What happened during the ceremony greatly stimulated Boris and Leona. From that day onwards, they practiced Draconic Aura exceptionally hard. At the same time, they would often consult Garon about various problems.
Garon also taught them without reservation. His knowledge was so rich that the two little fellows had the misconception that he was an experienced old dragon.
Whatever problems they encountered, it seemed like nothing could stump Garon.
More than a month had passed by slowly.
The Third Elder stabilized the situation and imprisoned the Great Elder and the Second Elder. At the same time, he announced the official alliance with the Deladia Empire. The princes and princesses of the empire would come to the clan to select partners for the Eternal Contract.
The Eternal Contract was different from the usual Soul Contract. This was a contract that was signed at the cost of life link. It was a powerful agreement that could only be signed once in a living being's lifetime.
It did not have any other uses. The only use it had was to share life.
In other words, all the lives of the dragons and humans who signed the Eternal Contract would be treated as one. After that, they would be equally divided into two parts. This was undoubtedly extremely unfair to the dragons whose lifespan far exceeded that of the humans.
Because of this, the lifespan of the dragons would be reduced to at least half. Compared to the lifespan of the humans, most of the time, it was not even a fraction of the dragons' lifespan.
Even the weakest dragon could live for at least a thousand years.
This rule caused many White Dragons to be dissatisfied. As the high and mighty dragon race, no dragon would be willing to sign a contract unless it was a special Level Six professional or above.
However, the Deladia Empire took the initiative to explain that only the princes and princesses with potential would sign the Eternal Contract with them. It would not be difficult for a genius with potential and a noble status to become a Level Six professional in the future.
There were actually many princes and princesses in the Deladia Empire. There were at least a hundred of them. The geniuses selected from this group were not bad. However, because there were too many of them, even if they had a noble status, they were not very valued in the country.
If they could find a powerful White Dragon to sign a contract with, their status would be greatly stabilized.
Therefore, this activity was quickly carried out in the clan. However, it was only limited to adult White Dragons. This was because that was the strongest foundation and strength that could be formed in the fastest time. The humans did not have the time to wait for dozens of years for the Young Dragons to mature. As for the Young Dragons, it was even more impossible.
Therefore, this change did not affect Garon much.
He was still cultivating in his own cave. His Draconic Aura had finally reached Level Five due to the increase in potential points. What was out of his expectations was that after his hard work and the investment of all his potential points, he had only managed to reach Level Five after spending the last ten potential points he had accumulated.
The Draconic Aura after Level Five seemed to require some special environmental stimulation to level up, and it seemed to be a qualitative change. Like all the other professions, Level Six seemed to be a watershed.
The other thing that changed was that his physical attributes finally showed signs of an increase in the requirement of potential points.
Previously, the Dragon dragon dragon dragon dragon Draconic, but now it had directly increased Aura had Draconic Aura. It was as if his body had undergone a qualitative change, and the potential points he had in the past were no longer of much use.
After all, Garen's current average attributes had already exceeded 50 points. . were were were were Level Level..
The normal standard of an adult White Dragon was between thirty to forty. His current standard had far exceeded the normal standard.
According to Garon's secret observation, in the entire White Dragon Clan, perhaps only the strongest warrior, Phosphorus, and the five Ice Dragon Guards under his command were stronger than him. He could not see how strong Phosphorus was, but he was at least Level Nine. As a warrior, it was impossible for him to dare to go against the Third Elder who was almost Level Ten if he did not have the confidence.
If the Elder and the Divine Scepter were the highest combat power in the clan, then Phosphorus and his Ice Dragon Guards were the strongest pillars and confidence of the clan. The military power was in Phosphorus's hands. All the Dragon Guards, including the training of the Youth Class, were arranged by Phosphorus.
Not long after cultivating in the cave, Garon received an invitation. It was an invitation from the Third Elder.
The Third Elder's grandson had given him face the last time and let Boris and Leona go. This time, he had to pay a return visit no matter what as a form of gratitude.
After all, this was a political struggle, the cruelest of all. The reason why he did not eliminate them was because he did not want to destroy his feelings for the clan.
After packing up, he brought along a few small gifts. They were the crystal cores of the Giant Frost Lizards that Garon had gone out to hunt. He had not completely absorbed all of them, so he kept a few as backup. Now it was just the right time to use them.
Now it was just the right time to give them out as small gifts.
Garon went out of the cave immediately and followed the Dragon Guards to the highest point of the Elder's Peak.
A white ice palace was being built there at some point in time. Many human and dwarf craftsmen were working hard on it. There were White Dragons flying around as protection at all times.
Seeing Garon and the other two dragons flying up, these people were not surprised. They had been here for a while and were used to it.
They flew to the back of the palace and soon landed at the entrance of a large cave with many ice stalagmites. The sharp ice stalagmites wrapped around the entrance of the cave. The tips of the stalagmites were like dangerous spikes that were all aimed at the entrance of the cave. It was as if a sharp sword was hanging over the head of every creature that entered.
