Chapter 295: Chaotic Star Island
Ao Ye could only feel his face heating up as he stood in mid-air.
Those weird gazes from his surroundings made him extremely uncomfortable.
Ao Ye coughed lightly and snorted. “Is this how the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground treats a guest that has arrived from faraway?”
The heavenly aura around the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader started swaying vigorously.
However, his voice was still calm and gentle. “Of course not. I have already prepared a welcome banquet. Dragon King, please come this way.”
After finishing, the various Spirit Mountains of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground shone gorgeously.
Clouds seemed to be dancing and cranes soaring in the air while dragonfishes jumped out of the stream one after the other. It was an impressive scene of a divine abode.
Of course, Chu Longhe definitely dared not act rashly at such moments or else, even if the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was emotionless, he would definitely be annihilated.
It was a huge matter if it concerned the sect’s honor!
The dragon palanquin drove into the Divine Firmament Small World, its mighty and powerful dragon aura surging everywhere.
However, as compared to a few moments ago, those Dragons seemed dispirited. They were all aggrieved.
Why?
Naturally, it was because they had lost in terms of seniority!
Black Dragon King Ao Ye was already one of the oldest seniors in the Dragon race, but even he had to call Shen Tian “Uncle”.
So what would the other Divine Dragon Guards call Shen Tian? What would they call those other elders from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground?
In the end, they would at least need to call the elders from Divine Firmament... Grandparents.
Not to mention exhibiting their strength to intimidate those from Divine Firmament, it would be good if they did not lose face!
...
Divine Firmament’s welcome banquet was extremely grand as the person they were receiving the Black Dragon King.
North Sea’s Black Dragon Island’s status could roughly be compared to Southern Border’s Nirvana Mountain. They were both the leaders of a whole region.
In comparison, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s status now was far below that of Black Dragon Island’s. Thus, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s reception of the Black Dragon King was extremely grand.
However, Divine Firmament’s elders did not have the feeling that Black Dragon Island’s status oppressed them.
On the contrary, everyone held their heads high.
Why?
Haha, that’s naturally because the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground had Shen Tian, who was their Saint!
Since the banquet started, those elders were all saying only words, such as “How good our sect’s Saint is”, “Our sect’s Saint is blessed by providence”, “Our sect’s Saint has the talents of a Thearch”, and so on...
Meanwhile, those Dragons from Black Dragon Island and the Black Dragon King gritted their teeth as they heard those words.
Originally, they would exchange praises on their disciples in such welcome banquets.
However, the situation now was too special. Shen Tian was ranked as Black Dragon King Ao Ye’s senior.
Thus, it would be impossible for Ao Ye to touch Shen Tian’s head, then smile and say, “Uncle is so talented, work hard and strive to become a Sage sooner.”
Just imagining such a scene sent shivers down his back!
Aunt Ao Bing, you’ve really done it this time!
...
Of course, not all Dragons were depressed.
Ao Wu was such an example—he was in a good mood.
That’s because originally, only he had to call Shen Tian “Grand-Uncle”, but many of those Divine Dragon Guards that came to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground together were of similar seniority as him. Also, those Divine Dragon Guards were mostly much older than him, and even they would need to call Shen Tian “Uncle”, so Ao Wu felt no pressure anymore.
As long as there are others more miserable than me, I feel much better.
The Black Dragon King left the table quickly after just casually filing his stomach.
“Sacred Leader Longyuan, frankly speaking, I’ve come to your sacred ground to bring Aunt Ao Bing back to Black Dragon Island.”
As North Sea’s only Rank-9 Black Dragon in the past 10,000 years, she had an irreplaceable and extremely high status among the Black Dragons.
Only after she returned to the Dragon race, restored her cultivation level, and completely reached her peak condition could there be hope to rival the Immortal Phoenix Queen.
Only then could the Black Dragon race have the power to rule over the North Sea and become its true leader.
However, if Ao Bing was outside, she would not be able to rapidly restore her cultivation level and would be in great danger.
Although the five regions seemed to be peaceful, it was only on the surface as not everyone was willing to see Black Dragon Island rising up again.
The Immortal Phoenix Queen might be glad to see her former opponent rise up again, but that did not mean Southern Border’s other Sages would be glad to see it.
Not to mention the formidable beings of North Sea’s powerful races might not be loyal to the Dragon race.
Also, the Evil Spirit Sect’s mighty figures hiding in the dark might make a move.
Killing a future invincible Dragon Sage was definitely very attractive to the Evil Spirit Sect.
Thus, welcoming Ao Bing back to Black Dragon Island was imperative!
The heavenly aura around the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader swayed gently.
“Dragon Lady Ao Bing is originally Black Dragon Island’s princess, so it’s only natural for her to return to the Black Dragon Island.
“Also, she had already signed the Dragon God contract with Tian’er. Thus, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground welcomes her to visit anytime.
