Chapter 526: Return of a comrade

Shadowslash just shook his head as he knew what old man emerald was thinking unlike those of his age he was flamboyant and acts like a teenager most of the time.

But it was clearly this personality that made the two of them friends.

Shadowslash: "Hey old man what about taming different kind of beasts of different dragon bloodline with this act your presence would truly shine during the meeting".

Hearing this old emerald's eyes lit up before dripping again as he sighed and said "There is already a person like that, his name is Thousand Dragon King he tamed more than a hundred dragon type beasts".

Shadowslash raised his eyebrow as he was confused he then said "Thousand Dragon King isn't that title too boastful since he only managed to take a hundred not a thousand besides isn't the ruler of your clan piss off that someone is claiming to be a dragon king?".

Old man emerald shook his head as he said "The ruler of our clan would be known as dragon emperor while those underneath him which had powerful strength was known as dragon kings as of now there are only 5 dragon kings".

"Thousand Dragon King, Titan Dragon King, Fire Demon Dragon King, Benevolent Dragon King and finally the Wise Dragon King".

Shadowslash then asks "What about you I know that you have the potential to obtain the title of a dragon king you also have strength to obtain it why didn't you strive towards this goal".

Old man emerald became quiet he then sips his tea after a couple minutes of silence he sighed as he spoke with bitterness flashing in his eyes.

"You are right I was once crowned as one of the youngest prodigy in my clan but because of that slut I was reduced into this state where I was traveling throughout the continent passing my days idly".

After a couple of seconds of silence old man emerald continue "To become a dragon king one must obtain and train a willpower rune and that person should be able to turn that will into a law so that their power would exponentially increased".

"The Thousand Dragon King obtain the willpower of the ruler after countless years of watching an ant or insect colony that is why most of the dragons he trains were insects that have dragon bloodline".

"He could use his power and transforms his Qi into king energy that has dragon Qi on it as his subjects increased in number so does his strength".

"But his strength is actually the weakest amongst all the dragon kings as he relies on his pets to fight, his attacking power is not that much and most of his pets were just early Xiantian beasts".

"The Titan Dragon King on the other hand is one of the most feared individual in the continent his willpower rune is strength and his law is the absolute strength rule".

"His attacks were simple but at the same time scary each of his attack enclosed the space around his target causing him to have no chance to run away".

"Unless you control a law any defence would render useless against his attack not to mention his ancestor were one of the ancient giant dragons the Titan Dragons increasing his physical strength to a horrifying degree".

"The Fire Demon Dragon King on the other hand is known as the lunatic of the dragon clan his willpower rune is destruction his destructive is even stronger than Titan Dragon King his law would cause everything to turn into ashes".

"The Benevolent Dragon King and the Wise Dragon King are unknown and mysterious individuals of the dragon clan rumor says it that all the dragon kings are quite docile towards them and even the dragon emperor sometimes need to listen to what they say".

"It is also known that they might be the oldest dragons in the dragon clan they have been protecting the dragon clan throughout this entire time".

Shadowslash nodded while he was also deep in thought he wasn't knowledgeable in the term 'willpower rune' but since those that transcends Xiantian Realm all wanted to obtain that it meant that it was quite precious.

He sighed as he was too ignorant in this world and yet he was already in the state of building his very own empire it is quite funny actually.

He then realised that the beast clan of the Beast Continent is really powerful that meant that the other forces on the other continent were also scary.

Gripping his fist tightly he realised he was improving too slow he needs to increase his leveling speed and the only method to do that is to obtain treasures to compliment his technique.

Thinking about this he couldn't help but think 'It seems that my next destination is the inner part of this continent'.

Since he had already recovered he decided to scour the land for any potential guardian beasts for his territory.

Suddenly while he was busy chatting with old man emerald he suddenly stood up as he looks towards the direction of his secret base.

He then said "Old man I have somewhere I have to go".

He then flew towards the direction of his main base the cave that a group of pirate beastman occupied before.

He had received a message from Anna telling him that Kurious and Samantha have returned but they were heavily injured.

He transformed into his dragon form while also activating his new technique called Flowing Cloud Step he increased his speed.

Since his leveling speed isn't like before he used his free time practicing techniques he found impressive or practical.

Besides that he had also fused with his sword in all of his form he could now use his sword technique together with his skill.

As his figure zips through the sky the people in the ground looks up to him with admiration.

Most of them were saved by Shadowslash so they are very grateful to him and because of his rules and the strength of his group they finally settled down peacefully near or on his territory.

The territory of Shadowslash and around it were functioning quite well the people were happy and those that have thought of doing any trouble would need to answer to the knights that was patrolling.

Besides there were many high ranking Adventurers that were bounded by the contract they have sign controlling the area that they were given to monitor.

Their jobs is quite simple it is to control the situation if any chaos arise other than that they could do whatever they want as long as it is considered not breaking any rule stated in the contract.

The Adventurers have now started to create their own group and this task is quite a boon to them as they will be able to obtain reputation and talents.

Back in the present with Shadowslash flying in full force coupled with Flowing Cloud Step he managed to arrive at his destination in just a couple of minutes.

Just as he arrives at the secret entrance of the cave numerous juvenile wolves pops out and started growling at him.

Suddenly they sniffed his scent and started to become docile as they approached and started rubbing their heads on his legs.

Shadowslash smiled as he rubs the head of each juvenile wolves and giving them large amount of Inner Core Rank meats.

The entrance is longer a simple hole that he created but it was now two stone doors that looks exactly like the rocks in the surrounding if he wasn't the one who had ordered to build this he would need to use his spiritual sense to find this entrance.

Entering the entrance he arrived at a pathway that has numerous torches on the side Shadowslash knew that this torches actually induce hallucination.

He easily passed through without being influenced by the torches.

Other than torches there were flowers that increase the power of hallucination it looks extremely pretty underneath the torches as they lit up the entire passageway.

Arriving at the end of the passageway a huge metal door presented itself.

Shadowslash just casually put his hand in one of the two dragon statue standing near the huge iron door.

With a click the door started moving as he saw that all of those that stayed in the cave were now kneeling as of greeting his presence.

Shadowslash was already used to this as every time his clone come here they would greet it the same way.

"Bring me to where Kurious and the others are" Anna immediately stood up as she led Shadowslash to the garden inside the cave.

The plants have been growing pretty well inside the garden the female wolf was still there but it no longer held hostility towards Shadowslash or any individual in the garden.

There were countless orbs full of yang Qi dangling in the room the plants obtain their energy from them.

The plants have started to mutate slowly because of their unique circumstances and the gardeners were taking care of them professionally and in the most caring manner they could.
