The Old Man couldn't help but take a step back, as Hei Jiao had just undergone a tribulation, and his overwhelming aura had yet to fully subside.
Hei Jiao looked at the Old Man and said lightly, "Royalty?"
The Old Man quickly cupped his hands in apology. "I didn't know the Dragon King was undergoing a tribulation. I apologize for the offense."
Hei Jiao's eyes flickered. "That's not right. When you arrived, you were radiating killing intent. Did you intend to kill me?"
The Old Man's heart sank, cursing the old emperor a thousand times in his mind. Wasn't it said that a Black Python demon was involved?
A Black Python Jiao could not be an ordinary demon. Was this an intentional trap set for him? He felt an intense desire to go back and deal with the old emperor.
He let out a long breath, shaking his head repeatedly. "The Dragon King has misunderstood; it’s not like that. I was merely drawn here."
He dared not admit that the aura of Hei Jiao was far too powerful. With his own Transcendence Period strength, he felt an overwhelming sense of danger.
Hei Jiao looked at the Old Man with a cold smile. "So, do you think I believe you?"
The Old Man's heart tightened. "What do you want? This is the capital of Da Li; there are stronger beings in the forbidden grounds."
Hei Jiao raised an eyebrow. "What is your current strength?"
The Old Man glanced at Hei Jiao in confusion; wasn't his strength obvious? But he still answered honestly, "Transcendence Period, but I have yet to undergo my tribulation."
Hei Jiao's eyes flashed. "And after the tribulation? You ascend?"
The Old Man's expression grew even more peculiar. Was he being deliberately obtuse or genuinely unaware?
Of course not; previously, one could ascend after undergoing tribulation, but the passage for ascension had been severed, making it impossible to ascend now. The Old Man sighed.
Hei Jiao was taken aback. "So you can't ascend? Does that mean you'll be stuck in this realm?"
The Old Man's eyes flickered for a moment. "Not necessarily. If one's strength is sufficiently powerful, it is possible to break through space and forcefully ascend."
Hei Jiao paused, only that phrase resonating in his mind: breaking through space.
"Has anyone succeeded?" Hei Jiao asked earnestly.
"No," the Old Man shook his head. "The Overseas Dragon Clan tried but failed, leading to their souls scattering."
Hei Jiao fell silent, not wanting to trap this realm. What lay beyond the tribulation?
The Old Man glanced at Hei Jiao, increasingly certain that he was facing a wild Jiao Long. A thought crossed his mind—if he could persuade him to join the Da Li Wang.
With that in mind, he answered more seriously, "After undergoing tribulation and ascending, one reaches the Earth Immortal Realm. Unfortunately, ascension is not possible; one can only become a Ren Xian. Moreover, due to the influence of the Small Realm Rule, Jin Jing has a lifespan of only three hundred years, while those in the Yuan Shen Realm have five hundred. Even if one becomes a Ren Xian after tribulation, they would only have eight hundred years of life, unable to break through the thousand-year mark."
As he spoke, a look of sorrow appeared on his face; his own lifespan was also running short.
Hei Jiao felt a chill in his heart. It was too short—this lifespan was far too brief.
"Cough, cough. Dragon King, you have successfully passed your tribulation and reached the Ren Xian realm. Why not join my Da Li?" the Old Man said cautiously.
Hei Jiao was taken aback. "You want to recruit me?"
The Old Man nodded. "Yes, my Great Li Dynasty has some foundation and can definitely help you."
Suddenly, Hei Jiao laughed. "I have already joined another faction."
The Old Man was startled. "Which faction?"
"Black Mountain," Hei Jiao replied with a smile that held a hint of mischief.
"What? The territory of the Black Mountain Old Demon?" The Old Man was taken aback.
The strength of the Black Mountain Old Demon was formidable, and with a Jiao Long on their side, it was easy to imagine that Black Mountain would become a terrifying force to be reckoned with.
