Chapter 520: Begins With Hanyu
The separation from Huo Feng, as far as Lu Heng is concerned, can be considered a farewell.
It is both a farewell to the past and a farewell to the entire Celestial Desolation Realm.
Originally, his intention was to return to the Heavenly Court after the journey's end, preparing to enter the enigmatic world for cultivation, refining the peach fruit, and only reemerging into the world once his cultivation is complete.
However, now Lu Heng has forsaken this plan.In this colorful world, amidst the bustling human realm, there ought to be someone who steps forward to protect them for a while.
Even such protection, it cannot alter anything. After the Earthly Catastrophe descends, the ultimate outcome remains the extinction of all living beings.
But at the very least, Lu Heng desires to witness with his own eyes the destruction of it all, to personally bear witness to everything, imprinting within his own eyes the painful and desperate annihilation of a world.
Therefore, he decided to cultivate in the mountains, patiently awaiting the arrival of the Earthly Catastrophe and the advent of the enemies from the Seven Realms.
However, before that, there is one final matter to attend to.
After Lu Heng departed from Fu Shan City, he journeyed eastward towards the Eastern Sea, where he found the little white dragon, who had reclaimed her ancestral roots and ascended once again to the esteemed position of Dragon Emperor.
Regarding her own position as the Dragon Emperor, the young girl was evidently somewhat bemused.Although Lu Heng had previously assured her that there would be favorable circumstances awaiting her upon reaching the eastern lands, when she finally arrived at the edge of the Eastern Sea and encountered these exuberant group of dragon kin, she was still taken aback.
Subsequently, the young girl was directly surrounded and escorted back to Dragon Island, where she encountered a multitude of dragons that she had never seen before, or had any familiarity with. She was then taken for coronation and introduced to many aspects of her past "self". However, she had no recollection of those events, only knowing that she had been by her mentor's side since birth.
As it turned out, the reason she and her mentor were together was actually because she had harbored a desire to pursue her master back then, leading to their mutual disappearance into the Dragon Emperor's Secret Realm?
Doesn't that mean that the former me had feelings for my master and desired to marry him?
Sigh…
The young girl who realized this, suddenly took in a sharp breath, filled with astonishment.
Although her master was handsome and charismatic, exactly the type she liked, just the thought of herself marrying him and embracing him with only her bare body… Sigh…
The girl couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on her scalp, and goosebumps rose all over her body.
This is beyond outrageous!
Why do I have such a bizarre life experience, for heaven's sake!
The master I have revered my entire life, turned out to be the person I love the most?
I used to stick to him affectionately, clinging to him, rubbing against him, acting all cute and playful… Oh my goodness! Someone please give me a sword to stab myself to death!
The girl felt that she had lost face and couldn't bear to see that person again.
However, to her surprise, at this very moment, that figure dressed in white, which sent shivers down her spine, appeared on Dragon Island and came looking for her!
When Lu Heng paid a visit, the young girl felt extremely hesitant, almost on the verge of wanting to run away, and swore never to see this person again in her lifetime.
However, in the end, the young girl still couldn't escape.
She put on a bitter face, pretending as if nothing had happened, and lamented to Lu Heng, pouring out her troubles, saying how the dragon clan insisted on making her the Dragon Emperor, while she knew nothing about it, blabbering on and on.
Regarding this, Lu Heng chuckled softly, but didn't say much more.
His main purpose of coming this time is to notify the high-ranking members of the dragon clan, so that they can select dragons with exceptional cultivation and outstanding talents to enter the mysterious world.
Dragons are born powerful and possess extraordinary divine abilities, making them the most promising group within the Celestial Desolation Realm. However, there has never been a dragon who has ever employed the usage of the Life Deviation Technique.
Because every occurrence of the Earthly Catastrophe and the final battle, the dragons on Sanxian Island will rally together and venture beyond the realms to engage in a life-and-death confrontation.
