Chapter 1804: Dragon Dominance Ring

Nihil Homeland was a minor world roughly the size of the old Dusk Province in Nephrite Major of the world of immortals, just eighty thousand kilometers across. While that might seem a significant size, one large enough to house countless beings, those with the right to visit the Land of Reincarnation were all unrivaled geniuses. Any of their residences or complexes was measured in terms of a world.

Thus, placing them in a world eighty thousand kilometers across made for cramped quarters.

Regardless, they were immensely grateful to Chu Xingran and highly respectful toward him. Not only was he the crown prince of Darklake, but he was also the foster son of the Azure Dragon King. Noble and lofty, his strength was even more unfathomable.

The arrival of another group changed the situation entirely.

The golden dragons of the dragon race.

Their crown prince, Ao Quan, was a heavyweight with the qualifications to exceed sequence. He’d reached thirty levels of sequence—that was the lowest bar upon which one could surpass sequence. Those who did so at thirty levels wouldn’t amount to much in the future, and they’d find it very difficult to forge their dao palaces.

Exceeding sequence didn’t automatically make one a supreme. Only those with dao palaces were supremes.

Ao Quan was an unequivocal genius whose fame was second to only Ao Qin and the others. But since he’d accessed thirty levels of sequence, he no longer counted as part of the younger generation. Indeed, he was stronger than the other four.

When he arrived, he immediately declared that the dragon race now controlled Nihil Homeland and that whoever wished to remain needed to swear fealty to the dragons.

Otherwise, they could piss off as far away as they could.

“Chu Xingran, this Nihil Homeland is a creation from my uncle, the Azure Dragon King, isn’t it? You’ve done well in overseeing this territory during this time. Now that I am here, I will take command.” Ao Quan bore a head of sparkling golden hair and wore golden armor. It seemed to be etched into his body like fine dragon scales, fully shaping a muscular body rippling with strength.

As politely as he spoke, his tone left no room for doubt. While the Azure Dragon King had adopted Chu Xingran as his foster son and opened the race’s treasury to him, the dragons didn’t think much of him. They didn’t view him as one of them—just a servant, at most.

Now that Ao Quan was here, his first task was to usurp command.

“Men, show Crown Prince Chu Xingran to his quarters so he can rest.” Ao Quan didn’t give him a chance to speak. Eighteen subordinates walked out and grabbed Chu Xingran by the shoulders, sealing his cultivation and hauling him away. “If the rest of you don’t wish to join the dragons, please leave. I will start killing people after a hundred breaths.”

Confusion and unrest ruffled Nihil Homeland. Join the dragons?

If they joined the Morans, they would become part of the clan. If they joined the dragons, they would only be treated as tools and discarded as soon as business was concluded in the Land of Reincarnation. More importantly, it was no secret that the golden and azure dragons did not get along. Chu Xingran represented the azure dragons, and Ao Quan was the son of the Golden Dragon King.

With Chu Xingran under house arrest and Ao Quan seizing control of Nihil Homeland, this had become a dragon race matter. The others had no desire to be involved in an internal dragon affair.

Many didn’t wish to offend the dragons, so departure from Nihil Homeland was preferable. They could make other plans after retreating to Mount Astronomia.

Moran Dongning and Xie Tianxun happened to arrive just as Ao Quan finished speaking.

“I wondered who was speaking like that, so it’s you!” Xie Tianxun burst out into laughter when he saw Ao Quan. “Who can you manage to kill here, hmm? Ao Quan, you really need to make your lies more believable.”

“Xie Tianxun! And you are… little princess Moran Dongning of the Moran Clan?” Ao Quan immediately recognized the newcomers, but his expression didn’t change much. Instead, he chuckled, “What, do you two wish to interfere with draconic affairs?”

“Interfere with draconic affairs?” Moran Dongning snorted. “Nihil Homeland doesn’t belong to the dragons. I made it myself.”

“It belongs to us now,” Ao Quan nodded. “The dragons will transact with the Morans for it. But you two will either get out of here or swear fealty to the dragons. By swearing fealty, you will put on one of our Dragon Dominance Rings.”

The ring was a treasure unique to the golden dragons; they could control whoever wore it. Wearers lost complete personal freedom and became slaves. Its method of manufacture was a golden dragon secret—not even the azure dragons knew how they refined it.

“We’re going!” Cultivators of Nihil Homeland didn’t dare stay longer once they heard the words “Dragon Dominance Ring”. Ao Quan’s blatant dismissal of Moran Dongning and Xie Tianxun could only mean one thing—a supreme from the golden dragons had arrived.

If they were any slower in leaving, they might be claimed by a ring and become a slave.

“Moran Dongning, I won’t do anything to you since you’re the little princess of the Moran Clan. But Xie Tianxun was very rude to me…” A glittering, golden collar the size of a palm appeared in Ao Quan’s hand. His lips stretched in a bloodthirsty smile. “Xie Tianxun, are you going to put it on yourself or do I have to beat you into submission first?”

Ao Quan was a genius too. Though his reputation was a bit weaker than Xie Tianxun’s, he’d never thought much of the latter. He’d accessed thirty levels of sequence and was preparing to exceed sequence and craft his own dao palace. Strictly speaking, the two were no longer on the same level.

Thirty levels were absolutely superior to Xie Tianxun and the others. Those who’d challenged Lu Qing at Mount Astronomia had been twenty-eight levels at most. There’d never been anyone higher.

Of course, Ao Quan didn’t know how strong Xie Tianxun was now. The latter could defeat experts over twenty levels when he was at nineteen—that was why he was hailed a genius. Now that he’d accessed twenty-eight levels, his strength had grown by so many times that he was wholly unafraid of the dragon.

“I’d love to see how a Dragon Dominance Ring would look like on a golden dragon!” Xie Tianxun threw his head back with laughter and flew forward with a punch.

Ao Quan sneered and flung out the ring, meeting Xie Tianxun head-on.
