There was still airflow in the sky. Ryan could see clearly that the snow-white, cold wind was moving slowly, but all the matter in it was suspended in the vacuum and could not move.
Ryan picked up a stone from the ground, gave it a forward propulsion, and watched as the stone slowly moved forward in the vacuum until it finally touched the Frost Dragon Arryris.
On the Dragons's massive head, its eyes widened in shock as it stared at the rock, which was smaller than its own Dragon Scale, and pushed its body away into the distance.
On the other side, the eyes of the Flame Dragon Crosstman rotated, swaying from left to right as the Frost Dragon moved.
boom!!!
Finally, the small pebble pushed the Frost Dragon to the edge of the vacuum. The moment it fell into the vacuum, the Dragons spread its wings and roared, soaring straight into the sky.
It looked at the unfamiliar sky in fear, hovering around it, not daring to approach.
"It's just normal weightlessness, nothing to be surprised about, right?"
Ryan said that this area should not be a complete vacuum, otherwise, it's hard to say about the Dragons, but his Knight Retainer would definitely have exploded and died long ago.
"Is this the power of the Dragon Emperor?"
Ryan asked, but Arryris did not answer, because it did not know either.
Ryan continued to attack, and before long, the Flame Dragon and Knight Retainer that were suspended in mid-air also fell out of the vacuum area.
" The Dragon Emperor still possesses immense power, and the existence of this power means that it still retains hope."
Arryris's deep voice still resounded like a torrent in Ryan's ears. His massive head drooped down, staring at the only unaffected Monarch in the Ryan realm.
Ryan looked at Crosstman.
"Lord Crosstman, did my father send you?"
The Flame Dragon was engulfed in blazing flames, which melted the snow and wind of the Northlands, turning it into a torrential downpour.
The powerful Flame Dragon, like a terrifying Magic Creature bringing destruction, vaguely roamed the center of this world.
"Your father told me to tell you that you should not touch anything about the Dragon Emperor, or you will be subjected to the gaze of Great Being."
"Or rather, hostility."
"Every Dragons carries the mark of a great Dragon God, and when you approach the Dragon Emperor, you will also be marked by Him."
"This is not a bad thing, but it will definitely not be a good thing for the Dragon Emperor."
"This is the secret your father discovered when he broke the seal from the Amber."
"He has been observing the Dragons race all along."
roar--
The Frost Dragon roared, spewing its breath that turned the torrential rain in the sky into Ice Crystal that swept towards the Flame Dragon. The sharp Ice Crystal struck the Flame Dragon's Dragon Scale, producing a sound even more intense than the clash of metal.
"Traitor, I will devour your heart!"
Enraged, the Flame Dragon charged at the Frost Dragon once more, but the latter was equally determined, and the two Dragons clashed in the sky once more.
Two tigers cannot share one mountain, and two Dragons cannot share one sky.
After listening to Flame Dragon's words, Ryan looked at the noble Dragon Emperor in the vacuum realm.
Are they being watched by the Dragon God?
This was a warning from Count Clayton, and it was unlikely to be wrong. The earl's father had no interest in these Dragon Bone Marrow because he was afraid of attracting the attention of the Dragon God.
But... Ryan looked at his Spirituality Panel, then raised his head and fixed his gaze on the crown on the Dragon Emperor's head.
He was certain that the crown worn by the Dragon Emperor was the medium of that world.
To be precise, it is like the Stag Antler Sculpture of Aixnier, the Tyrfing Hammer of Svadilfari, the Gram Sword Sheath of the Bilki World, and the Holy Relic medium of the Gam and Fenrir World, which can allow Ryan to wield a completely new blessing.
Previously, the mediums were all discovered within various worlds, but this time was different. He found the most crucial thing before entering the new world.
He only needs to touch the crown to receive the new Dragon Spirit Blessing. If nothing unexpected happens, the Dragon Spirit Blessing will be terrifyingly powerful, because it commands the Dragons at the top of the world's food chain.
The Earl's father's admonition and the allure of the Spirituality Panel made Ryan hesitate. Meanwhile, the Dragons in the sky were still fighting, neither side having a good temper, creating a spectacular backdrop above Ryan's head.
Rumble!!!
The Dragons was not just a background image; the terrifying aftershocks caused massive avalanches. Fortunately, the vacuum field continued, preventing Ryan from being buried by the rain and snow. Even so, the ground beneath his feet continued to tremble, and cracks tore open the earth.
" Lord Ryan!"
Brandt led his army to the scene and protected Ryan in the center.
When I stood up again, I had already made a decision in my heart.
Ryan took a deep breath, his eyes hardening.
"This world is so dazzling, I wouldn't feel at ease if I didn't take a second look."
The Spirituality Panel cannot be skipped; without conquering one world, no new world will appear before Ryan.
In other words, giving up the Dragon Emperor Crown is not just a blessing or a world; it means giving up the only trump card Ryan relied on to come to this world, as well as giving up his much broader future.
With the current population of two or three hundred thousand in the Frozen Earth Territory, what can they accomplish? It would probably take a hundred years or more for Ryan to leave the Northwind Province.
