Chapter 279: The First Scene of Ancient and Modern Times, the Gathering of Three Parties
Dragon Emperor?
A real dragon?
Legendary figure!
The True Dragon Clan has not appeared in the world for more than ten thousand years!
Even the demon race, which has a longer lifespan than humans, has died for many generations, and their memories of the dragon race have long been vague.
Not to mention that the demon race is not keen on leaving behind written heritage, there is a lack of records of the true dragon race, and they only have a superficial understanding of many things.
Faced with this three-piece set that can prove the identity of the Dragon Emperor, many young demons have no idea what it means.
They could only vaguely sense through the crisis warning transmitted through their blood that the person in front of them was not this person. This ferocious red and black dragon was ridiculously powerful and could never be defeated.
But they don't understand the specific situation.
The aquatic monsters knew a little more than they did, after all, the blood connection was there.
There was an ancient rumor among the demon clan that all aquatic creatures in the world were created by the dragon clan - this came from the fact that all aquatic creatures could leap over the Dragon Gate and transform into dragons.
The true situation cannot be verified due to lack of necessary evidence.
But what is certain is that the dragon clan is the emperor respected by all aquatic creatures in the world and the absolute ruler.
This is a mark that is directly engraved into the blood and passed down from generation to generation.
Therefore, when the sense of submission in the blood came up, even the demon god was no exception and knelt down shamefully.
Very clean and neat, without even the slightest hesitation.
Afterwards, after the old dragon Jiao Shengwu confirmed Lu Wenwu's identity as the Dragon King, all the aquatic creatures immediately rushed to the front regardless of everything and became his most loyal supporters.
Lu Wenwu, in the dragon form, nodded slightly, dispersed all the magical powers, and fell straight towards the demon clan's imperial palace.
It was so familiar, like returning home.
In fact, this is indeed the case, it can be said to be one’s own home.
When the Demon Empire still existed, successive Demon Emperors would reserve a palace of the same level for the Dragon Clan, and this rule was set by the first Demon Emperor himself.
During the Demon Empire period, the Dragon Emperor was basically equivalent to the second emperor of the Demon Clan.
The demon cultivators who can sit in this position are very powerful.
Without the dragon clan's approval, no one dared to usurp the throne and become the demon clan's emperor.
If ten years of hard study can still achieve something, it may be more than the accumulation of three generations.
If you want to surpass the accumulation of the dragon clan from the ancient times to the present for countless tens of thousands of years with just one life, that is pure wishful thinking.
Even if the dragons don't care at all, or even don't come for hundreds of years, we still have to have the right attitude.
It's like giving a gift to a leader.
You can do without leadership, but you can’t live without it.
Inside the Demon Clan's Imperial Palace and the Dragon Emperor's Hall, Lu Wenwu looked at the fanatical water creatures and the group of demon gods who seemed hesitant to speak, and smiled and shook his head.
Before coming here, I did think that the identity of Dragon King would be very useful.
But I didn’t expect it to be so useful.
It seems that after the collapse of the demon empire and the continuous decline of the dragon clan, the demon clan is truly in disarray.
Now that there is a person who can make decisions and is recognized by everyone, there is not even one person who comes out to oppose or question him.
If this happened to humans, there would be bloodshed.
If the ancestor who had been an emperor was resurrected, the first thing the people in power would do would definitely not be to prepare a bed for him to welcome him, but to push him back into the coffin and nail the coffin lid shut.
The coffin was sealed with cement and lead plates, and the body was buried with yellow intestines and inscriptions.
The dead ancestors are the best ancestors.
If you come back to life, won’t I have less power?
Even if you are real, you are fake!
Even if you are really resurrected, you have to die again!
Fortunately, this is the demon tribe.
Before the treasure collapsed, the old dragon bowed respectfully and asked: "Your Majesty, why did you come to the Imperial Palace this time?"
Lu Wenwu didn't hide anything and said calmly, "I hereby order all members of the Demon God Alliance to arrive at the Dragon Emperor Palace for an audience before sunset. Those who violate this order will be executed along with their entire clan."
Giving orders as the current Dragon Emperor is not considered as overstepping one's authority.
His current status, position and strength do qualify him to issue such an order.
What's more, after the collapse of the Demon Empire, the Dragon Emperor could be regarded as the head of the Demon God Alliance.
It’s just that the True Dragon Clan has always been too lazy to attend meetings and exercise their power.
"I will follow your majesty's orders!" The old dragon immediately agreed.
After paying his respects, he turned around and waved his hand. Dozens of figures immediately disappeared from the palace and went to inform the demon gods who were included.
