"Master, I’ll take you flying."
Xiaotian danced through the air, soaring across the heavens.
In the sky, he was the king.
Jiang Chen even felt that the current Xiaotian had already surpassed the Flame Dragon.
He gave a wry smile and then flew into the air.
In a flash, he appeared atop Xiaotian’s head.
Standing atop his head, Jiang Chen was carried through the sky by Xiaotian.
Jiang Chen’s robes billowed in the wind, flapping audibly.
Standing atop Xiaotian, Jiang Chen felt as if heaven and earth were under his control.
"Xiaotian, this Blood Dragon’s inheritance is truly extraordinary."
"You’ve come into a tremendous stroke of fortune this time."
Xiaotian immediately laughed happily. "Master, the Blood Dragon awakened the Golden Dragon bloodline within me. I’m a little Golden Dragon now!"
"In the future, I will be the Golden Dragon King, supreme among all realms."
"I will accompany you across heaven and earth, to reign supreme over the nine heavens."
"We’ll make our names echo through the ten thousand realms!"
Jiang Chen looked up at the sky of the Dragon-locking Realm, at the vast firmament. With his hands clasped behind his back, he stood steadily atop Xiaotian.
A surge of heroic ambition welled up within him.
’Yes, his own ambition was to reign over the nine heavens and reach the very pinnacle.’
’He knew Xiaotian could definitely accompany him on his path to the pinnacle.’
Master and servant were both brimming with high-spirited ambition.
"That’s right. In the future, we will both stand at the peak of the world, looking down upon the land."
Xiaotian flew for a while.
Soon, he flew to where the Golden-haired Zombie King, the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf, and the other Demon Beasts were temporarily stationed.
ROAR—!
Xiaotian swooped down, his body sweeping across the sky.
"What?"
"Where did this Golden Dragon come from?"
The Golden-haired Zombie King, the Black King Rat, and the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf were all horrified.
They trembled, terrified by Xiaotian’s aura.
Xiaotian was immensely powerful now, his Cultivation approaching the Martial Emperor Realm.
They were simply no match for him.
Xiaotian laughed. "Don’t panic, everyone! It’s me, Xiaotian!"
It chuckled for a moment.
He was happy to be teasing the Golden-haired Zombie King and the others.
Just then, the Golden-haired Zombie King finally recognized him. Xiaotian had turned from brown to gold, and two large bumps had sprouted on his head.
It was a bizarre sight, but also an incredibly ferocious one.
They recognized Xiaotian because their master, Jiang Chen, was standing right on top of his head.
If Xiaotian was a king, then Jiang Chen was the king of kings.
After flying for a bit longer, Xiaotian landed.
The ground boomed upon his landing.
Xiaotian said to Jiang Chen, "Master, next, I’m going to demonstrate a technique for you: my Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon."
Jiang Chen flew down from atop Xiaotian’s head.
Xiaotian immediately let out a great roar.
"Combat State!"
As his voice fell, Xiaotian, who had been over fifty meters long, suddenly began to transform.
His body rapidly shrank until, in the blink of an eye, he took on a humanoid form slightly larger than an average person.
However, the two large bumps remained on his head.
In that instant, Xiaotian’s aura skyrocketed, becoming almost comparable to a Martial Emperor Expert.
And that wasn’t all.
Xiaotian suddenly roared again, "Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon, First Transformation!"
As his voice fell, Xiaotian’s aura surged once more, nearly doubling in intensity.
Although Xiaotian was not a Martial Emperor Expert, it was doubtful that even an ordinary expert at the Martial Emperor Realm could defeat him now.
With a flash in his eyes, Xiaotian slammed a fist into the ground.
BOOM!
In that moment, the very ground of the Dragon-locking Realm shook.
Immediately, spiderweb cracks appeared on the ground.
Xiaotian’s fist had gouged out a deep crater.
The terrifying shockwave from the punch sent even the Golden-haired Zombie King stumbling back several steps before he could regain his footing.
CLAP, CLAP, CLAP...
