After receiving the Dragon Suppressing Whip, Xia Yuyang was about to thank Third Aunt Wang again, but her grandmother smiled kindly and shook her head, indicating that he did not need to be so polite. Then, she blew out a breath of fairy air and sent him and the donkey on their way.
In the blink of an eye, he was back in his hotel room. Da Bai was pacing around him anxiously.
"Your family!" Upon seeing that Xia Yuyang had returned safely, Da Bai pounced toward him in excitement. However, he stopped halfway and quickly hid in a corner, shivering.
Da Bai, what's wrong?" Xia Yuyang was a little baffled and wanted to walk over to see him.
"My lord…what are you holding in your hand?”Da Bai dodged backward again, refusing to let him get close.
"Oh! This is the Dragon Suppressing Whip." Upon hearing Da Bai's question, Xia Yuyang came to a sudden realization. Flood dragons were the leaders of the spiritual monsters, and even flood dragons would have to retreat from the Dragon Suppressing Whip, let alone a small monster like Da Bai who had just attained the Dao and transformed. Although the five great immortal sects were named after immortals, they were ultimately still in the Demon Dao.
"I found Third Aunt Wang to calculate the source of the rain disaster. There's a flood dragon undergoing its tribulation in J-City.”
"Jiaojiao…?" Da Bai stammered. The spiritual energy in the new Heavenly Dao was thin, and even small demons like them could barely cultivate. How could there be a big demon like this?
"Yes, it's going into the sea. I have to go over and take a look. Otherwise, J City will really be flooded.”Xia Yuyang planned to call the Special Investigations Department, the Xuan An Temple, and the people from the Netherworld over to help the flood dragon transcend its tribulation. At the same time, he planned to evacuate the residents by the river to prevent the matter from being exposed.
"Da Bai, don't go out. I have a treasure given to me by Third Aunt Wang, so I'll be fine. The flood dragon's aura will suppress you, and you'll feel uncomfortable there.”
Xia Yuyang could tell that Da Bai was worried and uneasy. He reached out and gently pinched Da Bai's slender claws, comforting him with a few words.
"Wait for my good news." As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yuyang put on his self-made mask and hid his figure in the air.
Under his notice, several groups of people gathered by the river. To Xia Yuyang's surprise, the first to arrive was actually the people from the Special Investigations Department.
"Mr. Wu Chang, I'll leave J-City's safety to you.”Gu Peishi led the elite members of the Special Investigations Department and saluted him solemnly.
It was just a short sentence, but the responsibility it contained was as heavy as Mount Tai. Xia Yuyang was also under a lot of psychological pressure, but he did not want to spread unnecessary nervousness. He could only pretend to be calm and silently nod in agreement.
There was a reason why the Special Investigations Department could arrive so quickly. In the past two days, the observatory had conducted many calculations on the cause of the abnormal rain. Although they could not find the reason, they found that a dense vortex had appeared in the river of J-City and was spreading outwards from the center of the river. The rain on the river was even more terrifying as if the sky had broken through and poured water out. The weather station immediately reported the situation. In the end, this urgent report was submitted to Gu Peishi's case. After understanding the relevant information, she immediately led her team to the river in J-City. On the way, she received a notice from the underworld that the flood dragon had entered the sea.
Not long after the Special Investigations Department arrived, the Netherworld and Xuan An Temple also arrived.
"Brother Xia, are you sure that the flood dragon essence is going into the sea?”Xie Bian had seen this ancient creature before, but he had never had any direct contact with it. Even so, he knew how powerful this creature was.
"I'm sure. It's the divination given by Third Aunt Wang.”Xia Yuyang stared at the whirlpool in the middle of the river and tensed up.
"Then what should we do now? Everyone from Xuan An Hall is willing to do their best. If there is anything that can help, little friend Xia can just ask.”After Daoist Priest Zhang received Xia Yuyang's news, he was also filled with shock. He could not guess that an ancient creature would be involved in a rain disaster.
"I need the Special Investigations Department to evacuate the people within a five-kilometer radius first. The rest of you can help set up a smokescreen and try your best to keep the secret of the flood dragon's appearance.”
The flood dragon crossed the border and flooded hundreds of miles. Before transforming into a dragon, although the flood dragon had already formed its dragon bones, it did not have the power of a true dragon to soar into the clouds. It could only raise a torrential flood and use the surging water to protect it into the sea. The heavy rain when the flood dragon was undergoing its tribulation was firstly to store the flood and secondly to cover it. If it could withstand the lightning tribulation and cross the sea, it would truly transform into a dragon.
When Gu Peishi led the Special Investigations Department to evacuate the crowd, the flood dragon in the middle of the river had obviously reached the critical moment of transcending its tribulation. Thunder clouds gathered above the river, and muffled thunder rolled through the dark clouds. Suddenly, waves as high as a wall rose on the river surface, and a huge golden shadow was faintly discernible in the mixed river water. It was a golden flood dragon!
At this moment, the Golden Flood Dragon Lan Feng was not feeling well either. After he cultivated the Flood Dragon, the old Heavenly Dao began to fall. He followed the will of the heavens and entered a deep sleep, waiting for the change of the Heavenly Dao. Who knew that a few days ago, someone forcefully woke him up from the bottom of the river and even promised to help him cultivate. He wanted to convince him to conspire with him to deceive the Heavenly Dao.
