Chapter 22: Chapter 22: The Divine Son's First Seclusion, the Dragon's Son from the Ancestral Dragon's Nest, Long Haotian
Seeing Xiao Chen regain his fighting spirit and confidence, the Azure Dragon Immortal nodded with satisfaction.
Such an unyielding character was truly befitting of the Son of National Destiny.
"By the way, you must diligently cultivate the Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Technique. Also, I have deduced that within the next few years, the secret treasury of the Yuantian Supreme should appear," said the Azure Dragon Immortal.
"Yuantian Supreme... could it be... a supreme powerhouse?" Xiao Chen's eyes widened.
"That's right. Yuantian Supreme is extremely powerful and has a domineering personality. It's rumored that he once stole several ancient dragon bones from the Ancient Royal Clan, the Ancestral Dragon's Nest," the Azure Dragon Immortal explained.
At the mention of ancient dragon bones, the Azure Dragon Immortal's eyes showed a hint of passion.
"Ancient Royal Clan..." Xiao Chen took a deep breath.
That Yuantian Supreme was indeed a domineering figure, daring to provoke even the Ancient Royal Clan.
But Xiao Chen immediately realized the key point and said, "Could it be that Elder wants..."
The Azure Dragon Immortal nodded and said, "That's right. You need to find a Yuantian Supreme token, then find an opportunity to enter the secret treasury and seize those ancient dragon bones."
"With your Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Technique, if you obtain the ancient dragon bones, you will surely be able to cultivate to the peak."
"I too can use an ancient dragon bone to reconstruct my physical body."
Xiao Chen clenched his fists, his eyes brimming with fighting spirit.
"Rest assured, Elder. I will definitely go to Yuantian Supreme's secret treasury and seize the ancient dragon bones!"
"As for Jun Xiaoyao and that bitch Bai Yu'er, just you wait!"
Xiao Chen laughed heartily to the sky, finally seeing a glimmer of hope for revenge.
At the same time, in the Heavenly Emperor Palace of the Jun family.
Achoo!
Jun Xiaoyao rubbed his nose.
"Someone must be cursing me. Is it Xiao Chen?" Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.
According to the usual pattern, by now, he should have obtained some fortuitous encounter.
He's probably thinking about how to take revenge on me in the future.
"Xiao Chen, this time you gave me dragon qi and a fiancée. I wonder what you'll give me next time," Jun Xiaoyao smiled.
He actually hoped that more outstanding talents like Xiao Chen would come.
There are only bad leeks to be cut, no farmers who die from exhaustion.
"Let's put Xiao Chen's matter aside for now. He probably won't amount to much in a few years."
"It's better to prepare for the ten-year-old banquet first. I need to seclude myself for a breakthrough," Jun Xiaoyao murmured.
After all, it would be his first public appearance, showcasing himself to the various powers of the Immortal Realm.
If his performance was lacking, it would be too embarrassing.
When the news of Jun Xiaoyao's seclusion spread.
The entire Jun family was in an uproar.
"Heavens, the Divine Son is actually going into seclusion?"
"I remember, the Divine Son has never gone into seclusion before, right?"
"His cultivation speed was already so fast without seclusion, what will happen now that he's secluding himself?"
"The Divine Son should break through to the True Spirit Realm, right?"
Discussions could be heard from all corners of the Jun family.
They were also very curious about Jun Xiaoyao, who had never gone into seclusion before.
If he emerged after a year of seclusion, how powerful would he become?
Amidst this curiosity and anticipation, a year slowly passed.
During this year, news about the Jun family holding a ten-year-old banquet for Jun Xiaoyao also began to spread throughout the Desolate Heaven Immortal Realm.
Many powers paid close attention to this.
After all, the phenomenon of myriad saints paying homage ten years ago was too terrifying.
Many big figures and old monsters were speculating about what kind of heaven-defying physique the mysterious Divine Son of the Jun family possessed.
"That Divine Son's father is the White-robed Divine King, a taboo existence. I guess that Divine Son's physique won't be far off."
"That's right. White-robed Divine King Jun Wuyue was said to be one of the people most likely to attain godhood and even touch the realm of immortality in recent ancient times. Unfortunately, ten years ago..."
The big figures of many ancient powers communicated through divine sense in the void.
They were also curious about what shocking performance the Jun family's Divine Son, born under his father's halo, would give in his first appearance to the world.
...
Hongzhou was one of the three thousand dao states in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Realm, located within the sphere of influence of the Ancient Royal Clan, the Ancestral Dragon's Nest.
Among the entire three thousand dao states, the vast majority were occupied by various powers.
For example, the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom occupied the entire Fire State.
Hongzhou was just one of the more than fifty dao states controlled by the Ancestral Dragon's Nest.
That's right, just the Ancestral Dragon's Nest branch of the Ancient Royal Clan alone possessed territory in more than fifty dao states.
The Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom only occupied one dao state.
The gap between first-class powers and the Ancient Royal Clan was evident.
However, the Jun family was even more terrifying, occupying over a hundred dao states, twice as many as the Ancestral Dragon's Nest.
The Imperial State was merely the main base of the Jun family.
At this moment, in a large city within Hongzhou.
Many humanoid beings of various appearances came and went.
Some had black horns growing from their heads, some had wings on their backs, some had scales on their foreheads, some had beast-like pupils.
These beings were all ancient races of the Immortal Realm, numerous in variety.
Beings of the Ancient Royal Clan were among them.
In the territories of some human ancient family clans and immortal dynasties, humans were the majority.
While in the territories of the Ancient Royal Clans or some Immortal Realm races and strange beings, the myriad races were the majority.
Of course, normally the myriad races, including humans, could coexist relatively peacefully.
On the streets of the city, many beings' gazes were drawn to a hooded woman in a blue dress.
Although her face was mostly concealed, one could tell she was human, and her figure was slender.
In the territory of the Ancient Royal Clan, it wasn't that there were no humans, just that they were very rare.
The blue-dressed woman slightly raised her head, revealing a charming and pretty face. It was none other than Lan Qingya, who had been expelled from the Jun family.
At this moment, her gaze was fixed on a magnificent golden restaurant at the end of the road.
"It should be there. That great person will be gathering there. I need to leak the news that Jun Xiaoyao possesses the Human Race Saint Physique."
"Jun Xiaoyao, Jun Lingrong, I, Lan Qingya, indeed have no power to take revenge on you, but there are others who can!" A look of deep hatred flashed across Lan Qingya's face.
After being expelled from the Jun family, her situation was extremely miserable.
Accustomed to a life of luxury, she now wandered homeless, enduring hardships.
Lan Qingya would not reflect on her own actions, but would attribute everything to Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Lingrong.
On the top floor of that magnificent golden restaurant.
A group of beings was gathering.
Some had wings on their backs, some were covered in scales, some were as bulky as bears and tigers.
However, this group of beings was now surrounding one person like stars around the moon.
It was a youth dressed in golden attire, his features showing arrogance and unruliness, with two dragon horns growing from his head.
His eyes were like two giant stars, emitting a cold glint.
Beneath his skin, golden dragon scales occasionally appeared and disappeared.
The entire person's aura was very awe-inspiring.
This youth was none other than one of the current generation's outstanding talents of the Ancestral Dragon's Nest, one of the Dragon Sons, Long Haotian.
And his brother was that forbidden first generation of the Ancestral Dragon's Nest, possessing the blood of the Emperor Dragon, Long Aotian!
