Chapter 897: Chapter 907: Divine Dragon General! (Four updates)

At this moment, on the ship returning to Xuan Country.

In the room, dishes sent by others were placed on the table, but Tang Zhong didn’t eat.

Instead, he kept staring at the stone in his palm.

The dark yellow stone lay in Tang Zhong’s hand.

He clutched it tightly, and at that moment, he felt a surge of powerful soul power.

It had to be said, though it was only half a stone, the soul power it emitted was truly formidable.

If he could obtain the other half, that mysterious octopus would reappear. That would certainly be exhilarating.

Then Tang Zhong’s gaze shifted to the small piece of stone he had obtained from the High Priest’s heart. He held it up, inspecting it closely.

The small stone glimmered with white light.

He remembered that when this stone was embedded in the High Priest’s heart, it granted the High Priest immense defensive power.

Could it be that this stone’s ability was defense?

He held the stone in his palm again.

In his hand, the stone began to emit a faint light. Immediately after, Tang Zhong saw his fist change color, as if it had been coated by the stone.

Staring at the strange transformation of his hand, Tang Zhong marveled. He quickly walked to the wooden table, and without using any Blood Power, he punched it lightly.

In an instant, with a loud bang, the wooden table was smashed into a hole, scattering shards of wood everywhere.

Tang Zhong’s pupils widened. He knew how much force he had used—it was merely a light tap—yet such destruction resulted. It seemed the stone had granted him incredible strength.

Soon after, he unclenched his fist, and the stone-like texture of his skin gradually disappeared, reverting to flesh and blood.

Looking again at the stone in his palm, Tang Zhong almost understood its ability—it could turn the human body into stone, rendering it indestructible.

But this was just a small fragment of the stone. One could only imagine how powerful it would be if the entire stone were in his hands!

Thinking of this, Tang Zhong recalled Egypt.

It seemed he would need to visit Egypt and investigate.

The High Priest had been a member of the ancient Sacrificial Clan. This clan must be living in seclusion; otherwise, the High Priest in Lucao Kingdom would have long been discovered by that clan.

Moreover, it was the first time he had ever heard of the Sacrificial Clan.

This race must be hiding from the world.

He absolutely had to visit Egypt.

At this moment, Tang Zhong recalled the shadowy white bones. The bones had come to life and moved like humans. The person controlling those bones was certainly no ordinary figure. Moreover, the power of those bones was immense.

Who could it be, and why were they also targeting this stone?

Tang Zhong truly had no clue. He only knew that the person behind the white bones was incredibly strong, beyond outrageous, transcending the limits of human ability. Who could it possibly be?

Could it be the Martial Supreme?

Now that Tang Zhong had reached the Martial Arts Peak, he finally understood how extraordinary a Supreme truly was!

They must be immensely powerful.

Though Tang Zhong had never heard of someone as legendary as the Martial Supreme, he knew such an existence must surely be real. For instance, the High Priest’s strength was already astonishing, yet there was still the mysterious Sacrificial Clan behind him. Even without considering the enigmatic race itself, just their backing strength alone indicated they were anything but simple.

It seemed the world was indeed far more complicated than it appeared!

Back when Tang Zhong was just a small soldier king, he had no idea that martial arts even existed.

It was only when he set foot into the martial arts world that he discovered how wondrous it was.

Even now, as someone revered for achieving the Martial Arts Peak, the wonders of this world remained a mystery to him.

How many more unknowns were there in this world that Tang Zhong had yet to uncover?

As he thought about it, Tang Zhong still had no leads. Perhaps only by reaching that stage would he find out.

Weiwei, wait for me. I will definitely bring you back to life!

Now, five stones have already appeared. There are still three stones left—where could their clues be?

Tang Zhong truly had no way of knowing for now. He could only take one step at a time.

As the ship sailed into Xuan Country, Tang Zhong instructed Su Ao and the others to return to the Crown Prince’s Club, while he quickly made his way to the Dragon Group.

It was Li Linglong who came to greet Tang Zhong.

"How was it? This brother’s assistance wasn’t too shabby, right?" Li Linglong walked up and threw an arm over Tang Zhong’s shoulder.

Hearing this, Tang Zhong instantly realized why the people of the Crown Prince’s Club and Si Bo Island had returned—it was this guy pulling strings behind the scenes.

"Not bad!"

"You didn’t let me down! You gave those Lucao Kingdom bastards such a thrashing. You know what? Not long ago, those Lucao Kingdom fools actually apologized to the Dragon Group and begged for our forgiveness. The entire Dragon Group is praising you now!" Li Linglong said.

Tang Zhong simply smiled lightly.

"Let’s go. I’ll take you to meet Old General Peng Yuan. I think you’re going to like his second piece of news!" Li Linglong said with a mysterious grin.

Tang Zhong was startled. What could it be?

In Old General Peng Yuan’s office.

Old General Peng Yuan was already informed of Tang Zhong’s exploits.

Looking at Tang Zhong, the old general said, "What you accomplished this time is impressive. Singlehandedly suppressing a nation—you truly have the air of Yan Chihuo from back in the day!"

Hearing Yan Chihuo’s name again, Tang Zhong was taken aback. Almost every time, this name seemed to come up.

"Who is this Yan Chihuo?"

Old General Peng Yuan smiled. "He is the number one powerhouse of Xuan Country!"

"The number one powerhouse? Is he at the Martial Arts Peak Perfection stage?" Tang Zhong asked eagerly.

Old General Peng Yuan simply gave Tang Zhong a mysterious look. "That, I truly do not know. What I do know is that thirty years ago, he had already reached Martial Arts Peak Perfection. As for his cultivation level now, I couldn’t say!"

Martial Arts Peak from thirty years ago!

Such strength must be unparalleled in this world.

Tang Zhong’s curiosity was piqued.

"Don’t be surprised. Yan Chihuo is the backbone of Xuan Country. Without him, this country would have been overrun by Ability Users and martial arts experts long ago," Old General Peng Yuan said. "Now, let’s talk about you!"

"Me? What fortunate news could I have?" Tang Zhong looked at Old General Peng Yuan in confusion.

"What do you think?" Old General Peng Yuan smiled enigmatically.

"I have no idea!" Tang Zhong shook his head.

Even Li Linglong, standing nearby, was puzzled. He had never seen Old General Peng Yuan with such a mischievous demeanor before.

"Then, Tang Zhong, listen to my command!" Suddenly, Old General Peng Yuan’s expression turned serious.

"At your service!" Tang Zhong immediately stood at attention.

"Famed General Tang—your name resounds like thunder, bringing down Luo Country, decimating Bei Country, crushing Lucao Kingdom. You are a prominent hero of Xuan Country. Thus, today, you are granted the title of Divine Dragon General!" Old General Peng Yuan announced solemnly.

After speaking, he looked at Tang Zhong with a big smile. "So, surprised or not?"

Tang Zhong shook his head.

Meanwhile, Li Linglong’s eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets.

"Oh my god, a titled general! Tang Zhong, you’ve hit the jackpot!"
