The tides were no longer stable.
Early in the morning, a magnificent ancient mountain stood on a damp beach devoid of surging waves.
At night, the entire ancient mountain would be submerged by the sea, as if poised to sink into the ocean depths at any moment.
Within the ancient mountain, birds and beasts began to flee in all directions, even a highly rare Phoenix Dragon, an ancient dragon shimmering with Divine Radiant Aura, fled the ancient mountain.
The highest peak of the ancient mountain, piercing the sky like a sword, was now slowly turning into dust, starting from the summit to the mid-mountain, and then to the main massif of the ancient mountain…
The mysterious continent that appeared as ake reflected in the sky had finally fallen, its celestial turbulence crashing into the Sea of Nothingness, sending waves crashing against the dome of the sky.
Its collision with the surface of the earth sparked celestial mes that evaporated the waters of the Sea of Nothingness.
On thend of Li Chuan Continent’s Wesnd, a major earthquake urred, shaking ancient cities to the brink of copse.
The Sea of Nothingness, the edge of the earth, once hated by people as a cage that confined them to a limitednd.
But now, the people of Wesnd had to be thankful for the Sea of Nothingness; without it, the wave from the mysteriousnd’s collision would have wiped out all living beings in Wesnd!
A monthter, the waters of the Sea of Nothingness had beenpletely evaporated, and the mysterious continent had fully embedded itself into what used to be the sea level.
A massive rift between Wesnd and the mysterious continent now bordered the Lingxiao City-State, and the Dragon Shepherds there havee to call this connecting rift the West Cliff!
The West Cliff was just a small extension of the mysterious continent but had be the bridge between the twonds.
On both sides of the West Cliff, magma rolled in countless river-like pools, and it would take many years for these red fiery liquids to disappearpletely.
Moreover, the fog produced by the evaporation of the Sea of Nothingness enveloped the surroundings of West Cliff, preventing any life from passing through alive, only waiting for it to gradually dissipate.
Thus, West Cliff became the only “bridge” that both continents could use to connect, just like the former Dongxu Mountain Range and Valley of Glory.
However, it can be inferred that once the magma disappears and the fog clears, Wesnd’s horizon will bepletely integrated into that mysterious world!
God and Mortal beings and Dragon Shepherds had already gathered at West Cliff.
For the people of Li Chuan Continent, they were mysterious visitors from a different space, worth the curiosity whether they were three-headed six-armed God Demons or unusually shaped beasts.
Of course, the most important thing was that the mysterious continent had fallen from the Realm of the Gods; they might possess resources never seen on Li Chuan Continent, whether streets of gold or fields of heavenly spiritual roots…
Anything was possible!
In fact, the creatures of the mysterious continent harbored simr thoughts.
When the waters of West Cliff hadpletely evaporated and the two continents were passable, the people of Supreme Court Courtyard Continent were also watching, eager to set foot in this newly “merged”nd!
One man arrived, riding a majestic and divine Holy Lion Purple Dragon.
d in dazzling armor, he traversed the misty haze and approached the edge of West Cliff.
Leaping from West Cliff, the Holy Lion Purple Dragon didn’t even fear the high temperatures of the magma scorched earth, stepping on the fire liquid as sshes of magma turned into zing blooms in the air.
“So, there are humans after all,” the Holy Lion Purple Dragon rider said with a smile curling at his lips, his eyes sweeping over the gathered Dragon Shepherds and God and Mortal beings of Wesnd.
“Turns out there are Dragon Shepherds too,” the Purple Dragon rider continued.
As he spoke, a high-haired woman appeared behind him, donned in a simple yet elegant cultivator robe, her well-defined figure still noticeable beneath the loose garment.
Her face was cold, yet her bare visage gave off a sense of refinement.
But her demeanor was one of utter pride, in stark contrast to the Purple Dragon rider’s rxed and casual attitude. Upon seeing the people of the newnd, she regarded them with pure disdain and a contemptuous look!
“Do you have Sects here?” the high-haired cultivator woman asked indifferently.
“What’s a Sect?”
“Does Sect Pce count as a Sect?” replied a Dragon Shepherd from Lingxiao City-State.
Thenguage was the same, just like the Wutu that appeared from god knows where.
The people of Li Chuan Continent breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the mysterious continent was not full of fearsome beasts, and perhaps the West Cliff would soon see the rise of a great city-state.
“Is it a City-State where you’re from?” asked Lingzhuo, a Dragon Shepherd from Lingxiao City-State.
“City-State?” The Purple Dragon riderughed upon hearing this.
“What are you then…?”
“We are what you would call the Heavens!”
The Heavens!
That was utter contempt!
Ancestral Dragon City-State, Dragon Taming Academy.
Zhu Minng had spent the past month doing only two things, burning money and burning money.
The first burning of money was for feeding the Ice Morning White Dragon.
A Dragon Lord Level creature, its weekly food consumption could be calcted in baskets of gold.
If it weren’t for the thousands of kilometers around being his wife’s territory, Zhu Minng would have considered conquering cities to collect taxes! It was too expensive, Little White no longer just drank the costly high-quality honeydew as if it were water, but also needed to consume Star Fragment Crystals.
What are Star Fragment Crystals?
Can ordinary people afford to buy such a thing???
Meteors falling to the earth generate the highest temperature mes in this world, and some special rocks are tempered into crystals in this intense heat. These crystals are known as Star Fragment Crystals!
To raise a dragon, do I also need to observe the stars at night and chase after meteors??
Even with the Power of God and Mortality in the past, it would’ve been difficult to aplish. You can’t just wait day and night; after all, thend is vast and limitless. Who knows where a meteor willnd!
