1557 Chronicles of the Immortal Monarch(2)
"Sworn enemies with the Great One? Now that's an achievent one can brag about." Xi ili chuckled at this information.
The Great One was a supre entity that stood at the pinnacle of the world. To be noticed by him was an honor beyond asure, and to be considered a sworn enemy was a mark of unparalleled distinction. Of course, whether that was a good thing or not was debatable.
"What do you think caused the fight?" Xi ili looked at Yuan.
He shrugged, "I can't imagine. From my few encounters with him, I can tell that he's a very prideful and fulfilled individual. I cannot imagine soone like him would fight over sothing simple."
Xi ili then said, "I always thought the Dragons of Origin were close to each other since they were the first dragons to co into existence and might see each other as siblings, but I guess I was too naive."
"Don't siblings tend to argue with each other?"
Yuan, drawing from his own experiences, mused, "Although most of my ti with Yu Rou was pleasant, there were monts when we had fought in the past. So, I would understand it if the Dragons of Origin had similar experiences."
"Sibling fights, huh? I totally understand. I am always butting heads with Murong." Xi ili chuckled.
She continued reading the next scroll a mont later.
"After securing the Dragon Clan's approval, the Immortal Monarch set his sights on the Heavenly White Tiger Clan, a formidable yet relatively small clan renowned for their ferocity and tumultuous nature. Ranked as the seventh most powerful clan, their influence belied their size. The males, in particular, were notorious for their insatiable lust, a trait embedded deeply within their bloodline, which often led them into conflict with other clans."
"Although the females were not as lustful as the males, they were known to go to extre lengths to acquire a partner once they fancied soone. Due to their nature, they did not make a good first impression, and the entire clan received a massive beating from Dragon Goddess Yeyou when the males tried to go after her and the females tried to get overly friendly with the Immortal Monarch."
"Their leader, the Heavenly White Tiger God, was particularly affected. He was beaten so severely that he lost all sexual desire, becoming as pure and chaste as a monk. He would also beco the fifth of the Nine Divine Supres."
"Che. The Heavenly White Tigers." Xi ili sucked her teeth in an annoyed manner after being reminded of her encounter with Bai Xutao.
"The Dragon Goddess should've just killed all of them back then," she casually comnted.
She looked at Yuan and continued, "By the way, how's Feng Feng's recovery?"
"I've been feeding her my blood almost every day. Her appearance's changed a lot, but I still don't know when she'll return."
"I see… Hopefully, she'll return to us soon." Xi ili said before returning to the scroll.
"During his campaign to receive the approval of all major beast clans, the Immortal Monarch would occasionally hunt the surviving demons that had managed to flee the war."
"Demons, huh? I never got to see one. They must be all gone by now, right? What a pity." Xi ili muttered.
Yuan smiled and said, "You should be glad that you never got to experience their disgusting presence. Unfortunately, demons still exist in this world—and mine. They're just in hiding now."
"Have you seen one?" she then asked.
He nodded, "Yes, and more than just one, unfortunately."
"Then did you fight them? They're supposedly immortal—with an indestructible body."
"Their body is definitely destructive. They just have insane recovery, so any damage they take would instantly recover, and unless you get rid of their entire being in one go, they could fully regenerate even from a small chunk of flesh."
"The only reliable thod of getting rid of them would be demon-sealing techniques and sacred flas. Unless you have one of these abilities, you don't want to et a demon."
"I'll keep that in mind," she said.
She picked up another scroll and continued, "After traveling for hundreds of years, the Immortal Monarch t the sixth of the Nine Divine Supre, a powerful divine beast that did not belong to any clan—the Divine Yin Yang Crane."
"The Divine Yin Yang Crane was a one-of-a-kind mythical being said to bring imnse luck to anyone for the rest of their life if they are lucky enough to see it, and most people live their whole life not seeing it, including immortals that have lived for millions of years. Yet, the Divine Yin Yang Crane had personally appeared before the Immortal Monarch and requested to follow him."
"The Divine Yin Yang Crane, huh? This is my first ti hearing about such a creature." Xi ili comnted afterward.
" too," Yuan said.
"Is this information helping you regain your mories?" she then asked.
"No, nothing's coming up."
"Maybe you'll recall sothing after hearing a little more. We still have thousands of scrolls to go through, after all."
She moved on to the next scroll.
"The seventh to join the Nine Divine Supres was the Celestial Turtle, a divine beast said to have the strongest and most durable body in the Divine Heaven. The Celestial Turtle has a massive body that was many tis larger than the sun, and due to its size, it could only live in the starry sky."
"Rumors say that the Immortal Monarch had built a ho for himself and the other Divine Supres sowhere on the back of the Celestial Turtle, but nobody could confirm this rumor."
"The eighth of the Nine Divine Supre was the Shadow Dweller, a divine beast that can enter and traverse shadows. Not much is known about this Divine Supre due to its lack of presence."
"The ninth and final of the Nine Divine Supre is unknown. Nobody but the other Divine Supres and the Immortal Monarch himself have seen the Ninth Divine Supre's beast form." Xi ili closed the scroll.
"There's not much information about the Nine Divine Supres here. Maybe they have their own category," she said afterward.
