The Story Never Ends

Leaving Ryland to cultivate in the hall, Davion and Siena walked to the guest room.

"He is totally submissive to you. On top of that, I can't see any trace of resentment in his eyes. But instead, I feel his affection and attachment towards you." Siena was amused.

How can a royal dragon act so docile like that? From what she had heard, Dragons were prideful and would rather die than submit to someone. Especially, when the person was a human.

She felt her worldwide view was turning upside down ever since she met Davion. How can everything about him be extraordinary and not explainable with common sense?

"He is a cub that I rescued from some poachers not long ago in the human world. He then had been following me wholeheartedly." Davion replied shamelessly. Although he had tricked Ryland, he had indeed rescued him in a way.

"How kind of you. Nonetheless, you should be careful. I believe some powerful enemies might be looking for him." She reminded Davion. After all, it didn't make sense for a royal dragon to be left alone in an unknown world.

"I know." Davion nodded. This was why he had refrained from letting out Ryland. Despite already setting his foot into the Demon Beast World.

"Besides, can you tell me what you meant by Dark Lyeogryph belonging to your Phoenix Island?" He was curious. It seemed like Joanna's background was not so simple either.

"Humm, they are the only tribe on my island that can manipulate dual elements. But they are very few in number. From what I know, they give birth to just five descendants in a span of a hundred years." She explained.

"Who could have thought that she would be this rare?" He was astonished.

"Yeah, that's why you should take good care of her. She has horrific talent that doesn't lose out to the four major clans. I don't know what you did to be her master; I just hope that she isn't being forced." Her tone became colder.

"Haha, how could I do that?" He forced a laugh.

"It's good you understand." She didn't say anything more.

"Anyways, why don't we take a rest today? We have been through a lot." He changed the topic.

"As you say." She didn't decline it. Even though she didn't fight as much as Davion, she had lost a fair amount of her soul Qi during the battle against Hector. Thus, she needed to recover.

"You can take the room in the corner." He suggested.

"No problem." She went in and closed the door, preparing a small formation with some array flags to prevent anyone from peeping inside as well.

"What a cautious person!" Seeing her, he shook his head and entered the room where Danny was in.

***

At the same time, a group of people wearing green robes were walking on a barren land consisting of mountain peaks and nothing more. An insignia of a hurricane could be clearly seen on their backs.

Leading them was a short white-haired old man with a small mustache and green twinkling pupils. Behind him were young boys and girls who had solemn expressions on their faces.

"Elder, is there really a treasure born here?" The boy named Dillion inquired.

The old man glanced at his disciple and furrowed his brows. "I think so. I, including the other elders, noticed a powerful ray of energy clearing away the clouds and reaching the heavens near this place."

"Not only that but an unusual multicolored aura of heavens and earth was observed here. At first, we thought that this was a phenomenon caused by an expert. However, nobody came out even after a while. So, we believe that it might be a treasure." He reasoned.

"Elder, then why did you bring us all? What if it is actually a dwelling place of a dangerous master?" A girl couldn't help but question him. Was there even a need for someone so weak as them to come here?

"Haiz, Amaya, you know that we are currently in a bad situation. The Heavenly Demon Sect is giving us no room to breathe. Hence, we have no choice but to take this risk." The elder sighed.

"If it is a treasure then it is good for us. Nevertheless, if it is a powerful master, then we have to request a helping hand."

"This is the only opportunity to turn the tides in our favor." He gave them a fierce look.

"We understand." The disciples bowed with the utmost respect. Who could have thought that their elder had already foreseen such important things?

"In fact, the reason why I brought you all here was to earn the recognition of the treasure if it exists. In the central region, there are natal core artifacts and fairy artifacts that develop souls. So, after the death of the previous owner, these artifacts chose new inheritors according to their liking and talents." The elder paused there and continued.

"That's why I hand-picked the most talented disciples of our sect to increase our probability of obtaining it. Let's wish that someone among you is the destined individual."

