. Each exchange with them was like watching a gazelle hang from a tree branch for Lu XiaTian. The interplay of different Law Odes always led to new insights for him.This point was something Lu Xia Ti...Lu Xiaoteng felt a twinge of emotion. The other party was a generation younger than him, the Dragon King of the East Sea, with countless demon soldiers under his command. Although Rong Xu Dongzhu Hong Hao was the closest to the celestial level among the Heavenly Court's Golden Immortals, he generally wouldn't perform such grand rites. Previously, Ling Shan Jinxian and Han Chi Palace Master were not as powerful as Rong Xu Dongzhu. Although they showed respect to Rong Xu Dongzhu during their conversations, they treated each other as equals and weren't overly restrained in front of him.

In contrast, the old Dragon King Ao Tong adopted a much lower posture towards Rongxu Cave Master.

"Old Dragon King, I'm afraid you've been neglecting the management of your territory these days. As soon as I entered the waters under your jurisdiction, I encountered fog lice and ghost shrimps. If this were normal times, it wouldn't be a big deal, and I wouldn't want to upset the Old Dragon King. But now is a critical time. If the affairs of the Eastern Divine Saint are disrupted, leading to unfortunate consequences, Heaven will hold us accountable. Not only would the Old Dragon King suffer, but even I wouldn't be able to bear the blame."

The master of Rongxu Cave seemed more approachable than usual, but Lu Xia Tian could see at a glance the distance between him and the other person.

It seems that the pressure from heaven on the dragon race is indeed not an exaggeration. Ao Tong, the Dragon Palace master of one side, was so lacking in confidence when facing Rongxu Cave Master.

“As the Immortal has instructed, there have been many demons coming from the Desolate Sea recently. The waters have been affected, and Your Majesty has already sent troops to encircle and suppress them. We will certainly not allow external factors to interfere with the grand plan of the Immortal and the Eastern Dan Saint.”

Ao Tong smiled and made a gesture of invitation, "Please take your seats, Eastern Divine Saint, and all honorable celestial armies!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

The master of Rongxu Cave nodded, and he didn't insist any longer. After all, this time going to the Dragon Tomb to retrieve Dizang San still needed the cooperation of the other party. There was no need for Ao Tong to take action. As long as the other dragon clans made a little effort, it might lead to failure.

After all, obtaining the relics of Kitigarbha is not difficult. However, to maintain their efficacy, it requires someone as skilled in alchemy as Lu Xia Tian to handle them. This greatly limits its accessibility. Without the cooperation of the East Sea Dragon Palace, it would be impossible to complete. Living dragons are under the control of the Heavenly Court of Honghao. Those who have already died or are near death, slumbering in the dragon's tomb awaiting their final peace, are not so restrained. At this time, the dragon's tomb has become a unique secret realm for the dragons. Even idle golden immortals are unwilling to venture too deep within. Cultivation that is too high will be more restricted in the dragon's tomb. The resentment of the dead and uncontrolled dragons inside will not differentiate between an opponent being a Heavenly Court golden immortal or not.

The more oppression and discomfort a dragon experiences in life, the greater its resentment after death. Though Heaven has long been aware of this, it shows no signs of easing its suppression of the dragon race.

As for the resentment gathered in the dragon tomb, on one hand, the high-level officials of the Heavenly Court didn't pay much attention. After all, the living dragons couldn't cause much trouble, let alone those who had already fallen.

On the other hand, the Dragon Tomb is filled with a heavy sense of resentment. Even some dragons are reluctant to get too close, lest they be harmed by it. Let alone external threats entering, it would be difficult not to be influenced by the heavy dragon resentment within.

The lord of Rongxu Cave, Lu Xia Tian, and Mu Xia, Nie Tianhou, and several celestial immortals from Fan Xianzhou were personally invited to a banquet by the Dragon King of the East Sea.

And the thousands of immortal soldiers accompanying him were arranged to rest in other places, all the way into the deep sea. They saw many colorful jellyfish swaying gently like elves in the water.

