Chapter 155 - 118 Dynasty Dragon Lord

Chapter 155: Chapter 118 Dynasty Dragon LordJi Xinghuo’s eyes suddenly widened. Before this, his attention was entirely on the artifact connected to him, neglecting many situations within the magnetic field. Now, with just a slight sensing, he was frightened. Two Heavenly Kings! Within a range of less than two hundred meters around the arrow-shaped artifact, there were two terrifying humanoid magnetic fields! Their strength was on par with the "Zeus" magnetic field he had sensed at the Midpoint Fortress—one stronger, one weaker. The stronger was only slightly inferior to Heinrich, while the weaker one might be one or two ranks lower but was definitely a strong contender at the Heavenly King Level. In the Star Realm, they were collectively referred to as Sixth Rank. Beyond the two Heavenly Kings, there were two other terrifying presences in that structure, but their magnetic fields were not humanoid. They were two True Dragons! This was Ji Xinghuo’s first encounter with True Dragons, having only heard of them before. But he could immediately confirm that they were dragons. Due to their massive size, the smaller dragon was about thirty meters long, while the larger one was nearly forty meters. The True Dragons are one of the dominant races in the Star Realm, with many subspecies and forms. Both dragons were of the most common Dragon Species form. Their main bodies were similar to that of reptilian class creatures, enormously thick, with four limbs and sharp claws sprouting from the belly, and a pair of wide wings longer than their bodies, granting them superior flying capabilities. Both their necks and tails were long, and their heads were fierce, capable of exhaling terrifying breaths. At the moment, each dragon was lying in a dugout underground cave, seemingly asleep. Ji Xinghuo dared not let his attention linger on the dragons, lest he disturb them. Dragons possess many incredible abilities. Though they were two thousand meters away and he sensed them through their magnetic fields, Ji Xinghuo was not sure the dragons wouldn’t notice his probing. He also couldn’t sense those two Sixth Rank powerhouses too much. "This is tricky..." Ji Xinghuo did not continue walking towards that structure but sat down on a bench in the roadside garden. The view here was excellent, offering a view over most of Yunxiao City and the clouds above at sunset. But he had no interest in enjoying the scenery at this time. The two Heavenly Kings and two dragons, he confirmed their identities—Dragon Tamers from the True Dragon Dynasty, and this professional template bore another name, "Dragon Lord." The True Dragon Dynasty’s territory is vast and unbounded, ruling over a quadrillion population, and is one of the strongest nations in the Star Realm. Earthlings don’t know much about the True Dragon Dynasty. But just knowing that it possessed at least two hundred subordinate realms like the Sky Feather Royal Court, one can glimpse the great power of the True Dragon Dynasty. The territory of the True Dragon Dynasty is not limited to the Star Realm; their influence invades backwards into the Milky Way, across the entire Orion Arm and the neighboring section of the Perseus Arm, spanning thousands of light-years, and it is said that at least ten thousand planets capable of harboring life and opening Star Gates are under their rule. Compared to the True Dragon Dynasty, Earth is like a firefly to the bright moon! The ruling class of the True Dragon Dynasty is the "True Dragon people," a sparsely populated sub-race of humans. They have mastered the methods of taming dragons. Talented individuals adopt their own dragons from a young age, growing together until they become qualified Dragon Lords. Ultimately, relying on numerous powerful Dragon Lords, the True Dragon people built their imperial enterprise! If the artifact was on those two Sixth Rank Dragon Lords, Ji Xinghuo immediately gave up on that idea; he wouldn’t dare think about going after it until he himself had advanced to Heavenly King Level. But now... Ji Xinghuo carefully sensed again, confirming it wasn’t the worst case scenario. The object was a certain distance from the two Dragon Lords. It was moving within a small area. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. There was a humanoid magnetic field moving along with it, its strength several orders of magnitude weaker than the Sixth Rank Dragon Lords, but not to be underestimated. Because it was far away, he could not sense any Ether Energy fluctuations. However, judging from the strength of the magnetic field, this person appeared to be a Fourth Rank master, equivalent to a Super Mutant on Earth, and was a male. The artifact was on him, fashioned into a necklace worn around his neck. At that moment, he was practicing Martial Arts. He held a longsword with an exceptionally wide blade, in a Martial Arts Arena, continually fighting an opponent. His opponent was very strong, apparently a Legendary fighter, suppressing his own strength to spar with him, ending up disadvantaged every time and retreating just when he was about to lose. The two repeatedly combatted, the Legendary fighter repeatedly losing, but he maintained his dignity with his powerful strength. Ji Xinghuo secretly watched the fight for a moment. Gradually, he began to see some clues; the man wearing the necklace of the artifact obviously held a high status, pulling his subordinate Legendary fighter to spar and refine his Martial Arts skills. Disregarding the difference in ranks, the man’s strength far surpassed the Legendary fighter. The root lay in Martial Arts! The man’s Martial Arts prowess was extremely sophisticated, even incredulously so; he always managed to spot the opponent’s weaknesses and make the correct choices. Though they seemed equally matched at the outset, the victor was quickly decided. Sometimes, a single move would determine the superior fighter. His perception was extremely powerful, seemingly capable of grasping all movements around him, delving into deep layers of information, sensing subtle energy changes, discerning minutely, analyzing thoroughly, then finding a solution and