Chapter 1347: Chapter 1351 Tianheng Valley

After the South Heavenly Court’s top brass heard of the successful subjugation of the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon, they immediately allocated a great sum of money to the Beast Suppressing Sect, instructing them to specially look after the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon and ensure it was tamed into one of the Southern Heavenly Palace’s Suppressing Beasts.

The Zhendi Beast was already the second-tier Suppressing Beast of the Southern Heavenly Palace. Just one Executioner Cauldron Dragon was sufficient to secure an area within a thousand kilometers of the palace’s territory, not to mention wiping out any invading foreign demons cleanly.

The Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon was clearly on the same tier as the Executioner Cauldron Dragon. Having an additional top-tier Suppressing Beast enhanced the foundation and strength of the entire South Heavenly Court.

Thus, businessmen quickly spotted an opportunity in the South Heavenly Court, launching a frenzy of beast-blood acquisitions...

The arrival of the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon practically birthed a small dragon food industry.

Unfortunately, the money wasn’t directly assigned to Zhu Minglang; it had to pass through Huang Chang’s hands, as his faction oversaw procurement. Otherwise, Zhu Minglang could have squeezed considerable profit from the funds!

"Even with a salary of three hundred Liuli, it still isn’t enough to cover Reverse Spot’s food supply for ten days... The Moon Radiance Dragon is even more of a money pit." Zhu Minglang sighed in relief for coming up with a plan that let the Immortal Sect help him rear dragons. Without it, even if the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon returned strong, Zhu Minglang would’ve had to let it roam in the wild to hunt for food on its own.

Thinking about it this way, the Sword Spirit Dragon’s flare issue wasn’t as urgent.

The Moon Radiance Dragon’s expenses were already astronomical—if Sword Spirit Dragon, a Solar Corona Level creature, followed him, it might starve.

...

The Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon, living well and eating well, gradually recovered the energy lost during its captivity within the dungeon well. Its cultivation base even restored to Moon Radiance God Divine Monarch Level.

The Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon recounted its experiences over the years.

As a matter of fact, it only woke up about twenty years ago.

After waking, it drifted and wandered, going through Reincarnation Transformation, which started from its weakest state. Fortunately, relying on past experience and memories, the young Earthbound Dragon successfully navigated several dangerous and vulnerable stages until reaching adulthood.

Unfortunately, during adulthood, it was discovered by some Immortal Heroes, resulting in its confrontation with South Heavenly Court’s Suppressing Immortal, Master Huang Kun.

At the time, Huang Kun exerted every effort to seal the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon in the dungeon well, spending ten years draining the dragon’s vital energy, and even summoning a celestial powerhouse like Ji Yuanye...

In simple terms, the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon was low-profile, stable, and cautiously growing, only to be detected by Huang Kun during adulthood, leading to its ten-year imprisonment.

The Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon was still in its adult phase, meaning it had another transformation stage ahead.

This also implied that the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon possessed the bloodline potential to break through to Solar Corona Level. If not for the ten-year captivity hindering its ascension, it might already have reached Solar Corona Level alongside Sword Spirit Dragon!

"That old scoundrel, I’ll make sure to teach him a lesson when the chance arises." Zhu Minglang wouldn’t let the matter go easily; he jotted it down for future reckoning after achieving Mahayana.

Before its imprisonment, the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon’s cultivation had reached Moon Radiance God King. Currently, it was at Moon Radiance God Divine Monarch level. To fully restore it to Moon Radiance God King Level Realm, it would require significant time for recuperation and adjustment.

Moreover, the South Heavenly Court’s goal in taming it involved suppressing its cultivation as much as possible. Expecting them to help its cultivation recover was unlikely, unless Reverse Spot was fully tamed into a compliant Suppressing Beast.

Though it couldn’t leave Black Coral Island, the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon remained relatively free. Zhu Minglang also gradually utilized the South Heavenly Court’s resources to assist Reverse Spot with its recovery!

...

