Chapter 25 - Devouring Dragon Palace (2)

Ding!

[Host has opened the Dragon Kitchen]

[Dragon Kitchen: A place where the delicacies of food and nutrients are made by chefs. Only chefs hand-picked can work in and use this place.]

Drake was surprised to see a familiar set of kitchens—familiar to him, as this was how kitchens on Earth looked—but this one looked more classic, and in terms of aura, it didn't feel like a kitchen.

Ding!

[Host has opened the Dragon Chamber]

[Dragon Chamber: A private room of the Dragon Emperor. There are also rooms for the Dragon Council. It is a place that offers comfort to oneself.]

Drake entered to see a large room with a large bed that had engravings of dragons. The soft bed was enticing to the eyes, and Drake couldn't help himself from touching it. When he touched it, he realized just how soft the bed was.

He jumped onto the bed, and Drake found himself drifting into Dreamland as his eyes slowly closed. Drake quickly forced himself to stand up when he noticed this. He was still going through the palace—there was no way he could sleep now.

"What a soft bed, it feels more like a lady's breast. A comfort zone for sleeping," Drake muttered, as he left the Dragon Chambers.

Ding!

[Host has entered the Dragon Gate Room]

[Dragon Gate ("The carp that leaps over the Dragon Gate becomes a dragon."): A place of trial where, before becoming a member of the Dragon Palace, one must pass through—unless hand-picked by the Host. If able to successfully cross and leap over the Dragon Gate, they would be worthy of becoming a member of the Dragon Palace.]

[Due to the Dragon Palace being at Level 1, the Dragon Palace can only test those at Origin Ancestor Realm and below.]

Drake saw a large golden doorway—no, it looked like a colossal monument, alive with energy, forged from both the past and the cosmos. It rose over a hundred meters high, formed from unknown dragon bone he didn't recognize, but it looked as if it had veins as it glowed.

The arch of the gate was shaped like a coiling dragon swallowing its own tail. The space within the arch was filled with ever-shifting Originat Mist, and runic glyphs floated around the frame of the gate.

When Drake saw the gates, he was surprised. He could feel an immense and immovable aura from it, a true testament to its power. He smiled at this, feeling the urge to test it out.

"You would have to transfer it to the entrance of the array for you to be able to test creatures who are eligible to become dragons and part of the Dragon Clan. But for now, no one is around the palace, so no need to rush yourself," Drax said.

Drake nodded at this. For now, he was still the only one in the Dragon Clan. He walked toward the Dragon Gate—he wanted to check himself out. Getting within range of the gate, he found that he could feel no pressure from it, which confused him.

"Idiot, you are the Dragon Emperor—how do you expect it to work on you? Also, you are a Devouring Dragon, that of an Emperor bloodline, so it can't work on you," Drax said, making Drake aware of his circumstances.

"Oh. You have said so, then," Drake said, as he left the Dragon Gate.

Ding!

[Host has entered the Dragon Pool Room]

[Dragon Pool: A place where dragons are bred—the place of power in the Dragon Palace. The Dragon Pool can absorb the essence of whatever is thrown into it: demonic beasts, spirit herbs, weapons, or rare minerals. The pool converts the corpses of powerful enemies into dragon blood. This dragon blood contains immense vitality, energy, and cultivation essence. The stronger the enemy corpse, the purer and more potent the blood produced.]

For anyone bound to the Dragon Palace, if their body is destroyed, and if Host is able to get hold of their soul, their body can be reconstructed in the Dragon Pool. The pool can rapidly increase the cultivation of dragons and also awaken hidden potential.

Cultivators who bathe in the pool or absorb its blood can gain a draconic bloodline. Percentage depends on talent and determination. Absorbing one hundred percent of the blood means you are a fully-fledged dragon.

If Host finds certain materials which the system would point to, different draconic bloodlines would be awakened.

Drake stood before a massive natural basin, roughly oval in shape, spanning over a hundred meters across, and glowing with an ethereal light.

Ding!

[Due to Host's pact with the Death Spirit, a draconic bloodline has been formed: Death Dragon Bloodline]

[Host has gained a skill: Dragon Gluttony]

Dragon Gluttony: With every draconic bloodline Host awakens, Host gains the bloodline and its abilities. This is a blessing given by the Devouring Dragon God and the Dragons.

When Drake read this, he was honestly surprised by it. When he saw the Dragon Gluttony, he was astonished and shocked. For every draconic bloodline that is awakened, he would have the bloodline and the ability. So this means he would have the bloodline of over hundreds of dragons.

"Now, this is what we are talking about," Drake smiled as he began to think of such scenes. He knew he still had to discuss it with Drax for further explanation about this.

Ding!

[Host has entered the Dragon Tower]

[Dragon Tower: A tower formed since the beginning of the Dragon Clan—a place of trial where dragons can increase their combat level and strength. It has thousands of floors. As for how many floors, Host would have to find out himself by reaching the end of the tower. For now, only floors relating to Body Foundation Realm to Origin Ancestor Realm are allowed to be entered.]

When Drake read this, he was delighted by the capabilities of the Dragon Tower, making him unable to stop himself from testing out the tower.
