Chapter 677: Chapter 380: Tribulations in Succession, Profound Immortal Tribulation
"Wuzhiqi?"
"Buddhist backing?"
Su Yu clicked his tongue and nodded, saying:
"Indeed, it’s quite troublesome."
Let’s not even mention Wuzhiqi, a great demon from the Primordial Era who has survived until now, possessing the cultivation of a Daluo Golden Immortal.
With such a deity backing him, it’s truly a headache, being unable to even consider killing him.
As for that Goldfish Spirit, her strength surely isn’t a match for the Water Ape, but her origins are even more troublesome than Wuzhiqi’s.
One must know that the Eight Treasures Merit Pool is the birthplace of the Jieyin Saint of the Buddhist sect; even if this Goldfish Spirit is just a goldfish from the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, her background is extraordinary.
As the saying goes, before hitting a dog, consider its master. Even if the Jieyin Saint wouldn’t care about such a small goldfish, outsiders wouldn’t dare think like that.
Moreover, now that this Goldfish Spirit clearly has the support of the Buddhist sect, it’s even more troublesome.
Lis hui Dragon Monarch seemed to resonate, speaking as if confiding:
"Both these demons have extraordinary backgrounds, their strength is formidable, and they have strong support. There’s nothing I can do."
"I understand."
Su Yu nodded and said solemnly:
"I am here today specifically to assist you."
"I have already reported to the Immortal Official to bring Celestial Soldiers from Celestial Pillar Mountain to aid you, crushing these two great demons to help you fully control Lis hui."
"The Immortal Envoy is willing to help me?"
Lis hui Dragon Monarch was stunned, taking a while to react and asked hesitantly:
"May I know what important matter the Immortal Envoy needs my help with? Or what do you need?"
Su Yu listened and laughed:
"Why does the Dragon Monarch think I came with a purpose?"
Lis hui Dragon Monarch remained silent for a moment before saying:
"Could it be that the Immortal Envoy truly assists me without any purpose?"
Su Yu continued to laugh:
"If you must say, indeed, there is a purpose."
Lis hui Dragon Monarch visibly relaxed and said:
"Please tell me, Immortal Envoy, if I can manage it, I won’t refuse."
"My purpose is simple, merely to assist my kin."
"???"
Lis hui Dragon Monarch looked Su Yu up and down, puzzled, and asked:
"You seem to be purely of the Human Race, where does this assisting kin come from? Please, Immortal Envoy, clarify."
Su Yu said nothing, just a shake of his form, a red dragon-shaped light rose from above his head, instantly transforming into a dragon head and human body like the Dragon Monarch. An overwhelming dragon bloodline pressure swept over, forcing the Dragon Race members in the Dragon Palace back several steps, while several of weaker bloodlines fell limp.
"Ancient Dragon!!!"
Lis hui Dragon Monarch’s face showed both shock and delight. When Su Yu turned his gaze filled with awe, Lis hui Dragon Monarch shivered, straightened his expression, clasped his fists, and bowed:
"Lis hui Dragon Monarch Ao Tao, pays respects to the Superior!"
Numerous surrounding dragon offspring all bowed and loudly proclaimed:
"Dragon offspring Ao Chang, Ao Lie, pay respects to the Dragon God!"
This title made Su Yu raise an eyebrow, but he wasn’t surprised. He had already known from researching in the Celestial Court that in the Primordial Era, all Ancient Dragons of the Dragon Race were referred to as Dragon Gods.
He gently raised his hand, signaling for them to rise, then turned to Lis hui Dragon Monarch and asked:
"Do you understand my purpose now?"
"Ao Tao understands."
Su Yu walked around the hall with his hands behind his back, speaking solemnly:
"I come from the Cyan Immortal Domain, once a Human, a destined human who, through a chance to complete a Heavenly Dao task, was bestowed a drop of Primal Dragon’s true blood by the Heavenly Dao, thus transforming into an Ancient Dragon."
"Therefore, I am both Human and Dragon."
He completed a circle and continued speaking:
"Over the years, I’ve traveled widely, witnessing in the Cyan Immortal Domain the provocations of the Sea Snake Race against our kind, understanding the forbearance of the Four Sea Dragon Kings in the Celestial Court, and observing the fear local Dragon Monarchs have towards demons with profound backgrounds, deeply feeling the decline of our Dragon Race."
"As an Ancient Dragon, I have the responsibility to strengthen and revive our Dragon Race, though this is not an overnight task. It requires long-term planning. Recently, I learned of your problem when inspecting the Lis Mountain area, and I’ve come to assist."
At this moment, Lis hui Dragon Monarch had fully believed him and bowed again. But this time, it wasn’t out of gratitude but rather...
"Superior is kind, but Superior should not roam widely now but should find a safe place to cultivate and strive for early accomplishment."
"Only if Superior advances to Golden Immortal soon can our Dragon Race truly flourish."
"By the way, did Superior go to the Four Seas Dragon Palace? Such an important matter as ascending to Dragon God, why have the Four Sea Dragon Kings not informed local Dragon Monarchs?"
Su Yu shook his head and said:
"I have not met the Four Dragon Kings yet."
Hearing this, Lis hui Dragon Monarch was anxious:
"How can this be! Superior’s ascendance to Dragon God is of paramount importance. The Four Dragon Kings have the responsibility to ensure your safety."
Su Yu waved it off and said:
"There’s no rush. I now have the power to protect myself, and informing the Four Seas Dragon Palace can wait until I have the opportunity in the future."
"But what if something unexpected happens?"
"Furthermore, now that you hold a position in the Celestial Court, even though our Dragon Race is in decline, the Four Dragon Kings hold sixth-grade immortal positions. Our kind has certain connections in the Celestial Court that can aid Superior in advancing better and quicker."
"Please wait, Superior. I will now write four letters to inform the Four Dragon Kings."
"Uh...."
Seeing his serious urgency, Su Yu gave up on persuading further.
If he’s going to speak, so be it. Eventually, it will be said.
Moreover, the Dragon Monarch is right. Having the assistance of the Four Dragon Kings would indeed expedite my advancement within the Celestial Court’s hierarchy.
Although the Dragon Race is in decline and doesn’t hold high positions in the Celestial Court, there are many of them.
Besides the Four Dragon Kings, the Celestial Court holds Dragon Kings in thousands of small and large Immortal Domains similar to the Cyan Immortal Domain, and numerous Dragon Monarchs in the four major continents, forming an immensely powerful force in the Celestial Court’s aquatic military.
