Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1081: Mortal Immortal Command Token

The seven Supremes stood in solemn silence by Ye Yun's side, their hands hanging limply, a feeling of helplessness washing over them.

No one could quite grasp the reason why this formidable figure would shatter the seven-star formation, merely to cast a glance at the Taixu Ancient Dragon.

"Where is the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon, and how does it communicate with you people?"

Ye Yun inquired softly, his eyelids gently lowered.

"Senior, we have no knowledge of the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon's whereabouts either. From our understanding, it is an entity of profound mystery, and even deities who align with it remain unaware of its location..."

Sensing Ye Yun's palpable displeasure, the Red Dust Supreme felt a surge of anxiety within his heart. Gathering his resolve, he spoke.

"The adage, 'one may glimpse a dragon's tail but never its head,' seems exceptionally apt for the Nine-tails..."

Ye Yun offered a slight nod.

The intricate play between himself and the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon had only just commenced, and he harbored a firm belief that locating this elusive creature would not be a protracted affair.

"The Nine-tailed Divine Dragon bestowed upon you the remains of a Taixu Ancient Dragon; in return, what can you offer it?"

Ye Yun inquired, a raised eyebrow signaling his curiosity.

"We possess certain inherited legacies, passed down through generations within the Divine Land. These inheritances are pledged to the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon's will. However, over the span of several million years, the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon has made exceedingly rare appearances, leaving these inherited forces with little to actively contribute on its behalf..."

The Red Dust Supreme elucidated.

"Indeed, following the great dragon conflict and the subsequent unification of the Divine Land, your active involvement would have been minimal..."

Ye Yun sighed with a touch of melancholy.

A flicker of realization crossed the Red Dust Supreme's visage as he promptly produced an ancient, crimson token. He held it aloft, presenting it to Ye Yun.

"What manner of object is this?" Ye Yun queried.

The Red Dust Supreme stated with utmost deference, "Senior, this is the Red Dust Immortal Order, personally forged by myself. It possesses the authority to command the Red Dust Immortal Sect situated beyond these confines. Should you require any personnel for a task, they are at your disposal!"

"Hmm."

Ye Yun acknowledged with a nod. He extended his hand, accepted the Red Dust Immortal Order, gave it a cursory examination, and then stored it away, a sense of satisfaction evident.

It had to be acknowledged.

This Red Dust Supreme displayed a commendable degree of astute perception.

Given that the seven ancient figures were destined to remain confined within the Valley of Sky Burial for the remainder of their existence, their capacity to render significant aid to him was inherently limited.

Consequently, he offered the Red Dust Immortal Sect under his dominion, placing its considerable resources at Ye Yun's service.

In doing so, it could be construed as a token of subordinate loyalty.

The Red Dust Immortal Sect—

Ye Yun held a faint recollection of its reputation. It was recognized as a formidable hidden sect, its influence in no way inferior to that of the Sect of Seven Kills.

Observing Ye Yun's acceptance of the Red Dust Supreme's offering, the other Supremes, with the sole exception of the Supreme Seven Kills, each presented an ancient token of their own.

"Senior, my Sect of Seven Kills no longer exists in its former capacity..."

The Supreme Seven Kills declared, a wry smile gracing his lips.

"Is that so? I recall hearing mention of an Avatar Art?"

Ye Yun's expression was faintly amused.

A tension settled upon the Supreme Seven Kills' features. He quickly clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and stated in a subdued tone, "Senior, your insight is truly uncanny. Those disciples of the Divine King realm who met their demise did indeed achieve a form of resurrection within the Valley of Sky Burial by employing the Great Void Avatar Art. However, their cultivation base has diminished by a minor realm, and they are presently occupied with consolidating their newfound states. Should you require their presence, I can summon them all to answer your command..."

"The Great Void Avatar Art?"

Ye Yun's eyes gleamed with interest as he gazed upon the Taixu Ancient Dragon below, a sneer touching his lips. "Could this technique have originated from this very creature?"

"Affirmative, Senior. It is a divine skill that I have spent millions of years comprehending and subsequently imparted to certain disciples of the Sect of Seven Kills!"

The Supreme Seven Kills responded with deep respect.

"This Avatar Art of yours does possess certain commendable qualities."

Ye Yun offered a subtle smile.

He found himself quite intrigued by the prospect of acquiring the Great Void Avatar Art, with the intention of passing it down to the disciples of the Dragon God Sect.

Nevertheless.

