"Fortunately, I concealed my presence and have not been found by them all these years. Having kept my soul within the Dragon Ball, I must find the right opportunity to possess the young dragon."
Tsk, was this Light and Darkness dragon stupid enough to die? Talking about possessing a young dragon in front of Qin He, the future Dragon Emperor, isn't it afraid that Qin He will kill it?
"My plan could have succeeded! The carp in this pond could have been the way for me to infuse yin and yang energy to attract young dragons and other magical beasts."
"When the pair of silver fire dragons go out, I can release my dragon aura to attract the baby dragons."
"But unfortunately, for the past hundred years, there have been cat-like magical beasts or bear-like magical beasts... or human or elf groups that have occupied this place."
"In the past two years, a greedy and despicable purple lightning cat has taken over this spring!"
"That mutated purple lightning cat not only chased away the baby dragons that came to eat the carp and that I could possess to revive them, but it even threw the carp to them and sent them away!"
Qin He was speechless again...
You create a free fishpond in the wild, filled with fresh and delicious fish. It would be strange if it didn't attract powerful magical beasts to claim the land!
Even if it weren't Scarlet Snow, there would be other wolves, insects, tigers, leopards, and all sorts of other magical beasts occupying this place.
If you want to attract young dragons, why not just turn the pool water into the most ordinary clear water and simply let it emit dragon energy?
"After that wretched Purple Lightning Cat left, it attracted a group of Thunder Marrow Golden Rats these past few days, killing or polluting all the carp in my pond."
"If I ever get the chance to get out, I'll definitely slaughter all those cats and rats!"
A ruthless glint flashed in Qin He's eyes, but the sluggish dragon soul was completely unaware of it.
As if realizing something, the dragon of light and darkness fawned over Qin He again:
"Of course... if Your Highness Qin He wishes to keep that Purple Lightning Cat as a pet, I am willing to do my utmost to capture it for you. As long as you are kind enough to lure a young dragon for me... so that I can possess it."
Qin He feigned agreement and said:
"It is possible, but how can the principles between dragons be explained... I believe you know very well."
Qin He wanted to try and extract some benefits from this dragon of light and darkness.
"Ha...hahahaha, to be honest, that Silver Rathalos's lair is full of their treasures. Now all you need to do is help me revive and avenge me!"
"Afterwards—hehe~ the dragon cores of those two silver fire dragons, as well as all the treasures of the city lord's mansion, can be offered to you with both hands! My Prince Qin He..."
"Moreover, the Silver Rathalos's lair is currently completely undefended. With your strength, you could easily obtain the treasure even if you went there now."
Afterwards, this dragon of light and darkness went on to spread rumors about how the silver fire dragon had plundered the city's wealth, vilifying the pair of dragons to the point of incurring the wrath of both heaven and man.
It's unclear whether this dragon of light and darkness is genuinely stupid or feigning it, but it actually tried to make Qin He believe that a high-level dragon would leave its lair undefended.
"I mean, the benefits I can get right now! You do have some storage items with you, right? If you hand them over to me now, I'll consider it."
Seeing that Qin He wasn't buying into his flowery rhetoric, the Dragon of Light and Darkness was immediately stumped.
The portion of treasure he brought out from his own spatial scales is now stored in the Dragon Ball.
It could be said that after staying at the bottom of the lake for so many years, its only psychological comfort was watching the large number of carp and admiring the treasure hidden in its own scales.
It can be said that what kept the dragon soul from passing away was its obsession with its possessions.
Otherwise, this dragon of light and darkness would probably have already met its maker in Heraheim.
"This... Your Highness Qin He, I have been dead for nearly a hundred years, my flesh and blood absorbed into the Dragon Pearl. Only if you find a suitable young dragon to revive me will I have the opportunity to retrieve the spatial scales to offer to you!"
"As long as you avenge me! Help me kill those despicable merchant groups and the Silver Rathalos... I will—"
Qin He blinked repeatedly, and the Light and Dark Dragons were still unaware of what had happened when Qin He's Hundred-Refined Spear pierced their dragon pearls!
