The Mighty Dragons Are Dead-Chapter 906 - 0903: Time Cannot Be Blocked (First Update)
Chapter 906: Chapter 0903: Time Cannot Be Blocked (First Update)
Blue skies and white clouds, green mountains and blue waters.
Flying upstream along the Rhine River, Liszt, who was riding on the back of Light Green Gem Dragon Ethan, closed his eyes to rest and used Ethan’s eyes to navigate.
The Eye of Magic, this Dou Qi secret technique, didn’t blend well with Ethan, or to say, its effect wasn’t good—it was just slightly clearer than when he used it alone. Not to mention Breath Decay, it essentially had no effect on reducing consumption for Dragon Knights, and Spiral Rotation also didn’t have much of an effect.
It must be said that aside from producing Light Green Gems, Ethan was quite mediocre in every other aspect.
This Gemstone Dragon’s combat power probably ranked at the very bottom among all dragons. Little Fire Dragon Leo was only three years old this year, but with the supply of Superior Magic from the Endless Volcano Cluster and the constant support of Magic Potions from Liszt to assist him, his growth was rapid, and he had already surpassed Ethan in head-to-head combat strength.
The reason he brought Ethan here was more in the hopes of deepening the Mind Branding so that Ethan could quickly start cultivating with Emily.

“Roar!”
Within the mind, the silhouette of the knight riding on Ethan’s back became clearer and clearer.
Every time Liszt entered its mind world, he was deepening the imprint of that shadow. This unique method of cultivation was unlike any system and was exclusive to dragons, exclusive to the First Dragon Knight. But to Liszt, no matter how many dragons he had, he was always the First Dragon Knight.
“To this day, my personal strength has barely improved, and I rely entirely on supporting dragons for battle… What would be the cultivation system above a Dragon Knight, and what exactly should I do to become stronger?”
As the Mind Branding of Ethan became clearer, he gradually felt the shackles of reaching a strength limitation.
This shackle was shared by all Dragon Knights in the northeast corner of the Legendary Continent—it was the culmination of Dragon Dou Qi Cultivation, and the dragons’ strength also reached their peak. At this point, both man and dragon found themselves in an inescapable shackle, only to be poetically called Completion-term Dragon Knights.
Liszt had ridden four dragons and still couldn’t break free from such shackles.
He was a Knight of Fire Attribute Dou Qi, and his synergy with Leo was the most fitting, flawless. The coordination with Ethan, Bard, and Ornn was a bit sluggish, but fortunately, Dragon Magic Power belonged to the Superior Magic level, which meant there was no obstacle when it combined with any Dragon Dou Qi.
Even a Knight with Fire Attribute Dou Qi riding a Water Dragon could still cultivate and fight together.
“Although a Knight can ride any dragon, I have this indescribable feeling that to break through the level of a Dragon Knight, it’s not just about practicing soul synergy but also about a closer integration between the Knight and the dragon… Perhaps Leo is indeed my best partner for breakthroughs.”
“Roar!”
Ethan, sensing Liszt’s wavering commitment, let out a dissatisfied roar.
Liszt smiled and soothed, “I know you don’t like Leo, nor do you like me, but soon I will choose a more suitable Knight for you. Ethan, she is a woman Knight with extraordinary talent, a fourteen-year-old Sky Knight who is truly a standout of her age.”
“Roar!” Ethan signaled for Liszt to bring the person over soon.
Although the Mind Battle had wiped the imprint of the First Dragon Knight from its mind, Ethan’s body and mind belonged to Liszt, but it hadn’t lost its memory and still held a grudge against Liszt. Coupled with Liszt’s lack of qualities it recognized, there had always been some awkwardness.
Despite the mental connection and the power of the Mind Branding that forced it to maintain a close bond with Liszt until death from old age.
But that didn’t stop Ethan from wanting a different Knight.
Grey Iron Dragon Ornn also had similar thoughts. That Iron Dragon had a considerable grievance against Liszt since it was ridden forcefully by Liszt while fully aware—a nightmare-like memory that would likely be etched in its dragon life, never to be forgotten.
“Still, upbringing matters. Leo is an Evil Dragon, and even though he occasionally exhibits evil thoughts and reverts to his wild nature, his affection for me is absolutely unquestionable,” he murmured to himself with some emotion.
This brought another scornful roar from Ethan: “Roar!”
Meanwhile.
Formless Dragon Bard was quite happy. It carried Ach on its back, and even though Dragon Tooth Platform would not be opened to Ach and a Magician couldn’t establish a power connection with a dragon, it liked Ach very much. This fondness was based more on Ach’s understanding and knowledge of space.
It knew deeply that compared to Liszt, Ach was the one who could truly guide its growth—the pity was that he wasn’t a knight.
“Wu yi ya!” Bard turned its head and glanced at Ach, who was holding a scepter and studying it.
Ach looked up at Bard and responded with a perfunctory smile.
Bard instantly felt pleased.
But it didn’t know that in Ach’s heart, she was a bit annoyed by it, for a simple reason: Bard loved to chew Smoked Grass. Though a dragon’s digestive abilities were powerful, even their saliva had a strong digestive power that left no trace of the climate. But while chewing, that peculiar stench would spread everywhere.
Every time this happened, Ach would take out three of the masks designed by Liszt and cover her nose tightly.
That was precisely the case now, as Bard, not knowing where Liszt hid the Smoked Grass prepared for it, felt happy and silently took out a piece to grind finely between its teeth.
That stench immediately drifted with the wind, all towards the back.
“Brother must ride Ethan because he dislikes the smell of Smoked Grass.” Ach thought to herself and quickly put on three masks.
Even with the masks on, the lingering stench still wafted into her nose.
She could only silently endure and then focus her attention on the Time Scepter in her hands, which she had been researching all along the way, especially the Time Diamond at the top of the scepter.
The Knowledge Ancient Book’s assessment of the Time Scepter was—Twilight Dragon Gemstone, Tree of Golden Apples, Reflections of Time.
However, despite long research, she couldn’t figure out how to activate the Time Diamond, what effects the Tree of Golden Apples had, and the meaning of the Reflections of Time.
She looked at each reflection of herself on the faces of the Time Diamond.
There were faces of her as a young Little Sea Monster and even as an old Sea Serpent, as if all the changes of a lifetime were engraved within the Time Diamond. Unlike the aging of humans, a Sea Serpent, even in old age, did not change much, merely gaining a few crow’s feet at the corners of the eyes.
“Is this what I’ll look like when I’m old?”
Ach’s body had reached adulthood, but her mentality still retained that of a young Sea Serpent girl, naïve about many adult matters: “Time oh time, Ach wants to grow old with brother, but brother wants to form a contract with the Immortal Dragon, so what about Ach?”
Her heart felt a moment of vagueness, and unconsciously, she started channeling magic power in her hand.
At that moment, the magic power that should have decayed upon touching the Time Diamond was not erased by the power of time but instead slowly seeped into the diamond.
Then.
The Formless Dragon Bard in Ach’s eyes suddenly grew larger, as if its fifteen-meter wingspan expanded to a full-grown twenty meters in an instant.
And on its back, where the Dragon Tooth Platform was, a knight clad in armor forged by flames slowly turned his head.
The figure seemed like an illusion yet also real, and that face was both familiar and strange to Ach—it was clearly Liszt’s face, yet it had a scruffy beard, as if he were middle-aged.
Only her Time Scepter in hand, where the Time Diamond that used to emanate a colorful light, had dimmed slightly.
