Dragon Tamer

Chapter 628: Chapter 630: Sparrow Wolf Divine City

…

Before departing, Zhu Minglang went to visit the leader of the Saint Que.

He was still wrapped in gauze, and although there were signs of improvement, full recovery would take a long time.

“I will try my best to inquire about any Spiritual Medicine while on my way to Tianshu,” Zhu Minglang said to Saint Que Emperor Hong Geng.

“I appreciate it. If I can fully recover, it’s not just about fighting for you in the Tian Shu God Domain. I can ensure the safety of this land of Li Chuan,” Emperor Hong Geng said confidently.

Zhu Minglang naturally believed that Emperor Hong Geng had the strength to do so.

Being able to save so many people in a vanishing continent, Emperor Hong Geng must be close to the Divine Realm.

Having such a person under his command was naturally a good thing. After all, what Zhu Minglang was most concerned about were his wives, and he had many acquaintances on the land of Li Chuan. Zhu Minglang did not want them to perish like mayflies under the cruel laws of this world.

“My Lord, please allow me to follow you,” Pang Kai with his ashen face said at this moment.

Initially, Zhu Minglang thought this man had been beaten up by the Yama Dragon, which left him looking dirtied and scarred. Little did he know, even after washing, the man did not look much better, probably due to having been scorched by meteoric fire.

Zhu Minglang looked at Pang Kai.

He estimated his Cultivation Base to be at the Peak King Level.

Having such a mighty person by his side meant he would miss out on many opportunities for practice, as each of his dragons needed to break through their own limits through combat.

But after careful consideration, Zhu Minglang realized that with strong individuals like clouds in Tian Shu God Domain and gods being real, not having a reliable person by his side could indeed make it difficult to advance even an inch.

“That’s fine, but the purpose of my journey is mainly for practice and cultivation. Before I ask for your help, you just need to ensure Miss Mi Rong’s safety,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Your subordinate will heed all your commands,” Pang Kai, a man with a strong sense of ritual, always spoke decisively and bowed before responding to Zhu Minglang.

It had been a long time since Zhu Minglang had seen such a simple and genuine master. Those two revered elders in the Zhu Clan Inner Court seemed to look down on everyone as if they were displeasing grandsons with their proud and profound eyes.

Those two revered elders, both old in years, likely had lesser strength than Pang Kai.

…

Taking Mi Rong and Pang Kai along, Zhu Minglang’s departure this time was rather simple and straightforward.

As he left Absolute Ridge Chengbang, Zhu Minglang suddenly became curious and asked Pang Kai beside him, “Between you and Emperor Hong Geng, who is the stronger one?”

“My Lord, please don’t mock me,” Pang Kai showed a hint of embarrassment and after a while, he said, “Even though our Cultivation Bases are not much different, the Emperor can defeat ten of me.”

Both are at the Peak King Level, yet the difference is so immense??

It’s also unknown whether Hong Geng at his prime is a match for the Supreme Court King Zhao Yuan.

Supreme Court King Zhao Yuan, unquestionably the strongest person in the Supreme Court, is a Dragon Shepherd. It is said that he has more than one King-Level Dragon at the Peak.

“Yes, the Emperor has touched the edge of the Divine Realm, while I likely will never see any improvement for the rest of my life. The higher the Cultivation Base, the clearer one sees their limits. The higher realm is like the heavens—visible but untouchable. And this mortal flesh, even at its pinnacle, will never see a glimmer of hope for further transformation,” Pang Kai said with a gentle sigh.

For a very long time, Pang Kai had pursued the ultimate in cultivation. He didn’t believe in fate or the laws of Heaven and Earth. He gained conviction through breakthroughs, firmly believing that one day he would be able to ascend to heaven.

As a result, he neglected his family, lost friends, and missed many things.

But upon reaching the Peak King Level, it was as if stepping from an endless land into the very edge of the world. Ahead was darkness more vast than all the paths he had taken before, without a single trace to follow.

To take a blind step forward was to court irreversible doom.

Having reached this end of Cultivation Base, Pang Kai was lost for many years, and eventually, he had to completely overturn his past convictions.

The harsh reality told him that he was just a very powerful mortal, whether Pang Kai accepted it or not.

“Is there really no trace to be found after reaching the King-Level Peak?” Zhu Minglang listened very seriously to Pang Kai’s elucidation.

Pang Kai was a pioneer on the path of cultivation, and his experience was valuable to Zhu Minglang.

“Yes, the treasures of heaven and earth are of no use to you. No matter how you break through your realm, it only allows you to kill one more opponent of the same Cultivation Base. But to make a leap in quality like from Lord Level to Monarch Level, or Monarch Level to King Level, it’s simply impossible. Perhaps from the moment we began to cultivate, we were already on the wrong path,” Pang Kai said.

This last statement from Pang Kai made Zhu Minglang fall into deep thought.

“`

The path of cultivation was wrong from the very beginning?

A person who has reached the Peak of King Level concluding this is definitely not an unfounded claim.

There must be some crucial cultivation base cracks that exist between the King Level realm and the Divine Realm.

