"Three Palaces and Four Courtyards, you destroyed my Heavenly Dragon Palace. I would rather fight to the death than surrender! Even in my next life, I will surely slaughter every one of you!"

Bai Zhan roared in anger, jolted awake from his dream. His fists clenched, his eyes blazing with a terrifying murderous intent.

"Wait, what place is this? I'm not dead? How is that possible? The Three Palaces and Four Huts sent 238 powerful cultivators of the Tong Shen Realm Ninth Level to kill me, setting up a God-slaying Formation. In the end, I simultaneously invoked nine Great Demon Dragon Souls, shattering the formation and causing all the arrangers to be retaliated against and killed. But I should have perished with my soul destroyed?"

At that moment, a strange memory suddenly surfaced in his mind.

"This is the Heavenly Origin Continent, isn't this the lowest level plane world at the edge of the Dragon Abyss? I've been reborn!"

Very soon, Bai Zhan felt an extremely powerful force surging within him. Below his vision, nine black dragon souls, each a foot long, were constantly moving around him. Surprise flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly released a domineering aura with a loud laugh: "Hahaha, I didn't expect you all to be here. It seems that my soul being able to cross several dimensions to get here must have been done by you guys. Since I, Bai Zhan, am not dead, in this life, I will definitely return to the Huanglong Domain and take revenge on the Three Palaces and Four Pavilions. You all just wait for me!"

This vast world possesses countless celestial realms. The Desolate Dragon Realm is merely one of the fourth-rank celestial realms, and the Heavenly Dragon Hall is the most formidable power within it. It has always led the Three Palaces and Four Pavilions in waging war against other celestial realms. Bai Zhan never expected that the loyal Three Palaces and Four Pavilions would secretly join forces to destroy his Heavenly Dragon Hall.

"If, if back then my Jiulong Zhantian Jue cultivation had reached the fourth stage's ninth level, even that Slaying God Formation wouldn't have been able to harm me!"

Bai Zhan was able to become the number one powerhouse in the Aolung Domain because he had accidentally obtained a divine Nine Dragons Pearl, and it even recognized him as its master. Not only did he receive nine Demonic Dragon Souls, but he also inherited the supreme martial art, Jiu Long Zhan Tian Jue.

The Nine Dragons War Heaven Decision is divided into nine levels, each with nine sub-levels. It's the only technique to control the nine Great Demon Dragon Souls. It can also plunder the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Not only can it quickly recover from injuries, but it can also cultivate nine Demon Dragon Souls. The constantly released Demon Dragon Qi from these nine souls continuously strengthens him, helping him forge the Nine Dragons God. Most importantly, it can summon the nine Demon Dragon Souls outside to help him kill enemies.

In the past, when Bai Zhan was fighting in the Aolong Region, whenever he went into battle and killed enemies, he would always ride on a nine-headed black demon dragon that was a thousand meters long. The imposing power emitted by the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon could intimidate many other powerful figures from the heavens.

"Interesting, this is just like me in my previous life, I was unable to comprehend the energy of heaven and earth." Bai Zhan looked at the situation at this time, and suddenly smiled to himself.

Through the fused memories, Bai Zhan knew that the original owner of this body was also named Bai Zhan, the master of the Bai family, one of the four prominent families in Tianfeng Town. However, because he couldn't comprehend the essence of heaven and earth's spiritual energy, he couldn't cultivate, becoming a laughingstock to everyone. Although he was considered useless, there were still those who admired him. Just yesterday, he gathered his courage to confess his feelings to Zhao Ying, the young lady of the Zhao family, another one of the four prominent families. Not only was he rejected, but Zhao Ying publicly slapped him in the bustling streets, humiliating him before countless onlookers. She even stomped on him and mocked him mercilessly. Finally, unable to bear the blow, he committed suicide by poison just now.

"It's no wonder this kid isn't capable. The person who did this to Zhao Ying was truly ruthless. Since I've taken over for you, I'll definitely repay this insult a hundredfold. But what I find curious is that this guy has absolutely no memory of his mother." Bai Zhan muttered curiously.

“Since it’s getting late, let’s start practicing the Jiulong Zhantian Jue. I will let the world know that even if one cannot comprehend the essence of heaven and earth’s spiritual energy, relying on sheer terror, one can still dominate the world.” A glint flashed in Bai Zhan’s eyes. He directly crossed his legs and closed his eyes, starting to circulate the Jiulong Zhantian Jue.

Just as the Nine Dragons War Heaven Decision was activated, nine Demonic Dragon Souls began rapidly flitting about Bai Zhan's body. At the same time, the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be pulled by some invisible force, frantically converging towards Bai Zhan.

Countless spiritual energies flowed through Kong Rong into Bai Zhan, causing the nine Demonic Dragon Souls to be completely absorbed. As a result, the nine Demonic Dragon Souls began releasing more and more Demonic Dragon Qi, strengthening him.

Bai Zhan's residence was a remote solitary courtyard. Otherwise, even at night, with such abundant spiritual energy swirling around, it would have certainly attracted the attention of the powerful figures within the manor.

As Bai Zhan plundered more and more of the heaven and earth's spiritual energy, within controllable limits, the air's spiritual energy began to increase, and the flowers and plants surrounding the room started to wither. Life force was being rapidly drained away.

Whew!

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Zhan let out a long breath as he opened his eyes. He saw that the sky outside was already brightening. A hint of a smile appeared on his face as he muttered to himself, "The Nine Dragons War Heaven Jue has a limit with each cultivation cycle. If it weren't for the boy's father having given him pills back then, and those pills' potency settling for many years without dissipating, I wouldn't have been able to break through to the first level of the Tempering Realm. It would be impossible to reach the ninth level."

"The spiritual energy concentration of this world is truly too low. The spiritual energy within the pills seems to be more potent. It looks like I need to find a way to refine some pills." Bai Zhan thought to himself silently.

In his past life, Bai Zhan was a master in the desolate dragon domain in alchemy, array formations, and even cultivation. All of this was thanks to the magic dragon soul and the Nine Dragons Warring Heaven Art!

Peng!

A black flame suddenly surged from Bai Zhan's right palm.

"Mo Longyan, although his level is relatively low now, he can refine some low-grade pills. When combined with the Jiulong Zhantian Jue, he forcibly plunder the surrounding heaven and earth spiritual energy into the pills, which can produce high-quality pills. Today is the day of the family's annual strength assessment. It seems that my father should be there." Bai Zhan put away Mo Longyan and pushed open the door directly, walking towards the family training ground.

When Bai Zhan arrived at the training ground, a middle-aged man in white robes and an imposing demeanor saw him from afar and asked, "Why is Zhan here?"

"Palm print stone six points, Bai Xue, tempered realm sixth level!"

"Five minutes of the handprint stone, white pine, tempered realm fivefold!"

One by one, young men from the Bai family stepped onto the platform. Facing a massive rock, they unleashed their strongest blows to gauge their strength.

Peng!

At that moment, a loud bang caught everyone's attention.
