Dragon Blooded War God

“Fat Cat, what kind of demonic beast is that? It’s gigantic! And terrifying!” Long Chen hurriedly asked Little Cat, who was in the Primordial Realm.

He retreated away from the Jiao along with Bai Lan and the others.

“What’s there to be afraid of? It’s merely a Category Nine Emperor-tier Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon. It’s not even part of the demon race. In my prime, I could kill countless Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragons with just one breath,” said the fuzzy Dream Demon in the Primordial Realm as it opened its eyes lazily.

“Category Nine Emperor-tier?”

Long Chen drew a sharp breath.

That was too powerful. That was equivalent to a Ninth Heavenly Martial Stage cultivator.

Long Chen had only recently advanced from the First Earthly Martial Stage, and he knew just how big the gap was between the First and Ninth Earthly Martial Stage. It was like heaven and earth. Using the same concept, the gap between Bai Lan and this Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon was like heaven and earth too. If the Jiao Dragon decided to attack, it could kill them all with just an effortless swing of its claw.

Long Chen had previously thought that the Jiao Dragon was only at Category Three Emperor-tier at most.

He had not expected it to be Category Nine Emperor-tier.

“Little Cat, you’re not lying, are you? Is it really Category Nine Emperor-tier?” asked Long Chen while retreating further. He knew that backing off was useless. Even Blood Warp would be useless. But everyone was running, so how could he not run too?

“Why would I lie? It’s not your first time meeting it anyway; what’s there to be afraid of? This Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon is a demonic beast from the Desolate Royal Territory, and it is a Demon Emperor. Since it could come all the way here, it is not surprising that it is Category Nine Emperor-tier,” slurred Little Cat as he stretched lazily.

Xiaolang, who was next to him, had the urge to slap Little Cat.

If Little Cat were outside the Primordial Realm, he would have peed himself from terror. As long as he stayed in the Primordial Realm, he could brag easily as he was not in mortal danger.

“I’ve seen it before?” Long Chen thought for a moment, then he recalled the time Little Cat entered Confounding City alone at night. Through the connection of the Primordial Dragon Talisman, Long Chen had spotted purple scales on one of the men’s hands. After he made the connection, Long Chen guessed that this Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon was one of the six demons.

With that thought, Long Chen calmed down because he knew that the Jiao Dragon would not hurt them if that was the case. Instead, it would even tell Bai Lan and the others how to get to the Five Emperors’ treasure!

Just as Long Chen expected, the Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon quickly transformed from its immense size into a ray of purple light. Then the light slowly materialized into a handsome man wearing purple brocade clothing. The man looked exactly like a human, and he did not have any purple scales on his hands. However, Long Chen knew that this was only one of his transformations. Under normal circumstances, his hands would surely be covered in scales.

“Don’t run! I bear no ill intentions …” As Long Chen expected, the man in purple smiled warmly and spoke in a mild tone.

When they heard his voice, the people who were running in a panic halted as if they were under a mysterious spell. Even Bai Lan and the others stopped. The three of them looked at each other, then suspiciously at the man in purple. Bai Lan whispered, “I don’t know this beast. We will observe first. If something goes wrong, we’ll run in separate directions!”

“Yeah … No ancestors ever told us that such a terrifying beast lives in Tianyi Lake. And I don’t think this gigantic Jiao Dragon was recorded in the Book of Demonic Beasts.” Lei Ji’s voice was filled with discomfort and terror.

He postulated that if this Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon was angered and started to kill, very few of them would escape unharmed.

“Don’t worry. I don’t think he intends to kill anyone, or he would not have taken human form.” Long Chen knew the truth but was not sure if he should tell them, so he could only soothe them for the moment.

Long Chen’s words made sense.

Lei Ji and Bai Lan gave a small sigh of relief and remained quietly in the crowd, observing the situation.

The situation with the Five Elements Alliance and the Divine Wind Faction was similar. Faced with such a powerful beast, even Wu Lian stood quietly.

No one dared to move. All eyes were on the Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon floating in the sky above Tianyi Lake. They did not dare to make a sound and only stared obediently.

The man in purple was very pleased with the silence. He nodded with a smile, then his sonorous voice boomed in all directions.

“My name is Zi Xue. I used to be the Black Emperor’s mount. I have lived for more than ten thousand years. During ancient times, when the Five Emperors led the masters of the Ten Thousand Nations Territory to fight against the enemy, there was endless death, and in the end, I was the only one who survived. However, I don’t think any stories of me were ever passed down. Too many people died that year …”

As he spoke, Zi Xue looked sorrowful.

