This Dragon Lord didn’t consider himself a rival in love, but the indifference after the introduction had already made his attitude clear.
"Hehe..."
Ji Xinghuo suddenly laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Titanium Cobalt Lan turned his head, sowhat puzzled.
"Nothing." Ji Xinghuo shook his head. He was amused that this Titanium Cobalt Keming could never imagine that his rival was on a distant planet, a founder of a nation of a subspecies of humans that he would not even consider significant.
Titanium Cobalt Lan imdiately guessed sothing and gave Ji Xinghuo a look. Here, many things could not be said aloud.
Passing through a corridor, after several checkpoints and gates, validating their identities again and again.
Finally, the two entered the Dragon Breeding Room.
A corridor several kiloters long, over a kiloter high, and hundreds of ters wide, light and transparent. The space on both sides of the corridor was divided into enormous separate areas, each transford into various environnts.
Dense forests, snow-capped peaks, volcano-like molten lava pools, dark space, super-heavy gravity planet surfaces, gravity-free skies, deep ocean trenches, rock caves, and so on, counting in the hundreds.
A True Dragon person dressed in snug silver-white battle attire flew forward and stopped in front of the two, bowing respectfully:
"Lord Titanium Cobalt Lan."
"Lord Ji."
Ji Xinghuo observed the other party, a rare elderly figure among the True Dragon people. Although his skin and figure seed still full of vitality, his eyes could not hide the murkiness of having weathered many hardships. He was already in his twilight years.
True Dragon people have a long lifespan, far surpassing that of Earthlings.
Even unevolved True Dragon people have an average lifespan of about 100 seasons, equivalent to 185 Earth years.
With several evolutions, they could live even longer.
This True Dragon was a Sixth Rank Dragon Lord. Logically, he should be able to live up to 300 seasons, or 550 Earth years.
Ji Xinghuo guessed that the other’s age was very high, likely over 500 years old.
"Uncle Ping."
Titanium Cobalt Lan, following junior etiquette, asked, "It’s been a long ti, any progress in the research at the Dragon Breeding Room recently?"
"Sa as always, everything that could be researched has been researched. My remaining lifespan isn’t much, unlikely any breakthroughs are to be had, just waiting to retire and hand over the Dragon Breeding Room to the younger generation, to walk the last journey of life." Uncle Ping’s tone was flat, resigned yet accepting.
"Uncle Ping can’t just lie down like this. The Titanium Cobalt Dragon Breeding Room still needs you to helm the situation. The king will definitely make a move to extend your life," Titanium Cobalt Lan comforted.
Uncle Ping shook his head, "Extending life is not so easy."
"There will be a way."
Titanium Cobalt Lan turned back to introduce Uncle Ping to Ji Xinghuo.
His full na was "Sha Baoping." Originally just an ordinary True Dragon person, without family or surna, with diocre cultivation talent but greatly insightful in dragon research. Later, he was promoted by the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King to the Dragon Breeding Room and was even granted the opportunity to choose dragons.
Regrettably, Uncle Ping’s talent was too poor. It was only with much difficulty that a Sandstorm Dragon recognized him as the master and helped him embark on the path of evolution.
The Cobalt Titanium Dragon King’s continuous bestowal of various resources only forcibly pushed Uncle Ping to the position of a Sixth Rank Dragon Lord, but he was almost entirely devoid of combat abilities.
He dedicated most of his life to researching dragons, reaping great benefits. The numbers of Titanium Cobalt Dragons and various Sky Dragon Species grew to different extents, increasing the overall strength of the family. The king ordered him to take full charge of the Dragon Breeding Room.
It has been almost five hundred years since then.
Uncle Ping’s lifespan was also nearing its end, and if there were no ans to prolong it, he could live for at most an additional 20 seasons.
"I have received an edict from the king, Lord Ji, that you may choose a dragon in the Dragon Breeding Room." Uncle Ping, looking at Ji Xinghuo, expressed subtle envy and exclaid, "Lord Ji is so young!"
"Please guide , Uncle Ping," Ji Xinghuo also followed junior etiquette with a humble deanor.
"Certainly."
Uncle Ping smiled, "Since you have entered this Dragon Breeding Room, the primary target is of course the Titanium Cobalt Dragon. Follow ."
He led the two through the huge corridor. Ji Xinghuo’s gaze swept across the many Dragon Nests on both sides, seeing nurous dragons.
The dragons in the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Breeding Room were all rare and mighty.
Almost all were Sky Dragon Species.
With Ji Xinghuo’s discerning eyes, many dragons were unrecognizable, but those he could identify were all famously precious species: Thunder Shocking Dragons, Crystal Dragons, Sea-covering Dragons, Soul Capturing Dragons, Earth Core Dragons, Ice Soul Dragons...
It was quite an eye-opener.
A dazzling array of dragons lived in the nests, mostly juvenile, but so were adults with very large bodies.
Each area’s Dragon Nest also had an incubation room, containing many dragon eggs.
The dragons were different, so were their eggs.
"Here we are."
At the deepest part of the corridor, there was a Dragon Nest area ten tis larger than the other areas, with a monotonous interior environnt—a kiloter-high silver-white mountain made entirely of a silver alloy, sterile of any vegetation. Near the summit of the mountain were several caves.
As Ji Xinghuo neared this area, he imdiately perceived the magnetic field strength was thousands of tis higher than elsewhere.
The silver-white mountain was entirely constructed from a Titanium Cobalt series superconductive alloy!
"Three Titanium Cobalt Dragons are all here." Uncle Ping glanced at the caves on the mountain and told Ji Xinghuo, "You can go up and communicate now."
"How do I communicate?" Ji Xinghuo asked.
"Just talk. They understand True Dragon Language," Uncle Ping replied, "Whether a dragon likes you or is willing to recognize you as its master is entirely up to its own will, unless the king commands otherwise, no one can interfere."