Besides arranging a small number of marine guards, a large number of beautiful clam demons swayed their two clam shells behind them. Groups of fish demons held trays, and delicacies from the sea, like butterflies dancing among flowers, fluttered past.

At the far entrance, a large number of dragon soldiers from the sea clan guarded it. From these paddlefish, siren demons, and turtle demons with spines on their backs, Lu Xiaoteng faintly sensed the dragon aura emanating from them. It was just relatively more indifferent. Over the years, there have been many cases where powerful dragons combined with other sea demon clans to give birth to pouch children.

It's simply that with each generation, the dragon bloodline within their descendants becomes increasingly diluted. That's why the sea demons you see exude varying levels of dragon energy.

A semi-circular glazed light cover seemed to shroud a small palace. Just outside the glass dome, there was a vast expanse of jewels and pearls. The rumors that dragons love luminous treasures were indeed true. Just beyond the Dragon Palace, there was this road paved with gems, guarded by hordes of aquatic monster soldiers, which showed that the East Sea Dragon Palace was certainly not a frugal and simple one.

As we reached the entrance to the Dragon Palace, two turtle demons wearing scholar's hats, looking rather comical, each took out a staff topped with a fist-sized glowing orb. Pointing them towards the void, they suddenly opened the palace gates wide.

The old Dragon King Ao Tong made a gesture of invitation, and Lu Xia Tian followed him into the Dragon Palace. Only then did he realize that from the outside, the Dragon Palace didn't seem very large, but its interior was countless times grander than what could be seen from the outside.

A golden carp swims back and forth in the water, shaking its head and tail. The shimmering jellyfish, sea anemones, and every now and then a dazzling jewel that covers the seabed or the top of an underwater hill.

Words like "glorious" and "magnificent" cannot even begin to describe the splendor of the Dragon Palace before me.

"From the outside, the Dragon Palace appears to be just a small corner, but once you enter it, you discover that there is another world within. It can encompass this entire world. The Dragon Palace is truly a remarkable feat." Lu Xia Tian sincerely praised.

“Eastern Dan Saint is too courteous. This is a treasure from the Immortal Demon Battlefield, a Dragon Clan treasure called Zhu Tian Stone. From the outside world, the Dragon Palace looks like half a pearl floating at the bottom of the sea. The Dragon Palace is indeed a bit too extravagant. My Dragon Clan is greedy for pleasure, but we were warned by above not to affect the Celestial Army too much. After receiving approval from above, we only then used Zhu Tian Stone to cover the entire Dragon Palace, isolating the Dragon Palace from the outside world.” Old Dragon King Ao Tong was quite courteous towards Lu Xia Tian.”

"It's just hearsay. This time, the Eastern Dan Saint has defeated the top-tier Xuan Xian of Yu Xuan Heavenly Court, a third-rank Dan Saint. In the future, the Eastern Dan Saint's achievements will certainly not be inferior to mine. By then, this Dragon Palace will be hard for the Eastern Dan Saint to look at." The Old Dragon King chuckled.

Lu Xia Tian looked around, the entire East Sea Dragon Palace was a picture of extravagance and indulgence. The palace was opulent and extravagant to the extreme. It seemed that while Heaven held some control over the dragon race, they did not interfere with their flamboyant culture, even showing signs of tacit encouragement.

The East Sea Dragon Palace was well aware of the intentions of the Honghuo Heavenly Court, and in fact, the East Sea Dragon Palace itself had a similar inclination. Generations of extravagance had led to many who fell prey to it, becoming lost within its allure. However, when the Honghuo Heavenly Court faced war, they would also requisition some of the East Sea Dragon Palace's forces. After all, the East Sea Dragon Palace encompassed boundless seas. To neglect such a vast resource would be a pity for the Honghuo Heavenly Court.ge here. If this place were lost, it wouldn't be a big loss, but a huge blow to face. This was the first time she had taken on such an important task from her clan. If she failed, how would those brot...
