Chapter 2340 Raw 2446 Repeated : Entering the Passageway
Inside the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb:
The seven Ethereal Immortal Palace keys turned into divine birds connected at head and tail, circling endlessly.
The pitch-dark black hole in the circle gave off slight space-time fluctuations. Everyone guessed that it was the passageway to the Ethereal Immortal Palace.
Even though everyone guessed that, the fanatical group of people turned cautious when faced with this passageway.
A space-time passageway! This was a space-time passageway. Who knew where it led? This was too risky.
There were many space-time cracks in the Great Thousand Realms. Even Faux Gods would find it hard to escape if they fell into one.
This was just a group of Sovereign Emperors. Of course, they did not dare to act rashly.
“Should we enter?”
Qin Ming felt an impulse in his heart. The flames of fervor flashed in his eyes. The Dragon Race once held the Wings of Time, using it to defeat the unparalleled Black Dragon King.
Qin Ming had a special mentality towards the Ethereal Immortal Palace and the Wings of Time.
Sikong Shu looked around and saw Yuan Zhen, Yan Cangming, Wenren Yu, and the others frowning slightly. They all tried to think of an absolutely safe measure, not planning to act rashly.
“We should be cautious. Although we have that treasure from the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor, we should not expose it so soon,” Sikong Shu said after withdrawing his gaze and some consideration.
The fervor in Qin Ming’s eyes intensified. He asked softly, “What are you afraid of? Wealth comes amid danger. We absolutely can take this risk for the Wings of Time. As long as we can get the upper hand, the Wings of Time will definitely be ours!”
The Silver Dragon King advised with a grave expression, “Don’t be rash. Who can guarantee that the people here do not have trump cards? Act after making a plan. I still find several people here unfathomable. Hah…”
When Qin Ming heard the Silver Dragon King sigh, his lips twitched; he clearly felt somewhat upset. However, he still calmed down, not saying anything.
As the group watched hesitantly, Jiang He, who was with Lin Feng far away from the core region, suddenly felt his heart speed up when the seven Ethereal Immortal Palace keys connected, his blood flowing in reverse.
Jiang He seemed to enter a trance, turning scarily pale.
How unbearable!
“Plop!” Jiang He fell to his knees while pressing his hand to his chest. Then, he raised his head and looked into the distance at the resplendent ring made up of Ethereal Immortal Palace keys that turned into divine birds.
Jiang He’s vision blurred; he could not see anything.
The inheritance key is really in me?
Father, what did you do to me? Why did you not tell me? Why did you not tell me…
“Jiang He! Jiang He!”
The startled Lin Feng squatted down to check on Jiang He’s situation.
Jiang He’s consciousness turned blurry as he felt incredibly weak. Someone seemed to be shouting his name by his ear.
Jiang He’s vision now filled with the resplendent light from the inheritance key. Compared to his physical pain, his heart hurt more.
At this point, no matter how stupid he was, he also guessed that the inheritance key really did have something to do with him.
Why did his father not tell him about it?
Why did you not tell me…
A figure’s back appeared in the bright light amid Jiang He’s blurry vision and hazy consciousness.
That figure appeared illusory and ethereal when embellished by the light.
There was a small child behind this figure. This person narrowed his eyes as he looked at the tall figure with reverent eyes.
“He`er, what do you think is an expert?”
The little child clenched his fist and said while gritting his teeth with determination, “Of course, an expert is someone like Father!
“Father is a Heavenly Dragon, a Heavenly Dragon that everyone in the Divine Dragon Empire respects, a Heavenly Dragon that is even more powerful than the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor.”
“I am an expert? However, this empire is already rotten to the core, already another person’s dog. I am just a slightly stronger dog.”
The little child showed a confused expression on his cute face; he could not understand what his father said.
The little child nibbled his finger, looking like he could not figure anything out despite thinking hard about this. This made his tender, young face look even cuter.
Although that tall figure did not turn around, he could still clearly see the little child’s appearance, so he could not help laughing.
“He`er, Father is leaving. Remember to complete all your assignments and don’t ever get lazy.”
The little child could not help growing anxious. He ran over to hug that figure’s leg stubbornly and said, “Why does Father have to leave? Father is not allowed to leave Little Jiang He!”
“Why? Because Father has the heart of an expert…Little Jiang He, remember this. Strength does not define an expert; it is the heart. If you can understand that, one day, you will become a Heavenly Dragon as well.”
No matter how the little child cried out after that person spoke, that figure slowly went farther away until he vanished.

The scene changed.
A group of youths surrounded the young child in Ancestor Dragon City, using their fists and legs to beat him up.
“Little mixed-blood fellow, you stole Young Master Qin’s things again!”
