Chapter 552 - Chapter 552: Chapter 507 The Seven Stars Emperors Invitation_2 (2/2)
Upon learning from the envoy of the Seven Stars Empire that the final key to the Seven Stars Emperor’s ascent to the Heavenly Enlightenment Level was the legendary core of the Aether Giant Dragon, she instantly sank into an unprecedented depth of somber contemplation.
The Aether Giant Dragon was considered a mythical creature from the ancient times on the Ouden Continent, its power so immense it could shake the heavens and earth, and its core contained endless energy and wisdom, sought after by countless extraordinarily powerful experts.
“We need to discuss this…”
“Of course.”
With the arrival of the Seven Luminaries Envoy and the proactive response of the Fischer family, an alliance concerning the future framework of the continent was quietly forming.
And all of this would show even deeper influences after the powers of the Seven Stars Emperor further awakened.
Inside the grand hall of the Fischer family, the lights were bright, the atmosphere tense and serious.
“The Seven Stars Emperor wants our help to obtain the core of the Aether Giant Dragon?”
Austin’s voice carried deep concern as he said, “The Aether Giant Dragon is definitely of the Heavenly Enlightenment Level, it’s somewhat risky.”
Christine immediately said, “The immense benefits our alliance with the Seven Stars Empire would bring are significant. The Seven Stars Emperor’s power is awakening, his influence and strength are growing day by day. If we can become his ally, it would undoubtedly greatly enhance the Fischer family’s influence on the continent, as well as bring us a vast amount of resources.”
“The most important thing is, as long as the people of the Seven Suns Empire and the Lorne citizens are adversaries, it will buy us more time.”
The opinions of the family members gradually diverged until it came time to vote.
Eventually, under the chairmanship of family head Christine, the Fischers reached a consensus through voting:
“We, the Fischer family, have decided to ally with the people of the Seven Suns Empire and assist him in acquiring the core of the Aether Giant Dragon. This will mark another significant decision in the history of the Fischer family.”
In fact, only one person was the key.
That was Chris Fischer.
The Aether Giant Dragon had the formidable presence of the Heavenly Enlightenment Level, and among the Fischer family, only Chris possessed the potent strength to confront or even kill those of the Heavenly Enlightenment Level.
When he was ready, he would assist the Seven Suns Empire in obtaining the Aether Giant Dragon’s core.
It was the first encounter of the Seven Luminaries Envoy with “The Death God of Cyart,” Chris Fischer, and just upon seeing him, he immediately felt that inhuman aura.
Although not as majestic and luxurious as His Majesty, it bore a chilling, austere deadness that made it impossible to look directly at.
Of course, the first thing the Fischer family needed to do was… find out where the Aether Giant Dragon was located.
However, the Seven Luminaries Envoy soon revealed a shocking secret.
“Actually, you have always had access to the path leading to the Aether Giant Dragon’s lair here, but you have never known. Think about it, isn’t there an entrance to the Spirit Realm nearby?”
“That legendary ancient dragon resides deep within the Crystal Palace.”
“So it is.” Christine realized.
The Fischer family were learning for the first time that near Nasir City in the nearby forest, that entrance linking to the Spirit Realm—to the deepest part of the Crystal Palace—is where the Aether Giant Dragon had long made its nest.
Christine murmured to herself, “I never thought we were always so close to the real Heavenly Enlightenment, yet it could never show itself in the Spirit Realm because even there, entrance is still restricted by the powers of the Gods.”
“So when do we leave?” the Seven Luminaries Envoy asked.
“We mustn’t rush,” Chris suddenly spoke.
His words immediately precluded any further questions.
Becoming a Heavenly Enlightenment, Chris’s status had risen even higher than before—now except for a Divine Oracle from the Lord of the Lost, no one else’s words could surpass Chris’s.
Indeed, everyone was quite aware that hunting a Heavenly Enlightenment was an unprecedented event for the Fischer family.
So, there was no rush.
Thus, in the days that followed, cooperation between the Fischer family and the Seven Stars Empire deepened, as both sides together prepared for the hunting of the Aether Giant Dragon.
