Rise of the White Dragon

Chapter 286: Strength of the Sixth Order

In Leviathan there were no houses, or anything like that, but the place itself was nice, with beautiful lawn, flowers, trees, and even some unique animals. There was also the part that was the one that Luan had collected for Ingrid, which was a piece of frozen land with lots of beautiful flowers.

While Luan began to meditate with the natural crystals, wanting to strengthen himself, Ingrid, Nora and Little Rikka were talking casually. Little Rikka was 9 years old when she was frozen in time. She had always lived with her mother in the Emerald Clan. She had no memories of her father, and apparently hated her father because, the way she talked about him was filled with hate in her childish voice.

“Baby, Mom is going to make you something delicious, yes?”

On Ingrid’s lap was Little Rikka sitting comfortably. Hearing this, Rikka’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

She got up and nodded several times. “Rikka is looking forward to it.”

“Hehe, okay, it won’t be long,” Ingrid said with a giggle.

Soon, she took out her utensils.

Back on Earth…

Maira made the Dimas company grow to the point of being number 1 on Earth. The numbers of users of the game (Online Survival) were large enough to believe that more than half of humans were using the game.

Lenore was good at managing things, so she volunteered to help Maira. She stayed these days as Maira’s personal secretary, which was one of the main reasons why Maira managed to make the company grow so much.

Another reason was the smartphone that Luan had made earlier; they had already started the launch with the Dimas brand, with a Blue Diamond on the back of the smartphone. It was good enough to play Survival Online, and the top models had the holographic option, despite being more expensive. Even though it was the most expensive smartphone on earth, the settings weren’t lacking.

“Grandma Maira, here is your tea.” A scent of fennel and mint wafted into Maira’s office, just as there was something else, special ingredients were made that she brought from the tower shop.

Her knowledge was abundant, Lenore knew the benefit of such things. Only one cup was able to have a 1% chance of getting enlightenment and learning the Art of Hyperfocus. On the 50th floor, it was common for living beings in the Fifth Order to have this art.

Lenore’s hope was that her kin from Earth would learn it too. She’s been adding some things that can spark this art in their food or drink.

“Thanks.” Maira took it and took a small sip. Maira’s eyes sparkled with joy, the taste unmatched by the tea she’d drank earlier.

“I’m glad you liked it,” Lenore said with a small smile.

Maira sighed. “I liked it so much that I can become addicted to that taste.”

“Hehee~” Lenore showed a rare cute expression as she laughed, then she said, “If that’s the case, Grandma Maira can always come with me to the 50th floor and I’ll be happy to get more for you.”

“Alright, when I get stronger, I’ll do that,” Maira smiled.

Ten days later, Luan opened his eyes. He had used almost all of the natural crystals. His improvement was so much that he managed to reach the 2nd Layer of Law Transformation Realm, while in the body, he made it to the 2nd Layer of the Twelve Lives Realm. His mind had already reached the fifth stage of Hyperfocus, while his extrasensory perception improved by 50%.

‘Should be enough…’ Luan muttered in his mind.

Getting to his feet, he didn’t go to Ingrid, Nora, and Little Rikka, but toward the lake. Even if he took care in his cultivation, impurity was almost inevitable. Now his body reeked of impurity.

After he finished washing himself, he went to the small house made of the earth element. Looking at the structure, Luan figured it had been constructed by Nora, as it was very much her style to do something like that.

“You’re finally done~” Ingrid smiled at him as she saw him walk into the house just as they were eating breakfast.

“Mm.” Luan chuckled a little. “Haha, it took longer than I expected, but I got the strength of 42 dragons with the body and Qi.”

“Already?!” Nora could not remain calm. This was equivalent to strength in the Sixth Order. Despite being only the beginning of the Sixth Order, yet it was too incredible to be true.

Luan smiled. “A good bricklayer who already knows how to build a building wouldn’t take as long as it took to build the first one.”

Nora wrinkled her nose, then she scoffed, “That’s a fact. But wasn’t that too fast?”

