Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 232: Chapter 120 Dragon Palace’s Foundation_1

The head cut off on the Dragon-executing Platform was not the true body of River Ji Dragon Sovereign, but a deity in the form of a dragon-headed human that represented his authority.

However, in some respects, the impact of cutting off the influence of the River Ji Dragon Sovereign’s authority was far greater than killing a River Ji Dragon Sovereign.

Throughout the tens of thousands of years of Dragon Tribe history, there have been Dragon Sovereigns who have fallen, those who have lost their throne due to internal power struggles, and those who have destroyed themselves due to dereliction of duty.

But every Dragon Sovereign has held onto their position until their last breath, maintaining their dignity as the Dragon Sovereign of the Four Waterways when they assumed their positions.

Not a single Dragon Sovereign has been humiliated in public like Ao Lang, shackled in chains and stripped of his authority on the Dragon-executing Platform.

Under the gaze of all sentient beings in Cang Province, the dignity of the River Ji Dragon Palace was thoroughly trampled under Shen Yuan’s feet.

The River Ji Dragon Sovereign, as the Dragon Sovereign of the Four Waterways, held ancestral power and served as the overlord of all Aquatic Tribes.

In the era when the River Ji Dragon Palace existed, the will of the River Ji Dragon Sovereign could influence the world’s fortunes, and even sacred grotto heavens and blessed lands dare not lightly offend the River Ji Dragon Palace, even the Human Emperor Dynasty had to yield deferentially to it.

This was the very foundation of River Ji Dragon Sovereign’s complacency about Sunn Lanyu’s reckless actions, even going so far as to use the Giant Clam Water God to exterminate an entire city.

Because the River Ji Dragon Sovereign did not fear the Human Emperor Dynasty, nor did he fear the numerous grotto heavens and blessed lands within Qingping County.

However, just a moment ago, the pride of the River Ji Dragon Palace, the prestige of the Dragon Sovereign, was thoroughly trampled underfoot.

It’s not just about stripping Ao Lang of his River Ji Dragon Sovereign title, but more importantly, it disregards the dignity accumulated over tens of thousands of years by the entire River Ji Dragon Palace.

At the moment when the dragon-headed human body deity was beheaded under the gaze of all sentient beings in Cang Province, the will of the Dragon Sovereign that had overshadowed the sentient beings of Cang Province for countless years has dissipated.

The prestige accumulated by the River Ji Dragon Palace over tens of thousands of years collapsed in an instant.

These sentient beings would engrave this scene in their memory and pass it along with their lineage.

Even the most ordinary fish, if its descendants were to achieve the status of a demon, could still glimpse this scene of the fall of the Dragon Sovereign from the memories of its ancestors.

“Bastard!”

“Do you know what you’ve done?”

“The prestige that my River Ji Dragon Palace has accumulated for tens of thousands of years is going to be completely destroyed today!”

“Even if you’re a Divine Monarch, with the power of the Heavenly Court at your disposal, you can’t be so reckless!”

From atop the Crystal Palace’s grand hall, several True Dragons and Water Gods looked at the corpse on the Dragon-executing Platform, their expressions filled with furious anger.

Strong auras began to leak out with the fluctuations in their emotions, and various disaster phenomena began to manifest in the endless wide sea area.

In the deep sea, the earth cracked open to reveal an abyss that seemed bottomless. Huge underwater volcanoes started to erupt. Hot magma mixed with cold seawater, turning the thousand-mile sea area into a dead sea.

Even Ao Yu, who was most happy to see Ao Lang suffer a setback, had a face full of rage and his eyes were about to burst at this moment.

His fight with Ao Lang for the Dragon Sovereign’s position was to control the power of the River Ji Dragon Sovereign and ascend to the supreme position of the River Ji.

Yet today, under the gaze of all sentient beings in Cang Province, Shen Yuan cut off the authority of the River Ji Dragon Sovereign, which represented far more than simply stripping the River Ji Dragon Sovereign of his position.

With the authority of the Dragon Sovereign beheaded, even the most lowly fish could witness this scene, and the sentient beings of Cang Province would lose their reverence for the power of the River Ji Dragon Sovereign.

It can be said that the River Ji Dragon Palace has completely lost the inherent prestige over the sentient beings of Cang Province.

Although the power of the River Ji Dragon Palace is sufficient to suppress all sentient beings in the entire Cang Province, the loss of dignity granted by the authority of the Dragon Sovereign will result in the Aquatic Tribes of Cang Province no longer unconditionally loyal to the River Ji Dragon Palace in the future, inevitably leading to unrest.

And what’s even more critical is the impact of this incident within the Human Clan.

For ordinary people, they simply cannot understand the difference between the deity’s incarnation of the Dragon Sovereign’s authority and the Dragon Sovereign himself.

In their eyes, the Dragon Sovereign of the River Ji tolerated the evil deeds of his subordinates and wanted to destroy Qingping County City. Hundreds of Dragon Sovereign temples within Cang Province were destroyed by the angry people.

The white-robed Immortal upholds justice for the people of Cang Province, descending the Dragon-executing Platform to kill the Dragon Sovereign.

This is the scene that the public witnesses, and ordinary people will only believe in what they see.

As a result, the Dragon Sovereign of River Ji will no longer have any prestige as a Dragon Sovereign. The incense worship and River Ji grand ceremony that has been maintained for tens of thousands of years in Cang Province will completely disappear due to this incident, it may even impact the whole Great Xia.

Without the belief in incense, the Dragon Tribe might be able to survive, but the Dragon Palace cannot support the current vast number of Water Gods.

If a large number of Water Gods fall, the Dragon Tribe, with its scarce numbers, will not be able to control the River Ji water area on its own, and the River Ji Dragon Palace will inevitably disintegrate.

