal Breathing stage, he couldn't so easily and effortlessly subside the giant wave.

"Elder, who was the cultivator who just made the move?"

"At least at the Qi Gathering Realm," the elder said without hiding anything.

Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect looked even more displeased.

The realm of Qi gathering is beyond their ability to contend with.

"Elder, what should we do next?" a disciple asked.

"The Water Mansion has emerged; this matter cannot be kept secret for long. Let's wait for the sect members to arrive!" The elder felt extremely regretful.

Their group came here not wanting anyone in the sect to know, as they wanted to enjoy the opportunity all to themselves.

Since other powerful individuals have arrived, this idea is no longer possible.

We can only wait for the sect's experts to arrive; otherwise, we won't even have the right to participate.

The Sword Sect members were naturally aware of the existence of the Beast Taming Sect disciples.

They just ignored it.

Although the Beast Taming Sect is not like the Sword Sect, it is not some heretical sect either.

They would naturally not kill innocent people indiscriminately.

If the Yin Soul Sect members were here, they would have killed them the moment they were discovered.

……

The commotion had already awakened everyone in Falling Moon City.

Upon seeing the enormous palace on Falling Moon Lake, both mortals and cultivators were utterly bewildered.

Of course, what impressed me most was the moment the giant wave disappeared.

Mortals only know that it might be the work of a celestial master.

But true cultivators understand exactly what happened.

"That palace, could it be another one like a giant cave dwelling?"

"Most likely, such a massive palace is suspended in the air, almost larger than the entire Falling Moon City."

"Isn't this my chance? If I can enter it and obtain the treasures, I might just rise to power."

"Don't think about it anymore. Didn't you see that giant wave suddenly disappear? It must have been a powerful cultivator who made a move."

"I wonder which sect's cultivator they are..."

Soon the independent cultivators learned which sect it was.

Because the Sword Sect dispatched a large number of cultivators to maintain order within Falling Moon City.

Many independent cultivators suddenly realized, "No wonder the Sword Sect cultivators came to Falling Moon City; they must have discovered the secret long ago."

"As expected, how could these major sects be so kind?"

"Maintaining order is a pretense; controlling Falling Moon City is probably the real goal."

The independent cultivators dared not approach.

They were afraid of being killed by cultivators from major sects.

……

An hour passed in the blink of an eye.

The sect leader opened his eyes and said, "The Water Mansion is larger than I imagined. It is a large lake, much larger than Falling Moon Lake. There is a palace complex beneath the lake, which is very likely the place where the descendants of the True Dragon reside."

"On the lake, there are some islands. Some islands are very barren, while others have good spiritual herbs. If we can harvest them, they would be excellent resources for cultivation."

"It's called a water palace, but it's actually a hidden treasure trove, so its value is quite high," Lu Qing remarked.

"That's right." The sect leader did not deny it, but then his expression became serious. "Also, don't let the opportunity cloud your judgment. There are many demonic beasts living in the Water Mansion. Of course, perhaps due to the limitations of the cave, most of the ones I saw were at the embryonic breathing stage."

"If you get too close, you will be attacked, and these monsters are suspected to be affected by the legacy of the True Dragon, making them very powerful."

"If placed among human cultivators, they would all be prodigies capable of fighting beyond their level."

"Sect Master, how can a demon beast merely influenced by the True Dragon's legacy be so powerful?" This was a question posed by a young disciple of the Sword Sect, who was quite puzzled.

Even those who claim to be descendants of a true dragon cannot be considered to have the orthodox bloodline of a true dragon.

The result was that the monsters became so powerful simply because of the influence of the true dragon's legacy.

The sect leader patiently explained, "True dragons are one of the most terrifying races in the world. They are born water-based beasts, and the entire water-based path is almost entirely controlled by the True Dragon race. They are nearly invincible in the water, and the Water Palace is a body of water, which gives them an advantage."

Hearing this, many disciples present were somewhat bewildered.

The meaning of the words was easy to understand, and we roughly knew what the sect leader wanted to express.

But what about the claim that the True Dragon Clan controls water?

Lin Yuan didn't quite understand this either.

The sect leader noticed this.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Upon returning to the sect, all disciples will need to take a course."

Then, before the disciples could react, he continued, "Most importantly, the water beasts in the Water Palace are protected. They can only be fought, not killed. If they are killed, based on my intuition, something extremely terrifying will happen."

"In short, there are considerable risks inside the Water Mansion. It is not recommended for cultivators below the Qi Gathering Realm to enter. There are some water beasts at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm inside the Water Mansion."

A water beast at the ninth level of the embryonic breathing stage, coupled with the blessing of the watery land, will possess terrifying strength.

Upon hearing the sect leader's words, everyone from the Sword Sect present was startled.

No one doubted the sect leader's intuition.

Doesn't this mean we can only passively take a beating?

"Of course, the sect will not force you to enter. Before you enter, I will give each of you a map, which will mark the approximate locations of the water beasts. You need to avoid them as much as possible."

With the opportunity right in front of him, the sect leader never considered stopping it directly.

However, all necessary reminders and preparations are essential.

Sects train disciples for the purpose of passing on their knowledge, not to use them as resources.

The disciples then began to make their choices.

The sect leader saw Lin Yuan.

"You want to go inside?"

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, Sect Master."

Hearing that the Water Palace might be related to the Yin, he secretly took out the Moon Laurel Frost Flower and tried it out.

It was discovered that this substance did indeed react.

If he weren't there, so be it. But with such an opportunity right in front of him, and the sect protecting him, he had to give it a try.