striking effectively to win! "Such an ability..." If it were someone else, it would be easy to misunderstand this as a peerless innate talent in Martial Arts. However, Ji Xinghuo immediately recognized that this had nothing to do with Martial Arts talent or any Ability, but rather it was the power of the Wanxiang Star Pupil! "It’s somewhat like Myriad Phenomena, but not exactly," "It must be a weakened version of Myriad Phenomena. The consumption of star power is minimal, otherwise he couldn’t have sustained it for so long." Ji Xinghuo appeared contemplative. Now, he could confirm that the peculiar item was indeed part of the Wanxiang Star Pupil, likely one of its fragments. The man had the fragment on him, borrowing part of the Wanxiang Star Pupil’s abilities. "If I were to confront him..." Ji Xinghuo began to strategize internally. With the activation of Myriad Phenomena, he was definitely stronger than his opponent, but Myriad Phenomena consumed too much star power. As his own strength increased, Myriad Phenomena could see more of the future, its function grew stronger, but the consumption of star power also surged dramatically. Up to now, 471 points of star power could only activate Myriad Phenomena for about ten seconds. If he couldn’t kill his opponent in those ten seconds and his star power was exhausted, then he would be the one in danger of being killed. That was a possibility. After all, the opponent’s comprehensive and detailed perception ability could last for a long time. Ji Xinghuo watched him practice martial arts for five to six hours without a break, maintaining a high-level combat state throughout. Although the opponent’s ability was a pirated version, with the support of strong star power, even the authentic Myriad Phenomena might not guarantee a quick victory. And that wasn’t even the key issue. The real question was, how could he create an opportunity to confront him? As expected, the man held a high position, served by many from the True Dragon Family, he must also be a Dragon Lord. That building housed exactly five dragons! All of them were Catastrophe level creatures; the strongest one was possibly ’Meteor’ level, slightly weaker ones were ’Earthquake’ level, the next two were ’Bright’ level, and the weakest was ’Flood’ level. Meteor and Earthquake levels could roughly be compared to Sixth Rank or Heavenly King. Bright and Flood levels were legendary. Although the strengths of these five dragons varied, even the weakest dragon was several times more powerful than a creature of the same level. A Flood level True Dragon alone could match three or four Flood level creatures! Ji Xinghuo didn’t know which dragon belonged to the man, but regardless, none were something he could overcome. However, he had no intention of giving up. Ji Xinghuo rose from his bench and walked towards the building where the man was, soon spotting a vast complex of solid, heavy buildings with sharp lines, imbued with a sense of power and ancient heritage, like a grand war fortress. From a distance, he could see the grand entrance marked with the words in Dragon Language: True Dragon Dynasty Embassy. "Indeed, it’s the envoy from the True Dragon Dynasty," Ji Xinghuo sighed quietly. This street was largely occupied by the Dynasty Embassy, surrounded by other national and extraterrestrial civilizational embassies, all which kept their distance from the Dynasty’s territory. He wandered around like a tourist at the meet-and-greet peak, and even spotted the Earth’s embassy. Though Earth was divided and not unified, various nations had still established an embassy in the Sky Feather Royal Court led by the ADC. But it was merely symbolic and of little use. Apart from foreign embassies, the meet-and-greet peak also hosted many Winged People residences and shops, making it quite bustling. Ji Xinghuo moved into a luxury hotel more than a thousand meters from the True Dragon Dynasty Embassy. The Winged People servers, hearing him speak Dragon Language and noting his True Dragon Dynasty-style dress, dared not inquire deeply about his identity and swiftly completed his check-in. He specifically chose a room facing the Dynasty Embassy. Though his view was obstructed by a vast stretch of trees and flowers, preventing him from seeing directly into the embassy, the Wanxiang Star Pupil allowed him to observe and gather more information. Many people resided in the True Dragon Dynasty Embassy, housing upwards of a thousand individuals. Almost none were below Third Rank. Most were embassy staff or members of the birthday celebration envoy, serving around the five Dragon Lords and their dragons. The two Heavenly King level Dragon Lords; one seemed to be a permanent resident at the embassy, involved in administrative duties; the other, stronger Dragon Lord led the birthday envoy and held an evidently higher position among the True Dragon people, constantly meditating in his own room without much movement. Then there was the man with the necklace; his position was just below the two Heavenly King level Dragon Lords. The two legendary Dragon Lords treated him with great respect. "Who could he be among the True Dragon people?" Ji Xinghuo wondered, "Most likely a direct member of the True Dragon Family." He continued his discreet observation for a long time. Around dusk, the man finally stopped practicing martial arts, washed up, changed his clothes, and went to the cave beneath the embassy, approaching one of the dragons. "So, this is the one." Ji Xinghuo suddenly realized, recognizing the weakest of the five dragons, whose body measured less than twenty meters in length. The man jumped onto the dragon’s back and seated himself in the saddle as the dragon stood up, slowly exited the cave, and with a thrust of its enormous wings, soared into the sky. From Ji Xinghuo’s room, he could clearly see a dragon covered in yellow-brown scales ascended into the sky, stirring up fierce winds. It was fast, but didn’t fly far. It soon landed on another mountain peak in Yunxiao City, until it was out of sight. Ji Xinghuo withdrew his gaze, his expression complex, and whispered softly, "Linyan Dragon!" He had guessed the man’s family.