Thankfully, Li Yunzi was considerate. Upon learning that Bai Qi’s food was such a rare item, she had people collect it. Later, when the lords, families, and wealthy merchants from the four major city-states heard that the Female Monarch favored these Star Crystals, they all vied to present her with the items as a form of ttery…
In this way, it took a month just to scrape together enough for three months’ worth of provisions!
There was no other way, as Bai Qi’s Azure Dragon Mystics originated from the stars and the moon.
To practice these Mystics, it needed to eat Star Fragment Crystals…
It’s just that whenever I saw Little Bai Qi munching on Star Fragment Crystals as if they were pinecones—crystals that were hundreds of times more expensive than gold—my heart bled!
“There should be quite a few of those crystals around West Cliff, but we can’t go there at the moment, too many troubles happening there recently.”
“Eating for two full months should help Little Bai Qi’s strength stabilize at the
High-level Dragon Lord Status.”
If you use other things as a makeshift, not only might its strength stagnate at the Lower Dragon Master status, but also there’d be no hope for Little Bai Qi’s fourth stage.
If raised well, Bai Qi might only need half a year to enter the fourth stage.
The fourth stage is like a dam collecting water. Any gap in the dam prevents it from filling up.
Feeding ingredients.
Nourishment from the Spirit Realm.
Battle tempering.
Strengthening of soul bones.
Each of these is like a source of water flowing into a reservoir.
Feeding poor-quality ingredients is like an imperceptible trickle.
Providing high-quality Soul Beads is like a rushing river entering the reservoir.
If Bai Qi just drank nectar, it wouldn’t starve to death, but it would do virtually nothing for its growth.
So no matter how hard or exhausting it is, we must not let our Dragon Babies go poor.
Li Yunzi has helped me out in a pinch, but from now on, I have to rely on myself. Heaven knows when it reaches the Dragon Monarch Level, whether the Ice Morning White Dragon will need to eat crystals from the moon and sun.
Continuing to maintain the attitude of a learner, Zhu Minng went to ss, only to find that today’s ss, originally taught by a deputy dean, had been canceled at thest minute.
The deputy dean is highly respected, and is one of the rare Dragon Herding Sanctifiers in this Li Chuan Continent, so his ss opportunities are few. Therefore, whenever he does teach, students will give up their precious study points.
“Zhu Minng, someone wants you to go to Bamboo Forest Pavilion,” Hong Hao came running to tell him.
Zhu Minng was puzzled, but he went to the bamboo forest anyway.
Arriving at Bamboo Forest Pavilion, Zhu Minng climbed the steps, reminded of the scene of Nan Lingsha painting there that night.
Upon opening the door, he saw several people already seated inside, including the elderly Mr. Wu from Juvenile Spirit Hall and the woman who was the Guardian of the Treasure House. In addition, Deputy Dean Bai Hongbo, who had not gone to ss, was also present.
Looking further, Zhu Minng’s eyes lit up for a moment, but then he bitterly twisted his lips. Although he had known them for some time, he still couldn’t fully differentiate their appearances.
It was Nan Lingsha. Whenever she appeared serene and indifferent, Zhu Minng was always reminded of Li Yunzi sipping tea elegantly.
“Sit down,” Nan Lingsha said.
Zhu Minng found a seat and sat down, somewhat baffled. What was the purpose of gathering several deputy dean-level figures from the Li Chuan Dragon Taming Academy here?
And why was he included? By status, he was still just an exemry student at the Dragon Taming Academy!
“All present here from the academy with Lord Level status, since the dean is not here, I, Bai Hongbo, will preside,” Bai Hongbo nced at Zhu Minng. Although there were some questions, he didn’t dwell on it.
Mr. Wu also looked at Zhu Minng with a puzzled face.
How did this kid get here?
Is he Lord Level??
Zhu Minng nced at Nan Lingsha, knowing that his presence here was mostly due to her.
She knew that he had the Dragon Monarch Level Ice Morning White Dragon.
“The Sect Pce has been eradicated, the six major cities in the Wesnd of Lingxiao City-State have been massacred, and the Ling Family has abandoned the main city to flee into the Li Chuan in seeking aid from our Dragon Taming Academy,” Bai Hongbo began.
“What, the Sect Pce eradicated???” Mr. Wu stood up abruptly from his seat.
“Dean Bai, you can’t be joking with us,” the woman from the Treasure House said.
Bai Hongbo looked solemn and said earnestly, “I am not joking with any of you.”
“Both chiefs of the Sect Pce, the two elders, including the lord of the Sect Pce and other powerhouses, have died in battle. The Sect Pce, from top to bottom, with several hundred Dragon Trainers and nearly a hundred Divine and Mortal strong beings, some dead, some fled… The Sect Pce is no more, just yesterday.”
These words from Bai Hongbo made the few Lord-level powerhouses present feel a chill down their spine.
The Sect Pce—that was the Sect Pce! It held absolute authority over this part of the Li Chuan Continent, and it was extinguished overnight!
If someone had said this a month ago, they would’ve beenbeled a madman!
(I couldn’t sleepst night, so I clicked on the audioments and discovered that many youngdies have done voiceovers for the female characters in our book, with sweet and lovely voices, as if a TV series had been made.
Impressive,dies of Dragon Shepherd, hearing your voices lets me picture the foxy women, Frost, Li Yunzi, Nan Lingsha, Fang Niannian, and other female characters from the book. Everyone can also listen; it’s really good.. And that Sichuan-ent version of Zhu Minng, that’s enough from you!)
