The Chaos Dragon Prince

"Only that it occurred about 3 million years ago. And that…ah? Isn't this also the era where some sort of terrifyingly powerful race quickly rose to the summit?" Cain promptly answered.

"That's putting very lightly." Shi Wei smiled before continuing on in a slightly more serious tone. "The Emperor Spirit Era is perhaps the most terrible time of the Divine Boundless Heaven and is still greatly affecting us all to this day. In that era, there indeed was a rightening race. They were called the Crystal Spirits. This was a cruelly vicious race that had plunged the universe into dark oppression. Nobody, no matter their race, could raise their heads above a slave status. That is until two Divine Mortal rose up against the impossible situation and paved the way for the Divine Boundless Heaven. These two were the first Divine Mortals and were called Crimson Lord and Fairy Fath."

Narrowing his eyes, Cain slowly said, "Those two…they kind of sound familiar to the present."

Shi Wei nodded. "It's no small coincidence. Alright, let me tell you children one of the most important stories in our Divine history."

…

Eras ago, in an unclaimed territory of the Divine Plan.

Here, the forest ran wild, showcasing barely any development from any kind of lifeforms.

A certain pungent stench permeated the air. Smelling it would feel beyond disgusting, to the point where if one isn't strong enough, they would continuously hurl without question.

In this wild, sickening forest, a group of 8 humans was actually slowly traversing.

These humans stuck close together, all wearing oversized hoodies to cover their identities. Each of them is high in the mortal realm of cultivation.

The man leading them was actually a peak Sacred Sage expert!

While the rest were either ordinary Sacred Sage experts or peak Sky Sages. There were only two who were Middle Stage Sky Sages, and they stood at the rear of the group.

But still, against other Mortal realm cultivators, this was a terrifying force.

As the humans walked, they all were quietly conversing among themselves.

"Scarlett City…Scarlett City. Just up ahead, we can finally escape from those damn Crystal Spirit demons' vile clutches. I'm almost shaking in disbelief."

"With this, we all can finally start a new life. No more of anything else. I'm just so…tired."

"I feel like I will simply collapse once we make it inside the city gate."

The morale of half of the group was a mix of somber with great relief.

Living hell upon hell for so many years, their minds had nearly broken down. But through strokes of lucks, they all can finally see a glimmer of hope in their grimly dark future.

However, the uprising morale wasn't shared with the other half of the ground. They served as a direct contrast in believing in this supposed hope.

"Ok, we managed to survive. But what if everything else? Our homeland that we painstakingly cultivated, our friends, our family, all killed, pillaged, torn to shreds by those vile demons! And yet, here we're are, about to go into another City with our heads kept permanently down."

"At this point, what makes us different from these vicious Dao beasts with little to no intelligence to speak off? Traveling like rats because we had everything taken away from us. I really wonder about this so-called new life…"

"To me, it all just feels…pointless…"

Their highly negative words, depressive tone surged, washing over the rest of the group.

No matter how negative they were, how could the others deny their words.

The ones with surging morale suddenly felt as a needle pricked into their minds. Their hands subconsciously clenched from the painful recall of tragic memories.

Suddenly, the leader of the group finally stepped in.

"Enough!" The leader spoke with a steel-like tone, cold, harsh, one that was impossible to argue against. "So what if we have everything taken away from us? So what if we're no different from mere Dao beasts. Do you not realize what the nature of humanity is? Or the nature of life as a whole? That is to endure! Even in the Primal Vaiser Era, we humans, or any other race for that matter, were at the very bottom of the food chain. One race has always particularly dominated. But despite this, we humans continue to survive. And that is by enduring. Only by enduring can we see a true ray of hope! If we continue this morale and don't even try to live, that is when all hope is lost!"

The leader's words were like a thunderclap on everyone in the group. Even the Middle Stage Sky Sages in the back who appeared the calmest felt as if their Soul's Core were directly stirring.

Each of them just simply pondered about it.

The Primal Vaiser Era seemed to be simply impossible for the human race to survive, and yet here they are now.

In this ruthless era, the group members all clearly recall hundreds of thousands of humans mercilessly slaughtered like weeds of grass getting cut down.

There wasn't a single regard for life itself under the Crystal Spirits' rule.

And yet…it was still impossible to eradicate all humans!

