Chapter 1408: Chapter 1408 - Return to the Dragon Race

Hermit said, “Back then, there were only two strongest Emperors of the human race, the Eternal Human Emperor and the Fiend Emperor Hatred! Even the Buddha Emperor, Thunder Emperor, Saber Emperor and Sword Emperor were ranked behind them.”

“However, the Fiend Emperor Hatred’s mental demons were too strong. He hated the entire world and was lost in his ways, resulting in his eventual suicide. It was a great pity. If not for the Eternal Human Emperor who suppressed the Emperors of the Primordial Nine Races, the human race would definitely not have won that battle.”

At the mention of the ancient war, the atmosphere on the small boat suddenly turned heavy.

If not for the wise sages and experts of the ancient era who laid the foundation and fought with their blood, the current glory of the human race as well as its flourishing cultivation civilization would not exist!

“Let’s not talk about that anymore,”

Hermit waved it off and sized up Su Zimo. “You’ve changed quite a bit after not seeing you for a couple of years.”

Su Zimo replied, “It was all through fate and coincidence.”

“Your cultivation is still too low,”

Hermit shook his head. “The birth of the two great taboos, the Hou and Dragon Phoenix, in this generation will definitely cause the primordial races to make a huge move!”

“Although you’re a taboo, your cultivation is only at the Conjoint Body realm. Against a Patriarch of the primordial races, you’re helpless, let alone an Emperor of the primordial races!”

Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he asked, “Senior, you mean to say that the primordial races might start a huge battle in Tianhuang Mainland?”

“It’s not a possibility, it’s a certainty,”

Hermit sighed gently. “Initially, this battle might only happen many years later. But now that the two taboos have appeared, even the primordial races can’t sit still!”

“The human race has a long history and many super sects. Given our many years of foundation, can’t we defeat the primordial races?”

Su Zimo furrowed his brows slightly.

“That’s going to be difficult,”

Hermit said, “It’s difficult for humans to go against the primordial races without a peerless talent like the Eternal Human Emperor.”

“It’s still unknown who will be the masters of Tianhuang Mainland,”

Hermit said meaningfully.

After pondering for a moment, he continued, “You’re a Taboo Dragon Phoenix. If you return to the Dragon race, you’ll definitely be protected by them. If you still care about your ties with the human race, I hope that the Dragon race will be able to join forces with the human race against the other primordial races when the battle comes!”

“Don’t worry, senior,”

Su Zimo nodded.

Actually, even without Hermit’s reminder, Su Zimo intended to make the same preparations.

The reason why the Martial Dao Prime Body sent the Kun Peng egg back to Beiming was because he hoped that he could borrow the strength of the Kun race in the future!

“Senior, how’s your combat strength compared to the Human Emperor of the ancient era?”

Su Zimo asked again.

In his opinion, if Hermit could defeat a Patriarch of the Golden Crow race with such ease, the combat strength of the latter must definitely be top-tier among the Emperors!

Hermit smiled and shook his head. “I’m far inferior compared to the Eternal Human Emperor,”

“The birth of the Dragon Phoenix will spread through Tianhuang Mainland before long and even Divine Phoenix Island won’t be able to protect you. You have to head to the Dragon Bone Valley.”

A wary look flashed through Hermit’s eyes. “The Emperor of the Golden Crow race is extremely strong! He’s even stronger than the Golden Crow Emperor of the primordial era! Only the Dragon Bone Valley can protect you!”

“Even you can’t defeat him, senior?”

Su Zimo frowned and asked.

“It’s hard to tell,”

Hermit shook his head. “Furthermore, I can already sense the Heavenly Tribulation. I don’t have much time left in Tianhuang Mainland.”

“If I leave, Divine Phoenix Island will no longer have any Emperor. You’ll be the only one we can rely on if anything happens.”

“Don’t worry, senior!”

Su Zimo said deeply, “As the young master of Divine Phoenix Island, I’ll definitely protect all the living beings of Divine Phoenix Island with all my might!”

“Yes,”

Hermit said, “I’ll tear through space and teleport you to the Dragon Bone Valley. There’s no need for you to return to Divine Phoenix Island.”

The birth of the Dragon Phoenix would definitely cause a huge storm.

The only way Su Zimo could survive was if he hid in the Dragon Bone Valley!

Hermit extended his palm. Without making any motions, he merely grabbed at the void gently.

The void before him suddenly collapsed and a dark passage appeared as a sinister wind gusted within.

A spatial tunnel was formed with a casual tear!

This was equivalent to summoning a Major Transference Talisman!

The casual method of an Emperor was already this shocking!

Su Zimo narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly shocked.

“Go on,”

Hermit nodded slightly.

“Young master, I’ll follow you as well!”

Mo Ying said hurriedly.

Su Zimo shook his head. “No, that’s the Dragon Bone Valley. As a human, it’s inconvenient for you to enter. Don’t worry, we’ll meet again.”

With that said, Su Zimo leaped into the spatial tunnel.

Hermit retracted his palm and the void gradually healed.

“You should head back too,”

He waved to Mo Ying. Thereafter, her body drifted uncontrollably towards Divine Phoenix Island and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Hermit laid down once more with a faint smile and a sinister blood glint in his eyes.

He picked up the green straw hat beside him and covered his face.

…

Dragon Bone Valley.

Suddenly, a gigantic crack appeared in the skies and Su Zimo’s figure descended.

Looking at the familiar surroundings and sensing the aura of the Dragon race, Su Zimo heaved a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, nothing went wrong.

“Hermit, Hermit…”

Su Zimo murmured softly in deep thought.

“Who’s there?!”

Su Zimo’s descent attracted the attention of some patrolling dragons before long.

Many dragons rushed over.

“You are…”

“Young master!”

When the dragons caught sight of Su Zimo, they were stunned for a moment before reacting swiftly and exclaiming.

“The young master is still alive!”

The dragons cheered.

In the battle of Heaven and Earth Valley, although outsiders did not know that Su Zimo was the young master of the Dragon race, the dragons knew everything.

Many dragons were dejected when they heard that Su Zimo was exiled to the void.

Even Long Cang who possessed the bloodline of a five-clawed divine dragon could not feel happy.

Logically speaking, with Su Zimo’s death, he would inherit the position of the young master of the Dragon race smoothly.

However, in his heart, he would rather Su Zimo survive!

That way, he would be able to keep improving and have a goal to catch up to!

Long Mo had returned!

The news spread rapidly through the Dragon Bone Valley.

Long Xi rushed over. The Tyrant Dragon who was once hot-tempered was now laughing and crying with teary eyes.

Su Zimo even caught sight of Solitary Cloud.

Solitary Cloud wore scarlet robes of the Illumination Dragon lineage—it was clear that he was now a part of the Illumination Dragon lineage!

Su Zimo could clearly sense that Solitary Cloud’s dragon bloodline was now extremely pure.

This meant that Solitary Cloud had already broken free from the bloodline of the Flood Dragon and transformed into a True Dragon completely!

“Master!”

Solitary Cloud knelt before Su Zimo and kowtowed.

“Good, very good!”

Su Zimo nodded and waved his sleeves, helping Solitary Cloud up.

In the Dao Inheritance Ground, Solitary Cloud had once risked his life to save Su Zimo. Now that Solitary Cloud had transformed into a True Dragon and obtained an opportunity that was solely his, Su Zimo was delighted as well.

“Long Mo, it’s great that you’re not dead! Hahahaha!”

Right then, Long Cang’s hearty laughter sounded.

He strode over in huge strides and said with a smile, “You’ve returned at the right time. I’ve comprehended another innate divine power. Let’s fight again and I can let you experience it!”
