Chapter 414 - The Twin Dragon Mount’s Secret

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

“In fact, City Master, when you asked us to plan for Dragon City, we already discovered that something was wrong with the Twin Dragon Mount,” Ninth Uncle, who wore a yellow Daoist robe and also carried a compass, said.

“Huh?”

Ji Ye waited for them to continue.

“Our plan was to slightly heighten the Eagle Peak so that we can get a higher level of ‘gale power’ and to slightly lower the Dragon Peak so that it will be easier for everybody to go up and down.

“However, after the prospect with the probe that’s transformed from a Stone of Civilization, we found that the Eagle Peak’s and the Dragon Peak’s central areas are harder than we thought and that they seem to be releasing hidden energy waves!” Yi He said.

The Taming Compass could detect energy waves; it could even detect the radiation on the Snake Monkey Island.

That was also the reason why they found the anomalies of the Dragon Peak ahead of everybody else.

“After this ‘earthquake’, even more powerful energy waves had surfaced.

“It means that there’s bound to be secrets on the two mountains!” Ninth Uncle said.

He was born in the 1910s, but he had learned a lot of modern knowledge and terms after spending a long time with the players.

“Secrets!”

Ji Ye’s heart stirred.

He turned around and looked at the Eagle Peak that was as high as the Dragon Peak.

He had already discovered that the Eagle Peak looked like a sitting Buddha.

He had the speculation mainly because the Eagle Men and the Golden Condors looked a lot like Garuda from the Buddhist stories.

Buddhism came from Sandia and wasn’t spread to Chidragon until the Han Dynasty. When the authorities accepted it, they established a White Horse Temple, which Dragon City could already manifest. It could purge the power of demons!

In the tales of Sandia, Garuda, which the Gold-Winged Eagles were based on, fed on dragons. It could eat a King Naga and five hundred poison dragons in a day.

Although the “dragons” in the Buddhist scriptures didn’t have claws and were essentially big snakes, they were combined with dragons in Chidragon, and many people thought that Garuda was a powerful beast that ate dragons.

It was also the reason why many natives of Chidragon weren’t satisfied with Buddhism.

By Ji Ye’s estimation, the Land of Inheritance must’ve been opened a long time ago, and the connection between “Garuda” and “dragons” might be from the Land of Inheritance.

If the Eagle Man was truly transformed from a monk or an Eagle Man, the Twin Dragon Island might have been transformed from a dragon!

They might have been enemies!

It could also explain why the Black Serpent was fighting the Golden Condors.

However, since the Black Serpent crushed the Golden Condors and swallowed their eggs, the tale of Garuda eating dragons might not be true.

Besides, after he turned into a Flood Dragon, his roar put all the Golden Condors into a panic.

It was hard to say who was whose food!

“Perhaps the speculation on the forum is correct.

“The settlement of every species may be related to a Transcendent creature that belonged to the species or civilization!”

After hearing Ji Ye’s thought, Lin Dong turned solemn and said, “That’s a high possibility. It also explains the myriad of resources in a settlement. Those resources are, in fact, all from the bodies of the dead Transcendent creatures…”

Yi He’s face was slightly pale.

He was rather scared of the truth.

Could there be evil purposes behind the Land of Inheritance that seemed to be friendly towards the players?

For example, did a super civilization or species gather representatives from other civilizations and species and let them grow to Transcendent first, before they were asked to hunt each other like a game?

“There’s no need to presume the worst. In fact, to some extent, those Transcendent creatures created the initial environment for the representatives from their species and civilization to live…”

Ji Ye shook his head.

There was no telling what the purpose of the Land of Inheritance was yet.

To be honest, he was the only one who had entered Transcendent Rank-1 in the entire Dragon City.

Although Transcendent Rank-1 was a major leap from the Extraordinary level, Ji Ye didn’t think that he was strong enough, considering that one drop of Legendary True Blood had crushed the green Flood Dragon’s body.

