Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 268 Terrifying Dragon Beast

"After another three months of sailing, we've finally arrived."

Through the virtual view of the spaceship's exterior, Bai Yang finally saw his target planet.

The Primal Secret Realm is closest to the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company, and they are located in the same universe country.

Secondly, there's the Primordial Secret Realm, but it takes three months to get there.

The universe is so vast, but fortunately there is a virtual universe, so it doesn't hinder his cultivation.

Dragon Tower Star is an ancient planet that was born in the Primordial Secret Realm.

In a normal star system, a planet as large as Dragon Tower would not exist.

However, nurtured by the incredibly rich primordial energy of the cosmic secret realm, the evolution of the original universe took a different turn within this realm, giving birth to many strange celestial bodies and life forms.

Gravity, 10812 times the gravity of Earth.

Nitrogen makes up 98% of the air.

The creatures here are inherently strong; it's almost as if it's destined to be.

No wonder even the weakest baby dragon is cosmic-level.

There are dragons like the Thunder Dragon that prefer physical combat, or dragons like the Human Dragon that prefer soul attacks, or golden dragons that combine both.

The missions on Dragon Tower Star are called "Dragon Hunter Missions".

The task is to kill all the targets listed in the mission log and obtain a certain material from their bodies to take back as a token.

After all targets have been hunted down and you return, you can collect your mission points – 1 points.

Luo Feng had completed the task hastily and hadn't explored the so-called "Dragon Tower" at all.

Whether or not you explore the interior environment during a secret realm mission greatly affects the level of danger.

Bai Yang strongly suspected that the target in this catalog was actually just a drop in the ocean among all the dragon species on the planet.

As soon as his spaceship approached the planet's atmosphere, Bai Yang sensed something unusual.

"It's that feeling of excitement. The dragons here are definitely the kind of dragons that can attract me."

Every cell in Bai Yang's body trembled uncontrollably, and a tremendous desire to devour filled his consciousness.

This is simply incredible considering his control over his body.

This devouring intent is completely inexplicable, just like a true biological instinct.

The seven-colored placenta in his mind was faintly glowing.

His process of using reason to fight against this instinct was actually regarded as an attack, reaching the level of the islands in the Illusionary Sea!

The people from the virtual universe company around him also noticed something was amiss.

A beautiful woman in a purple-haired uniform said sweetly:

"Your Highness Baiyang, what's wrong?"

A light sheen of sweat appeared on Bai Yang's forehead. He forced himself to control his body and managed a smile.

"I'm fine."

The woman looked at him suspiciously and said:

"Your mission has not yet officially begun, if Your Highness has any health problems."

"If we can choose to abandon this, we can return directly."

"It's alright, I'm fine now. The spaceship can land normally."

Bai Yang stood by his decision.

Although he was getting closer and closer to the surface of Ronta Star, his condition was indeed getting better and better.

The fully activated "Spiritual Embryo" gradually adapted to the devouring intent and suppressed it.

Most importantly, what kind of logic is there in running away in a sorry state without even seeing a single dragon?

Seeing that Bai Yang had indeed recovered his spirits, the purple-haired woman did not try to persuade him further.

The entire saucer-shaped spaceship gradually descended towards a technologically advanced palace on the Earth's surface.

This is the headquarters that Virtual Universe Company has set up on Dragon Tower Star.

Every core member who comes to Dragon Tower Star will come here first.

Then, after completing the mission, they would apply for a spaceship to go home from here.

After Bai Yang and the others landed their spaceship, they went straight outside.

There weren't many staff members in the entire palace.

Upon seeing someone come out, someone immediately came forward to greet them respectfully.

"Hello, are you Prince Baiyang from the Primal Secret Realm?"

A middle-aged man with a rather prosperous-looking gray complexion, wearing a tan battle suit, asked him the question.

"Yes, I am Bai Yang."

"Haha, my name is Fangeno. Your Highness, you've finally arrived."

Few princes would choose this pristine, secluded place; we all eagerly await your arrival!

Fangino looked delighted, as if he were very happy to welcome him.

Bai Yang followed behind him, advancing on a huge helipad, heading towards the second floor of the palace.

Fangino explained as he walked:

"Your Highness, please look. We are on the first floor, which is used as a space airport."

All the princes and company ships must transfer here.

Once we went up to the second floor, that was the living area.

Your Highness, you will automatically be given a temporary room there.

Although this is a primitive planet, the conditions in the palace are quite good, and most basic needs can be met.

As for the third floor, that's where the company's senior management resides; we're not allowed to go up there.

Bai Yang's mind stirred, and he asked:

Are there immortal beings residing on Dragon Tower Star?

I see there aren't many people here; it seems a bit deserted.

Fangino replied, "Of course there are. As far as I know, there are 50 immortals stationed here."

We're relatively calm here because it's just too dangerous.

Even the weakest dragons are cosmic-level beings; it would be difficult for cosmic-level princes to encounter them.

There was nothing but fighting, with hardly any chance to catch one's breath.

In addition, the points awarded weren't high, so gradually fewer people came.

Only 50 immortals?

Suppressing such a large planet?

This is absolutely ridiculous.

"Fangno, I see you're also at the cosmic level. Isn't it dangerous here?"

Those dragons all have the ability to traverse the universe, isn't the company worried they'll escape?

Bai Yang wanted to gather as much information as possible for what was to come.

Fangeno laughed and explained, "Your Highness, there's no need to worry about that."

These dragons are not particularly intelligent, but they have a strong sense of territory and almost never leave their own territory.

Unlike the demon race, they cannot be considered an intelligent species. They are merely powerful beasts.

This company site has been cleared out countless years ago. These beasts know this is our territory and dare not come here.

Of course, they will never leave the atmosphere; they will live on the planet forever.

The two quickly entered an elevator and arrived at the second floor.

Fangeno led Baiyang to his residence, a room of five or six hundred square meters, which was indeed quite nice.

Before he left, Bai Yang asked again:

"Fangno, just how many kinds of dragons are there on this planet?"

"I don't know the exact number, but there are definitely several thousand."

Each prince has a different mission objective.

The quests in the Primordial and Primordial Realms differ even more in detail.

As long as you don't encounter a hundred peak-level World Lord dragons, there generally won't be any problems.

"Are there other groups of dragons like this?"

"It happens occasionally."

"Occasionally..."
