Chapter 1079: Chapter 1076: The Aspect of Temperant Chapter 1079: Chapter 1076: The Aspect of Temperant The Royal Sapphire Dragon is a type of Gemstone Dragon.
This Gemstone Dragon produces gemstones whose color is known as royal blue. The color saturation of royal blue is very high, rich and bright, and under the illumination of the sun, it casts a shimring halo. Upon closer observation, one can see the deep blue also carries subtle hints of gorgeous purple.
It is nad “royal” because this type of Gemstone Dragon is a symbol of the Blue Dragon Empire. It is said that the First Emperor was a Royal Sapphire Dragon Knight.
After he founded the Blue Dragon Empire and declared himself Emperor, his mount was called the Royal Sapphire Dragon.
“The Royal Sapphire Dragon is not only noble in na, but the gemstones it produces are also worthy of such an aristocratic title…”
Li Si Te searched for the Royal Sapphire Dragon while recalling information about this type of dragon: “The sapphire possesses sturdy magic properties; it can greatly enhance magic and Dou Qi, amplifying the combat power of the user… It may offer less of a boost to Sky Knights, but outfitting Earth Knights, it could undoubtedly double the combat power of the Knight Order.”
If a comparison must be made, the Royal Sapphire Dragon is roughly equivalent to the Magic tal Dragon among the tal Dragons—its combat prowess might not compare, but its actual value is similar.
“Roar!”
Grey Iron Dragon Ornn did not sense the presence of the Royal Sapphire Dragon, but it expressed serious dissatisfaction with Li Si Te, who was currently obsessed with finding the Royal Sapphire Dragon.
However, since Mind Branding had been successful, he didn’t care too much about Ornn’s bit of discontent.
“Let’s keep moving, Ornn. There will be more and more of such matters in the future; you need to get used to it early on. I am the King of the Fla Kingdom, the future Emperor of the Fla Imperial, destined to unite the Legendary Continent and Mafa Continent, building a civilization spanning the entire planet… All dragons are reserved by !”
“Roar!”
Ornn was powerless to complain about such thick-skinned thoughts.
The mountains grew higher and the snow increased; they were nearly at the boundary between the Eagle Kingdom and the Yellowstone Kingdom. The geographic and climatic conditions were sowhat similar to the Earth’s Sichuan-Tibet Line area, but below the snow line, there was still lush, dense vegetation.
“If we move forward, we’ll be entering the highlands and crossing into the Yellowstone Kingdom.” He employed the Eye of Magic to carefully inspect the snow-capped mountains and dense forests below, “The Threads of Destiny are clearly leading to the Royal Sapphire Dragon, but they cannot give an exact location.”
The Power of Destiny, represented by the Threads of Destiny, is not a precise tracker, but a mystical feeling.
He needed to rely on Ornn’s draconic senses to pinpoint the location: “Let’s wander around this snow mountain range. Pay careful attention and see if you can sense the location of the Royal Sapphire Dragon.”
“Roar!”
“Don’t rush the search. With our speed flying carpet-like across the area, we will eventually sense it.”
“Roar!”
“Do you an to say if the Royal Sapphire Dragon is hiding in a cave, it would interfere with your sensing range… Let’s search first, in any case. We have plenty of ti. For the Royal Sapphire Dragon, spending ten days to half a month is quite typical.” Li Si Te naturally would not be swayed in his commitnt to a new dragon.
Even if it takes a year and a half here, as long as he can obtain the Royal Sapphire Dragon, it would be worth it!
This search lasted for five days.
He felt that the Royal Sapphire Dragon was nearby, but no matter how many trips they made, Ornn just could not trigger the mutual sensing between dragons.
“We can roughly lock it down; within an 800-kiloter radius with this place as the center, the Royal Sapphire Dragon must exist. But, for so reason, our carpet-style search yields no feedback, the Eye of Magic sees no response light, and Ornn cannot sense the other party.”
After a fruitless first search, Li Si Te decisively started the second round: “Let’s go again, Ornn. This ti, let’s conduct the carpet search using fifty kiloters as the minimum sensing range. Even if the Royal Sapphire Dragon can hide its aura, it can’t possibly be less than fifty kiloters.”