“Of course it was, but…” Luan smiled again. “It’s all thanks to the natural crystals. I was able to fill the gaps in my cultivation thanks to the pure energy of the natural crystals, thus having a breakthrough in cultivation.”

“…I’m speechless. This is very unbelievable to say the least.” Ingrid sighed. She thought about how Luan was leaving her further and further behind.

‘I need to try harder!’ she promised herself.

Even though Luan didn’t intimidate her, Ingrid liked the feeling of having a strong cultivation like Luan’s.

Luan added, “Obviously, it won’t go on like this, as I was able to have so much improvement salifying my base with natural crystals. Without it, I wouldn’t have had that strength, just being in the 2nd Layer of Law Transformation Realm with Qi , while with the body, on the 2nd Layer of the Twelve Lives Realm.”

“Makes sense,” Lenore nodded. She herself had to undergo baptism to solidify her foundation, so she was able to make it to the Sixth Order with the Body and Qi.

“Are you confident in making it now?” Ingrid asked. She was talking about finding the hidden treasure in the Emerald King’s palace.

“Yeah, at least I have more than a 70% chance of getting it,” Luan replied as he sat down beside her.

Little Rikka was silent all this time, cutting a piece of cake. She carefully placed it on a china plate, then she placed it in front of Luan and smiled cutely. “Dad, for you~” Her voice was sweet.

Luan immediately smiled. “Thank you, treasure.”

“Hehee~” Little Rikka withdrew her hand, cupping her rosy cheeks, and smiled. She liked what Luan had called her. Even the tone of voice was pleasant, and he was so cute! She had the cutest dad in the world! If Luan knew what Little Rikka was thinking, he would have been very happy.

Eating the cake, Luan smiled at Little Rikka. “It’s a delicious, treasure, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” She tried to act like an adult in response, but her cute voice only made it more adorable.

After breakfast, Luan left the Leviathan.

When Nora, Ingrid and Little Rikka left as well, Luan made the Leviathan go back to being a sword and stored it in his body. Soon, Luan’s powers expanded. His senses were on edge. He felt more clearly the origin of the treasure in the palace. Hovering around the origin of the treasure, Luan began to delete the parts from his mind which he realized were not the correct location.

As he cut out the obvious parts that most likely not the right place, he suddenly looked up at the sky above the palace…

“My God, it was so obvious…” Luan muttered, then he floated to the edge of the underground realm.

The girls looked at him curiously.

As he approached, Luan’s eyes sparkled with radiance. His red eyes blinked, and soon runes left his eyes, just as spells were created from his hands. Crackling sounds, along with the sound of breaking glass, echoed.

Luan continued. The amount of seals and spells, formation and runes he undid were unbelievable, not to mention the speed with which he was doing all this.

“Is it hidden in the air?” Ingrid muttered the obvious. Nora gave her an odd look as she raised an eyebrow, but didn’t bother to comment.

Soon, they saw that Luan had finished the first stage; that’s when they saw a miniature of an emerald blue planet spinning in the air.

“So beautiful!!” Little Rikka had stars in her eyes when she saw this.

“You like it?” Luan was able to hear despite the distance.

“Mm.” Little Rikka nodded obediently.

“Okay, after I finish digging up the treasure that’s hidden inside, I’ll get it back to normal and I’ll give it to you,” he said with a gentle smile.

“Thanks,dad!” Little Rikka was beaming, her pretty face red with excitement.

“What about Lenore?” Nora couldn’t help but mutter.

“Oh, about that.” Luan stopped what he was doing. Looking at her, he replied, “Of course I’ll give her something. She’s my daughter, have you forgotten?”

“Yes, she is.” Nora’s full red lips curve into a charming smile.

“Dad’s lover?” Little Rikka’s curiosity was piqued.

Ingrid was surprised by this question, but then she shook her head a few times and said, “No, she’s not.”

Little Rikka’s eyes watered. She asked, “Mommy, are you a home wrecker?”

“…” Ingrid was speechless. ‘Is this because her father abandoned her mother for another woman? Did she learn this from my sister?’

Nora’s eyes sparkled. She kept looking at it as if enjoying a good show. ‘I want to see how she will respond to that.’
