“Hey, Divine Dragon boss, can you introduce us to what’s in this space?” Stout asked after a pause, looking at Divine Dragon.
“You and they can train here, but don’t wander around, or you’ll face the consequences!” Divine Dragon ignored Stout and continued speaking to Billy.
With that, Divine Dragon turned and surged away, creating a whirlwind that sent everyone flying.
“Is everyone okay?” Billy asked as he got up and looked around.
“We’re fine!” Everyone stood up one after another, with no visible injuries.
“I finally understand why so many powerful beings didn’t survive after being sucked into the Nine Dragons Cauldron!” White Tiger said with lingering fear.
Everyone else nodded in agreement. With a Divine Dragon of this level guarding it, even a Supreme Ancestry Realm expert would be in danger!
“This cauldron is called the Nine Dragons Cauldron. Could there be nine Divine Dragons inside?” Casey speculated.
“Most likely!” Opal nodded.
“If one Divine Dragon is that powerful, what would nine be like?” Azure Dragon exclaimed.
“The top-ranked Sacred Object, indeed!” Casey agreed.
“When Billy truly becomes the master of the Nine Dragons Cauldron, can he command the Divine Dragon to fight for him?” Felicia asked.
“Probably!” Frostblade responded.
“If that’s the case, we won’t need to fight anymore. Just that one dragon could annihilate all our enemies!” Felicia said dreamily.
“Felicia, you’re probably overthinking it!” Frostblade continued. “In this mid-level star domain, maybe. But in a high-level star domain, who knows? We don’t know how strong those people are!”
“They can’t be stronger than that Divine Dragon, right?” Alex Long replied. “At least I think there are no warriors stronger than it in the seventh or eighth-level star domains!”
“The problem is, Boss might not become the true master of the Nine Dragons Cauldron by then!” Night Orchid poured cold water on her hopes.
“Alright!” Alex Long shrugged.
“Boss, there must be lots of good stuff in this space. Should we explore?” Stout asked Billy.
“Stout, are you crazy? Didn’t you hear what the Divine Dragon said?” Judge questioned.
“It must be trying to scare us!” Stout smacked his lips. “Besides, it wouldn’t let anything happen to Boss. If there’s danger, it will definitely come out to save him!”
“What if it doesn’t?” Soul Chaser asked.
“No way, Boss is the master of the Nine Dragons Cauldron. Nothing will happen to him in his own space!” Stout insisted. “Besides, people die for wealth, just as birds perish in pursuit of food. It’s worth taking some risks for good stuff!”
“Shut up!” Ivy glared at him and then looked at Billy. “Billy, this place might be dangerous. We should leave.”
“This place is indeed not simple,” Billy nodded slightly. “But since we’re here, we can’t leave empty-handed.”
“Everyone, refine some talismans nearby and see how long it takes to break through a level!”
“Got it!” Everyone nodded.
“Remember, only move within a ten-kilometer radius. Don’t go far!” Billy instructed.
“Understood!” They responded again.
Then they dispersed and started grabbing the spiritual talismans floating in the air. The training speed here was faster than they had imagined!
In less than three days, everyone, including Billy, had broken through a level without using any additional resources from their storage rings.
Opal advanced to the fifth-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm, Billy and Amber reached the fourth-rank, and Harleen stepped into the third-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm.
Casey and Stout were already at half-step Breaking Emptiness Realm and couldn’t break through due to the lack of Thunder Tribulation in this space.
“This speed is really fast!” On the third afternoon, Azure Dragon remarked as they gathered again.
“Let’s go out!” Billy nodded slightly and led everyone out of the Nine Dragons Cauldron space back to the inn courtyard.
“Billy, you’re back! How was it inside? Was it amazing?” Purple Spirit and White Feather approached.
“It was,” Billy smiled and looked at the white-clad man floating nearby.
“Senior, in your estimation, what level do I need to reach to gain the full recognition of the Nine Dragons Cauldron?”
“I don’t know,” the white-clad man shook his head. “Every previous master before me had different levels. It probably depends on its mood!”
“Uncle White, besides the high concentration of spiritual energy and talismans, are there other treasures in that space?” Stout asked eagerly.
“Yes,” the white-clad man nodded. “And there are many.”
“Really?” Stout almost drooled.
“Really,” the white-clad man confirmed. “But with your current strength, if you plan to treasure hunt in that space, you’d better leave your last words beforehand.”
Stout: “…”
“Senior, can you tell us about the Nine Dragons Cauldron? What’s with that space and why is there a Divine Dragon?” Bob asked.
“Why ask so much? You wouldn’t understand now anyway,” the white-clad man replied. “When you reach the ninth-level star domain, you’ll understand many things without me explaining.”
“Of course, whether you can reach the ninth-level star domain is another matter.”
After saying that, he turned into a white light and merged into the Nine Dragons Cauldron.
The next morning, they went to a valley outside the city where Casey and Stout faced their Thunder Tribulation.
The process went smoothly, and both stepped into the Breaking Emptiness Realm without any issues.
By noon, Azure Dragon and White Tiger went out to gather information about The Shadow Judge and returned within half an hour.
“Azure Dragon boss, back so soon? Did you find out about The Shadow Judge?” Stout asked.
“Yes,” Azure Dragon nodded and looked at Billy. “Boss, The Shadow Judge is quite famous in Radiant City. You can ask anyone about him.”
“He has hundreds of people under him who collect information for him to sell.”
“Where is he?” Billy asked.
“He has an estate in the west part of the city. It’s easy to find; just ask anyone in the western district.” Casey replied.
“Let’s check it out!” Billy nodded slightly.
They left the inn and headed towards the western part of the city. After about half an hour, they arrived at a medium-sized estate on the outskirts.
“Boss, something’s not right!” Casey frowned as they landed.