The only thing that can change all this is the Spirituality Panel, which Ryan chooses, but Ryan never has a second choice.
He leaped out and crashed into the vacuum, as if he had suddenly passed through a barrier formed by flowing water. Ryan felt like he couldn't breathe. The oppressive feeling made him clearly hear his own heartbeat. With each beat, his heart felt like it was about to explode.
Fortunately, just as he thought, this vacuum domain was the Dragon Emperor's innate power, not something that would instantly crush his flesh and blood like space.
An extraordinary world, extraordinary sights—the only word to describe them is "extraordinary."
Ryan couldn't control his direction, but he had planned his trajectory before entering. As he slowly moved forward, Ryan eventually landed on the Dragon Emperor's enormous frozen corpse.
As the two forces collided, Ryan's fingers were finally able to move for a moment, allowing him to once again use the force to get closer to the Dragon Emperor's Crown above his head.
However, just as Ryan ascended to the Dragon Emperor's head, the huge skeleton in front of him, in the location of its empty eyes, suddenly burst forth with brilliant light.
In that instant, Ryan was enveloped, and the world around him turned into an endless darkness. Then, stars began to twinkle in the darkness, illuminating the pitch-black void.
Ryan swayed his body, like limbs adrift in the deep sea with nowhere to go, his awkward posture swaying like seaweed.
He looked around at the dazzling stars, which made him feel as if he had entered outer space. No, perhaps it really was.
But it wasn't quite real, because as the vast starry sky grew larger and his field of vision broadened, he was surprised to discover that these countless stars were actually the outline of a Dragons.
It, or rather, it, soared through the dark void, its outstretched wings bearing the outline of Dragons, and came before Ryan, finally meeting Ryan gaze.
Those were two pupils as bright as the Sun, instantly scorching Ryan's soul.
"The Stars, the Sun, and the stars are all the same; the sun is the Sun, the Moon is the Moon, Stars are the Stars."
The unseen voice answered Ryan's instinctive doubts. In its description, the stars were not another the Sun; they were simply Stars.
The Moon is not a celestial body reflecting the Sun's light, but simply the Moon, where a great being resides.
And the Sun, just like an extraordinary faith, is called the Lord of Dawn and the God of Light. It is the most powerful and terrifying Great Being in all cognition.
"So... who are you?"
Ryan's soul was burning, and the other party instantly saw through his true nature, including his extraordinary soul.
"Me? I am the spirit of a world."
"But I am already dead."
The light emanating from his two pupils became even more dazzling, instantly engulfing Ryan. When his vision cleared again, the previous dark and void-like environment, resembling outer space, had vanished, replaced by a wild, ancient world with rugged, towering mountains and turbulent, chaotic rivers.
Ryan stands at the top of the world.
He saw a Dragons soaring through the sky, churning in the Cloud Sea, foraging in the ocean, and stretching atop the mountains. This was the first time he had ever truly faced a Great Being, and the dragon had given Ryan a tremendous shock.
It is said that being watched by the Deities is a curse, but in reality, it is because mortals are too weak to withstand the gaze of the Deities.
If eyes can kill, then for the Deities, the last word implying possibility can be removed. The pheromones contained in their gaze can indeed kill countless lives.
Surprisingly, Ryan's soul was able to process so many pheromones.
The Dragons soared to the front of Ryan, its massive head drooping down to meet Ryan's gaze.
In that instant, the most terrifying Dragon's Might in the extraordinary world descended. If Ryan hadn't been in consciousness or soul form, he probably would have fainted.
"In the moment of defeat, I saw your arrival."
"So I came into this world, waiting, maybe for a hundred years, maybe for a thousand years, maybe for ten thousand years. I don't know if you will be able to find me."
"I dare not approach Lady of Fate, for fear that she will see through my thoughts. She was our enemy in the past."
"Us?"
Ryan had some guesses, but he was still confused. The Spirituality Panel put him on the side of the spirit, so the other side must belong to God.
God or the Spirit, Ryan had no choice.
"King of Kings, God of Gods."
The Dragons roared, telling a great story, but Ryan's soul could only hear a simple description; it could not bear any more.
In short, I am already dead.
The Dragon Emperor, or rather, the Great Being who once transformed into the Dragon Emperor, left behind his final voice before it dissipated with the wind.
Ryan's vision returned once more, and he was back in the world of the Northlands. He fell from the sky, but the power of the Sky Knight kept him unharmed. The moment he hit the ground, his first feeling was one of immense power.
His power was unparalleled; his body seemed to have been reshaped, his bones, flesh, and most importantly, his heart, and even his inexplicable soul, all of which had been elevated.
Perfection. If Dragons are the most perfect life form in the world, then Ryan is one now, even though he is still human. But perfection is never used to describe Dragons; it is used to describe some kind of ultimate life form.
Looking up again, the enormous, frozen corpse of the Dragon Emperor had vanished. Ryan reached out and touched the top of his head, where he found a crown.
He turned around, and with a gesture, thousands of his attendants knelt on one knee, staring at him with fanatical eyes. In the distance, the two Dragons also stopped their battle, looking at Ryan in shock.
