NOVPUBThe corpse opened its eyes and stared at Lu Yun for a long while before finally saying with cracked lips, "Little Yun, where is this?"
"This is the Human Race Tower, I came to rescue you," Lu Yun said in haste.
"Go, let’s go quickly. If they find us," the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire said with a condensed gaze, urging them on.
"There’s no danger anymore, the Clan Elder and Black Dragon are both dead," Lu Yun interrupted him and replied.
"They’re all dead? That’s good," the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay on the ground to begin recovering from his injuries autonomously.
"Take care of him," After reviving the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire, Xu Zimei returned to the seventeenth floor.
The pale-red heart in the flames brightened and dimmed intermittently, the thumping sound of a heartbeat echoing as if true life was being nurtured.
The gestation period of the Blood Lizard heart far exceeded Xu Zimei’s expectations, taking a full month.
Only now the heart had recovered in the refinement of the Divine Dragon Fire, its color shifting from the original pale red toward crimson.
The surface was a fresh red, as if a real heart had just been taken out.
The purple veins and patterns were clearly visible.
Xu Zimei collected the heart and then left the Human Race Tower with Lu Yun and the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire.
Along the way, the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire expressed his gratitude to Xu Zimei.
"I should be leaving too," Xu Zimei said with a smile.
"Brother, are you returning to the human race?" the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire asked.
"Yes, would you like to join?" asked Xu Zimei.
"I think I’ll pass. I want to go see Qin. Staying here in the future isn’t bad either," the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire said with a smile, shaking his head. n𝚘𝚟𝚙u𝚋.co𝚖
After escorting them to the Green Lizard’s village, Xu Zimei did not say much.
He tore open the barriers of the small world with absolute strength, his figure gradually fading into it.
Watching Xu Zimei leave, Lu Yun’s eyes wavered slightly.
"Sometimes, you need to speak up about your feelings," the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire said with a laugh on the side.
"Ragefire Brother, what are you saying? I don’t understand," Lu Yun quickly averted her gaze and replied nervously.
"Some people, once lost, may never be encountered again. You didn’t seize the opportunity," the Heavenly Venerate of Ragefire said.
"I know," Lu Yun replied with a somewhat somber mood.
"But even if I do speak up, what can it change? Do you think he would stay for someone?"
...…
On an autumn afternoon, the breeze was cool.
Layers of formations shrouded the entire Sect Gate of the Realm Emperor Holy Sect.
Endless Spiritual Energy was gathering towards the Formation, where fog encircled, dragons roared and tigers howled, indicating something extraordinary.
The Elders guarding the outer layer had serious expressions on their faces, daring not to relax in the slightest.
Because no one knew when those two Divine Dragons would come again.
The entire Realm Emperor Holy Sect was in a state of readiness.
In the Council Hall of the Realm Emperor Holy Sect, many Elders were gathered.
Sect Master Zhang Tianlin was tapping the side of his chair with his right index finger, a flash of brilliance in his eyes, as he inquired, "How long has it been since all the True Disciples left the Sect in search of the Blood Lizard heart?"
"Reporting back to the Sect Master, it’s been over two months now," an Elder beside him hurriedly replied.
"For such a long time, they either encountered trouble or all died," Zhang Tianlin said, frowning.
"We still don’t know yet, we can only send someone to Ragefire City to check if there’s any news of them," the Crimson King, Huangfu Xuan, replied from below.
"But those two Divine Dragons haven’t appeared again during this period; could it be over?"
"No, we can’t let our guard down until the heart of the Blood Lizard arrives," Zhang Tianlin shook his head and said.
As everyone was discussing, suddenly two high-pitched dragon roars came from a distance.
"They’re here," the complexions of those within the council hall drastically changed, as Zhang Tianlin suddenly stood up and looked outside with a profound gaze.
High above the Holy Sect of the Realm Emperor, one ice and one fire, two Divine Dragons soared into the sky.
The crimson flames burned fiercely, merging with the icy blue frost, as if ice and fire fused, illuminating half the sky.
The two Divine Dragons shook their tails, their massive tails heavily slamming onto the Defensive Array, and with a "boom," the formation began to shake, and small cracks had already appeared on it.
"This won’t do, our formation won’t hold for much longer," said the Realm King, looking somewhat grave upon seeing this scene.
"Follow me to meet the enemy," Zhang Tianlin spoke calmly, "First, channel strength into the formation to stabilize it as much as possible."
The numerous elders of the Holy Sect of the Realm Emperor sat cross-legged, none daring to hold back in the slightest.
They poured all their Spiritual Energy into the Defensive Array, as each person’s energy differed.
When everyone operated their cultivation techniques together, the Spiritual Energy at the edge of the sky appeared like a rainbow, manifesting in an array of different colors.
The vast influx of Spiritual Energy into the formation began to heal those cracks on the surface.
The two Divine Dragons in the sky seemed to become enraged, as they let out a furious roar.
Their enormous bodies spiraled in the firmament, and once again the sky darkened with dense clouds, lightning flashing, and thunderclaps sounding.
The Red Dragon opened its fangs, spitting out a fireball so hot that it seemed to melt the very void from its mouth.
The appearance of the fireball revealed the Red Dragon’s eyes with vertical pupils, and its entire body emitted a majestic dragon’s might.
Waves of dragon flames diffused from around its body, and the fireball absorbed these dragon flames, instantly enlarging dozens of times.
Succeeding this, the dragon wrapped its tail around the fireball, forcefully hurling it downward.
Watching the fireball descend from the sky, almost blocking out the sun with its massive size, the people within the formation had their faces change in alarm.
Even from a distance, they could feel the intense heat within it.
When the fireball struck the Defensive Array like a falling star, an almost ear-splitting explosion sounded.
A wave of searing heat spread in all directions, and more and more cracks densely spread across the formation.
The many elders below had solemn expressions, all exerting their full power to withstand the onslaught.
"I can’t hold on any longer," a difficult shout was heard, and as soon as the words fell, one of the elders was engulfed in flames, turning directly to ashes.
The others, heart pounding with dread, didn’t dare to overextend themselves, and those who sensed danger quickly retreated.
"Let’s all give up, everyone retreat with me to the side, to confront these two Evil Dragons," Zhang Tianlin commanded, realizing they couldn’t hold on any longer.
Once everyone had retreated, the formation, lacking any support, didn’t last a moment and was directly pierced through.
The fireball fell from the sky and seemed ready to swallow the entire earth.
With another explosion, everyone felt the ground shaking, as if in an earthquake, the earth quaking, heavens shaking.
The fireball smashed heavily onto the ground within the formation.
Before Zhang Tianlin and his group could react, they saw the two Divine Dragons circumvent them and soar towards the interiors of the Holy Sect of the Realm Emperor.
"What are they trying to do?" Zhang Tianlin furrowed his brow and instructed, "Don’t stop them for now, follow them."
