Without ceremony, Chen Moxuan gently raised his hand, and an invisible force lifted Long Yunhua, causing him to stand involuntarily.
What I said about the Da Ao Kingdom is true; the Ancient Evil Demon, Blood Earth, has indeed returned from the ashes. I intend to rebuild the Yun Miao Heavenly Court. Recently, I have been surveying various Mortal Empires, seeking the strongest hundred thousand soldiers to assist in their cultivation, so they can reach at least the minimum level of Celestial Soldier.
Upon hearing this, Long Yunhua felt a mix of joy and worry, his expression complex. As a member of a thousand-year-old family, he certainly understood what the Heavenly Court represented. Such legends had circulated from the major Holy Lands long ago. However, due to the passage of time, it had gradually faded into mere folklore.
Long Yunhua felt joy at the prospect; if he could truly become a Celestial Soldier, it would bring unprecedented glory to the Long Family and even the entire Northern Territory—something their ancestors had never achieved! Yet he also felt concern; besides the Mortal Empires, the major Holy Lands were filled with talented individuals. Competing for those hundred thousand spots across the entire Yun Miao Sheng Zhou would be nothing short of fierce.
In this intense competition, did the Tian Gang Battle Division truly stand a chance? Long Yunhua furrowed his brow, his gaze flickering with determination as he spoke resolutely. "With the Celestial Being above us, the Tian Gang Battle Division has guarded the Northern Territory for a thousand years without ever suffering defeat. My Army is certainly not just a name without substance. If this opportunity arises, I will lead the disciples of the Tian Gang Battle Division to prove our strength and become one of those hundred thousand Celestial Soldiers! No matter how difficult the road ahead may be, my Long Family disciples will give their all and not let you down!"
As he said this, Long Yunhua straightened his back and looked earnestly at Chen Moxuan. Chen Moxuan nodded in satisfaction and praised him, "A tiger does not father a dog."
Long Yunhua couldn't help but feel overjoyed at this compliment from the Celestial Being. "Thank you for your praise!"
Beside them, Chen Feng was filled with excitement and chimed in. The reputation of the Tian Gang Battle Division was well-known; if they could truly join forces and create brilliance together, it would be a wonderful thing.
Chen Feng had initially thought that recruiting the Tian Gang Battle Division would require considerable persuasion and might even lead to conflict. However, he did not expect that with just a few simple words from Ancestor, Long Yunhua—who was wholeheartedly loyal to Da Ao—would be moved and eager to become one of Ancestor's subordinates.
Observing Long Yunhua's determined gaze, Chen Feng pondered silently. The Ancestor was indeed extraordinary; he could easily win people over. I must also work harder and cultivate diligently; I cannot fall behind others, especially not lose face in front of Long Yunhua.
With this thought in mind, Chen Feng straightened his back and resolutely declared, "Ancestor, I too am willing to strive for becoming a Celestial Soldier; I will not disappoint you!"
Chen Moxuan smiled lightly before patting both of their shoulders and turning to walk outside with steady steps.
In the center of Dragon City stood the Flying Dragon Statue, prominently displayed in the city square. Every detail of the statue was intricately carved, with the dragon's eyes gleaming with life and its scales shimmering brilliantly. The entire sculpture appeared so lifelike that it seemed ready to soar into the sky at any moment.
Long Yunhua and Chen Feng hurriedly followed behind, their expressions filled with confusion. They could not understand why they had suddenly arrived at this place. Long Yunhua pondered quietly; this Flying Dragon Statue was the Long City Token, representing the glory and protection of the Long Family. Was the immortal's action meant to convey some profound meaning?
He closely observed Chen Moxuan, attempting to find a clue in the immortal's movements. Chen Moxuan spoke softly, "In the blink of an eye, a thousand years have passed." He took out a Bronze Disk from his Na Ring. The disk was engraved with intricate symbols, ancient and mysterious.
As Long Yunhua and Chen Feng were still puzzled, Chen Moxuan gently placed his palm on the Divine Dragon Statue. In an instant, the statue's eyes emitted countless golden rays, resembling two blazing suns that illuminated the entire Dragon City square. It felt as if Shen Long was soaring above, clouds rolling in waves, and the faint sound of a Dragon's Roar could be heard.
This spectacle caused both soldiers and ordinary citizens within Dragon City to kneel in reverence, their faces filled with awe as if they were witnessing the true descent of Shen Long. Long Yunhua and Chen Feng also felt an overwhelming pressure that compelled them to lower their heads, their hearts shaken beyond words.
They looked up at the Divine Dragon Statue, which appeared even more lifelike under the golden light, as if it had truly come to life and was about to take flight into the heavens. Long Yunhua was immensely shocked; he had never known that his ancestors had constructed this statue with such extraordinary properties. His eyes widened in disbelief, his mouth slightly agape.
To him, the statue transformed from a cold stone figure into a sacred being that seemed to possess life. Just as he was lost in astonishment, the Divine Dragon Statue slowly exhaled a glowing orb from its mouth. The orb traced a brilliant arc through the air before landing steadily on Chen Moxuan's Bronze Disk.
At the moment of contact between the orb and the Bronze Disk, it was as if an invisible force drew them together, merging into one and radiating an even more dazzling light. Once everything settled and the pressure dissipated, Chen Feng quickly stood up, his eyes sparkling with curiosity and awe. He couldn't help but ask his ancestor, "What exactly is this?"
Chen Moxuan smiled gently at the still-glowing Bronze Disk and orb before replying, "This orb has always been kept within the dragon statue here in Dragon City, placed atop the Dragon Vein to allow it to absorb human fortune for my use."
Chen Feng listened but still did not understand its purpose.
After Chen Moxuan finished speaking, he began to reminisce. In fact, this child, or rather this Si Nan, was something Chen Moxuan had set up long ago specifically to search for the Kaitian Seal. The Heavenly Divine Seal and the Five Continents each held one. When the Heavenly Court had not yet reappeared in this era, no one knew where this divine seal was hidden. Initially, everyone relied on luck and blindly searched for it. However, gradually, each person began to figure out their own methods of searching.
The Si Nan in Chen Moxuan's hands was his unique means of locating the Kaitian Seal. He had not used this Si Nan before for two reasons: first, because his master was injured and it was unwise to act rashly; second, his master seemed not very concerned about this matter, and Chen Moxuan did not wish to speak too much about it.
But now, it seemed there was an invisible barrier between him and his master. Certain actions and words from his master always made him feel that something was being concealed. Since that was the case, Chen Moxuan decided to act according to his own thoughts. As for whether his master would disagree with his actions, so what? A glimmer of determination flashed in Chen Moxuan's eyes.
If he couldn't fight, then he would don the yellow robe! It was destined by fate; whether his master agreed or not could not change this fact. Whether he succeeded or failed, it was all part of destiny! With this thought in mind, Chen Moxuan's smile deepened.
At that moment, Tiger Brother seemed to sense his thoughts and whispered, "Be careful of the Immortal Emperor locking you up!"
Chen Moxuan raised an eyebrow and replied with a smile, "Hmph, I'm not afraid of her!"
