Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends.

The backstory sounds quite tragic, about a dragon carrying the hopes of its entire race.

However, his excitement didn't last long before he discovered a crucial problem.

This character card is different from Ursula and Godo, who he drew before. Instead, like the Nine-Colored Deer and the Frog Prince, it is a character card that needs to be redeveloped.

Chapter 147 Dragon Realm

"Sigh, why isn't this a special character card!"

Lin Wan rubbed her temples helplessly, her earlier excitement having cooled down considerably.

I finally managed to draw another character card, but it turns out it's another one that needs to be raised from scratch.

Moreover, this dragon is still in the form of a dragon egg!

He looked at the quiet dragon egg in the system space and felt a bit of a headache. What should he do? He couldn't just keep it warm like he was incubating a chick, could he? This was a dragon egg; the incubation conditions must be extraordinary.

He hesitated repeatedly, his fingertips tapping unconsciously on the table as he pondered how to help Xisu break free of her shell. Should he nurture her with soul power? Place her in an extreme environment like the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well? Or perhaps some special energy ritual was needed?

Time passed slowly, and Lin Wan went through all the methods she could think of in her mind, but in the end, she still couldn't come up with a solution.

He knows too little about dragons. If he acts rashly and messes things up, causing Heath to be unable to be born for a long time, the loss would be too great.

Lin Wan also considered having the fairy tale characters she had already summoned figure out a way to hatch the dragon egg.

Queen Eva is knowledgeable and experienced, and perhaps knows some of the secrets.

The nine-colored deer is an auspicious beast with abundant life energy, and may be able to provide assistance.

Even Ursula, far away in the deep sea, as a witch, might possess some unorthodox contract or hatching secrets.

But as soon as the thought popped into his head, he suppressed it.

He shook his head slightly. The fairytale characters he summoned each had their own thoughts: Eva navigated the power dynamics of the Heavenly Dou Sect, the Nine-Colored Deer maintained the balance of the Star Dou Great Forest, and Ursula ran her faith kingdom in the deep sea…

Let them incubate a dragon egg that will require an unknown amount of effort. Putting aside whether they are good at it, will they really put in their best effort?

What if he doesn't do it properly? What if something goes wrong and the dragon eggs get damaged? Then all his investment would be wasted.

Lin Wan didn't want to take that risk.

Although as the system host, he could have easily forced them to do this, Lin Wan didn't want to do it.

He always felt that rather than using coercion to force someone into doing something they didn't truly obey, it was better to maintain the current relatively independent yet mutually beneficial relationship.

Lin Wan still prefers to respect the subjectivity of fairy tale characters and give them a certain degree of autonomy, so that their subjective initiative can be better brought into play and bring them greater surprises and help.

Of course, all of this is on the premise that it does not affect one's core interests and plans.

Now, how to safely and efficiently incubate and nurture Xi Su is clearly one of his core interests.

Therefore, after ruling out the options of doing it herself or asking her colleagues for help, Lin Wan made a decisive decision.

You're the one, dear system.

Lin Wan refocused his attention on the system interface. He remembered that in addition to the lottery, the system had some basic functions that could be used by spending a small amount of reputation points.

For example, helpful auxiliary functions in critical moments include information retrieval and services.

Lin Wanping rarely uses this function, feeling it's unnecessary, but now is just the right time.

"Help me find the most suitable places for Xisu to grow and hatch," Lin Wan silently recited to herself, while confirming that she had paid the corresponding reputation points.

With the influence of his reputation points, the system interface flashed slightly, and almost without delay, a clear and detailed list appeared before his eyes.

Based on the current life characteristics and energy requirements of the target "Shin-Shu the Dragon," the following locations are recommended:

1. Dragon Realm (Dragon Valley): A special space created by the immense divine power and remaining will of the Dragon God after his meteor fall, mainly used for burying and resting the remains of the dragon race.

The Dragon God suffered severe injuries in the ancient war of the gods and ultimately perished. In his dying moments, the divine power that erupted from his soul blocked the world-destroying catastrophe that swept through the dragon race. He also forcibly tore through space, creating Dragon Valley, and moved the remains of most of his powerful dragon warriors and subjects into it, saving them from being left to rot in the wilderness or desecrated.

Within Dragon Valley, not only lies the colossal, mountain-like skeleton of the Dragon God, but also countless ancient dragon corpses and lingering souls. The intertwining of dragon energy and the aura of death creates a unique and vast energy field, a sacred ground for the dragon bloodline—both its ultimate resting place and a place for the transmission and rebirth of power. Nourished by this dragon energy, it has also nurtured numerous rare and precious natural treasures, possessing extraordinary effects on the dragon race.

2. Core Area of ​​Star Dou Great Forest, Lake of Life: The core forbidden area of ​​Star Dou Great Forest, guarded by ferocious beasts such as the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian.

