Dragon Tamer - Chapter 530

Chapter 530: Chapter 532: Descendants of the Heavens
 

“The army is on alert, the sects are patrolling, and there are many strong warriors guarding the steep cliffs, with a dozen Dragon Kings coiling around the giant pines… Which power is this, to have such an extensive arrangement!” Zhu Minglang watched with a frightened thrill.

No wonder the painter’s little aunt wanted to team up for the heist; with such an array of forces against them, how could she possibly succeed alone, just the twenty thousand Elite Iron Crossbow Army could stop a King Level master!

That Iron Crossbow Army is no ragtag militia filled with civilians; their bolts are imbued with cold frost, and the arrows are all forged from fine steel, extremely well-equipped, probably surpassing some of the Divine Mortal Ability users with lower cultivation in capabilities.

“They belong to the Great Zhou Sect, it’s best if we don’t expose our identities,” Nan Lingsha said as she handed Zhu Minglang a masked scarf.

The painter’s little aunt already has such a practiced trade, Zhu Minglang took the fragrant scarf and said, “I will make a move as a Sword Master; this way, I should avoid bringing trouble upon myself.”

“Hmm, my Divine Mortal Ability is too special; I got targeted last time when I snatched Cultivation Fruits. This time I’ll cover for you, just grab those few Platinum Cultivation Fruits, and we can leave the rest as charity for them,” the painter said.

The Great Zhou Sect, one of the Six Great Clans, they also have a Zhou clan in the Neon Sea, ranked among the Nine Tribes, and it’s merely a branch of the Great Zhou Sect in the Neon Sea.

The Great Zhou Clan has deep ties with the Royal Family; the Pu Clan has long been prosperous, and Zhu Gate has risen unexpectedly. Although in recent years the Great Zhou Sect might fall short compared to Zhu Gate and the Pu Clan, they have a profound foundation, very extensive power; the Zhu Heavenly Officer has indeed mentioned them to Zhu Minglang, as the one out of the Six Great Clans whose true strength was the most elusive to the Zhu Heavenly Officer.

The Zhu Heavenly Officer is especially wary of the Great Zhou Sect, so of course, we need to be extra careful in our actions.

Nan Lingsha’s courage is as big as the sky, other major powers would turn tail and run upon hearing it’s the Great Zhou Sect, but she’s quite the opposite, wanting to snatch resources from such a super clan!

However, on the flip side, if it’s not something of the Cultivation Fruit Tree’s level, Zhu Minglang really isn’t that interested!

Since the Time Wave brings countless exotic herbs and divine flowers to the world, naturally, what they strive for must also be the top tier!

“Your Zhu Gate and the Yaoshan Sword Sect are in the Wutu, guarding a Scorpion Dragon Mountain, and that Scorpion Dragon Mountain’s Scorpion Crystal Mine is not inferior to this Cultivation Fruit Tree. Li Yunzi’s Army Guard is assisting them in sweeping the iron mine’s devil scorpion nests,” Nan Lingsha said.

“Everyone is vying for Spiritual Objects… Sigh, why didn’t I raise a few more dragons, so I could guard more spiritual resources!” Zhu Minglang said, somewhat annoyed.

If he had a dozen dragons now, with each dragon guarding a piece of Holy Spirit resource, he would make a fortune from this wave!

“There will be another Time Wave, don’t worry,” Nan Lingsha said.

“Right!” Zhu Minglang eagerly nodded.

The changes brought by the next Time Wave will be even more significant, so now it’s important to quickly enhance one’s own strength, ensuring every dragon is capable of holding its own. When the next Time Wave arrives, we can “defend” even more treasures!

“The Cultivation Fruits have already absorbed the force of time, once they bathe in the first Dawn Light they will be completely mature, but picking them before then will ruin their essence,” Nan Lingsha explained in detail.

“It smells so good, why do I feel like I can smell the fragrance of the Cultivation Fruits from over there,” Zhu Minglang said.

“The essence of the Cultivation Fruits can no longer be concealed, the mature fragrance will drift far away and attract those powerful demons, otherwise the Great Zhou Clan wouldn’t deploy such an extensive defense,” Nan Lingsha said.

…

The power of the Great Zhou Clan’s people is indeed terrifying, the scent of the fruits pervades, and one can hear the cries of those strong Demon Saints from the mountains; they have launched three waves of assault, and all were quashed by the people of the Great Zhou Clan.

Bodies could be seen everywhere, and the steep cliffs were smeared with blood. Enormous chunks of monster meat were hanging from the gigantic pines, being devoured by dragons that crawled among the towering ancient trees.

“A bunch of lowly beasts, they even dare to compete with our Great Zhou Clan for the Cultivation Fruit Tree. Even if Heavenly Demons or Divine Beasts came, it would be pointless!” said a man from the Great Zhou Clan, wearing a Five-Colored Bird Robe.

This man was also wearing the Sparrow Feather Crown, tall and straight, handsome as a jade tree facing the wind. He looked down with disdain on the mountain ridge monsters that kept coming to meet their deaths.

He glanced at the sky, the night was pitch black like ink. In a short while, dawn would arrive, and as soon as the first light of the sun shone upon the Cultivation Fruit Tree, the Cultivation Fruits would be flawless.

“Hmph, our Great Zhou Clan is the Chosen Clan. With this divine grace, I want to see if the Pu Clan and Zhu Gate still dare to challenge us!” the man in the Five-Colored Bird Robe said coldly.

“With me here, your Great Zhou Sect will be far ahead of these lower citizens. Take good advantage of it. Perhaps even the Royal Family will have to look up to your Great Zhou Sect,” said a pale-skinned youth standing on the top of the pine tree, smiling confidently with a hint of contempt in his eyes as they swept across the mountain ranges, the sky, and Absolute Valley.

This is the Lower Realm, and these are the creatures of the Lower Realm?

Too weak, and the Spiritual Energy they contain is way too feeble. Standing on such barren land, it feels like even setting foot here would soil one’s precious shoes.

“The light is coming,” the proud and haughty youth said.

The noble youth walked towards the Cultivation Fruit Tree, waiting for the first light of the sun to fall from the highest part of the ridge.

Although as the Time Wave passes, the Cultivation Fruit Tree has already matured, and could be harvested as Spiritual Objects for those who have not ascended. But he sought perfection in everything.

Although the Platinum Cultivation Fruits had been condensed on the soil of the Lower World, they were considered to be quite decent spiritual resources even in the heavens above.

“Zhou Xian, I’ll take two, and leave one for you, no objections, right?” the noble youth said, turning around with a smile.

“All three for Your Excellency. Zhou Xian would have no objections. After all, even the slightest guidance you provide us is a tremendous grace!” Zhou Xian said respectfully, his words laced with flattery.

“Then I’ll go pick them,” the noble youth said, looking up at Black Ridge, waiting for that ray of sunlight to bathe down.

A ray of light streaked across, clearly not as gentle as the first sunlight.

The light was extremely sharp. It suddenly fell from between the steep pines, and the nearby Dragon Kings didn’t even have time to react.

Zhou Xian’s face changed, for he saw a sword. There was a person on the sword, who was actually riding it through the air, moving as fast as a meteor streaking through the night sky. The brilliance was not blinding, but it had a stunning, shocking beauty!

Sword Flight!

A Flying Sword Swordmaster, and a considerably high-level swordsman at that!!

In this Li Chuan Continent, could there really be such a cultivator? And by the looks of it, they were heading straight for his Cultivation Fruit Tree.

“Your Excellency, be careful!!”

Zhou Xian roared in anger and spoke out to warn the noble youth.
