Mystical Journey - Chapter 1291 - Survival 1
To be able to obtain such detailed information from Ann had already exceeded his expectations.
There was a lot of content recorded, even the dragon race inherited memory was not as detailed as this. Garen planned to bring back more goodies the next time he goes over.
Heavens, the Main Plane, and the Abyss.
The names of the three places flashed into his mind. This was the most fundamental core of this universe.
It was unknown how big exactly was the Main Substance Plane, it was like a gigantic sphere. He recalled the scene he saw when he just arrived, everything on the plane was yellow-brown. It was unclear what those cotton wool-like objects were, just that they were attached to the surface of the Main Substance Plane.
“Too bad this book’s not about the plane’s geography…” He shook his head and closed the book completely.

The main purpose of him coming here was to find the root of the Depletion of Mother Stream, but until now, he still had no clue.
Instead, he witnessed the absolute power of the strong ones here. The laws and restrictions here were at least able to suppress their strength by several levels.
His peak strength, while he was in Mech World, was on Planetary Level which was able to destroy planets, but here, Planetary Level was so suppressed to a completely horrifying extent. From what was mightily recorded in the books, it was approximately equivalent to a demigod level here. Even if he restored his various abilities at his peak, it was still impossible for him to destroy an entire planet, but destructing the plane was still possible.
Garen squatted inside the cave. The small range of White Dragon Clan no longer limited his vision, and so he projected his sight to other places far away.
After reviewing his current situation, Garen was extremely satisfied with the progress of his body growth.
Although the improvement of attributes has been raised to the requirement of three potential points in order to improve a little bit, he still managed to reach a whopping sixty points. This level of flesh was almost the highest level even for an Adult Dragon, and almost close to the apex of a White Dragon.
The most powerful warrior of the White Dragon race, the Adult Dragon Phosphorus, if other external forces were not included, was probably not able to surpass this level. Only his other aspects were above him, causing his flesh to exceed this certain level.
There was no doubt that Phosphorus’ Draconic Aura was definitely a Level Nine.
Garen then remembered the King Gus incident. He did not want to just simply conclude an Eternal Contract with King Gus just like that. It would be hard to determine whether this kind of relationship built on without trust would be a good thing or a bad thing in the future.
“Garen! Garen!!” Suddenly, Safour’s voice came from outside.
“What is it?”
Garen stood up and Safour came running in.
“Leona, Leona they just signed the Eternal Contract with the Deladia royals!!” Safour exclaimed frantically, “hurry, let’s go see! Many dragons have left already.” He was not aware of the discussion between Garen and Leona and rushed over with a look of incomprehensible shock.
It should be known that an Eternal Contract meant that one would give up half of his life to an ordinary mortal!
For example, if an ordinary person was to live up to eighty years old, let him give half of his life away to another dead person, he would then only live up to forty years old. To pass away at a time of one’s prime was no doubt a big deal for any White Dragons.
“Let’s go.”
Garen was not surprised, he just did not expect them to act so quickly.
He followed Safour and flew out the cave. They crossed a small snowy peak and they could see the snowy ground below, ten or so White Dragons were gathered together. Some were Adult Dragons, some were Young Dragons, but most of them were Young Whelps and a few young people dressed in royal assembles.
Garen and Safour landed and spotted Leona and Boris among the crowd. Both dragons had a look of determination, clearly, they had already thought through this beforehand.
Upon seeing Garen’s arrival, both dragons nodded slightly to him and continued standing beside two young people. One of the young people was a male and the other, a female. Their looks seemed beautifully crafted and they looked extremely tender and cute, but the guards around them were merely Level-Three ordinary elites. It was obvious that they were not the most valued ones in the royal family.
Several Adult Dragons had their mouths closed, but there was a subtle soundwave transmission in the air. Evidently, they were using a spell similar to ventriloquism and were currently communicating with Boris and Leona.
Garen recognized one of the Adult Dragons to be Leona’s father who was a weak White Dragon. When his daughter was bullied, he shrank into the crowd and did not dare to come out. Facing his strong and determined daughter now, he still had a sad look on his face.
Leona’s sister, Mehsa, was present as well. Standing on one side quietly, her expression was down and upset.
As for Boris, his uncle, an ordinary White Dragon, was there with a cool expression.
“Seems like you’re already sure about this no matter what I say.”
“Yes.”
Boris nodded.
“Alright then,” His uncle said indifferently. Back then when Boris was bullied, he did not step out and help either. The dragons who really cared about Boris and Leona were already arrested along with the Great Elders.
The rest of them were not exactly close to them and their relationship was weak.
Garen stood by the side and looked for a while. He did not squeeze in and greet the both of them. This was their own decision. Third Elder could only rely on such means to temporarily resist it.
“Come on, let’s go back,” Garen shook his head. Knowing that the situation had been set, Leona and Boris might soon leave them and who knew if they would ever meet each other again. They had to follow the Contractors back to the Deladia Empire to live. For them, this was just a place of sorrow, perhaps one day when they return with sufficient powers, they would be able to avenge their ancestors and save them from being arrested. But that day was too far away.
“But…!?” Safour wanted to say something but then realized that Garen had already flown off.