“However, young master, you should be somewhat different from us common folk,” Pang Kai said, revealing a bitter smile on his face.

“Do I have light on me?” Zhu Minglang asked, puzzled.

“I can’t quite put it into words, but I’ve heard some of the older generations mention those destined by the heavens, the Divine Chosen, those who defy the natural order… You must be one of them,” Pang Kai said.

“Brother Zhu is indeed a Divine Chosen, one who has received the blessings of a True God…” At this point, Mi Rong spoke with a smile on her face, clearly proud and pleased.

“I see. If you truly become a god in the future, please solve this doubt that plagues my heart. It’s not that I still hope to advance further, but if I could dispel this obsession in my heart, I wouldn’t be troubled by this bitterness and unwillingness even when lying in my coffin,” Pang Kai nodded.

“There’s no need to be so disheartened. There may come a day of breakthrough. In this Tian shu God Domain, there are too many things we have not seen. Perhaps what you see and think along the way could answer the doubts in your heart,” Zhu Minglang said.

Pang Kai just smiled naively, as if he had resigned himself to the fact that he had no connection with the Divine Realm.

He now only wanted to make up for not having taken good care of his family in the past. Although accepting the fact that he was a mortal was difficult and painful, the affection for family at the bottom of a mortal’s heart could not be severed. Furthermore, if one couldn’t even protect their own family, how could they talk about becoming a god.

…

All forces in the Tian shu God Domain cast covetous eyes on the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent.

With a little over a month for the Nothingness Fog to dissipate, countless people and horses had already appeared in this vast domain.

There were the massive God Clan Armies camped outside the Nothingness Fog, the organizations from the Divine City that served the gods, and countless cultivators from the God Territory.

Although the Divine Region is vast, the God Roots and Immortal Veins are essentially occupied by those Lower God Organizations. Ordinary people wanting to obtain a large number of resources can only do so from this new Star Continent. It can be said that essentially all of God’s people in the Tian shu God Domain are prepared to divide the Supreme Court, and there will be plenty of fragments in the process of division for the loose forces to fill their bellies!

“What is the nearest Divine City here?” Zhu Minglang asked Mi Rong.

“It’s the Sparrow Wolf Divine City,” Mi Rong briefly explained the distribution of the domain to Zhu Minglang.

First and foremost, the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent fell in a rather sensitive territory, known as the Four Desolate Regions, an area without the rule of a True God. The Divine City closest to this Four Desolate Regions is the Sparrow Wolf Divine City, illuminated by the Sparrow Wolf God.

It relates to blessings, and clearly, the outside world has received very reliable news: not only are there blessings in the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent, but also the blessings of a True God.

In order to obtain these extremely limited blessings, the majority of the subjects of the gods, the descendants of the gods, all want to enter the Supreme Court as soon as possible.

“And your Xuange Divine Country, is it far from here?” Zhu Minglang inquired.

“At our current speed, it would still take half a month to get there,” said Mi Rong.

They too had received some news and had set off in advance.

Their main purpose was not the blessings but to collect Heavenly Essences.

“So, are most of the Lower God Organizations now gathered in the Sparrow Wolf Divine City?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Yes, they don’t need to eat in the wind and sleep in the dew; they should be watching from the Sparrow Wolf Divine City, either using various methods to find a way to enter the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent or waiting for the Nothingness Fog to completely dissipate before swarming in,” Mi Rong nodded.

“Then let’s go and take a look at the Sparrow Wolf Divine City, and meet these children of the gods in advance!” Zhu Minglang got excited.

“Brother Zhu, these people are insatiable and mostly intend to commit atrocities in the Supreme Court. When the time comes, Brother Zhu, you definitely do not need to be polite to them!” Mi Rong also clenched her little fists, looking like she was fully prepared to confront them head-on.

“At first, I thought that the Divine Region was full of powerful beings, and everyone had unlocked their destiny or something. Now I realize that aside from those thirty-three True Gods, other so-called god descendants and god’s people… their maximum cultivation base is Peak King Level,” said Pang Kai.

It’s nothing more than having the protection of a divine being, so they act superior.

Perhaps the average cultivation base in the entire Tian Shu Divine Region is indeed much higher than that of the Holy Quel Continent, and among the wandering individuals, one can see Peak King Level beings. But in terms of personal strength, he, Pang Kai, still counts as one of the top in this Tian Shu Divine Region!

…

Flying toward the Sparrow Wolf Divine City, the Tian shu Divine Region was so vast it was hard to imagine. Even traveling at the speed of an Azure Phoenix, a Middle-level Dragon King, took several days to leave this so-called Four Desolate Regions.

After flying for five days, Zhu Minglang and the others finally arrived at the Sparrow Wolf Divine City. This was under the condition that Pang Kai, a Peak powerhouse, was deterring the powerful demons in the Evil Forest and Evil Mountain; otherwise, Zhu Minglang would have had to bypass many areas.

The Sparrow Wolf Divine City was situated on an arc-shaped Tianshan, like an enormous arch, standing abruptly on the horizon like the grand gateway of the Heavenly Court, with even the mountain body presenting a cyan-green hue!
