Hope of Creating Dragon Transformation Crystals

Blood Peak Continent, Iron Saber Gorge.

When Andres's main body, Wind Element God Clone, and Water God Clone had just left the Skyrite Mountains.

His Fire God Clone was standing in front of the Plane Teleportation Array.

A hazy light emanated from the Plane Teleportation Array, and Claude's figure appeared within the light.

As the light faded, Claude stepped out of the Teleportation Array and bowed to Andres.

"Grown ups."

"Claude, Montra has been killed by me. You no longer need to hide in the Dylan Plane," Andres laughed.

"Thank you, sir!" Claude bowed sincerely to Andres.

He returned to Hell from the Dylan Plane because he received a message from Andres.

Many God-level expert in Iron Saber Gorge God Clone in the Dylan Plane, making it very convenient to transmit messages.

Claude was genuinely shocked when he heard that Andres had killed Montra.

He still remembered that more than a thousand years ago, when he fought Andres' strength was about the same as his own, and Andres only won because of his Innate Divine Ability "Swallowing Heaven".

A thousand years is a very short time for God-level expert, so it's normal for their strength not to improve. Claude himself didn't make any progress.

But in just over a thousand years, Andres' strength has increased to the point where he can kill Montra. How could he not be shocked?

"Sir, you are truly a genius." Claude could only marvel at this, and was even somewhat glad that he had joined Andres's ranks by a twist of fate.

He was engrossed in his research, and what pleased him most about Andres was that Andres didn't interfere much with his research and even collected a lot of artifacts to support him, allowing him to focus wholeheartedly on his work.

"Claude, did you teleport to another Teleportation Array this time? Did you encounter any special situations?" Andres asked.

As time went by, the exposure of the Teleportation Array became inevitable. In recent years, Andres has heard more and more news about other Teleportation Array operators being replaced.

"My lord, I was teleported to the Teleportation Array on the Bifu Continent the first time, and only returned to Iron Saber Gorge the second time. The Teleportation Array on the Bifu Continent is still relatively stable," Claude said.

Andres nodded. He noticed that Claude's system information had changed, and the original Binding Quest was gone.

A thought struck him, and he asked, "Claude, has your research made any progress?"

Claude became excited when Andres asked about his research.

"My lord, my research has been a success!"

With a flick of his wrist, he took out a humanoid object from his Space Ring — the Death God Puppet!

"My lord, this is my latest achievement. I call it the Death God Puppet. You can think of it as a humanoid artifact..."

Claude proceeded to give Andres a detailed explanation of the Death God Puppet.

Although Andres already knew, he listened patiently.

"My lord, my ideal Death God Puppet is a humanoid artifact that can be mistaken for a real one. However, I have never been able to solve the problem of 'being indistinguishable from a real one' before. No matter what method I use, an artifact is an artifact. It can be seen clearly with Divine Sense. Thanks to Dup and Babatonde, who are absolutely geniuses in the field of Magic Array, they suggested that I try to set up Magic Array inside the Death God Puppet. Moreover, they actually developed a suitable Magic Array!" Claude started talking about his research and began to speak at length.

"Oh? Magic Array that can 'deceive the real thing'?" Andres also became interested.

In the original work, the Death God Puppet is indeed difficult to distinguish. In the Plane Battlefield, many Commander choose to use the Death God Puppet to move around as bait. The Commander who are lured will only realize that they have attacked the Death God Puppet they destroy it.

"Yes, it's said to be Magic Array that Dup has been researching for a long time. With the help of Babatonde, it was finally completed after more than a thousand years. Dup said it's called the 'Illusionary Form' Magic Array," Claude said.

"Illusionary Form Magic Array?" Andres felt the name sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

"Ah!" He suddenly remembered that Dup's Binding Quest was to "help him research the 'Illusionary Form' Magic Array."

"How lucky," Andres couldn't help but exclaim.

He carefully examined the Death God Puppet in front of him, and asked as he looked at it, "Claude, do me a favor. From now on, focus on making Death God Puppet for me. Make as many as you can, and it would be best to make one for everyone in Iron Saber Gorge."

Claude was startled. "My lord, what do you need so many Death God Puppet for?"

