Elven cultivators

Upon realizing Anton's plan, the dragons' faces turned ashen.

An indescribable anger and humiliation surged into my heart instantly.

They are dragons.

The golden race that once reigned supreme over the continent and suppressed all races.

Do you want them to be imprisoned and kept like livestock in the dark trenches, to be slaughtered by humans?

This is an absolute disgrace!

They wanted to rebuke the other party, but when they looked up and met Anton's indifferent eyes, the anger that had just surged up vanished instantly, as if extinguished by ice water.

What's the use of anger?

Even Lord Sefilas died at their hands.

What could these remnants of the army possibly use to resist?

After a moment of silence, not a single dragon voiced its protest.

They lowered their heads and silently accepted this humiliating fate.

At least... they're still alive.

As long as you're alive, there's still hope.

Anton ignored the dragons and waved his sleeve.

The Jia Chen God General appeared out of thin air beside him.

He currently has no other suitable guardians and can only temporarily entrust the task of guarding these dragons to General Jia Chen.

He will wait until he finds a suitable candidate to replace General Jia Chen.

Fortunately, he had already set up a teleportation array in the Eternal Night Islands. As long as he returned to the Primordial Spirit Realm and set up a corresponding connecting teleportation array, he would be able to travel quickly between the two places in the future.

Having done all this, Anton didn't linger. With a flash, he transformed into a sword light that soared into the sky and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye.

It wasn't until long after Anton had left that the dragons snapped out of their daze and, under the indifferent gaze of General Jia Chen, flew dejectedly toward the Eternal Night Islands.

From today onward, they will live as prisoners.

……

The sword light streaked across the sky, leaving the Eternal Night Islands far behind.

Anton let the strong wind rush past his ears, his mind churning with thoughts.

The dragon race, which once ruled the continent of Dawn, now has only a pitiful hundred or so members left.

They are the last spark of the dragon race.

For Anton, the gains from killing these hundred-plus dragons were limited.

It would be better to spare their lives and keep them in captivity.

After all, dragons have many good things on them.

In the future, we can harvest materials every now and then, ensuring a steady flow of income.

In any case, only he knew that the dragon was hiding here; no outsider would know.

As for whether it will lead to a dangerous situation...

To be honest, Anton did hope that another saint would emerge from among them.

In this way, the sword pellet also has a target to devour.

However, among the remaining dragons, there isn't even a single royal dragon, so it's unlikely that another Saint-level dragon will emerge.

Anton didn't have high hopes for this.

Fortunately, there are other options.

After the dragon race was destroyed, the sword pellet could only devour targets in two directions.

The first one is a dragon beastman.

Those orcs who fused with dragon bloodlines through the Blood Fusion Ritual at Bloodhowl Fortress have dragon blood flowing through their veins and are essentially a variant of the dragon race.

Perhaps it can be used to enhance the sword pellet.

But this needs to be considered in the long term.

Bloodhowl Fortress is one of the five top powers on the Dawn Continent, the strongest force among the orcs, with unfathomable depths of power.

Taking action rashly is not a wise move.

The second is the Underworld.

That ancient land of echoes of the dead, banished to the depths of the void, is where countless powerful beings who perished in the eternal war of annihilation slumber.

This includes ancient dragon species.

Countless dragons who died in the ancient wars reached the rank of saint.

There are even demigods among them.

Once the Abyss and the Dawn Continent reconnect, they will awaken and invade the continent.

To outsiders, it was a disaster.

For Anton, however, this was a good opportunity to further improve his sword pellet.

Of course, besides these two methods, the quality of the sword pellet can also be improved through daily nurturing.

However, that would take far too long.

It might take hundreds of years to upgrade the sword pellet to the level of a mid-grade spiritual weapon.

Otherwise, spiritual artifacts wouldn't be so rare in the cultivation world.

Shaking his head, Anton gathered his scattered thoughts and sped off towards the Eldron Plains.

He had only briefly scanned the spatial rings he had seized from Sephira and the dragons with his divine sense, but he was already amazed by the vast amount of resources inside.

He couldn't wait to go back and count his spoils.

……

When they returned to the City of Primordial Beginning, it was already completely dark.

The Nine Heavens Tower stands silently in the night.

The array patterns on the tower emitted a faint glow, like flowing silver streams that spread upwards from the base and disappeared into the clouds.

Anton casually sent a message to Eleanor, then went to the quiet room, sat cross-legged on the futon, and with a flick of his wrist, spatial rings flew out from his sleeves and hovered in front of him.

There are a total of 783 spatial rings, averaging six to seven per dragon.

Each space ring was stuffed full.

Even with the aid of his divine sense, which made the inventory extremely convenient, it still took Anton considerable effort to categorize and tally the contents of each ring.

After the inventory was completed, even he, who was used to seeing wealth, couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The quantity and quality of the spoils far exceeded his prior estimates.

First, there are minerals.

Mithril, orogen, meteorite iron, void stone, Orichalcos... these metals, which are known as "rare" in the Dawn Continent, are measured in tons in this batch of resources.

