1886 Long Fen and Long Lang Submits, The End of The Matter, Primordial Gate
The Supreme God King escaped after receiving a deadly slash from Chu Kuangren.
The audience who witnessed the battle was in awe.
Some even chose to leave the scene.
Chu Kuangren looked in the direction that Long Tianfeng dived into with a smile. For some reason, he did not give chase.
He then looked at Long Lang and Long Fen, the other two God Kings.
The two of them were stunned when Long Tianfeng chose to leave.
Long Tianfeng left with their dragon qi! He had taken their dragon qi, leaving them defenseless.
What should they do?
Stay behind and allow Chu Kuangren to slaughter them like lambs?
"Lil Ai, do they still pose a threat?" Chu Kuangren asked.
"Their dragon qi was taken away by Long Tianfeng. In order to recover to their prime, they might need about three hundred years. However, based on their insights into their Dao and the unique physique of the Dragon Tribe, they are still capable of fighting. Their strengths would be equivalent to an Ultimate Arch Gilded Immortal," Lil Ai answered.
Chu Kuangren nodded. He channeled his Immortal's Core energy, manifested it into a massive hand, and blasted them, inflicting serious injuries on them.
The reason he did not kill them was because they were still useful. Moreover, he was helping Long Shuijing to take over the Dragon Tribe because he wanted to control it. He did not wish to leave any useless people behind that could drag them down.
"As for you…" Chu Kuangren looked at the Dragon King.
The Dragon King was just an Ultimate Arch Gilded Immortal.
With Chu Kuangren's current strength, he could easily destroy the man.
"Master, leave him to me," Long Shuijing suggested.
"Sure." Chu Kuangren nodded.
Long Shuijing glanced at her father before she walked over to the golden dragon throne that symbolized the position of the Dragon King.
She sat down on it.
The other Dragon Tribe members exchanged a baffled look.
It was Shuiling Long who knelt down first and chanted, "Your Majesty, Dragon King!"
The other Dragon Tribe members followed.
As the saying went, the winner was the king, and the loser was the foe.
It was the sacred rule of the Holy Dragon Duel. In addition to Long Shuijing's reputation among her people, it was only natural for her to become the Dragon King.
Moreover, she had Chu Kuangren as support.
No one dared to defy her ascension to the throne.
The birthday banquet became Long Shuijing's coronation ceremony, and no one saw it coming.
…
Later, in a palace located somewhere within the Dragon Tribe's territory, Chu Kuangren was resting after the battle with Long Tianfeng.
Meanwhile, Long Shuijing was away dealing with affairs after her coronation.
In front of Chu Kuangren were the two God Kings, Long Fen and Long Lang.
After Long Tianfeng escaped, the two of them fell captive to Chu Kuangren, and their lives were in his hands. There was nothing they could do to fight back.
Some serious thoughts later, Long Lang chose to submit.
After some struggles, Long Fen followed.
They did not want to die, nor would they wish for the Dragon Tribe to be annexed by other tribes after losing all of its God Kings. Therefore, submitting was the only way.
At least Long Shuijing had ascended to the Dragon King's position.
She had the Heavenly Rainbow Dragon bloodline and the King's Mark. Making her Dragon King was a much better choice than allowing the old Dragon King to continue his reign.
"Now, tell me about the deal made between the Dragon Tribe and the Dao King Tribe," Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
"It's the Primordial Gate," Long Lang said.
"Oh?" Chu Kuangren was intrigued.
He had never heard of the Primordial Gate, but anything related to Primordial ought to be something important or valuable.
"In the legend of the creation of the Central Heaven Universe, this universe was created by an ancient God named Tian Yuan.
"Tian Yuan died by exhausting all his energy after he started the universe, and his body transformed into everything in the universe," Long Lang explained.
Chu Kuangren thought the story sounded familiar.
Pan Gu of the Pan Gu Universe had the exact same ending as Tian Yuan, and Tian Yuan was like Pan Gu in the Pan Gu Universe.
Long Land then explained that Tian Yuan's body transformed into everything in the universe — the planets, the stars, and the sun, but his heart was left behind.
His heart transformed into an ancient land named the Central Heaven Heart Realm.
Legend had it that the Central Heaven Heart Realm contained the secrets of ascending to Primordial and the entrance to that place was known as the Primordial Gate.
However, it was not easy trying to open the Primordial Gate. It required the blood essence of some kind of pure living being as the key.
The strongest and the purer the being, the better the effect.
"The Dao King Tribe found the Primordial Gate but couldn't open it. If the blood essence of the human race was to be used, they had no idea how many humans they would have to kill to gather enough blood essence to open the gate.
"A genocide would definitely attract attention from different forces, and that was why the Dao King Tribe came to us. Dragons are born with natural power, and our blood essence is much more suitable as a key to open the Primordial Gate than human blood essence.
"That was why our brother agreed to it."
Long Lang sighed helplessly.
He disagreed with the decision, but Long Tianfeng was firm on the thought. Both of them failed to dissuade their brother.
"Interesting. The secrets of ascending to Primordial? No wonder Long Tianfeng had the heart to allow the Dao King Tribe to hunt down his own people." Chu Kuangren chuckled as the question in his heart was answered.
Then, Long Shuijing came in.
She was not in a good mood.
Chu Kuangren found out that the hunt had been occurring for a few years, but the old Dragon King suppressed the news, which infuriated Long Shuijing.
As Dragon King, not only did he fail to protect his people, but he even aided outsiders to hunt his own people. How ridiculous!
When Chu Kuangren told Long Shuijing about the Primordial Gate, she finally understood the motive behind all this. However, it did not decrease her resentment.
"Hmph. Now that I'm Dragon King, no one can hurt my people. I don't care about the Primordial Gate. If the Dao King Tribe continues to hunt my people, I will go to war with them," Long Shuijing said.
"The Primordial Gate interests the Heavens," Chu Kuangren said with a grin.
However, things went quiet for a period of time.
The Dao King Tribe somehow realized the change of Dragon King would disrupt their plan, so they stopped sending their men to hunt down the dragons.
Chu Kuangren knew they would not simply give up the chance of opening the Primordial Gate.
After all, it held the secrets of affirming one's Dao to break through to the Primordial Realm.
"Sufficient amount of blood essence is required to open the Primordial Gate. Since the Dao King Tribe has started gathering dragon blood essence for years, it would be highly unlikely for them to change to another species halfway.
"But they stopped hunting. Could it be that they have gathered enough? No, maybe this is what they are going to do…"
A sudden thought rushed into Chu Kuangren's mind, and a pensive smile appeared on his face.
After talking to Long Shuijing, he left the Dragon Tribe.
He traveled the universe alone but not aimlessly. He followed a strange calling and headed toward a certain location.
…
Somewhere in the universe, the Supreme God King of the Dragon Tribe, Long Tianfeng, stood before a dangerous land shrouded by a spatial storm.
He was able to spot restrictions floating inside, and one glance at them sent chills down one's spine.
"Primordial Gate, I have sacrificed a lot for you. Please don't let me down," he muttered.
His figure flashed as he entered the spatial storm. He followed a certain pattern to move past the restriction seals and ventured deeper.
