Chapter 1091 Horned Dragon Monarch
Whoosh!
Fang Xi's Universe Great Emperor avatar streaked like a beam of light, soaring through the boundless seas at an astonishing speed.
“At this speed, it wouldn't take even an hour to traverse the Vast Sea Immortal Domain. . . ”
His heart filled with boundless exhilaration as he gradually unleashed his aura from within his inner universe.
Dao Monarchs, having merged with their Dao Seeds, could leverage the power of the True Immortal World's laws with every move, their might astonishingly formidable.
Dao Venerables stood even higher, mastering a Great Dao and possessing the resonance of the Great Dao!
As the saying goes, 'What one constantly thinks of, must inevitably have a resonance! '
The more you understood a Dao Venerable, the more that Dao Venerable would naturally become aware of you.
“I truly don't know much about that Spacetime Dao Venerable. He always keeps a low profile and seems to only be roused by the Great Dao's resonance when a Spacetime Dao Monarch proves their Dao. . . ”
“Am I still considered a Spacetime Dao Venerable now? Or perhaps. . . a Universe Dao Venerable? ”
Fang Xi pondered silently to himself.
The four directions, up and down, are called 'Yu' (Space); past and present are called 'Zhou' (Time)!
Therefore, the Universe Dao Venerable, in reality, was mostly still a Spacetime Dao Venerable!
‘This overlap of Great Daos is quite severe. That Spacetime Dao Venerable might very well suffer a massive reduction in power because of my existence. . . perhaps even lose their Dao Venerable position? This is intriguing. . . ’
He entertained some less-than-benevolent thoughts, just as he was about to fly out of the Vast Sea Immortal Domain.
A whoosh of water!
Suddenly, ahead, a turbulent expanse of waves surged, and an infinite water curtain rose, transforming into an immense barrier encompassing countless tens of thousands of miles.
The sky was azure like water, and the waves were like dragons, soaring into the heavens!
“No need to panic, fellow cultivators! Our Horned Dragon clan is apprehending a major criminal! ”
From time to time, Water Race members would ride the waves, their appearances bizarre and monstrous, fierce and malevolent, wielding steel tridents, shouting threats: “Our Horned Dragon clan's Second Prince is here! You human cultivators, quickly stand still and await inspection! Don't be foolish and invite disaster upon yourselves. . . ”
Fang Xi originally couldn't be bothered to pay them any mind. He was ready to simply blow apart the formation, give these aquatic creatures a lesson, and then be on his way.
But upon hearing the name of the Horned Dragon clan's Second Prince, he stopped with renewed interest.
After all, the Horned Dragon clan's Third Prince – Jiao Wu Xin – had died by his hand.
With a sweep of his Divine Consciousness, he spotted an acquaintance again and couldn't help but rub his chin: “So it's her. . . quite a karmic entanglement. ”
...
A cry!
At the edge of the Water Curtain Flying Dragon Grand Array, amidst the long cries of water dragons, a five-colored phoenix was forced out of the void, manifesting as Feng Huang. Staring at the water curtain ahead, imbued with the power of laws, a trace of despair involuntarily surfaced on her face.
That day, after falling out with the Horned Dragon clan, she knew she couldn't remain in the Vast Sea Immortal Domain. She had specifically chosen to bypass the Horned Dragon clan's sphere of influence and flee beyond the domain.
However, the Immortal World was simply too vast. After fleeing for so many years, she still hadn't managed to fly out of the Vast Sea Immortal Domain.
And today, she was finally caught by the Horned Dragon clan's experts.
“Hmph. . . you lowly hussy! ”
With an enraged roar, a green horned dragon with a single horn and two claws quietly emerged from within the water curtain ahead.
Its form coalesced like mist and dew, carrying an extremely nimble and transformative essence.
It was, astonishingly, a Path-severing Dao Child, and the Dao Seed it had merged with was not water element, but water mist!
This was actually a good thing, meaning it wouldn't be noticed by the Five Elements Immortal Palace and held a slim possibility of truly proving its Dao successfully and living freely.
