Chapter 1211: Chapter 1202: Rushing to the Demon Dragon Clan Territory
The actions of the Divine Scale King left everyone around from the Divine Scale Clan utterly flabbergasted.
Expressions of extreme astonishment, almost dazed.
"Mo Venerable?"
Such an address is normally used by a junior for a senior, isn’t it?
The Ancestor King was sealed within the Divine Origin for millions of years, yet upon his emergence, how could he recognize Mo Wangchen?
And even lower his stance to address Mo Wangchen as Mo Venerable?
"It seems I guessed correctly... You are indeed his reincarnation, and have awakened your memories."
Under the gaze of the entire audience, Mo Wangchen looked at the Divine Scale Clan, and suddenly smiled.
"I never thought after several eras, I would be able to meet Mo Venerable again. I should have had another hundred years before emerging from the Divine Origin, but just now, I unexpectedly sensed Mo Venerable’s aura."
The Divine Scale King appeared somewhat excited; at this moment, before Mo Wangchen, his stance was very low.
This was not out of fear, but rather a heartfelt gratitude and reverence.
In the past, during his tribulation as he took human form, Mo Wangchen helped him ward off the Heavenly Tribulation, after which he was taken back by the then Divine Scale Clan.
That was a dark, godless age, where the Divine Scale Clan had no Ancient King; through his efforts, he eventually made astonishing progress.
During Mo Wangchen’s second life, Yuyu eradicated his own path, dissolving the forbidden power across heaven and earth, giving hope for people to become gods.
Shortly after Mo Wangchen left his second life, he, who had become the Ancestor King of the Divine Scale Clan, finally sensed the Investiture of the Gods in the Outer Starry Sky, obtained his Divine Status, and embarked on the Divine Road.
Over several eras, he reincarnated repeatedly, and never thought he would meet Mo Wangchen here again.
With the experience of the Divine Scale King, by now, it was naturally clear to him that the Mo Wangchen he first met and the one before him now were indeed the same person, someone who didn’t belong to that era.
"Ancestor King..."
Lin Zhi approached, wanting to inquire about a certain matter because he found it too perplexing.
Why did the king sealed within the Divine Origin, after millions of years upon awakening, recognize Mo Wangchen and still maintain a junior’s demeanor before him?
Such a scene left not just Lin Zhi, but all members of the Divine Scale Clan present shocked and confused to the utmost.
"This is Mo Venerable... In the future, seeing him is like seeing the Ancestor King; no one from the Divine Scale Clan is to defy Mo Venerable’s will."
The words from the Divine Scale King left Lin Zhi and others present utterly confused. What did they just hear?
Seeing Mo Wangchen is like seeing the Ancestor King?
"We greet Mo Venerable!"
Though filled with many doubts, Lin Zhi and the others dared not ask more, facing Mo Wangchen, they collectively offered their respects.
"No need for such formality..."
Mo Wangchen was momentarily taken aback, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the reverence; an ancient clan with an awakened king pledging absolute obedience left him slightly uncomfortable.
He looked at the Divine Scale King, "I came today merely to verify if the you within the Divine Origin is truly the same person I knew, didn’t expect your premature awakening, just as well, I need your assistance with something..."
"Mo Venerable, feel free to speak; my Divine Scale Clan will go all out to assist." the Divine Scale Clan replied earnestly.
Thereafter, Mo Wangchen briefly recounted his dealings with the Demon Dragon Clan over recent times.
"Does Mo Venerable wish to campaign against the Demon Dragon Clan Territory?"
Upon hearing this, even the Divine Scale King showed a slight surprise before saying, "In my first life, Mo Venerable aided me in warding off the tribulation of form-shifting. Since then, I’ve never dared forget such a great favor. For several eras, the Divine Scale Clan has refrained from intervening in the affairs between human and ancient clans for this reason."