His black Flood Dragon could be extended to about thirty meters at most.

However, the two mountains in front of his eyes were both a thousand meters tall. Even if only part of them belonged to two Transcendent (or even Legendary) creatures, they must’ve been much stronger than him!

Therefore, he might as well focus on the reverberation between the Dragon Peak and the Legendary True Blood.

“Is there any way to determine the source of the waves?” Ji Ye asked.

“Well, let me have a try!” Yi He said.

He grabbed the Taming Compass and cast a spell to perform divination!

Immediately, the three layers of the Taming Compass emitted a golden light, and their needles kept spinning.

However, the needles didn’t stop spinning at all.

Ninth Uncle, Gongsun Sheng, and Qiao Daoqing were all good at divination.

However, their expertise was restricted to the Extraordinary level. Meanwhile, Ji Ye had a talent skill in divination and the Mystic Tortoise Shell that contained Transcendent power!

Pa!

Seeing that the Extraordinary Taming Compass couldn’t point at the target, Yi He gritted his teeth and took out the vintage Mystic Tortoise Shell.

He then bit his finger and smeared his blood on the shell.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

The shell absorbed Yi He’s blood as if it were alive, and a gray glowing layer surfaced.

The gray light lasted for a while, but he didn’t get any result. It failed as the Taming Compass did.

Clearly, the power was still not enough!

“Infer!”

At this moment, Yi He spoke softly.

The blood surged out from his finger and covered the shell. Also, the red blood was covered in the glow that represented talent skill.

Crack!

This time, the Mystic Tortoise Shell finally reacted. After a creak, a shocking crack that split up the shell appeared on it!

“Found it!

“We can get as close to the core of the waves as possible in such a way…”

Yi He’s face was pale. He translated the route that was displayed on the tortoiseshell to everyone.

After a moment of hesitation, he added in a low voice, “Also, if the City Master is going down, the odds of success will be higher!”

As expected, the power that Yi He controlled wasn’t just about inferring a route.

The Mystic Tortoise Shell was a Transcendent item, but the matter to be inferred probably involved Legendary beings.

However, he was able to infer the rough position of the target, which indicated the power of his talent. It was probably of a higher quality than that of Zhong Zhou, the beta tester from the Musical House settlement!

The only shortcoming was that it consumed too much vitality.

After only a single inference, the blood that flowed from his finger could’ve filled half a basin. His hair was turning gray too.

Fortunately, he was on the Land of Inheritance. He would probably be killed immediately if he were to use the talent on Earth!

“Huh, the Frigid Water?”

After Gongsun Sheng flew the cloud to the “entrance” that Yi He pointed out on his map, Ji Ye saw the Frigid Water on the top of the Twin Dragon Mount that was occupied by the Commander-level Black Serpent at the beginning.

This lake was full of water from which Extraordinary substance had been emitting. On the other hand, the walls of the lake were full of Frigid Iron, which was an important material for forging in Dragon City!

However, because of the earthquake just now, nobody was working here.

Earlier, Dragon City had already investigated the place and found that the lake was rather deep.

Also, the deeper one went down, the lower the temperature and the greater the pressure would be. Although the water was not frozen thanks to the special power, it contained all kinds of branches down below.

Even Ruan Xiaoer, as the commander of the navy, couldn’t swim too deep in the Frigid Water.

Of course, there were ways if they were truly determined to explore it.

However, just like how they treated the Black Mud and the Silver Liquid, to prevent the origin of the resources from being destroyed, Dragon City never investigated the cause of the resources.

But at this moment, because of the reverberation of the Legendary True Blood, Ji Ye gained the idea of exploring the Frigid Water.

“Well, let me have a try!”

Ji Ye moved his hand that was glowing with the Healing talent away from Yi He’s shoulder. After all, Yi He had been partially healed.

Remembering the route on the tortoiseshell, he covered himself with Dragon Aura and then turned into a tiny black Flood Dragon that was only two meters long. He then dived straight into the Frigid Water!
