"What happened?"
Long Yan asked in confusion when he saw that Xiao Chen was deep in thought.
Xiao Chen said softly, "I thought of something, and I've seen enough. Let's go. I still haven't asked, where can the army's transportation formation send me? "
The two chatted as they walked. Long Yan said, "The furthest it can go is to the borders of the Divine Dragon Empire. After that, you can cross a desert and enter the Divine Dragon Empire."
Xiao Chen frowned slightly. Then, he said sullenly, "There's no other way. Directly teleport into the Divine Dragon Empire?"
Long Yan shook his head and said, "No. Only a trans-realm transportation formation can do that. The trans-realm transportation formation is controlled by the Yan Imperial Hall. Hence, it will be somewhat difficult. However, it will be more convenient for you to go to the Divine Dragon Empire. "
Xiao Chen thought about it and felt that it was okay.
Even if Xiao Chen could teleport to the Divine Dragon Empire, he did not know which city he would end up in.
Xiao Chen knew too little about the Dragon Race.
After slowly familiarizing himself with it, he had to properly plan how he was going to walk the path of the Dragon Clan.
Boom!
At this moment, the ground trembled slightly. A war chariot was carrying a mountain-sized rock beast. He slowly drove towards the military camp, escorted by thousands of people.
Enthusiastic cheers sounded in the barracks when they saw the huge beast enter.
Xiao Chen could not help but take a few more glances.
"That's a Hill Giant Demon, a Holy Venerate-level ferocious beast. It is said to be unrivaled among its peers. It is worshipped by the northern barbarians as a divine beast. Usually, killing this kind of ferocious beast signifies a great victory against the barbarians. "
A smile appeared on Long Yan's face as he explained to Xiao Chen.
The atmosphere in the military camp made Xiao Chen a little envious. Live and die together, advance and retreat together, share the glory with your son.
"We're here. I'll get someone to set up the formation."
A moment later, the two came to an open space in the army. Long Yan called out.
Hua!
Thirty-eight war chariots came from different directions at an extremely fast speed, like flowing lights and phantoms.
After a few breaths, the chariot was pieced together to form a Dao Platform with complicated runes.
Sou sou sou!
Many martial artists flew out from the war chariots, holding war flags that shone with radiance and inserted them into the Dao Platform.
Immediately, flowing light overflowed in all directions. Thirty-eight white rainbows descended from the sky. Auspicious energy swirled in the air, and a rain of flowers bloomed.
A Daoist gate rose up from the center of the garden and stood erect amidst the rain of flowers.
The teleportation array, which should have been incomparably complicated, was constructed so easily and quickly. It was indeed an eye-opener.
Xiao Chen didn't have time to continue admiring it. He had to go on the road.
"This is some information on the Divine Dragon Empire. Father has been collecting it for you. There are also maps and some Spirit Jades. You might need them on the way."
Before leaving, Long Yan handed over the items that the Soaring Dragon Marquis had prepared for Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen didn't stand on ceremony. After accepting it, he cupped his hands and said, "We'll meet again if fate wills it."
"See you later."
Xiu!
With a light tap of his feet, Xiao Chen's body was as light as a swallow. Dressed in white, he slowly entered the Gate of Dao.
Her movement technique was elegant and light like a dream.
It was just like when Xiao Chen was in the Yanwu Dynasty. With a gentle tap, before ripples could appear and Xiao Chen could appreciate the boundless charm of the dynasty, he left.
Xiao Chen's trip to the Yanwu Dynasty came to an end.
Half a month later:
A vast, boundless desert appeared before Xiao Chen at the border between the Divine Dragon Empire and the Yanwu Dynasty.
Heavy rain fell from the sky. Black clouds spread out, lightning flashed, and thunder roared.
Xiao Chen was about to enter the Dragon Race's territory, but the weather was not good. This was rather strange. It rarely rained in the desert.
Once it did, it would last for several months, even half a year.
The sudden heavy rain and bad weather seemed to foretell a bumpy road ahead.
As Xiao Chen looked at the desert amid the heavy rain, he felt rueful.
Counting carefully, it had already been four years since he left the abandoned land, the Kunlun Realm.
After four years, he was finally about to step into the Dragon Race's homeland. The promise he made to the old Dragon Horse in the Blue Dragon Palace flashed before his eyes.
When Xiao Chen thought about it, a clear scene appeared in his mind.
It seemed very close yet very far at the same time.
If the Kunlun Realm's Dragon's Gate disciples knew that Xiao Chen was about to step into the Divine Dragon Empire, what would they think?
If those old friends of his knew that Xiao Chen had already gone very far, they would probably wish him well.
In a short four years, Xiao Chen advanced from a Veritable Essence Stage disciple to a Cloud Sea Star Venerate.
Xiao Chen finally gained the qualifications to step into this Central Great Realm and compete with the most resplendent outstanding talents of this era.
