Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 1107: Chapter 1107: Grand Occasion
 

The three hadn’t eaten much for breakfast, but the ingredients were all high-quality, filled with life energy, primarily consisting of fruits. Feeling their own life force brimming, they boarded a vehicle in Fenglong City and headed straight for the Ascending Dragon Platform.

The streets near the Ascending Dragon Platform were already impassable, packed with crowds. For other species, the Ascending Dragon Competition could only be watched through broadcasts. The only event they could witness with their own eyes was the “thousands of dancing dragons.” As Huang Yuanlang had said, the Ascending Dragon Competition and the thousands of dancing dragons were the grand festivities of Sky Dragon Planet, held once every decade. Many species had come to watch the ceremony.

At this moment, the importance of the Dragon Clan Avenue became evident. Although the streets on both sides were crowded with various species, Dragon Clan Avenue remained clear, only accessible to the Dragon Clan.

The vehicle from Fenglong City dropped the three of them off at the end, about a thousand meters away from the Ascending Dragon Platform. Huang Yuanlang led Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu on foot the rest of the way.

As they got closer, the magnificence of the Ascending Dragon Platform became more apparent. The giant platform stood there, exuding a formidable aura of its own, towering into the clouds like a pillar holding up the sky. At this moment, Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu also saw dragons of various colors gathering towards it.

Most of the dragons looked like giant dragons, large and small, with scales of various colors. Most of them lacked scales on their undersides. These were the Lower-rank Dragon Clan. The Mid-rank Dragon Clan had scales covering their entire bodies and were bigger in size. Among them, some particularly large ones also shaped like dragons were likely the Upper-rank Dragon Clan.

However, among these dragons, the largest ones were only about fifty meters in length and there were no exceptionally large ones. This was because the Ascending Dragon Competition was only for those of the God Rank and below.

As he looked, Lan Xuanyu silently memorized the appearances of these dragon species. What he really wanted to know was what each dragon species excelled at. Different colored scales represented different abilities of these dragons.

For some reason, as he stood among the multitude of dragons, his Dragon Core within was constantly trembling, as if something was rising inside him, causing his bloodline aura to become extremely agitated.

The higher the rank of the dragon, the more it resembled the true dragons recorded in Soul Land, while those of the Lower-rank Dragon Clan clearly had impure bloodlines, many still retaining characteristics of their forms before the Dragon-Transformation Period.

For instance, some looked like lizards, some had no claws and dragged large tails, merely having grown wings at their backs. Others had thick legs under their bellies, disproportionate to their bodies, and so forth. They were not uniform.

In comparison, the dragons they had previously slain had more pure dragon bloodlines.

As he walked, Lan Xuanyu silently sensed the aura of the dragons closer to him. He found that the dragons whose body shapes more closely resembled true dragons had stronger and purer dragon auras. The Lower-rank Dragon Clan had more mixed auras but similarly strong life energies.

It seemed that the Lower-rank Dragon Clan could actually be suitable for his companions to practice the Body Refining method. After all, during Body Refining, they only needed the Treasure Hunting Beast to simulate the massive life bloodline energy of these Lower-rank Dragons as needed. For him, who possessed the Dragon God’s bloodline, using higher-ranked dragons for Dragon Power Refining would definitely yield better results. The purer the bloodline, the greater the assistance it could provide in Dragon Power.

Dragon Power Refining was the first step in the cultivation of a Dragon Knight and would continue indefinitely. What would the subsequent cultivation of those Dragon Knights look like?

Without a Mount Dragon, the First Seat of Sky Dragon Planet was already at the Ultra Divine Level. If he had a Mount Dragon, how powerful would he become? Could it be comparable to a mothership?@@novelbin@@

He wondered what the situation would be like if Uncle Le now faced the First Seat of Sky Dragon Planet.

Feeling the auras of the Dragon Clan around him, Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help but marvel inwardly. It must be said, the immense Life Force of Sky Dragon Planet had fostered the growth of these False Dragons. Even in Soul Land, Senluo Planet, or Elf Planet, there was no longer such a massive group of soul beasts.

Sky Dragon Planet truly was a beautiful planet that pained one to think of destroying. If humans could obtain this planet, it would be a milestone development for the entire Douluo Federation.

“We’ll go up front,” suddenly said Huang Yuanlang, who was beside him.

Lan Xuanyu came back to his senses and realized that many of the Lower-rank Dragon Clan around him had already halted. They were currently on a clearing in front of the Ascending Dragon Platform.

The Lower-rank and Mid-rank Dragon Clan in front of them had made way for them on their own. Huang Yuanlang proudly led the way, with Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu following behind.

The surrounding Dragon Clan were also observing them, their eyes containing respect and envy, but even more gazes were focused on Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, some filled with covetousness.

The aesthetics of the Dragon Clan seemed similar to humans, especially since the Upper-rank Dragon Clan could transform into human forms. The arrival of the “two beauties” truly excited these Dragon Clan.

Their direction’s level of attention continued to increase.

As they moved forward, the Dragon Clan’s bodies grew larger, and by the time they reached the very front, what Lan Xuanyu saw were human-shaped Upper-rank Dragon Clan.

Within his range of vision, there were fifty to sixty Upper-rank Dragon Clan able to transform into human forms. The various ranks of Dragon Clan behind them definitely numbered over three thousand. This was arguably most of the Dragon Clan, certainly those below God Rank.

From the first Dragon-Transformation Period, thousands of years had passed until now. The number of Dragon Clan had only expanded a few times, displaying a very poor reproductive capability. If not for the Dragon Clan’s long lifespans, they might have already been extinct. It could be seen that Huang Daoqi indeed had a unique approach in reproducing offspring, most likely having the most descendants among the Upper-rank Dragon Clan.

Of course, some Dragon Clan did not attend the Ascending Dragon Competition, including the juveniles and those like the Imperial family. Huang Yuanlang’s younger brothers and sisters didn’t come; they couldn’t all be considered juveniles, but their strength was not strong enough. As Upper-rank Dragon Clan, without adequate strength, even less than Mid-rank or Lower-rank Dragon Clan, it was better not to come and risk shaming their family.

So, gauging this way, the total number of Dragon Clan would likely be between five thousand to eight thousand, including those of God Rank level. This number might not seem large. But it should be known, even the Lower-rank Dragon Clan could at least grow to Titled Douluo level at their peak. Mid-rank and above had the potential to cultivate to God Rank level. Therefore, all in all, the Dragon Clan was truly a fearsomely powerful entity.

There might be hundreds of God level strong members, possibly.

Huang Yuanlang had just led them to the front when a somewhat shrill voice came from beside them, “Hey, isn’t that Huang Yuanlang? Where did you find these two beauties? Won’t you introduce us?”

Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu followed the direction of the voice and immediately saw a young man.

This young man had a pale complexion, which, from a human’s aesthetic point of view, looked very unhealthy. However, his eyes were particularly bright, with strange silver patterns on the sclera, shimmering with a faint mysterious light. His aura was restrained, making it difficult to sense his strength. He was over two meters tall, but his thinness made him appear somewhat disproportionate. His arms were long, and at the moment, he stood with his hands on his hips, his gaze unreservedly sweeping over Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, clearly displaying a degree of greed in his eyes.