Andres said in a deep voice, "The existence of the Plane Teleportation Array cannot be hidden for long. Once the news spreads, fighting and vying for it will be inevitable. I need to improve the strength of Iron Saber Gorge as much as possible."

Andres was very clear about his own abilities. Although he could be considered a strong person now, he was not the strongest. Not to mention, he was not confident of defeating Xing Yi of the Sea of Stars Mist or the master of Lake Punis.

It's only a matter of time before Xing Yi obtains the Teleportation Array of the Sea of Stars Mist, and he will also know about the existence of the Iron Saber Gorge Teleportation Array sooner or later. If Xing Yi also has designs on Iron Saber Gorge, then a battle between him and Xing Yi will be inevitable.

If Andres can defeat Xing Yi, that would be ideal. If they can't determine a winner, then he and Xing Yi might end up like Montra and Xing Yi did before, with a confrontation between two forces. In that case, the strength of his subordinates will be very important.

Claude also knew about the Teleportation Array and said, "My lord, crafting Death God Puppet is no problem, but crafting one Death God Puppet requires a lot of divine artifacts. I wonder if we have that many divine artifacts?"

"You don't need to worry about these things. Just tell me how much you need," Andres said confidently.

He killed the patriarchs of the Four Great Families in Somuo City last time and obtained their Space Ring, which contained many Godhead and artifacts. Later, in order to quickly cultivate an army of Highgod, he distributed those Godhead.

As for divine artifacts, although he gave away quite a few, the number of divine artifacts in the Space Ring the four clan leaders was more than the number of Godhead sparks, and he still had some left.

In addition, this time he killed Montra and obtained Montra's Space Ring, which contained more divine Godhead and artifacts than the Four Great Families patriarchs combined.

These resources will be put to use once the main body returns from the Skyrite Mountains.

It's fair to say that Andres no longer lacks these things.

After receiving Andres's assurance, Claude was relieved. "Alright, I don't have any other research for the time being. I'll go and refine it for you, sir."

Claude walked toward the castle, where a special place to stay had been prepared for him.

Upon hearing Claude's words, Andres suddenly remembered something and quickly stopped him, asking, "Claude, I know you like research. I wonder if you can activate the bloodline of the offspring of divine beasts?"

He had been struggling with how to complete Riding's Binding Quest, and now that he saw Claude, an idea popped into his head.

"Since Claude was able to research Metal Life and Death God Puppet, could he also find a way to Dragon Transformation Crystal?"

He wasn't sure, but he felt that Claude was more reliable than himself when it came to research.

"Activate the bloodline of the offspring of divine beasts?"

Claude lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "My lord, I haven't tried this, so I can't give you an answer. However, to study this, you'll need at least the Divine Beast Essence Blood."

Andres nodded, finding Claude's request reasonable.

However, he no longer possesses the essence of the Azure Dragon.

"Once the situation at the Teleportation Array stabilizes, we'll find an opportunity to go to the Skyrite Mountains. For the sake of Gaisreisen, Riding should be willing to cooperate."

As Andres was thinking this, he suddenly saw Claude still waiting there and quickly said, "Ah, it's alright, you go and refine the Death God Puppet first."

"Yes, sir." Although Claude didn't know why Andres suddenly wanted to study this, he didn't think much of it.

Shortly after Claude left, a Middle God from Iron Saber Gorge hurriedly flew over and found Andres.

"My lord, something terrible has happened!"

Upon seeing Andres, the Middle God hurriedly said, "My lord, we have received news that the Teleportation Array has spread, and many powerful figures from other regions are rushing here. It is said that their strength is no weaker than that of the patriarchs of the Four Great Families!"

Andres narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Is the information accurate? Which powerful individuals are involved?"

The Middle God looked troubled. "My lord, this is all the information we have received. We do not yet know which powerful figures are involved."

"I understand. You can continue to inquire."

Andres nodded, not wanting to make things difficult for him, and waved for him to leave.

Since he killed the patriarchs of the Four Great Families, Iron Saber Gorge's reputation has spread throughout the Somuo City area, and many bandits dare not provoke the people of Iron Saber Gorge.

Andres also took this opportunity to begin arranging for some people to collect intelligence from outside, laying the foundation for the future establishment of an intelligence agency.