"Please come in. The Elder is waiting for you inside," the Dragon Guard said to Garon in a low voice.
Garon nodded and folded his wings. He strode into the cave.
Bang, bang, bang.
His heavy footsteps did not leave any traces on the ground of the cave. The ground here had been trampled by the White Dragons countless times and was so sturdy that it was terrifying.
There were two Dragon Guards standing guard on both sides of the cave every few hundred meters. When they saw Garon coming in, these Dragon Guards woke up from their nap. They only glanced at him briefly before they returned to their senses and continued to rest. They were obviously here to rest as well as to protect his safety.
Waves of powerful Draconic Aura filled the entire cave.
Along the way, Garen had encountered five Dragon Guards whose Draconic Aura was at least Level Six and above, which made him secretly shocked. It was obvious that the strength of the Third Elder's subordinates did not weaken just because the other two Great Elders had weakened.
The pure white cave with a faint blue color extended for several kilometers. Garon finally saw the Third Elder talking to a human in a patio cave.
The sunlight from the patio shone down, forming a beam of light that landed on the Third Elder's old dragon scales. It added a white halo to him, which seemed to make him look younger.
The person standing in front of him and talking to him was about 1.8 meters tall. He was considered average among ordinary humans. However, he wore a golden cloak and dark golden full-body armor underneath. At his waist was a powerful sword inlaid with colorless crystals. The most eye-catching thing was the round crown on his head that was inlaid with golden gems.
As soon as Garon walked in, the man's and the Third Elder's gazes shifted to Garon at the same time.
Swoosh!
It was as if two burning lasers had landed on his skin consecutively. Garen could only feel his entire body trembling violently. Suddenly, he could not hear anything in his ears. All he could hear was a buzzing sound that sounded like thunder. Slight internal injuries appeared in his body in an instant.
He quickly released his Draconic Aura, enveloping his body in a defensive force field. His Draconic Aura was raised from Level Three to Level Four. Only then did he manage to offset the terrifying aura from the two's gazes.
His heart trembled. It was obvious that he had come in at the wrong time. The Third Elder and this King were obviously pressuring each other to show off their strength as a bargaining chip. As soon as he came in, the terrifying aura of the two Level Nine experts landed on him. This was the main reason why he almost vomited blood.
"It's Garon?" The Third Elder was the first to withdraw his aura.
The other man smiled and withdrew his aura. It was as if he had turned from a prehistoric giant beast into an ordinary middle-aged man.
He had a small black beard on his chin. His short black hair was neat and clean. He looked cold and serious. Even when he smiled, he gave off a dignified and unapproachable feeling.
"So, King Thunderclap, how about we settle the matter we discussed?" The Third Elder looked at the King.
"You're talking about this little White Dragon in front of us?" The King asked with a hint of playfulness.
"Of course." The Third Elder said with a hint of pride, "Garon is the most talented White Dragon in our clan. He'll definitely satisfy your request."
"Request?" Garon narrowed his eyes. He had a vague feeling that the matter they were discussing had something to do with him. "Excuse me, Elder. Do you have any orders for me to come here?"
He had a bad feeling when he thought about the Eternal Contract that had been spreading like wildfire recently.
"I need to observe for a while," the King replied in a low voice. "You know that my choice also includes the Black Dragon and the Red Dragon."
"Honorable King Gus, you won't be disappointed if you choose Garon. I believe that even in the other dragon clans, there aren't many geniuses who can be compared to Garon."
"But you have to know that the Black Dragon is naturally immune to all spells below Level Seven. They're twice as strong as the White Dragon's young dragon of the same age. The Purple Dragon's magic ability is equivalent to a Level Seven Great Wizard when it matures. These are better choices for me," Gus said with a smile.
"But will the other dragon clans agree to sign an Eternal Contract with you?" The Third Elder smiled.
Indeed, both of them understood that if the White Dragon Clan had not been forced into a corner and was at the end of their rope, they would not have chosen to become a vassal of the Deladia Empire and sign an Eternal Contract with the short-lived humans.
Because of this, their branch of the White Dragon Clan would become the disgrace of the White Dragon Mountain and the entire dragon clan. They would abandon their nobility and pride as a long-lived species. They would be spurned by the other dragon clans in the future.
Such a price could not be said to be light.
That was why the Great Elder and the Second Elder had always been against it. However, they did not expect the Third Elder to secretly collude with the top powerhouses of the humans and imprison both of them in an instant. If it were not for the fact that both of them were too powerful and had loyal subordinates, the Third Elder would have killed them long ago.
The King smiled and shook his head. He looked at Garon.
"There's no rush for now." Even if he wanted to sign an Eternal Contract, he had to find a dragon that was useful to him. After all, they would live and die together. If the White Dragon here was weak and killed, would he not be killed instantly too?
"Then you should think about it more. As a Peak Powerhouse, your lifespan is at least three hundred years. The more talented the dragon clan, the longer their lifespan. It'll definitely be very beneficial to you," the Third Elder continued to promote.
