The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 1046: Chapter 1040: The Heavenly Palace of Dou Rate Chapter 1046: Chapter 1040: The Heavenly Palace of Dou Rate The casual manner of this scene directly caused Rainbow to widen her eyes in shock at the awe-inspiring power of the eternal immortal implement.

“Mew?” (Shall we go in?)

Gazing into the pitch-black storm where the Great Path continuously emerged, Daphne’s eyes narrowed slightly.

As they drew closer and closer, the warnings from Comply With Heaven’s Will grew increasingly stronger; yet, peculiarly, Daphne did not sense a trace of mortal danger.

On the contrary, her veins surged with an inexplicable restlessness, as if reminding her of a great opportunity ahead.

“Since we’re here, we have to take at least one look no matter what.”

David Jones took a deep breath and then stepped onto the golden pathway.

“Buzz!”

Like spatial teleportation, David Jones and Rainbow traversed the vast distance in an instant and appeared inside the Heavenly Palace.

“Quack!”

The next second, Star Frog opened its mouth wide, its eyes seemingly bulging out as it stared fixedly outside the Heavenly Palace.

David Jones followed Star Frog’s gaze and saw a dark mass outside the Heavenly Palace. Then, numerous red lights lit up within the space storm.

Upon closer inspection, those red lights turned out to be blood-red eyes coming from an astonishing number of Shadow Beasts, causing an involuntary sense of dread.

“These Shadow Beasts are unharmed by such a terrifying space storm.”

Having seen his fair share of grand scenes, David Jones was naturally not scared by some eyes. He was curious about how these Shadow Beasts managed to evade the damage from the space storm.

Unfortunately, even with his Golden Eyes of Flame activated, David Jones could not solve the puzzles that had long bewildered the Federation of Trainer Guilds.

“Forget it, let’s not worry about these Shadow Beasts for now; let’s explore the Heavenly Palace first,” David Jones decisively suppressed his curiosity.

Unlike the Flatflow Region, the Heavenly Palace in the Confluence Region could very well contain treasures left over from the Heavenly Court Era, such as Sea-Calming Divine Treasure Iron, stone monkey statues, Divine Crystal Stones, and other rare resources.

As a Pharmacist, David Jones could vaguely sense wafts of elixir fragrance emanating from deep within the Heavenly Palace.

Without a doubt, he was lucky this time, thanks to Daphne. The Heavenly Palace they had entered was still unexplored, likely housing many treasures.

Passing through a thick fog that was almost solidifying into Arcane Force spirit liquid, a luxurious palace emerged in front of David Jones.

The palace was supported by nine large pillars and covered with grey glazed tiles on the roof, while the railings all around were carved from whole blocks of Sacred Crystal Stone.

What drew the most attention was the approximately thirty-three-meter long rosewood ancient wood above the palace, on which three golden characters were inscribed in a lively, dancing script.

David Jones could not recognize the script from the Heavenly Court Era, but he could instantly understand their meaning through the residual will on the plaque.

“Dou Rate Palace?”

David Jones said the name of the palace aloud.

“Roar?” (The legendary immortal palace for Alchemy?)

Gluttonous Beast’s eyes immediately lit up.

“Eeh.” (Idiot.)

Rainbow slapped Gluttonous Beast with its paw, indicating that it was just a story made up by Trainers in the past.

From ancient times to the present, the Human of Blue Star had produced Body Cultivators, Ultra-capables, and Trainers, but never the carefree and unrestrained Immortals.

“Roar.” (But Dou Rate Palace has indeed appeared; this can’t merely be a coincidence, can it?)

Gluttonous Beast held its head in both hands, retorting.

Hearing this, Rainbow turned its gaze to David Jones.

“Don’t look at me; I have no idea either.”

David Jones was somewhat puzzled as well.

If he wasn’t aware of the history of the Human of Blue Star, he might even think he had traveled to the world of Journey to the West.

“We’ll know once we go in and take a look.”

After finishing his words, David Jones grabbed Star Frog.

The creature, enticed by the scent, wanted to rush towards the garden behind Dou Rate Palace. It wasn’t worried about encountering a formidable opponent that might turn it into a delectable frog head.

“Quack.”

