"Although we have deciphered the so-called thirty-six Extraordinary ridians, the Black Dragon’s mother suffered greatly as a subject of experintation, leading us down many wrong paths, until her insides were utterly damaged," the elder in blue robes sighed.
"The Black Dragon King we see today was raised by us, and his actions were also influenced by our guidance."
"I don’t quite understand why you would let the Black Dragon rule this world," Xu Zii shook his head.
"You know, your human race has always coveted us, the lizard tribe; our lizard hearts can often fetch a good price in the outside world.
What’s even more detestable is that your humans have bribed so of us, and a portion of the lizard tribe actually betrayed us, providing intelligence to the human race," the elder in blue robes said hatefully.
"The Heaven and Earth Divine Stone has always been a great secret within our clan, related to our future. Hence, apart from us four Clan Elders and the Black Dragon, no one else in our tribe knows about it.
Thousands of years ago, a traitorous lizard stealthily ca here, stole the Cultivation Technique we created, the Extraordinary ridian Manual, and eventually escaped.
This is also how your human race ca to possess it; otherwise, the technique would never have leaked.
That incident infuriated us to such an extent that we decided to seal off the entire small world, waiting until we could unravel the secret of the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone before allowing freedom again."
"Exactly," another elder in red robes continued, "but the order to seal the small world faced opposition from many of our tribespeople, who did not wish to live like frogs at the bottom of a well, cut off from the outside world.
We feared that these lizards would reveal the news of the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone to the humans, which would lead to great trouble.
But as Clan Elders, we also couldn’t just kill those who opposed, as that would surely cause public outrage and panic.
So, we ca up with the plan for the Black Dragon King, letting it rule this world while we controlled everything from the shadows."
Lu Yun seed incredulous upon hearing this information.
The pain that had afflicted the lizard tribe for a thousand years was actually orchestrated by the Clan Elders themselves.
"Do you know how our tribespeople have lived all these years?" Lu Yun roared as he questioned.
"I know, I must admit that sotis the Black Dragon, driven by hunger, made you gather Purple Wisteria flowers for it.
So of the Black Dragon Guards abused their power for personal gain, but we have already restrained this behavior as much as possible.
On a larger scale, as long as you follow the Black Dragon’s orders, you would never be hard," the elder in green robes shook his head in response.
"For the future of our tribe, this was the only way we could take.
Once the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone is opened, our tribe could soar to great heights, and every one of you could transform into dragons.
These grievances will eventually be repaid."
At this point, the elder in green robes seed downcast.
He looked at Xu Zii; everything had been going according to plan, but Xu Zii’s arrival had ruined it all.
The tribe had invested so much effort in the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone, and now it seed they were dood to beco re wedding dresses for others.
"What about Ragefire Brother, what have you done to him?" Lu Yun asked loudly.
"That man from a thousand years ago?" the elder in green robes replied.
"He was an anomaly; naturally, we wouldn’t let him leave this place.
He is imprisoned in the Human Race Tower; you can go see for yourself. We haven’t paid attention to his life or death."
Having said that, the elder in green robes looked at Xu Zii, saying, "Divine King, sir, we have told you all that you wanted to know without omitting a single detail.
Could you perhaps spare our lives?"
"I may consider not slaughtering the entire lizard tribe, seeing as they haven’t offended , but the four of you old fellows still have to be eliminated," Xu Zii waved his hand nonchalantly.
"You’re going back on your word," the elder in yellow robes said, his face changing as he pointed at Xu Zii and shouted.
"As a Divine King, whose words are law and vows are as solid as nine sacred tripods, how can Your Excellency lightly go back on your word," said the blue-robed elder anxiously.
"When did I agree? I only said I would consider it," Xu Zii shook his head.
His right hand fell, Divine Might vast and boundless, bringing with it overwhelming presence to suppress everything below.
"Your Excellency, please hold back. We know how to break the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone. Killing won’t get it for you," the blue-robed elder hurriedly shouted.
"A bunch of trash, ten thousand years and still you haven’t penetrated its secrets. Besides, without you, I can manage on my own," Xu Zii said coldly.
As his great palm descended, the snow mountain was almost leveled to the ground.
With Xu Zii’s strength, it was entirely possible to obliterate the four Clan Elders, not even leaving behind remains.
However, he needed to fuse the heart of the Blood Lizard, so naturally, he couldn’t be so thorough in his killings.
Xu Zii’s strike still had so restraint; he only suppressed the four people in place so they couldn’t move.
Seeing this scene, the Yellow Lizards on the ground all knelt, watching Xu Zii with fear.
At this mont, the Black Leopard and Black Python were already killed, and the Black Dragon King lay on the side of the snow mountain with severe injuries.
Xu Zii walked over slowly, looking at the yellow-robed elder, and directly excavated his heart.
"Demon, you demon," the yellow-robed elder scread in agony.
After extracting the heart of the Yellow Lizard, Xu Zii approached the blue-robed elder.
The blue-robed elder had cald down considerably. Looking at Xu Zii, he said, "We are utterly convinced by our defeat. But before we die, can Your Excellency tell your na, so I may die with that knowledge?"
"Na?" Xu Zii shook his head and said, "I have no na, just a Divine King. Why would I need a na if I am not a Great Emperor?"
"Great Emperor? Is that an even more supre existence?" asked the blue-robed elder with a hint of longing.
As Xu Zii extracted his heart, he nodded.
......
He placed the two hearts and the previously fused heart of the Fire Lizard together, then ca before the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone.
Previously, opening the thirty-six Extraordinary ridians had been extrely difficult, but the appearance of the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone gave him hope.
But the precondition was that he could completely break through the exterior layer of stone.
With a sweep of his right hand, the Creation Force within him surged like a raging river, rolling forth, and lifted the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone into his True Fate World.
At first, the Divine Stone resisted, but ultimately, under absolute power, it began to move bit by bit, flying into Xu Zii’s Divine Continent.
The mont the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone entered, Xu Zii imdiately summoned the Chaos Pearl.
The Chaos Pearl, traversing through eons, slowly flew out from the depths of the Endless Void.
The Chaos Pearl circled around the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone once, and eventually, a colorless light of void emanated from it.
Falling upon the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone.
Feeling the irradiance of this force, the previously dormant Heaven and Earth Divine Stone finally began to react.
It started to tremble and shake.
A faint rumbling noise ca from within as the outer layer of stone began to fall off bit by bit.
With the falling of the stone layers, the entire Divine Stone’s trembling grew more intense.
Brilliant light began to radiate from within, bit by bit.