The effort and sorrow that Xiao Chen had put in were hard to imagine.
Xiao Chen walked step by step with trepidation.
He had suffered humiliation, suffered disdain, fought schemes, and struggled to survive in the hands of Holy Venerates.
Today, the dragon returned to its homeland. Xiao Chen finally arrived in the Divine Dragon Empire.
Instead of riding the Demon Blood Vulture, Xiao Chen walked to this desolate desert that belonged to the Divine Dragon Empire.
This was the start of the next part of Xiao Chen's journey.
As Xiao Chen draped a conical bamboo hat in the heavy rain, his steps were steady, and his eyes were resolute without any hesitation.
When the heavy rain stopped, Xiao Chen walked and stopped, calming his emotions in the heavy rain.
At the same time, he checked the information that the Soaring Dragon Marquis left for him.
Right now, the Divine Dragon Empire's territory was about one percent of the Yanwu Dynasty's. Of course, that only included the Central Great Realm.
It did not include the other subordinate realms of the Dragon Race outside the Central Great Realm.
Just like how the Soaring Dragon Marquis had the Soaring Dragon Great Realm, the Divine Dragon Empire had many subordinate realms.
However, compared to the Yanwu Dynasty, its population was somewhat "pitiful."
The Yanwu Dynasty had tens of billions of people, but the Divine Dragon Empire barely had one hundred million. This was mainly because only cultivators with the Dragon Race bloodline could be considered part of the Divine Dragon Empire's population.
The eight great empires were all like this, founded on bloodlines.
For the sake of maintaining the purity of their bloodlines, they maintained their independence and did not accept outsiders.
The four dynasties were more casual. Aside from cultivators, they also had a large number of ordinary people.
The empires could not compare to the dynasties in terms of population.
The Yanwu Dynasty had one hundred eight provinces. Each province governed one hundred counties. The size of a county was almost the size of a large world in the outside world.
The Divine Dragon Empire had only seven provinces. The Six Colored Divine Dragons each ruled a province, and the Dragon Emperor ruled another province.
Aside from this, there were many independent counties scattered throughout the empire's territory, managed by the Dragon Race factions with slightly lower bloodlines.
Overall, the Divine Dragon Empire had about one thousand counties.
Unlike the dynasties, the Six Colored Divine Dragons were like feudal lords within the Dragon Race, possessing strong independence.
For example, even the Dragon Emperor could not interfere with the internal affairs of the White Dragon Race.
The Dragon Emperor was revered as the Dragon God, the leader of the Dragon Race in name. Right now, the Dragon Emperor did not have as much authority as the dynasty's Holy Emperor.
However, he controlled an additional province. Furthermore, with the title of Dragon Emperor, he still wielded great authority.
Right now, the Dragon Emperor was the Golden Dragon Race's Clan Head of the Six Colored Divine Dragons. He had already been on the throne for one thousand years.
The Golden Dragon Race was currently the strongest and noblest bloodline in the Dragon Race.
Based on the Soaring Dragon Marquis's information, the Dragon Race determined status and rank based on bloodline.
The Golden Dragon Race was undoubtedly the top bloodline.
Next were the remaining Divine Dragons without Bloodlines. Next were the cultivators with only True Dragon bloodlines.
Furthermore, the Dragon Race bloodlines were extremely thin. There were all sorts of them, and they were collectively known as mixed-blood dragons.
If one's background was not good, it might affect their future.
Although there were some mixed-blood dragons who managed to turn the tides and held high positions in the empire, they were known as Heaven Dragons.
However, this did not change the fact that the Dragon Race, which was the most populous, had low status.
Xiao Chen frowned slightly. Honestly speaking, he did not like the idea of a hero being determined by one's background and bloodline.
However, what surprised Xiao Chen was that even the Soaring Dragon Marquis's information did not mention the Blue Dragon bloodline.
The information that the Soaring Dragon Marquis could collect in the Yanwu Dynasty was already very high.
However, the Soaring Dragon Marquis still could not find any information on the Blue Dragon bloodline.
In the end, it was only in an unremarkable corner. The Blue Dragon bloodline was once the strongest of the Dragon Race. Now, it no longer exists, and the details are unknown.
The words were blurry, and Xiao Chen only read one sentence.
Soon, it was the introduction of the other Dragon Race. Xiao Chen had accidentally overlooked it.
The rain had not stopped yet. Xiao Chen closed the information. Under the heavy rain, he felt somewhat lonely for some reason.
After so much difficulty, he arrived in the Divine Dragon Empire.
However, not a single member of his race was here. Even the people of the Dragon Race did not know that the Blue Dragon bloodline once existed.
The dragon returned home with lofty aspirations.
However, in this nation of one thousand counties, the Blue Dragon bloodline only exists, only I exist!
