Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 1099: Chapter 1099: Divine Dragon Armor, Dragonlance

Bai Xiuxiu asked with confusion, “It’s not so easy to ascend to the level of a god, right?”

Huang Daoqi shook his head and said, “The Ascending Dragon Competition is more about your own strength. As long as you can make it into the final round, the family will take care of many things for you. Great families need the support of Dragon Knights, and likewise, Dragon Knights need the sustenance provided by great families. Otherwise, how difficult would it be to become a top contender? Whether it’s God Rank, True God Level or Ultra Divine Level, all require substantial resources. As long as you can prove that you have the potential to become Dragon Knights, the family’s support for you will be all-out.”

In the Dragon Horse Star System, the classification for god levels, of course, differs from that in the Douluo Federation. In Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu’s minds, it simply translated into the terms they knew.

Huang Daoqi’s words were clear—if they could reach the final stage of the Ascending Dragon Competition, climbing to god level afterward with powerful backing from the family was almost a certainty. How immense were the resources needed to achieve that?

Feeling Huang Daoqi’s eagerness and sincerity, if they were not of different clans, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu would have been deeply moved. Of course, a prerequisite was that they had no prior curses placed on them. Huang Daoqi’s intentions to both woo and control them were undeniable.

Lan Xuanyu said, “We will certainly give it our all. Patriarch, what did you call us here to teach us today?”

...

Huang Daoqi slapped his forehead, “Look, while talking, I almost forgot the main matter. I have prepared some gifts for you, things you will need in the upcoming Ascending Dragon Competition. Divine Dragon Armor and the Dragonlance.”

While speaking, he nodded to Huang Yuanlang beside him. Lan Xuanyu noticed envy in Huang Yuanlang’s eyes. He then extended his right hand, and amidst a flash of light, a bundle of brilliance drifted from a ring on his hand and fell to the ground.

Embedded in his ring was a gemstone, clearly a Space Source Crystal, and its silver brilliance outshone any Space Source Crystal Lan Xuanyu had ever seen, clearly not an ordinary item. It was likely one of the highest quality Space Source Crystals.

Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu focused their eyes on the several bundles of light.

The first things that caught their sight were two sets of armor—one gold and the other deep blue, exactly matching the scales of Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu.

The material of the armor was unknown, but just by looking, they could clearly feel the immense energy contained within. More strangely, these two sets of armor subtly exerted a robust attraction to them. Especially for Bai Xiuxiu, she felt an almost irresistible urge to try them on.

Both sets were full body armors, including helmets and facial armor, almost armored to the teeth. In front of each set of armor, there was also a Long Spear. Each spear was three meters long, emitting a glimmering light, seemingly made of a material similar to the armor. @@novelbin@@

Huang Yuanlang explained, “These two sets of Divine Dragon Armor and Dragonlances have taken a lot of the family’s resources to craft. They were chosen based on your attributes, using the best materials. Guess, what are they made from?”

Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu exchanged glances and simultaneously shook their heads. Their vision was good enough, but these two sets of armor looked neither gold nor iron, not appearing to be made from any metal. Yet the energy contained within was immensely potent, leaving them both astonished and curious.

Huang Daoqi chuckled and said, “Don’t keep them guessing. Don’t delay their cultivation time.”

Huang Yuanlang laughed, “Truthfully, when I saw these two sets of Divine Dragon Armor and Dragonlances, I was envious. Father treats you better than he does me. The origin of these two sets of Divine Dragon Armor relates to the Dragon-Transformation Era. The Dragon-Transformation Era emerged because that independent space came close to our planet, causing anomalies. Only a few mutated creatures could survive the transformation process. Those that did became the Dragon Clan. Later, strong explorers probed that space and found some enormous bones there. According to our judgments, those might be the real Dragon Clan’s bones. All Dragon Knights’ Divine Dragon Armors and Dragonlances are crafted from those dragon bones. That’s why they are so powerful.”

“To ensure that you have a chance to do well in the Ascending Dragon Competition, father specifically sought out the highest quality dragon bones compatible with your attributes and crafted these two sets of equipment. You know, the vast majority of dragon bones are still in that space. According to the Lord Dragon Knights, enough dragon bones are needed to suppress that space to keep it stable. Those bones are buried in one place, and currently, we’ve only developed a tiny part of it. So finding dragon bones for crafting armor is extremely rare!”

Huang Yuanlang had just said this when an overwhelmingly angry voice had already risen in Lan Xuanyu’s heart.

“Master, I know, I know what that ‘Space’ they mention is. I also know where that Dragon Power comes from. They, they actually excavated the Dragon Clan’s Graveyard. That ‘Space’ must be the Dragon Clan’s Graveyard, where many from the Dragon Clan have fallen. They dared to use Dragon Bones to make equipment, it’s the greatest desecration to you and the Dragon Clan.”

Naturally, the voice came from the Treasure Hunting Beast, and his words made Lan Xuanyu suddenly understand.

The Dragon Clan’s Graveyard? What kind of place was this? He wondered if Uncle Le and Teacher Nana knew about it. Next time he returned, he would ask Uncle Le.

“Calm down, one day, I will avenge these Dragon Bones,” Lan Xuanyu solemnly said to himself.

The voice of the Treasure Hunting Beast fell silent.

While observing Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, Huang Daoqi smiled and said, “Won’t you try? A set of excellent Divine Dragon Armor will elevate your strengths even higher. Try them first, see if they are sufficiently compatible with you. If there are any issues, they can still be modified. You must know, there are only three masters in the entire Sky Dragon Planet who can forge Divine Dragon Armor and Dragonlances. This time I personally had the Moke Dragon Knight intervene to convince them to craft these two sets of equipment for you. They truly are invaluable.”

“Thank you, patriarch.”

“Thank you, father.”

Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu thanked Huang Daoqi, and each went toward their respective set of armor, distinguishable by the color they were made in.

Standing before the set of golden armor, Lan Xuanyu silently felt it out; his eyes sparkled with light as he slowly extended his right hand.

Fluctuations of the Golden Dragon King’s bloodline surged, and the aura of the bloodline instantly became powerful, as a low and majestic dragon roar emanated from him.

Instantly, the set of golden Divine Dragon Armor violently shook, and in the next instant, it separated into various parts, flying straight toward Lan Xuanyu.

It must be said, Huang Daoqi really did put his heart into their preparations, for each piece of the armor fitted Lan Xuanyu extraordinarily well.

The golden armor covered his entire body, and somewhat amusingly to Lan Xuanyu, the armor was crafted in a feminine style, hence it had some female traits, such as the golden battle skirt being pleated with dazzling patterns. What made him speechless the most was the breastplate…

However, once he wore the set of golden Divine Dragon Armor, Lan Xuanyu immediately felt a massive power surging through his limbs and bones, giving him a mountain-like sense of heaviness.

Strength trickled into his body like threads. Soon, he felt the armor had become a part of his body.

This was different from Battle Armor, which, even if normally stored within the body, still acted like armor when used. But this Divine Dragon Armor seemed to even extend his sensory perceptions outward, as if he had gained an additional exoskeleton. It did not conflict with the Battle Armor. Lan Xuanyu faintly felt that he could still wear his Battle Armor on top of this layer of Divine Dragon Armor.
