The Prodigies War-Chapter 2237 Forty-Nine Sea Stabilizing Steles

Lin Xun’s dark eyes gleamed with coldness. “If I stay here, sooner or later, I’ll catch members of the True Dragon Clan coming out of the Dragon Palace.”

Sea Conqueror Dragon Emperor’s expression changed subtly. “What are you planning to do?”

Bang!

Big Yellow made a move, slapping Sea Conqueror Dragon Emperor with such force that it knocked him unconscious, sending him crumpling to the ground.

“Are we really not going to kill him?” Big Yellow swallowed.

“An important figure like him must have left items such as Life Soul Lanterns within the clan. His death will undoubtedly attract the attention of the other party.” Lin Xun said casually, “If we make it out of here alive, we can stew him into a pot of dragon meat later.’”

Big Yellow nodded repeatedly. “That makes sense.”

Without hesitation, Lin Xun sprang into action. In no time, he had gathered Sea Conqueror Dragon Emperor and his attendants, imprisoning them within the Dao Endless Pagoda.

In the end, Lin Xun also stored away the colossal dragon-whiskered black turtle.

“Big Yellow, you should also stay hidden in the Dao Endless Pagoda for now. Wait until I sneak into the Dragon Palace, and if the situation turns unfavourable, then you can take action.” Lin Xun suggested.

Big Yellow, of course, had no objection.

Very quickly, Lin Xun was the only one left in this tranquil water.

He waited alone.

According to the information Lin Xun had gathered, there were forty-nine entrances to the Dragon Palace, each guarded by a Sea Stabilizing Stele.

It was said that the forty-nine Sea Stabilizing Steles were priceless treasures of the True Dragon Lineage, continuously suppressing the Forbidden Zone of Life at the bottom of the East Sea. This had allowed countless creatures to safely traverse the vast expanse of the East Sea for countless years.

The Dragon Palace, the most mysterious place in the hearts of all the clans in the world, lay at the heart of the area guarded by the forty-nine Sea Stabilizing Steles. It was essentially an extraordinarily magical secret realm.

The sea area where Lin Xun was waiting was one of the forty-nine entrances to the Dragon Palace, a route reserved exclusively for its higher-ranking members.

At the same time, Lin Xun had come to realize that the True Dragon Lineage had an incredibly powerful foundation. As one of the Four Great Primordial Clans, it stood above all creatures, inherently possessing talents beyond imagination.

To compare, the power of the True Dragon Lineage could rival that of the Great Six Courts in the Great Primordial Chaos World and the Three Dark Giants in the Ancient Nebula Underworld!

In the True Dragon World, the True Dragon Lineage was the sole ruler! Needless to say, entering the Dragon Palace was bound to be extraordinarily dangerous.

However, Lin Xun had no intention of forcing his way in. Moreover, he had already made various preparations on his way here.

“What actually happened at the Thousand Dragon Celestial Assembly... Why was the incident caused by Jingxuan...

“The True Dragon Clan despises me so much that they’re even worried that I’ll come for them. They’ve gone so far as to sink the path between the True Dragon World and the Ancient Nebula Road. Is all of this really just because of Jingxuan’s connection to me?” Lin Xun murmured, lost in deep thought.

Whoosh!

After waiting for a full hour, following the sound of rolling currents and the scent of fragrance, he saw the sea near the Sea Stabilizing Stele was beginning to churn. Then, a massive gate emerged from the waves, and a group of figures stepped out from within.

Leading the group was a man dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, his head adorned with a feathered crown, exuding the haughty aura unique to the True Dragon Lineage.

The man in dragon robes was followed by a group of attendants, both men and women. Though none of them were true dragon descendants, each of them radiated an astonishing aura.

“Huh? You are...from the Imperial True Hou Clan?”

From afar, the man in the dragon robe first stared at Lin Xun in surprise, then quickly recognized the aura of the Imperial True Hou Clan emanating from him.

This was, of course, Lin Xun’s disguise. He calmly bowed and cupped his fists in salute, “Young Master, you have a keen eye. I am Hou Tianxing of the Imperial True Hou Clan, and I have come this time regarding an important matter.”

The man in the dragon robe gave a restrained nod. “Which elder of my clan sent you here?”

Only the higher-ranking members of the True Dragon Lineage could access this sea area, leading him to believe that Lin Xun had connections with an elder.

Lin Xun took out a purple token engraved with a dragon totem. “I am here under the orders of the Lord Sea Conqueror Dragon Emperor. This is the token,” he stated, passing it across the distance as he spoke.

The man in the dragon robe examined it and nodded, “Yes, it is my Sixth Uncle’s personal token. What brings you here this time?”

Lin Xun replied without hesitation, “I am here to pay a visit to the Seventh Prince, Ao Zhentian.”

The man in the dragon robe frowned upon hearing his purpose. “You want to see my seventh younger brother?”

