1941  Destroying the Ancient Monolith

After entering the Dragon Spiral Mountain, the Dragon Emperor led Yuan to the mouth of a colossal cave, its entrance veiled in a faint, ancient pressure. As they approached, the Nine Dragon Symbols within Yuan stirred restlessly, trembling with excitement. Whatever it was resonating with was inside the cave. "This is the first time an outsider has visited this place," said Holy Dragon Emperor as they reached the entrance.

"It's an honor," Yuan smiled.

"However, if you fail to prove your identity, you won't be able to leave this place alive."

"..."

"Let's go."

The Dragon Emperor entered the cave, and Yuan calmly followed him. Xi Meili quietly trailed behind Yuan, staying close to him. Due to her lack of cultivation, just being in the presence of so many powerful beings was a challenge for her.

After traversing a shadowed tunnel, they emerged into a vast, dimly lit cavern. At its center stood a towering monolith, ancient and imposing, its presence dominating the chamber in solemn silence.

'That monolith must be the cause for the Nine Dragon Symbol's unrest…' Yuan narrowed his gaze at the Ancient Monolith.

The Dragon Emperor came to a halt about a dozen meters from the monolith, then turned to face Yuan.

"Only those who hold the highest status within the Holy Dragon Clan are permitted to enter this place," he said calmly. "So rest assured—everyone present is just as qualified as I am to witness your proof."
