Craaaaaack…

There was a loud, unusual noise and the Divine Dragon statue on the portal soared into the air.

The stone statue wriggled mid-air and flashed a brilliant green light.

“What… is happening?” Ling Qingfeng gasped. “This has never happened before… not for thousands of years…”

Swoosh!

The dragon statue circled the skies and then suddenly swooped down towards Chen Xiaobei.

“Zhufeng! Watch out!” Ling Qingfeng screamed. “The statue’s speed and strength are at the pinnacle phase of Spiritual Instrument! If you don’t die upon its impact, you’ll be seriously injured!”

Chen Xiaobei, on the other hand, was unfazed. He called out, “Get down on the ground!”

“What? Get down? Who are you talking to?” Ling Qingfeng stared quizzically at Chen Xiaobei.

Swoosh! Crack… Crack…

In a flash, the statue touched down about a meter away from Chen Xiaobei with all of its four talons on the ground. Its knees were bent as its head and body hunkered down.

“How… is this possible…” Ling Qingfeng’s stammered. “The Divine Dragon… is lying prostrate before you… Zhufeng… Who… Who are you?”

The Divine Dragon was the ancestor of the Ling imperial family! It was the god of the billions of citizens of the Divine Dragon Starfield!

Here was the ancient Divine Dragon statue bowing before Chen Xiaobei.

A heaviness weighed down on Ling Qingfeng’s heart.

Had the people of Divine Dragon Starfield seen this happen, they would have undergone the same mind-blowing shock.

Their whole world would be turned upside down, and their beliefs challenged.

Many of them would probably give up their faith in the Divine Dragon and become Chen Xiaobei’s disciples instead.

Of course, it was not going to be made public any time soon since Ling Qingfeng was the only one who had witnessed it.

“True dragons also have a pecking order!” Chen XIaobei said. “Perhaps the blood of the dragon in me is higher in hierarchy and seniority to the Divine Dragon! That’s probably the reason for the Divine Dragon’s submission!”

“Sub… mission…” Ling Qingfeng looked uncertain. “Actually, that does make some sense. I’ve never seen the purple-gold dragon scales that you had… That probably belongs to a very high-ranking dragon…”

“Enough about that. Let’s get to the ruin!” Chen Xiaobei opened the door into the secret space as if he was the owner of the ruin, coming and going as he pleased.

“Oh… Okay…” Ling Qingfeng nodded, following behind Chen Xiaobei like a little lady.

Once they stepped through the door, the whole scenery changed.

The sky was green and clear, and there was not a cloud in sight for miles.

The extensive land stretched as far as the eye could see.

A behemoth silver-grey mountain range ran through the entire length of the extensive land.

The mountains were bare except for the blanket of dense Spiritual Qi.

This dragon-infused Spiritual Qi was perfect for people with dragon blood to use for cultivation.

Chen Xiaobei could sense a compelling familiarity with it and was tempted to stay and cultivate.

“This mountain range stretches for ten thousand miles. I suppose it’s the remains of the Divine Dragon?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

“Yes!” Ling Qinfeng nodded. “Look closely at the form of the mountains. The middle ridge is the dragon’s spine. The protruding (mountain) peaks are the dragon’s bones. The four smaller mountains in the range extending on both sides are its legs and talons. The peaks of two of the tallest mountains are its horns!”

“The battle is happening at the horns of the dragon…” From afar, Chen Xiaobei could see staccato-like flashes of lights, periodically lighting up the dark sky each second.

A massive battle was ongoing there.

Ling Qingfeng took off immediately. “Let’s go now!”

…

There was large gash in the skies above the head of the dragon carcass from where streams of soldiers in red armor were pouring out.

These soldiers were at the very least, of Celestial Cultivation, with a mix of Ethereal Cultivation and God-Ascension elites.

The Celestial Cultivation soldiers gathered below the rift and arranged themselves in a giant defensive formation made up of tens of thousands of soldiers!

The Ethereal Cultivation and God-Ascension Cultivation elites were at the frontlines battling against the Divine Dragon imperial family!

Boom! Bam! Bang!

Both sides were very strong, and this confrontation resulted in a bloody and turbulent scenario!

Spirit Lights lit up the skies, bright and resplendent! A blustering gale blew, and the ground tore and shook with an earthquake-like tremble! All around, hysterical exchange of blows and explosions fulminated!

Chen Xiaobei was standing beneath the head of the dragon. “My God! If this battle had taken place on any other common planet, the bodies would have piled up like a mountain. All life would be destroyed and the entire planet would have been disintegrated.”

“Yeah…” Ling Qingfeng nodded in agreement. “Luckily, the Divine Dragon ruin was created by a real dragon and supported by its dead body. Or else, it would be a catastrophe!”

Chen Xiaobei observed the battle for while more and then commented, “Both sides are evenly matched. So, there’s no need for me to join in the fight immediately. I don’t want to reveal my trump cards too soon lest the enemy might start taking precaution!”

“Mm, this battle will probably end in a draw.” Ling Qingfeng nodded. She seemed to have calmed down a little.

“Why don’t you use this time to explain the details of this fight!”

“Alright!” Ling Qinfeng answered. “On our side, the Dragon Emperor is at the peak of God-Ascension. He holds a Two-Star Earth-God instrument! All nine dragon kings are at God-Ascension cultivation. Two of them are holding a Two-star Earth-God Instrument each, and the other seven are each holding a One-star Earth-God Instrument. Farther down are the ten adult princes – they are all at Ethereal Cultivation with no Earth-God Instruments.” Ling Qingfeng pointed. “If you look closely, you can see that all members of the royal family have Divine Dragon blood! Like what we saw the last time, green dragon scales would appear on their bodies when their blood’s Special Abilities are in use. Their combat power would be boosted too!”

“Mm, I see that…” Chen Xiaobei nodded. “The Dragon Emperor and Dragon Kings have more scales than you do. This means that the higher their cultivation, the more potent the effect of the Special Ability would be, right?”

“Yes!” Ling Qingfeng nodded. “Take the Dragon Emperor for example. His Special Ability could increase to about 300,000 combat power!”

“That’s strange…” Chen Xiaobei frowned. “From what I can tell so far, the royal family members of Divine Dragon are very powerful! Why couldn’t they fight off these enemies? It’s been nearly one month already!”