Perhaps a thousand years from now, the River Ji Dragon Sovereign that is circulated in the world will become a villain in the folktales, appearing in the play plot of the Immortals killing the Dragon Sovereign.

For the River Ji Dragon Palace, this is definitely not a situation that can be remedied by just replacing it with another Dragon Sovereign.

The prestige and authority that has been maintained by the River Ji Dragon Palace for tens of thousands of years will not allow anyone to trample on!

Atop the grand hall of the Crystal Palace, Ao Yu roared in astonishment:

“We, River Ji Dragon Palace, have been in control of the waters in the Primal Chaos Realm for tens of thousands of years, when have we endured such an insult?

Even if he is a reigning Divine Monarch, he must pay the price!”

The True Dragons and local water deities within the hall were filled with rage, but none of them could come up with a solution.

Had the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge completely returned, the River Ji Dragon Palace would have re-emerged into the world, it would not need to fear a Divine Monarch, even one whose depth was unfathomable and had connections with the Upper World Heavenly Court.

Upon its descending into the world, the River Ji Dragon Palace would control tens of thousands of miles of waterways. After taking over as the Dragon Sovereign, one would be able to display the strength comparable to an Immortal in the River Ji waterways with the inheritance of the ancestors.

In the Dragon Palace grotto heavens, even older dragons were in deep slumber, their cultivation was unfathomable.

Considering the strength of the River Ji Dragon Palace alone, it could be considered dominant in the Primal Chaos Realm, not inferior to any major power.

The Four Waterways Dragon Palace, being the ancestral line of the Dragon Tribe, also had many members occupying high positions in the Upper World Heavenly Court, attaining the prestigious rank of Star Monarch.

Even many ancestors within the tribe were mounts for the Heavenly Court Emperor and Immortals. Their network stretched across the Heavenly Court, and they had no reason to fear the Divine Monarch’s background.

With its impressive power and backing, few enemies in the Primal Chaos Realm dared to offend the River Ji Dragon Palace. This was the source of the Dragon Palace’s confidence.

Moreover, the Four Waterways Dragon Palace was closely related. Once they encountered an enemy like a Divine Monarch, the other three major Dragon Palaces would surely come to assist.

Once the Four Waterways Dragon Palace made a joint move, it could mobilize all the aquatic tribes in the Primal Chaos Realm. By then, the Divine Monarch, no matter how skilled, would inevitably meet his doom here.

But the Divine Monarch found the weakest period of the River Ji Dragon Palace before it emerged. The Dragon Sovereign of River Ji could not utilize the jurisdiction to draw Immortal cultivation from the River Ji waterways, and the elderly were asleep in the ancestral land.

All the True Dragons, local water gods, and True Dragons of the Yellow River Dragon Palace could not descend into the world to aid the River Ji Dragon Palace in any way.

In such a situation, it let the many powerful creatures inside the Crystal Palace Grand Hall at a loss on how to break the deadlock.

As for forcibly descending into the world?

Even the Heavenly Court Edict was lowered by the Divine Monarch, and the Giant Clam Water God’s Divine Skills were put to rest with a single word. They had no idea how much strength the Divine Monarch could unleash.

In such a circumstance, even strong True Monarchs descending into the world would inevitably meet their death.

Death was not terrifying, but all True Dragons and local gods were unwilling to die in vain.

Inside the grand hall of the Crystal Palace, there was a brief silence, and then all eyes converged on Ao Yu.

“The plan now should be to arrange for Prince Ao Yu to succeed the Dragon Sovereign as soon as possible.”

“That Divine Monarch must not be moved, at least not until our River Ji Dragon Palace completely emerges into the world!”

“The Dragon Sovereign’s throne has been severed, and the majesty of our River Ji Dragon Palace is completely lost. We should seal off the news as soon as possible and not let this information spread out of the Cang Province.”

“Fools! The words of the true Divine Monarch are spread among billions of souls in Cang Province, we may be able to seal it off after we emerge, but how can we seal off the news now when we can’t even leave the grotto heavens?”

Amidst the discussion, all True Dragons and Water Gods acknowledged one thing. That is, the successor of the Dragon Sovereign must be Ao Yu.

As for Ao Lang who was silent and in a mess under the steps of the throne, he was completely ignored by everyone.

After some deliberation, Ao Yu finally spoke.

“I will go to the ancestral land and earnestly ask the elders to wake up to preside over my succession to the Dragon Sovereign, and recuperate the Dragon Sovereign’s power.”

“It’s no longer realistic to block the news. I will order the descendants of the Aquatic Tribe who belong to our River Ji Dragon Palace to monitor the Cang Province. Anyone who dares to talk about this matter can be killed!”

Ao Yu’s voice was low, the moment the word “kill” fell, a surge of murderous intent soared into the sky, staining the entire sea within the grotto heaven with a blood-red color.

All the True Dragons and Water Gods bowed to Ao Yu in succession.

“We obey Prince Ao Yu’s command!”

Ao Yu nodded slightly, and then his gaze seemed to pass through space and fall on the sky outside Qingping County City. His golden pupils were extremely gloomy.

“As for that Divine Monarch of unknown identity, after our River Ji Dragon Palace emerges, we will undoubtedly slaughter his sect and annihilate his family!”

Ao Yu’s murderous voice slowly echoed in the grand hall of the Crystal Palace.

But at the next moment, the mysterious white-robed Divine Monarch slowly turned his head to look in the direction of the River Ji Dragon Palace.

Ao Yu showed a grim smile on his face, showing no sign of fear under his direct gaze.

Just at this moment, the projection of the Supreme Emperor in the celestial vault turned its eyes slowly, seemingly looking towards the River Ji Dragon Palace with Shen Yuan.

The grim smile on Ao Lang’s face froze completely.
