"Whoosh … whoosh …"
Lu Sheng flapped his wings slowly. He flew along the shore for some distance. Still, he did not see anyone.
He decided to turn around and fly inland.
The young dragon was not fast. He cast Lighten on himself to lighten his weight and increase his speed. After flying for more than two hours, he finally saw a huge white city between two mountains. It was grand and tall.
There was an endless stream of people and carriages coming and going from both sides of the city.
'This is it!' Lu Sheng was satisfied. This place seemed to have a lot of resources.
'Then, I'll find a place nearby to build my nest. Then, I'll look for people to purchase antiques with rich Mental Energy. '
Building a Wizard Tower required a lot of materials. Naturally, it was more convenient to find a place near a human city.
As for his identity as a seven-colored dragon, he only needed to find a representative. He did not have to show himself.
Flying high in the sky, Lu Sheng did not get too close. A huge city like this would definitely be protected by a Wizard Tower. It was not something he could hide from with his current rank.
He made a detour, turned around, and flew toward a barren mountain.
To the west of the huge city was a small mountain filled with white rocks. Lu Sheng found a shady spot on the mountain.
He pointed his claw at the ground.
"Pcchht!"
An earthy yellow arch that was more than three meters tall slowly appeared. A huge rock golem that was almost three meters tall walked out of the arch.
The rock golem's entire body was made of mud and rocks. It had a strong and muscular body.
"Nesmo is at your command, spellcaster." The rock golem bowed at Lu Sheng.
"Help me build an underground concealment dragon lair," Lu Sheng ordered.
This rock golem was an earth elemental summoned from the earth elemental world. It had the innate ability to turn mud into rock ten times a day. In addition to its ability to move underground, it was usually the best choice for a Wizard to build a building.
Naturally, summoning a rock elemental was a level-three spell at the very least. Only a level-six Wizard could cast it.
"Alright." The rock elemental turned around and burrowed into the ground.
The mud and rocks on the ground seemed to have a life of their own. They automatically opened up a path for it.
It took Lu Sheng three days to build the Dragon Cavern. He summoned a Stone Elemental every day to work, which was quite efficient.
Because of his powerful mental strength, the Rock Elementals he summoned were stronger than ordinary Third-level Summoning Spells, so he could cast Mud to Rock twelve times a day.
In addition, he did not have high requirements for the crypt. As long as it was sturdy, breathable, and had entrances and exits, it would be fine.
There was no need for any pattern carving, which saved a lot of time.
Three days later, Lu Sheng began to arrange a large number of magic traps around the Dragon Cave.
Most of the traps he had set up were Level 1 Elemental Damage Traps. Once triggered, one would receive various types of elemental damage.
Time passed by slowly. Another five days had passed, and Lu Sheng had spent almost all of the spellcasting materials he had saved up and had set up dozens of traps.
Then, he set up a fog glyph array in a large area and began to prepare for his own base plan.
First, they needed a spokesperson.
…
"Let's start with the rabbits."
Rabbit was the most experienced.
Lu Sheng stared at the dozen or so gray rabbits that were trembling in fear from his Dragon's Might. They were huddled together.
He went out for a trip and used magic to easily catch 18 fat grey rabbits.
There were also two bobcats and a small gray bear.
He brought all of these prey into the Dragon Cavern and bound them with Art Restrictions.
"First, I need to have sufficiently high intelligence to help me deal with the various transactions with humans." Lu Sheng looked at the animals before him.
"The modification method is to rely on spirit-prompting threads and civilization transition. This world isn't like the rabbit's world. It's born with extremely intelligent intelligent species."
He slowly walked up to a group of rabbits.
He extended his claws, and a white ray shot out from the tip of his index finger.
The white ray instantly shot into the body of the strongest gray rabbit and vanished.
"Squawk!"
The rabbit squealed and started rolling on the ground. Its fur fell off rapidly, revealing the blood-red skin and blood vessels underneath.
The rabbit's body also began to rapidly grow as its screams continued to spread.
Lu Sheng frowned. He slowly took out this rabbit and placed it on the empty ground outside.
"This is just one spirit-prompting thread …" He gave it some thought. Then, he released another spirit-prompting thread. He controlled it with his spirit and slowly inserted it into the rabbit's body. He observed the changes that were happening to it.
To his surprise, when the second spirit-prompting thread was inserted, the rabbit exploded with a bang and turned into minced meat and blood.
"The rabbits in this world seem different …" Lu Sheng frowned.
He began experimenting carefully. The rabbits in this world and the rabbits in the Rabbit World seemed to have a huge difference in their brains.
For two years, he experimented with more than a dozen rabbits. Finally, Lu Sheng succeeded in creating one.
After expending two spirit-prompting threads, a gray rabbit grew to a rabbit head that was nearly two meters tall. With a civilization transition, the rabbit head immediately became much smarter than before.
With his first experience, Lu Sheng quickly created a second rabbit head, a catman, and a bearman.
Beastmen were not rare in this world. Although the beastmen created by Lu Sheng were slightly different in appearance, they were not rare.
After Lu Sheng carefully trained the seven beastmen he created for more than half a month, they could finally graduate and perform some simple actions.