The others were truly relieved to hear him say that.

“Indeed, there are no mentions of a beast named Zi Xue in the legends …”

“Yeah. And the legends didn’t mention a mount.”

“This Jiao Dragon has lived for more than ten thousand years? Doesn’t that mean that it’s also very powerful among Emperor-tier beasts…”

The crowd discussed in whispers, not daring to speak too much.

Long Chen laughed to himself. The Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon was shameless for pretending to be the Black Emperor’s mount. They had only come here for one thing, which was the Five Emperors’ treasure; therefore, everything they did could be tied back to the Five Emperors.

Long Chen glanced at Bai Lan and Lei Ji. Based on their facial expressions, they seemed to believe it. The Ten Thousand Nations Territory didn't have much information about the Battle of the Five Emperors, and it was not even clear who their enemy was. However, Long Chen knew that the enemy of the Ten Thousand Nations Territory was actually a portion of the demonic beasts from the Desolate Royal Territory.

To the Ten Thousand Nations Territory, thr war was a huge massacre, but to the Desolate Royal Territory, it was just a minor incident.

The Five Emperors’ enemies were the demonic beasts, and this Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon was beyond powerful, so how could it have been the Black Emperor’s mount?

This Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon was as strong as the Seven Lords too.

Long Chen had only reached his current level because of the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance.

After the regular cultivators heard the Jiao dragon’s self-introduction, they quickly believed him. After the first person fell to his knees, everyone followed suit.

There were also those who did not believe it, but everyone else was kneeling. What if that beast killed them because they did not kneel?

Therefore, everyone knelt.

The only ones who did not kneel were the people of the nine main clans. Without the permission of their clan leaders, they did not dare move. But if the clan leaders did it, they would surely kneel without hesitation.

“There is no need to kneel before me,” said the man in purple with a smile. His gaze turned towards Long Chen’s direction as he said, “I have remained alive just so that the descendants of the Five Emperors could search for the treasures their ancestors left them. Now that the five Emperor Keys have been found, I appeared today to inform those who have retrieved the Emperor Keys this: exactly five months from today, take your Emperor Keys to the center of the ruined city in the Eternal Battlefield. A five-colored altar will appear there. That is the entrance of the Five Emperors’ Secret Realm …”

This information sent a wave of shock through the crowd.

The people who had the Emperor Keys looked at each other and believed the man even more. The location they had suspected the most was indeed the Eternal Battlefield, as it was the center of the Ancient Graveyard.

Finally, the man in purple added, “You are all descendants of the Five Emperors. I hope that after you all obtain the treasures they left behind, you will strengthen the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. If anyone uses the Five Emperors’ treasures for malicious acts, one day, I, Zi Xue, will appear and take away your treasures …”

When he finished, the man in purple dove into Tianyi Lake and disappeared.

He left so quickly … Long Chen squinted. Using his Soul Swallowing Gaze, he saw that the man had not gone to the bottom of the lake. Instead, he had moved at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye towards another direction. This meant that he was not the Black Emperor’s mount, but someone from the Desolate Royal Territory who was eyeing the Five Emperors’ treasure.

This guy was a Category Nine Emperor-tier beast, so the other six were surely not weak either. Long Chen would need to face six terrifying enemies.

It looks like getting the Five Emperors’ treasure is going to be extremely difficult … Long Chen suddenly felt a small wave of helplessness.

If he wasn't determined to reunite with Ling Xi, he might have actually given up.

After the man in purple left, Long Chen realized the crowd had descended into chaos once more. The regular cultivators were discussing among themselves. To them, this was basically divine intervention.

“I can’t believe that the Black Emperor’s mount is still alive today. It looks like many of the Ancient Graveyard’s rules could have been set by this demonic beast named Zi Xue, including the Ancient Tokens, and not those mysterious visitors from the Royal Territories,” said Bai Lan, furrowing his brows.

He postulated that the Five Emperors had created the Ancient Graveyard to train their descendants.

However, he did not know that the Purple-Blooded Jiao Dragon was actually one of the visitors from the Royal Territories.

Bai Lan believed the man completely, and it was the same for the other clan leaders, especially the Five Elements Alliance. They felt like the Jiao Dragon had handed them the Black Emperor Key, seeing as they were the true blood descendants of the Five Emperors.

However, more than ten thousand years had passed since then, so no one could ever verify this.
