Chapter 1254: Threat 2

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“That thing is able to detect Void Creatures, it’s highly likely to be able to detect me! What should I do?!” Garen thought frantically. As a Demon Lord based on Soul Rings, even the Void Creature with three Soul Rings was completely vulnerable under the attack, so there was no way he could make it through! Even if he resisted it, it was just the equivalent of a mixture of cheese and eggs. It would be meaningless!

On the circular board, families of White Dragons began to pass through the white door along with the Dragon Whelps. Waiting further behind the dragons, Garen watched the line in front of him get shorter and shorter. As the circular board began to turn, the white door was getting closer to him already.

“Pass.”

An Elder White Dragon that was guarded by the white door casted a glance toward the few White Dragon families that were behind.

“Hurry up,” he urged impatiently.

A White Dragon family walked toward the white door.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a figure shot out from this family and fled in the distance. Even if Garen was not a practitioner of Soul Energy, he could still clearly feel the Soul Energy that broke out this time around.

This was also a Three-Soul-Ring-Void-Creature and three of his Soul Rings instantly exploded at the same time. The force that blasted out was so immense, his speed surpassed the Elder White Dragon’s in a blink of an eye, reaching a point that no creature could ever keep pace with.

“Idiot.” The Elder Dragon that had a staff in his hand barely raised his eyes. Not even moving, he just watched as the Dragon Whelp flee.

Chi!

The symbol at the top of his staff once again shot out a beam of white light. Same as the last time, it tied the Void Creature together and pulled it back in an instant. Soon enough, the black needle on the circular board pierced right through it.

“In the eyes of the great Tiamat, all guises and lurkings shall be exposed,” the Elder Dragon spoke loudly in a Draconic Language that sounded close to singing.

All the other White Dragons piously bowed their heads to show respect. Even though some of them were of selfish dragon races who would not actually fully believe in Tiamat, they still showed respect on the surface as it was as effortless as lifting a finger for them White Dragons. After all, the only one who was truly protecting them all was still Tiamat.

The group continued to move forward.

Garen watched as the white door got closer and closer. His heart was almost at the edge of his throat already.

“What should I do!?” His brain had never worked this fast as he tried to find a way to deal with the current situation.

One by one, the White Dragon families walked into the white stone door and exit from the other side, quietly waiting at the other side of the circular board.

“It’s your turn, hurry up,” the White Dragon who was guarding the door cast a cold glance at Cocoreila.

“Yes, respected Dragon Guard,” Cocoreila responded reverently, then led the way into the white door and stepped out from the other end with her Dragon Whelps bouncing along behind her.

Garen gritted his teeth and jumped in.

Chi!!

A bright white Light Beam instantly lit up the sky.

With a bang, the entire circular board shook slightly. Garen’s sight was blinded by the white light before him.

“It’s over!” A chill washed over his head as the Soul Rings in his entire body began to shake violently. As a Demon Lord, his dignity as a whole did not allow him to be killed without the slightest resistance!

“You dare to run!” Before his sight faded, he could vaguely hear the roars of the Elder Dragon.

The white light passed far in front before his eyes over ten meters from him and landed on one of the White Dragon Whelps that was attempting to sneak out the circular board.

All of a sudden, the white flame ignited and the Dragon Whelp howled in pain. It was just a blink of an eye before it burned into white ash and was blown away by the wind, disappearing into the snow.

Garen was sweating all over as he stood in the middle of the white stone door.

“Stupid, what are you still doing here? Scram!” The Dragon gave him a tail, causing Garen to almost flip over.

Instead of being angry, he was happy.

He was actually fine!!!?

“Sure enough, it worked!” Garen let out a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart as he looked at the Soul Ring deep in his soul.

On the other hand, he would turn into a native of this world completely.

In order to escape the crisis earlier on, he simply combined his Soul Ring with his body thoroughly. A combination as such was equivalent to the Demon Lord giving up his ability of reincarnation, merging himself completely within the shell of this creature.

If creatures die and Demon Lords die, Demon Lords would no longer have the right to simply transmigrate between worlds anymore.

This method was not something all Demon Lords knew, but an imprisonment law that Garen had learned from Shadow Dragon some time ago. It was said that such an imprisonment would imprison himself into this current body.

This was also the point he was confused about.

If the rules of the Shadow Dragon could be used, perhaps the other upper laws would be usable as well?

Garen had gotten through the crisis. Looking at the Dragon Guard that just pulled his tail, he climbed back to Cocoreila’s side quietly and waited as he began to simulate the other things he had just realized.

But unfortunately, body simulation practiced a lot of other things. Except for a couple of Living Secret Techniques, the others had to be modified before using due to the different laws.

“But this means that everything I’ve learned can be used, they’re all actually significant. They just require some slight modifications,” Garen’s crisis had passed, and so he felt brighter now.

“So it is very likely that this High-Dimensional Universe is able to accommodate all the laws of the Low-Dimensional Universe, but just because the laws here are more comprehensive and upper-leveled, creatures of a Low-Dimensional Universe may be incomplete. With that, this means that all the knowledge I’ve gained is not useless. I just need to perfect everything according to the rules here!”

