Thousands of Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan members cheered loudly.
The people who followed Qi Lin to Ancient Dragon Island were also startled by Zhu Kun's breakthrough to Dou Di, stopping their actions and looking at the terrifying anomaly above Ancient Dragon Island.
Such a commotion was truly shocking; the entire Ancient Dragon Island was enveloped by the anomaly.
And the aura emanating from within the anomaly made even their souls tremble involuntarily.
At the same time!
Beyond the void, the Beast Region!
One should know that Ancient Dragon Island was not like the Ancient Emperor Cave Abode, which had Tuo She Ancient Emperor's barrier to conceal anomalies.
As Zhu Kun broke through to Dou Di, a purple-gold light pierced through infinite space, appearing above the Beast Region and dyeing an area of a thousand li in a purple-gold hue.
Winds rose and clouds surged, and beneath the purple-gold sky, it was as if angry waves rolled.
A supreme aura spread out, as if the entire world was about to prostrate itself under this pressure.
Billions of living beings trembled under this pressure, their souls quivering.
Countless powerful individuals looked up at the purple-gold sky, their expressions shocked.
What exactly happened?
Why did such an anomaly suddenly erupt from the heavens and earth?
And where did this pressure come from?
Countless powerful individuals were puzzled, but the strong ones within the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Clan quickly noticed the signs.
They sensed that this pressure originated from within the void.
Among the three great beast clans of the Beast Region, if one were to say which clan had the deepest mastery of spatial power, it would undoubtedly be the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan.
Within the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan!
Clan Leader Huang Tian stood in the sky, gazing at the distant purple-gold sky.
He was a late-stage five-star Dou Sheng, so he perceived more from that purple-gold sky.
But precisely for this reason, he paid extra attention to this matter.
Because that pressure, although weakened considerably after being diminished by layers of space, still gave him an unusual feeling.
This level of pressure had already exceeded his known scope.
Thinking of this, Huang Tian took a deep breath and waved his hand.
A spatial rift immediately tore open in front of him.
Through the spatial rift, his gaze stretched into the boundless void, passing through layers of space, and he saw that expanse of purple-gold.
The pressure emanating from there was hundreds, even thousands of times stronger than here; even with his late-stage five-star Dou Sheng strength, he felt a strong sense of suppression.
"Who exactly is this divine being?"
"Could it be a Dou Di?"
"How is this possible? The Dou Qi Continent hasn't had a Dou Di for tens of thousands of years."
"Moreover, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan only has a few members left; how could a Dou Di appear?"
Beside Huang Tian, several Elder-level Dou Shengs also discussed amongst themselves.
At this moment, Huang Tian shook his head with a solemn expression.
"The current Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan indeed only has a few members, but don't forget how the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan declined."
As soon as these words were spoken, an Elder beside Huang Tian said, "How could we not know this? The most important reason for the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan's decline, even its split, was the mysterious disappearance of the previous Dragon Emperor; many speculated he had already fallen."
Before he finished speaking, the group's movements suddenly paused.
Another Elder exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be that the Clan Leader suspects the long-lost previous Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan has returned, and this commotion is his doing?"
Huang Tian shook his head and said, "There's just that possibility. Of course, I also hope I'm just overthinking it."
Throughout history, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan have always been at odds.
Especially during the era when the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan was powerful, they often hunted Heavenly Demon Phoenixes, treating the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan as food ingredients.
It wasn't until the mysterious disappearance of the previous Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, and the subsequent decline of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, that the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan gradually escaped from that past shadow.
Therefore, once the Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan returns, even if the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan is not annihilated, their fate will likely not be much better.
Huang Tian said, "When you return, instruct the clan members not to leave the clan territory casually in the near future.
Additionally, select some young talents with excellent bloodlines and bring them to the pre-prepared spatial secret realm. Should the clan face hardship, they will be the last spark of our Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan."
The Elders of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan looked at Huang Tian upon hearing this.
The latter's expression was solemn, clearly serious, so they immediately straightened their faces and nodded gravely.
Unlike the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Clan Leader Yao Xiaotian and other powerful individuals also noticed the astonishing anomaly appearing above the Beast Region.
However, after the initial shock, they quickly returned to normal.
Yao Xiaotian even smiled and said to the surrounding Elders, "No matter who that powerful individual is, we won't provoke him, so why meddle in others' affairs?"
Of course, this was also a display of Yao Xiaotian's cautious nature.
After all, among the three great races of the Beast Region, the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Clan was the most severely declined.
Although they still seemingly held the title of one of the three great clans, compared to the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, the prestige and power of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Clan were declining year by year.
If this continued, it was feared that after some time, they would completely fall out of the position of the three great clans of the Beast Region.
However, the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Clan also had its own way of survival.
While they dealt heavy blows to the weak, they treated the strong with extreme caution and respect.
...
Ancient Dragon Island!
A hearty laugh echoed across the sky, and then Zhu Kun's tall figure suddenly appeared above Ancient Dragon Island.
"I, Emperor Zhu Kun, break through to Dou Di today, hailed as the Dragon Emperor!"
The voice was mighty, resounding through the void, and everyone heard Zhu Kun's voice.
Thousands of Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan members were filled with passion, shouting in unison.
"Dragon Emperor!"
"Dragon Emperor!"
The people who followed Qi Lin to Ancient Dragon Island looked at that majestic figure in the sky, their expressions greatly shaken.
"Is that person the Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan?"
"Indeed, his aura is extraordinary!"
After emerging from seclusion, Zhu Kun noticed Qi Lin below. He immediately reined in his aura, descended from the sky, and arrived in front of Qi Lin.
"Congratulations, Uncle Zhu Kun, on breaking through to Dou Di!" Qi Lin said with a smile, cupping his hands.
"Hahaha, if it weren't for the Ancient Emperor Creation Pill refined by my virtuous nephew, I'm afraid I would never have had the chance to break through to Dou Di in this lifetime. Uncle should be thanking you!" Zhu Kun laughed heartily, also with a hint of emotion.
The two chatted for a few more sentences.
Then Qi Lin introduced Qi Tian and the others to Zhu Kun.
After learning the identities of Qi Tian and Xu Qian, Zhu Kun showed no airs, laughing loudly and saying, "So it's Brother Qi Tian and Sister-in-law, I've heard much about you."
"Haha, Brother Zhu Kun, you're too kind."
Qi Tian and Xu Qian, seeing this, did not appear constrained at all due to Zhu Kun's strength.
However, both of them felt proud of Qi Lin in their hearts.
Because they both knew very well that the reason Zhu Kun treated them so politely was all because of their precious son.
For the next three days, Zhu Kun held a grand banquet.
During the banquet, he also subtly brought up Zi Yan in front of Qi Tian and Xu Qian.
Upon learning that Zhu Kun's daughter and their son seemed to have an unusual relationship, Qi Tian and Xu Qian immediately became even more affectionate towards Zhu Kun.
After the banquet ended, Qi Lin received an interesting piece of news from the Tianshui Girl Group members.
The Three-Year Agreement was almost here!
