Chapter 1373: Chapter 1373: The First Developnt Symposium of the Dragon Horse Star System
Lan Xuanyu sat silently in place, quietly sensing the fluctuations of soul power within his body, adjusting his dragon power, as if he were in a ditative state. Even Huang Liangwei, sitting before him, could feel his state of ditation at this mont.
In reality, his spiritual power was always sensing everything in the outside world, clearly capturing every detail.
With the advancent of his own cultivation and the use of nurous heavenly treasures, it wasn’t just his own strength that was improving—don’t forget, within his body, there was also a Treasure Hunting Beast.
The Treasure Hunting Beast relied on Lan Xuanyu’s power of the bloodline or the immortal aura to restore its own cultivation. At its peak, the Treasure Hunting Beast was an existence equivalent to the Super God Level.
As Lan Xuanyu’s bloodline gradually fused completely, the Treasure Hunting Beast also experienced a substantial upgrade. The sufficient replenishnt of life energy caused the power of Lan Xuanyu’s Dragon God’s Bloodline to no longer be in the sa depleted state as before. The Treasure Hunting Beast’s absorption no longer posed an issue for his cultivation. Thus, the Treasure Hunting Beast’s strength had been quietly and continuously surging.
Not long ago, it entered a period of secluded cultivation, only awakening in the past few days. The first thing it told Lan Xuanyu was that it had already recovered to the God Rank. Yes, God Rank—equivalent to level-3 deities, the strength of a Rank 10 powerhouse among humans.
Lan Xuanyu himself had not yet reached the God Rank, but the Treasure Hunting Beast had already done so.
Now at the God Rank, all aspects of its abilities had seen comprehensive improvent, particularly in illusions and its treasure-hunting capabilities. Although what it simulated yesterday was an illusion, no one knew that if Lan Xuanyu so desired, that illusion could have real attack power. While not comparable to Lan Xuanyu’s own strength, it certainly would have given the Eight-Ard Demon God Crown Prince a real “surprise.”
Of course, that attack power wasn’t utilized in the end. With its current God Rank capabilities, the Treasure Hunting Beast could simulate the abilities of almost any entity and present a certain level of authenticity. For Lan Xuanyu’s abilities, it could reproduce roughly fifty percent of his power. For other beings, the ratio dropped to around thirty percent.
Additionally, in terms of its illusion skills, if it rely perford transformation illusions, it had almost returned to its peak state. Without God King Level strength, even soone at the level of a Dragon Knight wouldn’t be able to see through its illusions at close range.
Back during its ti in the Divine Realm, the Treasure Hunting Beast had, at its peak as a level-1 god, been able to mimic the Dragon God’s strength to a certain extent and unleash an attack equivalent to fifty percent of the Dragon God’s cultivation. At that ti, it had been an entity entirely on par with any level-1 god!
With its recovery to God Rank cultivation, even its deanor seed to have undergone so transformation. The current Treasure Hunting Beast was visibly more composed, no longer the timid little creature it used to be when facing the Beast King Er Ming.
This was why Lan Xuanyu no longer needed to worry about being exposed by the Dragon Knights or anything alike. With Ah Bao’s transformations, even if it were just an external projection and not his true body, he could remain undetected—though, there were still certain limitations to its range of impact.
The evolution of the Treasure Hunting Beast also provided Lan Xuanyu with one more layer of assurance for his future tribulation to ascend as a god.
The arrival of the Golden Dragon Princess indeed sparked discussions, especially concerning her current physical condition and whether she could continue participating in the Future New Star Challenge tomorrow.
“Dong, dong, dong!” At this mont, three crisp knocks resounded, instantly silencing the hundreds in attendance.
A small door on the side of the inner circle opened, and one figure after another strode out from within.
Leading them was none other than the Sky Horse Sect Leader, followed closely by the Dawn Dragon Knight Zhong Zhichang. Behind them, the Eight-Ard Demon God King strode out.
The Eight-Ard Demon God King appeared completely calm at this mont, his complexion neutral, showing no signs of being affected by the events of the morning.
The rest who followed were representatives of various races, most of whom were the patriarchs of their respective clans. As these ten figures entered, all those present rose to their feet, offering them their full attention.
The Sky Horse Sect Leader took his seat at the main position and, after waiting for the other nine leaders to settle in, nodded slightly. The ten true leaders of the Dragon Horse Galaxy were now all seated.
With a calm expression, the Sky Horse Sect Leader spoke, his voice unhurried and asured. “Alright, today’s eting now comnces.”
He paused for a mont, skipping any grandiose opening remarks but still drawing the undivided attention of everyone in the room.
“The primary purpose of this assembly is to conduct a significant discussion about the future developnt of the Dragon Horse Galaxy. Prior to this eting, I had an in-depth exchange with the Sky Dragon Leader. This ti, we also hope to hear the perspectives of all races, and as quickly as possible, implent resolutions based on the outcos of this conference.”
“There are so matters that do not need to be concealed. Approximately a year ago, we engaged in a war with the Douluo Federation. The conflict ca abruptly, though in truth, we were sowhat prepared for it. However, due to so unique circumstances, we fell into the trap laid by our adversary. The result, as all of you are aware, was costly. Each of you has likely felt it firsthand—the loss of our warships has exceeded one-third. If not for the Douluo Federation’s fear of retaliation from our top-tier powerhouses, it’s highly likely that the Dragon Horse Galaxy today would no longer remain intact.”
“The loss of one-third of our warships represents an accumulation of effort over a millennium. At that ti, both the Sky Dragon Leader and I deeply realized the core issue. Beyond being outwitted by the enemy, the more glaring problem lies in our technological backwardness. In the face of human warships, we were utterly powerless, leading to a crushing defeat. To be blunt, if the Douluo Federation were to launch a full-scale assault, not a single planet under our rule—yours included—would be able to withstand their offensive. Even Sky Horse Star and Sky Dragon Planet wouldn’t survive; they would simply be reduced to ashes under the terrifying onslaught of their artillery. The sole reason the Douluo Federation fears us is because of the sheer power our individuals command. Just as we cannot withstand their warships, their planets cannot endure the invasion of our top-tier powerhouses.”
“In order to change this imbalance, what should we do? This is the critical subject we are here to discuss at this conference. The Sky Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan have already conducted multiple rounds of internal discussions, proposing a series of feasible asures. So of these we have already begun to implent to eliminate our vulnerabilities.”
“Enhancing our scientific and technological research is an imperative. I believe all of you present share this view with us. In terms of technology, we lag far behind the Douluo Federation. However, when it cos to resources, even several Douluo Federations combined cannot compare to us. With such abundant resources at our disposal, as long as we put our technology research on the right track, I believe it won’t take long before we surpass them. And when that day cos, it will mark the mont of the Douluo Federation’s destruction.”
The Sky Horse Sect Leader’s tone remained composed. Yet as his words resonated, the gathered representatives of all races nodded in agreent. The technological disparity had indeed been a bitter pill for them. The loss of the previous federal fleet had struck heavily across all major races. Only the Sky Domination Clan had suffered comparatively minor losses, while the others had faced devastating setbacks.
The Sky Horse Sect Leader continued, “Thus, advancing our scientific research and rapidly enhancing our technology is the way forward for the developnt of the Dragon Horse Galaxy. It is a path we must take. Those who fall behind are destined to be beaten. We cannot predict when the Douluo Federation might develop technologies targeting our individual strengths. Even if not aid directly at attacking us, a re defensive technology allowing their administrative planets to withstand our top-tier individual attacks would spell disaster for us. After all, none of us can endure the firepower of their motherships.”
