Chapter 570 - 301: It’s Zhao Rui

The oppressive might of the soaring dragon was not only felt by the people of the Martial Dao—even the common folk of Blue Star sensed it in their hearts.

Whether in the Central Plains, Great Shang, or Great Zhou, all living beings gazed intently at the sky.

Far away, in a palace atop the Great Snow Mountain Peak in Great Zhou, a silver-haired elder’s eyes, sharp as a tiger’s, widened in utter disbelief.

’Such formidable divine might... To think it can affect my Martial Dao Heart. Who in the world could this be?’

Suppressing the tremor in his heart, his figure vanished in an instant.

When he reappeared, he was already high up in the sky.

"King Zhou!"

"Wuji? Longteng?"

The silver-haired man’s expression was grave. At his side were Mo Wuji of Great Shang and his son.

The three were the most powerful Martial Artists on Blue Star. They were all on high alert, ready to fight at a moment’s notice.

If the three of them fell, no one on Blue Star would be left to resist this powerful invader.

As the three prepared for battle, on Qingcheng Mountain, deep in the Central Plains, roars echoed out. Several enormous Exotic Beasts took to the sky, circling Qingcheng Mountain and roaring in agitation.

Beside them were the True Dharma Masters of the Qingcheng Sect, as well as Miao Miaomiao and Zhao Rui’s other loved ones.

"If the situation turns against us, follow Chi Hu and flee at once. Where there is life, there is hope!"

Sect Leader Master Weichen looked at the elite disciples of the sect behind him and spoke in a grave tone.

"The rest of you, follow me to face the enemy! As long as the mountain stands, so do we! We swear to live and die with Qingcheng!"

"We swear to live and die with Qingcheng!"

Everyone roared in unison, their voices echoing throughout Qingcheng Mountain.

In addition to the members of the Martial Dao, Blue Star’s three great powers and the other nations just struggling to survive all scrambled their most elite air forces, sending them high into the sky on standby.

The entire Blue Star was on edge, armed and ready for battle, awaiting the arrival of this unknown, mysterious master.

The dragon’s roars shook the very heavens!

After everyone’s ’patient’ wait, the great dragon revealed its form.

The enormous, dragon-shaped Dharma Aspect stretched for tens of thousands of miles, coiling itself around the outside of Blue Star and blocking the sun’s light.

"It’s... so big!"

"This has to be one of the Immortal Gods, right? How could anything have such a colossal body? Could it be a true Dragon God?"

"Should we attack?!"

"And do what? Do you think an attack from you would amount to more than a tickle?"

High in the sky, the masters of the Martial Dao were terrified, unsure of what to do.

"Wait and see!"

At the highest point, King Zhou, along with the Mo father and son, frowned as they sensed the incomparably huge behemoth above.

"It has no life force... it seems to be a Dharma Aspect manifestation!"

"This is a technique from the Central Plains Martial Arts!"

The three looked up at the sky in astonishment, momentarily confused.

"Everyone, long time no see!"

Just then, a resonant voice emanated from the dragon’s body. The voice wasn’t loud, yet it slowly spread around the entire Blue Star, reaching the ears of every living being.

"This voice?"

"It sounds so familiar!"

"It’s... Zhao Rui!"

"It’s Zhao Zhenren!"

"Emperor Zhao is back!"

Those who were familiar with Zhao Rui’s voice gradually recognized its owner and grew excited.

’That brat, he finally decided to come back!’

’You big jerk! I thought you were gone for good!’

"Boundless Celestial Venerable! The heavens have blessed Qingcheng!"

"Amitabha Buddha. Zhao Zhenren has returned from his journey across the Cosmos, his strength now even more unfathomable. For our Shaolin Sect... sigh. Ultimately, this is a blessing for the world of Martial Arts! A blessing for Blue Star!"

"Friends in the audience, ladies and gentlemen! This absolute behemoth you are seeing is none other than the Dharma Aspect manifestation of the long-lost Zhao Rui, also known as Zhao Zhenren..."

"Let me zoom the camera in a little closer... How magnificent! How majestic!"

"Zhao Zhenren has descended upon Blue Star with supreme divine might, an event that will surely change the planet’s political landscape... The three-way balance of power is very likely to be shattered."

"Let’s wait and see what happens next. In the meantime, let’s give our warmest round of applause for Zhao Zhenren’s return."
