Star Dragon God
Huo Feng followed Zhao Alliance Leader into the dilapidated Imperial City Tower. Looking at the desolate state of the tower, Huo Feng could easily imagine the immense disaster that Medicine God Lu Xiaochong must have faced back in the day.
However, Huo Feng could sense some strong auras hidden in various corners of the Imperial City Tower. There were significant presences among the collapsed ruins and in the half-destroyed or miraculously intact buildings. Yet, Huo Feng was not concerned about those; it was only the Zhao Alliance Leader before him that required his full attention.
Neither of them spoke along the way. Soon, Zhao Alliance Leader brought Huo Feng to a building with a slanted roof that had been destroyed at the top. Huo Feng noticed a tattered sign hanging in front of the building, with words that had decayed beyond recognition.
Huo Feng followed Zhao Alliance Leader inside. As they ascended a wooden ladder, Zhao Alliance Leader said to Huo Feng, "This is where Medicine God used to meditate alone. Once he arrived here, no one could disturb him; otherwise, it would provoke his wrath. What a pity."
It seemed true that those with great abilities often had their unique traits. Huo Feng observed that although this place was quite run-down, it still showed signs of simple but thoughtful arrangement. The room felt like a secret chamber, with no windows around.
Huo Feng followed up by asking, "Does Zhao Alliance Leader also like this place?"
"Like is not quite the word, but as the guardian here, I am very familiar with everything about this place," Zhao Alliance Leader paused for a moment before continuing, "However, having stayed here for so long and lived this long, I gradually grew to appreciate peace and contemplation. Therefore, I spend time in every corner here to understand why Medicine God was so powerful."
Huo Feng felt somewhat confused. Could it be that Zhao Alliance Leader was also an alchemist? After all, Medicine God's strength was well-known, but his alchemical skills were unparalleled. If Zhao Alliance Leader was not an alchemist, how could he gain any insights from this?
Curiously, Huo Feng asked, "Could it be that Zhao Alliance Leader is also an alchemist?"
"Hahaha... I wish I were! I remember stubbornly wanting to learn alchemy at one point, but later realized that not everyone can become an alchemist," Zhao Alliance Leader laughed heartily and quickened his pace. His feet seemed to create countless illusions as he continued, "Alchemists have special requirements for Origin Force; it must possess healing qualities. For example, if you are injured, my Origin Force can help you heal much faster than others—though there are levels to this as well."
Listening to him, Huo Feng began to understand better and then thought of Grandpa Gu. He asked again, "So does that mean Grandpa Gu is an alchemist?"
Before he knew it, under Zhao Alliance Leader's accelerated pace, they reached the empty rooftop of the destroyed building. From there, they could see most of the Imperial City Tower. At this moment, Zhao Alliance Leader sat down at the edge of the broken roof and gestured for Huo Feng to sit as well. He then said, "No, someone like that old man doesn't qualify. He can only concoct some healing potions; he can't make pills that enhance strength."
Huo Feng sat down and was shocked by these words. He gained a better understanding of what it meant to be an alchemist. The spirit of Medicine God had never shared these details with him before. At the same time, Huo Feng realized why no one stronger than Blazing Flame Calamity had appeared here since Medicine God's time.
However, Huo Feng still did not know Zhao Alliance Leader's true strength and felt hesitant to ask directly. Instead, he called upon Seven Star Spirit in his mind and asked, "Stellar Grandpa, what level of strength does this Zhao Alliance Leader possess?"
At this moment, Vankun interjected, "This old man has already reached the peak of Oblivion Tempest, and he is just one step away from the Blazing Flame Calamity. All he needs now is an opportunity for enlightenment to break through."
Huo Feng was taken aback. The strongest individuals he had encountered here were the three young people from the Three Ancient Sects, all of whom were also at the Oblivion Tempest stage, but they were still some distance from a breakthrough. He didn't expect that the Zhao Alliance Leader would be even closer than them.
Seeing Huo Feng's dazed expression, Zhao Alliance Leader asked, "What's wrong? Does Brother Huo Feng sense something unusual?"
"Ah? No... nothing," Huo Feng finally came to his senses and, after stabilizing his emotions, continued, "I wonder what Zhao Alliance Leader called me here for? It can't be just to sit here and wait for nightfall to watch the stars together."
"Hahaha... Brother Huo Feng is truly amusing. Yes, I did call you here because there are some matters I want to discuss with you regarding dragons," Zhao Alliance Leader replied.
Upon hearing about dragons, Huo Feng immediately became cautious. After all, he possessed dragon blood himself, so he carefully asked, "What exactly does Zhao Alliance Leader want to discuss with me about dragons?"
