Chapter 672 - 666: The Only Keystone - Dragon Emperor and Earth

In the vast cosmos, a colossal and boundless Divine Dragon roamed freely in the Vacuum Domain.

Even a supermassive asteroid belt appeared insignificant as a handful of gravel in the presence of this Divine Dragon.

It effortlessly broke through the asteroid belt, with all asteroids and planetary remnants shattering into dust upon impact with its dragon scales, swiftly dispersing without a trace.

Upon close inspection, one would find that the dragon’s eyes were actually two massive stars, emitting endless light and heat.

And beneath the dragon’s chin, there was something akin to a Dragon Ball, suspended above a white Reverse Scale, slowly rotating.

Only when the distance is sufficiently closed would one realize that the "Dragon Ball" on the Reverse Scale was actually a genuine Life Planet!

This was the ancestral land of the Dragon Civilization at the Tenth Demon Nest.

On this planet, governance, ideology, culture, and spirit were unified, and the highest authority was known as the "Dragon Emperor."

At this moment, in front of the Dragon Emperor, stood three humanoid beings in white robes, engaged in what seemed to be a heated argument.

"The price you offer is too high. We can afford it, but we don’t want to be the fool here."

The leader of the white-robed figures didn’t look pleased. He stood before the Dragon Emperor, head held high, and said indignantly, "Your Majesty’s appetite is too big!"

"Every member of the Superpower Civilization is purebred and cannot be used as bargaining chips for breeding your offspring."

"The Divine Court’s pressure is too great, and we do not intend to create a subspecies of humans for the time being."

"Giving you the coordinates of that planet is already our bottom line!"

Evidently, the Dragon Civilization and the Superpower Civilization were engaged in a negotiation.

The previously aggressive and unyielding Dragon Emperor’s pupils contracted upon hearing the term "Divine Court," hesitating momentarily and finding it difficult to decide.

At this time, another slightly shorter white-robed person added, "You should know that an Advanced Dragon Race member once appeared on the planet we offer as a bargaining chip."

"Based on our information channels, we can now confirm with one hundred percent certainty that the Advanced Dragon did not undergo any postnatal cultivation or enhancement. It is a naturally born Middle Rank God with a purity of bloodline that is unimaginable, either through fortunate atavism, gaining the Primordial Dragon’s legacy, or through a dual mutation of genes and soul, born with the potential of Upper Rank Deity!"

"Such an existence..."

"If it weren’t for the fact that it conflicts with our recent strategic planning, our Superpower Civilization wouldn’t give it up. Capturing it and making it into a Superpower Keystone would yield benefits no less than gaining it through trade with you!"

With a dual mutation of genes and soul, it was originally a one in a trillion probability, all positive mutations, and on this basis, another one in a trillion possibility.

The Divine Dragon Emperor’s dark golden eyes glinted with divine light.

His divine techniques ensured that the traders from the Superpower Civilization were not lying.

One can only say...

That "naturally born Middle Rank Divine Dragon Race" might just be the chosen of the cosmic will, potentially bearing the supreme mission to overthrow the tyranny of the Divine Court from birth.

"Alright! It’s decided then."

The Dragon Emperor instantly made a decision.

His form transformed into a humanoid shape, with only a pair of dragon horns on his head showing any dragon traits.

The Dragon Emperor swept his hand, tossing three stones glowing with purple and gold to the three representatives of the Superpower Civilization.

"Three unique superpower keystones: Soul Shattering, Body Destruction, and Transmigration."

The Dragon Emperor exhibited a domineering demeanor, seemingly unconcerned about the other party reneging, presenting the goods first, and then beckoned with his finger, "I don’t need a mate; my harem doesn’t lack human females."

"The coordinates?"

"Hand them over."

The three negotiating representatives of the Superpower Civilization cautiously held the purple-gold stones in their hands.

The stones immediately lost their luster, becoming plain and ordinary once they reached their palms.

After confirming their authenticity, they quickly stowed them away.

These stones, known to Earthlings as "Victory Stones," could help intelligent life with a certain level of spiritual power and soul intensity to awaken their superpowers.

In the Superpower Civilization, superpowers were divided into two kinds.

One is Unique Abilities.

The other is Non-unique Abilities.

Although their compatibility with these keystones is extremely low, it does not mean the value of the three unique keystones is diminished in any way.

Otherwise, the Dragon Emperor with his broad view wouldn’t have collected them, let alone used them as bargaining chips.

The three exchanged glances for a moment, before one stepped forward to present a small, square, white cube to the Dragon Emperor.

"This is the coordinate of the Earth Civilization, where the naturally born Middle Rank Divine Dragon Race was once the pet of the Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan and later carried out missions ordered by the Prophet Ma Ran."

"We have recently been working on recalling superpowers scattered across various laboratories, specifically those with Unique Abilities. There are many troublesome matters to handle in the process, so we won’t elaborate further."

"Pleasant cooperation, goodbye!"

That divine creature?

Pet?

The choice of words sparked a fierce flame in the Dragon Emperor’s eyes.

In the next moment, the three white-robed figures’ expressions changed dramatically, their silhouettes gradually fading and disappearing.

The Dragon Emperor’s expression turned solemn, his gaze dark and gloomy.

Because...

He knew that those three negotiators from the Superpower Civilization were not fleeing due to his anger.

As soon as they mentioned "Earth" and "Ma Ran," a strong, almost tangible malice surged from all directions, nearly filling the entire ancestral domain of the Dragon Race!

"Feeling suicidal, worm?"

A voice filled with a rich, bloody aura reverberated painfully through the Dragon Emperor’s skull.

Without a doubt.

He could now confirm with certainty that the unmasked malevolence came from Earth!

"We’ve been played."

The Dragon Emperor cracked a sinister grin, "I wondered why those rats would make a deal that only incurred losses. So they were waiting here, huh..."

"A remote place indeed, yet such a powerful entity exists!"

"That’s it..."

"Otherwise, why would mere humans compel the prodigies of my Dragon Race to submit?"

"But, is this being the Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan or the Prophet Ma Ran?"

As his words trailed off, a beam of light gathered before his eyes, gradually forming into a dragon humanoid, kneeling with humility: "My emperor, shall we abandon the current plan and instead attack the Superpower Civilization and the Earth Civilization?"

"No."

The Dragon Emperor shook his finger, "The Superpower Civilization doesn’t need retaliatory action at all."

"Those self-proclaimed Human Race mice are cowardly yet arrogant."

"If they weren’t pushed to the brink by the Divine Court, perhaps they wouldn’t have approached us at all."

"The Divine Court will take care of them."

At this, the Dragon Emperor tossed the white cube he held to the dragon humanoid formed by light, speaking meaningfully: "Act alongside ’Right.’"

"Go to Earth, and bring that newly-born kin back."

"Additionally..."

"If Earth Civilization doesn’t have many top-tier powerhouses, then shatter Earth, eradicate humanity, all as a warning."

"The dignity of the Dragon Race shall not be defied!"
