Chapter 6031 Heaven Dragon Law Domain
“Palace master?”
Long Chen couldn’t help but let out a startled cry when he saw the visitor.
It was none other than the palace master of the High Firmament Academy. He looked to be in his thirties and was built like an iron tower, radiating the oppressive presence of a mountain.
What stunned Long Chen even more was that the palace master had already stepped into the Sovereign Lord realm—and not just barely. The Sovereign flame fluctuations coming from him were stronger than any true Sovereign Lord Long Chen had ever encountered.
Long Chen could hardly believe it. What secret was he hiding to allow such a meteoric rise in power?
On the palace master’s back was a sword, and it was none other than the High Firmament Divine Sword, the karmic luck divine weapon of the High Firmament Academy. This weapon, which was responsible for maintaining the karmic luck of the entire academy, had actually been brought here.
The palace master looked Long Chen up and down. His cold, stoic face finally cracked into a smile as he clapped Long Chen on the shoulder with force.
“Well done!” he praised.
Long Chen’s body trembled as a vast power surged into him. He instantly understood this was a test and didn’t resist.
“Hahaha, good! No wonder you have the guts to declare war against the ten thousand races. To have such power in the Heaven Saint realm, you are qualified!” The palace master laughed delightedly.
Although the palace master wouldn’t directly probe Long Chen’s secrets, this simple test was enough to gauge Long Chen’s general power, and the result exceeded expectations.
“I’m worried about the upcoming tribulation,” said Long Chen, a trace of guilt in his voice. “Lord Brahma’s forces and the ten thousand races won’t let me get through it peacefully. I had no other choice but to ask for the academy’s help. I’ll be counting on you, palace master...”
“What are you talking about?” The palace master cut him off. “You’re a member of the High Firmament Academy. If you’re in trouble, who else would you turn to?”
The palace master paused then added, “That said, the sweeping elder informed me that Lord Brahma has not emerged from seclusion. There's no need for the sweeping elder to act personally, so he sent me to protect you.”
Long Chen let out a quiet breath of relief. The sweeping elder’s judgment confirmed Long Chen’s suspicions: he was someone who could stand on equal footing with Lord Brahma. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to say such a thing.
And not only had the sweeping elder sent the palace master, he had also entrusted him with the High Firmament Divine Sword. So, everything was under control.
“Palace master, your cultivation base...” Long Chen asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
The palace master smiled faintly. “This era may belong to your generation, but there are still some special existences who can ride the wave of the nine heavens. I was lucky enough to be one of them, all thanks to the sweeping elder. Without his help, I wouldn’t have been able to catch this wave, and I would’ve missed this era entirely. Don’t be too surprised—though people like me are rare, the nine heavens are vast and full of miracles. You’ll definitely encounter more people like me.”
Special existences? Long Chen suddenly thought of his grandfather, Luo Zichuan. Palace master Qingyu had said that once Luo Zichuan emerged from seclusion, he would also be a Sovereign Lord.
The palace master continued, “The sweeping elder sent me here because there is another thing I have to do for you. Bring me to see the leader here.”
Without hesitation, Long Chen brought the palace master into the silver Ten Thousand Dragon Nest.
When Di Fengqing saw the palace master, his heart shook. He stared in disbelief.
“This noble Sovereign blood, this holy dragon soul, you are... a Sovereign descendant?” Di Fengqing asked with a quivering voice.
Although Di Fengqing himself was a descendant of the sovereign dragon race, he was merely from a common branch. The palace master’s bloodline and spiritual might, on the other hand, caused his very soul to tremble. Only a true Sovereign descendant could possess such pressure.
A Sovereign descendant was a dragon who had inherited a Dragon Sovereign’s blood and soul. However, the sweeping elder had sealed these within the palace master long ago.
As a result, the palace master had cultivated using only the ordinary dragon bloodline. But even so, his might was overwhelming.
But with the changes in the nine heavens, the seals on his Sovereign blood and soul had started to stir and awaken on their own. This was the true reason for his surge in power.
“I know nothing about my origin. That’s why I must go to the Sovereign Domain—to uncover the truth,” said the palace master.
“The Sovereign Domain? But no one even knows where it is,” said Di Fengqing. “The key to entering it lies in the Heaven Dragon Law Domain—the strongest of all the Dragon Domains. Their power surpasses the sum of every other Dragon Domain combined. But according to what I’ve heard, even though they possess the key, they still haven’t managed to open the Sovereign Domain. We also rarely interact with the Heaven Dragon Law Domain. Of course, they also look down on weaker Dragon Domains, so...”
In the end, Di Fengqing became a bit embarrassed and stopped his explanation.
Only then did Long Chen learn that even the powerful Nine Peak Dragon Domain was insignificant in the eyes of the Heaven Dragon Law Domain. The latter’s strength was probably beyond his imagination.
Then again, the dragon race had once ruled the ten thousand races, and their legacy had never truly been severed. Of course, their supreme domain still existed.
According to Di Fengqing, the Heaven Dragon Law Domain looked down on other Dragon Domains. In fact, they were not even qualified to set foot inside the Heaven Dragon Law Domain.
“You carry the aura of a Sovereign descendant. There’s no doubt you belong to the highest lineage of the sovereign dragon race,” said Di Fengqing respectfully. “The Heaven Dragon Law Domain has several noble bloodlines from the sovereign race. If you went there to acknowledge your heritage, you would be able to pass easily. But if you go under our name, they will reject you outright. I believe you’ll have to go on your own.”
Di Fengqing was very respectful toward the palace master. It seemed he knew the palace master’s origin or at least had some suspicions.
“It’s not about returning to my bloodline,” the palace master replied calmly. “The sweeping elder simply said I had to go to the Sovereign Domain before the tribulations arrived. As for the reason, I don’t know. I’m just following his orders.”
The palace master wasn’t interested in joining them. After all, he had always cherished his freedom and had no desire to be bound.
Long Chen was stunned. The sweeping elder had even arranged something like this for the palace master. But why hadn’t the Primal Chaos Dragon Sovereign said anything to him?
In fact, it had been a long time since Long Chen had heard the Primal Chaos Dragon Sovereign’s voice. He had tried calling out multiple times, but there was no response. He couldn’t help but feel worried.
“Alright, let’s head to the Heaven Dragon Law Domain,” the palace master said.
Having obtained the coordinates, the palace master departed with Long Chen.