Star Frog’s belly swelled slightly in anticipation, yet it remained unable to escape the palm of David Jones.

At this moment, Goldy pushed open the grand doors of the Dou Rate Palace with force.

As a heavy scraping sound arose, a blackened, somewhat dilapidated alchemy platform appeared before David Jones, making him show a look of regret.

This was solely because the elixir cauldron on the platform, as dark as ink, was dull and had lost most of its spirituality.

Even so, David could still sense the extraordinariness of this elixir cauldron.

From its appearance, the cauldron had eight sides, each engraved with Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui.

These eight sides symbolized Heaven, Earth, Thunder, Wind, Water, Fire, Mountain, and Swamp respectively.

Both ears of the tripod were inlaid with four Divine Crystal Stones, and the mouth of the furnace was filled with a faint divine elixir soul that would drive any Pharmacist wild with desire.

It was evident that this elixir cauldron had refined more than one Immortal Divine Elixir before.

Thinking of this, David immediately activated his Golden Eyes of Flame.

“Profile”: Taiqing Bagua Furnace

“Level”: SS tier Class IX (currently B tier Class IX)

“Introduction”: A top-grade immortal implement crafted with the Eight Trigrams and Eight Natural Phenomena as its core. It is the treasure that guards the Dou Rate Palace and is immovable. Due to the long absence of Six Ding Divine Fire, it has lost much of its spirituality.

“Features”: Eight Trigrams Form Images, Nine-Temper to Deify (the elixir furnace can automatically refine elixirs below the Immortal Divine Elixir without much chance of failure.)

“Attached Magic”: Nine-turns to Deification (Refine the Nine-turns Golden Elixir nine times with the Bagua Furnace, and it can enhance the elixir to the Immortal Divine Elixir tier)

Note: Due to the loss of too much spirituality, both features and magic of the Bagua Furnace are currently unusable.

“What a pity for an immortal implement.”

With a sigh, David began contemplating how to move the Taiqing Bagua Furnace into the mesona world.

“Meow.”

Daphne gazed at the Bagua Furnace with glowing eyes.

If she could obtain this elixir cauldron, she might be able to try refining top-grade Nine-turns Golden Elixirs with David.

“Yi.” (Let me do it.)

Rainbow landed in front of the elixir cauldron and then lifted it with all her strength.

“Boom!”

Despite the explosive sound, the Bagua Furnace on the high platform remained immovable as Mt Kilimanjaro, without even the slightest sign of budging.

Rainbow: “!!!”

Seeing the big sister fail, the other little creatures also became interested and stepped forward to show off their methods, but all failed nonetheless.

The companions: “???”

What was going on? They could triumph in fight against Semi-Immortals, yet they were unable to sway a mere object!

“Tweet chirp!”

At that time, Lolo ran toward the back garden, the source of the fragrance of elixirs.

“Jade Pool Lotus.”

“Purple Cloud Ganoderma.”

“Nine Lucid Asura.”

“…”

“Dragon Dawn Ginseng of tens of thousands of years old!”

Even though David was well-informed, his breathing inevitably quickened in the moment his gaze swept across the mesona garden.

The reason was simple— the quality of the mesona planted in the garden was at least of the Level VIII Legendary tier, and there were even plenty of extinct Level IX Immortal mesona from the six-pole of the world, including ingredients for the Three Thousand Dragon Transformation Pill.

And such a garden existed in not just one but three whole sections within the Dou Rate Palace!

To know, a standard Three Thousand Dragon Transformation Pill could help a Beast remodel its Dragon Body, awaken Dragon Blood magic, sublime the soul, and consolidate an Immortal Foundation, breaking through the barriers of an Eighth-Rank Emperor to step into the Semi-Immortal Level.

An advanced Three Thousand Dragon Transformation Pill, even more so, was a top-grade Level IX Immortal Divine Elixir.

A single pill could allow a Semi-Immortal Dragon Pet to easily break through the Semi-Immortal barriers, attain pure Immortal Divine Power, and ignite the divine fire in the most perfect form.

However, regrettably, even now with all the spiritual herbs available, David lacked the ability to refine the advanced Three Thousand Dragon Transformation Pill!