“I hope that we can be on good terms with the Black Dragon Island and have an ever-lasting friendship as we are a family!”
As we’re a family!?
Ao Ye’s mouth could not help but twitch. Frankly speaking, he did not really want to acknowledge that they were “a family”.
However, there was no need to reject him as it might result in conflicts. Also, Ao Ye heaved a sigh of relief that the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader did not confine Ao Bing and prevent her from returning.
One had to know that a Rank-9 Black Dragon’s bloodline was extremely tempting to even sacred grounds. They might want to steal Ao Bing’s blood essence to make supreme-grade pills and Dharma artifacts. Or even worse, use Ao Bing to blackmail the Black Dragon Island and extort massive amounts of treasures.
Anyway, Ao Bing’s value was immeasurable. It was indeed rare that the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground would easily allow her to return.
That also made the Black Dragon King’s impression of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground turn slightly better.
“Then, Aunt Ao Bing, when will we be returning to Black Dragon Island?”
Ao Ye turned and looked at Ao Bing with anticipation. He wanted to leave as soon as possible.
He really did not want to stay another second in a sacred ground where almost everyone was of higher seniority.
“Return to Black Dragon Island?”
Ao Bing was currently pouring wine into her mouth.
Upon hearing that Ao Ye wanted to bring her back, she instantly pouted.
“Why return? Everyone in Black Dragon Island is very ugly. Not a single one is good-looking.”
Ao Ye, “...”
Ao Bing hugged Shen Tian’s arm and burped. “Shen Tian is handsome, so I’ll stay beside him!”
Zhang Yunxi’s face gradually darkened. “Dragon Lady Ao Bing is too frivolous. Although Junior Brother Shen Tian is your contract partner, how can you put your hands all over him?”
Ao Bing took a glance at Zhang Yunxi and chuckled.
“Little brat, such a waste of your height. Look at your flying vessel runway chest. You dare question me? Why, are you trying to prove how flat-chested you are?”
Zap!
Golden lightning surged in front of Zhang Yunxi’s table. “Damnit, you old female Dragon, you’re going too far!”
The Black Dragon King’s face also gradually darkened. “Divine Firmament Saintess, please be respectful to my aunt, be careful with the choice of your words.”
Zhang Yunxi snorted. “She might be the Dragon King’s aunt, but to me, she’s of the same seniority.”
Ao Ye, “!?”
I’m so angry! I really want to shoot a dragon breath and kill this girl!
...
Upon seeing how the originally harmonious atmosphere turned back to that of daggers drawn, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader said helplessly, “Yunxi, don’t be impolite. Dragon King, Dragon Lady, please calm down.
“Dragon Lady Ao Bing’s situation is special, so I still suggest that you return to Black Dragon Island to rest and recover as your cultivation level is only 1/10 of what it was.
“Firstly, Black Dragon Island is the ancestral land of the Dragon race, so it must definitely have special means to help you restore your cultivation quickly. You will be able to recover faster at Black Dragon Island.
“Secondly, the news of Dragon Lady Ao Bing having undergone Nirvana and been reborn is most likely already spreading. Hence, there might be people that may want to harm you.
“We have many guests visiting our sect, so we might not be able to guarantee Dragon Lady Ao Bing’s safety.
“If Dragon Lady Ao Bing was really harmed even slightly, we would be unable to account for it to Black Dragon Island.
“There are many powerful Holy Dragons in Black Dragon Island, so if Dragon Lady Ao Bing returns, you will definitely be able to have the best protection.
“Thirdly, the Black Dragon King has also come this time, so it’s the best opportunity for the Dragon Lady to return. I doubt anyone would dare attack you with the Black Dragon King’s protection.”
Seeing how the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was being this cooperative, Black Dragon King Ao Ye instantly revealed an expression of “gratitude”.
Hmph, at least he’s sensible.
Forget it then. Although he had some unpleasant memories with the Third Prince, it’s normal for youngsters to have conflicts.
If the Divine Firmament Saint is really talented and Aunt Ao Bing really likes him, then they can be given a chance.
As for the problem of seniority...
The distance between Eastern Wilderness and North Sea is even more than thousands of miles! At most, I won’t come to Eastern Wilderness in the future, simple!
Ao Ye was making such considerations in his mind!
Ao Bing, on the other hand, pouted. “I know, but I just don’t want to return.”
Haha, return to the Black Dragon Island?
It’s filled with kids a few generations younger than me. They would need to call me “Grand-Aunt”, “Great Grand-Aunt”, “Great Great Grand-Aunt”.
Just thinking about it is frightening!
I’m still a beautiful young lady, okay!?
I have not even found a partner, and I’m already on a Great Grand-Aunt level. I won’t go back! I definitely won’t go back no matter what!
It’s good staying beside Shen Tian! He’s handsome, and there’s so much Divine Juice Wine to drink for free.
It’s simply the ideal life!
