Chapter 51 - 51 Dragon Nature



The Giant Dragon’s outer scales were extremely hard; they did not like soft things for their nest, but instead, gold and diamonds—which were hard yet not easily crushed—made the most comfortable beds for them. Moreover, gold and diamonds could polish their Dragon Scales, making them even more sturdy and shiny.

Sturdy, to be ready for combat and to maintain an indestructible body.

Shiny, to attract the opposite sex, which follows the same principle as humans liking to wear various beautiful garments.

The saying that a Giant Dragon’s cavern is the richest is absolutely true.

“Winter is coming, and the Giant Dragon should be foraging everywhere to stock up food for winter, ”

“Then we’ll just wait it out. Wait for it to leave, and then empty out its treasure cave!”

Zhu Minglang gazed at the group of Cliff Vultures, suddenly feeling they were wonderful little guiding spirits. Their greyish-brown dirty feathers and pointed faces seemed especially adorable…eat slower, eat slower, don’t choke to death.

“We’re going to be loaded.” Though his words carried a draft, it did not diminish Zhu Minglang’s joy.

Finally, he could become rich overnight!

After planting a big kiss on Little White, Zhu Minglang picked a safe place, settling down in that cave first.

Whenever the Dragon above moved, that was when he would make his move! As soon as he heard about stealing things, Little White’s little eyes lit up with excitement, even more than when facing an evenly matched opponent.

This was odd, as defeating the Dragon fair and square and then taking its things actually yielded the same profit.

But to snatch someone’s treasure with little effort while they guard it rigorously, and to then make a swift getaway and watch them fluster with anger—suddenly the treasure seemed much more delightful!

He had done this plenty of times before, but the joy had never diminished!

Zhu Minglang looked into Little White’s clear eyes, which suddenly became shifty; while retaining its spirit, how did it gain a hint of cunning akin to a little fox?

This plunged Zhu Minglang into brief contemplation…

It’s said that a Dragon’s temperament closely reflects its master’s. Could Little White’s nature actually be his own issue??

A competent hunter needs patience. Zhu Minglang still had some jerky with him, intending to keep up this stalemate with the Giant Dragon above.

Big Black Tooth had recently eaten to its fill, so it could sustain for many days.

With nectar carried by Little White, it was certainly not going to starve.

At night, the Giant Dragon above showed no signs of movement. It seemed that the Dragon had just come back from outside when Zhu Minglang entered the cave, but Zhu Minglang did not hear any eating sounds above.

As larger creatures, they must have a large appetite to maintain their body heat. Without anything in their stomachs, they would constantly be using up their reserves, which is akin to constantly reducing their strength and power. Should a stronger predator come along, they wouldn’t even have the energy to flee.

Zhu Minglang believed that, even if the Giant Dragon had just eaten its fill, it wouldn’t take many days before it needed to hunt again—especially since winter, a time when all is dormant and predators most anxious, was just around the corner.

Two days.

Three days.

On the fourth day, its hair disheveled, Zhu Minglang finally heard a noise from Dragon Cliff!

“Huff! !

It was the sound of meaty wings flapping. Zhu Minglang looked up through the crevice and saw a Giant Dragon covered in mossy scales gradually ascending. Its wings were as large as pine tree canopies, casting a shadow that instilled fear…

It was a Forest Giant Dragon!

And clearly, it was a fully matured one, its aura radiating much stronger than Big Black Tooth’s!

Zhu Minglang could not gauge its strength.

Beings in their Mature Period and Complete Period were very similar. If the Forest Giant Dragon was at the Complete Period, even the Ice Morning White Dragon might not be able to subdue it!

Not recklessly using brute force was wise.

Zhu Minglang started to act.

He hadn’t been simply waiting these past few days; he had already figured out the habits of those Guardian Beast Cliff Vultures. Effortlessly bypassing this group of vultures, Zhu Minglang immediately darted into the deeper parts of the cliff cave.

Deep in the cliff cave, it ascended, obviously connecting to the mountain’s upper cliffside. Zhu Minglang followed it up and soon saw a massive beam of light slanting down from above, like giant spears piercing the darkness beneath them.

Zhu Minglang approached that light, finding both above his head and the direction from which he came patrolled by Cliff Vultures. After the Forest Giant Dragon left, the vulture guards became more stringent. Sadly, they could never have imagined that someone had already hidden inside much earlier.

The inside was almost unguarded. Zhu Minglang moved towards the place where the light poured in to find a Dragon’s nest carved from the cliff top with their claws.

The Dragon’s nest was nearly the size of a courtyard, covered with gold, silver, and jewels. The slanting sunlight that fell on just a small part of it dazzled the eyes with splendor!

Zhu Minglang stared at the Red Agates, Platinum, Orange Gold, and Emeralds, his eyes nearly popping out!!

No wonder Giant Dragons liked to collect them. Putting these gorgeous treasures together, letting them shine with their brilliant radiance—it truly made up the most beautiful scene in the world!!!

It was not in vain that he lived on wind and dew; this Forest Giant Dragon was indeed the world’s most adorable sprite.

“Bai Qi, do you still remember that move?” Zhu Minglang asked urgently.

