The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 560: Chapter 554: Hidden Dragon

“Eek!”

Sensing the intense danger within the flames, Rainbow couldn’t help but widen her dragon eyes and alert David Jones to the danger.

David Jones’s eyes glimmered with a hint of excitement as he muttered, “You feel it too, the power from space!”

Indeed, the new trait that awoke with the Dragon-Wielding force this time was related to the Immortal, and it wasn’t the usual auxiliary type trait but an unprecedented spatial teleportation trait.

[Hidden Dragon]: The dragon lurks in the abyss, waiting to act. The Immortal conceals its edge; the divine dragon towers. The awakener can burst forth and ignite the Hidden Dragon Fire with the Dragon Force within their body in one go. The more Dragon Force consumed, the more powerful the Hidden Dragon Fire becomes in breaking through space. Not even the spatial blockades of Legend powerhouses can stop the Hidden Dragon Fire’s dragon teleportation.

Note: If combined with Saint Crystals and other Legendary resources, the spatial travel capability of Hidden Dragon will get an additional boost. Should the Hidden Dragon Fire obtain an immersion of Immortal Power, it can break even the Immortal’s seals.

After perceiving the strength of Hidden Dragon, David Jones suddenly had an intuition: with his current strength, it might be hard to threaten anyone above the Epic level, but if he decided to escape, no one could stop him.

Hidden Dragon Fire could render the blockade of a Legend Realm ineffective in suppressing space. Consequently, even legendary powerhouses would struggle to capture a determined escapee like Lolo.

After all, regardless of anything else, Lolo was a Space dragon pet, with maximum escaping capabilities.

“Wait, with the might of Hidden Dragon Fire, this trait could not only become an ultimate skill for escape but also a killer move against spatial Beasts!” David Jones’s eyes suddenly shone.

Spatial teleportation could lead to innumerable changes and control everything, naturally earning spatial Beasts their formidable reputation as a Transcendent Existence, sought after by countless Trainers but a rarity to encounter.

Hidden Dragon Fire could break spatial blockades, giving Lolo a natural advantage to overwhelm other Beasts of the Space type.

“Mew!”

Just then, Daphne slightly lifted her head, her sun-like eyes revealing a thread of longing.

“Don’t worry, your Dragon-Breath Herb has long been prepared!”

Having said that, David Jones took out two herbs of exceptional quality from the Star Ring.

It must be said, the Prince was extremely generous in his gifting; apart from the dukedom, just the fee for the medical treatment this time had brought David Jones a haul of ten batches of Dragon-Breath Herb and ten Martial Mushrooms.

Of course, as Martial Mushroom was incredibly rare, David Jones had currently only received ten Dragon-Breath Herbs and five Martial Mushrooms as compensation.

As for the remaining five Martial Mushrooms still to be paid, the Prince probably had to replace them with other elixirs that had similar effects. As for going back on his word, David Jones didn’t think the Prince would dare break his promise.

Patting Daphne on the head, David Jones summoned Lolo and chose to advance in the Mesona Space.

…

As night deepened, the majestic and towering Umbral Imperial City was like an Evernight City, with bright lights everywhere within the city. Even at the center of Umbral, the God Dedicated Hall was still brightly lit.

Inside the resplendent grand hall, a woman with a seductive and imposing figure, exuding a blend of enticing charm and strong Domination, was dealing with affairs from all over the country, piling up like mountains on the dragon-table.

“Even a county lord can be replaced by someone from the Ghost Hunter Guild, leading to the fall of fifteen cities. What use is there in having someone like the lord of Rillfort Mansion!”

Having said that, the imposing and mature lady furiously threw the report she was holding onto the floor.

“Your Majesty, do you need me to lead the Heaven-Demon Guard to clean up Rillfort Mansion?” A cold, lifeless voice suddenly echoed.

In the blink of an eye, a figure hidden in the darkness, whose face could not be seen, only the blood-red armor on their body, abruptly appeared above the grand hall, then knelt on one knee.

From the moment the armored figure appeared, all things in the world seemed to be drawn to his presence, and even the raging empress gradually calmed down.

“Heaven Ghost, you have more important matters to attend to. Leave the minor rebellion of a single county to the Earth Demon Guards to handle,” Joan Lindwood uttered with lightly parted red lips.

Even as the grand Empress of Umbral, she still maintained a certain level of respect for the highly esteemed late-stage Venerable powerhouses under her command.

“Understood.”

The mind of Heaven Ghost stirred, and a mystic mirror suddenly appeared on the dragon table.

“Your Majesty, there is news from Prince Greventry, whom you had previously instructed me to monitor.”

Jones Lindwood’s forehead, with its thick and long horns, flashed with a dark gleam, and the memorials previously thrown on the floor instantly turned to ash.

Then she picked up the mystic mirror on the table, her golden-hued eyes moving away from the mountainous pile of memorials.

“Convey my commands, all officials in Greventry County colluding with Ghost Hunter Guild are to be executed, and have the Earth Demon Guards thoroughly investigate the other eight counties of Rillfort Mansion.

In addition, notify the Blood Sanctum Clan to change both the Mansion Lord of Rillfort and their Clan Head for me, otherwise they better not mind if I directly appoint new ones myself,” she ordered.

“Yes!” Heaven Ghost obediently responded, his blood-colored armor vanishing from sight.

Seeing the matter settled, Joan Lindwood’s right eye pupil swirled with dark Runes, and the dim mystic mirror quietly lit up.

Scenes began to emerge on the mirror, with David Jones’s face unexpectedly appearing on the very first scene, alongside his personal identity information.

The moment Joan Lindwood gazed upon David Jones, her heart skipped a beat, her eyes reflecting sheer disbelief as she looked into the mirror.

“Am I not the only favored one of the Dragon God?”

Oblivious to Theodore Lindwood’s narration within the mystic mirror, Joan Lindwood raised her right hand to cover her ample chest as if only by doing so could she still the rapidly beating heart within.

As an inheritor of the Dragon-Wielding Power, even now, separated by the information within the Spirit Realm, Joan Lindwood could still sense the strong allure emanating from David Jones; his existence seemed to be the missing piece of a crucial puzzle in her long life.

If she could complete this puzzle by cultivating the Great Path with David Jones, perhaps in the not-so-distant future, for the first time in thousands of years, the great Umbral might witness the rise of two new Ghost Deity powerhouses capable of changing dynasties.

It took a long while before Joan Lindwood came back to her senses, refocusing her attention on the content of the Spirit Realm on the mirror.

Seeing that her brother’s Hemorrhagic Fever was finally cured, a gratified smile appeared on Joan Lindwood’s face. But as the images in the mirror kept flickering, her brows began to furrow tightly.

It was ridiculous. David Jones was merely a Ghost King, and her own brother dared to disregard all the ministers as nothing, offering the title of prince!!!

Moreover, since David Jones was one of the Dragon God’s favored ones, exposing him to the Thirteen Sacred Clans through the award of a princely title would be more of a loss than a gain!

With this thought, Joan Lindwood’s fingers twitched slightly, and a message she deemed free of personal bias immediately appeared on the mirror before quietly disappearing.

“We’ll discuss the title of prince later. For now, I can appoint him as Medical Officer and royal supplicant, and grant him the title of Dragon Duke.”

After doing all of this, Joan Lindwood put away the mystic mirror in her hand, her mature and attractive face revealing a trace of eagerness to try.