Lu Wenwu added, "Notify the guards along our borders and the roads leading to our ancestral home. The Righteous Path's Saintly Confucian and the Demonic Path's Demonic Lord Xuehe will be heading to the Imperial Palace together before sunset. Don't stop them; just provide the necessary guidance."
An expression of astonishment appeared on the old dragon's face.
But as expected of a thousand-year-old demon, his reaction and mentality are top-notch.
He immediately suppressed his surprise, didn't ask any more questions, just nodded and assigned the work again.
At the same time, he also suppressed the restless monsters in the hall, as well as those demon gods who had complaints about Lu Wenwu.
Lu Wenwu didn't care much about it.
It is normal for these demon gods in the late stage of transformation to have opinions.
Suddenly, a leader who had not been seen in generations appeared here and gave orders. It was a great honor for these demons and gods to be able to stand here.
Lu Wenwu didn't have too many other requests.
I can only say that the identity of Dragon Emperor is really useful.
The old Dragon Emperor's status in Lu Wenwu's heart was once again elevated to a higher level.
Without this identity widely recognized by generations of demon clans, it would be almost impossible to integrate the scattered demon clans with a human body.
The difficulty is no less than letting Tyson fight Ultraman Leo alone.
Lu Wenwu glanced at the old dragon, who lowered his head. "You could have already attempted to ascend, so why are you still here? You are nearing your end, your combat power and cultivation are declining, and your future is almost cut off."
When these words were spoken, all the demons and gods gasped.
Surprised eyes were cast on the old dragon.
If Lu Wenwu hadn't mentioned it, they would have no idea that it was so powerful and hidden so deeply.
Being able to summon thunder tribulations is already so terrifying!
Haven’t you seen that in order to take this half step, the Sky Fire Demon God was imprisoned for thousands of years and even lost his body.
The old dragon laughed and replied, "Your Majesty, I am too kind. I was already old and frail when I reached this stage. Even if I could forcibly summon the heavenly tribulation, the success rate would be less than 30%. If I die, the Demon God Alliance will start fighting among themselves again. I am really worried about these little guys."
To others, this sounds like Versailles.
Less than 30%?
A success rate of over 20% is already ridiculously high!
How many people don’t even have a 10% success rate when advancing to the God Transformation stage!
As for the second half of the sentence, most of them agreed.
Now the Demon God Alliance is basically led by the old dragon, and it has always held the position of the grand elder.
It is powerful, old, and of high seniority. Currently, all the members of the Demon God Alliance are considered to be the younger generations who grew up under its care. Most of them have also received its teachings and advice, and are grateful for its support.
If it were to die at the end of its life, there would be no one who could convince the public.
Everyone's cultivation strength is about equal, and there are a lot of people of the same generation.
What else can be done to determine the winner without fighting?
The internal strife among the demon clan's high-level officials made the already precarious situation of the demon clan even worse.
As one of the few demon gods with a strong sense of responsibility among the demon clan, the old dragon just kept dragging it on.
He waited until his peak period had passed and his combat power declined, but he did not try to challenge the heavenly tribulation.
"It's a pity for you to be like this."
Lu Wenwu sighed slightly, and with a wave of his dragon claw, the projection of the Dragon Gate suddenly appeared outside the hall, causing countless aquatic creatures to shout and scream.
After inheriting the throne of Dragon Emperor, he had never completely restarted Hualongmen.
One is the issue of energy consumption, and the other is that now his elder brother is the only one left in the Dragon Clan, and he really does not have the energy to manage it, so many functions need to be operated manually.
Therefore, many aquatic creatures can sense the existence of Hualongmen.
But if Lu Wenwu didn't nod, they couldn't proceed with the dragon transformation trial.
Now seeing the old dragon like this, he suddenly felt sorry.
So he revealed the Dragon Gate and completely restarted it, wanting to lend him a helping hand.
If one can cross the Dragon Gate, refine the dragon blood, and condense the dragon body, he will be able to return to the peak and possess the power to break through the heavenly calamity.
"Let's give it a try." Lu Wenwu said.
The old dragon took a deep breath, forced himself to suppress the excitement in his heart, and saluted for the third time under the envious gazes of countless aquatic creatures.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your generous gift!"
Lu Wenwu waved his dragon claws and said, "You have worked hard for many years and have made great contributions. This is what you deserve."
The old dragon bowed again, adjusted his aura to its peak, then strode out of the hall with his head held high, transformed into his original form, and soared towards the Dragon Gate.
At this moment, he felt that his blood, which had long been cold due to years of boring life, was boiling again!
The passionate dragon roared above the demon clan’s imperial palace.
A proud dragon fights against the waves, competing with the sky for its life. Amidst the wind and clouds, lightning and thunder, it rushes towards the Hualong Gate standing above the nine heavens.