Little Bai Qi nodded his head vigorously, excitedly raising his long tail. The tail began to stir incessantly in mid-air, rippling like a whirlpool…

The longer the tail swayed, the stronger and yet silent the suction force became within the dragon’s nest. The pitiful gemstones that were scattered on the ground began to lift themselves up and fly like swallows returning to their nest toward the vortex that Little Bai Qi’s tail had formed.

Zhu Minglang remembered that in the past, this move of Little Bai Qi’s was used to absorb the enemy’s Profound Art and could even reflect the power back at the attacker, but he didn’t know when this technique had gradually degenerated!

“Little Bai Qi, you’re too genuine. You’ve lost the Azure Dragon Mystics from the past, but you haven’t forgotten this Theft Technique,” Zhu Minglang said with a sense of satisfaction watching Little Bai Qi’s skilled operation.

Before long, the treasure of this nest had been gathered into Little Bai Qi’s storage technique, and Little Bai Qi looked rather satisfied.

With no intention of lingering, Zhu Minglang and Bai Qi quickly made their getaway.

“Woooah!!!!!!!”

Cries came from behind them, piercing and intermingling together.

Zhu Minglang hastily hid, thinking they had been discovered.

After a while, those cries echoed in the cave again. It seemed that a large flock of Cliff Vultures had returned, stepping up their vigilance around the perimeter as the Forest Giant Dragon left its nest.

They still hadn’t checked the dim and empty dragon’s nest, which greatly relieved Zhu Minglang.

Being able to leave unnoticed was the best outcome!

“We probably can’t go back the way we came, let’s climb out from the top here,” Zhu Minglang decided, realizing the cave they had arrived through was now full of Cliff Vultures. They resolved to leave via the top of the cliff, using the plants there to hide from the patrolling Cliff Vultures above.

Climbing up from the dragon pit, Zhu Minglang moved extremely cautiously, while Little Bai Qi also tried to control the wind elements near the cliff to disturb the patrolling Cliff Vultures.

Upon reaching the top of the cliff, which was covered with thick, soft vines, Zhu Minglang poked his head out and, seeing that the top was clear, immediately jumped out of the dragon pit and hid under an old tree draped with long branches.

There were many Cliff Vultures in the sky. Little Bai Qi continued to manipulate the wind, waiting for the strong breeze to force the patrolling Cliff Vultures to hide in the pine trees above before Zhu Minglang could leave. Otherwise, the Cliff Vultures would surely chase them all the way until the Forest Giant Dragon arrived.

Waiting silently for the right moment, Zhu Minglang couldn’t help but look towards the soft vines and noticed those dry vines didn’t seem to grow naturally. Instead, they were broken and piled up, forming something like a large grass nest.

An idea flashed through Zhu Minglang’s mind when he saw this nest of vines.

He stepped back and hid behind a tree. Just then, a large head emerged from the nest of vines, with light green skin, snake-like pupils, large nostrils, and slightly protruding dragon horns!

The head slowly lifted, its eyes surveying the pine trees that were swaying intensely in the wind.

Young Dragons??

Zhu Minglang was astonished.

No wonder the Forest Giant Dragon had always stayed at the top of the cliff; there was a hidden nest up here for the young dragons that had not yet grown hard scales!

The young dragon hadn’t spotted Zhu Minglang; it was just curiously looking around.

Seemingly realizing that the Dragon Mother had gone out, the Forest Young Dragon suddenly made a joyful sound and started to crawl outwards with something in its mouth toward the edge of the cliff…

Zhu Minglang looked carefully and realized that the Forest Young Dragon’s mouth was holding an even smaller dragon hatchling!

The hatchling being carried had some wounds on its body, clearly inflicted not long ago.

The older young dragon accelerated its pace after leaving the vine nest.

When it reached the edge of the cliff, the little hatchling began to struggle and let out a miserable cry, as if pleading for something.

Unfortunately, the older young dragon was unmoved. It bit the little hatchling again, then flung the hatchling forcefully!

With no developed wings, the little hatchling plummeted straight down, its shrill and terrified screams instantly echoing around the cliff.

Zhu Minglang was stunned.

This was definitely not the older brother teaching its younger brother how to fly.

This was the larger young dragon taking advantage of the Dragon Mother’s absence to throw its underdeveloped sibling off the cliff!!

Zhu Minglang had now witnessed the blood of the Giant Dragon boiling like magma, but its nature as cold as a snake.

Even as dragons transcend Ordinary Spirits, they still follow the cruel laws of this world.

Dragons are powerful, capable of easily killing fierce tigers and wild buffalo, but in reality, at the level of dragons, ordinary wildlife can hardly satisfy them.

If the food does not meet their bodily needs, eating a sheep or cow is like humans chewing on grass roots and tree bark.

They need to hunt specific magical beasts, and since these beasts have a certain level of intelligence and survival skills, they can hide, making it difficult for even Giant Dragons to find them!

Food that can replenish their body’s energy and at the same time restore their magic is always scarce!

Some underdeveloped dragons may even fall prey to certain Demon Spirits. In order to grow robustly on their own, the larger young dragon not only often bit the little hatchling but now, with the onset of winter, had fully revealed its true nature!

In the past, Zhu Minglang had heard some rumors about Giant Dragons infighting within their nests, but witnessing it firsthand today was still shocking!
