Targaryen Who Turned Dragon

"I believe now is a better time than ever. Without delay, bend the knee if you are willing to serve and stay standing if you are not."

After unleashing his tyrannical aura upon the heaven chosen children, they couldn't help but bend. That was true, except for one; the Eternal Heaven God Emperor himself. Aerion's violet gaze narrowed in on him but did not unleash any form of killing intent.

'It is unfortunate that someone as great as the Eternal Heaven God Emperor must stand against me. He exhausted the Eternal Heaven Pearl's power on the geniuses of the Eastern Divine Region to face the upcoming calamity, something he didn't have to do. He could have kept it exclusively for the Eternal Heaven Realm...'

Aerion sighed.

'I can still try to convince him otherwise since someone as noble and honourable as the Eternal Heaven God Emperor deserves a second chance.'

"This unification is for the good of the God Realm and Primal Chaos as a whole. The Primal Chaos Dimension requires a single ruler to lead it to greatness... being separated, greedy and hateful of each other hasn't led Primal Chaos anywhere in millions of years. This is the only way forward!"

"How many have you slaughtered to attain this position?"

"It was a necessary sacrifice," Aerion replied. "Some fools need to be made an example of. Hmph, bloodshed was needed but, in the long-term, I have saved far more people than I have slaughtered. Under my Divine rule, star realms will no longer be able to wage wars against each other and will work for the greater of the Empire instead. The Northern Divine Region will be put in its place once and for all, as well... ah, but the poor fools who stood against me. Through my fire and their blood, I will bring an eternal era of peace, prosperity and justice!"

"What are their small numbers in comparison to that? Let me tell you... they mean absolutely nothing!"

"And this is why he is King," Robb muttered as he looked up at Aerion. "Master, you must not anger him further or I will have to take action against you myself. You should bend the knee while you still can."

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor nodded, having been convinced by Aerion's grand speech, and bent the knee. "If this is for the good of the Eastern Divine Region, then I have no issue with it."

"You convinced him to bend the knee with just your words. Hahaha, the Emperor might even be unnecessary at this point." Rotias stated.

'It still has its use against truly foolish individuals.'

"You may all rise! There are a couple of matters which must be settled immediately. Zhou Xuzi, I want you to present the Eternal Heaven Pearl to me."

"This... what would be the point of that?" The Eternal Heaven God Emperor replied.

"All Seven Heavenly treasures have been declared to be Targaryen property by this Dragon Emperor. Although the Eternal Heaven Pearl has been completely exhausted, it is still a Heavenly Treasure and this Dragon Emperor intends to acquire it. Consider this as your first task under me."

"Our great ancestor would not agree to leave the Eternal Heaven Realm, your Divine Grace." Tai Yu stated as he saw the Eternal Heaven God Emperor's hesitation.

"Then we will have to humble her." Aerion dismounted from Rhaegal and floated in the air. "Lead the way, Eternal Heaven God Emperor."

"As you wish..."

"The rest of you will wait."

Aerion entered the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm with the Zhou Xuzi and flew to the lowest point of the Eternal Heaven Tower. The Eternal Heaven Pearl floated in the air and looked rather dull for a Heavenly Treasure.

Aerion grasped it with his left hand and a spirit emerged.

"The Eternal Heaven Realm is not enough for you, it seems. The Eternal Heaven Pearl will remain in the Eternal Heaven Realm... although I do not have the strength to oppose you, I can assure that you won't attain the powers of the Eternal Heaven Pearl."

"Is that so?" Aerion chuckled. "You overestimate yourself."

Silver Calamity.

Ghost flames emerged from his palm and burned away the spirit of the Eternal Heaven Realm's great ancestor completely. Then he opened the Seventh Heaven Pearl and placed the Eternal Heaven Pearl inside of it.

'Another Heavenly Treasure has been added to my collection.'

"The great ancestor..."

"She is dead." Aerion turned around. "Now that the Eternal Heaven Pearl is secured, we will deal with the Crimson Crack."

The entire Eternal Heaven Divine Realm slowly disappeared after the Eternal Heaven Pearl entered the Seventh Heaven Realm. The two returned to the Eternal Heaven Realm within a few minutes of leaving it.

"That was swift, My Lord." Robb bowed.