This is a dragon clan tradition that has been passed down since the fall of the Dragon Emperor in the Dragon Falling Mountains.
This group, silently guarding the smooth winds and rains of the four seas beyond the boundaries of heaven and earth, holds the deepest affection for the Celestial Desolation Realm. They are unwilling to escape to the next life, preferring to perish in battle.
However, the current situation is no longer the same.
With thirty-six Peach Fruits in his grasp, Lu Heng is capable of restoring his former cultivation to its fullest. As long as he is given sufficient time to refine the Peach Fruits, it would not be difficult for him to conquer the seven realms and even ascend to Heaven beyond Heaven.
This is the final Earthly Catastrophe; there is no need for the dragon clan to shed blood any longer.
Lu Heng hopes to persuade this group of conservative dragon kin to depart.
However, the ultimate outcome, fell short of expectations.
Even Little White Dragon, who had recently become the Dragon Emperor, showed hesitation and reluctance to go to the mysterious world, unwilling to leave the dragon clan. Although she couldn't remember anything and didn't have any emotional attachment to the dragon kin, the stubbornness and tenacity of the dragon clan were reflected in her.
Upon this, Lu Heng sighed in his heart.
He had hoped that the young girl who returned early could persuade this stubborn dragon kin as the Dragon Emperor, but he didn't expect that even Little White, who had little attachment to Dragon Island, wavered, let alone the other dragons.
In the end, Lu Heng knocked out Little White and directly took her away.
As for the remaining dragon kin, since Lu Heng couldn't persuade them, he could only let them go their own way.
However, since Little White is his disciple, he cannot leave her here to die. Even though this young girl used to be the Dragon Emperor.
Anyway, this group of dragon kin didn't intervene when Lu Heng publicly knocked out Little White and took her away.
After all, considering the current state of Little White, it can be logically concluded that she is the reincarnation of Dragon Emperor Xiu Ya. As she has not yet regained her memories, her identity as a disciple of Lu Heng must take precedence over her identity as the Dragon Emperor.
As Lu Heng, the master, intended to take Little White away, the dragon kin naturally had no way to stop him.
After Lu Heng took Little Bai away, he directly sent her to the enigmatic realm.
Afterwards, Lu Heng, eventually ventured alone to the enigmatic Mount Buzhou and stayed there for over a month, only to depart from the enigmatic realm and return to the primordial wilderness.
Lu Heng, in relation to the enigmatic and unpredictable divine abyss that lies before Mount Buzhou, remains deeply unsettled and constantly senses great peril. Consequently, the Heavenly Court has established a temporary refuge within the enigmatic realm that is far distanced from this cryptic ancient mountain.
Only Huo Feng, sitting daily atop the summit of the mountain, gazes into the direction of Mount Buzhou, contemplating in profound silence.
It seemed as if he was sensing the sword intent emanating from afar.
Upon Lu Heng's return to the Celestial Desolation Realm, he directly made his way back to Hanyu Mountain, once again descending underground.
Within the veins of Hanyu Mountain, inside the divine palace, now permeates an essence of earth spirits. The All Souls Ancestral Root has taken root here, transforming this once ordinary barren mountain into a true paradisiacal sanctuary.
Within the underground palace that once imprisoned the Moluo Evil Spirit, faint traces of its presence from those bygone days can still be glimpsed.
And Lu Heng, it has been many years since he last set foot in this place.
As he once again returned to the underground palace, gazing at these familiar scenes, he couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy.
Over four thousand years ago, when he first awakened on Hanyu Mountain, the first sight that met his eyes was the radiant yellow underground palace before him.
At that time, he was all alone, and the entire Hanyu Mountain stood desolate and empty.
Now, four thousand years later, upon returning once again, he finds himself still all alone.
Originating from Hanyu, and yet also destined to conclude in Hanyu.
After awakening in the Celestial Desolation Realm, Lu Heng has experienced such a passage of time for over four thousand years…