“Steal?! Serves you right for stealing! I’ll beat you to death!”
“You are indeed a despicable mixed-blood dragon. I wonder how you even entered Ancestor Dragon City.”
The little child curled up on the ground. Despite his face swelling from the beating, he still refused to let go of the saber he hugged tightly.
The little child gritted his teeth. His eyes were watery, but he did not let any tears fall. He insisted stubbornly, “I am not a thief! I am not a thief! This is my father’s saber. He gave it to me!”
“Hahaha! Your father is a criminal!”
“Everything that belongs to him has been confiscated. Now, they all belong to Young Master Qin Ming.”
“Your father overestimated himself, wanting to sneak-attack the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor. Sparing you is the Qin Clan’s mercy to you!”
“I do not permit you to say that. My father is the Heavenly Dragon. The Heavenly Dragon!”
The little child suddenly erupted. His expression turned crazed and fierce, knocking back the surrounding youths.
“Bang!”
The little child only took two steps before being knocked into the air. A footprint appeared on his face, and blood now flowed out of his nose.
Young Master Qin Ming appeared and said indifferently, “Little mixed-blood dragon, keep this broken saber. This Young Master has plenty of treasures. However, if you dare to steal again, it will not be as simple as getting beaten up.”
“Despicable fellow.”
“Trash mixed-blood dragon.”
“How is he not embarrassed to remain in Ancestor Dragon City with us Divine Dragons?”
The youths left, slowly going away. However, the unpleasant words did not disappear.
The little child hugged the saber as he looked at the sky. He turned a deaf ear to those humiliating words.
The little child wondered why his father left, why his father did not tell him anything.
The scene changed again. The little child now looked like the current Jiang He. He left Ancestor Dragon City while hugging his saber.
He showed a determined and stubborn look in his eyes as he tightly clenched his right hand. He said, “I will find you. I have to ask you why!”
After that, Jiang He left Ancestor Dragon City without turning his head back.
---
Lin Feng felt somewhat helpless. After Jiang He collapsed, he started rambling in delirium, occasionally asking why.
“Why, so many whys…you are about to die already.”
What should I do now?
Lin Feng felt somewhat helpless. He had not heard of anything like Jiang He’s condition before—blood flowing in reverse, Divine Energy in chaos, Divine Seal spinning in reverse, yet still alive.
Even Lin Feng, who was skilled with the Death Dao, could not understand this strange condition.
Just as Lin Feng was at his wits’ end, his expression flickered. He saw a faint light coming from Jiang He’s chest.
After a while, the faint light spread all over Jiang He’s body, and his body slowly turned illusory.
“What the heck?!”
Lin Feng bent over to check. Who could have imagined that just as he placed his hand on Jiang He, the two would vanish without any signs or warning?
“Crack!”
At the same time, the black hole within the light ring formed by the Ethereal Immortal Palace keys suddenly shattered.
There seemed to be a world inside. A beautiful, crystal palace giving off Immortal Qi appeared indistinctly.
The palace appeared ethereal and pure amid the clouds, looking very inviting.
“The Ethereal Immortal Palace!”
Yan Cangming, the Silver Dragon King, and the others could no longer endure. They gave up on thinking up an absolutely safe plan and abandoned their caution. Otherwise, others would snatch the initiative.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Light and shadows flickered immediately. Yuan Zhen, Yan Cangming, and the others used their various means, executing their exquisite Movement Techniques to fly towards the passageway.
Xiao Chen entered deep thought while on the Demon Blood Vulture, not daring to be sure.
“Is it really the Ethereal Immortal Palace?”
Unfortunately, the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor had been forced to erase all his memories of the Ethereal Immortal Palace.
Back then, he was forced to hand over the Wings of Time, under the pressure of the Divine Master and the other experts. He had no other choice but to erase all his memories pertaining to it.
Even though Xiao Chen was so close, he did not know much about it.
“This is the Ethereal Immortal Palace. The Wings of Time must be there.”
Chu Chaoyun showed a resolute expression as he soared up and prepared to enter.
Xiao Chen asked, “Are you not entering with us?”
“I’ll make further plans after I enter.”
Chu Chaoyun’s figure paused for a moment as he hesitated on whether to stay or not.
“Big Brother, is this person reliable?” Xiao Suo, who was treating his injuries on the Demon Blood Vulture, asked as he suddenly opened his eyes and watched Chu Chaoyun leave.
Hao Kai also looked at Xiao Chen. After all, the two of them did not know what past Xiao Chen and Chu Chaoyun shared. It was normal for them to harbor such doubts.
Was Chu Chaoyun reliable?
Xiao Chen did not know. However, he knew how to answer this question. He replied calmly, “My saber will never take the initiative to attack him.”