Mithril, which is worth a fortune in the outside world, is only ranked last among this batch of minerals.

The mithril alone filled a spatial ring with a capacity of tens of thousands of cubic meters.

The mithril that the clan has mined and smelted from the Underdark and Dragon City mines over the years is probably less than one-tenth of what's here.

As for orogen and meteorite iron, although their quantities are not as exaggerated as mithril, they are still quite considerable.

The Void Stone delighted Anton even more.

This is an extremely rare spatial attribute ore, a core material for crafting high-level storage equipment and teleportation arrays.

He had almost exhausted the clan's reserves of void stones in order to set up a teleportation array for the Primordial Spirit Realm.

These void stones in front of us are more than enough to set up hundreds more teleportation arrays.

There is also Orichalco, also known as "the essence of oriental copper," which is an alloy formed naturally from mithril and oriental copper under specific conditions over tens of thousands of years of geological processes.

It is ten times harder than mithril and five times more conductive than orichalcum.

In the continent of Dawn, Orichalcos is known as the "Ancient Metal" and is a top-grade material for crafting legendary magical equipment.

Such precious materials weighed tens of thousands of pounds in the spatial ring.

"The dragon race is indeed incredibly wealthy."

Anton couldn't help but sigh.

Secondly, there are various energy crystals.

The number of magic stones is the largest, totaling more than 1.23 million.

The total output of the three magic stone veins currently being mined by the Silvermoon Clan over the past ten years is probably less than one-tenth of this figure.

Not to mention that the magic stones produced by the clan are mostly of medium and low grade, with high-grade magic stones accounting for only a small portion.

And all of these more than one million magic stones were of superior quality.

In addition, there are more than 100,000 magic crystals.

This batch of magic stones and magic crystals alone is enough to ensure that the Silvermoon Clan will not have to worry about the supply of magic stones and magic crystals for the next few decades.

Next is the elemental core.

There are more than 3,000 in total, covering the four attributes of earth, water, wind and fire.

What surprised him even more was the crystallization of the elemental origin.

There are all four attributes: earth, water, wind, and fire, totaling fifty-three.

Anton couldn't help but sigh.

You should know that he fought his way through the subspace for more than 20 years and only managed to exchange for a few dozen elemental cores and five elemental origin crystals from the Burning Beacon Hall.

It's less than a tenth of what we've harvested this time.

Indeed, no one gets rich without unexpected wealth.

In terms of magical items, there are a total of over 7,200 items.

Without exception, they all started at the extraordinary level.

This does not even include the space ring.

Among them are thirty-nine pieces of ancient-grade magical equipment.

Weapons, armor, accessories, auxiliary items... there are many kinds and different functions.

This batch of magical equipment can be used to upgrade the legion's equipment, raising the Silvermoon Legion's combat power to a new level.

Furthermore, those legendary equipment items can be prioritized for allocation to the clan's Gold-rank and Legendary powerhouses to complete equipment upgrades.

The number of magic scrolls and high-level potions is also enormous.

More than a million scrolls and potions filled a full twenty space rings.

In addition, there are tens of thousands of rare books covering magic, alchemy, enchanting, potions, golem making... It's no exaggeration to describe it as a treasure trove of knowledge.

Knowledge is the most valuable material.

An Dong, who benefited greatly from the Great Dao Jade Slip, deeply understood this point.

There's always something he can learn from this knowledge.

It can also enrich the clan's library and enhance the clan's cultural heritage.

Finally, there are various rare materials other than minerals.

This was the part of the spoils that pleased Anton the most.

Nearly one-fifth of the space in the ring was filled with various rare materials.

The variety and quality far exceeded his expectations.

Among them were several rare and precious materials that he had recently considered using to nurture the Golden Elixir.

This includes the Star Essence of the Free Alliance, the First Flame Embers of the Heart of the Mountains, and the Spirit of All Trees of the Emerald Court.

These are most likely tributes from the three top powers to the Dragon Court.

Now he's gotten a good deal.

Although he no longer needs these things, he can give them to Eleanor.

Besides these, there are also many materials that Anton can use right now.

For example, Earth Vein Source Crystal.

A rare material equivalent to an advanced version of Earth Vein Crystal Marrow.

Earth Vein Crystal is an energy crystal that forms naturally in the nodes of the earth veins. It contains rich earth element energy and is a high-quality material for crafting earth element magical items.

Earth Vein Source Crystal, on the other hand, is the essence of Earth Vein Crystal Marrow, which is formed over a longer period of time from the deeper and purer Earth Vein energy.

Its energy density is dozens of times that of earth vein crystal marrow, and its energy purity far exceeds that of the latter.

It is perfect for strengthening the Heaven-Turning Seal.

There are also Sun Essence Gold and Melting Heart Jade.

Both of these items are rare fire element materials that can be used to strengthen the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover.

Both the Heaven-Turning Seal and the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover are very handy Xuan artifacts, and Anton had long had the idea of ​​refining them into spiritual artifacts.

For this reason, he has been having the clan collect materials during this period.

Now that we have these materials, things are much easier.