Not only that, its soul was also instantly blasted out of the Dragon Pearl by Qin He.
"You're so noisy and incessant... You idiot, you want me to avenge you—who do you think you are?"
To prevent the dragon soul from escaping with its cultivation and turning into a ghost dragon to cause him trouble, Qin He simply sent it to the underworld to meet Heraheim.
Just kidding, it's nothing more than something that has no leverage and is only fit to be taken by Qin He at will.
What right does such an inanimate object have to demand that it do things, negotiate with it, or make it offend people?
"Ha, Dragon of Light and Darkness. It seems we're destined to meet. Don't worry! Didn't you want a new body? Your Dragon Balls will soon become the core of my Cyber End Dragon. I've done what I promised you."
As soon as Qin He grasped the Dragon Pearl, he sensed the spatial scales within. Just now, even when the Light and Dark Dragons were on the verge of death, they refused to exchange their treasures for their lives.
That's absolutely stupid!
Chapter 155 Two Peak Saint-Level Dragon Pearls and Space Scales
Awesome! Whether it's Nidhogg's Bite or the Hundred Refinements Divine Forge, Qin He can use them to cut dragon bones. Afterwards, he can forge these into dragon bone weapons, which will make him a fortune.
The skeleton of this Light and Dark Dragon, which had reached the peak of Sainthood, was remarkably intact, and had even been tempered by the flames of the Silver Fire Dragon in its Calamity Flame state...
They exhibit a state of being burned with magical energy, forming contrasting black and white patterns on the surface of the skeleton.
It could be said that the dragon bones were not burned to the point of brittleness, but rather tempered during the battle.
Through soaking in spring water and continuous nurturing by the dragon energy emanating from the dragon pearl, they became even more indestructible than the dragons of light and darkness in their lifetime.
With a wave of his hand, Qin He stored the entire dragon skeleton, which was at the peak of the Saint realm, into his spatial scale.
Next, Qin He was going to force the spatial scales out of the dragon ball. Fortunately, he was facing a stupid dragon that only possessed a dragon soul…
Wearing the black Xuanwu scale armor, Qin He was even prepared to withstand a mental shockwave from his opponent. But he didn't expect the light and darkness dragon to be so slow; with just one spear thrust, Qin He knocked out its dragon soul, and it died on the spot.
By carefully probing the spatial scale with his spiritual power, Qin He discovered that it contained valuable treasures. Even the reserves of dragon crystal coins were quite substantial.
Qin He could understand, after all, he had once served as the city lord of Longyuan Dead City.
Not only does it enjoy the sustenance of so many powerful beings, but no dragon can share its wealth. Naturally, it possesses a considerable amount of various possessions.
Next, Qin He was quite satisfied with the resources of the Light and Darkness Dragon.
It carries eight peak ninth-tier magic cores in its spatial scales! There are more than ten mid-ninth-tier and low-ninth-tier magic cores in total.
With these resources, it wouldn't be impossible for Zhong Liu to conjure up a warship out of thin air.
But right now, what's even more ingenious is the summoning of spirits with magic cores. With so many magic cores, it would be extremely convenient for Zhong Liuxiu to directly summon the power of her original body within the magic cores to fight.
Let's imagine--
With a wave of her small hand, Zhong Liuxiu could summon a bunch of ninth-tier or higher magic core projections to attack the enemy.
Following that were some weapons and armor, the lowest grade of which were at least seventh tier. Qin He found a few items among them that he was most satisfied with—
The first is a manuscript about a lord dragon using its own scales, combined with various materials, to create dragon scale armor for its humans, elves, and even magical beasts.
The manuscript contains instructions on how to maximize the defensive capabilities of dragon scales.
A dragon scale is plucked, nurtured through various processes, and then inscribed into a magic array circuit. After being handed over to a loyal follower, the dragon scale will protect the entire body, just like the black Xuanwu scale armor Qin He is currently wearing.
