Douluo Dalu 4: Ultimate Fighting

TL: GoldenLung

Five days was a very conservative safe period, even seven days would be fine. But Lan Xuanyu, to avoid any risks, still set it at five days. This was their first time coming to Celestial Dragon Planet, but it certainly wouldn't be their last.

The cities on Celestial Dragon Planet had no walls at all, and soon they were walking along a wide road. It really was a continent, an extremely vast road.

The road was wide enough to span more than one hundred meters, and different races could be seen passing by from time to time. As members of the Blue Sea clan, they walked by the roadside and didn't attract any attention.

As they were walking, the sky suddenly darkened, and everyone looked up to see a giant dragon-like creature descending from above.

The other races walking on the road scattered in all directions, allowing the colossal dragon-like creature to fold its wings and land in the middle of the spacious road.

After the dragon-like creature landed, its enormous dragon head looked around gracefully, wings folding behind its back, taking large strides towards the direction of the city.

This Dragon-like creature was a full one hundred meters long, and the intensity of its aura was also quite formidable. It was obviously much stronger than the chubby dragon-like creature they had encountered previously. Its body was covered with dark blue scales, including its belly. It really did resemble a true dragon to some degree, the only difference being its belly was much larger, and its overall body shape was not as well-proportioned as a true dragon's.

Lan Xuanyu, who carried the Dragon God's bloodline within him, silently sensed and could tell that the dragon bloodline purity of this dragon-like creature was higher.

Continuing their journey, they finally entered the city, and observation was their first task at hand. Upon entering this city of Celestial Dragon Planet, they all felt as if their bodies had shrunk. It was because the buildings of this city were enormous.

Upon observing, they found that the largest buildings were actually meant for the use of the dragon-like creatures. Some buildings even had dragon-like creatures guarding the entrances, not allowing other races to approach, let alone enter.

Besides the dragon-like creatures, there were a few other races in large numbers. The Blue Sea clan, which they were disguised as, was one of them. In addition to the Blue Sea clan, there were also many centaurs with human torsos and horse legs. The unique thing about the centaurs was the number of legs they had, with the vast majority having four legs and the occasional sighting of centaurs with six legs.

What caught their attention the most was an eight-legged centaur flying through the air with wings. Its status was clearly very high, comparable to that of the dragon-like creatures, as it flew directly into a dragon-like creature's residence.

The number of other races was relatively less, and they were incredibly diverse in appearance. Lan Xuanyu and his group even spotted members of the Spaceborne Clan. When they first saw them, they indeed felt a bit nervous. But it was clear that these were just ordinary members of the Spaceborne Clan; they couldn't sense the presence of the Sleepy Bug on them. Especially now, with Sleepy Bug's aura being heavily suppressed. Without God rank cultivation, even within a range of one hundred meters, they wouldn't be detected.

Walking and observing, Celestial Dragon Planet was indeed very prosperous, seemingly untouched by the war in outer space. After wandering around the city for two hours, they found a very meaningful place. A bookstore, yes, a bookstore of Celestial Dragon Planet.

There were many books inside the bookstore, of all sizes, and those super-sized volumes were clearly for the dragon-like creatures to read. This indicated that the dragon-like creatures had quite high intelligence.

Finding the bookstore was like finding a treasure-trove for Lan Xuanyu and his companions. Of course, they had no money, so buying was out of the question. But taking… that they could do… ṙáNŏ𝐁Ε𝘚

The Celestial Dragon Planet's script could be directly translated with a device. After searching for a while, the seven people took several books that were most meaningful to the Douluo Federation, such as the history books of the Celestial Dragon Planet.

And then the seven of them fled.

The bookstore owner chased after them, but the seven were already gone without a trace. The bookstore owner, being a member of the Blue Sea clan, was angry but ultimately did not report the incident to the higher authorities. It was just a few books after all.

Lan Xuanyu and his companions found a place to quickly translate and record using their translator. This was important for both them and the federation. Understanding their opponents would allow them to face them better.@@novelbin@@

During the translation process, they began to learn about the history of not only the Celestial Dragon Planet but also the Celestial Steed Star.

What surprised them was that these two planets were not originally known as the Celestial Dragon Star and Celestial Steed Star but as the Twin Celestial Steed Stars.

The two planets supported each other and both belonged to the Celestial Steed Clan. The so-called Celestial Steed Clan, as they had seen earlier, resembled centaurs. They called themselves the Celestial Steed Clan, a race with a very ancient history. They were once the rulers of the Twin Celestial Steed Stars.

The universe was full of wonders. From the moment the Celestial Steed Clan began to possess intelligence, they controlled both planets simultaneously. How did they do it? There was a gigantic teleportation array within the Celestial Dragon Star and the Celestial Steed Star that allowed mutual transmission.

One step into the teleportation array, and the next moment you could arrive on the other side, which was extremely strange.

This was called the Divine Gate by the Celestial Steed Clan. The Divine Gate made the distance between the two planets virtually nonexistent. Moreover, since the two planets were extremely large, even though the Celestial Steed Clan had a history of over a hundred thousand years and their technological development was very weak, their abundant resources were seemingly inexhaustible. Using these resources, the Celestial Steed Clan's interest in self-development greatly exceeded that in technology. And even within the Dragon Horse galaxy, although the technological level of some other races continued to advance, it was insignificant compared to the Celestial Steed Clan, which could exist unaided in the vacuum of space around constant stars.

Until one day, one of the original Twin Celestial Steed Stars, now known as the Celestial Dragon Star, suddenly experienced a special situation. A bizarre dimension had overlapped with the Celestial Dragon Star, causing strange mutations to appear on the planet.

Some of the original species began to change. After that spatial overlap, dragon-like species started to appear—yes, the Celestial Steed Star referred to dragon-like beings as the Dragon Clan. This mutation occurred across nearly all the original species on the Celestial Steed Star. In their history, this was known as the Age of Dragonification.

The entire Age of Dragonification lasted for a full ten thousand years, giving rise to the current Dragon Clan, which was naturally strong and possessed no small amount of intelligence. They quickly established a foothold on the Twin Celestial Steed Stars.

Normally, if such a mutation occurred, the Celestial Steed Clan would definitely have killed all the mutated creatures. But these members of the Dragon Clan could communicate, had high intelligence, and united to resist together. After numerous battles, not only did they become stronger, but their numbers continued to grow. Most importantly, a powerful race emerged that could contend with the original Celestial Steed Clan. That was the current Celestial Dragon Clan.

All the original species on the Celestial Dragon Star underwent dragon transformation, and so the original Celestial Steed Clan on the Celestial Dragon Star also experienced the same transformation. Later, they became known as Celestial Dragons, with the head of a dragon and the body of a horse.

The powerful attributes of the Celestial Steed Clan mainly had two aspects, one was the number of horse legs, and the other was whether they possessed wings. These represented two different directions of evolution.

Before the emergence of the Celestial Dragon Clan, the most horse legs a Celestial Steed could have was ten. But, unprecedentedly, the Celestial Dragon Clan produced a powerful individual with twelve horse legs, possessing Super God level strength, who reigned supreme over both stars, undefeated among them, and finally led the Dragon Clan to defeat the Celestial Steed Clan.

However, since he himself originated from the Celestial Steed Clan, he did not destroy them, and the Age of Dragonification ended at around this time. Apart from the originally mutated Dragon Clan being able to reproduce amongst themselves, no other species experienced dragon transformation anymore. And the reproduction rate of the Dragon Clan through direct offspring was very slow.
