Chapter 131: Chapter 131: The Ancient Phoenix Clan_1
After obtaining the Dragon Orb, the Purple Scale Thunder Dragon made rapid advancements in cultivation, and would soon break through to the Divinity Realm, with immense potential..
There was also a hierarchy system within the Dragon Clan.
Sin Dragons were the fallen ones, the wicked dragons.
But the Purple Scale Thunder Dragon was just a common thunder dragon within the Thunder Dragon Clan.
In the Dragon Clan, the lineage of the Sin Dragons was infinitely nobler than that of this ordinary thunder dragon, otherwise, it wouldn't have fallen to the point where it had to dwell and expand on the peripheral areas of the Wan Beast Mountain Range.
As long as it fully digested the Path of Inheritance within this Dragon Orb, not only would advancing to the Divinity Realm be possible, even breaching the Enshrouded Realm could be within reach.
Don't forget, the Purple Scale Thunder Dragon had an advantage that no one else did, that it was the Dragon King of Dawu, one of the leaders of the Savage Beast Army who first pledged allegiance to Chu Yuan, allowing it to obtain numerous Divine Elixirs.
Given its infinite resources, there was no reason to fear the Purple Scale Thunder Dragon's failure to break through to the Enshrouded Realm.
At that moment, the Purple Scale Thunder Dragon reported some news to him.
"You said that Commander Feng went to the Wan Beast Mountain Range alone?" Chu Yuan frowned upon this.
"Exactly. At first, I didn't pay much attention when I heard the news from my subordinates, but when I found out that Commander Feng was heading towards the depths of the Wan Beast Mountain Range, I began to suspect something was amiss."
The Purple Scale Thunder Dragon said, "The depths of the mountain range are fraught with danger, abundant with Peeping God demons. I had also been there and sensed the danger, especially in the even deeper parts that Commander Feng has decided to explore. It has got Divinity Realm demons, even Enshrouded Realm demons too, so I hastened to report this news to you."
[Option 1: Investigate the reasons for Zhu Fengfeng's journey to the depths of the Wan Beast Mountain Range and obtain three hundred Destiny Points.]
[Option 2: Do not inquire into the truth, accompany Zhu Fengfeng and gain three hundred Destiny Points.]
"Purple Scale Thunder Dragon, your report is very timely, return to your training. Strive to break through to the Divinity Realm as soon as possible. Leave this matter to me.".
Chu Yuan's figure flickered. His afterimage was still in the palace, but he had already disappeared.

"His Majesty's cultivation is becoming increasingly unfathomable!" The Purple Scale Thunder Dragon said in awe.
Wan Beast Mountain Range was immensely large, with interconnected mountains.
Even with the current ancient books, one cannot decipher its exact magnitude, especially in its deepest parts. Rumor has it that there are countless powerful and ancient beasts dwelling there, each capable of devastating power.
It was even rumored that the Wan Beast Mountain Range was just a general term, with countless domains existing within it, including the beast empire.
Although the Imperial City of Dawu was built at the foot of the mountain range, it was actually situated on the outermost periphery.
At that moment, Zhu Fengfeng was solemnly heading towards the depths of the Wan Beast Mountain Range, her course precise and deliberate.
Despite her cultivation level having advanced to the Peeping God Realm, she still felt inadequate for the depths of the Wan Beast Mountain Range.
"Commander Feng."
A voice rang out.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Zhu Fengfeng suddenly stopped, her face changed, as Chu Yuan abruptly appeared before her.
"Ding! The host makes choice one and gains three hundred Destiny Points."
"Commander Feng, no need to be surprised, it was the Dragon King who reported this to me. The Wan Beast Mountain Range is extremely dangerous, it's best not to venture into its depths."
Chu Yuan knew a little, ever since Zhu Fengfeng acquired the Phoenix Nest Wood from Daqian, she seemed off.
"I had some urgent matters to attend to in the depths of the mountain range, I didn't mean to alarm Your Majesty." Zhu Fengfeng said.
"What urgent matters?" Chu Yuan asked.
Zhu Fengfeng remained silent, lowering her head, prompting Chu Yuan to ask, "Do you absolutely have to go?"
"I must go!"
Zhu Fengfeng's tone was firm, but her eyes still seemed dodgy.
"Could you tell me why?" Chu Yuan asked, "More than twenty years ago, you were brought out from the Beast Mountains by the late emperor. Rumor has it that he saved you, though you never utter a word about it. There must be some hidden matter. Why not tell me the truth? There must be a significant reason for you to go further into this journey, maybe I could help you."
