Yinglong was defeated.

In front of everyone.

Its proud body could not hold on.

It was directly suppressed, retreating to the side.

Zhu Qingyu and the Ice Fairy couldn't help but cover their mouths in astonishment.

They have indeed embarked on the Path of the Extraordinary, becoming Awakened, with considerable talent.

But a dragon, after all, is a legendary being of great significance.

And now it was directly defeated by Lu Yuan, appearing somewhat disheveled.

Currently.

They harbored no doubts in their hearts.

As long as he wished, he could even slay a dragon.

They originally had a high estimate of his combat power, but now it seems it was insufficient; he was truly unfathomable.

At this moment, Lu Yuan advanced once again, his battle intent raging, his internal organs shaking, his skin glowing, his blood surging, dyeing the seawater a golden hue.

"No more, no more." Yinglong, seeing this, couldn't help but shrink its head, continuing, "You are really strong."

This was the truth, as it was sealed by its kind because its potential was enormous.

In terms of combat power, it was one of the best of its generation.

Now having just emerged.

Defeated by a human.

And it was direct suppression, without any tricks.

So Yinglong acknowledged this defeat, and from the start, had never intended a life-or-death confrontation.

"You are not bad either."

Lu Yuan stopped, collecting his aura.

The previous terrifying momentum also disappeared, making him look like an ordinary person.

And what he said was genuinely heartfelt; to endure for so long under his power, Yinglong certainly lived up to its name.

Of course, Lu Yuan also understood the other party just wanted a battle without any other intentions, so from the beginning, he did not plan to seriously harm it.

Thinking of this, he smiled and continued, "Now, can our deal be concluded?"

Naturally, he was talking about exchanging goods for that Blood Pool.

"I'll just give it to you."

Yinglong spoke, "I, Ao Ze, have always admired beings stronger than myself since my birth. Your strength surpasses mine, so the capable deserve it. Moreover, my transformation is complete, and the Blood Pool is useless to me. If you want it, it's yours."

Ao Ze was its name, and it was very generous, directly gifting the Dragon Blood Pool.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded; since it had come to this, there was no need for further courtesy.

Perhaps in the future, there might be an opportunity to incorporate this Yinglong into the Celestial Court, expanding its power.

"Ao Ze? The Four Seas Dragon Race also carries the Ao surname. Is this truly the Four Seas Dragon Palace?"

At this time, Zhu Qingyu and the others heard the key point and couldn't help but ask.

"Why wouldn't it be real? The Four Seas Dragon Race has always existed; it's just that a great change occurred later, and they migrated out of this world." Ao Ze shrank its body to about three meters long, then spoke, obviously knowing a lot.

"A great change?"

Hearing these words, Lu Yuan recalled Shennongjia.

The stone tablet left behind by Human Emperor Shennong also had the words 'great disaster.'

He immediately looked at Yinglong, continuing to ask, "What is this great change you mentioned? Also, you said you were sealed; why did the Dragon Race do this?"

The information he had obtained pointed to one problem, that a great change had indeed occurred.

This might be one of Earth's ultimate secrets, something Lu Yuan wanted to understand.

"The specifics are unclear; a batch of our Dragon Race was left behind."

Yinglong shook his head and explained once more, "In the thousands of years after the Great Extinction of Heaven and Earth, all beings and things were suppressed, with all divine bloodlines having regressed, including myself. Before my father sealed me, he said I was born in the wrong era. Within three years of my birth, I was sealed."

"And it's not just our Dragon Race; many beings in this world migrated to the Outer Realm."

"This Blood Pool is something left by our kind a long time ago."

As it spoke, it glanced at the Golden-winged Roc and the Spiritual Monkey, especially the Golden-winged Roc, with a peculiar look in its eyes.

In mythological stories, the two species are mortal enemies, devouring each other.

Even though Yinglong had never met one before, there was a sense of recognition deep in its bloodline.

Everyone present was slightly stunned upon hearing this, meaning, is this Yinglong only three or four years old?

"What's so strange about it?" the Golden-winged Roc spoke, "I'm only about five or six years old myself."

The Spiritual Monkey nodded; indeed, for most Exotic Beasts with strong bloodlines, age is generally not very high.

Great Extinction of Heaven and Earth?

Lu Yuan once again heard these words.

Combining what Jiang Ningxian said, it made him think of many things.

In ancient times, and even later, there was once a magnificent civilization on Earth, perhaps the mythological era in stories, but for some reason, some human sages suppressed this land themselves.

"Hmm, that's not right." Zhu Qingyu, puzzled, said, "The Great Extinction of Heaven and Earth is said to be done by one of the Five Emperors, Zhuang Xu."

"And according to the records, Zhuang Xu the Great lived less than five thousand years ago."

She found it odd that the other party claimed it was after the Great Extinction of Heaven and Earth.

But at that time, there was already some historical record.

She felt it was somewhat inconsistent with historical facts.

"Some history has been sealed and covered up; otherwise, according to history, many things shouldn't have happened."

The Pure Yang Little Celestial Master spoke, with a very serious tone, revealing clues found in ancient books from the Celestial Master Mansion at Dragon Tiger Mountain.