Just looking at this point, this horned dragon was stronger than Jiao Wu Xin had been back then!
Strands of water mist permeated the sky-filling phoenix script, and Feng Huang knew it was bad. She found it utterly impossible to resist, feeling her immortal power stagnate within her body, and her figure plummeted from mid-air.
“Hahaha. . . my Third Brother offended a Dao Monarch, so his death is no great loss, but as a Prince of the Horned Dragon clan, the matter must be thoroughly investigated. . . ”
The water mist horned dragon transformed into a handsome man with a single horn on his head and green scales on his body. Extending a pair of large hands, he moved to seize Feng Huang: “My Third Brother's cultivation wasn't much, but his taste in women was rather good. . . With your beauty, you're barely suitable to be my Second Prince's concubine. . . ”
“Hmm? ”
Suddenly, a trace of green flashed in the Horned Dragon Second Prince's eyes, and his expression abruptly changed: “Your primal Phoenix Essence is already lost, a faded blossom and a withered willow, unworthy to be my concubine. . . Scram! ”
Boom!
Water mist coalesced in the void, forming a human hand covered in green scales, which slammed down fiercely.
A cry!
Feng Huang let out a cry of sorrow, blood splattering across the sky.
This Horned Dragon Second Prince cultivated a spiritual eye Divine Ability that specialized in discerning whether a female cultivator's Yin Essence was abundant, if she possessed rare artifacts within her, and so on. At this moment, with a single glance, he saw that Feng Huang was not pristine, and immediately erupted in fury: “It seems my Third Brother already had the first taste. Fine, then, I'll just capture you and take you back as per Father Monarch's command. . . ”
The Horned Dragon Monarch had previously exchanged blows with Fang Xi using a wisp of Divine Consciousness and knew his opponent was merely a pathetic and useless Illusory Annihilation Dao Monarch.
The Law of Illusory Annihilation, for those below the Dao Monarch realm, was like slicing melons and dicing vegetables, but among Dao Monarchs, it was a standard weakling.
Recalling it afterward, the Horned Dragon Monarch felt that through that wisp of Divine Consciousness, this Illusory Annihilation Dao Monarch was even weaker than average!
If his true body had been present at the time, he would absolutely not have suffered such a great loss of face.
Thus, he had ordered the aquatic beings of the Vast Sea Immortal Domain to gather relevant clues.
The Horned Dragon Monarch wasn't solely seeking revenge; rather, having inexplicably fallen out with a Dao Monarch, he needed to ascertain the full story.
Moreover, the Illusory Annihilation Dao Monarch wasn't overly powerful, giving him the confidence to investigate.
Only after clarifying the background could he decide whether to fight or reconcile.
This Horned Dragon Second Prince had mobilized his subordinates, spending countless years, finally catching a trace of Feng Huang.
As the last female to meet the Third Prince, Feng Huang naturally wouldn't be overlooked. He immediately came in person, ready to apprehend her and interrogate her thoroughly.
Suddenly, from within the sea, another purple horned dragon flew out.
Its dragon claws were chillingly sharp, clutching a phoenix.
“So it's Big Brother. . . ”
Seeing the First Prince, the Horned Dragon Second Prince's face involuntarily flashed with a trace of anger: “Are you here to steal my glory? ”
“Heh heh, Second Brother, what are you talking about? You clearly didn't want this female demon. . . Conveniently, I've always been unbothered by anything, so I'll gladly take her. ”
From within the purple horned dragon's head, a deep and boorish voice emanated.
Feng Huang, clutched in the dragon's claws, heard this and felt such shame that she wished to die, yet she was utterly helpless. . .
Recalling the past, she couldn't help but shed more tears.
Perhaps, if she had recognized that sword-bearing big man as her master back then, she wouldn't have met with such a calamity?
At the very least, with his strength, she certainly wouldn't be like this, traversing for so many years only to still be stuck in the Vast Sea Immortal Domain, blocked by this Horned Dragon First Prince and Second Prince.
At this moment, with all hope extinguished, Feng Huang prepared to use a secret technique to commit suicide.
