I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 1443: Chapter 1445: Dragon Emperor’s Dominating Art Chapter 1443: Chapter 1445: Dragon Emperor’s Dominating Art Song Jian saw a sphere of light, which was actually the portal to the Dragon Palace Treasure. It was a teleportation light gate, but because it was so far away, it looked like a light sphere. As they got closer, they discovered that it was a gigantic light gate over five meters high and more than three meters wide, similar to a colossal circular mirror, quietly hovering in the void, shrouded in white mist.

“Senior brother, this is it. Let’s go in!” Xin Ling said joyfully.

The Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm was an infinite time loop secret realm forged by powerful beings from over a million years. This period was one of the most splendid times, with treasures continuously being uncovered and prodigies from all races emerging one after another. Even the war that annihilated countless races was included within this stretch of time. Those who entered and survived always found some gains. During the previous opening, the Imperial Sword Sect had obtained a large number of techniques from a million years ago. It was said that even the Chaos Sword Canon had only been a fragment in their possession until they completed it after entering the secret realm.

“The prodigy of the Human Race, hmph, dares to enter the Dragon Palace Treasure. I will kill you!” The Dragon Clan youth from before suddenly flew out of the white mist. Seeing Song Jian and Xin Ling standing in front of the portal to the Dragon Palace Treasure, he was immediately inflamed with rage.

The Dragon Clan had been annihilated by the Human Race in the past. Now, only a few survivors had fled into the starry sky, barely clinging to life. Ao Tian had overheard his clan’s elders talking and learned about the opening of the Dragon Palace Treasure. That’s why he had secretly returned here, hoping to retrieve the Dragon Emperor Treasure Pearl. Otherwise, how would he–a young dragon in the early stages of the Legendary Realm–dare to return alone to the Human Territory?

The white mist could obscure vision but couldn’t completely suppress the perception of the strong. A battle here with the human prodigy would inevitably attract the attention of the guardians behind him.

The Dragon Palace Treasure was concealed within a hidden semi-dimensional plane, constructed by a Dragon Clan powerhouse. Aside from when it was open, even gods couldn’t detect the portal’s location.

Moreover, the Dragon Palace Treasure was suppressed by an array that only allowed entry to those under the Legendary Realm’s power level, with peak Legendary Realm warriors being the highest-level allowed. Demi-God level beings couldn’t enter.

If the human prodigy really dared to venture inside, not just him, other races would encounter him, and they wouldn’t let them off either.

The Dragon Clan youth Ao Tian snorted coldly and leaped into the light gate, disappearing from sight.

“That was the Dragon Clan youth, Ao Tian. He obtained the Dragon Emperor Treasure Pearl in the Dragon Palace Treasure and comprehended the Dragon Emperor’s Arrogant Sky Secret. A thousand years later, he also advanced to become a god-level powerhouse…” Xin Ling whispered.

“God-level powerhouse…” Song Jian paused, then as if he had thought of something, he laughed and said, “Do you think if I killed him here, would he still become a god-level powerhouse in the future?”

“Although the secret realm captures a segment of history, whatever we do here won’t change history. If you kill him now, Ao Tian will just disappear, and the Dragon Emperor Treasure Pearl would just benefit others. When time ends, everything will return to how it was, trapped in an endless loop…” Xin Ling said as she glanced at Song Jian.

“However, if you’re capable, you could wait for Ao Tian to obtain the Dragon Emperor Treasure Pearl and comprehend the Dragon Emperor’s Arrogant Sky Secret before killing him. Perhaps you could then extract the Dragon Emperor’s Arrogant Sky Secret, which is a Legendary Realm technique not inferior to the Chaos Sword Canon, and also the complete version…” Xin Ling smiled and said, “There are records in the Imperial Sword Sect of people who have done this before. But after Ao Tian comprehended the Dragon Emperor’s Arrogant Sky Secret, he instantly broke through to the peak of the Legendary Realm. The Imperial Sword Sect disciple at the time was only at the peak of third-tier combat power, and since he was alone, he eventually gave up!”

“Heh, let’s see what happens. The Dragon Emperor’s Arrogant Sky Secret, just by the name, you can tell it’s a Dragon Clan technique. Even if it drops, I might not be able to cultivate it. Let’s forget it…” Song Jian laughed.

Just then, the Black Dragon Kama communicated with him, “Silly Song Jian, if you can’t cultivate it, can give it to me. I’m also from the Dragon Clan, I can definitely cultivate it!”

A flash of realization crossed Song Jian’s face. Although Kama was a Western Golden Giant Dragon, it was clear that Ao Tian was an Eastern Giant Dragon. Although both species were called the Dragon Clan, their racial differences were significant!

“Can you really cultivate it?” Song Jian couldn’t help but ask curiously. At the moment, Kama was on the threshold of stepping into the Legendary Realm. With her age, it would not be possible for her to have such strength, even with the inheritance of blood. It required hundreds or even thousands of years for her to possibly step into the true Legendary Realm.

But following Song Jian, they had encountered one opportunity after another; not only had her strength greatly increased, but her bloodline also had progressed, advancing from the original Black Dragon lineage to the sovereignty of the Western Giant Dragons, the Golden Giant Dragons.

Western Dragon kind did not have the concept of cultivation. They relied solely on physical fitness, and their strength naturally increased with age. They never cultivated techniques.

But it was different for Eastern Giant Dragons. Like the Demon Clan and the Human Race, they could cultivate, and the Dragon Emperor’s Dominating Art was an ultimate technique that only those of the Dragon Emperor’s direct lineage were qualified to practice!

“I think I can cultivate it!” Black Dragon Kama said seriously within the Pet Space.

“Alright, we’ll try if there’s a chance. If it doesn’t drop, don’t blame me!” Song Jian shook his head and communicated back.

Although the peak of the Legendary Realm was powerful, Song Jian believed that if he encountered the opponent, it would be an even match. If he could launch a surprise attack, his chances of winning would be even greater. Moreover, after obtaining the Dragon Emperor Treasure Pearl, the opponent’s sudden surge in power would require an adaptation period during which his full Legendary Realm peak strength couldn’t be fully harnessed. Song Jian felt his odds were quite good. Killing Ao Tian shouldn’t be difficult; the challenge was whether he could extract the Dragon Emperor’s Arrogant Sky Secret right away!

Seeing Song Jian deep in thought and silent, Xin Ling exclaimed, “Senior brother, you wouldn’t really be considering how to kill him and obtain the Dragon Emperor’s Arrogant Sky Secret, would you? It’s impossible. The Dragon Palace Treasure is his home turf. Even one-on-one, you wouldn’t stand a chance against him, not to mention there are so many other races inside!”

“Enough of that, let’s not indulge in wild speculation. Let’s go, we don’t have much time!” Song Jian patted Xin Ling’s head and smiled.

In the brief moment they had stood there, already a dozen people had entered the Dragon Palace Treasure. If they didn’t go in soon, the good items might all be snatched up by others.

Xin Ling nodded, and the two leaped into the light gate. They were like two droplets of water falling into a pond, causing a few ripples, but soon, the light gate returned to its calm state, resembling once again the circular mirror.