"Indeed, our Buddhist sect also has related records."

Monk Huikong agreed, believing that the current situation couldn't be explained by history alone.

Lu Yuan fell silent for a moment, contemplating many issues, such as whether historical figures like Guang Chengzi, Laozi, and others truly belonged to that era. Or did they live until then and were simply recorded?

All of this remains unknown. According to Jiang Ningxian, no one can explore the ultimate truth, except perhaps individuals like the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

Additionally, some people originally from Earth migrated out of this world.

For example, the Jiang clan and the Ji clan, now they are coming back.

"It seems you aren't completely ignorant." Yinglong Ao Ze was slightly surprised upon hearing this explanation. It knew that a long time had passed since its era, but exactly how long was unclear.

After all, in both the Dragon Race and the Human Race, it was still considered a child.

"Alright."

Yinglong spoke, looking at Lu Yuan: "Having just come into the world and meeting an opponent like you, I'm quite pleased."

"Once I've completely transformed, my bloodline takes another step up, and my strength greatly increases, I'll find you for another sparring session."

"Now, I've promised someone else and have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave for now."

After saying this, it nodded towards Lu Yuan in greeting.

Then it rushed directly towards the outside.

Being a member of the Dragon Race, walking out of this broken folded space was nothing.

"The way of the world has been severed, all creatures have regressed, and now the means are disappearing, can we evolve again?" Lu Yuan pondered, thinking of his mount, the Golden-winged Roc. It had a Mythical Bloodline, shouldn't be so weak, the root cause stemmed from here.

Also, Yinglong's innate bloodline was suppressed, needing to be purified once more by the Dragon Blood left by its kin.

Indeed, the more things he encountered, the stronger he became, and the thicker the mist grew.

"Alright, take away that Dragon Blood Pool."

Without much thought.

Lu Yuan looked at everyone and said.

This trip to the East Sea Dragon Hall was very smooth.

There was not much danger, and there were various unexpected gains.

Moreover, Zhu Qingyu, Pure Yang Little Celestial Master, and others also got some training.

In the future, they could gradually start to stand on their own.

Combined with the conditions of this world.

He was certain.

The future Celestial Court would surely grow stronger.

After all, now Lu Yuan's gaze was already set on the Deep Space Cosmos.

The Galaxy Star Realm was once incomparably bright, the birthplace of the Ancient Celestial Court.

Even those who walked out from there became dominant forces in the universe, one of the Top 100 Star Realms.

Why can't I recreate the Celestial Court?

And at this moment.

Due to Lu Yuan's command.

Everyone once again entered the Crystal Palace.

The Golden-winged Roc once more displayed its Divine Techniques, swallowing the Blood Pool.

Because Yinglong had used it before, there wasn't much left, but it was still enough for them.

Others, however, continued to search within this fairy mansion to see if there were any other gains.

But unfortunately, other than the palace, there was nothing.

The highest chair was quite nice, the Spiritual Monkey thought since the iron rod couldn't be taken, at least the chair could be. When facing an enemy, throwing out a chair would certainly be unexpected, but it still couldn't move it...

Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh.

The Spiritual Monkey, after all, was still a monkey.

Didn't say much more.

He turned his hand slightly, taking out Fu Xi's Eight Trigrams Map.

Although knowing there might not be much left, he still wanted to try.

A drop of blood fell, and the Eight Trigrams Map began to operate automatically.

Buzz~

And at the next moment.

A tiny bright spot appeared at a particular location.

The Eight Trigrams Map, left by Human Emperor Fu Xi, anything it could sense was at least a Divine Artifact.

Immediately, he didn't hesitate and walked straight over.

The Golden-winged Roc and the Spiritual Monkey saw this.

Indicated to Ice Fairy and others, since there was nothing, they should leave together.

Because they knew, at this time, to leave on their own, everyone has secrets, there was no need to participate.

Pure Yang Little Celestial Master and Monk Huikong had no objections. Lu Yuan was the Master of Heaven, so in other words, they had to follow his orders.

So very quickly.

The entire Crystal Palace was left with only Lu Yuan.

He followed the display of Fu Xi's Eight Trigrams Map to the very center of the palace.

There used to be a Blood Pool here, now taken by the Golden-winged Roc, leaving a radiant floor.

It was paved with separated crystals, equivalent to the floor, and unlike any other place, wouldn't attract anyone's attention.

If not for the Eight Trigrams Map, even Lu Yuan wouldn't have come over.

"Is the thing below here?"

Faced with this, he was a bit at a loss.

This was crafted by the Dragon Race, the material was too special, even if he wanted to move it, he couldn't.

However, Lu Yuan still decided to try, gently placing his palm on the floor.

Buzz~

The next instant.

He felt the blood in his body surging.

Then, the crystal under his hand surprisingly rose automatically.

At this moment, Lu Yuan's expression changed, finally knowing what that item was.

A purple-gold colored ancient and simpler order, emitting a brilliance throughout, exuding an unparalleled majesty, untouchable, carved with two characters: Celestial Emperor!

The second piece, Celestial Emperor's Ancient Order!
