High above in the clouds, the fate dragon strengthened again and again under the nourishment of the spiritual energy. Strand after strand of white transformed into a pure red.

It seemed like its body was going to turn completely red.

On the other hand, Ouyang Shuo was experiencing pain in the dragon tomb. All his meridians were like rivers and the spiritual energy was the tiger water.

As the river water swept down, it expanded the channel at the same time, placing a massive burden on the river.

He looked like he could not hold on much longer.

However, Ouyang Shuo remained determined; he bore the pain that normal people could not understand, maintaining the link with the fate dragon. At the same time, he cycled the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique to try and alleviate the pain.

In front of the spiritual energy river, the golden primordial energy was like a small stream, slowly flowing along the river. Along the way, it repaired the swelling pain of the meridians and made them stronger and stronger.

Throughout this process, the primordial energy would unavoidably swallow up some spiritual energy to strengthen itself. Hence, Ouyang Shuo's cultivation surged.

This was a case of a person in pain being happy too.

Half an hour later, the body of the fate dragon had turned into a pure red. However, it did not grow bigger but shrunk instead; its size decreased by 50%, becoming more solid and real.

A system notification sounded out by his ear.

"System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi, fate dragon has evolved to the 2nd stage red dragon, territory prosperity and luck has boomed; the weather will favor you and things will go your way. Rewarding player 10 luck points!"

Ouyang Shuo teared up; finally, his luck stat would not hold him back. With that, it seemed like the matter of fate affecting one's luck would only happen when the fate dragon evolves.

When the fate dragon upgraded to the 3rd stage purple dragon and the 4th stage golden dragon, there would probably be luck rewards again. At that time, Ouyang Shuo would be a person that luck and destiny favoured.

However, the road to upgrading the fate dragon was a long one that needed many fortuitous encounters

In the wilderness, player countries could be split into king dynasties, emperor dynasties, and imperial dynasties. The requirement for a king dynasty was a red dragon, emperor dynasty a purple dragon, and imperial dynasty a gold dragon.

Hence, in terms of its fate dragon, Shanhai City had already met the requirements to establish a country.

Such an achievement was truly shocking.

One must know that even first tier lords like Di Chen and the others only had white manifestation of their fate. Moreover, the white layer had not been filled yet.

At the same time, the thousands of miles away Shanhai City welcomed an auspicious sign.

In the skies of the territory, a vast red dragon hundreds of miles long appeared. Regardless of their prefecture, the residents of Shanhai Territory could see it clearly. When they saw this god dragon, they could not help but bow their heads.

"It's a god dragon, a god dragon!" Some of them teared up in joy.

It might be somewhat hard for someone who was not Chinese to understand their feelings as a result of this sign from the heavens of legends.

The sky changed, and a spirit rain immediately poured down.

That's right a spirit rain.

As the spirit rain fell, the entire landscape grew in elegance and grace.

The soil of the territory grew in fertility, the crops and animals strengthened, while the beasts became healthy and energetic. The rain was like medicine to the residents, curing them of all illnesses and health problems.

"The dragon god is protecting us, it is protecting us!" The people were thankful, kneeling to pray.

When the rain drenched the soldiers, it did not simply heal their injuries; their strength also increased. Some of them even directly upgraded thanks to the help of the spirit rain.

Baiqi, Han Xin, and the other god generals looked up into the skies with expressions of awe.

The spirit rain nourished all the people in the city, and they could feel their bodies strengthening; they felt more energised, and their thoughts became sharper. All of a sudden, the overall strength of the territory increased by a grade.

In the Xinan University, Jiangshang looked up at the god dragon with a hard to read expression.

Only the heavens could grant such an auspicious sign; words could not describe it.

The people’s sentiment of the territory instantly increased by 2, reaching a terrifying 99. Based on Gaia’s settings, if a territory’s people sentiment reached 100, it would grant the Lord of the territory a massive reward.

Shanhai City had once again shocked the wilderness.

……

Ouyang Shuo also received numerous benefits.

Right after the fate dragon evolved, his Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique finally broke through to the 11th layer. In less than an hour, he had saved a year’s worth of hard work.

The Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique had twelve layers, so he was just one step away from the max. Of course, the last layer was the hardest. However, if he succeeded, it would be like changing his bones and tendons.

By Ouyang Shuo's estimations, it would be hard to reach the twelfth layer without two years of hard work.

Apart from that, Ouyang Shuo had to start paying attention to his next cultivation technique.

The Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique was the first part of the most pinnacle cultivation technique in the China region. The second part was similarly hidden as a reward during a battle map.

Ouyang Shuo had to plan ahead; otherwise, his cultivation journey would be cut short.

The second part of the cultivation technique was known as the Huangting Scripture, also a Taoist scripture. Gaia had set this technique to appear during the seventh battle map.

During this breakthrough of his Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique, Ouyang Shuo's strength increased from six oxen to nine. His strength increased by 50%, reaching the pinnacle of brute force.

Moreover, the moment he broke through to the 12th layer, he would obtain the power of nine oxen cows and two tigers, truly terrifying.

……

The spiritual energy under Ouyang Shuo continued to pour in.

Luckily, after his breakthrough in the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique, Ouyang Shuo's meridians had strengthened, and they could withstand the spiritual energy.

Above the clouds, the fate dragon changed once more.

The red within the dragon started to morph into a majestic and grand purple.

Another hour later.

Ouyang Shuo's meridians had already reached their maximum, and he had to withstand a piercing pain. Meanwhile, a third of the fate dragon’s body had turned purple.

At this moment, the spiritual energy river started to slow down and dry up.

"Friend, leave some foundation for this spiritual vein!" The voice of the Qilin rang out in his ear.

It was hard for such heaven and earth entities to form. If this spiritual river dried up, it would hurt the balance of the earth. Leaving a foundation would allow it to slowly recover, truly a moral and righteous act.

Ouyang Shuo nodded and cut off his connection with the fate dragon.

The fate dragon emitted a pleased reaction before it disappeared into the clouds once more.

"Thank you, senior!" Ouyang Shuo stood up and bowed.

"This is your lucky encounter, I only helped out…." Before the old Qilin could continue, Ouyang Shuo stood up and started to search around the head of the dragon.

"Little friend, what are you doing?" The old Qilin asked.

"Um…" When Ouyang Shuo heard this question, he felt a little awkward, "I heard that there’s a dragon ball with dragons. However, I don't know where it is."

"...."

Ouyang Shuo's greed left the old Qilin speechless.

"Um, I was thinking that rather than leaving it here to gather dust, why not use it?" Ouyang Shuo tried his best to explain.

"The stomach." The old Qilin spat out these two words.

Ouyang Shuo was delighted, he approached the stomach area of the dragon skeleton. Sure enough, he found a small, unassuming pearl lying within.

He did not hesitate; he pried open the bones and took out the dragon ball.

Looking at it closely, it was a little bigger than a dove egg; it was transparent like a crystal or a pearl.

"This is a dragon ball?" Ouyang Shuo expressed his doubt.

Based on his expectations, shouldn't the dragon ball be massive? This was just too small.

"Yes."

"Okay, if it is, then it is!" Ouyang Shuo did not ask anymore and simply kept it in his storage bag.

As for how to use it, Ouyang Shuo did not have any thoughts yet. After being exposed to the outside for so long, the ball had turned rock solid. Who knows whether one could digest it if swallowed.

"Can we go now?" The old Qilin asked.

"Hmm." Ouyang Shuo was extremely thick skinned, and he muttered, "if we could use these dragon bones to craft a warship, what kind of invincible warship could we create?"

As he spoke, he stared at the dragon bones and did not leave.

With the size of this dragon skeleton, even with the large capacity of Ouyang Shuo's storage bag, he still could not store it.

"...."

The old Qilin was left extremely speechless; it sighed and said, "Sigh, let me help you one last time!"

"Thank you, senior!"

The old Qilin did not speak anymore. A jade light shot out from the Qilin skeleton and landed onto dragon skeleton. Instantly, it shrunk to around the size of the Qilin.

The mysteries of magic had truly opened up Ouyang Shuo's eyes. He did not hesitate and kept the shrunken dragon bones in his storage bag.

When he needed to use it, he would ask the old Qilin to remove the spell to bring the bones back to their original size.

Looking out, the huge dragon tomb had nothing other than the two massive skeletons. The god dragons of the east were not like the western ones that liked to hoard treasures.

The taste of the god dragons was exceedingly high.

"Let’s go!" After the old Qilin said these final words, it turned into a green light and shot into the seal.

Instantly, the golden seal glowed. The Qilin on the seal came alive; it looked extremely sentient and active. Meanwhile, carvings of the Qilin appeared around the seal.

A system notification sounded out in his ear.

"System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi, mysterious treasure Golden Qilin Seal has obtained the willing injection of a Qilin spirit, the seal has been removed. Officially becoming the , congratulations player!"