The lake water contains the oldest and purest life force of this land, which is endless and nourishes all things.

Its lakebed may be connected to the deeper source of life in the earth's veins, possessing almost limitless vitality, and has immeasurable benefits for the growth, repair, and even transformation of any life form.

3. The Eye of Ice and Fire: Located deep within the Sunset Forest, this is a natural wonder formed by the intersection of the sites where the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, two dragon kings, perished.

Two springs, one icy and one fiery, are distinct yet intertwined deep within the spring, giving rise to two extreme yet complementary energies: extreme cold and extreme heat.

This place is not only a paradise for plants, but also a place where the essence of the two dragon kings' purest dragon power and soul is transformed. It has a great attraction for those with dragon bloodlines, who can temper their bloodlines and accelerate their growth by using ice and fire to refine their bodies.

4. The core of the far north: the frigid land in the far north of the continent, covered by ice and snow all year round, with an extremely harsh environment.

Its core area contains the most yin and coldest ice-elemental energy in the world, pure yet domineering.

For certain types of dragons, such as ice dragons, snow dragons, or those that need extreme environments to stimulate their bloodline awakening, this is an excellent place for training and transformation.

5.…

Several other locations were listed later, but they were clearly inferior to the first four in terms of both the level of detail in the descriptions and the energy level conveyed in the descriptions.

Lin Wan's gaze swept back and forth across the list, her fingers unconsciously tapping lightly on her knees as she weighed her options.

While the Lake of Life in the Starry Sky Forest is indeed teeming with life, it is Gu Yuena's territory, and the Nine-Colored Deer already roams there.

The dual energy of ice and fire is unique, but it has already been occupied by Gedo.

The environment in the far north is too extreme, and the Snow Queen is already there.

Lin Wan's gaze finally settled firmly on the number one ranked option.

Dragon Realm.

As Lin Wan watched the introduction about the Dragon Realm on the light screen, especially the words "Dragon God's Remains," countless ancient dragon corpses, dragon energy field, and rare and precious materials that have miraculous effects on dragons, his eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Chapter 148 Return to the Heavenly Battle

This place is practically a breeding ground and cultivation cheat code tailor-made for dragons!

Moreover, judging from this description, there are so many treasures in Dragon Valley!

A lost space containing countless dragon skeletons and treasures; its value is simply immeasurable.

Moreover, he now has reputation points, so he can easily teleport the still-egg-like Xisu directly through the system. It's safe, convenient, and he doesn't need to take any risks himself.

"An investment! This is an absolutely worthwhile investment!" Lin Wan's eyes gleamed. Investing a dragon egg and a teleportation fee now, and then waiting for Xisu to grow up there, the returns a divine dragon raised in the sacred land of the dragon realm could bring him would be immeasurable!

With that thought in mind, he no longer hesitated.

With a thought, he took the dragon egg, which emitted a faint light and felt warm to the touch, out of the system space.

Immediately, a life-sized dragon egg appeared out of thin air on the soft carpet in front of him.

The eggshell is about half a person's height, and its entire body is a warm, watery blue color, as if it were carved from the finest blue jade.

The eggshell surface is covered with fine, mysterious scale-like patterns. These patterns are not static, but rather slowly flowing, like the breathing of a living being, radiating gentle and pure water-elemental energy fluctuations.

Lin Wan spoke softly to the dragon egg, her tone filled with anticipation, "Xi Su, did you hear that? I've found you a great place. The Dragon Realm, the home of your dragon race, it's full of treasures."

"Once you're inside, don't let me down! You must train diligently, break through your shell as soon as possible, and become strong!"

As he finished speaking, the dragon egg trembled slightly, and a clear yet childlike female voice resounded deep within his mind, carrying a hint of bewilderment from being just awakened, but responding with unwavering determination:

"I will, Lin Wan."

Having received a response, Lin Wan no longer hesitated. He communicated with the system again, locked onto his destination—the Dragon Realm—and paid the corresponding reputation points.

"System, transfer the target, the dragon Sissu, to the Dragon Realm."

A soft yet profound light emerged from nothingness, completely enveloping the dragon egg in front of Lin Wan.

The light subsided the next moment, and the dragon egg vanished instantly without leaving a trace.

Feeling the faint life connection traverse an unknown distance and safely arrive in another dimension, Lin Wan breathed a long sigh of relief, a satisfied smile appearing on her face.

……

Meanwhile, after half a month, Yu Xiaogang and his group are about to arrive in Tiandou City.

The reason they took so long to reach Tiandou City was entirely due to the fact that transportation on the Douluo Continent was far from advanced.

In this world, almost everyone, from the moment they can understand speech, has only one goal—to become a Soul Master.

To achieve this goal, Soul Masters will choose to unite with other Soul Masters, hoping to give birth to offspring with even greater talent.