With this manufacturing technology, it's more cost-effective than giving Qin He ten million sets of the same dragon scale armor.
Then there's a set of Saint-level portable throwing knives—a real treasure for Qin He.
The twelve throwing knives were crafted by dwarven artisans using a special metal combined with magic silver. They are perfectly suited for Qin He's current needs...
The throwing knife he had previously confiscated from the puppet "Yellow Springs' Limit" was already a peak ninth-tier item, but now Qin He has obtained an even better one.
In addition to the throwing knives, the box also contained eight bone-piercing nails. The higher the level of the throwing knife or similar hidden weapon, the more mental energy is required to assist in its operation.
Then there is a set of Golden Dragon Scale Armor that can be used immediately. It is a treasure made with that craftsmanship and using the scales on the top of the golden dragon's head. It can defend against attacks from those at the peak of the Saint Realm.
Simply attach the scales to your body, and the scale armor will automatically protect you.
If a throwing knife is aimed directly at Zhong Liuxiu in an attempt to ambush her, then the Golden Dragon Scale Armor will appear and block the sudden attack.
Qin He immediately decided to give it to Zhong Liuxiu. After all… his wife was just missing a protective suit of armor like this.
Next came a pair of heavy nine-section maces, their entire bodies gleaming with a dark light, their color resembling black iron. Just picking them up was enough to feel their weight.
They are called "Thunderbolt Black Gold Mace".
Qin He was very fond of the Thunderclap Black Gold Mace, and with his current strength, he could wield it properly.
If given the chance to launch a sneak attack, these Thunderbolt Black Gold Maces could do quite a lot.
Upon closer inspection, Qin He discovered that the pair of black-gold maces and the yellow-edged gold-devouring tortoises that the girls had killed earlier were quite related.
The handle of the black gold mace is inlaid with four black gold thunderbolt beads. These black gold thunderbolt beads are a wondrous object that can only be generated within the bodies of metal-eating magical beasts by feeding them thunderous black gold.
The Yellow-margined Gold-Eating Turtle originally did not possess ranged attack techniques like the Black Gold Thunderbolt. It only gained the ability to spew thunderbolts after consuming the Thunderous Black Gold.
These two Thunderclap Black Gold Maces are crafted entirely from thunderous black gold, producing a thunderous sound when struck together. Furthermore, they can unleash black gold thunderbolts according to their owner's will.
The Black Gold Thunderbolt is incredibly fast, capable of dealing with enemies it can't reach with its mace. It can also find openings to ambush opponents even under heavy armor.
This Thunderclap Black Gold Mace has an even more powerful move: it can activate Thunderclap Pearls to create an effect where black gold thunderclaps envelop the weapon, turning it into a pair of super electric batons that kill upon contact and injure upon touch.
When Qin He throws his double maces, they unleash a burst of black-gold lightning upon impact. The powerful explosion, combined with the weight of the maces, can easily leave an opponent bleeding profusely from the head.
Then there was a hammer once used by a peak-level Holy Knight, called Truth Strike.
Qin He felt a strong urge to criticize the name. So, your philosophy is to hit each other on the head with a hammer, huh... Well, that makes sense.
Truth lies only within the range of cannon fire.
Qin He took a liking to this page hammer mainly because of a casual conversation at a dinner table. He learned that Inanna was not only very talented with two-handed greatswords, but also skilled with page hammers.
However, the hammer that symbolized her family's honor was not allowed to be carried with her.
From that day on, Qin He silently kept this in mind, intending to prepare a decent hammer for Inanna to use.
In this way, even when it's inconvenient to use Divine Grace and Hymn, she can still fight with the Page Hammer.
For example, when Inanna used Divine Grace to pierce the green zombie dragon's jaw, if she had a suitable mace, she could have counterattacked and, together with Vild, to tear the green zombie dragon apart even faster.
