Chapter 464: Chapter 353 The Real Dragon Emperor_1
Not to mention that he had already started transforming his Divine Origin, which meant he had no fear of a Divine Dragon who had just entered the Divine Emperor\'s Realm. Even if he hadn\'t, with the might of his nine Perfect Laws and the Chaos Yuan Extreme Heaven Holy Body, he would dare to challenge a Divine Emperor.
With the Fourth Prince now retreating, Li Cheng didn\'t pursue him but instead started strolling around Wangchuan Island.
Before long, Li Cheng arrived at a lake, where he occasionally saw fish leaping out of the water. A thought struck him, and he pulled out a divine artifact-level fishing rod to begin fishing.
"A divine artifact-level fishing rod, fellow daoist, you\'re quite extravagant!"
"But even with a divine artifact-level fishing rod, you still need bait, right? Without bait, how can one fish?"
A gentle voice sounded not far away. Soon after, a middle-aged man approached with a warm smile on his face.
Li Cheng could clearly sense that the middle-aged man had only reached the Heaven God State in cultivation. He nodded slightly in greeting and said, "It\'s just for fun, the result doesn\'t matter."
The middle-aged man stopped two zhang away from Li Cheng and took out a fishing rod made from ordinary divine bamboo, chuckling, "I haven\'t seen fellow daoist on Wangchuan Island before, are you new here?"
Li Cheng glanced at the middle-aged man. He could sense that the man had Dragon Clan blood in his veins, but he could not discern his true form, and from what the man said, it seemed he had been living on Wangchuan Island for some time.
This wasn\'t surprising since even Unrivaled Island had some members of the Monster Race with ordinary Heaven God State cultivation who possessed a fraction of Dragon Clan blood, living orderly lives, managing the island, and staying out of worldly conflicts.
Li Cheng smiled and replied, "Yes, I\'m new here."
The middle-aged man nodded, handed Li Cheng a porcelain bowl, and said, "The fish in this lake have a peculiar fondness for this type of bait. Why doesn\'t fellow daoist give it a try?"
In the porcelain bowl, there were some Divine Fungi remnants, and several worm-like creatures that resembled mealworms were squirming gently, nibbling at those remnants.
Li Cheng picked up a worm and smiled, "Fellow daoist cultivates bait with Divine Medicine, that\'s quite extravagant too!"
The middle-aged man shrugged, "This Divine Fungi is merely a first-grade Divine Medicine. There\'s plenty of it in the mountains over there, it\'s not precious. How can it compare to fellow daoist\'s divine artifact fishing rod?"
As they spoke, the middle-aged man\'s face showed envy.
Li Cheng had already baited the hook and continued fishing. To his surprise, in just a few seconds, the rod in his hands dipped—he actually had a fish on the line!
With a gentle tug, a large fish with scales that shimmered with a rainbow luster landed in Li Cheng\'s hands.
Li Cheng examined the fish curiously for a moment before releasing it back into the lake.
The middle-aged man\'s eyes widened, and he swallowed hard, saying, "Fellow daoist, that was a seven-colored dragon fish, consuming it can refine the bloodline, it\'s an extremely precious divine fish. You just let it go like that?"
Li Cheng was taken aback, "It didn\'t look tasty, so of course, I let it go."
The middle-aged man\'s mouth twitched, his face a picture of someone mourning a wasted opportunity.
Li Cheng ignored him and continued fishing, this time without using any bait.
Half a day passed, the middle-aged man had used up all his bait without catching a single fish, and without using any bait, Li Cheng didn\'t catch any more fish either.
As the sun began to set, Li Cheng casually tossed the fishing rod to the middle-aged man, "I\'m leaving now, consider the fishing rod a gift."
This rod was one that Li Cheng had casually refined while at Blunt Empty Residence, and it wasn\'t precious to him.
The middle-aged man hastily rose to his feet, but Li Cheng\'s figure was no longer in sight.
The middle-aged man picked up the fishing rod and examined it, then looked in the direction Li Cheng had left, shaking his head with a smile and muttering to himself, "The son of Confucius Ancestor, seems a little impatient."
"Big brother, why have you come?"
Just then, Wushuang hurried over, landing beside the middle-aged man, her face full of surprise.
Had Li Cheng witnessed this scene, he would have been utterly astonished. Wushuang\'s big brother was, of course, the First Prince, Ao Wuzhan.
However, how could Ao Wuzhan, as the First Prince, have only the cultivation of the Heaven God State?
Without a doubt, Ao Wuzhan was concealing his cultivation level.
And the fact that Ao Wuzhan could hide his cultivation so well that even Li Cheng\'s Divine Soul couldn\'t detect anything amiss spoke volumes about Ao Wuzhan\'s strength!
The smile on Ao Wuzhan\'s face grew even broader as he looked Wushuang up and down, nodding in satisfaction, "Very good, breaking through two minor realms in just ten years of seclusion!"
Wushuang\'s joy was evident as she said, "Someone gave me Fell Dragon Grass, so that\'s why my cultivation has improved so quickly. Big brother, what do you need me for?"
Ao Wuzhan glanced in the direction Li Cheng had left, "Actually, I was looking for him."
"Oh?" Wushuang looked puzzledly at Ao Wuzhan, "Looking for Li Cheng? For Alchemy or Artifact Refining? Big brother, you don\'t seem to lack either, do you?"
The smile remained on Ao Wuzhan\'s face, "For breaking a Formation!"
Breaking a Formation?
Wushuang became even more puzzled, "Big brother, you\'re at the complete Divine Emperor\'s Realm. Is there a formation you can\'t break? And if there\'s a formation you can\'t break, it\'s not certain that Li Cheng could break it either, right?"
"You\'re underestimating Li Cheng. I\'ve researched the Divine Array he set up here; it\'s flawless. Being able to create a sixth-grade perfect Divine Array is enough to prove his Array Mastery is unparalleled. Given enough power and resources, I suspect he could lay out even seventh or eighth-grade Divine Arrays without any problems."
"So asking him to break the Formation would undoubtedly be most appropriate."
Ao Wuzhan\'s words left Wushuang in shock. Indeed, she had underestimated Li Cheng!
After pondering for a few seconds, Wushuang asked again, "The Formation you mentioned, isn\'t it the Divine Array of the ancestral land? If I remember correctly, the only formation on Dragon Island that can\'t be broken is the one at the ancestral land."
Ao Wuzhan didn\'t conceal the truth, nodding, "That\'s right. In fact, our father the emperor hasn\'t been in seclusion; he entered the ancestral land. But once inside, he was trapped by the formation. Only by breaking the Formation can we rescue the emperor."
