Chapter 279 - Chapter 279

The Yuan Gate Three Little Kings looked up in shock at the scene before them. The Azure Dragon, bathed in thunder, was like a god in charge of heavenly punishment, its mighty power filling them with fear.

Especially after seeing the Devouring Ancestor Symbol and the Great Desolate Scripture appear at the same time, the Yuan Gate Three Little Kings completely panicked.

What a fearsome reputation the Great Desolate Scripture had! Back then, Zhou Tong relied on this Martial Arts, coupled with the Space Ancestor Symbol, to kill their Yuan Gate's Great Elder from two generations ago, ultimately forcing the Sect Leader to personally take action to subdue Zhou Tong.

Although the current Lin Dong didn't have Zhou Tong's strength back then, they were far inferior to the Great Elder from two generations ago.

Although Lin Dong didn't have the Space Ancestor Symbol, he had the Devouring Ancestor Symbol in his hand. Compared to the Space Ancestor Symbol, the Devouring Power of the Devouring Ancestor Symbol complemented the Great Desolate Scripture even more.

Immediately, the Yuan Gate Three Little Kings' expressions turned solemn, and the Demonic Qi within their bodies surged out frantically, forming three enormous phantoms above their heads.

"Yuan Emperor Canon, Yuan Emperor True Body!"

"Spirit Emperor Scripture, Spirit Emperor True Body!"

"Thunder Emperor Canon, Thunder Emperor True Body!"

As one illusory figure after another emerged, powerful and ancient auras emanated from the three figures.

Especially when the third illusory figure appeared, it felt as if the thunder in this world instantly surged, and countless thunderbolts descended from the thunderclouds, as if celebrating the return of an ancient powerhouse.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Endless thunder rumbled on the sea, like war drums being struck. The deafening sound of thunder was incessant, startling everyone.

Lin Dong, deep within the thunderclouds, couldn't help but be taken aback. He could freely traverse the thunderclouds because they were created by the Thunder Ancestor Symbol, containing a trace of the Ancestor Symbol's divine might. With the Ancestral Stone's assistance, the power of thunder would basically not harm him, and with the Devouring Ancestor Symbol protecting him, he had nothing to fear.

But just now, when the Little Thunder King unleashed the Thunder Emperor True Body, Lin Dong clearly felt that the surrounding thunder had a trace of resonance, and was somewhat more repelled towards him.

"Hiss, could it be that the Yuan Gate's Thunder Emperor Canon was created by the Thunder Emperor, the controller of the Thunder Ancestor Symbol back then?"

An extremely bold idea instantly popped up in Lin Dong's mind. Yan heard this and was silent for a moment before nodding in agreement.

"It's very possible. There are originally few powerhouses who cultivate the power of thunder. That Thunder Emperor dared to use thunder as his title and proclaimed himself the Thunder Emperor, so he definitely has no small attainments in the way of thunder, and his strength is definitely not ordinary, which is very consistent with the controller of the Thunder Ancestor Symbol."

"Moreover, as the controller of the Ancestor Symbol, he is naturally an enemy of the Demon Prison. Back then, the fall of the Thunder Ancestor Symbol's controller was very likely the work of the Demon Prison, just like the Great Desolate Sect, and the Yuan Gate is a lackey of the Demon Prison, so it is not surprising to obtain the Martial Arts inheritance of the Thunder Ancestor Symbol's controller."

Yan analyzed logically, and the more he spoke, the uglier his face became, and there was a surge of anger brewing in his heart.

Killing the Ancestor Symbol's controller, and then handing over the controller's Martial Arts to their lackeys, using it to deal with the common people of the continent guarded by the Ancestor Symbol's controller, this was simply killing someone and punishing their heart, this was a huge insult!

Not only did Yan think of this, but even Lin Dong also thought of this, and his face became even more grim.

Mo Luo, who was watching the battle from the side, had flames bursting out of his eyes. If he hadn't promised to let Lin Dong take action earlier, everyone felt that Mo Luo would have already couldn't help but personally take action and tear the Yuan Gate Three Little Kings to pieces.

The Little Thunder King below, after feeling the resonance of the majestic power of thunder above the sky, had a bit more smile on his face. Although Lin Dong had the Devouring Ancestor Symbol and the Great Desolate Scripture to help him, his realm was still lower than theirs after all, and now, this place had become his home ground, he didn't believe that he still couldn't take down Lin Dong.

"Hahaha, Lin Dong, prepare to die!"

The Little Thunder King laughed out loud, at this time, the Little Thunder King was already overwhelmed by the sudden surprise after feeling the divine might of the vast power of thunder, and ignored Mo Luo who was watching coldly from the side.

