NOVPUB"Just follow the rules and everything will be fine."
Upon hearing Tanaya’s further explanation, Ivan made his decision.
After the last battle, once the sorcerer had regained their footing, alien races started coming one after another to seek alliance, with the Froglings being just one of them.
For these alien races that sought alliance, the sorcerer wasn’t stingy but rather generously taught them suitable Meditation Methods, helping them embark on the path of sorcery.
In fact, the sorcerer had always been doing this, as the alien races that had previously allied were already aided.
So far, in the sorcerer world, there are many alien sorcerers, most of whom are apprentices, Level 1 Sorcerers, or Level 2 Sorcerers, with no Level 3 alien sorcerers yet.
Although the newly allied Froglings are somewhat special, Ivan did not plan to treat them differently. If there were any distinctions to be made, it would have to wait until an alien Arcane Wizard emerges.
"Okay, I’ll go inform the King of Ten Thousand Woods."
"Wait, Tanaya."
"?"
"This sorcerer is heading to the Dragon Ancient Ruins later, would you like to come along?"
"Of course, I’ll be right back."
Tanaya rushed off, and when she returned a while later, Miss Centaur Angela also arrived at the Golden Rock Tower, clearly ready to head to the Dragon Ancient Ruins together.
Ivan took hold of the two of them, and the three transformed into a stream of light, arriving at a newly constructed teleportation hall in the inner city.
Through space teleportation, they passed through several new cities, including Qing Lei City and Giant Wood City, and easily reached Cloud Sky City, located on a high cliff on the West Coast, adjacent to the Dragon Luo Star Sea.
"Are we going to settle in Longluo Thousand Islands?"
"Yes, once we obtain what we need from the Dragon Ancient Ruins, I’ll have a chat with the throne here to finalize this matter."
The three stood on the city wall of Giant Wood City, with the cliffs beneath them, clearly sensing the waves crashing against the cliff.
From here, viewing the entire Dragon Luo Star Sea offers a unique feeling.
"Hehe, the King of Ten Thousand Woods and the others have already decided to name the first city built in Longluo Thousand Islands as ’Ink Flame City,’" Tanaya said with a smile.
"They do take the easy route," Ivan also smiled.
Such naming methods are quite common in the sorcerer world. If they were deceased, they would be named after the sorcerer’s title, like Qing Lei City.
The current city names can only be considered temporary, and will be changed by future generations when the time is right.
The three of them stayed in Cloud Sky City for five consecutive days.
On the sixth day, with Ivan holding someone on each side, they traversed the rules of power, entering the domain of the Dragon Luo Star Sea without slowing down, reaching the Dragon Ancient Ruins in just a few days.
"We’re here already?"
"Seems like it’s not much slower than space teleportation."
The quickness of their journey left Tanaya and Angela speechless in amazement.
"This is the power of rules. If you have a chance to master it, you’ll understand its wonder," Ivan casually explained while observing the void portal not far away.
Upon hearing this, Tanaya and Angela exchanged glances and both showed wry smiles.
They knew well that becoming an Ancient King was already challenging for them, let alone reaching the throne level with a thousand times, or even a million times, the difficulty. By themselves, they might never have the chance in this lifetime.
Tanaya, thinking of something, looked at Ivan, hesitating to speak.
"In front of me, just say what you want to say, no need to fear I’ll blame you," Ivan glanced at her.
"I want to join the Black Star Legion," Tanaya expressed her thoughts.
The reason she had such an idea was mainly because she had seen the development of the Black Star Legion. In the past few years, Cloud Barracuda and Racing Wolf had become Level 5 Ancient Kings one after another, which had greatly motivated her.
"And you, Angela, do you have the same thought?" Ivan noticed the burning gaze from the other side and asked.
"Yes, yes, my thoughts are the same as Tanaya’s." Miss Centaur nodded repeatedly.
Thanks to the Secret Technique Three Create All Things, the members of the Black Star Legion’s power would enhance along with Ivan’s, offering a lay-back cultivation approach, which was an irresistible temptation for any ambitious creature.
Neither of them could resist such a convention.
"Isn’t it possible?" Tanaya looked at a certain sorcerer eagerly.
"If I remember correctly, that wasn’t what you thought before," Ivan said.
"Hmph! Before is before, and now is now. It’s your rapid increase in power that made me change my mind."
"Of course, no problem, we’ll talk about it when we return to Truth City."
Faced with their request, Ivan didn’t refuse, but he still had some concerns in his heart.
The Three Create All Things inherited some characteristics of the Crimson Will. When the Secret Technique is deployed, it establishes a sort of subordinate relationship and inevitably is influenced by his will.
Otherwise, his consciousness could not descend into the bodies of members of the Black Star Legion.
Both were currently his wives, and upon joining the Black Star Legion, this relationship layer would change, forcing him to think more about it.
"That’s settled then."
Upon hearing his affirmative response, Tanaya and Angela exchanged a smile, clearly not acting impulsively.
Seeing this, Ivan said no more.
"Let’s go inside and take a look."
He took the lead, flying towards the void portal of the Dragon Ancient Ruins. With a flash, he reached a high position, and Tanaya and Angela sprouted Fighting Spirit Wings behind them, soaring into the sky.
Before long, the three each chose a position and immersed themselves in the void.
"This is the power of rules in the Chaotic World. So, the Dragon Ancient Ruins is a place similar to the Little Chaos Realm," Ivan, unlike Jenny, did not experience a spiritual epiphany while passing through the portal.
He found another place influenced by the powers of the Chaotic World.
Recalling Danaila’s amiability, embracing other forces for self-use, he comprehended it and did not investigate further, letting himself be carried to the interior of the Dragon Ancient Ruins.
The situation was indeed different from where Jenny reached.
Instead, it felt like arriving in a place similar to the Little Chaos Realm, surrounded by a vast whiteness, with a dense cloud cover beneath, and flowing smoke rippling over it.
"It always feels like we’ve come to the wrong place."
Ivan noticed something, raising his eyebrows involuntarily.
It’s impossible for him to leave without doing anything at this point, so he stepped onto the cloud layer, flying in the sensed direction, and indeed, after advancing a distance, he saw something from afar.
A giant banner was drifting, standing over a thousand meters tall, with various dragons embroidered on its surface, exuding a strong ancient aura.
"So directly, it turns out to be an Inheritance Land of a treasure artifact?" 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝖔𝔪
"No matter what, let’s claim the artifact first."
Ivan wasn’t quite sure but felt getting the item couldn’t be wrong.
As expected, it wasn’t that easy. As he approached rapidly, the giant banner began to flutter wildly, with the dragons on its surface becoming lifelike and starting to wander.
Soon, dragon roars sounded, deafeningly loud.
The treasure banner emitted bright light, and the dragons broke free from it, soaring around, blocking his path.
"You can’t stop me with just this,"
Ivan reacted calmly, transforming into his true king form. Despite being smaller than the gigantic dragons opposite, he no longer appeared diminutive.
With bare fists, he charged at them in his true king form.
This move triggered the dragons’ unrest, each pouncing at him. He stepped forward, left punch, right punch, felling one dragon after another, forging ahead through them.
No dragon could stand in his way, no matter how cooperative they were.
When he reached the flagpole base of the giant banner, the persistently nagging dragons returned to the banner’s surface.
"Cough, if it could be a bit smaller, that would be great."
Seeing the towering pole before him, he murmured yet again after advancing closer.
Yet, nothing happened.
Embarrassed, Ivan chuckled silently, sitting down nearby, and began refining it using the method to refine an Original Force Treasure.
