"Welcome to the ancient garden, Master."
Zhiyu Yushen, Yue Tu, and the other two young women were surprised to hear Tian Lanyi's words; even more so, he immediately kneeled in front of Ling Yun.
"Hmm?" Ling Yun immediately checked Tian Lanyi's status. "So you are the sixth beast, right?"
"Yes, I am your servant, a sky lightning wolf, Master."
'A servant?' Zhiyu Yushen and the others inwardly wondered in shock, especially since Tian Lanyi was so powerful, but she addressed Ling Yun as her master.
"I thought you would come straight to me after I broke through to the upper king realm, but you were waiting for me here instead." Ling Yun then turned to Long Xiang, who looked angry at him, but he felt relieved to see Tian Yueling and the others. "Did you order her to kidnap them?"
"Haha." Tian Lanyi immediately stood up and explained it to him. "Long Xiang has no evil intentions, and she only wants to fight with you because you both have dragon bloodlines."
"I know." Ling Yun then looked at the cave at the end of the garden, as he felt a strong urge to go in there. "Do you know the item in that cave?"
"No, I can't enter that cave, and only you can enter it, Master."
"Hmm?" Ling Yun turned to her in surprise. "Let's go there."
"All right."
Zhou Yu and Yi Mingxia followed them towards the cave, and Ling Yun spoke to one of his wives. "Xiao'er, you can look for the nine-petal lotus flower, and you guys can also look for important herbs while I check the cave."
Zhiyu Yushen was actually curious about the cave, but she decided to join Xiao Xiao and the others to look for the herbs.
"Why can't you enter that cave?"
Tian Lanyi told him straight away. "The ancients created a special protective barier at the entrance, and only the inheritor of the old dragon can pass through it."
"The ancients?" Unlike Zhou Yu, Ling Yun and Yi Mingxia were shocked to hear that, as they had never heard of them before; even Ling Xi had never mentioned those people. "Who exactly are they?"
"I can't explain to you in detail about them, Master." Tian Lanyi sighed softly before she spoke again. "However, they were the Time Lord's subordinates, and she ordered them to build this garden in order to hide one of the old dragon's body parts."
Ling Yun was not surprised to hear that, as he already knew that the Time Lord had killed the old dragon, and his heart was also in her hands now.
After they arrived in front of the cave, Zhou Yu tried to touch the barrier, but he was sent flying backwards. "I've never seen such a powerful barrier before; even cultivators of the supreme realm wouldn't be able to break through it."
"Haha." Tian Lanyi laughed at that. "The cultivation of the ancients is just below that of the Time Lord, so no one will be able to break through this barrier. Even if all of them join forces to break it, they still won't be able to do it."
"That's true." Zhou Yu nodded in agreement with her.
"So how do I enter this barrier?"
"Isn't that easy, Master?" Ling Yun turned to her. "You only need to use your bloodline power, but I have to open the sixth seal on your bloodline first, and you can enter this cave after that."
"Wait a minute." Ling Yun grabbed Tian Lanyi's hand. "They won't be able to help me control my lust if you break the seal on my bloodline now, so it would be better if we did it later at our residence."
"That can't be done, master." Tian Lanyi replied by shaking her head. "Your current bloodline power is sufficient to cross this barrier, so I have to do it now. Moreover, the spirit emperor will be out today, so we don't have much time to waste, and you will become very strong once you fuse with that thing."
Ling Yun frowned after he heard that, and Zhou Yu then spoke to him. "Hey, there's no need to worry about that; let her unlock the seal now. For the time being, you can dual cultivate with them, and I will go out to pick up your other women."
Ling Yun nodded in agreement. "All right, you have to pick them up as soon as possible."
"Hey, you can go with her since we don't have much time left." Long Xiang just nodded to her and led Zhou Yu out of the ancient garden, and Tian Lanyi then said to him. "Master, you can prepare now, and I will unseal the sixth seal on your bloodline now."
