Chapter 1270: Chapter 1274: No Fight, No Acquaintance
“Isn’t that a rather spectacular Immortal Beast Dragon??”
“As long as I can remember, it has been here. It used to be very tame, and I often fed it colorful soil, oh, it likes eating soil, but it seems that it really eats everything. However, why is it so irritable today?” Nie Qiqi said.
“This dragon has the potential to ascend to become a Moon God Dragon. The unique Dragon Garden of your Nie Mountain Immortal Clan is indeed well-deserved in its reputation. Such Immortal Beast Dragons that people outside fight over are just raised freely here, without even making a contract?” Dong Yi said.
“Make a contract?? Except for my mother, the heroes of our Nie clan have all tried, but in the end, none could tame it.” Nie Qiqi shook her head.
“It’s really fierce, let’s go see something else,” said the girl in rose-red clothes.
“Yes, yes, let’s go, it probably doesn’t like crowds.”
…
Nie Qiqi continued to guide the others around, and the unique Dragon Garden truly broadened their horizons. Moreover, aside from Nie Qiqi, all the others were Dragon Shepherds, and seeing that the garden was filled with Young Dragons, it made each of these young men and women eager to try taming one or two to make their mark in the world.
Zhu Minglang didn’t hurry to leave, deliberately lagging a few steps behind.
Only when the others had walked a bit farther did Zhu Minglang slowly approach the ruins of the confinement platform, his gaze fixed on the Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon…
Familiar!
This guy, familiar!
“Was it I who killed you?” Zhu Minglang tentatively asked.
“Roar Roar!!!” The Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon furiously dug at the soil with its tiny paws, as if wanting to dig a hole to bite Zhu Minglang to death.
“Sorry, I’m a bit amnesiac, give me a hint, or let me think again…” Zhu Minglang asked again.
A barren land, rivers drunk, mountains eaten, myriad spirits swallowed!
In the vast world, it seemed there was only one boundless Gluttonous Dragon, which had nearly devoured half of the Divine Chosen that had descended to this layer of heaven, truly unmatched in this world. Yet, the only thing it could not bite through was Zhu Minglang!
Because Zhu Minglang had also slain the other half of the Divine Chosen, gathering their Spirit Roots onto himself!
The Gluttonous Dragon had devoured half, Zhu Minglang chopped the other half, one man and one dragon becoming the only Divine Chosen left in this barren Layer of Heaven!
In the end, Zhu Minglang chopped it down and climbed to the next Layer of Heaven…
Was this the affair of the Fourth or Fifth Layer of Heaven??
Was this his third time ascending the Dragon Gate, or the thirtieth experience??
Alas, he couldn’t remember.
The passage of years within the Dragon Gate is unstable.
This means that a month inside might translate to a year outside.
Or, a hundred years inside might just be a month outside.
Zhu Minglang probably understood why he had amnesia.
If he had ascended the Dragon Gate no less than a hundred times, then not only had he spent a century within the white cocoon, but his experiences in the Dragon Gate were even longer, so lengthy that his mind could not contain them all, and in order not to destroy his own personality and mental health, he must have instinctively chosen to discard the memories from within the Dragon Gate, retaining only the memories from before entering the Dragon Gate in North Dipper God State…
Otherwise, he might not be able to distinguish whether Dragon Gate or the outside world is the real one.
“I never thought you would end up like this… How does it feel to be locked up here for people to gawk at?” Zhu Minglang recalled the general experience and couldn’t help but smile.
“Roar!!!!” The Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon became even more irritable.
Come in, come in, I won’t bite you to death!!
“But I’m not much better than you, look at me, apart from being younger and more handsome, I’ve lost all my cultivation base, and I have to start all over again, we’re all losers.” Zhu Minglang said.
“Zhu Minglang… why don’t you catch up, there are many more powerful dragons behind!” Nie Qiqi’s voice came from ahead.
“Coming, coming.” Zhu Minglang responded.
“Roar!!” The Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon continued to roar loudly.
“No more fighting, no more fighting, we’ve all ended up in this situation, what’s the point of fighting to the death?” Zhu Minglang said.
The Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon scrutinized Zhu Minglang closely and found that Zhu Minglang’s cultivation was indeed not high, and it seemed to find a bit of consolation in that.
“Let’s go, I’ll come to see you again when I get the chance. Nie Qiqi said you like eating soil, that’s easy, I’ll bring more mud to feed you next time, let’s bury the hatchet with a smile.” Zhu Minglang said to the Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon.
…
Whether a smile can bury the hatchet, Zhu Minglang didn’t know, but many years had passed, and he guessed the Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon itself might not remember very clearly either.
Although the memories were blurry, Zhu Minglang remembered the feeling of matching wits and courage with the Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon.
From nearly crushing all inner defenses with a strong sense of oppression and fear, to constantly maneuvering around it, then finding the only way to counter it, to fighting till mountains and seas dried up, the sky shattered and the earth split, ultimately becoming the only survivor on the Fourth Layer of Heaven… It was a merciless Divine Chosen duel!
As Nie Qiqi led the way, those vague memories in Zhu Minglang’s mind occasionally lit up, sometimes exploding like daylight in the darkness of night, and sometimes dimming amidst brilliance and splendor…
It was all chaotic, Zhu Minglang shook his head, not allowing himself to recall the details any further.
Let the past be past.
Just walk the road ahead well, find those lost dragons, and see those people he cared about…
“QiQi, the Celestial Master wants you to take your friends back to the Court Pavilion.” A female servant came up, first paying her respects, before speaking to Nie Qiqi.
“Mm, mm!” Nie Qiqi nodded.
Everyone felt a bit reluctant to leave, as the young dragons here were indeed very rare, each with unique talents and special bloodlines. As Dragon Shepherds, they would rather live in this marvelous Dragon Garden, tame them one by one, and then lead these dragons to conquer the world!
However, upon hearing that Herioc Moon Xian generously gifted young dragons, these young members of the Immortal’s House excitedly shouted and hurried back to the Court Pavilion… Little did they know, having grown to this age as descendants of immortals, they couldn’t escape performing in front of their elders.
“We prepared some young dragons for you to tame…” Herioc Moon Xian looked at the returning young men and women, a gentle smile appearing on his face.
“After you successfully tame them, you can directly sign a contract. This is a great gift from Herioc Moon Xian to you juniors, now bow and express your thanks.” The White-haired Moonshine God said to the young ones.
Zhu Minglang stood on the high platform and saw that the Nie Hill Immortal Clan had brought a dozen young dragons here, securing them in the center of the Dragon Ring Stage below.
Guests from other places also arrived one after another, and sat down in the Court Pavilion seats surrounding the Dragon Ring Stage.