"It seems to be going quite well?"
Ryan smiled and said that another Dragon Spirit Blessing had appeared on his Spirituality Panel, but... it didn't seem to be a good thing.
Dragons are synonymous with tyranny and disaster. Don't be fooled by Arryris's human appearance; the true form of Dragons is the Flame Dragon Crosstman. For humans, the legends of heroes who fought against Dragons are always talked about, which shows the relationship between Dragons and human civilization. There has never been a story about Dragons saving humanity.
The Dragon Spirit Blessing can also bring about consequences that cannot be removed from the Spirituality Panel.
Of course, it could also be said that ordinary people cannot withstand the power of the Dragon Spirit Blessing. Just as mortals who get too close to the Deities will be assimilated into the Deities ' followers, ordinary people cannot withstand the radiation of high-level energy.
roar--
The Flame Dragon roared, its breath condensing in its throat for a long time, while the Frost Dragon on the other side stared at Ryan as if he had seen a ghost.
To Ryan's curiosity, the two Dragons did not bow down to him.
"Now that you have seen the Dragon Emperor, why do you not pay your respects?"
Ryan's voice was clear and penetrating, which finally brought down the Flame Dragon's breath, scorching a huge crater in the ground in front of Ryan. Looking down, one could even see the molten lava on the ground radiating a scorching heat.
The Frost Dragon also let out a mocking roar.
Dragons are not human, Dragons civilizations are not human civilizations. One sky cannot contain two Dragons, so how could Dragons possibly come together to form the power structure of a human kingdom?
Even the Dragon Emperor cannot rule over all Dragons. Each Dragons is independent. The Creator of life gave Dragons unimaginable power, allowing them to stand at the top of the food chain, but also deprived them of the possibility of living in groups.
Even if the Dragon Emperor himself came back to life, let alone Ryan wearing a Dragon Emperor, he could only make the two Dragons in front of him turn around and run away, instead of kneeling on the ground and pledging allegiance.
Unless... they are slapped to the ground.
"Okay, it seems you don't really approve of me."
Ryan waved his hand; he was quite happy because he had indeed gained a lot.
The physical enhancement and the divine artifact on his head are merely the surface; the real treasure lies within the crown, which contains a vast amount of Dragon Bone Marrow.
Moreover, it seems there's no Dragon God watching over us.
Ryan looked up and saw a huge head, a ferocious dragon's neck with sharp, red barbs, and a terrifying energy gathering there.
"Killing my father will kill you too."
The massive head retracted, and the Flame Dragon spoke:
"I just want to see if you're still human."
Crosstman extended his claw and gently touched Ryan. The immense force forced Ryan to use both hands to struggle against it.
"You don't seem human. Your father will ask that Brenna to come and see you."
The Empire's most renowned and legendary Legendary Mage, skilled in the art of spirit magic, has now usurped the position of priest of the Grand Cathedral of Light, a choice the Church of Dawn desperately wants to make.
Why does the empire always hire these guys who sound like they're capable of anything?
However, if one is not such a powerful person, one would probably not be able to escape the Church's witch hunt.
"Don't worry, your Dragon Emperor is not qualified to eat me."
Ryan waved his hand, pushing away the Frost Dragon's outstretched claws. He was joking; did the Dragons really think its claws were like a cat's punch? Those sharp claws could tear through even the strongest defenses of Mages.
" Hobii can no longer use this place to restore his power, and for the time being, I think we don't need to worry about his threat."
Ryan spoke, and the next moment he saw the north of the world, where countless gray-white Goblin were swarming towards them.
"..."
Half an hour later, only charred or frozen wreckage remained on the battlefield.
"Okay, now there's really no threat from Hobii. If he reappears, we can just kill another one."
Ryan's words made even the Flame Dragon Crosstman unconsciously lick his lips; his barbed tongue looked incredibly cruel.
It looked at the Frost Dragon Arryris and thought for a moment, "If I could devour another Deities, I would probably be even more powerful than this guy, right?"
"When to make a move?"
Ryan stared at the approaching Flame Dragon with a huge question mark on his face.
"Mr. Crosstman, you weren't like this before."
Ryan suddenly realized that these Dragons seemed to subconsciously regard him as one of their own, no longer looking at him with the same eyes they used to look at a human.
The humanoid Dragons cub, the achievement is finally complete?
Ryan led his army back to the Frozen Earth Territory, and the two Dragons naturally returned to their respective territories.
In the Frozen Earth Territory, many people stared in shock at the crown atop Ryan's head.
"Are you planning to seize the throne of that kingdom?"
"I heard he found a woman with big breasts."
Borgeld was the most excited, clamoring to start a war.
"This is not a crown, it's a collectible, an ornament."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Ryan calmed Borgeld's restless mind. What was he thinking?
However, the power contained in the Dragon Emperor's Crown, this divine artifact, was even heavier and more terrifying than Ryan had imagined.
The Spirituality Panel has changed; the appearance of the Dragon Spirit Blessing means that no power can stop Ryan from opening the door to a new world.
But besides that, the Dragon Emperor's Crown can also easily open the portal to that world.