One of the reasons why?

Because they endure for hope!

By truly enduring, they can slog through slavery, oppression, the tyranny for a far better future.

It was moments later that everyone who fell into contemplation felt their morale powerfully surge.

"Yes…yes! Leader's right! We just need to endure. Enduring is much better than losing all hope."

"Even I don't want all that I did to be for nothing. Enduring is unmistakably something we all need to do!"

Their morales were at an all-time high. They all can see a road not filled with countless disasters. But rather, a road that brightly prospers for the whole human race!

The human group had just started to walk with a noticeable drive in their steps.

But right then, three unfathomable auras descended upon the whole area, causing everyone and everything to stop as if they were legitimately frozen.

Everyone in the human group looked ahead, nearly all widening their eyes in shock and despair.

Their pupils shrunk to needle sizes, their bodies uncontrollably quivered, their mental state nearly collapsed entirely.

From a hundred meters away, three people were slowly sauntering over with a supremely confident stride in their steps.

They walked with absolute certainty. Their unique crystal silver pupils shined with unprecedented clarity, exuding a presence that told they had everything under their control.

No mortal man, mortal genius, shrewdly intelligent person, or even an ambitious emperor could stand tall in the presence of these three beautiful young people.

There were two handsome men, exuding an enthralling heroic aura, and one fairy-like beautiful woman who seemed to come down from heaven itself.

Each of them wore the same luxuriously crystal silver robes and had the same crystal silver hair.

These three were the race that struck absolute fear into humans, Dragons, Phoenixes, Vermillion Birds, Golden Crows, and any other Divine Monster race.

The Crystal Spirit race!

Nearly everyone in the human group stayed rooted to their spots like stature, fear twisting their expression into something horrendously looking.

Even the mighty group leader, the one who inspires morale, the one who is at the absolute zenith of the Sacred Sage realm, was gripped with utter fear.

However, it wasn't only the fact that these three were from the Crystal Spirit race but also that each of them was in the Divine Origin realm!

These Crystal Spirits weren't even incredibly powerful, only just 1st Fall experts.

But just this was more than enough for any mortal realm group.

After all, this was the separation of Divine and mortal. How could anyone cross this boundary?!

It was simply impossible!

Even the Crystal Spirits' mere natural Divine aura was giving each human an indescribable amount of pressure. They were suppressed in an instant.

As the Crystal Spirits slowly approached, their own leader spoke in an elegant-sounding voice.

"Indeed, that human wasn't lying to us. Nine remaining survivors. You know you all could just make this far easier on yourself? No bloodshed but a simple exchange of words."

The handsome man on his left followed up with, "Mn. We honestly gave it our best effort when consulting with small human groups or big settlement cities. If you weren't so disagreeable, everything could be much less complicated."

The fairy-like woman had even giggled like a soft angel. "Yes. Just accept our Soul Alliance agreement obediently, and there won't be any problems. The human who gave us the means to follow you had already given into the agreement. Shouldn't you all too? Aren't you tired at all from having to continually run around, not knowing whether or not today will be your last?"

Despite their vicious reputation, the Crystal Spirits spoke with such class and elegance directly that they seemed to uphold the utmost virtue.

None of them seemed like savages at all.

However, how could these experienced humans be so easily swayed by the false surface?

But there was one immensely worrying thing they took away from the Crystal Spirit's words.

"You-you, what do you mean a human gave us our location?! I refuse to believe it! No way our human race will sell each other out!!"

Even under immense fear, the group leader still had the gall to yell straight at the Crystal Spirit.

The Crystal Spirit group leader only retained his elegant smile. "Is that what you think? Then please, take a look at this."

The leader quickly out a recording ring and instilled his Divine essence into it.

A flash sparked from the recording ring, and a stream of essence pooled out. The essence rapidly formulated into a clear screen projection.

On the screen projection, it showcased a mind-shocking scene.

A human was kneeling at the foot of the same three Crystal Spirits. Tears flowed down his face, and his clothes were stained with blood, but a determined expression was etched upon his face.

The same group leader of the Crystal Spirits nodded and flicked a Soul Alliance agreement core into the human, causing him to quiver only for a brief moment.

Afterward, the human slowly stood up without any intention to fight.

At this scene, the screen projection ended.

And complete, utter silence filled the whole area.
