The young man had sword-like eyebrows and sparkling eyes, his face exuded valiance, and what made all the Mermaid Clan warriors tremble with fear, were the two small, tree-branch-like horns on his forehead. These horns were only three inches long, bronze in color, and flickered with an unusual divine light.
"The, the Dragon Clan!" The Mermaid Commander felt his throat go dry and his face showed a look of fear, his Domain Power began to tremble for a moment before slowly receding.
Having a Domain Power reach one hundred meters was already considered outstanding among legendary realm powerhouses, far stronger than the previous Bovine Clan member, but in front of this young man, the Mermaid Commander didn’t even dare to deploy his Domain Power, which showed how deep the residual power of the Dragon Clan intimidated these members of the Sea Clan.
"My Lord!" The Mermaid Commander immediately knelt down, kneeling in the void without daring to raise his head. Behind him, a large group of Mermaid warriors also knelt down. Capable of hovering in the void as if on solid ground, these Mermaid warriors must have at least third order Combat Power.
"My name is Ao Tian, I came specifically for the Dragon Palace Treasure. You lowly bloodline creatures also dare to covet the Dragon Palace Treasure, you deserve death!" Ao Tian glared coldly at the group of Mermaids as he rebuked them.
"My Lord, spare our lives!" The Mermaid Commander trembled all over. The faint Dragon Might emanating from the other party was a natural bloodline suppression. Although the Mermaid Commander had reached the peak of the Legendary Realm, and Ao Tian had at most mid-legendary realm strength, differing by two minor realms, the Mermaid Commander knew well that if a dispute arose, it would be a trivial matter for the other party to kill them.
All of the Sea Clan, every one of them, was under the command of the Dragon Clan. Facing any order from a member of the Dragon Clan, none dared to disobey, even if the other was merely a child with first order Combat Power.
Because within the bloodline genes of all Sea Clan members, there was a gene that carried a fear of the Dragon Clan. Under the pressure of Dragon Might, the strength of the Sea Clan couldn’t be exerted even to one percent of their capability, which was why the Dragon Clan had been able to rule over the Sea Clan for tens of thousands of years.
If it weren’t for the Dragon Clan almost being wiped out in the conflict with the Human Race, clans like the Mermaid Clan would never have been able to appear on the surface of the sea and would instead be still deep in the ocean, doing the lowest and most menial tasks like mining and farming.
"Hmph, the Dragon Clan has suffered great disasters; now is the time when we need people. I’ll spare you this once..." Ao Tian snorted coldly, casually pointed at the Mermaid Commander and his two deputies and said, "The three of you, follow me into the Dragon Palace to retrieve the treasure. When the time comes, not only will your disrespect be pardoned, but you will also receive a reward!"
"Thank you, my Lord!" The Mermaid Commander hurriedly agreed, and after hesitating for a moment, asked, "Just the three of us, my Lord? Although these warriors I command are of lower strength, they are all soldiers who have fought a hundred battles and can prevail even against an enemy ten times their number. Bringing them along will surely be of help to you!"
"Hmph, those who haven’t reached the strength of the Legendary Realm will only be going to their deaths if they go inside. Have them wait outside, ready to provide backup at any moment!" Ao Tian looked dismissively at the soldiers behind the Mermaid Commander then turned and flew towards the pillar of light, "Keep up, the Dragon Palace Treasure is about to open!"
...
In the starry sky, on a planet that had been occupied by the Void Insect Clan, stood a palace atop its tallest mountain. In the plaza before the palace, countless Insects in black carapaces were shrieking and fighting one another. These were newly born members of the Insect Clan, undergoing combat training, but the pale green blood that spilled during their training made it seem as though they were in a real life-and-death struggle.
Just then, a shadow swept across the sky. A creature over three meters long with three sharp, spear-like tails fluttering behind it from the Void Insect Clan descended in front of the plaza.
Boom!
Inside the palace, a powerful aura suddenly erupted as an Insect Clan Commander flew out and knelt before the landed Void Insect Clan member.