Only to see that the Little Thunder King formed hand seals with both hands, and then, the Thunder Emperor True Body behind him slowly raised its wide palm, and then, slammed it down fiercely towards the direction where Lin Dong was.

However, the scene that Little Thunder King had envisioned, where he controlled the thunderbolt, did not appear. Those thunderous powers that were drawn in by Little Thunder King seemed to have their own ideas and did not act with him.

Just as Little Thunder King was puzzled, the endless thunder that had gathered actually transformed into a giant battle spear shimmering with lightning. In the next moment, before Little Thunder King could react, he was directly pierced through the body by the giant thunder spear.

"Chi! Chi! Chi!"

Little Thunder King looked down at his chest in disbelief. There, a giant thunder spear shimmering with silver light was stuck, with countless 'chi chi chi' sounds ringing out. From the wound, faint traces of dark Demonic Qi emerged.

Clearly, the power of thunder summoned by the Thunder Ancestor Symbol had finally belatedly noticed the abnormality of Little Thunder King. There was actually the presence of Otherworldly Demonic Qi in his body.

Therefore, even though Little Thunder King had summoned the Thunder Emperor True Body, the power of thunder drawn by the Thunder Emperor True Body ultimately chose to personally end this Thunder Emperor's successor.

"Heh!"

Mo Luo couldn't help but chuckle at the sight. This was the consequence of insulting the controller of the Ancestor Symbol.

After Lin Dong saw the power of thunder kill Little Thunder King, he was stunned for a moment. Then, after reacting, he quickly urged the majestic power in his body, transforming it into dragon seals, and slammed them fiercely towards the Little Yuan King and Little Spirit King below, who had not yet reacted.

"Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art, Azure Dragon Heavenly Seat Seal!"

"Roar!!"

Under a shocking dragon roar, the giant Azure Dragon claw, which had attracted a lot of thunderous power, crushed the Little Yuan King and Little Spirit King below in a destructive manner.

In the blink of an eye, the Yuan Gate Three Little Kings, the previous generation's pride of Yuan Gate, had fallen. The people below had also reacted at this time, and their gazes towards Lin Dong were a little strange.

Great Accomplishment of Life Profound Realm peak, yet he wielded the Devouring Ancestor Symbol, and also possessed the Great Desolate Scripture and the Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art, such peerless Martial Arts. He had actually crossed an entire major realm to kill two geniuses. As expected of the Symbol Ancestor's successor, truly terrifying!

At this moment, all the experts below who were watching this scene were subdued by Lin Dong. As for whether they had any thoughts about the Devouring Ancestor Symbol in Lin Dong's body, who would dare?

Didn't they see? The Space Ancestor Symbol controller, the Sky Demon Marten, was his brother. The Darkness Ancestor Symbol controller, the next Palace Master of the Darkness Hall, was his sister, and seemingly in that sense. In addition, with the recognition of Mo Luo, the Flame Ancestor Symbol controller, and the power behind him, who would dare to have ideas about the Devouring Ancestor Symbol in Lin Dong's body?

If they felt their lives were too long, they could try slitting their own throats, instead of causing trouble for themselves, their families, and the forces behind them.

"Hehe, not bad. Although it was a bit opportunistic, borrowing the power of the thunderclouds, it's enough to show that your Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art has barely gained one-tenth of your teacher's true inheritance. I imagine, if Qing Zhi knew of your growth, he'd probably treat me to a good couple of drinks, haha!"

Just when everyone was still shocked by Lin Dong's strength and peerless talent, they heard Mo Luo laughing heartily again.

Now, everyone was even more dumbfounded. Looking at Mo Luo's cheerful laughter, it was clear that Mo Luo and Lin Dong's teacher had an extremely good relationship.

So, these Ancestor Symbol controllers were all one family, right?

"Junior Lin Dong greets Senior Mo Luo. Is Senior very familiar with my teacher?"

Lin Dong didn't really know much. He had only heard Senior Bo Xuan mention that if he went to the Chaotic Demon Sea, he could look for Mo Luo, who had an excellent relationship with his teacher, Qing Zhi.

"Haha, Qing Zhi and I are considered to be friends in life and death. If it weren't for Qing Zhi back then, I'm afraid there wouldn't be the me of today."

Mo Luo chuckled, but a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. Although the matter had passed for a long time, Mo Luo had never completely let it go. After all, the deaths of his family and beloved back then were all because he didn't know how to hide his abilities, which led to the tragedy.

However, fortunately, Mo Luo was gradually reconciling with himself now and was not too entangled in the past.