This was a secret art she had painstakingly cultivated after her previous experience of being unable to live or die, with no path to heaven or escape to earth.
Even a Dao Child-level cultivator might not be able to stop it.
Suddenly!
The sound of a sword hum resounded throughout heaven and earth.
A dazzling sword light appeared, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, directly puncturing the Water Curtain Grand Array, causing the water dragons to wail and lose their heads.
Immediately afterward, that sword light burst forth with brilliance, like a leaping star pellet, striking with a single sword towards the purple horned dragon's First Prince.
Pfft!
A thin, fine white line streaked across the First Prince's neck, and the purple flood dragon's head gloomily drooped.
Only then did a wisp of Divine Consciousness emerge, exasperated and furious, transforming into a purple jade horned dragon—it was precisely the Horned Dragon Monarch!
“Father Monarch, save me! ”
Upon seeing this, the Second Prince immediately let out a loud cry, conjuring a dragon-scale shield, and retreated rapidly.
In his heart, he was both terrified by the terrifying sword cultivator's attack and secretly delighted.
With Big Brother and Third Brother both dead, wouldn't he be the only Prince of the Horned Dragon clan from now on?
Although this Prince might not ascend to the throne for hundreds of thousands, even millions of years, the benefits he would gain would increase significantly. . .
A layer of ice crystals appeared, blocking the path before the dragon-scale shield.
Within the ice crystals, astonishingly, was a purple jade horned dragon.
The terrifying might of a Dao Monarch spread, causing Feng Huang to nearly faint.
Clink!
But the next moment, a clear, ringing sword hum was heard.
The Horned Dragon Second Prince's dragon-scale shield was sliced by a white line, instantly splitting neatly into two halves.
As for the purple jade horned dragon within the ice crystals and the desperate array of protective grand arts and magical treasures it unleashed, all were utterly useless.
That wisp of white line swept past the Horned Dragon Second Prince's body, utterly severing even his Nascent Soul!
Splash!
A horned dragon corpse floated on the sea surface, blood spreading outwards, attracting countless fish and sea beasts to devour and fight over it. . .
And the next moment, a cold snort echoed, and those aquatic beings vying for the dragon's blood were instantly shaken to death!
Amidst the ethereal mist, ice crystals fell like snowflakes.
A purple jade horned dragon's figure sped from afar, radiating a terrifying aura.
“The Horned Dragon Monarch. . . That Dao Monarch isn't just a wisp of Divine Consciousness? His true body is also nearby? ”
Feng Huang murmured, then looked towards the source of the sword light.
She saw a sword-bearing big man, striding over the waves, his imposing aura actually standing as an equal to the Horned Dragon Monarch, clearly not losing any ground.
“Master. . . ”
Feng Huang involuntarily spoke, recognizing the sword-bearing big man as her former master, the one who had tamed her and then discarded her like a worn-out shoe.
Only at this moment did she finally come to a sudden realization.
How could someone who could slay two great Princes of the Horned Dragon clan with a single sword, and then stand against the Horned Dragon Monarch without losing ground, be an ordinary Immortal?
He was definitely a Dao Monarch!
‘Previously, a Dao Monarch actually wanted to take me as a mount? ’
Feng Huang had to admit, regret had already begun to blossom in her heart.
If she had known he was a Dao Monarch earlier, she should have agreed immediately.
“Hold on. . . we settled our accounts long ago. Don't go randomly calling me master. . . ”
Fang Xi immediately snapped.
This Universe Great Emperor avatar of his possessed genuine Dao Venerable combat power.
This time, seeing Feng Huang in trouble and with a Horned Dragon clan Dao Monarch lurking nearby, he had paused his steps.
Truth be told, it was primarily for the Horned Dragon Monarch's sake.
As for this lower realm phoenix?
Their master-servant bond had ended; why continue it?
What's more, for the other party to shamelessly try to renew it?
Fang Xi only cared about what he once possessed; by now, he had long since let go.
Upon hearing this, Feng Huang's expression involuntarily paled, and her heart grew even more desolate. Her Dao Heart even began to waver. . .
