Chapter 3267: Serpent Wyrm Island
Ten years later.
Baldachin State.
Among the 108 states in the Southeast Region, the largest faction in Baldachin State was Five Poisons Palace and was also the only first-rate faction in the state.
There were thousands of second-rate factions under Five Poisons Palace that ruled over a region.
There were countless third-rate factions.
A faction was only qualified to be called a second-rate faction if they had a Dao Comprehension realm expert holding down the fort.
Among the second-rate factions, there were strong and weak ones.
For Myriad Beast Ridge that originally only had four Heavenly Supremacies holding down the fort, they were considered bottom-tier among the second-rate factions.
The true overlords among second-rate factions were those with Utmost Heavenly Supremacies!
Serpent Wyrm Island was one of them.
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord was of the Serpent Wyrm race to begin with and had a powerful physique and bloodline. Furthermore, he was at the perfected Dao Comprehension realm and was famous among the Utmost Heavenly Supremacy experts.
Countless Utmost Heavenly Supremacy experts had died in his hands. He hardly lost against others at the same cultivation realm.
It was said that the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord had a mysterious spirit treasure that could devour treasures and restrain powerful enemies.
Someone had once witnessed an Utmost Heavenly Supremacy suddenly disappear during a battle with the Island Lord of the Serpent Wyrm Island!
The Utmost Heavenly Supremacy seemed to have been erased from this world without leaving any traces.
It was also because of this that although Serpent Wyrm Island only had a single Utmost Heavenly Supremacy, other second-rate factions with Utmost Heavenly Supremacies were unwilling to provoke them easily.
On this day, the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord woke up from his seclusion with a hint of frustration between his brows.
At the Dao Comprehension realm, one’s lifespan could reach a billion years!
Right now, he was already 800 million years old.
The time he stayed in the Dao Comprehension realm alone was 500 million years!
For an Utmost Heavenly Supremacy of the Dao Comprehension realm with a lifespan of a billion years, at 800 million years old, he had already begun to decline from his peak.
As time pa.s.sed, he would grow older and every aspect of his body, including his essence, qi and spirit, would decline.
It would also become more and more difficult to break through.
If he could not take another step forward and advance to the Dao Hegemony realm, he would probably be stuck at the perfected Dao Comprehension realm for the rest of his life!
As long as one entered the Dao Hegemony realm, they would have a lifespan of 10 billion years!
Compared to the billion years of the Dao Comprehension realm, it was ten times more!
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord was indignant.
Ever since he obtained the Nameless Treasure Diagram back then, he was almost unrivaled among his peers.
However, even after comprehending the treasure diagram for many years, he could not gain anything.
The only thing he could do was make use of the Nameless Treasure Diagram to set up a trap and take advantage of the situation to kill powerful enemies!
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord arrived in a hall.
At that moment, both sides of the hall were already filled with people. As far as the eye could see, the ones with the lowest cultivation were Supremacies while the others were Heavenly Supremacies and Great Heavenly Supremacies!
“Congratulations on coming out of seclusion, Father. You shall s.h.i.+ne as prominently as the sun and moon and live forever!”
In the Serpent Wyrm Hall, the descendants of the Island Lord were the first to stand out and kneel down to him, congratulating him loudly.
“Congratulations on coming out of seclusion, Island Lord. You shall s.h.i.+ne as prominently as the sun and moon and live forever!”
Immediately after, the Supremacies, Heavenly Supremacies and Great Heavenly Supremacies in the hall knelt on the ground one after another.
These were all experts of Serpent Wyrm Island who were here to celebrate the 800 million-year-old birthday of the Island Lord.
“Get up.”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord nodded slightly and said distractedly.
“Father, is there anything on your mind?”
When Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying, the fourth son of the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord, saw that the latter was troubled, he stood out and probed.
“Live forever? Live forever… heh!”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord chuckled and shook his head. “It’s not that easy to live forever.”
“Father, you’re in your prime. You can definitely take another step forward and advance to the Dao Hegemony realm to become a Dao Supremacy!”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord’s eighth son, Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu, said hurriedly.
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord smiled and shook his head in silence.
He had many descendants and his fourth and eighth sons were the two most talented and outstanding among his many sons.
The two Dragon Princes had been fighting openly and secretly for many years. The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord turned a blind eye to everything.
After all, his two sons fought for his favor and had to do everything they could to please him.
Suddenly, Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu said, “Father, in recent years, I’ve heard of something. Perhaps an opportunity given to you by the heavens can help you advance to the Dao Hegemony realm!”
“Oh?”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord’s whiskers twitched in interest.
He did not want to miss any opportunity to advance to the Dao Hegemony realm!
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu first kept him in suspense and asked, “Father, have you heard of Chaos Palace?”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord frowned slightly. “Is Chaos Palace still around? It’s said that when the Chaos Sanctuary was destroyed, a group of slaves continued their faction in exile. I thought they would have died off a long time ago.”
“You’re wise, Father!”
Regardless of what the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord said, Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu first flattered before continuing, “Chaos Palace is indeed on the verge of destruction. However, ten years ago, a Palace Lord was born in Chaos Palace. It’s said that he was an ascender from the medium chiliocosm.”
“The new Palace Lord Chaos first destroyed Black Rat Sect before fighting in Myriad Beast Ridge and killing three Heavenly Supremacies and three Great Heavenly Supremacies. Two of the Great Heavenly Supremacies were from Black Goat Ridge!”
“After that battle, Chaos Palace took over Myriad Beast Ridge. Now, they occupy 12 Source Mines and have risen to fame in recent years.”
“I’ve heard about that as well.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying added.
“Fufu.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu had a mocking expression as he mocked, “What else do you know, Fourth Brother?”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Ying was silent.
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord asked, “What race and cultivation is this ascender from?”
“Father, you’re incomparably wise. You saw through the crux of the matter with a single question!”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu praised again, “Palace Lord Chaos is a human with an ordinary bloodline and his cultivation realm is only at the Third Transformation of the Dao Manifestation realm!”
“Oh?”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord could tell that something was amiss and asked, “A Supremacy at the Third Transformation of the Dao Manifestation realm crossed realms and killed three Heavenly Supremacies and three Great Heavenly Supremacies?”
“Yes.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu nodded.
“How?”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord asked immediately.
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu said, “According to what I know, Palace Lord Chaos has two treasure swords that are invincible. Even Great Heavenly Supremacies can’t defend against them. They’re definitely extraordinary.”
“Two swords?”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord murmured softly in disappointment.
If it was just divine weapons, they might not be of much help to his breakthrough.
However, according to Long Yu, the two swords could indeed be considered rare treasures.
Even a Dao Manifestation realm Supremacy could kill a Great Heavenly Supremacy.
If it landed in his hands, what kind of power would it unleash?
“How strong is Chaos Palace now?”
The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord asked.
“Father.”
Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu said in a deep voice, “I’ve already investigated. Right now, Chaos Palace has 12 Great Heavenly Supremacies holding down the fort. However, these 12 Great Heavenly Supremacies are not strong enough and are not much of a threat.”
“The only troublesome one is Palace Lord Chaos.”
“It’s said that there were other Great Heavenly Supremacy experts who tried to s.n.a.t.c.h the Source Mines of Chaos Palace but failed. Instead, they died in Chaos Palace.”
As Great Heavenly Supremacy Long Yu said that, he observed the look in the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord’s eyes. When he saw that he was tempted, he continued, “Father, as long as you allow it, I’ll lead an army on the island to kill my way to Chaos Palace and bring the two treasure swords back for you today!”