Zhao Alliance Leader looked deeply at Huo Feng and said, "I can sense a domineering aura within you. I believe that is why you can transform into a dragon, and not just any dragon but the leader of the entire dragon clan, the Golden Wyvern. That's quite impressive; I'm curious how you achieved that."
Huo Feng immediately became alert and was about to stand up. He thought to himself how careless he had been; previously, the Three Major Forces had exposed their true nature because of his bloodline power. How could he have trusted the Free Alliance so easily?
But at that moment, Zhao Alliance Leader continued, "Brother, don't be nervous. I won't harm you. If I were as treacherous as Duan Huan and those bastards, I would have acted long ago."
Huo Feng indeed did not sense any fluctuations of Origin Force from Zhao Alliance Leader's body, so he sat back down but remained in a highly vigilant state.
Zhao Alliance Leader disregarded Huo Feng's demeanor and continued, "You need to be careful in the future. The forces of Duan Huan and those bastards are not to be underestimated. There might even be their infiltrators here since I am their sworn enemy and have thwarted many of their plans. Moreover, with your Dragon Blood, they will definitely not let you go."
"Yes! That's true; otherwise, they wouldn't have been guarding Death Mountain for over a year," Huo Feng agreed, believing that Duan Huan and his group would always have their eyes on him.
After some casual conversation and warnings, Zhao Alliance Leader began to get to the main point. "I guess you are not originally from the dragon clan. What I want to tell you is that the dragon clan still exists. Contrary to popular belief that they have completely perished on this continent, that's not true. Back then, the Medicine God helped the dragon clan because many wanted to crush them and turn their dragons into Contract Beasts."
Huo Feng was shocked by this revelation but also somewhat confused. He asked, "This shouldn't have anything to do with the Medicine God; why would he help the dragon clan?"
"The Medicine God is not only skilled in alchemy but also very intelligent. If it weren't for being betrayed by his own people back then..." Zhao Alliance Leader paused before continuing, "Forget about that; let's focus on the dragon clan's matters. The Medicine God knew that with his elixirs' assistance, these people would become very powerful. If they were to possess such strong Contract Beasts as dragons, their ambitions would surely grow larger. They would inevitably try to control him and make him a vassal of their forces; then he would be led around by others."
"Thus, the Medicine God quietly went to Dragon Valley and secretly formed an alliance with the dragon clan. He also concocted a special elixir, the Dragon Soul Enhancement Pill, based on the characteristics of the dragon clan. As a result, no matter how many forces there were, they could not defeat the dragon clan, which rarely left Dragon Valley, making it even more difficult for them to capture any stragglers. However, the major forces did not give up, leading to a stalemate in the conflict that lasted for decades."
"The dragon clan had always been peaceful and uninvolved in worldly affairs. After years of fighting, although they had not suffered significant losses, they could not endure such a way of life. Eventually, the old leader of the dragon clan, Golden Winged Dragon Karl, informed the Medicine God that he planned to leave this space to create a separate dimension where his people could continue living their previous stable and peaceful lives. However, he needed the Medicine God's help and requested 100 Dragon Soul Enhancement Pills. In the end, the entire dragon clan mysteriously vanished from this continent and has not reappeared since."
Huo Feng had never heard of anyone being able to create a space through individual power. However, Huo Feng had doubts: if they all left, why did he possess the bloodline of the Golden Wyvern? And what about the existence of ice?
Thus, Huo Feng eagerly asked, "How does Zhao Alliance Leader know so much? If the dragon clan really left, then why do I have their bloodline? And also..."
Huo Feng initially intended to mention ice but quickly stopped himself, realizing that bringing it up might endanger ice.
"This is also something I wanted to tell you," Zhao Alliance Leader said as if recalling something, staring blankly into space before continuing, "Seventeen years ago, several unusual auras suddenly appeared, causing chaos among all major forces on the continent. This aura was filled with the savage beast's energy; even the Three Ancient Sects sent people out."
"However, not long after, this aura suddenly disappeared. Initially thinking there was nothing to worry about, it wasn't long before Qixi reappeared but appeared exceptionally weak. At that time, members of the Three Major Forces and Three Ancient Sects pursued it all the way to Spiritwood Mountain Range in the western part of Dragon Valley but arrived too late; those Qixi suddenly vanished there."
"Now that I've met you today, I can confirm that the aura that appeared back then belonged to the dragon clan. It seems that the space they created is also located at Spiritwood Mountain Range. I tell you this because I believe you would be in great danger here. I hope you can find an opportunity to go there and release your aura so they can sense it and bring you back."
It seemed that Zhao Alliance Leader regarded Huo Feng as a descendant of the dragon clan. However, Huo Feng was shocked; seventeen years ago was precisely when he was born. Huo Feng felt an indescribable emotion in his heart—could it be that the dragon clan had some connection to him? Or perhaps his mother...
