Chapter 699 Ao Hong's Fortuitous Encounter
Moments later, the entire East Sea Dragon Palace was cleared away.
Cang Nian never expected that his trip to the East Sea Dragon Palace, which he had only come to pick up trash, would turn out to be such a pleasant surprise.
It turns out that after the reinforcements from the capital, along with a group of powerful warriors from the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom, slaughtered half of the Dragon Clan's army, those Dragon Clan members who had fled in the chaos due to manpower shortages went straight home.
The Dragon Palace is very large and can accommodate a large number of dragons.
As they scattered and fled, they also noticed the strange phenomenon of Ao Hong's demise, but their own lives were more important, so they hurried away first.
However, they all shared a surprisingly consistent idea: once they were out of danger, they each went home.
Only the Dragon Palace can give them a full sense of security.
But what they didn't expect was that with Ao Hong, the Dragon King of the East Sea, gone, the formation could no longer be activated.
After some discussion, they decided that it would be safer to stay in the Dragon Palace.
Anyway, the East China Sea is now vast, so who can find the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea in the vast ocean?
In fact, if there are still real dragons living in the Dragon Palace after the Dragon King's death, the throne of the Dragon King will be passed down in the order of the dragons leaping over the Dragon Gate.
For example, Ao Hong was the first in the East Sea Dragon Palace to leap over the ninth Dragon Gate and forge the body of a true dragon.
Moreover, he leaped over the tenth Dragon Gate, truly deserving the title of Dragon King.
But since it is dead, the position of Dragon King should be inherited by the second member of the Dragon Clan who leaped over the ninth Dragon Gate during the Dragon Gate Leap in the East Sea Dragon Palace and transformed into a true dragon.
Unfortunately, in the previous great battle, both the reinforcements from the capital and the Northeast Allied Forces of the Dragon Kingdom had their eyes on the five true dragons, including Ao Ba.
Although they are stronger and have better survival skills, they can only die with resentment when they are targeted.
On the contrary, it was these incomplete dragons, or even just fifth-tier dragons in the shape of shrimp and crabs, who were able to escape in the chaos at the beginning of the battle.
However, only those with the body of a true dragon can ascend to the throne of the Dragon King; without the throne of the Dragon King, there is no control over the Dragon Palace formation.
Having been brought here by Ao Tian, they could only accept their bad luck.
In fact, the number and quality of the powerful figures in the Bohai Dragon Palace are inferior to those in the East Sea Dragon Palace.
If possible, Ao Tian would like to recruit a group of powerful dragons to strengthen his Bohai Dragon Palace.
But these remnants of the East Sea Dragon Palace, regardless of their previous stance, had all been coerced by Ao Hong into besieging the Demon City, and unsurprisingly, none of them had resorted to cannibalism.
Ao Tian didn't want this kind of dragon, so in the end, it could only benefit Cangnian.
Soon, Cangnian led the fifth-tier experts of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom to massacre the East Sea Dragon Palace and reaped a great harvest.
Just the presence of these five fifth-tier dragons alone makes the trip worthwhile.
In addition, there are countless other fourth-tier dragons of varying sizes.
These items couldn't fit in the little sable's storage space, but fortunately, the little sable had the ability to solidify space confinement, shrinking inanimate objects for storage.
After packing up the dragon corpses, Cangnian and his group scattered and began to plunder the interior of the East Sea Dragon Palace.
Believe it or not, there are quite a few good things in this East Sea Dragon Palace.
Dragons have a penchant for collecting all sorts of random things; this isn't just a trait of the Dragon King, but rather a characteristic of the entire dragon race.
Therefore, the rooms of all sizes in the Dragon Palace contain all sorts of "collectibles".
However, most of them are bone rods, bone slices, shells, scallops and the like.
Moreover, the items that ordinary dragons can collect are not of a high level; most are third-tier, and a small number are fourth-tier.
However, similarly, the fifth-tier dragon clan's collection also contains many items of the fifth tier.
Although they are all bones, the value of a fifth-tier bone is vastly different from that of a fourth-tier bone.
And so, Cangnian and his group enjoyed the fun of scavenging and ransacked the entire East Sea Dragon Palace.
However, to Cangnian's surprise, besides some random bones, he actually found something good.
A flat, oval-shaped, silvery-white stone slab!
Ao Tian discovered this thing; its shimmering appearance is most likely to attract the attention of the dragons.
However, after studying it for a long time, it still couldn't find any use for it.
However, its immense hardness definitely places it in the fifth tier, and its appearance aligns with the aesthetics of the dragon race. Ao Tian didn't care whether it was useful or not, and simply kept it for now.
But after everyone finished looting and regrouped, the little sable seemed to sense something about the stone.
The little sable discovered that this stone had strong spatial fluctuations!
After Ao Tian repeatedly declined and Cang Nian made numerous assurances, Ao Tian finally allowed the little sable to touch and study the stone piece himself.
Ao Tian really liked the stone, but fearing it might be useful to the little sable, Cang Nian snatched it away.
Cangnian could only guarantee that, regardless of whether the stone was useful to the little sable or not, it belonged to Aotian. The little sable could only borrow it, and it could not cause any damage to it.
"Your Majesty... this seems to purify my spatial power, making it easier for me to activate my abilities, with less consumption and greater power!"
The little sable checked it several times before finally raising its head to express its feelings.
"Purify spatial power? Does that mean that a spatial powerhouse can become permanently stronger with just one purification?"
Upon hearing this, Cang Nian was quite surprised, and then quickly asked.
"Yes! That's it!"
No wonder I felt that Ao Hong was on par with me based solely on his special abilities.
He's far more powerful than those space-type experts in the capital!
So it had such a great opportunity!
The little sable nodded, then suddenly realized.
Upon hearing this, Cangnian nodded in understanding.
He doesn't have spatial abilities, so he doesn't feel it deeply.
But in reality, the little sable's current outstanding appearance is largely due to the "precocious" effect of pine nuts.
Compared to other evolved creatures of the same level, having one more boost in their abilities naturally makes them stronger.
Ao Hong, however, did not have the "precocious" effect, but his spatial abilities were no less than those of Little Sable, which was obviously extraordinary!
Now it seems that all of this is thanks to this silvery-white stone fragment!
If nothing unexpected happens, Ao Hong obtained this stone fragment even before he leaped over the Dragon Gate.
Therefore, he was able to shine brightly in the Dragon Gate Leap, leaping over the tenth Dragon Gate, and was far more powerful than Ao Ba, the Dragon King of the Yellow Sea.
Of course, being able to leap over the tenth dragon gate requires more than just a stroke of luck; one's own strength is also indispensable.
However, Ao Hong has now perished, and his opportunity seems to be not a one-time use, now falling into the hands of Ao Tian.
Ao Hong himself used it without affecting the stone fragment, so the little sable borrowing it shouldn't cause any damage either.
Now, Ao Hong's opportunity has actually benefited Little Sable.
"Ao Tian, I'll lend this stone to Cang Kong for a while. Once it's enhanced, I'll return it to you!"
Ao Hong didn't break it, so Cang Kong definitely won't break it either!
Upon learning of the stone's effects, Cang Nian was in high spirits and said with a smile.
