Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System

--AN: Bonus Chapter 16/16--

"The dreaded grounds is a mystic realm that was created by the founder of the Dustwind kingdom. Every few years, the palace will open it to allow the top inner and core disciples of the sect to train in it for a day. From what I hear, it is a place not many can survive in easily, but those who can withstand the harshness of the environment will gain a lot from it. There is said to also be inheritances inside if one is lucky enough." Liu Na explained. She hoped one day she could also enter that place and try to gain something from it, but her cultivation was way too low.

"Why not come with me?" Kana asked as she stroked the bath water's surface. She did not see a reason for Liu Na not to come with her.

"My…. My cultivation is too low..." Liu Na replied. It was not that she did not want to. It was that she couldn't.

"Mmm? But I am a lower cultivation than you. If I can go, you can go. Come. I will tell them you are coming with me." Kana did not see any issue with bringing Liu Na with her. If they were letting her in then, Liu Na could go in as well.

Kana finished her bath and got dressed. She grabbed Liu Na's hand and pulled her along with her as they made their way back out into the front yard. "You ready?" Lord Yong asked.

"Mmm… But Liu Na is coming with me." Kana stated. She was not asking. She was telling.

Lord Yong's smile froze. It was the first time in his life since becoming a golden core expert that someone told him they were doing anything without his consent. But when he looked at the young girl next to Kana, whose face was pale and was struggling to get out of Kana's grip, he knew the young girl was not at fault here. It seemed Kana had decided this on her own. "Kana, the dreaded grounds are not meant for those of lower cultivation."

"But my cultivation is lower than her's, and you are letting me in. If I, a stage 2 body fortification realm cultivator, can enter, why can't Liu Na, who is a whole realm over me?" Kana asked with a questioning gaze. She did not see this old man's point.

Lord Yong held his head. He could not give a good answer to Kana's question. He scanned Liu Na once more and then looked back at Kana and was about to try to explain but suddenly heard Kana say: "If she is not going, then I'm not going."

"Kana!"Liu Na almost choked on air. Why would Kana give up her chance to grow stronger just for her!?

"Alright, fine!" Lord Yong gave in. He realized this little girl was very stubborn! If it was not for the fact that this whole thing was going to help Kana grow stronger, he would not even deal with such things. But the king had stated that he needed to appease this little girl as much as possible and try to get her to enter the royal family.

"Hehe! I know Lord Yong was a nice old man!" Kana said with a smile as she squeezed Liu Na's hand. "Now we can both go!"

Liu Na looked at Kana, who was smiling back at her with a proud smug look on her face and felt like she was dreaming. To gain access to the dreaded grounds at her current cultivation could be considered a huge opportunity for her, and this was all possible because of Kana. Tears began to well up in her eyes. She had no way to thank Kana for this chance she had gained for her. "I-I will make sure to work hard..."

Elder Ning and Lord Yong looked at the little girl who was crying and felt a little bit of guilt. If it was not for Kana, she would not be getting this chance at all, but now seeing her cry like this after gaining such a chance, they couldn't help but feel bad. Lord Yong scratched his head as he said: "Then make sure you work hard in there. Normally you would only get three days inside, which is three months of training within the realm, but this training will take a month of real time. That is a few years within the realm. So make the most of it. The tokens I will be giving you will transport you out when time is up. You will also be transported out if you are close to death.

"Although it will keep you from dying if it activates, there is no way it will activate in time if you were to instantly die. So be careful. The dreaded realm is a very dangerous place. The weaker demonic beasts are in the outer layer, and the further in you go, the stronger the demonic beasts. Unlike the ones outside the realm, these ones are highly aggressive and will attack anything. Your survival will be on you. With that said, we will be leaving now." Lord Yong gave a brief warning before waving his hand and wrapping the two in spiritual qi, and flying away with them.

Elder Ning stood in the yard and watched as the three flew away with a smile. "I hope you two will truly be able to make some progress in there, maybe even obtain one of the ancient inheritances."

Kana found herself flying through the sky, and attached to her hip was Liu Na, who was given a start when she was lifted into the air without warning. The speed at which they were flying was very fast. Kana could see the landscape whizzing by underneath her. It seemed they had traversed a few hundred kilometers in an instant. This also showed that the stronger one grew, the faster they would become as well. It made Kana wonder just how strong a golden core cultivator was compared to the realms she knew about. Before the restrictions of this world suppressed her original power, her so called deity status was already in the seeker realm. She wondered if this was on par with the top powers of this plane or one of the higher planes of this world.

After about an hour of flying, a large white floating palace came into view...