Garen felt comfortable.

Between High-Dimensional and Low-Dimensional Universes, he originally guessed that there was just one difference in dimension. But now, the difference in gap did not seem that high anymore, perhaps only just half a dimension.

The Gods of this world represented the highest powers. They may be able to use High-Dimensional enslaved creatures, but they could not simply adjust space-time. According to his inherited memories, there were also come Gods who were able to travel through different space-time.

“This type of connection seems a bit like advanced space-time, but more powerful than an advanced universe,” Garen began to analyze indiscriminately.

After all, he really was almost caught and nearly became a skewer. This experience was something he never wanted have again. If he was to die in a frontal battle on a battlefield, he was just afraid of this powerless feeling that he could not understand.

“Alright, all families inspection has ended. You can all return now.” The Elder Dragon standing at the center ordered.

Then only did all the White Dragons heaved a sigh of relief. Fluttering their wings, they began to fly back to their nests along with their little ones.

Cocoreila was the same as well. Once again, she carried the three small Earth Dragons in her mouth as Garen and the other five Dragon Whelps followed behind. However, she was not heading back to the original nest, but she flew away from the snowy peak and toward the other white mountains in the distance.

“Mother, where are we going?” A Dragon Whelp asked innocently. It was the most courageous one who asked, the Dragon Whelp who was born the strongest. This fellow wanted to fight the second he was born, clearly, he had an active personality.

“We’re going to our original home. This is the Elder’s Peak, it’s not our home.” Cocoreila answered in a gentle tone. As she had three small Earth Dragons in her mouth, her speech was not clear at all.

“What about our father?” Another Dragon Whelp asked.

“I don’t know. We White Dragons have too many fathers already, I didn’t find out who my father was either. Lavido and I just broke up last year so perhaps you can call him Father,” Cocoreila answered quite hesitantly.

Garen rolled his eyes.

White Dragons’ marriages and relationships were not just complicated in general. Due to low fertility, one mother dragon may simultaneously mate with more than ten male dragons until she gets pregnant. Therefore, these White Dragons that were born would not usually know who their father is.

“Can I have milk?” A Dragon Whelp asked aloud.

“Go back and eat,” Cocoreila roared in response, “We’re still flying.”

She was flying slowly as she still had to take care of the Dragon Whelps.

But soon, she heard a groan. A Dragon Whelp, regardless of her consent, had rushed to her abdomen and started to suck on her teat.

White Dragons actually needed milk.

Garen learned a new point of view toward the world once again.

The group of Dragon Whelps instantly began to compete for the teats as there were only three of them so they had to take turns.

As for Garen, he was just rolling his eyes by the side. To ask him to compete for a teat with the group of brats, you could just forget about it. According to his inherited memories, although one could choose to drink one’s mother’s milk, a Dragon Whelp could always opt for meat directly.

The white snowy peaks moved underneath them slowly. No birds dated to invade this area as it was the dragon’s territory. A dragon’s prestige was enough to scare away any creature below Level Four, even weaker ones would be scared to the point they degrade.

Therefore, a large number of social creatures did not dare to invade the dragon race’s place of residence.

After Garen got through his crisis, he had begun to consider using his talent and powers to quickly improve his strength. This world was too dangerous.

He just used the laws of imprisonment to fuse himself into this body, but his soul was still too powerful for the body. If he was to encounter a soul-wise grandmaster, not to mention a God, just a human Necromancer or a high-ranked Wizard who was involved with the studies of souls, they would easily notice his abnormality or that something was off about him.

It was obvious that the Elder Dragon earlier on merely relied on the staff to use magic. As for why the Gods did not notice his abnormality, it was perhaps just a rough alarm system.

Garen suspected that the scan might have just been a mechanism of intimidation. It seemed that the Will of the Gods were watching over them but in reality, the Gods were probably not leisurely watching the White Dragon Clan’s baptism one by one. Although Tiamat was not loved by many of the good dragons, she was still respected by many dragon races. Her believers were broad. There were White Dragon Clans not only at the main plane but countless planes as well, it was practically impossible to actually attract the attention of the Gods.

“The strong incompatibility of my soul and flesh has to be solved as soon as possible! I’m still a hidden ticking time bomb staying here! I might be discovered any time!” Garen’s heart quickened at the thought of it. Unlike other places, the powerhouses who were experts in the studies of souls were too many over here. There was even a Soul God!

Once discovered as an Alien Soul, he may face a situation that was worse than death. Even possibly becoming experimental material to be dissected was considered a light case.

Moreover, the White Dragons still had to go through another baptism when they grow up. By that time, he may face such troubles. What if the Gods really did look around occasionally...

This time he got away because of pure luck, but not necessarily next time.

Garen quickly made up his mind.

In his inherited memories, the custom of the White Dragon Clan was to accept the newborn baptism of Tiamat when they reach the age of ten. This adult baptism was most likely to involve souls, so the chances of being discovered then would be much greater!

If this incompatibility problem was not solved, he would be discovered sooner or later!

“In ten years, this problem must be solved!”
