My Core is the Boss-Chapter 194.1: A Chance to Break Through to True God, Monkey

Chapter 194.1: A Chance to Break Through to True God, Monkey

At the North Sea Dragon Clan, five ancient dragons were gathered together. They went on a discussion with fury.

Draped in a long golden robe, Venerable Dragon took control of the conversation, his gaze fierce. "Has his identity still not been uncovered?"

Another ancient dragon replied helplessly, "No."

"To dare take the name Dragon-Subduer, what arrogance!"

"Alas, the North Sea Dragon Clan has suffered such a devastating blow. It's truly suffocating!"

Golden Dragon and the six dragons could be said to be the very backbone of the North Sea Dragon Clan.

Aside from Third Step Venerable Dragon, the rest were only at First Step. To make matters worse, they had no further potential to speak of.

Venerable Dragon radiated fury. "He severed the backbone of our clan. Even if his father were a Great Venerable, this matter cannot simply be let go!"

At that moment, someone replied calmly, "Indeed, we cannot let this go.”

The space rippled, and a group of ancient gods appeared within the palace.

Qi Yuan stared at the five ancient dragons in amusement. "You still haven't paid compensation."

The Venerable Dragon's pupils shrank sharply. "You... Great Venerable Qionghua, how have you awakened?!"

He instantly understood that Qionghua had brought this group into his palace. His heart shook violently. Not even in his wildest imagination had he thought that she would awaken!

"Whether she awakened or not has nothing to do with you," Qi Yuan said languidly, like a spoiled noble. "I'm here to demand compensation. That one called Golden Dragon offended me. Unless you hand over some treasures, my anger won't be soothed."

Venerable Dragon couldn't help but say, "I am speaking to Great Venerable Qionghua. Who are you to interrupt?"

"You must die for offending the Heavenly Sovereign!" said Qionghua, launching an attack.

Her divine domain unfolded at that very moment. Within that area, even someone like Venerable Dragon was no different from a mortal.

Great Venerable Qionghua lightly pushed her delicate hand forward. A palm made of spiritual energy soundlessly slammed against Venerable Dragon. Blood poured from his mouth. One of his divine apertures had exploded.

"I have destroyed one of your divine apertures as a lesson," said Qionghua.

She then dispelled her divine domain and stood quietly beside Qi Yuan like a loyal maid.

Qi Yuan cast her an approving glance, then turned to Venerable Dragon. "You really have no sense at all. Didn't you notice that the four ancient dragons beside you didn't dare say a single word when they saw me?"

With one divine aperture shattered, Venerable Dragon's aura collapsed. He stared at Qi Yuan, not daring to say a word. Confusion struck him. Why does Great Venerable Qionghua treat that man like this? Is he her son?

However, judging by the respect Qionghua showed him, that explanation didn't fit at all.

Qi Yuan declared to the five ancient dragons, "You have offended me. Open your treasury. I'll pick a few things, and this matter will be settled."

Venerable Dragon lay on the ground, not daring to utter a word. In truth, the five ancient dragons were rapidly communicating in secret, seeking a way out.

After a few breaths, one ancient dragon stepped forward, his posture extremely humble. "Qiyuann Sovereign, Golden Dragon brought this upon himself. He offended you and was killed by your people. His punishment was absolutely just."

Those who knew the times were heroes. None of the ancient dragons dared mention revenge.

"Lead the way to the treasury." Qi Yuan had no interest in grudges or vendettas. All he cared about were artifacts. "If the treasures don't satisfy me, hehe..."

That chuckle made the five dragons' hearts tighten, a sense of mortal danger washing over them.

A green-robed dragon gave a ninety-degree bow, all trace of the dragon clan's dominance gone. "Qiyuann Sovereign, please follow me."

Qi Yuan glanced at Venerable Dragon lying on the ground like a dead fish. "Actually, I preferred how unruly you were earlier."

Venerable Dragon's blood surged. He spat out another mouthful of blood and seemed to pass out from rage.

Qi Yuan waved his hand. "Let's go to the treasury."

The group followed the green-robed dragon.

Just then, Qionghua asked, "Venerable Dragon may harbor some grudges. Should I arrange for his death?"

She said this not via voice transmission, but openly, in front of the green-robed dragon. He trembled all over.