Ao Ye, “...”
Why does she want to stay!?
Why does she think that Black Dragon Island is not worthy of her anymore?
Ao Ye was on the brink of tears.
“Aunt Ao Bing, what do you want me to do for you to agree to go back?”
Ao Bing replied, “Why must I return? All the invincible Dragons in our Black Dragon Island history reached such a stage by going on experiential journeys in the five regions.
“Since I underwent Nirvana in the Primordial Battlefield, I am no longer afraid of being targeted and all the more not rely on Black Dragon Island for protection!”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader smiled and said, “Black Dragon King, if my calculations are correct, Chaotic Star Island is going to appear next month, right?”
Chaotic Star Island?
Just what is Zhang Longyuan’s purpose?
Ao Ye replied coldly. “Yes, but Chaotic Star Island only allows those under 500 years old to enter.”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader then continued. “I heard that only human partners and prodigies of North Sea’s various races are able to enter Chaotic Star Island.
“Now that Tian’er has signed the contract with Ao Bing, does he have the qualifications to enter Chaotic Star Island?”
The Divine Firmament Saint wants to enter Chaotic Star Island?
Ao Ye frowned. One had to know that Chaotic Star Island was North Sea’s most important mystic realm.
It was hidden deeply within North Sea’s Chaos Array and enshrouded within a thick chaotic aura. Even Sages would not be able to barge into it.
There would be a “Distortion Period” every 300 years in the Chaos Array, where cracks would appear intermittently.
North Sea’s various prodigies would then be able to enter Chaotic Star Island through the cracks.
Tens of thousands of mysterious islands would be floating on North Sea then as if they were stars hanging in the sky.
As long as one was able to break through the natural barrier covering the island and enter, they would be able to encounter fortuitous opportunities and obtain treasures on those islands.
Even Divine artifacts, imperial sutras, and extraordinary items were discovered more than once on such islands. It could be said that at least 30% of the fortuitous opportunities encountered in North Sea were from Chaotic Star Island.
Don’t look down on just 30%!
One had to know that North Sea was vast and boundless, not to mention its depth was unfathomable. The fortuitous opportunities and treasures contained within were countless.
Chaotic Star Island would only appear once every 300 years and last only about one year each time. The benefits reaped from just this one year were enough to almost be on par with the treasures obtained from exploring for 300 years.
Thus, it could be imagined just how bountiful the treasures in Chaotic Star Island were. It was simply terrifying!
...
One had to know that when Ao Bing had entered Chaotic Star Island, she had dominated all of those in her generation and obtained most of the major fortuitous opportunities.
It was a pity that Chaotic Star Island had its own rules, and all living beings over 500 years old were forbidden from entering. If they tried to barge in forcibly, then the originally dispersed chaotic aura would instantly surge and envelop them.
By then, no matter how powerful one was, they would be disintegrated by the chaotic aura.
If not, if Ao Bing could enter Chaotic Star Island again, she might be able to obtain some huge fortuitous opportunity.
Ao Ye said calmly, “The Divine Firmament Saint has signed the contract with Aunt Ao Bing, so he naturally has the qualifications to enter Chaotic Star Island.
“It’s just that I have come this time to escort Aunt Ao Bing back to Black Dragon Island. If I’m unable to do that, then I’m afraid I cannot return.”
You must be joking. I am here to fetch my aunt, not my uncle!
You want him to enter Chaotic Star Island? Sure, then think of ways to convince Aunt Ao Bing to return.
If not, just your sect’s Saint wants to enter Chaotic Star Island to obtain fortuitous opportunities? Dream on!
The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader smiled and said, “That’s simple. Tian’er, how about you follow the Black Dragon King and send Ao Bing back to Black Dragon Island?”
After finishing, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader turned to look at Ao Bing. “What do you think, Dragon Lady? Would it be fine for Tian’er to accompany you?”
Let him accompany me?
Ao Bing took a glance at Shen Tian before turning to look at Zhang Yunxi, who was gritting her teeth at the side. Her young face revealed a playful smile.
“Since Shen Tian is coming with me, then alright!”
Zhang Yunxi, “...”
Ao Ye, “???”
She agreed to this easily!?
I tried persuading for so long without use, and then with just a few words of “Shen Tian accompanying” and Aunt Ao Bing is willing to obediently return!?
Indeed, what Father said back then was correct... Aunt Ao Bing is a complete sucker for looks!
...
The Black Dragon King did not enjoy this welcome banquet, as it had directly turned into a farewell banquet.
After finishing this meal, Ao Ye directly invited Ao Bing and Shen Tian on the dragon palanquin and rushed back to North Sea.
He did not want to stay in such a place even for another second longer. The difference in seniority was just too large!
The dragon palanquin advanced into the distance, and the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader looked from afar.
The heavenly aura around him was swaying gently.
“Tian’er, I await your triumphant return to our sacred ground!”
