but that does not matter either! " Bai Qingfu and Bai Qü'er unraveled the dragon tongue in the nest one by one and taught it to Shen Mu, though there were still some characters even they could not understand. "If Father were here, it would be better.

His bloodline is higher, and he could surely unravel all of this dragon tongue completely. " Bai Qü'er's eyes sparkled as she said sweetly: "Brother Mu, stay a few more days in Bailong City, and wait for my father to return. " Shen Mu nodded, already greatly satisfied at heart.

The brother and sister had already helped him unravel many of the mysteries of the dragon tongue. Less than ten percent of the dragon tongue in the True Dragon's Nest remained unsolved, and the True Dragon Lord's techniques had been advanced a great distance further by the three of them, becoming even more formidable!

Bai Qingfu tried to activate the true-dragon technique and felt his cultivation rising at flying speed, his foundation growing ever more solid, making up for previous deficiencies. He could not help saying with delight: "Brother Shen, if I cultivated the techniques in the True Dragon's Nest, at the same realm, you might not be able to defeat me!

" The three of them walked out of the True Dragon's Nest. Shen Mu put the nest into his Taotie Pouch and said with a shake of his head: "Even if Brother Bai cultivated the True Dragon Lord's techniques, he might not be able to defeat me.

I am a Tyrant Body—at the same realm, I have few rivals.

" Bai Qü'er's eyes went wide, and Bai Qingfu looked bewildered. "Tyrant Body? Brother Shen, what is a Tyrant Body?

" Bai Qingfu asked humbly: "I have always only moved about the vicinity of Bailong City. I went to the Heavenly Court a few times before, but only listened to those true-god elders preach the dao. I do not know many things and am utterly ignorant of this Tyrant Body. Brother Shen must have traveled widely and know a great deal.

Might I ask Brother Shen to enlighten me? " Shen Mu was about to explain when suddenly a great laugh came from afar: "Qingfu, your Bai family has honored guests, and you did not even call us? " "Qingfu, I saw you get beaten.

That is what you get for being so smug all the time—now you have been thrashed in front of the whole city, have you not?

" Shen Mu looked toward the voice and saw many young people walking over, men and women alike, all with soaring spirits and extraordinary looks.

Bai Qingfu said hurriedly: "They are the young generation of experts of our Bailong City, all come to laugh at me. Brother Shen, let me introduce you. " He introduced everyone, then introduced Shen Mu to them, speaking of how Shen Mu had created Sword Form Eighteen and mentioning that Shen Mu was a Tyrant Body. Everyone was greatly shocked.

A youth rose, his fighting spirit blazing, and said loudly: "Shen the Tyrant Body, you say your Tyrant Body is so formidable, truly able to suppress all peers with no rival? I do not believe it.

Might I ask for instruction? " Shen Mu rose to his full height and said with a smile: "I was just thinking of exchanging a few moves with you all!

" The youth shook himself and transformed into a bird-headed, human-bodied form with a pair of wings sprouting from his back. He shot up into the sky, golden feathers fluttering.

Shen Mu soared into the air, and the two clashed in midair. The crowd below watched, dazzled and shaken, cheering again and again.

In but a moment, the youth's swordsmanship was broken, and he fell. "Let me try Shen the Tyrant Body!

" Another young woman, itching to test her skill, also charged in. She too was of the dragon clan, but she followed a fierce and domineering path, highly cultivated in dragon-clan spells and divine abilities. Divine power burst from her fingers and palms, its might terrifying.

Shen Mu activated the Great Nurturing Dark Demon Scripture.

With a single move, the Great Luo Heaven Star Palm, more than three hundred divine abilities of the starry heavens burst forth at once, striking the young woman down. "Excellent divine ability! " Admiration rose from below.

Another young man charged into the sky, but after only a few exchanges, Shen Mu cut him down with a single blade.

One after another the crowd came forward, only to be defeated in turn.

Bai Qü'er was inexplicably elated and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, what do you think of him? " "Outstanding. Too outstanding.

" Bai Qingfu's wife smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "Now I am a little worried for you. " Bai Qü'er too felt worry rise in her heart, somewhat anxious.

"Shen the Tyrant Body—truly worthy of the name Tyrant Body!

" Bai Qingfu laughed heartily and invited Shen Mu to take his seat again. Looking around at everyone, he said in a loud voice: "Do you think Brother Shen can fight his way up to the Heavenly Court and teach a lesson to those Heavenly Court prodigies who turn their noses up at everyone?

" Everyone laughed in unison: "He can!

" A young woman said with a smile: "I think Brother Shen's techniques and divine abilities simply surpass an entire era.

They are truly ingenious and thought-provoking.

It seems that from Brother Shen's dao techniques and divine abilities, countless possibilities could be created, evolving the dao techniques and divine abilities of our Shanghuang Era to their utmost!

" The others nodded one after another and said with smiles: "We feel the same!

" Bai Qingfu proposed: "Brother Shen, when this Beiluo Shimen campaign is over, let us go to the Heavenly Court together and knock down those fellows who turn their noses up at everyone!

What do you all say—shall we? " "Yes! " Everyone's laughter soared to the heavens.

Shen Mu laughed heartily as well, exchanging divine abilities and dao techniques with them, utterly without any awareness that he might change history.

In a corner of the banquet, Ban Gongcuo's face was ashen. He glanced at the dragon qilin, already full and asleep, then looked at the chest, which had drawn in its four legs and hidden in the shadows, and thought: "How is this changing history? This is poking dozens of great holes in history! We are dead, dead for certain, unable to return, and may even vanish outright.

.

. " His heart was filled with boundless dread: "Even Sword Form Eighteen has been spread by this bastard. This is going to overturn heaven and earth!

Damn you, Shen, you have doomed me!

" At the banquet, everyone laughed and talked merrily, drinking themselves into a stupor, sprawling every which way. Bai Qü'er, summoning her courage, dragged Shen Mu off to dance.

Shen Mu's face flushed red, and unable to break free, he had no choice but to dance a tune with her, while everyone laughed heartily. Just then, suddenly a rumbling sound came from afar, as if the sky were collapsing. A world-shaking roar surged with darkness and waves of qi, crashing thunderously against Bailong City, and the entire city trembled violently.
