"Thank you, Brother Zhu, for helping me recover my Soul Power!"
Xiao Xuan also cupped his hands and thanked Zhu Kun.
"One day, I will definitely open this Ancient Emperor Cave and help Brother Zhu escape!"
After all, Xiao Xuan's Soul Power had almost fully recovered, and his strength had returned to the Nine-Star Dou Sheng Realm. Naturally, he once again had thoughts about the Ancient Emperor Cave... However, Zhu Kun only smiled faintly upon hearing this:
"Brother Xiao, you are too kind..."
"So, I'll entrust my child to Brother Xiao..."
Xiao Xuan nodded: "Brother Zhu, rest assured..."
Hearing Xiao Xuan's promise, Zhu Kun also relaxed.
After all, with Xiao Xuan now a Nine-Star Dou Sheng again, and him protecting her, Zi Yan would naturally be able to return to Dragon Island safely!
"Brother Xiao, even so, I'll have to trouble you..."
"This Immortal Cave has the Law of the Dao suppressing it. I cannot stay outside for too long..."
After Zhu Kun finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Zi Yan one last time and gently instructed her:
"Child..."
"From now on, you are the new Dragon Emperor of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan! Your father trusts you. If I can ever see the light of day again, by then, I believe the Void Ancient Dragon Clan will surely create new glory!"
After Zhu Kun spoke, a soft light slowly illuminated his body, and the Void Realm behind him slowly cracked open.
Immediately, his figure once again vanished into the Void Realm, returning to the Small World of the Ancient Emperor Cave.
And Zi Yan watched Zhu Kun disappear before her eyes. Although she didn't speak, one could still see Zi Yan nodding.
After completing the Dragon Emperor's Legacy, Zi Yan's strength not only soared, but her mind also seemed to have transformed from the little girl she once was, becoming the Dragon Emperor!
After all, Zhu Kun had guarded this place alone for tens of thousands of years; perhaps no one could truly empathize with that!
After all, behind him was the greatest Opportunity on the Continent, yet he was powerless. As a top expert on the Continent, he could only act as a guardian here.
Such solitude, presumably not many could endure... Perhaps all of this was Karma. If Zhu Kun hadn't coveted the Opportunity within the Ancient Emperor Cave back then, he wouldn't have ended up in this predicament.
Back then, with such an Opportunity before his eyes, no one could resist the temptation!
After all, that was the only possibility of achieving the Dou Di Realm!
At this moment, Xiao Xuan looked at the Small World beneath his feet, his expression somewhat complex... Because Xiao Xuan knew in his heart that if he had encountered the same situation as Zhu Kun back then, seeing the chance to become an Emperor right before his eyes!
He, too, would have tried without hesitation... "Ancestor, should we first send Zi Yan back to Dragon Island...?"
Xiao Yi looked at the somewhat lost Xiao Xuan and asked softly.
Hearing Xiao Yi's voice, Xiao Xuan finally snapped out of it and nodded:
"Of course. Since I promised Brother Zhu, I naturally have to fulfill that promise..."
Xiao Xuan, as a person, was upright and honorable his entire life, and always kept his promises!
Since he had received benefits from Zhu Kun and made a promise to Zhu Kun, he naturally had to fulfill it... In short, Xiao Xuan was not Gu Yuan... As for the Ancient Dragon Island, Xiao Yi vaguely remembered that it seemed to be in that Void Realm!
That Void Realm, like the independent worlds where the other great Dou Di Families lived, was independent of the regular space of the Fighting Qi Continent.
Entering Ancient Dragon Island required a unique spatial passage!
And ever since Zhu Kun disappeared, the originally vast Ancient Dragon Island had split into four parts.
It split into East Dragon Island, West Dragon Island, North Dragon Island, and South Dragon Island!
The West, North, and South Dragon Islands had all produced new Dragon Kings, but only East Dragon Island had been painstakingly searching for the Dragon Emperor all these years... "Zi Yan, can you sense the location of Ancient Dragon Island?"
Xiao Yi slowly turned his head, looking at Zi Yan, who was now a mature Dragon Emperor, and asked in a deep voice.
Zi Yan nodded: "I seem to have a feeling in my heart..."
Immediately, Zi Yan closed her eyes slightly, her fingertip gently touching the Dragon Emperor's mark on her brow!
Then, with her other hand, she casually raised it, effortlessly constructing a spatial teleportation passage directly to Ancient Dragon Island!
The Void Ancient Dragon Clan was inherently skilled in the Power of Space. Even though Zi Yan had only just entered the Dou Sheng Realm, her mastery of the Power of Space already far surpassed that of other Dou Sheng experts of the same level... "This spatial passage leads directly to Ancient Dragon Island..."
Zi Yan slowly spoke, but her expression was serious, and she did not immediately step into the spatial passage.
Although Zi Yan was stronger, had a higher Realm, and a larger Physical Body now, she spoke less.
But Xiao Yi could tell that although Zi Yan's strength had reached the Dou Sheng Realm and she knew her identity as an Void Ancient Dragon, she still had some fear regarding the unknown Ancient Dragon Island and the Void Ancient Dragon Clan she had never met.
Immediately, Xiao Yi slowly stepped forward, looked at Zi Yan, and gently said:
"Don't be afraid, Zi Yan..."
"Although my strength is not as great as yours now, I and the Ancestor will accompany you on this journey..."
"Moreover, you are now the Dragon Emperor!"
Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Zi Yan also took a deep breath, then nodded.
She was the first to step into the spatial passage.
Seeing this, Xiao Xuan only said softly:
"Let's go, Little Fellow..."
Immediately, Xiao Xuan and Xiao Yi also stepped into the spatial tunnel.
"Ancestor, how much has your strength recovered now?"
Inside the spatial tunnel, Xiao Yi turned to Xiao Xuan and asked softly.
After all, after Xiao Xuan consumed the soul essence dragon crystal fruit just now, Xiao Yi could feel that Xiao Xuan's Qi was even stronger than before.
However, with Xiao Yi's current Dou Zun level strength, it was naturally impossible for him to discern Xiao Xuan's true strength.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan first smiled faintly, then said in a deep voice:
"That soul essence dragon crystal fruit might truly be the product of a Dou Di's essence blood from an ancient method specializing in Soul cultivation, as Brother Zhu said..."
"The effect is truly miraculous; it was actually able to directly repair this fragment of my Soul into a complete Soul!"
"At this moment, I am perhaps only one Physical Body away from true resurrection..."
"As for my strength, I should be able to display the level of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng..."
Hearing this, Xiao Yi couldn't help but be slightly stunned!
Nine-Star Dou Sheng!
One must know that there were not many people on the Continent who had reached the Nine-Star Dou Sheng Realm now.
Only Gu Yuan, Hun Tiandi, Void Swallowing Flame, and the imprisoned Zhu Kun...
As for the Clan Chiefs of the other great ancient Families, they had not reached the Nine-Star Dou Sheng level.
Looking at it this way, apart from those four, Xiao Xuan was truly an invincible existence on the Fighting Qi Continent now...
But with such vast and powerful Soul Power, refining a Physical Body for him would also be a problem...
After all, even the bodies of ordinary Dou Sheng might find it difficult to withstand Xiao Xuan's incredibly powerful Soul Power...
However, just as Xiao Yi was pondering in his mind, a faint light slowly illuminated at the end of the passage.
A Void Realm slowly appeared before his eyes, and an island emitting a faint silver light floated within that space.
That was Ancient Dragon Island, no, it should be the East Dragon Island after the split...
