Chapter 1380: Chapter 227: What, You Really Want to Reincarnate as a Fae?!
The āIā in Ianās mouth, naturally, is not himself currently located in Canaan Moore, but rather the āIā situated on Dragon Island.
The essence of the True Dragonās Spark is essentially a condensed elemental spirit substance, in other words, much like the properties of a Dragon Crystal, it is a material state spirit substance storage device. It can, of course, be placed in the Domain of Void, waiting for others to retrieve it.
However, the person retrieving it must also be powerful; without the ability to materialize the soul, it is impossible to touch it, without the ability to freely leap through the Domain of Void, it is impossible to carry it away.
Coincidentally, Ian now possesses both abilities.
As for why Ian needs the Spark, the answer is simple.
Previously, Ian did not use the Qing Steel Dragonās Spark because he did not have any materials at hand to utilize it. Green Pupilās Crystal Dragons were still young, and the laboratory in Xiawei Territory could not yet use such advanced technology.
But now, with the body of the Qing Steel Dragon from the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon at the Fourth Energy Level, even if it is damaged, he can use the technology within the Qing Steel Dragonās Spark to properly remodel itāto better suit Ianās needs.
As for maintenance materials...
"Iāll freeload from Dragon Island a bit, surely Dragon Island wonāt mind, right? They are so vast and wealthy; fixing a Fourth Energy Level dragon body should be no big deal for them."
With this thought in mind, Ian happily followed the Empireās team back to the World Tree City.
The year of 773 in the Era of Tara, late June.
The originally barely maintained facade of stability among the Tara Confederation has now been utterly shattered by the terrifying pressure of the confrontation among Fifth Energy Level powerhouses. Those countless stars hanging high in the Azure sky are manifestations of the Earthly Monarchsā power, making everyoneās hearts tremble with unease.
As conflicts between the Empire and Azure Sky Court once again come to the forefront, the two great nations that once launched continental wars for dominance are once again raising their bladesāthis time, they are more prepared, their fury more intense, and their methods of destruction more varied.
Rational people are calling for peace, but this rationality itself is also an irrationality, because the influence of many years of public opinion, and the mutual penetration and attacks over the years, have already made the local residents on the frontlines furious, clamoring to repay blood debts.
Those who have not personally experienced suffering, who claim to be rational, when they talk about āenduring a bit moreā and āavoiding greater losses caused by warā, it is nothing but the idle talk of a bunch of cowards overlooking everything. If thereās a chance for revenge, who would want peace?
In a moment, with the mobilization of major legions, and a fleet racing across the land, both sides are undertaking extremely frequent military maneuvers around the two mountain ranges central to Thaya.
The Empire has opened a double line, confronting Azure Sky Court and Fiery Flame Land, and Azure Sky Court is also fighting on two fronts. The Empireās Eastern Border Corps subtly forms a flanking attack with Gantreignumās counterattack.
Total war is imminent, waiting for one side to finally crack first.
Meanwhile, while Canaan Moore maintains a defensive stance, it is also stabilizing domestic turmoil caused by the Half-Moon operationāhaving lost the Fifth Energy Level, the Pillar Party can no longer resist the Sustenance Partyās purge. But this time, the Sustenance Party surprisingly showed restraint, leaving a lifeline.
After all, the Blood of the Ten Kings is indispensable...
And as a traitor of the Pillar Party, yet also its only hope, Golan National Domain intervened, suppressing many resistance and destructive actions from the Pillar Party.
As a representative of the young generation on the Maintenance Departmentās side, Anfa was also very busy, rushing around with several prosthetic bodies. In a sense, this could also be considered a form of Dragon Soul training.
As for Ian, he has been quite leisurely lately.
As the Prophet and one of the key individuals from the Exotic Species Research Institute Exploration Team, upon returning to Canaan Moore, he was not only unbothered by anyone but also received the utmost graciousness from the Canaan Moore officialsāthe best therapeutic potions, the best living conditions, and even if not the most classified information, all the books of the World Tree Grand Library were accessible to him.
This made Ian, who originally wanted to return earlier, instinctively linger on in the World Tree City... itās clear this is an Elven conspiracy! They want to use this monetary onslaught to make Ian delay his return to the Empire as much as possible!
How ridiculous, do they really think a Prophet would be swayed by such crude resource temptations?!!
Ian originally intended to say that, but indeed, the Elves were offering too much.
Regarding this, as the Empire is an ally of Canaan Moore, and since the Great Prince is currently in Canaan Moore negotiating a brand-new alliance with the upper echelons of the Blood of the Ten Kings, they turned a blind eye.
In contrast to Ianās leisurely reading life in Canaan Moore, the Xiawei Territory is much tougher.
In recent days, this Barony in the Southern Ridge Mountains has welcomed many scouts, visitors, emissaries, and investor merchants.
Some observe covertly, some appear to just be ordinary tourists, others inquire about the basic conditions and development plans of the territory as they prepare for upcoming investments, and some simply come to hand over money.
However, even those who intended to directly come and hand over money, upon truly arriving in Xiawei Territory and seeing the city renewed, and towering building complexes of Sublimation Plants built on natural Origin Quality convergence points, were compelled to elevate their evaluation of Ian by another level.
His territory, compared to other Naling Nobilityās territories, exists on a completely different dimensional level, whether itās the High-Tech Development Zone being constructed at Gorge Mouth Area or the agricultural center by Dazzling Lake, it all substantiates this young lordās ambitionāhe intends to develop his territory into the genuine core of the Bison Mountain Range, an economic, political, and religious center for the Mountain People, becoming the future core of South Ridge!