Jiang Chen immediately started applauding for Xiaotian.
"Excellent! Truly impressive. Xiaotian, your Combat Power is now on par with an expert at the Martial Emperor First Heaven."
Xiaotian let out a smug chuckle.
He withdrew his fist but didn’t revert to his Golden Dragon form, remaining standing there in his humanoid shape.
He looked quite pleased with himself.
"Pretty amazing, right, Master? Haha."
"Once I get out of here, I’ll be able to defeat the Flame Dragon."
The Flame Dragon was the king of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, yet Xiaotian was now so full of confidence that he dared to challenge him.
Jiang Chen shook his head slightly.
’Xiaotian has certainly become an extremely belligerent fighter.’
’And that was only after using the First Transformation of the Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon.’
’If he could use the Ninth Transformation, his Combat Power would become truly terrifying.’
"Alright. Since you’ve broken through, I happen to have a task for you."
’Now that Xiaotian has reached the Peak of Martial Arts Nine Heavens,’ Jiang Chen realized, ’he’s practically comparable to a Martial Emperor Powerhouse when he enters his combat state.’
’Now, I can have Xiaotian kill Wen Shixi for me.’
’If he even kills Wen Shixuan, then Wen Shiren can directly inherit the title of Sovereign.’
Xiaotian immediately nodded. "Master, what is the task?"
As he spoke, Xiaotian’s expression suddenly changed.
He hurriedly shook his head. "Oh, right, Master, my apologies."
"I think... I’m about to break through again. Give me some time. Once I break through to Martial Emperor, I’ll help you."
"I need to find a place to enter closed-door cultivation for my breakthrough."
What?
The Golden-haired Zombie King and the group of Zombies were all completely dumbfounded.
Even the Black King Rat and the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf were stupefied.
’No way... he just broke through to the Peak of Martial Arts Nine Heavens, and now he’s about to break through again?’
’Is he even going to let the rest of us live?’
Jiang Chen felt an urge to cough up blood.
He barely resisted the urge to throttle Xiaotian.
"You’re breaking through again?"
Jiang Chen asked through gritted teeth. The feeling was truly maddening.
Xiaotian was breaking through one level after another, and now he was on the verge of it again. This time, he would go straight to Martial Emperor Cultivation.
This speed was enough to make others weep in despair.
Xiaotian’s endless breakthroughs were quite a blow to Jiang Chen’s ego.
"Ahem, my apologies, Master."
"I don’t know how, but I feel that I’ll be able to break through to Martial Emperor Cultivation very soon."
"Quick, help me find a place. I need to go into seclusion."
Utterly frustrated, Jiang Chen waved his hand. Xiaotian flew off, heading directly for the place where the Blood Dragon had left its inheritance.
It was a secluded place where Xiaotian could break through without being disturbed.
Then, Jiang Chen sealed off the area to let Xiaotian enter his closed-door cultivation in peace.
After finishing, Jiang Chen took a deep breath. ’Xiaotian is just too much of a monster,’ he thought. ’Even more heaven-defying than I am.’
He shook his head slightly.
Of course, Xiaotian’s breakthrough was a good thing.
’If Xiaotian breaks through to Martial Emperor,’ Jiang Chen was certain, ’I could bring him with me and sweep through the entire Fire Sparrow Kingdom.’
The Black King Rat, who had accompanied Xiaotian, was naturally so frustrated he was at a loss for words.
Back on Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, he and the Celestial Brown Ridge Python had occupied territory together. Now, that same python—Xiaotian—was about to reach Martial Emperor Cultivation, while he was still stuck in place.
’Just a mere Martial King Fifth Heaven.’
"Alright, all of you, focus on your Cultivation."
Leaving behind those words, Jiang Chen took one last look at the Dragon-locking Realm, then vanished in a flash.
When he reappeared, he was already back in his residence at the Third Prince’s Mansion.
’By my calculations, it’s about time to seize the high ground.’
Jiang Chen knew he had spent a great deal of time in the Dragon-locking Realm. Upon his return, he hurried straight for the main council hall.
