Chapter 647, Life Dragon King – Root of Everything

Translator: Silavin

“The Jade Dragon King has a Skill called Dragon Domain, which can pull itself and enemies into it. You should know about this, shouldn’t you?”

“Within the Dragon Domain, it’s an absolutely sealed space where no Skills or items can be used to aid in one’s escape, not even you and your Pet Dragon.”

“Meanwhile, us Starry Sky Dragon has a Skill called Starry Space Passage that allows us Starry Sky Dragon to traverse through or into any Secret Realms, Dungeon Instances, Arrays, and so forth. By entering the Dragon Domain and then using Starry Space Passage to escape the confines set by the Skill and reach the true Dragon Domain, I can find a way to extend my life.”

The Starry Sky Ancestor’s words made Lu Fan furrow his brow.

He questioned. “Actually, I’ve already tried what you are suggesting before. But the Dragon Domain seems to be of a higher priority in terms of its Mechanics. Starry Space Passage cannot penetrate through the barrier created by the Dragon Domain, let alone reach the true Dragon Domain through the Skill.”

“No, no, no.” The Starry Sky Ancestor shook his head repeatedly. “If it’s a Starry Sky Dragon below the Eternal Phase, naturally they cannot pass through the Dragon Domain’s barrier.”

“If the Starry Sky Dragon reaches the Eternal Phase and Levels Up the Starry Space Passage to Max Level, then it will be able to overcome any restriction; not even Dragon Domain could stop it! Relying on my Max Level Starry Space Passage, I’ve roamed the Ancient Starry Sky Path for tens of thousands of years, experiencing countless ruins and terrifying Starry Sky Monsters. But none of them could trap me. So long as I wish for it, the vast starry sky is mine to freely roam!”

Lu Fan nodded, understanding the meaning behind the Starry Sky Ancestor’s words. “So, you want me to take you to the Dragon Domain, then you’ll use Starry Space Passage to reach the real Dragon Domain and seek out a method to continue living?”

“Not quite!” The Starry Sky Dragon shook his head. “To use Starry Space Passage, one needs to transform into their Starlight Form. With my limited remaining lifespan, I no longer have the ability to transform into my Starlight Form.”

“My plan is for you to use the Jade Dragon King and the Starry Sky Dragon King together to reach the Dragon Domain and help me find a certain Dragon King. Once you find this Dragon King, I’ll be able to live.”

“Which Dragon King?” Lu Fan asked.

A nostalgic expression appeared on the Starry Sky Ancestor’s face as he said. “The Life Dragon King – Root of Everything.”

“The Life Dragon King!?” Lu Fan’s heart trembled violently upon hearing this!

After all, he still had a Flying Dragon Divine Tree Seed stained with the Devouring Dragon King’s blood!

This Seed was a key Mission Item for completing a Night Terror Difficulty Mission. Although he had obtained it, he did not know where to find the Life Dragon King to complete the Mission.

[To unexpectedly obtain information about the Life Dragon King’s location. What a pleasant surprise!]

The Starry Sky Ancestor did not notice Lu Fan’s unusual reaction and continued speaking: “Yes, the Life Dragon King. Strictly speaking, she’s actually my Mother. I was not born in a normal Dragon Nest but was nurtured by the Life Dragon King.”

Lu Fan was puzzled. “How can the Life Dragon King give birth to a Starry Sky Dragon?”

Before the Starry Sky Ancestor could answer, the Devouring Dragon King snorted coldly with disdain. “It’s nothing remarkable. The Life Dragon King is just such a special existence. The Life Dragon King herself has no Combat Power to speak of. She’s like a tree, with Life Essence that never ceases. The seeds she bears are all filled with tremendous Vitality and might even become Dragon Eggs, nurturing different Dragon Species. These Dragon Species are no different from ordinary Dragons, except they have no parents. They are called ‘Rootless Dragons’.”

“But ultimately, Rootless Dragons are no different from ordinary Dragons. As long as they don’t acknowledge it themselves, there’s no way to distinguish them from ordinary Dragons. So, although the Life Dragon King has no Combat Power, she’s one of the beings in the Dragon Domain that absolutely cannot be provoked. After all, she is the Mother that can summon countless Dragons to obey her command.”

Lu Fan was greatly shocked. “She creates and nurtures different Dragon Species herself? And these Dragons will fight for her!? Wouldn’t that make her the strongest Giant Dragon?”

The Devouring Dragon King thought for a moment before saying. “I guess you could say that. But Giant Dragons are diverse in species. To say she’s the strongest isn’t quite accurate. After all, there are some Dragons with truly Heaven Defying Racial Traits that can single-handedly overwhelm other Dragons even when fighting alone.”

“For example.” The Devouring Dragon King puffed out her chest. “Us Devouring Dragon Kings. If we truly devoured all the different Dragon Species and combined all their Racial Traits, we Devouring Dragon Kings could potentially evolve to become the King of All Dragons! At that time, even the Life Dragon King wouldn’t be our match!”

Lu Fan looked at her without responding.

Perhaps what she said was true, but devouring all Dragon Species and combining all their Racial Traits was not something easy to accomplish. Who knew how many types of Giant Dragons existed in the world?

Moreover, each type of Giant Dragon had different characteristics, or their populations were sparse. For the Devouring Dragon King to evolve into the so-called ‘King of All Dragons’, how many eons would it take? It would most likely be extremely difficult to pull off.

At this time, the Starry Sky Ancestor spoke. “In any case, if you can find the Life Dragon King and help me obtain one of the Life Fruits growing on her body, I’ll be able to live a second life.”

“Mother is kind-hearted. If she learns that I want to continue living, she definitely won’t stand by and watch me die. Oh, also, take this. Consider it my token. When I was small, I constantly stayed by Mother’s side. She’ll remember me.”

With that, the Starry Sky Ancestor closed both eyes. A star beside him flew out, its light gradually dimming until it finally became a smooth stone, crystal clear and transparent like a brilliant gem.

Lu Fan took it and looked, discovering with amazement that this was actually a material called Star Stone, an Epic Grade material.

[Truly a Dragon. To casually produce an Epic Grade material, just like this. If this stone were used to craft equipment, it could probably be used to forge an Epic Grade equipment.]

Lu Fan held the Star Stone and looked at the Starry Sky Ancestor’s expectant face, smiling apologetically. “Although your plan is good, my Starry Sky Dragon King is only Level 70, still very far from becoming an Eternal Phase Dragon, let alone Levelling Up her Starry Space Passage Skill to Max Level. If you want me to go to the real Dragon Domain, you might have to wait for who knows how many years…”

Silavin: Okay, do note that Adult Giant Dragon and Adult Phase are different. Adult Giant Dragons could be in the Adult, Perfecting, Ultimate and Eternal Phases.
