Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 258 - 212 The Choice of Dragon Clan
Chapter 258: Chapter 212 The Choice of Dragon Clan
The Ancestors of the three clans all knew that the era belonging to the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans had long since passed.
Emperor Jun naturally did not know what the thoughts of the three clans’ Ancestors were at this moment and continued to speak.
"With the merits of the divine marriage, these Nine-headed Golden Dragons, nine Golden Phoenixes, and Nine-headed Qilins should have no problem breaking through to become Daluo Golden Immortals."
"I wonder what the three of you think?"
The Ancestors of the three clans exchanged glances with each other. The Dragon Ancestor was the first to speak: "Heavenly Emperor, rest assured, our Dragon Clan will definitely select nine of the most divine and handsome Golden Dragons."
Merely ten Golden Immortals were enough to gain Emperor Jun’s favor; this deal was still very much worth it.
The Phoenix Clan Ancestor and the Ancestor of the Qilin clan also realized this and agreed one after another.
Emperor Jun nodded towards the three clans and said, "Then I’ll leave it to the three of you."
Not long after, the three clans requested to take their leave.
Watching the receding figures of the three clans’ Ancestors, Emperor Jun couldn’t help but think.
The once glorious three clans had to compromise now.
How could the three clans stand alone amidst the current great Primordial trends?
The Dragon Ancestor left the South Heavenly Gate and headed straight for the dwelling place of the East Sea Dragon Clan.
He did not reveal his form in front of the East Sea Dragon Clan but went directly to the location of the East Sea Sea Eye.
He held his breath and concentrated. Suddenly, the Space Law emerged within him.
In an instant, a space appeared near the East Sea Sea Eye. The Dragon Ancestor did not hesitate and entered it directly.
As the Dragon Ancestor entered, the space was very dark, but this did not affect his vision.
He saw a very massive dragon body, red all over, coiled there, occupying most of the space.
However, it was covered with wounds, and the aura of a Primordial Golden Immortal was also very chaotic, giving off a feeling that it was about to shatter.
The Dragon Ancestor looked at this dragon body, his eyes inevitably revealing a color of sorrow.
"*Cough cough*, Long Yuan, why have you come here?"
A hoarse voice echoed in the space.
At the same time, the giant dragon opened its eyes, lighting up the entire space as if it were daylight.
Hearing this voice made the Dragon Ancestor’s heart ache.
He was a predecessor who had walked far on the path of becoming a Primordial Golden Immortal, now even unable to disguise his coughing voice, indicating his severe injury.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but recall the war between the three clans, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou’s conspiracy, his heart filled with resentment.
He quickly composed his emotions and said respectfully: "Greetings to Your Excellency Candle Dragon."
Candle Dragon, born of the same origin as the Ancestral Dragon, had a relationship with the Ancestral Dragon like Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi today.
When Candle Dragon heard this familiar title, he was taken aback. Although he often heard it, each time it reminded him of how splendid the Dragon Clan used to be.
He then said with a bitter smile: "There’s no need for formalities, I am now but struggling at death’s door."
"The future of the Dragon Clan will depend on you."
"Your Excellency Candle Dragon..."
The Dragon Ancestor spoke anxiously.
However, before he could finish, he heard Candle Dragon continue: "My body has already reached its limits, and falling is an inevitable outcome. No need for further words."
Hearing these words, the Dragon Ancestor felt sorrow and fell silent.
If His Excellency Candle Dragon were to fall, afterward, there would be no one to discuss the future of the Dragon Clan with him.
"Long Yuan, what brings you here this time?"
Candle Dragon asked.
The Dragon Ancestor recounted all that had happened in the Palace of the Polestar in detail to Candle Dragon without leaving anything out.
"Demon Emperor Jun? Heavenly Emperor Jun?"
Candle Dragon couldn’t help but mutter softly.
During the great war of the three clans, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou coveted power, and he had also suffered very severe injuries, nearly perishing.
And his elder brother, the Ancestral Dragon, had secretly created a place of refuge for him when he made the Heavenly Dao Oath, hoping he could survive.
Despite this, his injuries still could not be healed and were even worsening; he could only linger on in this space.
The only one who knew about this space was Long Yuan himself.
Now, he was even unable to open this space on his own.
Though he had been surviving in this space all along, he was well aware of Emperor Jun’s deeds, thanks to the updates from the Dragon Ancestor.
In Candle Dragon’s view, Emperor Jun was a talent on par with his brother.
Additionally, Emperor Jun was even more astute than his own brother.
His Demon Clan, although being the foremost force in the Primordial, did not participate in the struggle for supremacy in the Primordial and kept to themselves.
Furthermore, looking at his arrangements, he managed things beneficial to the Primordial, gaining merit, occupying fortune, step by step, very steady.
Thinking of these, Candle Dragon inquired, "Long Yuan, do you have any candidates for these nine Golden Immortals of the Dragon Clan?"
The Dragon Ancestor pondered for a moment and then said, "I had originally planned to bring nine lesser cultivated Golden Immortals from our clan, but then it seemed inappropriate."
"But to hand over the exceptionally talented younger generation of the Dragon Clan to Emperor Jun, I am also very reluctant."
The Dragon Ancestor naturally was reluctant; in his view, Emperor Jun’s actions were undoubtedly coercive.
It was just that his strength was not as great as Emperor Jun’s, so he dared not speak out.
"So, I wish to select nine Golden Dragons of mediocre talent for Emperor Jun’s use; that should suffice."
The Dragon Ancestor revealed his decision.
He hesitated for a moment and then said again: "However, this decision always makes me feel uneasy, which is why I came to consult with Your Excellency Candle Dragon."