Also, Lu Sheng captured a few passing merchants and humans. He used them as teachers to teach him and the beastmen how to speak the language.
Language learning took a long time. Lu Sheng sent the humans to the huge city to trade goods while he worked hard on cultivating the corresponding art for the new level-7 Sorcerer.
The advancement to the Seventh-level required a Spell Caster's Third-level spells to an extremely troublesome extent. Without an Elemental Pool, cultivating on one's own would be extremely slow.
Although Lu Sheng was a seven-colored dragon and had great talent, it was best to improve his strength as soon as possible.
Moreover, he began to formulate a plan. Over the years, he had obtained a few decent antique weapons from his instructors. He could sell them as starting capital.
As time passed, the intelligent beasts slowly came into contact with human society.
Now that everything was on the right track, Lu Sheng slowly began to relax. He allowed the few merchants he had captured to take charge of the transactions.
He sold some of the art scrolls he had carved in his free time to the merchants. Then, he bought various materials and the leather paper needed for the art scrolls from the city.
As a Formation Master, Lu Sheng had an easy time carving art scrolls. After cultivating hard every day, he could easily make a large pile during his rest time.
Crafting art scrolls mainly required him to constantly release the art and seal the art into the scroll. Ever since Lu Sheng transformed his art into a cultivation method, he no longer relied on the magic net to cast his art. Hence, he was no longer limited by the number of Spell Slots he could cast.
The situation went smoothly. Lu Sheng used an illusory art to conceal his dragon body. Then, he officially took root in the barren mountain near Dawn City and began cultivating.
His spell casting level was also improving rapidly with his incredibly powerful spirit as a foundation.
…
By the coast.
Two elves with sharp ears in blue robes were squatting down. They carefully examined the traces left on the beach.
The traces were clearly very deep. However, after being eroded by time and seawater, only a tiny bit was left. They might not be able to see it clearly after a while.
"How is it?" On the other side, a woman with golden curls walked toward them with a cold gaze. She wore a tight-fitting silver armor and carried a dark red greatsword on her back. Her body faintly emitted an aura of terror that would make any dragon extremely disgusted.
The older of the two elf Wizards stood up and nodded slowly.
"It should be the marks of the seven-colored dragons. The marks we placed on the dragons seem to be concealed by some arcane barrier, but we can still sense the general direction."
"After the dragons were attacked by Sardine, they flew into the deep sea and weren't easy to capture. Fortunately, we managed to capture a lone seven-colored dragon in the end. We've barely completed this year's mission. "
The golden-haired woman frowned.
"The higher-ups have stated that we must obtain a pair of seven-colored dragons' eyeballs this year. Some important person has said that they need it. If we can't capture them, we can forget about the research funding for next year and the year after," she added.
"Of course we know that. However, these evil dragons are unusually cunning and secretive …"
"These are all reasons. The academy's higher-ups only care about the results. The same goes for the Tower Council, "the woman interrupted them.
"Alright. It's just a young dragon. We'll capture it first. If anything goes wrong, we'll ask for reinforcements from Prince Puge, "the golden-haired woman said.
"It should be fine. Judging from the size of the claw marks, this young dragon can't be more than 20 years old. It's considered very young, "the older elf Wizard explained.
"Let's go, then. We'll follow the trail of its aura and try our best to capture it first.
"Yes, director." The two elf Wizards nodded respectfully.
It was just a young dragon. With Director Jolin, a level-15 Arcane Knight, around, even an adult seven-colored dragon would not be a match for it.
Only a legendary creature on the same level as an Ancient Dragon could barely suppress an Arcane Knight who had arcane arts and battle techniques.
Moreover, the two of them were level-11 Great Wizards. Naturally, capturing a young dragon was not a difficult task.
…
Near Dawn City, inside the underground dragon cavern.
Lu Sheng sat with his legs crossed in the depths of the cavern. A clear and thin underground river flowed around him.
The gurgling water brought a sense of liveliness and liveliness to this quiet cavern.
Two yellow-robed men knelt before Lu Sheng respectfully and fearfully. They were reporting the recent month's transactions in a low voice.
In their eyes, the figure before them was not a seven-colored dragon, but a middle-aged Great Wizard who was engrossed in reading a book.
It was an honor for any human to serve a Great Wizard. This Great Wizard was eccentric and liked to stay underground. However, in this day and age, every capable and important person had a few eccentricities.
"… The Fireball Spell and Featherfall Spell Scrolls sell the best. They're not expensive, and it's easier to cast them. That's why they're always the first to be sold out … The profit margin is also the highest. This is because the materials required to create these two spells aren't expensive …"
The merchant continued to report the situation to them.
Lu Sheng, on the other hand, slowly exhaled a puff of pure purple magical power smoke from his mouth and nose.
He had been in this place for a few years and had successfully broken through to become a level-7 Wizard.
Since he could not believe it, he did not continue to break through.
Instead, he relied on the spells that he had mastered and started to dig deeper into the model. At the same time, he used Deep Blue to make deductions.
To him, the higher-level spells were merely the extension and strengthening of all the spells within level-3.