"Elder, we will try our best." They bore a heavy responsibility on their shoulders as the future of their sect depended on this mission.

"Humm, but don't get discouraged if it fails." The elder smiled.

Even if the result was disappointing, he had long since planned to send them far away. In this way, his disciples would be protected, and the inheritance of their Great Wind Sect would pass on.

"Zachary, when will you come out?" He muttered in a despondent tone.

Nearly a month ago, Sect Master Zachery had returned with serious injuries and went into secluded cultivation at once without revealing anything.

Later, when investigating, they learned that he along with the sect master of the Thunderbolt Sect had undergone a serious battle with Devil Emperor Conard who had invaded their territory.

Although they managed to punish Conard and force him back, it couldn't be considered their win. This was because the next day, a powerful group of individuals from the Heavenly Demon Sect attacked their sect.

Moreover, the one commanding them was Demon Emperor Trevor; a terrifying demon beast at the peak stage of the Domain Realm. Thus, their bad days started.

They lost lands after lands, innocent people after another, and during all this, they could at most try to save a few civilians. They didn't dare to retaliate in fear of catching the attention of Trevor. After all, they knew that only their Sect Master could stand toe to toe against him.

Nonetheless, the Sect Master wasn't available at the moment. As a result, they were all hiding inside the sect formation, waiting for the Sect Master to come out. But the question is how long can this formation hold on?

Hence, they were all living with an extreme feeling of trepidation. Neither could they cultivate nor rest. They would simply observe the formation and wait for their fates.

However, they didn't know that such similar incidents were occurring in other middle-grade sects as well. At present, the inner regions were slowly being conquered by the Heavenly Demon Sect.

That's the reason why nobody responded to their call for help. The same went for the Thunderbolt Sect that was somewhat safe right now. But the peace would definitely not last for long.

Knowing this, they too turned a blind eye to them. The other surprising thing was that they couldn't contact the Mystic Beast Sect that everyone depended on in the Northern Mainland.

The communication jade slip left behind by them didn't work no matter how much they tried.

While having these thoughts, the group had reached one of the mountain peaks in the region.

"What a powerful aura!" The disciples exclaimed in disbelief when they felt something sharp and heavy pressing down on them.

"It is a sword intent." The elder released his cultivation base countering the sword intent that was still lingering here.

"Phew" The disciples blew mouthfuls of air in relief.

"Stick with me. We are climbing it." The elder set his sight on the top of the peak and saw how it was caved in.

"I believe there is a treasure inside." With excitement, he waved his hand, and everyone flew into the air with him.

"Whoosh!"

They landed there in a couple of seconds and their expression changed instantly with what they saw.

"Is this it?" Dillion asked in confusion.

"A lamp? I can't sense anything extraordinary from it." Amaya replied.

"I don't think it's that simple." The elder could sense how deeply concentrated the elementary particles were in the area.

"Let me check it." He steadily approached it step by step, in case something dangerous transpired.

But he was surprised to find that nothing unusual took place. Anyways, he didn't hesitate and picked up the lamp.

He scanned it with Divine Sense and said, "See I told you. It is undoubtedly a rare treasure."

"What did you find?" The disciples were eager to know.

"I can't see through it even with my cultivation at the middle stage of the Domain Realm. I believe we must first refine it." The elder answered.

"Is it a fairy artifact?" Amaya asked.

"I don't know. If it had a soul then it should have reacted. Maybe the soul is lying dormant due to some reasons?" The elder guessed.

"Then why don't you refine it and check," Dillion suggested.

"No, it's dangerous here. You should know that one needs to inject lots of soul Qi and blood essence to refine such treasures." The elder declined.

"Nevertheless, you all don't need to worry. I will refine it straight away after reaching the sect." He reassured them and took out a talisman from his spirit ring.

"We are leaving.." He burned it and everyone disappeared from the spot in a jiffy.