Qi Yuan said calmly, "If he doesn't behave, you may do as you please."

Qionghua sighed inwardly in relief. "Understood."

Soon, they arrived at the North Sea Dragon Clan's treasury. It wasn't held in a separate palace, but located deep within the prison.

Qi Yuan was somewhat surprised. "You built the treasury inside the prison? This is quite creative. Aren't you afraid the prisoners will steal everything and escape?"

The green-robed dragon hurriedly explained, "We heard from other ancient gods that you favor supreme treasures that can help one break through to the True God realm. Such treasures are all stored within the Dragon Prison. Within this place lay a Spring Eye that can produce supreme treasures." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

This Spring Eye was similar to the North Sea Divine Eye. Many of the treasures of the Qionghua Palace were obtained in this way.

In no time, they caught sight of the Spring Eye. Qi Yuan examined it.

[North Sea Spring Eye. Occasionally, supreme treasures will spurt forth from here.]

Then, Qi Yuan saw the treasures. "Only seven? That's not a lot."

He still took them anyway, his expression neither pleased nor displeased. Having obtained twenty-five treasures, seven additional ones hardly stirred his heart.

Seeing that Qi Yuan seemed dissatisfied, cold sweat nearly broke out on the green-robed dragon's forehead.

Qi Yuan asked, "Aren't there other treasuries?"

"There are!" the dragon replied hurriedly, afraid Qi Yuan would be displeased.

Qi Yuan looked at the Four Heavenly Kings and the Eighteen Arhats. "Go browse through their treasuries. See if there's anything suitable."

"Yes!"

The Four Heavenly Kings and the Eighteen Arhats did as they were told and scattered.

Meanwhile, Qi Yuan tested the ones he had and was immediately disappointed. "Still not enough."

Even with over thirty supreme treasures, he still couldn't reach the True God realm.

Qi Yuan asked, "Great Venerable Qionghua, do you know how to reach the True God realm without using these treasures?"

Qionghua was startled. She roughly understood that Qiyuann Sovereign's talent was simply too terrifying, far surpassing that of the No-Food Goddess, rendering the supreme treasures useless.

Without hesitation, she said, "After the Heavenly Pillar broke, only supreme treasures can help you break the limit. As for reaching the True God realm, there are only two ways: either you leave the Mortal Heart World, or repair the Heavenly Pillar. However, both paths are extremely difficult. I once heard that beyond the Mortal Heart World’s barrier, there is a being above True God."

"Above True God?" Qi Yuan was surprised. Gazing up toward the starry sky, he immediately spotted a blood-tinged star. "If I remember correctly, isn't there also a being above True God in the Heavenly Pillar? Is the Mortal Heart World some kind of delicacy? Why are so many Yang Spirits watching it?"

Qionghua’s eyes were filled with unease, as if she was worried about the future of her world. "This involves deep mysteries. Perhaps only a powerhouse of the No-Food Goddess's level knows the reason."

"Haa... Why couldn't they give me a game synopsis?" Qi Yuan asked helplessly. "Does that mean I can't break through to the True God realm at all?"

Just then, Qionghua thought of something and said thoughtfully, "I've also heard of a few secrets that might be useful to you."

"Tell me."

"There is a clan known as the Ancient Clan. Since they existed even before the Hongtang War, their inheritance is extremely ancient. You see, they have something called the Ancestral Land. Once, there was a peerless prodigy who also couldn't break through using supreme treasures. He accidentally entered said land. Upon emerging, he had stepped into the True God realm. Later, he was abducted by an evil god and became its lackey. Now, the Ancestral Land of the Ancient Clan is fullyare under his control. He is known as Great Venerable Aoshi."

At the mention of this person, Qionghua's eyes burned with anger. After all, the man possessed unparalleled talent, yet he betrayed the Mortal Heart World, and defected to the evil gods.

Qi Yuan asked curiously, "How did he break through?"

"I don't know," Qionghua shook her head. "Even Great Venerable Aoshi himself doesn't know how he broke through. That's why he surrounds the Ancient Clan's Ancestral Land. He only leaves one side open, and constantly uses ancient gods as experiments, trying to find the reason."

"It seems I'll have to visit this Ancestral Land someday," he said.

Not now, of course. His wings had not yet fully grown.
