The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

That’s perfect!

Grau’s dragon eyes sparkled as he followed David’s rhetorical retreat, planning to retract his extended dragon claw.

Among Evan Davis’s treasures, aside from the Golden Elixir (Eight-turns) that could help break through to Class VIII, this Chaos Emperor Blade on his dragon claw was the most precious.

The Chaos Emperor Blade, also known as Dragon Sword, was an epic arcane implement forged by Evan Davis from chaos iron in the Forbidden Abyss, then sacrificially refined with a True Dragon’s body, infusing it with the power of the Dragon bloodline.

It was said that during the seventy-seven days the Chaos Emperor Blade was being nurtured, it not only devoured the power of seven Emperor Evil Dragons, but it also drained the Gareon Dynasty’s resources, sparking rebellions everywhere and leading to the dynasty’s rapid demise.

Without the dynasty’s fate’s backing, and because the Chaos Emperor Blade’s sacrificial refinement was interrupted by rebellious troops after just forty-nine days, failing to complete the eighty-one layers of refinement, this could-be immortal semi-immortal implement’s grade fell to that of a nine-refined heritage weapon.

Ultimately, the Chaos Emperor Blade was an immortal semi-immortal implement created by Evan Davis to combat the Immortal Infernal Dark Dragon and establish the foundation of the Gareon Dynasty for all eternity, using the finest materials of the age. Regrettably, it ended in nearly-success.

Grau, being a five-colored dragon species with all five poisons, naturally possessed the Five-Colored Giant Dragon’s chaotic evil and greed for treasure resources.

But beyond greed and reluctance, the Chaos Emperor Blade’s natural repression of dragons was the main reason Grau was loath to give it to David.

The moment Grau saw the Chaos Emperor Blade in the Relic, even before he had broken through to the Emperor class, he felt a tremor of terror and despair, as if he would die if he neared it.

If it wasn’t for Lilith’s use of the Sword Box to collect the Chaos Emperor Blade, suppressing most of its might, even the much stronger Grau of the present wouldn’t dare to wield the dragon-blood-drinking Dragon Sword, fearing he might be injured by its sharpness.

Avoiding harm and seeking benefit is the nature of dragons. If it wasn’t for Lilith’s suggestion, Grau really intended to seal the Chaos Emperor Blade forever in his treasury, to keep it from falling into evil hands and eventually harming the Dragon species and affecting himself.

Indeed, that last point is particularly important!

Grau glanced at Lilith a bit guiltily, displaying an expression of ‘It’s not that I won’t give it, it’s really that the junior brother doesn’t want it,’ and then attempted to sneak the Chaos Emperor Blade into his treasury to skate by unnoticed.

Upon witnessing this, David made no move.

Frankly, what era is it now? He wasn’t very interested in ancient legendary weapons like the Chaos Emperor Blade meant for Ultra-capables to wield; he’d rather have the Nine Dragons Purple Gold Armor, a defensive arcane implement.

Moreover, if it weren’t for the Red Earth Elixir that Grau had given him as a life-saving gift, David wouldn’t be able to leisurely cultivate at Rosewood College.

Compared to the favor of saving his life, a Chaos Emperor Blade he wouldn’t use was truly optional.

After all, David himself was a Dragoon. No matter how greedy he was for Pet Resources, he couldn’t possibly sell the dragon-slaying Chaos Emperor Blade for them. What if the last strike hit his own Pet; that would be foolish!

“Cough cough!”

Just as a smile appeared on Grau’s face, Lilith Hoyle coughed lightly, her gaze tranquilly turning toward him.

“You unlucky dragon plagued by misfortune, would you like to freeload off David’s luck again next time?”

Grau, catching the hint, stiffened. After a glance at David, who seemed utterly indifferent, he closed his dragon eyes and, with the appearance of suffering a loss, pushed the Sword Box on his dragon claw into David’s arms.

“Grau’s promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold; I said I’d give it to you, so I’ll give it to you. No refusing.”

David: “…”

If it wasn’t for Grau grinding his teeth while he spoke, I almost believed that nonsense!

Lilith shook her head and ignored Grau’s goofy expression, her eyes earnestly looking towards David.

“Do you know all about the Louise Relic?”

“I do, but my goal is clear, striving in cultivation and breaking through to Epic is more important than treasure hunting in relics,” David said seriously.

Who would want to risk their lives adventuring when they could level up steadily?

A Poison Ultimate Emperor that had stepped into the Semi-Immortal Level could wipe out the entire Sakura Soul Country, and nestled deep in the ancient relic discovered by the Louise was the terrifying existence of the Dragon of the End, a creature capable of destroying nations.

“Alright then!”

Lilith faintly smiled and said, “According to ancient records, the Dragon of the End is the sworn enemy of the Eclipse Dragon. Its dragon blood can significantly accelerate the cultivation of the Tigrex Dossier. Seamus Coldwell once used a drop of Dragon of the End essence blood to enter the fifth level of the Tigrex Dossier, becoming an Epic Body Cultivator and laying the perfect foundation for becoming an Epic Dragoon.”

David: “!!!”

“Rosalind had to gift the rights to the relic to me because the Waterland Trainer Guild got involved, and she clearly stated that you are the key to solving the Demise Relic. But since you don’t want to go out, it wouldn’t be right for me as your mentor to force you. I’ll have to take Grau with me to help decipher it,” Lilith said with regret.

“A legend powerhouse + legendary Emperor Dragon vs the sealed Dragon of the End, this sounds quite interesting!” David felt somewhat tempted, but ultimately, he didn’t speak up.

Afterward, Lilith brought up the topic of the auction. David told her everything that happened during that time, omitting only the things he couldn’t mention.

After finishing the conversation, David noticed it was late and excused himself to go back to his dorm to continue Strengthening his Dragon Crystal.

“If little brother David doesn’t join us in the Demise Relic, then what’s the point of giving Grau the Chaos Emperor Blade?” Grau scratched his head with his dragon claw, feeling like he got the short end of the stick on this one.

“Can you think a little bit bigger?”

Lilith glanced at Grau, irritated, “Do you believe that at that auction, your precious little brother gained the most?”

“Huh?” Grau was full of question marks.

“Kylin’s Blessing, plus one God Quenching Bodhi. These are rarities that even legendary powerhouses hardly come by!” Lilith reminded.

“What? Didn’t David say that the Kylin didn’t recognize him as its master, and the God Quenching Bodhi he finally found was mystified by the Evil Trainer?” Grau’s eyes widened.

“Forget it, chatting with you blockhead is a complete waste of my time.” Lilith shook her head and started to look for information about the Demise Relic to avoid any mishaps.

Grau, on the other hand, turned to look toward David’s villa, his dragon eyes showing a hint of indecision.

Within the Evan Davis Relic, there was more than just the Chaos Emperor Blade; there was a myriad of Pet Resources including an Emperor Dragon egg that had died in the shell.

Rainbow mentioned that David was good at cooking eggs with tomatoes. Should I offer to make him scrambled dragon eggs with tomatoes as a bribe to get him to accompany me to the Demise Relic?

It had always been unlucky since it was little, every time it followed Lilith on relic expeditions, it would nearly lose its life without exception. But adventuring with the little brother always went smoothly, and they could easily pick up treasures and rare resources.

“No, Grau has to try!” Grau’s dragon eyes hardened, his gaze becoming utterly resolute.

A premonition of danger pulsed within him, reminding him that if David didn’t join this relic expedition, he might end up suffering and taking a beating again!