Lin Xun bowed. “I hope you can help me.”

The man in the dragon robe said with a puzzled expression, “Didn’t my Sixth Uncle tell you that my Seventh Younger Brother has been confined for a long time? He’s not even allowed to leave the house, let alone receive guests.”

Lin Xun’s heart trembled slightly, but he kept his composure as he replied, “Lord Sea Conqueror Dragon Emperor only mentioned that with his token, I could enter the Dragon Palace to visit the Seventh Prince. As for anything else...I’m not entirely sure.”

The man in the dragon robe said thoughtfully, “Fine, since you hold the token of Sixth Uncle, I won’t make things difficult for you. I’ll take you to see Seventh Younger Brother.”

Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could get into the Dragon Palace and meet with Ao Zhentian, the truth would soon be revealed.

An attendant couldn’t help but remind him, “Fourth Prince, don’t we have to go...”

Before he could finish, the man in the dragon robe interrupted him, “There’s no need to rush, once I escort this friend from the Imperial True Hou Clan to my Seventh Younger Brother’s residence, we will set off.”

As he spoke, he turned around, brought out a fiery red jade token and shone it at the Sea Stabilizing Stele.

Buzz!

The sea surface churned, and a whirlpool-shaped gate emerged.

“Let’s go.” The man in the dragon robe led the way.

Lin Xun watched the man’s retreating figure and followed him, but he couldn’t help thinking to himself, The fourth prince? Could this be Ao Xuanfeng, the one who expelled Yin Huan from the Dragon Palace?

Lin Xun said nothing and just followed Ao Xuanfeng and the others into the whirlpool-shaped gate.

......

By the time Lin Xun’s vision became clear, he found that he had entered a secret realm, which was vast and boundless, with the air between heaven and earth thick with the primal essence of chaos.

At the same time, various forms of rich dragon energy transformed into auspicious clouds and mist, blanketing the sky in a magnificent and splendid display.

The mountains, rivers, plants and trees on earth were all huge, and the soil was teemed with vitality.

A single breath of the air was enough to fill the mouth and nose with the pure, surging energy of the heavens and earth, soothing and uplifting the mind, as if one were in a legendary realm.

Lin Xun sharply sensed Ao Xuanfeng glancing at him, whether intentionally or not. He couldn’t help but marvel, “Is this the world of the Dragon Palace? It truly is one of the most auspicious places in the world.”

Ao Xuanfeng smiled, his pride unmistakable. “To be frank, even in the entire universe, the only blessed land that could rival our Dragon Palace is likely where the Immortal Imperial Clan resides on the other side of the cosmos.”

With that, he led the way.

Along the way, they passed vast mountains and rivers, lush fields, and at times, flocks of phoenixes and other sacred birds soaring through the sky, their clear, melodious cries echoing in the air.

Auspicious creatures appeared everywhere on the ground, forcing Lin Xun to admit that the world of the Dragon Palace was indeed magical, far beyond anything he had imagined.

Through his spirit sense, he detected countless terrifying auras along the way, each inhabiting different territories—some lurking in abyss, others dwelling on cliffs, and some resting quietly beneath lakes...

Undoubtedly, those terrifying auras must belong to the powerful beings within the True Dragon Clan.

At the same time, Lin Xun also noticed that in the Dragon Palace were many creatures from other clans, each either beautiful in appearance or exuding powerful auras.

Lin Xun even spotted creatures from the nine imperial clans, including Bi’an, Hornless Ice Dragon, Pulao, Yazi, and Chaofeng!

However, the creatures from other clans all occupied various roles, such as maids, guards, stewards and attendants.

“All clans in this world revere our True Dragon Lineage and recognize us as their leaders. Those selected to serve in the Dragon Palace are the finest of their respective clans. Ordinary characters are not qualified to enter this place.” Ao Xuanfeng spoke leisurely, his demeanor like that of a king, viewing all beings in the world as his subjects.

Lin Xun took this opportunity to ask, “Young Master, are there any Emperors serving in the Dragon Palace?”

“Of course!” Ao Xuanfeng smiled reservedly. “Some Emperors from the nine imperial clans are often invited to serve as elder attendants for our clan.”

An attendant suddenly added with flattery, “My friend, you may not know but the fourth prince is served by three elders at the Emperor Stage. Like us, they are all loyal to the fourth prince and obey his commands.”

Lin Xun gasped, a look of surprise crossing his face.

Of course, it was partly feigned, and partly genuine.

From what he knew, there were nine princes and four princesses among the direct descendants of the True Dragon Lineage.

If the fourth prince alone had three Emperors serving him, then how many Emperor-level experts must there be within the entire True Dragon Lineage?

Moreover, a colossus like the True Dragon Clan was bound to have no shortage of incredibly terrifying beings.

This was more than enough to demonstrate the terrifying foundation of the True Dragon Lineage!