"Female Marshal!" Kaza knelt on one knee before the Void Insect Clan member with three bone tails, a look of admiration on his face. He bowed his head and said, "The Female Marshal descends, may I ask for your orders?"
"Kaza, are you familiar with the savage planet?" A black aura encircled the Female Marshal like a long dragon. It stared at the Insect Clan leader before it and asked directly.
"Female Marshal, the savage planet was previously under the rule of the Dragon Clan, but now it has been defeated by the Human Race and falls within the Human Territory. However, after defeating the Dragon Clan, the human race left only the Destruction Army to guard it. The commander of the Destruction Army possesses divine-level strength; within three moves, he defeated the East Sea Dragon King and took his head!" Kaza spoke respectfully, "I witnessed the great battle from the sidelines but did not engage in conflict with the human race!"
"Heh, you certainly have the nerve!" The Female Marshal of the Insect Clan let out a slight chuckle. On her stern face, there was an unexpected flirtatiousness akin to that of a young girl. She tossed something she had been holding in front of Kaza, laughing, "This is the head of the Dragon King of the East Sea. I killed it with just one move!"
"What, the Dragon King of the East Sea? A god-level powerhouse..." Kaza looked at the ferocious head that rolled in front of it, a trace of surprise flickered across its face as it hastily flattered, "Female Marshal is mighty, the commander of the Dragon Destruction Legion is no match for you..."
"Enough with the compliments," the Female Marshal waved her hand and said, "I’ve obtained some information from the head of the Dragon King from the Sea Clan; the Dragon Palace Treasure is about to open soon. Take a few people, and go seize the Dragon Palace Treasure for me, remember, there’s a Dragon Emperor’s Dragon Pearl inside; you must bring it back to me, got it?"
"By your command, I shall not fail," Kaza quickly responded.
"Hmm, very good," the Female Marshal nodded in satisfaction and said, "One must be at least in the Legendary Realm to qualify for entry. See to it, and if you handle it well, I will purify your bloodline for you once!"
To Kaza’s surprise, a look of ecstasy immediately crossed its face, and it bowed repeatedly, saying, "Please rest assured, Female Marshal, I will certainly complete the mission!"
...
In the depths of space, an enormous star beast, more than ten kilometers in body length, casually wandered through the void. The star beasts were few in number and had extremely long lifespans. Adult star beasts survived by devouring stars, and it was common for entire star systems to be destroyed when an adult star beast consumed a sun, which is why their appearance would lead to a collective hunt by all races.
A star beast possessed the power of the Legendary Realm at birth. Once mature, they reached Demi-God Level. And after tens of thousands of years, star beasts acquired god-level strength. The star beast in question was just over a thousand years old and was still considered a child among its kind.
The star beast, which had been wandering with its eyes closed, seemed to sense something. Its nostrils fluttered slightly as it opened its eyes, looking in a specific direction.
"The scent of treasure, lots of treasure..."
With a flash of white light, the star beast’s massive form vanished, and in its place stood a human child with an odd appearance. The child was eyebrowless, with bulging eyes and a large mouth, looking somewhat ugly.
"Treasure, abundant treasure, if I could devour it, maybe I could enter the hibernation period ahead of time..." The child muttered to itself, staring into the distance of the void with a hint of a smile on its face.
Whoosh~
The child transformed into a streak of white light and disappeared instantaneously.
...
The opening of the Dragon Palace Treasure attracted the attention of many. Song Jian watched as people continually flew towards the column of light. Those who hadn’t reached the Legendary Realm didn’t even dare to approach, merely watching from a distance, while warriors of the Legendary Realm had no qualms about getting closer to the light column to take a look.
"Almost all are legends, and so far, I haven’t seen any demi-god or god-level powerhouses appear!" Song Jian thought to himself.
Just then, a voice full of surprise came from the distance, "Senior brother, senior brother, you’re actually here too! This is great!"