Time passed swiftly, and before Zhu Minglang knew it, he had served as the caretaker of Black Coral Island for half a year. Utilizing the resources from his thriving territory, Zhu Minglang successfully nurtured the Nine-tailed Dragon, Gluttonous Dragon, and Chongwang Dragon to Peak God King Level.

As recognition of Zhu Minglang’s contribution in taming the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon, the South Heavenly Court rewarded him with a Six Divine Cleansing—a Skeleton Millennium Pearl, an exceptional spirit pearl buried in the deepest seabed.

This artifact was a perfect match for the Chongwang Dragon, granting it a share of the Six Divine Cleansing.

After months of effort, Maid Xiao Xiao managed to cultivate Shang Mei Fruit from the soil of Evening Cloud Palace, bestowing the Little Jiuwei Dragon with Obscure Fox Fire. It was now barely capable of matching Little Glutton in combat over a dozen rounds.

Of course, Little Glutton’s bullying days against Little Jiuwei Dragon were numbered, as Zhu Minglang planned to secure the final piece of divine cleansing for Little Jiuwei Dragon’s advancement within the year, ensuring its ascension to Moon Radiance God Dragon Son!

"Zhu Lang, I heard you possess an affinity physique?" Weaver Star Fairy offhandedly asked him early one morning over tea.

"It’s a divine gate I awakened upon ascending God Realm, known as God Dye Affinity," Zhu Minglang replied without reservation.

This was how he explained being close to powerful Divine Beasts.

"It’s a particularly rare divine method in the God Realm. No wonder the Paired Immortals haven’t resisted you much; they appear to show signs of transforming into dragons," Weaver Star Fairy remarked.

"The Paired Immortals can transform into dragons?" Zhu Minglang asked in surprise.

"All beings can transform into dragons; why wouldn’t the Paired Immortals? But mind you, you’re only entrusted with overseeing them. Even if they transform into dragons, you can’t form a pact with them," Weaver Star Fairy warned.

"Understood." Zhu Minglang nodded.

The Paired Immortals were extraordinary by nature as auspicious Divine Birds. If they showed signs of transforming, their Immortal Dragon realm would compare closely to the mythical Golden Crow.

The two little Paired Immortals were evidently raised meticulously by Weaver Star Fairy for many years. Entrusting Zhu Minglang with their care certainly did not mean they were gifting them to him.

"The Beast Suppressing Sect holds you in high regard, and even Master Huang Kun praises you greatly. You’ve managed the obligation of raising the Swallow Immortals well. Initially, I intended to accompany you to secure the Nine-tailed Dragon’s divine cleansing opportunity, aiding its advancement to Moon Radiance, but there’s an urgent matter. You should head to Tianheng Valley with your junior sister, Gong Yuexia, and upon your return, I will personally accompany you to Qinghu Tianshan to retrieve the Fox Spirit Bead..." Weaver Star Fairy instructed.

"Understood!" Zhu Minglang readily agreed without hesitation.

The Fox Spirit Bead would serve as a highly beneficial divine cleansing, stabilizing the Nine-tailed Dragon’s innate talents and abilities upon reaching Moon Radiance Goddess level.

"This journey carries unpredictable risks. You and Gong Yuexia must take extra caution. She is already en route; you can rendezvous with her at Tianheng Valley," Weaver Star Fairy said.

"I’ll set off immediately," Zhu Minglang replied.

...

Zhu Minglang followed his elder sister’s instructions and journeyed to Tianheng Valley.

In truth, Tianheng Valley was quite a peculiar place. It was said to be the boundary between two Sky Fields, some even claiming it was a colossal rift in the celestial dome—a conduit enabling instantaneous traversal across millions of miles.

Thus, individuals from different Sky Fields would appear in Tianheng Valley, making it a mysterious and distinctive gray zone.

Being a gray zone, it naturally attracted all manner of groups, including evildoers and demon lords, rendering it a chaotic and dangerous place—a lawless, shadowy corner.
