Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

Chapter 308: Eradicate the Root to Prevent Future Trouble

HUM—

The terrifying Power of Rules between Heaven and Earth was forcefully torn asunder by endless Divine Dao Laws.

The world itself suddenly began to tremble.

Within the divine light, the projection of the Taotie Divine Beast’s Beast Soul fully manifested. It glanced around, its eyes radiating the terrifying divine light of the Divine Dao Laws.

"Oh? A mere planet on the verge of Destruction, yet its Power of Fortune is astonishing. If I devour it, it would be a worthy tribute to the Divine Phoenix Bloodline that once underwent Nirvana within me. I once devoured the entire Divine Phoenix Lineage, and I still haven’t managed to condense many of the Nirvana Laws. For you all to condense even a few... that’s not bad."

The Taotie Divine Beast spoke with immense arrogance.

Using the Divine Domain Ancient City, he had made his Descent into the periphery of the Sword Ancestor Star, not daring to land directly within the Ancestral Star itself. The Laws inside this Ancestral Star were powerful enough to destroy his projection.

Having lost a total of five projections, the Taotie Divine Beast’s losses were immense. Its Origin, Divine Dao Laws, and more had been affected, and its Divine Spirit Realm had even dropped by two levels.

However, he showed none of this. How could the Ancient Divine Beast Taotie lose its dignity in front of its own sons?

"Father-King, we can handle going in from here. You don’t need to worry. We now possess a certain Nirvana Ability and peerless Divine Blood. We will definitely conquer this planet!"

Ye Cangqian’s voice was deep and cold.

He was exceptionally confident at this moment, feeling as though his Sword Tribulation First Refining Realm gave him enough Battle Power to shatter a planet with a single punch.

"Conquering the planet isn’t the goal. The goal is Devouring that so-called ’genius’! Only you, brother, would take the natives of some backwater land seriously!"

Ye Cangkun’s arrogance was unimaginable.

Even toward Ye Cangqian, he was utterly disdainful. If not for their father’s doting affection for his older brother, he would never have bothered to speak a single word to Ye Cangqian.

He hadn’t watched that battle, but just thinking about it—how Ye Cangqian had acknowledged a crawling Sinful Dragon as his father... Ye Cangkun felt sick just recalling such a disgrace.

"Kun’Er, do not underestimate the enemy! Also, after your Descent onto this planet, you will land directly in the Jade Pool Sacred Land’s territory. The Saint Master of the Jade Pool Sacred Land is your mother! Although she was killed, she should still have your respect!"

The Taotie Divine Beast’s expression darkened. The Laws in its eyes flowed with divine light as a terrifying pressure bore down on them.

HUM—

Both Ye Cangqian and Ye Cangkun couldn’t help but tremble. Their arrogance instantly vanished, replaced by servile obedience.

"Yes, Father-King."

Ye Cangqian and Ye Cangkun immediately replied obediently.

"This planet is not as simple as you think. Even with my strength, I was caught off guard and suffered a small loss. You must remember—our ultimate goal is to devour all of this planet’s resources and unearth its core secrets! Therefore, to achieve this, I, your father, permit you to use any means necessary!"

"Doesn’t the Jade Pool Sacred Land have many Saintesses? Absorb them all! Feel free to Do as You Please. With Wuhen’s Ability, he’s more than capable of crushing all opposition! Anyone who defies you, devour them!"

"After you have Control of the Jade Pool Sacred Land, what remains is to start uncovering the secrets of the various Ancient Lands and the resources of their hidden Secret Realms!"

The Taotie Divine Beast’s gaze manifested an even more astonishing Power of Laws as it swept across the ancient planet, the Sword Ancestor Star. It was as if it had discovered numerous Secret Realms and lands of terrifying opportunity within.

Especially the small, independent pockets of Space, like unique Super Divine Domains where ten thousand layers of Laws converged!

This feeling seemed to make its heart tremble even more than its own Divine Domain Ancient City.

Under this powerful Sensing, its expression grew increasingly solemn, and its features became more severe.

However, it ultimately did not voice these thoughts. It would first let Ye Wuhen, its capable subordinate, scout out the situation.

As it mulled this over, its gaze focused into two beams of divine radiance and shot directly toward Ye Wuhen.

Ye Wuhen was a burly, middle-aged man. He possessed the Taotie Divine Blood but was not a son of the Taotie.

Although he was from the Divine Domain Ancient City, after forcibly lowering his Realm by one level, he was now only at the Realm of Nine Source Perfection as a Sword Saint.

This Realm was nearly identical to that of the Jade Pool Saint Master, Yao Yusu.

A Realm like this was nothing in the Divine Domain Ancient City, but on the Sword Ancestor Star—at least in the Daoist Continent region—it was truly the pinnacle of invincibility.

"Lord Taotie Divine King, this subordinate understands. I will not disappoint you, Lord Divine King!"

The information contained within the Taotie Divine Beast’s terrifying projection of Laws was naturally immense.

Ye Wuhen accepted this information, his mind reeling. With a solemn and grave expression, he bowed deeply with the utmost seriousness, accepting the heavy task.

As soon as he received the mission, a strong sense of unease rose in Ye Wuhen’s heart.

But he said nothing. ’If I’m feeling uneasy, then Lord Taotie Divine King must have sensed something too. That means this is a crucial mission! If I can complete it well, my future will be incomparably brilliant.’

"Very good. It’s good that you are aware. You must understand the proper hierarchy! Now, go!"

The man who was the Taotie Divine Beast waved his hand, unleashing a swath of Daoist light. The light tore through Space, forming a terrifying, ancient Teleportation Array.

"Go inside. After this power enters the Sword Ancestor Star, you will descend on your own. You two, in all important matters, you must listen to Guardian Ye Wuhen! Understood?"

The Taotie Divine Beast issued its command, its voice filled with absolute authority.

"We will, Father-King!"

Ye Cangqian and Ye Cangkun shuddered and immediately replied, silent as cicadas in winter.

They knew that although their Father-King was extremely good to them, overly protective, and always shielded them, he was also incredibly strict. His Words and Laws Followed; his every word was an unbreakable decree. No one could defy his commands!

The man who was the Taotie Divine Beast nodded with slight satisfaction, then turned his gaze back to the planet, observing it intently for a long time.

During this time, the trio of Ye Cangqian, Ye Cangkun, and Ye Wuhen did not dare to leave prematurely.

"How incredible... It seems I truly have underestimated this planet..."

The man who was the Taotie Divine Beast seemed lost in thought, sighing with a mix of lament and awe, a clear look of shock in his eyes.

After another moment, he suddenly said, "Right, that kid... hmm, the one named ’Ye Tianling.’ I, your Father-King, am certain that all his power has been crippled, and his Void Body has completely undergone Transformation Dao! Even if he’s not dead, he’s more or less a cripple."

"But someone who can be called a ’Divine Child’ like him often has heaven-defying fortune. He might just rise again one day."

"You must find him as soon as possible and cut the weeds by the roots to eliminate any future trouble!"

"Finally, you two brothers are to split him into two parts and devour him!"

"If one of you tries it alone, I’m afraid you won’t be able to suppress his Life Chart and Qi Fortune, and you’ll suffer a backlash."

The man who was the Taotie Divine Beast stopped scrutinizing the massive Sword Ancestor Star and gave this one last, serious instruction.