"I....."
Zhu Fengfeng began speaking, stuck under Chu Yuan's imperial presence, she finally confessed, "Your majesty, you are right. The late emperor did save me all those years before. It is true when they say I have the bloodline of a demon beast. Because I am from the Ancient Phoenix Clan."
"The Ancient Phoenix clan?" asked Chu Yuan.
"Yes, I'm indeed from the Ancient Phoenix Clan. Strictly speaking, my lineage is a branch of the Ancient Phoenix Clan."
Zhu Fengfeng said, "Tens of thousands of years ago, my ancestors detached from the Ancient Phoenix clan. They settled on the outskirts of the Beast Mountains. As thousands of years passed by, the ancestors passed away, my lineage dwindled, and our influence kept weakening. When I was a child, there were only a handful of us left. Now I am the last of my lineage.
I do not show myself as an Ancient Phoenix in front of you, because we, the Ancient Phoenix clan, have a naturally noble bloodline. Each member of our clan is cultivated in the Phoenix Blood Pool using a special method for a hundred years before they are born. We can take on a human shape without having to peek into the divine. I have always been afraid to reveal my true appearance.
My mother fell in the Beast Mountains over twenty years ago."
Talking about her mother, her face showed a deep sadness.
"My mother was preparing to break through the God Position but failed. She used the natural divine abilities of the Phoenix Clan to resurrect, and her soul did not collapse entirely. Although gravely injured and weakened, she was still more potent than an average deity. However, when she was at her most vulnerable, she was sneak attacked by a brutal wolf demon.
To prevent our clan from becoming extinct, she sent me, who was still weak and small, out of the Beast Mountains."
"So, that was when you met the late Emperor." Chu Yuan said.
"Indeed. Back then, several powerful demonic beasts were chasing me, trying to seize my Ancient Phoenix bloodline. The late Emperor appeared and saved me from those beasts."
On the usually cold face of Zhu Fengfeng, a twisted look of hatred emerged.
Chu Yuan nodded. Even though the late emperor wasn't a god, he had opportunities and his strength was even stronger than a regular god. That was why he was able to suppress the great threat single handedly.
Unfortunately…
The late Emperor has passed away…
Chu Yuan asked, "Why are you going to the Beast Mountains this time?"
"Before dying, my ancestor left behind the Ancient Phoenix ancestral land. My purpose for going there this time is to unlock the ancestral land and inherit the Ancient Phoenix legacy. After all, I am the last surviving member of my lineage. It is my responsibility to restore the glory of my lineage." Zhu Fengfeng said.
[Option 1: Protect Zhu Fengfeng and accompany her to the Ancient Phoenix Heritage Site, gaining 300 Destiny Points and 1 Beast Control Ring]
[Option 2: Advise Zhu Fengfeng not to go to the Ancient Phoenix Heritage Site now but to wait for a better opportunity, gaining 300 Destiny Points and 1 Divine Ability fruit.]
"You must know that it is hazardous to go intothe depth of Beast Mountains." Chu Yuan said.
"I know!" Zhu Fengfeng responded determinedly. "But I must go! If I can obtain the inheritance from the ancestral land, I can break through to the Godlight Realm, and there's even the chance that I might recover the strength of my ancestors. My ancestors held a true God Position. I can't withdraw!"
"Alright, since you have made up your mind, I won't stop you. I'll accompany you to the heritage site." Chu Yuan said with a slight smile.
"Your Majesty, you!"
Zhu Fengfeng said in surprise.
"You are a subject of Dawu, and it is your duty to be loyal to your sovereign. In the same way, when a subject is in need, as the ruler of Dawu, it's my responsibility. If you go deeper, it might be unsafe. My presence will make it safer."
Chu Yuan did not force Zhu Fengfeng to stay for the sake of the Divine Ability Fruit.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Fengfeng replied without any more unnecessary words.
She knew that Chu Yuan was a man of word and would not back down easily.
"No need to thank me. I am also doing it for Dawu. If you can gain your ancestor's heritage and make significant advances in your power, or even reach your ancestor's strength, it will be a blessing for Dawu. I lack powerful warriors in my ranks, and you provide potential."
Chu Yuan knew what was missing in Dawu was a top powerhouse. If Zhu Fengfeng could have strong powers, it would greatly enhance the foundation of Dawu. It's a good thing.
"Commander Feng, lead the way. I will offer my full help. Your strength is the strength of Dawu."