The current cultivation realms of the Dragon God Sect's disciples were deemed too rudimentary. Adjustments to the Great Void Avatar Art would be necessary before it could be effectively utilized by them.

"Senior, this is the Great Void Avatar Art."

The Supreme Seven Kills swiftly retrieved a jade slip containing the cultivation technique and respectfully tendered it to Ye Yun.

"Supreme Seven Kills, you demonstrate commendable pragmatism."

Ye Yun casually accepted the slip, gave it a brief perusal, and then emitted a smile laden with hidden meaning.

This particular acquisition held little direct utility for him personally.

His motive for taking it was solely for the benefit of the Dragon God Sect's disciples.

After all, mastering the Great Void Avatar Art would effectively grant each disciple of the Dragon God Sect a semblance of an additional existence, a second chance.

It must be stated.

Ye Yun, in his capacity as the thirteenth patriarch of the Dragon God Sect, genuinely dedicated his entire being to nurturing and safeguarding the disciples of the younger generations.

"Senior, you greatly flatter me. A mere divine skill like mine is as insignificant as a firefly’s glow compared to your resplendent sun and moon brilliance..."

Upon hearing Ye Yun’s praise, Supreme Seven Kills’ face flushed, and he responded with some awkwardness.

Ye Yun’s gaze traversed the seven Supremes, and he inquired with a calm demeanor,"I shall claim the Taixu Ancient Dragon. Does anyone among you harbor any objections?"

"Senior, please, do take it. We harbor absolutely no objections," the seven Supremes replied in unison.

Even if granted a millionfold the courage, they would never dare to refuse.

This formidable senior evidently paid no mind to the Heavenly Dao itself.

In the eyes of this senior, they were as inconsequential as mere ants.

Lifting the eye of the Taixu Ancient Dragon, Ye Yun let out a sigh and articulated,"The Taixu Ancient Dragon is endowed with the innate divine ability of the void, and you are but a fragment of its avatar. Endeavor to gain mastery over it!"

"Yes, my Lord!" the Taixu Ancient Dragon exclaimed with evident excitement.

Ye Yun then tossed the eye toward it.

Concurrently, with a swift movement of the Heaven-Slaying Sword, those semi-transparent chains were effortlessly severed by him.

Forming a grand hand gesture, Ye Yun proceeded to extract the chains embedded within the Taixu Ancient Dragon’s body and cast them aside.

As this eye traversed the air, it progressively enlarged until it finally settled into the vacant eye socket of the Taixu Ancient Dragon.

This particular eye socket had, in fact, been devoid of an eye.

Furthermore, this Taixu Ancient Dragon was not an entirely complete entity.

Apart from its missing eye, its horns were fractured, one claw was absent, and its tail had been severed.

It was thus conceivable how substantial the contributions of the Taixu Ancient Dragon must have been during the past tumultuous conflicts amongst the Super Divine Dragons.

...

Following the eye’s integration into the body, there was an initial period of complete stillness.

Ye Yun waited patiently.

The Taixu Ancient Dragon naturally commanded the power of the void, and its draconic form was, in essence, constructed almost entirely from the essence of the void.

Given sufficient time, this vestige of its avatar would undoubtedly attain control over its physical manifestation.

After a considerable interval with still no discernible change in the Taixu Ancient Dragon, Ye Yun began to feel a sense of boredom. His gaze settled upon the Supreme Seven Kills nearby, and he commented with a smile,"The Taishang Ancestor of the Sect of Seven Kills and that Sect Master truly possessed considerable audacity back then, even daring to harbor avarice for the Heaven-Slaying Sword..."

"Senior, those two are utterly without scruples. I shall apprehend them immediately and execute them in your presence!" Supreme Seven Kills declared hastily, his heart pounding with trepidation.

"A few insignificant gnats, they have already met their demise once. There is no necessity to end their lives again; keep them... they might prove useful in some future endeavor!" Ye Yun remarked with a forgiving smile, shaking his head.

"Senior, in that case, I shall summon them forthwith to offer their apologies to you!" Supreme Seven Kills promptly suggested.

Ye Yun inclined his head in assent.

With a sweeping gesture, Supreme Seven Kills produced a large hand formation, and two figures materialized amidst flashes of light that illuminated the void.

These two individuals, who had been deeply engrossed in their meditation, suddenly perceived a potent aura in their vicinity, startling both the Taishang Ancestor and the middle-aged man, causing them to simultaneously open their eyes.

"What is this..."

The two surveyed their immediate surroundings and were utterly astonished by the spectacle that unfolded before them.