Normally, the sensing range between dragons is around one to two hundred kiloters, and it rarely ever drops below a hundred kiloters.
At the mont, the only dragon Li Si Te knew of that could reduce its sensing range to fifteen kiloters by utilizing the boundaries of matter was the Formless Dragon Bard.
No matter how noble the na of the Royal Sapphire Dragon, it is still a Gemstone Dragon and cannot compare to a Sacred Dragon.
Two weeks later, the fifty-kiloter carpet search ca to an end, still without locating the Royal Sapphire Dragon. Standing atop a snow mountain, Ornn lay languidly on the snow, yawning, then fell into a deep sleep—it never showed much enthusiasm for searching for the Sapphire Dragon.
Li Si Te jumped down from Dragon Tooth Platform, standing in knee-deep snow, gazed at the vast expanse of white snow-capped mountains and lush valleys, his brow deeply furrowed.
“The Threads of Destiny always point to this place, so why can’t I find the Royal Sapphire Dragon?”
“According to the rules of the Smoke Mission from before, I’ve completed the prerequisite task ‘Mind Branding of Grey Iron Dragon Ornn to perfection’; I should basically be at the stage of receiving rewards now, it shouldn’t be delayed this long… Could it be that the Royal Sapphire Dragon can really shield itself from dragon sensing?”
Thinking.
He pulled out an object resembling a mirror from his Space Ring, which was the Magical Weaving Compass brought by Lerald・Truth.
This piece of Magic Equipnt could detect surrounding Advanced Magic Power.
However, the compass, once activated, only reflected the shimring light from Li Si Te and Ornn—one man and one dragon: “No use, the Magical Weaving Compass hasn’t been helpful after two carpet searches; its sensing range is far weaker than the dragons’.”
Packing away the Magical Weaving Compass, he then took out a Shattered Crystal Blade, unleashed a flow of Dou Qi, and blew away the surrounding snow, preparing to set up camp and rest. The strangely shaped greatsword, embedded with densely packed crystals, glimred brilliantly under the sunlight.
Against the backdrop of the Strange Greatsword, Li Si Te appeared full of heroic vigor.
He was wearing a set of Magical Beast Leather Armor made from the hide of the Advanced Magical Beast – Golden Leopard; its defense might not be particularly strong, but the shimring golden patterns, embellished with Magic tal, were definitely top-notch in appearance—by now, Li Si Te had long since stopped pursuing external power.
Any equipnt’s defense, even if made from Dragon Scales, could not match that of his Phoenix Incarnation.
Any weapon’s sharpness, even if forged from the teeth or souls of a dragon, could not surpass the sharpness of Bone Dragon Vinnie’s mitic Bone Dragon Sword, or the Fire Dragon Lance of Fire Dragon Leo.
The Shattered Crystal Blade and Golden Leather Armor were rely eye-catching accessories, highlighting the majesty of a king.
Looking up at the brilliant Sun overhead, Li Si Te dropped his worries of not finding the Royal Sapphire Dragon, wanting to recite a poem towards the expansive snowy mountains: “The northern landscape, covered in ice, a thousand miles of freeze, ten thousand miles…”
Before he could finish his words.
On top of a distant snow mountain he was gazing at, suddenly an impressive deep blue color rose up, flying towards the sky in the sunlight. Even from a great distance, he could see clearly that it was a blue Dragon, dancing joyfully in the sky. It might have been an illusion, but as the Dragon danced, it seed to leave behind a slowly dissipating trail of pale blue.
“Quick, wake up, Ornn!”
Li Si Te hastily put away the Shattered Crystal Blade and jumped onto Ornn’s Dragon Tooth Platform: “The Royal Sapphire Dragon has appeared, let’s chase after it!”
“Roar!”
Ornn flapped its wings, kicking off with its hind legs, shooting into the sky like a grey-white arrow.
The wind howled past his ears, Li Si Te’s smile hung at the corner of his mouth, his gaze firmly fixed on the distant blue figure, continuing to choose to recite poetry: “Endless searching to no avail, yet it arrives without effort at all!”