The eyes of the other aquatic creatures looking at Lu Wenwu quickly changed from eager to fanatical, and the heat seemed to melt him.
Lu Wenwu glanced at the backstage of Hualongmen and marked several monsters.
The marked monsters immediately felt as if they were chosen, and felt as if they could transform at any time, just like summoning thunder tribulation to advance to breaking the mirror.
Everyone's face was filled with joy.
Those who were not chosen had clearly sensed something and were visibly disappointed.
"After the Jiao Shengwu Trial is over, you will all try it in order of your cultivation." Lu Wenwu said, "It's not that I'm heartless for not selecting you, it's just that you haven't reached the standard yet. This is the iron rule set by the Dragon Ancestor, and I have no right to change it."
"Besides, there are thousands of paths, all of which can lead to enlightenment. There's no need to pin all your hopes on becoming a dragon. The dragon clan's path may not be suitable for all demon cultivators. If you wish, you may go and pay your respects outside the temple."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
All the demons agreed with a roar, their faces filled with joy, and they ran out of the hall in a swarm of laughter.
Without the presence of the elder, the old dragon, and with the Dragon King Lu Wenwu looking very easy-going, the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
Only a handful of members of the Demon God Alliance remained in the hall, staring at Lu Wenwu in silence.
They didn't dare to ask, and Lu Wenwu was too lazy to explain now.
Just say it once when everyone is gathered.
When those great demons who had received the notice and arrived here one after another saw this somewhat fragmented scene.
There was a burst of exclamations outside the hall, and it was extremely lively.
Several demon gods and the Dragon Emperor in the hall stared at each other, and the atmosphere was weird.
Then
Then, after performing all kinds of strange rituals, they became part of this strange atmosphere.
This scene continued until Jiao Shengwu successfully transformed into a dragon and returned to the hall with the blessings of countless demon cultivators.
The high-spirited old dragon first thanked Lu Wenwu for his gift, and then explained to his colleagues what had just happened.
While waiting, Lu Wenwu, who had not yet fully adapted to the dragon form, changed back into human form.
Maomao also separated from his body and returned to its majestic form that was several meters tall, lying behind Lu Wenwu and serving as a cushion for him.
This action caused the atmosphere in the hall, which had just calmed down, to explode again.
Before the old dragon could say anything, the radical members who had arrived knelt down.
They immediately rushed to pledge their loyalty to Lu Wenwu.
Damn it, the Tyrannosaurus Demon Lord is the modern Dragon Emperor!
Dragon Emperor!
Is there such a good thing?
Today the demon race must rebuild their country, and we will immediately support the Tyrannosaurus Demon Lord to become the founding emperor of the new generation of the demon empire!
This intense enthusiasm reached its climax when the Blood River Demon Lord came with several demon gods and performed the disciple ceremony.
The Demonic Path has become one of our own! ?
Damn, double happiness!
What the hell is the Immortal Dao Alliance now? Let’s kill that son of a bitch!
Now, even the conservatives could no longer sit still and began to secretly convey messages to the old dragon, urging him to talk to Lu Wenwu about rebuilding the demon empire.
Jiao Shengwu could only smile bitterly.
What the hell is going on?
Even among the demons who have cultivated to the level of becoming a god, those who have brains are still a minority.
This person in front of him could use the uncrowned king of the Demonic Path as his younger brother, was a Dragon Emperor himself, and could even order the leader of the Immortal Path Alliance around.
Do they really envy our position as the demon king?
We don’t have that kind of capital!
Lu Wenwu remained silent and did not explain why he gathered everyone together. He just said that they would talk together after the righteous side arrived.
Helplessly, the old dragon could only change the topic to other aspects and have some exchanges with the Blood River Demon Lord.
Generally speaking, the communication between the demon cultivators and the Blood River Demon Lord and others was relatively harmonious.
This is probably because the killing between the two sides is in line with the law of the jungle, and everything is equal.
but
When Saint Hengru, along with Lord Kongluo, Lord Wuliang Jian and others appeared here just before sunset, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
The originally warm atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The demons and the evil spirits showed great hatred towards the Immortal Alliance, and the undisguised murderous intent continued to brew in the hall.
It was like the Hongmen Banquet.
As soon as Lu Wenwu throws the cup, everyone around him will rush over and hack them to death with their swords!
Of course, compared to the hatred between the demon cultivators and the devil cultivators, the emotional fluctuations of the people of the Immortal Dao Alliance are the greatest.
Wuliang Jianzun was almost frightened to death, with a look of fear on his face.
"You! You are actually the current Dragon Emperor!? Why didn't you tell me earlier!?"
