Chapter 386 Lance, I Still Hope that Black Dragon Can Outlast You
Lance did not believe that the Sacred Golden Giant Dragon Constandy simply wanted to catch a glimpse of his second Domain. He had displayed this Domain in front of Austin and Erinna, and he did not mind letting Constandy know about it.
He was not afraid of Constandy shattering this Domain. Besides these two Domains, he had other ones, and the new Domain "Heavenly Court" was also being constructed. Although presently only the South Heavenly Gate had been built, the "Heavenly Court" would become more and more complete over time.
If time permitted, he intended to construct all the mythical constructs from his past life into Domains,
The complete Mythical Domain.
So even if the Sword Domain were destroyed, he would not mind.
"You're not afraid I'll destroy your second Domain?"
"There's nothing to fear. I have no obsession with becoming a Deity. If the Domain shatters, it would be unacceptable for other powerful beings, but for me, it would merely shorten my life span. I am not obsessed with longevity, nor do I fear death."
Constandy looked at Lance with a half-smile, suddenly raising his hand to pat Lance's shoulder, "Your mentality is very good. Keep it up, and you'll truly miss out on the chance to become a god. To condense Divinity, to ignite Divine Fire, with your current mindset, you won't achieve this."
As Constandy spoke, he suddenly realized, could it be that human Lance, who had opened up two Domains, had not condensed his Divinity precisely because of his mindset?
Under normal circumstances, a powerful being like him would have already tried to condense Divinity.
This human... could he really not be interested in becoming a Deity?
"Show a little ambition. If those old guys from the Ancient Temple in the Human World knew that there was someone as peculiar as you in their world, they might be so outraged they'd leave their seclusion to come to the Human World to look for you."
Ancient Temple?
There was such an organization in the Human World?
Lance was surprised; he had roamed the Human World for so many years and never heard of The Ancient Temple, though he had heard of the Source Power Tower.
"What is The Ancient Temple?"
"???"
Constandy's eyes showed disbelief. How could a potent human like Lance not know about The Ancient Temple?
Then, realization dawned upon his face; this guy was so low-profile that even The Ancient Temple had not noticed him.
"The history of The Ancient Temple can be traced back to the era of the Giant Dragons. At that time, the only humans who could contend with us Giant Dragons were the people from The Ancient Temple. Later, the era of the Giant Dragons ended, humans rose, and The Ancient Temple also vanished into the river of history. However, the heroes and braves who appeared suddenly and then disappeared from the Human World... most are related to The Ancient Temple.
My knowledge of The Ancient Temple is limited to this. Oh, and there's a rumor: it's said that some in The Ancient Temple who have not condensed Divinity or ignited Divine Fire - these 'undying elders' - possess strength to contend with Deities.
They haven't made contact with you, which means either you're too low-profile, or you're not yet strong enough for them to consider recruiting you."
The Ancient Temple is that powerful?!
He knew it; the Human World couldn't lack beings strong enough to suppress him as the Black Dragon.
Lucky for him, he never committed evil deeds or intended to infamy himself in the Human World.
Kidnapping princesses for achievements, he picked those from insignificant little kingdoms.
If he weren't cautious enough, he would probably have already attracted the attention of the powerful humans from The Ancient Temple.
Wait----
He had been quite active recently.
Both as the Black Dragon and as human Lance, he had been more active.
His activities as human Lance in Saint Blue were notable: he not only defeated the Giant Dragons from Dragon Island who challenged him, but he even defeated the Prehistoric Evil Dragon Koln.
Oh, he also fought the Holy Golden Giant Dragon Constandy, and though one Domain was "shattered," he still had another...
His identity as the Black Dragon was even more significant: he first defeated the Golden Giant Dragon, the Thunder Giant Dragon Hammomd; and also resisted the encirclement of War Saint Mountain Saintess, Sophia, even defeating the Deity she summoned to assist her twice.
He even managed to overpower the Holy Golden Giant Dragon...
If these combat achievements were to spread, as the Black Dragon, would he not attract the attention of those undying elders from The Ancient Temple?
And human Lance as well, he had brisk combat achievements. If The Ancient Temple were to take notice of Saint Blue, wouldn't they try to get in touch with him?
Subdue the Black Dragon.
Recruit human Lance.
Why didn't Constandy reveal The Ancient Temple to him earlier?
He did not want to engage with an ancient entity like The Ancient Temple. He always felt those who lived in the shadows of history were old silver coins.
"Your reaction is a bit odd. Normally, upon learning there's such a strong and ancient entity in the Human World, you should be excited."
"Excited about what? I'm not particularly interested in becoming a Deity, let alone your so-called Ancient Temple."
"You have a point. Fine, enough talk. Come on, let me see the prowess of your Domain. Don't worry, I'll hold back and won't shatter this Domain."
"Okay."
Lance's figure suddenly vanished from in front of Constandy.
"Galactic Descent."
Sitting on the ground, Constandy sharply raised his head to look up at the night sky. A rift opened in the night sky, and the surging Sword Intent transformed into the waters of the galaxy, pouring down from the heavens, engulfing him.
Constandy closed his eyes, using his Divine Soul to resist Lance's Sword Intent.
The Sword Intent was an attack on his Divine Soul, the cool Sword Intent penetrating his dragon body, directly assaulting his Divine Soul.
Though the Sword Intent was cool, when it manifested as the waters of the galaxy and touched his Divine Soul, it surprisingly made him feel an extreme coldness, a glacial coldness colder than ice and snow.
