Chapter 217: 113 The Secret of the Dragon Seal _3
As Shen Yuan closed his eyes, focusing his spiritual energy, operating the Gods Purging Divine Power, he suddenly noticed a flash of light. Behind the Dragon Palace Edict, it seemed as if there was an invisible thread connected to the void.
His vision changed, watching the world from a bird’s eye view. Ancient temples located by the River Ji sprang up in his view. Despite three thousand years of Spirit Energy depletion, the incense within these temples never ceased to burn.
Every year during the Dragon King Festival, each provincial capital would hold grand celebrations to pay their respects to the River Ji Ancestral Bloodline.
Even within the core of the Human Emperor Dynasty – the Imperial Capital – the Four Waterways Ancestral Bloodline still remained celebrated in the annual sacrificial rites. Over tens of thousands of years, the power from the offerings of the incense comingled within this land and sky.
And the source of all of this incense power was…
The vision in front of Shen Yuan changed again, suddenly appearing in a narrow Secret Realm.
In a Natural Spirit Pool, a golden pangolin, with long whiskers, was boredly tossing a delicately crafted seal into the air.
The seal was tossed back and forth like a toy, absorbing all the power of the incense offerings.
“The source of the River Ji spiritual path is the River Ji Dragon Seal?”
Shen Yuan opened his eyes in surprise, his eyes full of confusion.
When he obtained the River Ji Dragon Seal, he hadn’t yet mastered the Gods Purging Divine Power. He only knew that both Prince Ji Du and the Dragon Palace attached great importance to this seal – symbolizing the status of the Dragon Sovereign – but didn’t know why.
After gaining the Gods Purging Divine Power, Shen Yuan had tossed the River Ji Dragon Seal into a Natural Spirit Pool for the pangolin to play with. He had never touched the seal at any time since, causing him to overlook this Divine Treasure of incense power.
“If the River Ji Dragon Seal is the source of the River Ji Spirit Path, it surely possesses the ability to restrict and seal Water Gods. Its significance to the entire River Ji Dragon Palace is self-evident.
In some ways, the Dragon Seal is the foundation of the River Ji Dragon Palace’s domination over the waters.
No wonder the current River Ji Dragon Sovereign went to such great lengths to find an agent, and even dispatched a great demon to retrieve the Dragon Seal. With such a treasure lost, anyone would be anxious.”
“But for me, this is a perfect opportunity. By studying the Incense Offering Divinity Path using the Divine Treasure, the River Ji Dragon Seal, I may be able to advance my Gods Purging Edict to the first level.
By then, there will be no more obstacles for the Incense Fire Incarnation Method.”
Shen Yuan even thought about heading back to the Courtyard Secret Realm and begin his intensive study of the River Ji Dragon Seal immediately.
Just then, Shen Yuan felt a shiver from the Yin God,. His gaze solemnly turned towards the river in the distance.
Over a hundred miles away on the river surface, the once clear sky became shrouded in dark clouds. The bright daylight quickly transformed into a densely clouded sky.
From amidst the clouds, dark purple lightnings, accompanied by the wrath of the heavens and earth, roared down, causing the river to tremble and incite towering waves. From the churning waves, it seemed as if a local deity was roaring furiously at the world.
The next instant, a deep-blue spiritual treasure command flag rose into the sky, defying the harnessed storm powers of the converging rivers, and dispersed the gathered storm clouds.
At the confluence of these rivers, a colossal deity formed from the rivers’ waters appeared with his gaze fixated towards Qingping County. Through the medium of River Ji, a majestic voice instantly resonated throughout the entire Cang Province.
“Those who violate River Ji Dragon Palace will be killed without mercy!”