Ordinary people without soul power regard marrying a soul master as a way to change their family's fate, and they yearn for it.

If they truly cannot reach such a high level, they can only place their hopes on the ethereal and elusive spirit, hoping that their child will awaken even a faint trace of soul power when he reaches the age of six.

It is precisely in this atmosphere of the whole nation pursuing power and worshipping Soul Masters that many of the most basic living needs are intentionally or unintentionally ignored.

For example, the "travel" in the categories of clothing, food, housing, and transportation.

After all, martial spirits are incredibly diverse, including birds, beasts, insects, fish, knives, spears, swords, halberds, and even some more bizarre things.

Once you become a Soul Master and possess Soul Power, whether you rely on the characteristics of your Martial Soul or enhance your mobility with Soul Power, traveling will always be much more convenient than for ordinary people.

Therefore, the most mainstream and common way of traveling on the mainland is still the most primitive horse-drawn carriage.

However, the carriages were no longer pulled by ordinary horses.

Horses imbued with soul power, relatively docile soul beasts, and even vehicles possessing special martial souls or soul guidance technologies constitute different levels and speeds of transportation.

Even if Yu Xiaogang's talent was poor, his level 29 soul power cultivation was genuine.

As a Great Soul Master, he naturally couldn't possibly lead Tang San and Cinderella to measure the land on foot and travel to the distant Heaven Dou City.

They were traveling in a carriage pulled by two scaled horses. Scaled horses contain a trace of soul beast blood, making them far stronger than ordinary horses and with excellent endurance, making them an excellent choice for long journeys.

The carriage wasn't spacious, but it was enough for three people to fit comfortably. Thick, soft cushions were laid out to minimize the discomfort caused by the long, bumpy journey.

Tang San and Cinderella sat side by side on one side, while Yu Xiaogang sat alone on the opposite side.

The two-week journey was mostly spent in silence. Tang San kept his eyes closed most of the time, his Xuan Tian Gong quietly churning within him, not missing any opportunity to cultivate.

Occasionally, when he opens his eyes, his gaze immediately falls on Cinderella beside him to make sure she is alright, and then, with a hint of coldness hidden in his eyes, he sweeps his eyes over Yu Xiaogang opposite him.

Cinderella, on the other hand, appeared quiet and well-behaved. Sometimes she would stare blankly at the scenery rushing past the window, her azure eyes reflecting the flowing fields and forests, lost in thought.

Sometimes she would take out books she had borrowed from Yu Xiaogang and quietly read them. If she encountered anything she didn't understand, she would quietly ask Yu Xiaogang for help.

At these times, Yu Xiaogang would always perk up and answer as thoroughly as possible.

Looking at Cinderella's focused and studious appearance, he felt a sense of satisfaction at having met such a talented person, which even lessened his fatigue from the journey.

However, whenever he tried to steer the conversation toward more profound theories or to test Tang San's opinion of him, he was always met with Tang San's calm, unwavering gaze and dry "I don't know" or "I have no idea."

After several attempts, Yu Xiaogang could only sigh helplessly and give up on this student with extremely poor comprehension once again, pouring all his teaching enthusiasm into Cinderella alone.

On this day, the carriage rolled over the newly paved official road, and in the distance, the outline of a majestic city gradually became clear.

The massive city walls, like winding mountain ranges, stood tall and cast large shadows in the sunlight.

The city gate was bustling with traffic and crowds, and the noisy chatter could be faintly heard even from a distance.

"We've arrived." Yu Xiaogang looked at the familiar city, his face showing a complex expression, but more so an eagerness to achieve his goal.

"This is the imperial city of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City."

Tang San opened his eyes and looked at the city. His gaze remained calm, but beneath that calmness, a sharp glint flashed and disappeared.

He has finally arrived here, which means he can find more and better materials to create more powerful hidden weapons.

Chapter 149 Reply

Cinderella put down her book, leaned against the car window, and gazed at the magnificent city that was getting closer and closer, her eyes revealing just the right amount of curiosity and amazement.

The carriages, following the flow of people, slowly passed through the massive and imposing city gate.

The scene inside the city was completely different from that outside. The wide and clean streets were lined with shops, and flags were waving in the wind.

Pedestrians and Soul Masters dressed in various colors strolled among them, and the air was filled with a kind of prosperity and vitality that could never be found in Nottingham.

Yu Xiaogang was clearly quite familiar with Tiandou City. He directed the coachman, and the carriage traveled through the network of streets before finally stopping in a relatively quiet alley in front of a rather elegant courtyard.

The courtyard wall is built of gray bricks and stones, and two stone-carved spirit beasts guard the entrance. Although they are not ostentatious, they have their own calm and dignified demeanor.

"We've arrived. We'll stay here for now," Yu Xiaogang said to the two of them as he stepped off the carriage.
