Journey to the West: Sun Wukong's Advice System-Chapter 248 - 243: Qi Luck Like a Dragon and Obstructed by the Heavenly Dao
Chapter 248: Chapter 243: Qi Luck Like a Dragon and Obstructed by the Heavenly Dao
This was a test.
"If the Human Race’s qi can unlock the karmic shackles on Ao Lie and the others, it will be enough to manifest the Way of Humanity!" Sun Wukong stood in the corner of the altar, looking at the scene above Chang’an City.
A group of the Dragon Race transformed into their true forms, circling and roaring in the sky continuously.
Among them, only Ao Lie was a true dragon covered with golden scales; the East Sea Dragon King and the North Sea Dragon King were respectively Azure Dragon and Black Dragon, clustering in front of Ao Lie.
And the deep red karma that surged from their bodies, like chains spreading out, intertwined into a massive blood orb above them, emitting a bone-chilling horrific aura, as if it were the most malevolent thing in the world, making one’s heart tremble with fear at merest glance.
At this moment, Ao Lie remained calm, yet the East Sea Dragon King and the North Sea Dragon King couldn’t help becoming frantic.
Because these karmic shackles were deeply hidden within their bloodlines, usually only restricting their cultivation without causing them harm.
But now that their karmic forces had emerged, once the blood orb of karma burst, it could release infinite power; not only would the Human Race be affected, but their Dragon Race would also be subjected to backlash.
Just then, Emperor of the Great Han, Liu Xiu, holding the Kongtong Seal, shouted, "This is the land of utmost goodness of the Human Race, all evil spirits dispel!"
Inspired by this, the people of the Human Race throughout the city also shouted in unison, "Evil spirits dispel!"
Boom!
A loud roar shook the Three Realms as if breaking some kind of seal, and an endless surge of the Human Race’s qi welled up from various parts of the Imperial Capital, Chang’an, eventually condensing into a golden giant dragon.
"Roar!"
The golden qi giant dragon roared and headed straight for the massive blood orb of karma.
Seeing this scene, the North Sea Dragon King exclaimed, "Since when did the Human Race have such abundant qi?"
The East Sea Dragon King also calmed down, no longer panicked, and said with surprise and joy, "It seems we were overconcerned; perhaps the Human Race’s qi really can resolve the karmic shackles on us!"
If that were true, then they would indeed have hope of becoming Daluo Golden Immortals.
Having heard this, Ao Lie said nothing but felt admiration deep in his heart.
Looking across the Three Realms, probably only he understood what his master had done over the years.
Who could have imagined that those skills and systems of ordinary people, which couldn’t even be considered Spells or Divine Skills, could be so powerful, causing the population of the Great Han of the Human Race to increase tenfold in just thirty years.
And it wasn’t just the population; the overall national power of the Great Han had changed drastically.
If one were to ignore the powers of immortals and gods, the current Human Race was definitely the strongest in history.
Therefore, they might truly have the chance to unlock the karmic shackles with the Human Race’s qi today!
At this moment, in the blink of an eye, the golden qi giant dragon reached the void above and swallowed the massive blood orb of karma, intent on digesting all this karma.
One could see part of the qi giant dragon’s body bulged out significantly and then began to shrink at a visible rate.
This made Ao Lie, the East Sea Dragon King, the North Sea Dragon King, and the rest of the Dragon Race both surprised and excited.
Clearly, the Human Race’s qi was sufficient to resolve the karmic shackles on them!
Liu Xiu also showed a smile because the fates of the Dragon Race and the Human Race had become closely linked; a stronger Dragon Race would naturally benefit the Human Race.
"Roar!"
But at this moment, the golden qi giant dragon suddenly let out a mournful cry, struggling in agony in the air.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
One could see strands of deep red chains emerging from the still-unresolved blood orb of karma, tightly binding the qi giant dragon.
That wasn’t all; even more deep red chains vaguely appeared out of the void, reaching toward the qi giant dragon.
"What is this?!" Ao Lie’s complexion changed drastically.
The blood orb of karma swallowed by the Human Race’s qi giant dragon was just the gathering of karmic shackles on them, not the whole Dragon Race.
But now, for some reason, it seemed as though the whole Dragon Race’s karma was being drawn in, converging toward that blood orb.
The East Sea Dragon King and the North Sea Dragon King became frantic once again; though they weren’t Daluo Golden Immortals, they were experienced enough to recognize the gravity of this sudden development.
If it was just about resolving the karma on them, the Human Race’s qi was definitely enough.
But to resolve the karma of the entire Dragon Race, the current qi of the Human Race was far from sufficient!
"Master, what should we do now?" Ao Lie looked at Sun Wukong on the altar; this situation was clearly beyond his ability to resolve.
If the entire Dragon Race’s karma descended, letting more deep red chains fall upon the Human Race’s qi giant dragon, then both races would face a huge calamity today!
After all, it was the sin committed by the Dragon Race in the Ancient Era, which, even after the long passage of time, had not lessened much.
At this moment, Sun Wukong’s expression remained unchanged; he had anticipated this, but he did not expect it to come so soon.
The karmic shackles of the Dragon Race came from the Heavenly Dao, and it seemed clear that the Heavenly Dao did not want to see the Dragon Race become strong again.
If the karma on Ao Lie and the others was resolved, it would be of extraordinary significance to the entire Dragon Race, meaning that their race had the hope of breaking free from their predicament.
More importantly, if the Dragon Race became stronger, it would also help the Human Race break free from its current status.
"So to speak, is Daozu actually the villain?" Sun Wukong looked up at the sky.
The Human Race is the leader of all spirits in the human path; if Daozu wanted the human path to be forever under the Heavenly Dao, then he would not want to see the Human Race escape his control.
"Hehe, but the Three Realms are not the Vast Wilderness!" Sun Wukong sneered. The Three Realms had too many rules and restrictions, but also more opportunities.
What needed to be done now was to resolve the karmic shackles on Ao Lie and the others before the karma of the entire Dragon Race descended; this would naturally avert the crisis.
