Chapter 843 (1/2)
The golden light dropped onto the center of Hui Yao’s head. The light gradually faded until a golden crown appeared on top of Hui Yao’s head before it turned into a golden energy that gradually sank into Hui Yao’s head.
This was the Dragon Emperor’s legacy. It would only be passed down to the next generation of the new emperor when the older generation of Dragon Emperor was about to pass on. This was the Dragon Clan’s legacy of giving place to the new.
After the Dragon Emperor had completed the process, the radiance in his eyes clearly became dimmer as a large amount of fresh blood surged out from his body continuously and tainted the entire seal on the ground red.
“Weiqing.” The Dragon Emperor did not look at Hui Yao anymore. There was more that he wished to hand over to this junior of his! However, time was not on his side. In his perception, the disaster that might befall the entire mainland was even more important than the continuity of the Dragon Clan.
“Your Majesty, Dragon Emperor.” Zhou Weiqing exclaimed with great respect. Meanwhile, his Saint Energy had already completely circulated and connected with the twelve Divine Beasts. With the support of the Saint Energy and the Elven Empress’ Life Saint Energy, the Divine Beasts were healing at a shocking speed.
However, Zhou Weiqing was not the Dragon Emperor after all. Although he possessed tremendous Saint Energy, and his cultivation base was even more powerful than the Dragon Emperor, he knew nothing about the Netherworld seal’s magic formation before his eyes. He did not know how to wield the magic formation.
The Dragon Emperor muttered, “From now on, everyone must follow Weiqing’s order. After I’m gone, all of you must respect Weiqing like how you respected me. Otherwise, I’ll never be at ease even when I’m in another world, do all of you understand?”
Even when he was already on the brink of death, and he was about to arrive at the end of his life, all the Divine Beasts still simultaneously lowered their heads towards the Dragon Emperor the moment he displayed his courage and power. This was an emperor’s prestige.
The Divine Beasts’ eyes had reddened. Many of them were shedding tears. They had been together with the Dragon Emperor for at least a few thousand years, it could be said that the Dragon Emperor was like a teacher or a father to them. Aside from the husband and wife, Hui Yao and Duo Si who had just joined, almost every single one of the Divine Beasts served the Dragon Emperor willingly after they were subdued or rescued by the Dragon Emperor.
Once the Divine Beasts heard the Dragon Emperor’s words, many of them could not refrain from sobbing aloud. The cavern was instantly filled with a sorrowful atmosphere.
“Do all of you understand what I’ve just said?” The Dragon Emperor spoke in a lowered voice.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” All of the Divine Beasts answered the Dragon Emperor’s question with a voice that almost sounded like a sad cry.
The Dragon Emperor only nodded before he continued speaking to Zhou Weiqing, “Weiqing, I don’t have much time here. From now on, you shall do as I bid. With the existence of your Saint Energy, it’s absolutely possible to restore the seal to perfection. Very well, we shall begin now.”
The Dragon Emperor’s gaze became solemn as he spoke. He appeared just like a healthy elder. There was still a sense of strong prestige that remained on his body. He did not seem like he was on the brink of death at all.
“The magic formation was created together by me and the former Elven Empress. There were only six Divine Beasts that aided me back in the day, out of which there’s only three left currently out of the six Divine Beasts. I’m not going to dwell on the magic formation’s principle and structure. You’ll only need to launch the magic formation. My blood has already tainted the entire magic formation so the ultimate bloodline that’s destroyed by the Nether Lord earlier has been restored. Following this, you’ll need to complete the connection between all the Divine Beasts and the magic formation. Meanwhile, you’re the heart of this entire seal magic formation.”
Zhou Weiqing listened quietly. The Dragon Emperor’s voice had already begun to turn weaker as he spoke. It was apparent that he could die at any given moment.
“The heart of the seal is at the position where I am now. It’s also precisely the position that was destroyed by the Nether Lord earlier. This position will be empty after my death. You’re going to divide your Divine Thought into twelve portions. In order to complete the connection with the Divine Beasts, you need to completely loosen your state of mind. After that, you’ll lead them into infusing their energies into your body, and use yourself as the core and foundation. Convert all their energies into your Saint Energy then shoot it towards my position that’s also the core of the magic formation. The entire magic formation will be triggered from that. This is not a complicated process. I can sense that your body has a similar bloodline to our Dragon Clan’s Dragon Emperor Bloodlines. I’m going to strengthen the Dragon Emperor Bloodlines in your body before I die so the magic formation will recognize you as the new leader. Quick, let us begin. I can’t hold on much longer.”
The Dragon Emperor’s enormous body trembled violently as he spoke. Streaks upon streaks of Destruction Energy emerged from his body continuously. It was apparent that the remnant of his body would lose its suppressive effect on the Nether Lord soon.
The Nether Lord could naturally sense the Dragon Emperor’s actions. Although it would take time and tremendous energy to restore the seal, the Nether Lord would have no other opportunity to escape anymore once it was truly restored. That was why he no longer cared about exhausting his Ultimate Destruction Energy anymore. He used his powerful Ultimate Destruction Energy to launch an attack at the Dragon Emperor in an attempt to break through the seal that used the Dragon Emperor’s body as a medium to eliminate Zhou Weiqing and Tian’er first.
However, the Dragon Emperor had already made the decision to pay the price with his life. Even if the Nether Lord devoted all his effort and resources, it was still not an easy task to completely annihilate the Dragon Emperor. After all, they had dealt with each other for a long time now, and the Dragon Emperor understood the Nether Lord very well. Moreover, the Dragon Emperor had already gotten accustomed to the Destruction Energy since a long time ago. In addition to the Dragon Emperor’s fire element energy that was already burning at the strongest point, he was not just combusting his life force, but his Maximum-Level Heavenly God Tier 1 Heavenly Nucleus that was firmly wrapped around the Nether Lord. As long as the Dragon Emperor’s life did not burn out, it was utterly impossible for the Nether Lord to charge out of the seal.
