Don't Mess with That Dragon-Chapter 507 - 61: Covet

"This matter isn’t really a secret."

"Once, when I accompanied my father to the Holy City to receive a legacy, I heard a royal Dragon say that during the advancement to Legendary level to comprehend the Law Origin, a Spiritual Imprint will be left within it. If it’s a super strong entity, after death, when the Law Origin dissipates, the residual power will merge into the corpse, and the Spiritual Imprint remains. Later, by spending a great cost to awaken the Spiritual Imprint within the corpse, it can revive the strong from death."

"The ancient ruler of the Frost Giant race was awakened and revived by their tribe."

"Even though the awakened revival sees a significant decline in strength, it would take a long time to regain peak combat power. However, the time imprint hasn’t been obliterated after tens of thousands of years. That ancient ruler, even if not Epic, must have comprehended some Power of Time to achieve spiritual immortality."

"Underneath our Dolan Race’s Holy City, several corpses of Ancient Giant Dragons are sealed too. It’s unknown why those royals didn’t awaken our ancestors."

"However, such awakening and revival rituals cannot be conducted arbitrarily. According to someone, it seems a certain timing is required. In a few decades, the Seta Great World will face a tide, which will be the time for a large-scale revival of ancient strong entities."

These pieces of information were all heard by Casares from the royal clan.

However, he didn’t know more specifics.

"World tide, large-scale revival?"

Upon hearing this, Austin’s pupils slightly shrank.

According to the information he possessed, soon, the Divine entities slumbering since the Twilight of the Gods are about to begin reviving. The battle in the core Beastman Royal Court of the Kawa Great Forest proved this point.

Would the large-scale revival of ancient strong entities, as Casares mentioned, relate to this?

World tide...

Is it due to some cyclical influences?

Then, what about those Arcane Mages who perished in the great battle during the Twilight of the Gods?

To contend with Divine entities, causing them to slumber, it stands to reason that they would have left some contingencies.

If those beings awaken from ancient times, what kind of impact would they have on this world?

Moreover, over ten thousand years, no one has been heard to break through the Legendary barrier to advance to Epic level; could it be related?

Austin’s heart sank immediately.

Although he did not know when the world tide would begin, it seemed now that the revival of the Frost Giant’s ancient ruler, the manifestation of Divine traces in the Beastman Royal Court, and other signs had appeared.

No Epic emerges, yet with Austin’s strength, he is one of the top forces in this world.

But, if the unfortunate prediction came true and those beings called Arcane Mages return, there is a high chance they will conflict again with the revived Divine entities, continuing the unextinguished war from tens of thousands of years ago.

In tumultuous times, storms traverse.

Under such turmoil, he might not be able to maintain himself.

"Epic, this time I must obtain that thing!"

Thinking to this point, Austin’s heart grew more resolute.

Recalling the deal Princess Sarah offered in their conversation, Austin’s heart was stirred.

Taking advantage of the tide’s beginning, when danger is not yet so great, is the most suitable time to obtain that thing and find the path to Epic!

Thinking, Austin suddenly asked:

"How powerful is the ancient ruler of the Frost Giants?"

Although the item Princess Sarah promised from the Ireland Kingdom is tempting, Austin isn’t in a hurry. Since encountering the White Dragon on the road, he wouldn’t mind dealing with it if possible.

After all, Austin always planned to build a transit point in the core of the Dolan Glacier Plateau to connect the Ireland Kingdom with the Dragon Nest Tribe in the Kawa Great Forest.

Considering the character of the Frost Giants, Austin wanting to do this likely wouldn’t be agreeable to them.

So, the only method is to defeat and expel the Frost Giants entrenched in the Dolan Glacier Plateau, presumably if Austin kills the leading Frost Giant, the White Dragons hiding throughout the Dolan Glacier Plateau won’t mind seeking revenge.

The only concern is the strength of the ancient ruler revived by the Frost Giants.

"Very strong, although based on estimation, the revival of the Frost Giant’s ancient ruler has only been about thirty years, their level realm might have restored to the Middle Tier Legendary level, and there might even be mastery of Space and possibly Time power. Ordinary High Tier Legendaries would be no match."

"Middle Tier Legendary..."

Upon hearing this, Austin slightly breathed a sigh of relief.

Despite maintaining a very serious posture, the gap wasn’t yet despairing.

"Sir, you’re not planning to attack, are you? The power of Space Law and Time Law is recognized as transcending all other Law powers."

Casares, seeing Austin’s reaction, trembled inwardly, reminding cautiously.

Though aware of Austin’s strong power, he didn’t think the revived ancient ruler of the Frost Giants would be so weak to be defeated by Austin.

Furthermore, if Austin went alone, returning safely would still be a concern.

Most importantly, it might bring catastrophic disaster to the remaining White Dragons on the Dolan Glacier Plateau.

"The Frost Giants dare to sacrifice ancestral remains, desecrate the sacred remains of the Dragon Race, they’ve already committed taboo. We only need to report this to the Celestial Dragon Island, and Dragons will naturally come to deal with them."

"It’s a stable method, only I am short on time, and the Frost Giant pursuing you has died. Are you sure the Frost Giants would just watch you establish contact with Celestial Dragon Island and see themselves face disaster unimpeded?"

"This..."

For a moment, Casares hesitated.

Having narrowly escaped, he momentarily forgot the danger wasn’t yet cleared.

"Rest assured, by then I shall go alone, merely to probe, not to cause trouble. Besides, investigating the Frost Giants’ reaction is actually more beneficial for you." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Austin comforted and advised accordingly.

Time isn’t an excuse.

With the Ireland Kingdom so near, Austin didn’t plan to stay here for long.

If Casares contacted Celestial Dragon Island and had them send strong entities to resolve the Frost Giants, the slow pace of the Dragon Race would take at least two or three years.

He cannot afford such a waste of time.

Of course, the most important thing is that Austin covets the possibly present Space and Time Law powers!
