The Coiling Dragon Formation that protected the Dragon World was formed by the five dragon regions.
Each dragon region guarded an area and was extremely important.
Each dragon region had a massive planet and ten ancient cities built in the starry sky.
For example, the Torch Dragon Domain was formed by Planet Torch Dragon and ten dragon cities.
Be it Planet Torch Dragon or the ten dragon cities, they were the core of the Coiling Dragon Formation. Their positions were special and extremely crucial.
Long Ran was in Beacon City, one of the ten dragon cities in the Torch Dragon Domain.
Su Zimo and monkey followed Long Li to the Torch Dragon Domain. Along the way, they listened to Long Li talk about Long Ran.
"Can this Coiling Dragon Formation defend against Imperial Lords?"
Monkey was curious.
"It can't."
Long Li shook his head slightly. "However, if an Imperial Lord expert appears outside the Dragon World and attacks the Coiling Dragon Formation, the Imperial Lords of the Dragons will sense it and appear immediately."
"Furthermore, ever since the previous war of the Emperors, both sides suffered heavy losses. The Imperial Lords are wary of each other and rarely attack."
After pausing for a moment, Long Li said, "Brother Su, don't worry. Although the army of the Wutong World is aggressive, it's still extremely difficult for them to break through the Coiling Dragon Formation. Long Ran won't be in any danger in Beacon City."
With Long Li leading the way, the three of them were unobstructed in the Torch Dragon Domain.
Along the way, they encountered some other Dragons that did attract some strange gazes mixed with hostility. However, those Dragons recognized Long Li's identity and did not say anything.
About half a day later, the three of them arrived at Beacon City.
From afar, Beacon City looked like a massive object standing in the starry sky.
Although it was only a city, its size and area were not inferior to the four great Immortal Kingdoms of the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain!
When they got close, they could clearly see the huge scarlet rocks piled up on the city walls of Beacon City. There were some traces of swords and flames on them.
Long Li should have come to look for Long Ran a few times and was familiar with the place. He led Su Zimo and monkey towards Long Ran's cave abode.
Walking on the streets of Beacon City, Su Zimo spread out his Divine Sense to investigate.
Each of the Four Great Celestial Kingdoms in the Divine Firmament Celestial Realm had a population of several billion.
In this city of Dragons, which was comparable to the Four Great Immortal Kingdoms, there were only tens of thousands of dragons in the southern region of the city.
Based on this calculation, there were only a few hundred thousand Dragons in the entire Beacon City.
The scarcity of Dragons was evident from this.
Under such circumstances, they really couldn't afford the consumption of a realm war.
Just as Su Zimo was pondering, his heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have sensed something and looked at a team of Dragons passing by not far away.
The leader of this group was a tall man with a head full of red hair. His face was rough, and his eyes were like torches. He was patrolling the area.
When he saw that person, Su Zimo stopped in his tracks instinctively and smiled.
The red-haired man seemed to have sensed something and turned his head to look.
Their eyes met.
The red-haired man froze on the spot.
At first, the red-haired man's face was still a little blank. For a moment, he didn't dare to believe it. But soon, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face!
"Zimo!"
The red-haired man shouted and could not help but burst into laughter.
"Red-headed ghost!"
Su Zimo replied with a smile as well.
The red-haired man was none other than the red-headed ghost, Long Ran!
Long Ran rushed over in huge strides and hugged Su Zimo without caring about the gazes of others. His face was filled with excitement as he laughed non-stop.
"Good lad, you've finally … Psst!"
Long Ran hammered Su Zimo's chest heavily. However, his expression changed as he gasped and his mouth twitched in pain.
"Cough, cough. You're finally willing to look for me!"
Long Ran coughed gently and retracted his red and swollen palm without a trace, saying as though nothing had happened, "I heard that you're really mighty outside. You're the number one True Spirit in history."
Before Su Zimo could say anything, Long Li suddenly interrupted from the side and looked at Long Ran with a frown. "What did you call him? Zimo?"
Long Ran was very smart. He rolled his eyes and instantly reacted.
However, he was excited to reunite with Su Zimo and did not think too much about it.
When he heard Long Li's question, he laughed and said, "Well, his surname is Su and his name is Zhu. His name is Zimo …"
That made sense. However, Long Li was not that easy to fool. He looked at Su Zimo doubtfully with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
"My name is indeed Su Zimo."
Su Zimo did not continue hiding and explained, "Back then, I was hunted down in the Heaven realm and had no choice but to change my name to Su Zhu to cultivate in the Sword World."
That was not a secret to begin with. After entering the Grotto-Heaven realm, there was even less need for Su Zimo to hide.
Moreover, Long Li trusted him very much. If he continued to be secretive, he would not be honest enough.
Long Li was not angered because of that. However, he still clenched his fists and pretended to threaten, "You've already lied to me twice. If I find out that there's a next time … hmph!"
Su Zimo smiled and looked at Long Ran. Sweeping with his spirit consciousness, he chuckled. "Red-headed ghost, your cultivation speed has lagged. You've only just entered the True Self realm."
The two of them had always been like that. They often bickered at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley and it was nothing much for them to make fun of each other.
If they were in Tianhuang Mainland, Long Ran would have retaliated long ago.
Now that he heard Su Zimo's words, Long Ran seemed to be touched and gradually retracted his smile. "Indeed, I can't compare to others after ascending."
"All these years, if not for Little Sister Long Li's help, I would still be at the Divine Essence realm." “
Let's go to my cave abode and have a chat. Let's drink a few jars of good wine! "
Long Ran conversed with the Dragons behind him before waving his hand and leaving with Su Zimo and the other two.
"Commander Long Ran actually knows those two foreign races and has a good relationship with them?"
"Hehe, he's someone who ascended from the lower world after all. He befriends anyone."
"There are many clansmen with higher cultivation backgrounds than him in Beacon City. I wonder what the City Lord sees in him."
Not long after Long Ran left, some of the Dragons in the group began discussing.
Even Long Ran could hear them, let alone Su Zimo and monkey.
However, his expression was normal, as though he did not hear anything.
It was only after he brought the three of them back to his cave abode that Long Ran sighed softly. "When I first ascended, the Dragon World was not like this. The Dragons did not look down on their clansmen who ascended from the lower world either."
"Although the Dragons at that time thought highly of themselves, they did not have any inexplicable hostility towards foreign races nor did they want to kill them. However, all these years …"
Su Zimo said in a low voice, "I'm here this time round because I want to take you away."
Initially, he only had an idea. Now that he was in the Dragon World and saw the situation around him, he was even more certain of this idea.
All these years, Long Ran was extremely disappointed in the Dragons and did not have much attachment to the Dragon World.
However, he was still hesitant to leave with a great battle ahead of them.
"Since we have the chance to leave, let's go."
Long Li sighed as well. "If this continues, no one knows how long the Dragon World can last."
"Is there no possibility of stopping the battle?"
Long Ran asked.
Long Li shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Both sides have lost Emperors and are already at war. Who has the face and ability to stop a battle that involves hundreds of realms?"
"Unless an Emperor descends … or perhaps Emperor Araki Takeshi of the great wilderness appears."
"What the hell?"
Long Ran's ears perked up. He looked at Su Zimo and then at Long Li and asked with widened eyes, "Araki Takeshi?"