However, given the short timeframe, these intelligence personnel haven't been able to gather any specific information yet.

"We've already been targeted? It's happening faster than I expected."

Andres released his Divine Sense to inform Lulutia, Cilia, and the others of the situation, telling them to be prepared.

At the same time, he instructed Claude to expedite the creation of the Death God Puppet, and he would do his best to provide as many artifacts and manpower as needed.

The entire Iron Saber Gorge was bustling with activity, entering a state of preparation for battle.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, three groups of people appeared in the sky above Iron Saber Gorge. They came from different directions, and each group had hundreds of Highgod experts.

They did not ride on Metal Life, but flew on their own. They seemed somewhat surprised to see each other, and faced each other in a triangular formation above Iron Saber Gorge.

A translucent white shield enveloped Iron Saber Gorge; it was the "Boulder Guard" Magic Array.

Inside the Magic Array, Andres and the others all looked up at the three groups of people in the air.

They had already sensed the approach of the three groups and thus activated "Boulder Guard" in advance.

Ten years have passed, and people in Iron Saber Gorge have successively refined the divine Godhead of Highgod. Now there is no shortage of Highgod who can activate "Boulder Guard".

"Andres, where did those powerful figures come from?" Lulutia asked, standing beside Andres and looking up at the three groups of people above.

"These people didn't ride Metal Life; they must be from the eastern part of the Blood Peak Continent. They are the closest to us and arrived the fastest after receiving the news," Andres said.

Metal Life were mainly sold by Montra in the past. Most of the Metal Life on the Blood Peak Continent were concentrated in the western part near the Sea of Stars Mist. In the central part of the Blood Peak Continent, there were not many Metal Life. As for the eastern part of the Blood Peak Continent, many powerful people did not even know that Metal Life existed.

Andres guessed that these three groups were probably from the eastern part of the Blood Peak Continent, which was relatively close to Iron Saber Gorge, but he didn't know their strength.

"Andres, what should we do? Should we fight them?" Lulutia turned to look at her.

Andres shook his head. "No rush. If they can't break through the 'Boulder Guard', then we don't need to worry about them."

What they lack now is time. Whether it's Andres' own cultivation, his subordinates who are refining their Highgodhead status, or Claude is creating the Death God Puppet, they all need time.

Andres' idea was to buy as much time as possible, and only take action when absolutely necessary.

"Um?"

Andres saw that the three groups in the air began to move. They seemed to have reached an agreement and all turned their gaze toward Iron Saber Gorge.

The three groups were several thousand meters away from Andres, beyond the range of his Divine Sense. Therefore, he did not know what they had been talking about, but he was certain that they were preparing to make their move.

"Everyone in Iron Saber Gorge, we've heard there's a Teleportation Array here that can transport you to other planes. Such a treasure shouldn't be kept to yourself; you should give it up."

The speaker was a cold-looking young man with long blue hair. His eyes were icy, and it seemed as if arcs of electricity flashed between them.

"Which faction do you belong to?" Andres asked calmly.

"Wushan City," said the cold-faced young man with blue hair.

"Bishui City," a Red-Robed Beauty said with a smile.

"Feiyun City." The one who spoke was a burly man with four arms.

Upon hearing the names of the three cities, Andres quickly recalled their locations.

After killing the patriarchs of the Four Great Families, he found maps controlled by the Four Great Families in their Space Ring, which included the markings of these three cities.

"I advise you to go back to where you came from," Andres said.

"Hmph! Arrogant!" The Four-Armed Giant snorted coldly and roared, "Don't think you're invincible just because you defeated Somuo City. None of the three of us are weaker than the Four Great Families of Somuo City."

"Stop talking nonsense and just attack!" As the Blue-Haired Youth spoke, a bolt of blue lightning shot out from his eyes.

A streak of blue lightning flashed through the air and fell downwards, striking the "Boulder Guard".

"Boom"!

The blue lightning shattered with a deafening roar, transforming into countless tiny arcs that darted across the translucent shield of the "Boulder Guard" before slowly disappearing.

"Huh?" The Blue-Haired Youth's expression changed, not expecting his attack to be ineffective.

The Red-Robed Beauty and the Four-Armed Youth also became slightly serious.