"I see that you have reached the late stages of the Divine Master Realm. You have definitely surprised me, Robb." Aerion drew out Naeron's remains and gave it all to Robb. "This is for the white lightning three years ago. Do not fret, I had no use for it anyway."

"Thank you, My Lord." Robb's golden aura emerged and it was no longer unstable. It formed a rather fierce golden lion which was far beyond that of the Divine Master Realm. Robb suppressed his aura and it returned to him. His cultivation strength shot upwards into the peak of the Divine Master Realm soon after.

"Three years without me, hmm, I wonder how you managed to cope with that?" Izanami inquired.

Aerion chuckled. "I would say the same thing to you, except for the fact that it was three thousand years."

"It was difficult at first but, eventually, I managed to focus my mind solely on cultivation. Hmph, as you have so many wives, my absence must have been rather easy for you to deal with."

"No, not at all. There's only one Izanami in the world, after all. Although I wouldn't say it was extremely difficult, life just wasn't the same. Something was clearly missing and that was no one else but you, my dear wife."

"Such sweet words, you should prove them once the matters of the Northern Divine Region and the Crimson Crack are settled."

"It would be my p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e." Aerion smiled and then turned his attention to the rest, observing their cultivation. "Five peak Divine Masters and one Divine Extinction Realm profound practitioner. The Eternal Heaven Pearl is worthy of its position as a Heavenly Treasure, indeed."

'Izanami broke through into the Divine Extinction Realm?'

"Raela is an Ancestral Goddess so she knows exactly how to break through past the Divine Master Realm. With this wisdom and the resources you have provided, it must have been rather simple." Rotias remarked.

"With this, the Eastern Divine Region is indisputably the mightiest out of the four..."

"Big Brother Aerion, you haven't forgotten about me in these three years, have you?" Shui Meiyin asked, rather sweetly.

"Of course not. Your father did not miss a beat when it came to reminding me of our engagement. It remains unchanged and so, you'll this Dragon Emperor's wife soon enough. Once Primal Chaos is unified, the arrangements will be made. As long as you are still willing, that is. Many things can change in three thousand years."

'Six wives and 4 wifes-to-be. Then there's Shen Xi and Xia Qingyue as well... I truly wonder Nan Wansheng handled his ten thousand concubines. I suppose he did not pay much attention to them. Concubines cannot be compared to wives, after all. Then again, Feng Hengkong has over four hundred and sixty wives...'

"You need not worry about that." Shui Meiyin smiled. "Big Brother Aerion's place in my heart has only strengthened in those years."

"Hmph, you were the only person she could think about," Izanami added.

"Oh, you two were together?"

"For quite some time, in fact. Me and Senior Sister Izanami have been on excellent terms ever since we started cultivating together." Shui Meiyin stated.

"That is wonderful to hear." Aerion nodded. "Enough of the small talk, I want everyone above the Divine Master Realm in terms of battle strength to gather at the formation over there. The rest of you are to prepare for the coming conquest of the Northern Divine Region which will begin in a day or so."

"As you command, your Divine Grace!"

"Royal Father, can I go as well?" Aurion inquired.

"No, you will stay with your Royal Mother."

"It isn't that dangerous, right? Royal Father can deal with whatever threat there is with the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword. There's also Aunt Shen Xi who's a True God... I only wish to observe the spectacle anyway. Hehe, I might even gain some valuable experience."

Aerion shook his head. "No, you will stay and that is final."

"Aw... alright, I'll stay."

"Good."

Aerion walked to the teleportation formation where only Long Bai, Robb, Izanami and Shen Xi had gathered.

"If there is a fight, then a mere Divine Master wouldn't amount to much which is why I only asked for those above the Divine Master Realm."

"You did not want unnecessary casualties which is understandable." Shen Xi nodded.

"Honestly, I do hope there's a fight because I'm raring to see the full extent of my new power," Robb stated.

"He's definitely stronger than you with the God Piercing Spear finally in his possession along with the peak Divine Master Realm cultivation and his complete legacy," Rotias remarked. "But it took him a whole three thousand years. Hm, there will never quite be a genius like yourself it seems."

'That's a good thing as I'll finally have a worthy sparring partner.'

The group of the God Realm's finest entered the formation and crossed to the very edge of the Eastern Divine Region, where the Crimson Crack was located. Aerion observed it and, without wasting much time, withdrew the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword.

"Prepare yourselves for the worst."

'Shatter.'

Sky Collapsing Sword.
