Chapter 1008: Chapter 108 Gate of Gods
“So five days are a safety period, an absolute safety period. Even seven days would be fine. But Lan Xuanyu, to be safe, still set it at five days. This was their first time coming to Sky Dragon Planet, but it certainly wouldn’t be their last.
The cities on Sky Dragon Planet had no walls at all, and soon they were walking along a wide road. It really was a continent, an extremely vast road.
The road was wide enough to span more than one hundred meters, and different races could be seen passing by from time to time. As members of the Blue Sea Tribe, they walked by the roadside and didn’t attract any attention.
As they were walking, the sky suddenly darkened, and everyone looked up to see a giant dragon-like creature descending from above.
The other races walking on the road scattered in all directions, allowing the colossal dragon-like creature to fold its wings and land in the middle of the spacious road.
After the dragon-like creature landed, its enormous Dragon Head looked around gracefully, wings folding behind its back, taking large strides towards the direction of the city.
This Dragon-like creature was a full one hundred meters long, and the intensity of its aura was also quite formidable. It was obviously much stronger than the chubby dragon-like creature they had encountered previously. Its body was covered with dark blue Scales, including its belly. It really did resemble a true dragon to some degree, the only difference being its belly was much larger, and its overall body shape was not as well-proportioned as a true dragon’s.
Lan Xuanyu, who carried the Dragon God’s bloodline within him, silently sensed and could tell that the dragon bloodline purity of this dragon-like creature was higher.
Listening to the heavy footsteps of the dragon-like creature moving forward, and observing the various races’ respectful behavior towards the dragon-like species, it was clear that dragon-like creatures held a high status on Sky Dragon Planet.
Continuing their journey, they finally entered the city, and making observations was the first task at hand. Upon entering this city of Sky Dragon Planet, they all felt as if their bodies had shrunk. It was because the buildings of this city were enormous.
Upon observing, they found that the largest buildings were actually meant for the use of the dragon-like creatures. Some buildings even had dragon-like creatures guarding the entrances, not allowing other races to approach, let alone enter.
Besides the dragon-like creatures, there were a few other races in large numbers. The Blue Sea Tribe, which they were disguised as, was one of them. In addition to the Blue Sea Tribe, there were also many centaurs with human torsos and horse legs. The unique thing about the centaurs was the number of legs they had, with the vast majority having four legs and the occasional sighting of centaurs with six legs.
What caught their attention the most was an eight-legged centaur flying through the air with wings. Its status was clearly very high, comparable to that of the dragon-like creatures, as it flew directly into a dragon-like creature’s residence.
The number of other races was relatively less, and they were incredibly diverse in appearance. Lan Xuanyu and his group even spotted members of the Sky Domination Clan. When they first saw them, they indeed felt a bit nervous. But it was clear that these were just ordinary members of the Sky Domination Clan; they couldn’t sense the presence of Little Lazy Bug on them. Especially now, with Little Lazy Bug’s aura being heavily suppressed. Without God Rank Cultivation, even within a range of one hundred meters, they wouldn’t be detected.
Walking and observing, Sky Dragon Planet was indeed very prosperous, seemingly untouched by the war in outer space. After wandering around the city for two hours, they found a very meaningful place. A bookstore, yes, a bookstore of Sky Dragon Planet.
There were many books inside the bookstore, of all sizes, and those super-sized volumes were clearly for the dragon-like creatures to read. This indicated that the dragon-like creatures must have quite high intelligence.
Finding the bookstore was like finding a treasure-trove for Lan Xuanyu and his companions. Of course, they had no money, so buying was out of the question. But taking… that they could do…”
The Sky Dragon Planet’s script could be directly translated with a translator. After searching for a while, the seven people took several books that were most meaningful to the Douluo Federation, such as the history books of the Sky Dragon Planet.
And then the seven of them fled.
The bookstore owner chased after them, but the seven were already without a trace. But it was just a few books after all. The bookstore owner, being a member of the Blue Sea Tribe, was angry but ultimately did not report the incident to the higher authorities.
Lan Xuanyu and his companions found a place to quickly translate and record using the translator. This was important for both them and the federation. Understanding their opponents would allow them to face them better.
During the translation process, they began to learn about the history of not only the Sky Dragon Planet but also the Sky Horse Star.
What surprised them was that these two planets were not originally known as the Sky Dragon Star and Sky Horse Star but as the Twin Sky Horse Stars.
The two planets supported each other and both belonged to the Sky Horse Clan. The so-called Sky Horse Clan, as they had seen earlier, resembled centaurs. They called themselves the Sky Horse Clan, a race with a very ancient history. They were once the rulers of the Twin Sky Horse Stars.
The universe is full of wonders. From the moment the Sky Horse Clan began to possess intelligence, they controlled both planets simultaneously. How did they do it? There was a gigantic teleportation array within the Sky Dragon Star and the Sky Horse Star that allowed mutual transmission.
One step into the teleportation array, and the next moment you could arrive on the other side, which was extremely strange.
This was called the Gate of Gods by the Sky Horse Clan. The Gate of Gods made the distance between the two planets virtually nonexistent. Moreover, since the two planets were extremely large, even though the Sky Horse Clan had a history of over a hundred thousand years and their technological development was very weak, their abundant resources were seemingly inexhaustible. Using these resources, the Sky Horse Clan’s interest in self-development greatly exceeded that in technology. And even within the Dragon Horse Star System, although the technological level of some other races continued to advance, it was insignificant compared to the Sky Horse Clan, which could exist unaided in the vacuum of space around constant stars.
Until one day, one of the original Twin Sky Horse Stars, now known as the Sky Dragon Star, suddenly experienced a special situation. A bizarre space seemed to overlap with the Sky Dragon Star, causing strange mutations to appear on the planet.
Some of the original species began to change. After that spatial overlap, dragon-like species started to appear—yes, the Sky Horse Star referred to dragon-like beings as the Dragon Clan. This mutation occurred across nearly all the original species on the Sky Horse Star. In their history, this was known as the Dragon-Transformation Period.
The entire Dragon-Transformation Period lasted for a full ten thousand years, giving rise to the current Dragon Clan, which was naturally strong and possessed no small amount of intelligence. They quickly established a foothold on the Twin Sky Horse Stars.
Normally, if such a mutation occurred, the Sky Horse Clan would definitely have killed all the mutated creatures. But these members of the Dragon Clan could communicate, had high intelligence, and united to resist together. After numerous battles, not only did they become stronger, but their numbers continued to grow. Most importantly, a powerful race emerged that could contend with the original Sky Horse Clan. That is the current Sky Dragon Clan.
All the original species on the Sky Dragon Star underwent dragon transformation, and so the original Sky Horse Clan on the Sky Dragon Star also experienced the same transformation. Later, they were known as Sky Dragons, with the head of a dragon and the body of a horse.
The powerful attributes of the Sky Horse Clan mainly had two aspects, one was the number of horse legs, and the other was whether they possessed wings. These represented two different directions of evolution.
Before the emergence of the Sky Dragon Clan, the most horse legs a Sky Horse could have was ten. But, unprecedentedly, the Sky Dragon Clan evolved a powerful individual with twelve horse legs, possessing Ultra Divine Level strength, who reigned supreme over both stars, undefeated among them, and finally led the Dragon Clan to defeat the Sky Horse Clan.
However, since he himself originated from the Sky Horse Clan, he did not destroy them, and it seemed that the Dragon-Transformation Period had also ended. Apart from the originally mutated Dragon Clan being able to reproduce amongst themselves, no other species experienced dragon transformation anymore. And the reproduction rate of the Dragon Clan through direct offspring was very slow.