"Though we wish to remain neutral, we often faced pressure. The Dragon Clan is among the ancient clans most hostile toward the Human Clan; for years, the Dragon Clan has been discontented with our neutral stance, even harboring intentions to suppress us."
"Before I was sealed within the Divine Origin, I once clashed with the Demon Dragon King. Now, if Mo Venerable intends to deal with him, I shall assist with full force."
"Then it is well."
Upon hearing this, Mo Wangchen was greatly pleased, but then he shook his head, "If it can be avoided, you needn’t truly engage. The Demon Dragon King is, after all, a king-level figure from ancient times, difficult to deal with, and it’s hardly possible to slay him. This time, you just accompany me; my aim is to rescue, not truly wage war on the Demon Dragon Clan."
"As Mo Venerable orders, I shall cooperate." the Divine Scale King nodded.
To avoid war with the Dragon Clan would naturally be beneficial for the Divine Scale Clan. Now just awakening, he had not fully grasped the current situation, rashly engaging another Ancient King would be unwise.
"Time is pressing, let us set off immediately." Mo Wangchen stated.
Mu Xi is in the hands of the Demon Dragon Clan, each day more adds another day’s threat to his life; rescuing him soon is paramount.
However, in Mo Wangchen’s view, the Demon Dragon Clan probably wouldn’t easily kill Mu Xi.
The previous incarnation of the Ancient Demon Dragon King descended to try and stop me, testing if the Black-Robed Man behind me would intervene.
The answer now obvious, the Black-Robed Man is absent; the Demon Dragon King is no longer afraid, seeking to use Mu Xi to lure me in with the intent to kill me.
This battle is unavoidable. On one hand, Mo Wangchen is compelled to save Mu Xi; on the other, the Human Clan’s Divine King Body poses a huge threat to the Ancient Clan, and there is a deep enmity with the Demon Dragon Clan. The Demon Dragon King will, by all means, seek to eliminate Mo Wangchen.
If not, should Mo Wangchen prove his Dao, becoming a god, none on earth could stand in his way; further, it is known to all that Mo Wangchen harbors a Divine Status—his becoming a god is merely a matter of time.
Though the Divine Scale Clan resides within the Smoke Martial Alliance, far from the Demon Dragon Clan, with the speed of Mo Wangchen and the Divine Scale King, they could reach there within half a day.
As the Bright Sun set, the evening glow filled the Heavenly Vault, draping it in a golden yellow hue.
Now, outside the Demon Dragon Clan Territory, more and more people were gathering, all cultivators from various factions of the Daluo Heaven Realm, including many Saint Master Level heroes and numerous Emperor Level geniuses.
Like the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, this great adversary of Mo Wangchen’s generation, reportedly arrived two days earlier, residing deep within the Demon Dragon Clan.
The Green Emperor naturally didn’t absent himself; upon arriving, the Green Martial Alliance mobilized quite a few Demigod Realm experts, following him. Should a war break out, the Green Emperor would certainly be the first to join the fray.
"Tian Xinzhi, Flame Phoenix Saintess, these absolute beauties of the Xuanwu Alliance are also here."
"Along with Heavenly Dragon Divine Body Jiang Chen, and renowned geniuses from various Martial Alliances, almost half have come."
"All these geniuses rivaling the Divine King Body’s generation, qualified to contend for supremacy, are here for the war between Mo Wangchen and the Demon Dragon Clan. People wish to know the current power level of the Divine King Body, and these geniuses are especially curious."
The scene was a bit noisy with discussions abound; meanwhile, from the distant horizon came a sudden sound of wind being broken through with extreme force, coming from afar nearby, with Great Dao Divine Power filling the void and disrupting the Heavenly Vault.
No reminder was needed; almost simultaneously, everyone’s gaze involuntarily turned toward that direction.
There, clad in white robes, with an ethereal and transcendent aura, the Young God King bathed in radiant Great Dao Divine Grace, approached, walking through the void.
