The old Dragon King was filled with shock and rage. Before he could react, the seawater began to surge violently, and in the distance, thunder and lightning grew ever closer.
What, is someone about to undergo a tribulation at this time?
His mind raced, but it was not within his calculations. The lightning at sea intensified, with huge bolts of lightning striking the water, causing the sea to churn violently. The little sea monsters hid in their caves, trembling with fear.
The one who started all of this was Wei Jiao. After she threw the lotus seed out, it took root on the ground.
The tender green shoots grew rapidly, and after the first graceful lotus leaf unfolded in the dragon tomb, the spiritual energy was abundant, and the glowing lotus leaf swayed slightly. The dew on the leaf gradually condensed and grew larger, eventually dripping down and causing ripples to spread out, until a whole expanse of lotus flowers and leaves appeared in the entire underwater dragon tomb.
All of this happened in an instant. After the lotus flowers covered the entire seabed, the seabed shook violently, the abyssal rifts continued to widen, and black boulders fell one after another, but they were all separated by an unseen force and did not affect the lotus wonderland in front of Wei Jiao.
A ball of light rose from the center of the lotus flower, growing larger and larger until it encompassed the entire underwater dragon tomb before shrinking continuously. Wei Jiao and the old dragon were also included within it. They both felt an unprecedented surge of spiritual energy. The light barrier became increasingly condensed, and a golden dragon pattern emerged on it, constantly swimming and slowly taking on a physical form.
A dragon unlike any in the world appeared before them.
Although it was only a small dragon, about the length of a chopstick, its overwhelming dragon might made Wei Jiao's legs tremble uncontrollably. He only managed to stay upright with the old dragon's support.
"Hmph, you can't even stand in front of me. With this level of ability, you think you can be my master? You're overestimating yourself."
No one is your master.
Once the little dragon's oppressive aura lessened, Wei Jiao straightened up.
"It seems the seal here has been broken. We can leave now. You can stay here and wait for your ideal, powerful master."
"Since the tall girl next to her refused, your strength is barely enough."
"Small, ugly, weak, and stupid," the black dragon said disdainfully.
"Ahhh, are you talking about me? You ignorant creature, do you even know who I am? If you knew who I was, you'd be kneeling down and begging me to come with you."
The little dragon transformed into a tiny person, with a red rope tied to his right hand, from which hung a golden lotus seed. He stood with his hands on his hips, looking imperiously arrogant. "Hey, I haven't finished yet! Where are you going? If you miss me, you'll regret it for the rest of your lives! Hey, wait for me!"
The seal was broken, and the prisoner, of course, couldn't wait to escape. He saw two black dragons, one large and one small, swimming straight upwards. Seeing that no one cared about them, the little boy could only stomp his feet and follow them.
Dark clouds rolled in from the sky, and lightning flashed closer and closer. As soon as Wei Jiaojiao appeared on the sea, a bolt of silver lightning struck her.
This was originally her tribulation of lightning as she transformed from a jiao (a type of dragon) into a long (another type of dragon). It took place in the Qingleng Abyss, a place where even tribulations of lightning could not reach. So, when she came out today, her tribulation had arrived.
This tribulation lightning was meant to temper her body, and she should have accepted it, but she didn't have time to worry about that now; she had to find her father and mother as soon as possible.
However, the lightning struck very quickly. She couldn't dodge two or three bolts in time, and her skin was torn open. The pain, which came from the depths of her soul, made her revert to her original form and roll around in the sea of clouds.
This tribulation should be number two nine. If all eighteen heavenly lightning bolts strike, she will probably be unable to use her powers to find her parents for a long time. Normally, demons need to be well-prepared and have someone protect them when they undergo tribulation.
At this moment, a loud dragon roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and an even larger black dragon rose from the sea, circled in the sky, and spat out purplish-black dragon flames at the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess.
Although the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess were powerful immortals in Heaven, they could not withstand the dragon flames of Yinglong. Their bodies were destroyed instantly, and although their souls escaped, they could only be reincarnated in the underworld to cultivate again. Only after attaining enlightenment could they be re-ranked among the immortals. This was their fate.
Everything in the universe has its own destiny.
"Why didn't you dodge when they hit you? Did you leave your brain in the Abyss of Coldness and not bring it with you?"
He deeply resented the East Sea Dragon Palace and the spirit tree formation that had sealed him for tens of thousands of years, so he went to completely destroy those four trees and then wreaked havoc on the East Sea Dragon Palace before finally stopping.
At first, he didn't pay attention to the thunder and lightning. Later, after finishing his own business, he came out and saw Wei Jiao covered in blood. He was furious and then the previous incident happened.
"Too fast, we couldn't dodge in time. Senior, let's leave here. The dragons of the East Sea will not let this go."
"Hmph, so what if they won't give up? They've kept me locked up for so long, I'd like to see who dares to stand in their way."
The Black Dragon Spirit had already transformed into human form. He stood with his hands behind his back, and golden patterns faintly flowed on his black clothes.
Just then, the clouds and rain cleared, and the sunlight cast a hazy glow on the sea. Wei Jiao couldn't tell if it was sunrise or sunset, or how long it had been since she had seen the sun. Her eyes stung, so she closed them to calm herself.
The little golden dragon was startled by what had just happened and now felt that the outside world was extremely dangerous. Its pale face clung to Wei Jiao's sleeve.
Wei Jiao spat out two dull-colored dragon pearls from his mouth and infused them with spiritual power.
If the owner of the Dragon Ball is still alive, it will establish a connection with the owner, and Wei Jiao will be able to find her parents through this connection.
However, the Dragon Ball had been living inside Wei Jiao's body for over a hundred years, and they were related by blood, so even though Wei Jiao kept injecting spiritual power into it, the Dragon Ball did not react in any special way.
Wei Jiao felt a growing sense of fear, and as time passed, this fear intensified.
"Sigh, I thought you'd become smarter and I'd look at you with new respect, but it seems you still have a lot to grow."
As he spoke, the Black Dragon Spirit injected a vast amount of spiritual power into Wei Jiao's body, and took out a piece of Black Dragon Scale and said to Wei Jiao, "Leave the small fish and shrimps of the East Sea to me. You go and find your parents. After I finish cleaning up here, I will go into seclusion for a while. If you need anything, use this piece of Black Dragon Scale."
Just then, the sea began to roll again, and as far as the eye could see, there were aquatic soldiers and generals.
The Dragon King of the East Sea, standing at the highest point in the sky, glared angrily at the two people before him, saying through gritted teeth, "You actually managed to escape."
"I just said I was going to deal with you, and you delivered yourselves to my doorstep. Since you knew I was out, you still dared to stop me. It seems you have quite the nerve! It's been years since I've eaten any live creature. How about I have some to go with my wine? Haha!" The Black Dragon Spirit changed his self-reference, acting like an old man.