The same applies when facing the Yellow-margined Golden-Eating Turtle; she can easily use Divine Grace and Hymn to pry open its shell. Even if the Yellow-margined Golden-Eating Turtle tries to bite and kill the two women, she can use the Page Hammer to counterattack in time.
After accepting the weapon of truth, Qin He then saw a glove.
The surface of that thing was made of the skin of a Saint-level White Gold Tiger with Hanging Eyes, but Qin He realized that its mystery did not lie in the skin.
When Qin He put on the white tiger gloves, he was surprised to find that his ten fingers had grown extremely sharp, jade-blue claws! Their length was incredibly exaggerated.
Then, the gloves transformed into silver-white metallic arm armor extending to the elbows.
Platinum Tiger Slash—that's the name of these magical alchemical gloves. They consist of arm armor and claws that become visible when worn.
With a flick of his claws, Qin He could unleash a wave of claw blade energy at the peak of the ninth rank! That energy wave was like sword energy, wildly slashing and cutting through everything in front of him!
After careful study, Qin He discovered that the Platinum Tiger Slash was a powerful alchemical tool. Simply place magic cores or crystals of the corresponding level onto the energy-supplying array, and it will automatically absorb the energy.
After that, the Platinum Tiger Slash can unleash its corresponding attack power! How powerful is that?
If Qin He were to put the pair of Light and Dark Dragon Orbs into the Platinum Tiger Slash now, it would immediately allow Qin He to unleash a claw blade aura at the peak of the Saint Realm!
With such a powerful alchemical tool, even an ordinary person could use it to kill a Saint-level expert!
Of course, the instant you reveal your killing intent, whether that Saint-level expert will kill you first is another matter entirely…
Qin He discovered that this thing, when paired with the Golden Dragon Scale Armor, was an absolutely perfect match for Zhong Liuxiu!
Now that Xiuxiu is wearing the Golden Dragon Scale Armor, she can be fearless against most peak Saint Realm experts. If she were given a pair of Platinum Tiger Slashes like these, wouldn't she be able to constantly unleash peak Saint Realm claw attacks and relentlessly slash her opponents?
It's decided, Qin He is going to get two more peak-stage Saint-level magic cores. Next... those two golden lion-mastiffs are definitely going to die!
If those silver fire dragons dare to object, dig out their dragon cores too!
Anyway, neither of these dragons are good birds. As long as they can arm him and protect Xiuxiu, Qin He won't mind killing as many dragons or monsters as he wants.
Chapter 156 The World's Strongest Dragon Lich
For Qin He now, killing those two golden lion mastiffs is profitable and almost a necessity.
With this equipment, Qin He was absolutely confident in obtaining the third key. Then, the Electronic End Dragon could easily kill the two golden lion-mastiffs.
Then, by placing the magic cores of the two mastiffs into the Platinum Tiger Slash as an energy source, this alchemical artifact can unleash its powerful combat strength at the peak of the Saint realm.
In any case, the future Dragon Emperor's throne is already in his grasp, and he has three Dragon Kings supporting him from behind.
Even if he kills that peak Saint-level watchdog and empties the Silverfire Dragon's lair, so what? Right now, Qin He definitely has the means to be greedy.
……
"Yes, that's right. The person in charge of the Dead City and Princess Elshi have all been killed by Silver Dragon Qin He. Please send people over immediately to resolve this!"
The Dead City Merchant Guild, officially known as the City of Death Merchant Guild. It has a branch stationed in the Dead City of Dragon Plains…
The merchant guild was responsible for everything from getting the Electronic End Dragon to doing business with Elulu, colluding with Elxi to kill Elulu and capture Qin He, and slaying the Light and Dark Dragons.
"Alright, from now on... all matters concerning the Silver Dragon Qin He will be handled by 'Garuda'—she's an expert at slaying dragons."
In the world today, apart from dragons being the most terrifying first race among magical beasts, there are actually countless other even more terrifying magical beasts.