Ling Yun sat cross-legged and closed his eyes, and Tian Lanyi injected her qi into his body, causing a black-pitch aura to envelop his body.
"Phew." Tian Lanyi let out a sigh of relief and said to Yi Mingxia. "For the time being, we need only wait, and you can prepare to assist my master in quelling his lust."
Yi Mingxia nodded and called Xiao Xiao and the other four women to join them, as their numbers were too few to help Ling Yun control the effects of his bloodline.
After they arrived there, Tian Lanyi removed the seal on Yun Gongzhu and Jiao Lu's cultivation, or else they wouldn't be strong enough to serve Ling Yun, who would lose control once the sixth seal was opened.
Meanwhile, Zhiyu Yushen and the others were shocked after they felt the pressure coming from Ling Yun, and they turned to him with frowns.
"Why is his body covered in such a pitch-black aura?" Tian Yueling asked Zhiyu Yushen.
"I don't know." Zhiyu Yuzhen then turned to Yue Tu. "Do you know what happened to him?"
"Yes." Yue Tu nodded to them. "That wolf woman just opened the seal on Mo Chen's bloodline, and that aura was the effect."
"The seal on his bloodline?" Zhiyu Yushen became confused by that.
Yue Tu just shook her head, as she herself didn't know about it, and Tian Yueling then told them. "Ah! I remember that! The wolf woman told her friend yesterday that Mo Chen was not yet complete, and he had to open some seals on his bloodline. Besides, he also had to find some body parts of the dragon, which is the owner of his bloodline, and he could become a true dragon if he had managed to fuse with them."
"Are you kidding me? How can a human turn into a true dragon?" Zhiyu Yushen asked in a high voice.
Tian Yueling shrugged her shoulders. "I myself don't believe that Mo Chen can turn into a true dragon, but that's what the wolf woman said yesterday."
"Hmm?" Zhiyu Yushen then turned to Ling Yun again as she inwardly wondered. 'What kind of dragon is he actually? Could he be an evil dragon? After all, his dragon form is a black dragon, and his eyes are also blood-red. If he really is an evil dragon, why did Senior Tang Chen choose to help him?'
Unlike her, Yue Tu didn't seem to care whether Ling Yun was an evil dragon or not, and she was more concerned about his Yang Qi. She was sure it would become stronger once the process was complete. 'Hehe, I will become stronger if I drink his yang qi more often.'

A boy about ten years old with short golden hair walked into a palace, but his appearance looked ordinary with a colorful crown on his head, and there were many people kneeling and cheering excitedly on every side of the area he passed.
Sometime later, the boy had arrived in front of the throne room, and there were so many people waiting inside.
All of them then knelt on the floor and shouted. "We congratulate you on your success in breaking through to the High Supreme God Realm, Sprit Emperor!"
"Haha!" The spirit emperor laughed as he walked to the throne, and he then sat there before speaking to them. "I've been in seclusion for too long, but I finally managed to break through to this realm. Even so, my cultivation is still far behind the cultivators in the supreme realm; even Tang Chen has broken through to this stage much longer than me."
An old male spirit suddenly said. "Emperor, you don't need to compare yourself with those humans, as their cultivation speed is indeed faster when compared to us, the nature races."
"I agree with him, Emperor." Another spirit also said. "Even though your cultivation has just broken through, you are the strongest in this Flower Sea Realm; even that Elf Queen won't be able to match you now."
However, the spirit emperor shook his head. "Mu Ling, you underestimate Nu Wang too much, and you don't know her true strength like I do."
"Isn't her cultivation at the Middle Supreme God Realm, Emperor?" A female spirit asked him.
"No." The spirit emperor answered by shaking his head. "Nu Wang had reached the High Supreme God Realm several hundred years ago, but she was too lazy to show her strength, so no one ever knew about her true strength."
"Huh?" The spirits present at the scene became shocked after they heard that.
The spirit emperor then spoke again. "Besides her, Xian Di had also reached this stage some time ago, and I believe that the leaders of the other nature races will also reach this stage soon."