Garen was not worried that those two guys would get into trouble, even Third Elder did not see that those two tots would create problems or whatsoever. Level Nine was not just easily achieved by any dragon, what more, a wasted one that had lost half of its life.
Sure enough, not long after returning to the cave, Garen heard the news of Boris and Leona leaving with the group back to the Deladia Empire. A total of five White Dragons of the entire White Dragon Clan had signed an Eternal Contract, two of which were them.
With two fewer acquaintances, Garen’s life was even duller.
Safour, Sathree, and Satwo were always nowhere to be seen. If they were not participating in hunting activities, they were playing around with the Young Whelps. Soon, they forgot about the separation and the feeling of sadness that came with it. After all, they were still kids.
Garen sat still in the cave and meditated.
He had plenty of experience in martial arts but he had not been able to make full use of it. In addition to the understanding of the various laws of several worlds, after transmigrating between so many worlds, he had his own understanding of the laws of the world.
He gradually understood some limitations and unknowns clearly, he began to recall all the systems he had been in contact with so far.
Secret Technique system, Totem Light, Witches and the power of Blood Breed, Holy Phoenix Scriptures, and the strongest of all, Mech World’s Willpower system and Energy Machinist’s system.
“Even though this world is extremely repressive, its degree of inclusiveness is very strong. All these systems are usable, but some of the powerful forces are suppressed several levels below the original level. This way, the only things that can be used in all ways are the Secret Technique system and the Energy Machinist system.”
“Willpower requires a variety of techniques of a Mech, and this will not work. Many of the materials here are different from those there and to rebuild the study of materials would be very troublesome and it’d take too much time. The Totem Light mainly has the power of evolving and degrading and finding the most powerful part of a creature’s gene fragment. But this is considered as a knowledge system, and it’s very likely that once leaked, it’ll attract plenty of attention. If possible, it just shouldn’t be used. So, what remains is the Witches and the power of Blood Breed which is mainly a technique used for Dream Weaving through dimensional worlds. I’m still not very clear about this and it feels very vast, perhaps I can try using it some other time.”
Garen sorted out all the powers he had witnessed and listened to them one by one to see which ones were helpful to him now.
Now that his body had reached a certain level of change, it needed to be upgraded. That would take a lot of time and his strength was probably unable to be greatly enhanced in just a short period of time. Therefore, he had to think of another way.
“My Energy Machinist Willpower needs to be practiced again and it’s not urgent at the moment but my Void Confinement Essence can be activated by the power of dreams. Let’s see if I can make use of it here.”
Void Creatures and Warlocks were all masters of controlling dreams. Garen had never understood that, but now that his Soul Ring had really reached the Middle Demon Lord Level, he could faintly sense that the concept of dreams had slightly surpassed the essence of time-space. It was just a very weird yet mysterious existence.
Even though the restrictions here were wide, a weak trace of Soul Energy was not even able to escape the body. His understanding of the Void Confinement Essence was probably not applicable to foreign objects right away. However, it may be different if he was in a dream.
Garen pondered for a moment and looked at his accumulate potential points.
‘Safive — Strength 57, agility 57, physique 50, intelligence 19. Potential points 723%. Soul Limit 170, Level Five Draconic Aura. Level One Arcane Art Basics.’
His intelligence had only improved a little all this time whereas his potential points were only left with seven points. His Draconic Aura had reached Level Five, meanwhile, his Arcane Art Basics was still a mere Level One as he did not put much effort in it and he just did not have the interest of improving it at the moment. This combat force was taking too much time.
“Seven points attributes… it should be enough. To quickly recover to your peak strength, it’s worth the try,” Garen remembered the Wizard’s way of practice. Slowly crouching down on the ground with his eyes closed, Garen slowly drifted to sleep.
If Void Creatures were born with the ability to control dreams, then Warlocks and Witches were post-natal and they had to practice to acquire this ability.
Garen’s soul belonged to the Demon Lord so naturally, controlling dreams was as simple as drinking water.
He quickly fell asleep in a minute.
Ever since he came to this world, this was the very first time he had a dream, the others were just simply a rest.
After his brain blurred for a bit, Garen suddenly found himself floating in the sky above a barren land. He no longer had the body of a White Dragon and Garen’s human face and body was floating in the sky.
Above him, gray clouds loomed the sky and besides that, nothing could be seen anymore except the gray-brownish piece of wasted land with centipede-like tracks scattered all over the ground. There were no trees, there were no lives, just dead silence.
“This is strange, why would I dream about a place like this?” Garen muttered and began to look for something weird about the dream.
A dream was divided into several levels. The first level of dreams was the retrospective and illusion influenced by the biological instinct memory but most often, dreams of this level had some hidden meanings.
When the living body was in a state of sleep, they were able to receive clearer information and capabilities than in the awake state. Under normal circumstances, they were able to discover other worlds that ordinary creatures could not perceive.
Dark Energy and the Dark Substance World were just a part of it. Under such circumstances, the creatures could only come into contact with beings that were inaccessible under a blur state and they would able to sense different mysterious symbols as well.
As for those signals, they would all turn into stimuli and be reflected in the dream. Due to the brain’s lack of ability to think, they would turn into illogical parts of a dream.
