The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 845: Chapter 839: Mysterious Treasure

“We’ve been spotted!”

Having sensed Lolo’s gaze, Leonid Roland abandoned his plan to launch a surprise attack.

He stood atop a giant tree, looking down at David Jones with a glint of combativeness in his eyes.

“Aren’t you going to summon your pet? Relying solely on a little radish won’t win you the battle.”

The essence within the Buried Land was limited, so in order to secure enough essence to strengthen their pets, each Legendary Beast Tamer participating in the Overlord’s Path could only bring one or two pets inside.

In Leonid Roland’s eyes, the Class VII radish was barely an appetizer; it was David Jones’s Destruction Tyrant Dragon that was the real challenge.

“Jiuji!” (What’s wrong with the radish!)

Lolo stood with her arms akimbo, her face full of indignation.

However, Leonid’s gaze never lingered on Lolo.

Between his fingers, a dark Rune Circle appeared, and an undeniably domineering aura erupted with force.

An Emperor Dragon with a thick, short neck and a robust head, its skin textured with deep brown patterns and armored plating on both its head and back, tore through the space and emerged, exuding an earth-shattering presence that caused David Jones’s eyes to narrow slightly.

“Pet Name”: Earth Sand Emperor Dragon

“Pet Type”: Rock

“Species Level”: Emperor

“Grade”: Class VIII upper-level

“Species Skill”: Rock Armor, Sand Dragon’s Breath, Ground Shockwave, Legend Realm…

“Pet Profile”: The Earth Sand Emperor Dragon is a special evolution of the King Sand Dragon species. Its body is perpetually covered in a layer of Rock Armor that provides formidable defense, allowing it to contend with fellow Emperor Dragons.

Surprise crossed David Jones’s face.

For someone of Leonid Roland’s status, contracting a Level VIII Emperor Dragon may be a challenge, but contracting a King Dragon Species capable of evolving into the Emperor type would be considerably easier.

The Sand Dragon is considered a disgrace among the King land dragons, not only because its strength is weaker than that of its Class VII brethren, the Sub-Dragons, but its temperament is also extraordinarily volatile, often choosing to ignore the Trainer’s commands. Even King-level Trainers are reluctant to make contracts with this dragon species.

The fact that Leonid Roland was willing to forego a potential Overlord True Dragon and willingly choose the Earth Sand Emperor Dragon suggested that this special evolution was not to be underestimated.

“Director Leonid is quite cautious, to have found himself an assistant,” David Jones said, glancing behind him with the corner of his eye.

At his words, Leonid Roland laughed heartily.

“Mephisto Ken, I told you there was no need for all this. You just wouldn’t believe me.”

From within the dense jungle, where no one was to be seen, the figure of Mephisto Ken slowly emerged.

“Don’t worry, I won’t interfere in your battle,” he said.

As Mephisto Ken finished speaking, the earth-toned lizard on his shoulder opened its mouth and released a faint breath that merged with the ancient trees and earth around, creating ripples in space that completely locked down the area.@@novelbin@@

“The rest is up to you!” Mephisto Ken said, crossing his arms over his chest.

“Rest assured, I’ll take care of him,” Leonid Roland replied with a ferocious smile, his gaze shifting towards David Jones.

“Come on then, let me see the might of the Dragon Subduing Deity!”

“I have more important things to take care of right now,” David Jones replied calmly. “Let’s leave this battle for later.”

Leonid Roland’s brows knitted slightly, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes, “You can’t escape within the Sonic Lizard Zone!”

“If you’re scared, you could choose to leave the Buried Land. Making excuses won’t help you with me.”

“Stop wasting time and get started!” Mephisto Ken reminded.

Hearing this, Leonid Roland sighed. The colossal beast beside him took a step forward, causing the ground to shake intensely, and a long, deep fissure surged towards David Jones.

Faced with this swift and overbearing attack, David Jones patted Lolo’s head, and in an instant both man and radish disappeared into space, leaving only an echoing voice behind.

“The weak need reasons, I don’t have time to waste right now.”

“???”

Upon witnessing this shocking scene, Leonid Roland instinctively looked towards Mephisto Ken.

We agreed to lock down the space, how did you let David Jones go?

Mephisto Ken’s brows furrowed, seemingly communicating with the Pet on his shoulder.

After a while, he sighed lightly, “Being able to easily break the Sonic Lizard Zone, David Jones’s strength is definitely not as simple as the data shows. It seems his danger level needs to be upgraded.”

“Are you saying that the next time we meet, the two of us will have to join forces against a young man?” Leonid Roland said, displeased.

“Why not?”

Mephisto Ken looked straight at Leonid Roland, “When the snipe and clam grapple, the fisherman gains. You also know David Jones is a person of great destiny. If we let him be, the ultimate winner of the Overlord’s path might end up being the weakest among us!”

Leonid Roland fell silent.

…

Meanwhile, David Jones used Instant Teleportation to arrive at a mountain range filled with the majestic heavenly and earthly arcane force, picturesque and serene.

“Chirp?” (Why not teach them a lesson?)

Lolo pouted and asked.

It could handle the Earth Sand Emperor Dragon; Loona could deal with another person. Even if they ended up in a two-on-one situation and couldn’t win, they could still leave through Instant Teleportation.

“Not necessary.”

David Jones patted the green leaves on Lolo’s head, “Just two tendrils of essence. If we’re going to do something, let’s go big! If the location sensed by the Chaos Ginseng Tree is not wrong, we might gain a Wood Type treasure or a huge amount of essence of land!”

“Only one can be the victor on the path to becoming Overlord. The essences on those two people can never elude our grasp. But if the thing sensed by the Chaos Ginseng Tree is taken by someone else, then it’s truly gone!”

Upon hearing this from David Jones, Lolo’s anger subsided.

It hurriedly pulled out the fragment of the Chaos Ginseng Tree, its emerald eyes filled with urgency.

The Chaos Ginseng Tree lacked intelligence, but it had a sensing ability akin to that of a Treasure Hunting Mouse.

However, unlike the Treasure Hunting Mouse, which seeks heavenly and earthly treasures, the Chaos Ginseng Tree senses Pet Resources that can repair it and allow it to undergo Nirvana rebirth.

With a Species Level as high as Level VIII SS tier, few Pet Resources within the Buried Land could evoke a response from it, and Lolo’s sole thought was the essence of land.

“Let’s go, follow the direction the Chaos Ginseng Tree is pointing us to.”

David Jones looked up at the vast mountain range, his eyes burst with intense purple-gold light, as he used Glimpse the Future to anticipate the information about that supreme treasure.

Boom!

The scene before David Jones’s eyes went dark in an instant, and a giant beast with a body of gold slowly came into view.

Its tortoise shell was like flowing gold, covered with arcane and complex patterns, and the dragon head protruding from the shell was holding a radiant golden stone, which seemed like an avatar of the earth, emitting endless vitality.

“Roar!”

Then, a majestic beast roar resounded in David Jones’s mind, abruptly interrupting Glimpse the Future.

“Interesting, that must be the Mountain Guardian Emperor that my mentor mentioned!” David Jones mused upon recalling the appearance of the treasure from the future image.

Without accidents, the treasure sensed by the Chaos Ginseng Tree would be owned by someone.

But it didn’t matter. There were few restrictions on the rules of the Overlord’s path, and his act of seizing Pet Resources from the Mountain Guarding Emperor Beast isn’t even considered rule-breaking; it’s allowed as part of the game.

Otherwise, Legendary Beast Tamers wouldn’t spend a fortune in merits to enter the Overlord’s path.