"Speaking of which, you should call me Uncle-Master, or Senior Brother, it just depends on which one you want to call me!"

Mo Luo said with a smile. Although Qing Zhi was not his teacher, for Mo Luo back then, Qing Zhi had indeed helped him a lot on his cultivation path, but he had not truly taught him Martial Arts. Qing Zhi was like a teacher and friend to him.

Lin Dong didn't know how to respond for a moment. After thinking about it, he still replied with a dry smile.

"Lin Dong greets Uncle-Master Mo Luo!"

"Haha, it seems you're not stupid, kid!"

Mo Luo smiled meaningfully, then his gaze fell on Lin Qingtan, who was standing beside Lin Dong, and he sized her up carefully.

Lin Qingtan wasn't as cautious as Lin Dong; instead, she also scrutinized Mo Luo, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

She found Mo Luo to be just as unfathomable, but Lin Qingtan felt that her master was even more profound. Perhaps it was because the old man always liked to hide in the darkness? Lin Qingtan wasn't sure.

"It seems the Darkness Ancestor Symbol has found an extremely outstanding controller. In such a short time, you've refined the Darkness Ancestor Symbol to this extent. Your talent is much better than my disappointing disciple."

Mo Luo looked at the equally bold and straightforward Lin Qingtan and couldn't help but think of his own disciple, shaking his head with a mix of relief and regret.

His disciple, Tang Xinlian, although extremely talented and capable of managing the entire Flame God Hall for him, even commanding the Flame God Hall's army with ease, unfortunately, Tang Xinlian didn't have the talent to control the Flame Ancestor Symbol and couldn't inherit his mantle.

In this regard, Mo Luo was still envious of Bo Xuan. He also wanted a successor who could fully inherit his legacy. At their level, who wasn't risking their life every day, ready to fight the Otherworldly Demons at any moment? If they didn't have a successor, their legacy would be completely cut off upon their death.

But apart from that, Mo Luo was extremely satisfied with Tang Xinlian as a disciple. At least she wouldn't be like this little girl in front of him, disregarding everything for her brother, almost driving Bo Xuan to death, yet leaving him helpless.

Hearing this, the faces of the Chaotic Demon Sea experts turned strange, especially those of young talents like Pang Hao.

The Flame God Hall's Fire Lotus Fairy Tang Xinlian was the dream lover of many young talents in the Chaotic Demon Sea. Yet, she was being called disappointing? And being compared to a little girl?

But the person who said Tang Xinlian was disappointing was none other than her teacher, the Flame God Hall Master and Flame Ancestor Symbol controller, Mo Luo. And the person Mo Luo said surpassed Tang Xinlian was the Darkness Hall's heir and Darkness Ancestor Symbol controller.

"Uncle Mo Luo is too kind. Qingtan has long heard of Sister Xinlian's Fire Lotus Fairy name. I hope Sister Xinlian can give Qingtan some guidance this time."

Lin Qingtan was quite polite, perhaps because she was no longer a young girl, she had lost her girlish temperament and was very courteous to others.

"Haha, you know how to talk. Just for calling me 'Uncle,' I'll protect you when we enter this cave later."

Mo Luo laughed heartily, nodded to Lin Qingtan, then looked at Mu Lingshan, shaking his head with a smile.

"I was wondering why that old man Mu Lan suddenly went crazy a while ago. So it was because you ran out, girl. Don't run around later. If you get hurt in front of me, that old man Mu Lan will blame me."

"Oh!"

Mu Lingshan responded somewhat reluctantly. She still preferred to adventure with Lin Dong; it was much more interesting.

Mo Luo could see through Mu Lingshan's little thoughts. After smiling, he looked at Lin Dong, a hint of teasing in his eyes, which made Lin Dong suddenly realize something.

Since Mo Luo had come here, then Qingtan's teacher, Senior Bo Xuan, should also be here. And back then, Senior Bo Xuan had come with the Young Clan Leader. Didn't that mean the three of them were traveling together this time?

Then, at the Sky Merchant Auction in Sky Merchant City, the trio of white, black, and red—could they have been the Young Clan Leader, Senior Bo Xuan, and Senior Mo Luo?

So, the Devouring Corpse was in the Young Clan Leader's hands?

Also, Senior Mo Luo and Senior Mu Lan were so familiar. Did that mean Senior Mu Lan's attack on him back then was intentional, because of Senior Bo Xuan?

At the thought of his relationship with Qingtan, Lin Dong couldn't help but feel a chill when he thought of Bo Xuan. Was it because he had stolen his cabbage?

No, Senior Mu Lan had already made a move. Then, wouldn't he have to face Senior Mo Luo later?
