Tang Zheng and Heaven Monk stared at each other. This dragon was not easy to fool either, its attitude towards this matter was so resolute that there was no leeway.
What should he do?
Could he have stopped halfway?
"Kid, it's just an imperial city, it's not that big of a deal. Moreover, there's no actual use for it right now." The Heaven Monk advised.
Tang Zheng waved his hand: "Don't say anymore, I can't."
"You're still as stubborn as ever. I really can't do anything to you." Heaven Monk rolled his eyes helplessly.
Tang Zheng stared straight at the golden dragon, and said: "I have told you clearly, it is impossible to destroy the Imperial City. Do you have any other ways to remove the Inescapable Net Formation?"
"The other way, hmph, is not possible unless you reach Deity Transformation Stage level in your cultivation." The golden dragon said confidently.
It was a little surprised at how determined and persistent this human was.
"Deity Transformation Stage." Tang Zheng and Heaven Monk were both surprised that they needed such a high cultivation level. Heaven Monk said in a low voice: "Brat, then we won't be able to break the array for a while."
Of course Tang Zheng knew that the Heaven Monk was only in the Core Formation Stage realm and there was still one more stage left to the Deity Transformation Stage, so he simply could not meet the requirements.
"But we must know this secret today. It is a matter of great importance."
Tang Zheng nodded his head to express his understanding, and said: "I can promise you one thing, if you can tell us this secret, I will definitely save you. If you don't tell us, you will be imprisoned here until your death."
"Hmph, I won't speak if you don't save me."
"I said that I would definitely save you once I save you. At most, you would only be locked up for a few more years, or perhaps more than ten years. Or else, you would die of old age here. Can't you calculate this?" Tang Zheng asked indignantly.
"A few years, or more than ten years? Haha, you think too highly of yourself. You are only at the fourth stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage, wanting to reach the Deity Transformation Stage so quickly is simply wishful thinking. " The golden dragon said disdainfully.
"I can't do it, but he can't?"
"Hmph, don't think that I don't know, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in this world is extremely thin, and can't even be compared to what it used to be like. Even if he wanted to reach Deity Transformation Stage in about ten years, do you think you can ask him?"
Tang Zheng looked at Heaven Monk in shock: "Aren't you already in the Core Formation Stage realm? Isn't there only a Nascent Soul Stage realm away from the Deity Transformation Stage? How can you not? "
Heaven Monk gave a bitter laugh, "Brat, don't try to use that kind of abnormal cultivation method on others. The further you cultivate, the more difficult it becomes. It is possible for you to take more than ten years to break through a single realm."
Tang Zheng was speechless.
"How is it? Do you know that what I said was the truth? It's not that I despise you, it's just that you want to reach the Deity Transformation Stage in such a short time, unless a miracle happens. " The golden dragon said complacently.
Tang Zheng gritted his teeth as his thoughts spun around rapidly. In the end, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the golden dragon firmly: "I believe that I can reach there. In at most twenty years, I will definitely reach the Deity Transformation Stage and rescue you out."
It was not that Tang Zheng was arrogant, it was just that he was confident. His cultivation speed in the Nine Yang Holy Body was many times faster than others, furthermore, there was still the Prehistoric Heavenly Tomb.
The golden dragon evidently did not believe Tang Zheng's words, and said: "Despicable human, you want to lie to me again? I won't be fooled. "
Heaven Monk's heart moved, and said: "He is the Nine Yang Holy Body, a cultivation genius that is hard to come by in a thousand years. If I can't do it, maybe he can really do it."
"Nine Yang Holy Body?" The golden dragon looked at Tang Zheng curiously, "Hmph, Nine Yang Holy Body is useless too, it's impossible to do it. Only the legendary Heavenly Mission Performer would be able to do it."
"Heavenly Mission Performer?"
It was the first time that Tang Zheng and the Heaven Monk had heard of this term, "What is a Heavenly Mission Performer?"
"Heavenly Mission Performer is a cultivation genius that only appears once every ten thousand years. Furthermore, Heavenly Mission Performer has an enormous secret on his body, and is much more powerful than your so-called Nine Yang Holy Body."
"I'm surprised I heard that word for the first time." The Heaven Monk muttered to himself.
"Of course you don't know. This is a secret of the dragon race. How could ordinary people know about it?" The golden dragon said arrogantly.
"If the Heavenly Mission Performer can do it, why can't I do it?" Tang Zheng was not convinced.
"Human, it's not that I'm looking down on you, but it's really impossible for you."
Tang Zheng was filled with anger, was Heavenly Mission Performer this powerful?
Tshh Tshh!
Suddenly, Xiao Bai called out, jumped off Tang Zheng's shoulder, and then pulled at Tang Zheng's pants as she desperately tried to pull it towards the golden dragon.
"Hey, Xiao Bai, what are you doing?" Xiao Bai's strength was very strong, and Tang Zheng was dragged unsteadily towards the golden dragon.
Tshh Tshh!
Xiao Bai shouted but did not stop. Instead, it worked even harder, and in the blink of an eye, she had pulled Tang Zheng underneath the gigantic body of the golden dragon.
Tang Zheng raised his head, he could more clearly feel the dragon's might of this enormous being, and actually had an urge to make people kneel before him.
With Xiao Bai's protection, Tang Zheng believed that the golden dragon would not dare to hurt him. However, he was very curious as to what Xiao Bai actually wanted to do.