When Lan Feng was still a small snake, he had been enlightened by an immortal. He had been cultivating on the right path since he was young. He hated these unorthodox ways the most. He flatly rejected the mysterious person's request and wanted to continue sleeping. However, the other party suddenly attacked. He hadn't moved for a long time, and his skills were rusty. Moreover, the other party had attacked him secretly. He hadn't noticed that he had been seriously injured, and his dragon bones, which had just formed, had been broken.
After that, the other party left. He tossed and turned in pain in the river for a few days, and when he was on the verge of death, he vaguely comprehended his Dao heart. He clearly knew that he had to enter the sea, or he would die without dignity while dragging a broken dragon bone. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, it would be difficult for him to advance even an inch when the Cultivation Era came again.
Because of his severe injuries, Lan Feng was at the end of his rope even when he swam to the mouth of the sea. His control over the water was not as great as before. If he was at the peak of his strength, it would be impossible for him to cause a flood.
By the time the Special Investigations Department had evacuated the surrounding crowd, Lan Feng's lightning tribulation had already taken shape. The first bolt of lightning struck the Golden Flood Dragon in the middle of the river.
A mournful dragon's roar resounded through the heavens and the earth. The people and ghosts who were in charge of supporting the illusion felt an overwhelming pressure, and the entire illusion barrier trembled.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xia Yuyang threw out all the talismans on his body. A stack of yellow paper seemed to be inexhaustible as it formed a paper wall in the air. The paper was surrounded by golden light, and the talisman was faintly visible. It stabilized the barrier and blocked the surging river water.
It was only the first bolt of lightning, and he couldn't attack yet. Xia Yuyang waited anxiously for the next lightning tribulation to fall. Although Third Aunt Wang had asked him to help the Golden Flood Dragon transcend the tribulation, she did not want him to interfere in the entire process. He did not have the ability to help the Golden Flood Dragon withstand the nine great lightning bolts.
The lightning tribulation that the flood dragon suffered when it entered the sea would help it shed the waste Kirin on its body and allow it to truly be reborn. If this golden flood dragon did not even have the ability to withstand the first few lightning tribulations, even if he attacked, it would not be able to truly transform into a dragon.
Soon, the second, third, and fourth lightning bolts fell one after another. The river surface where the Golden Flood Dragon was was dyed red with blood. Other than the sound of rain, wind, thunder, and the painful groans of the Golden Flood Dragon, there was no other sound. The atmosphere was terrifyingly quiet. Everyone present, whether human or ghost, was worried about the Golden Flood Dragon.
After the fifth bolt of lightning, the Golden Flood Dragon poked its head out of the river. The two bulge-like horns on its ferocious head had already fallen off, and it was about to grow back its real dragon horns.
After the sixth, seventh, and eighth lightning bolts, the golden flood dragon was covered in blood and its scales were mottled. It was very close to the mouth of the sea.
Xia Yuyang raised his head to look at the sky. The thick dark clouds were so low that he could touch them with his hand. The purple-red lightning in the clouds was rolling, preparing for the last big thunder.
Lan Feng, who was at the mouth of the sea, still had to face his inner demon before the ninth lightning bolt fell. After forcefully enduring eight lightning bolts, he felt that his entire body was exhausted and he could no longer swim. While he was in a daze, he actually saw the mysterious person who had broken his dragon bones a few days ago guarding the mouth of the sea. It seemed that he was planning to give him the final blow when he was weak.
For a moment, Lan Feng's breath surged, and his throat was filled with a bloody and sweet blood. He knew that his current state was not right, and he was showing signs of becoming a demon. However, under the drive of his inner demon, he was eager for revenge and had no time to care about other things. Just as he was about to go crazy, a clear reprimand sounded like thunder above his head.
"Clear heart like water, clear water is the heart, no breeze, no waves! Golden Flood Dragon! The mouth of the sea was right in front of him. Once he crossed it, he would become a true dragon. Don't be deceived by other things and stick to your heart!”
Xia Yuyang saw that the time had come. He held the Dragon Suppressing Whip in his hand and stepped on the yellow paper as he sat on the golden flood dragon's neck. He placed the Dragon Suppressing Whip vertically on the flood dragon's head, and the whip began to spin rapidly as if it had its own consciousness.
In an instant, Lan Feng's inner demon dissipated, and his mind became clear. The mouth of the sea was already within reach. Where did this mysterious person come from? It was all just an illusion!
He leaped forward with all his might, and the last bolt of lightning struck down with great force. Xia Yuyang poured the power of virtue into the spinning Dragon Suppressing Whip, and a golden light of virtue spread out, forming a huge barrier around the golden flood dragon and Xia Yuyang.
As the thunder gradually died down, Lan Feng brazenly entered the sea!
A golden flood dragon raised its head and stepped on the clouds, carrying the surging water of the great river. In the auspicious light sprinkled by the Heavenly Dao, sharp dragon horns and four claws appeared on the waves, and the carefree dragon roar resounded throughout the world.
Xia Yuyang sat on the back of the Golden Dragon and witnessed the glory of his transformation into a dragon. Before he could sigh at this rare and magnificent scene, the newly appointed Golden Dragon was already hovering in the sky.
In less than 15 minutes, the heavy rain that had troubled J City for several days quickly stopped. The rain clouds gradually dispersed, and the weak sunlight passed through the clouds and fell on the river.