Xiao Bai screamed and pointed at Tang Zheng.
The golden dragon revealed a puzzled look, but she understood what Xiao Bai meant, and slowly swiped at Tang Zheng's shoulder with its dragon claw.
Heaven Monk turned pale with fright as he cried out, "Bastard, be careful!"
Xiao Bai was not afraid at all but was encouraging Tang Zheng with its eyes. Tang Zheng's heart was moved, Xiao Bai would not harm him, it had to have some deeper meaning for doing so.
"Heaven Monk, don't worry, I will be fine."
Tang Zheng took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to run away from the depths of his heart, and watched as the gigantic dragon claw landed on his shoulder.
Xiao Bai, on the other hand, opened its eyes wide in excitement, jumping up and down, squeaking with a proud look.
Heaven Monk's heart was about to jump out. Even though he was an old fellow who had lived for many years, this was the first time he had seen such a scene.
Even a thousand years ago, a dragon was a very rare existence. Moreover, it was high up in the sky; ordinary cultivators would never be able to see a True Dragon.
Actually, this was also the first time Heaven Monk had seen a True Dragon. He was truly stunned by the scene before his eyes. Vaguely, he seemed to have some kind of indescribable expectation in his heart, as he stared at Tang Zheng without blinking.
Tang Zheng was also extremely nervous, for the legendary dragon to be so close to him, and to have its body come into contact with him, any other person would probably think the same.
In the face of such powerful might from a dragon, he did not sit down on the ground and reveal a cowardly look. Taking a deep breath, he tried his best to remain calm.
The golden dragon's eyes were originally filled with suspicion, so it was unclear what Xiao Bai's intentions were. However, when its claws landed on Tang Zheng's shoulder, its pupils quickly determined and its golden eyes bloomed with a dazzling golden light, causing the entire hall to become a sea of gold.
Tang Zheng turned pale with fright. What was going on, fortunately his body did not feel any strange at all, or else he would definitely have launched a counterattack.
The doubt in the golden dragon's eyes had been completely replaced by shock. It looked at Tang Zheng and cried out in alarm: "How is that possible, you're actually Heavenly Mission Performer."
"What, I am Heavenly Mission Performer?" Tang Zheng was also shocked. Even the Heaven Monk started to shout loudly, cursing loudly, "F * ck!"
The golden dragon withdrew its claws, looked at Tang Zheng in disbelief, and said: "You actually have nine main meridians s and a pure Yang body, you are Heavenly Mission Performer."
Tang Zheng realised, these two points were the characteristics of the Heavenly Mission Performer, he could not help but remember that the Heaven Monk once said that he was not human, and it seems like he was the Heavenly Mission Performer.
The Heavenly Mission Performer is also a human.
He finally no longer bothered about whether he was a human or not. He felt gratified, but he was still excited about the fact that Heavenly Mission Performer was so powerful in the golden dragon's mouth, as this meant that he could reach the Deity Transformation Stage in a short 10 years.
"Since you know that I am from Heavenly Mission Performer, then you can believe my words." Tang Zheng chased after him and asked.
The golden dragon was still in a state of shock and had yet to recover from its shock. It muttered to itself, "No wonder this mysterious fellow was subdued by you, it also knew that you are Heavenly Mission Performer."
Hearing this, Xiao Bai excitedly jumped up and down, and directly jumped onto Tang Zheng's shoulder in the end.
Tang Zheng patted its head and said, "So you already knew I was Heavenly Mission Performer."
Xiao Bai nodded seriously. However, Xiao Bai was not someone who could speak like the golden dragon, so even if he knew the secret, he had no way of telling Tang Zheng.
The golden dragon's eyes gradually recovered its luster, and became lively and energetic. It stared straight at Tang Zheng and said: "I can see the Heavenly Mission Performer that only happens once every ten thousand years, and it is even in this world where no cultivators exist, it is really too mystical. Although I have been imprisoned here for hundreds of years, to be able to see the Heavenly Mission Performer for just a few hundred years is worth it."
Tang Zheng blushed with shame, he never thought that he would have such charisma, like a star, and this golden dragon was like a fan of his.
However, since he had met a fan, this matter could be easily dealt with. He coughed and said, "Since that's the case, then tell me the secret behind the disappearance of the cultivators."
"Of course you can, but I hope that you will have the time to come see me in these years. I am imprisoned here by myself for several hundred years, and no one talks to me. I am going insane." The golden dragon said expectantly.
Tang Zheng hesitated for a bit. Since he was going to stay in the capital for four years, it would be good if he had the time to come visit him, but this place would definitely be a good place to cultivate. It was said that there was a golden dragon by his side, protecting him, no one could hurt him while he was cultivating.
It was exciting to think about such things, so he nodded without hesitation.
The golden dragon also seemed to be rather happy, and said: "Haha, wait a little longer, I can finally see the light of day again. Hmph, the people who imprisoned me back then have already died, if not I would definitely eat them all."
"..." Tang Zheng was speechless, this fellow actually wanted to eat someone without saying a word, it really was a glutton. It seemed that in the future, he would have to educate it so that it could change this smelly disease.
Heaven Monk did not expect the situation to turn around so quickly, and excitedly said: "Brat, quickly tell it to speak."
"Then tell me the secret behind the disappearance of the cultivators." Tang Zheng said lightly.
