836: Chapter 49 It’s Just Like the Stars (6700)_3 836: Chapter 49 It’s Just Like the Stars (6700)_3 ——Indeed.

Solstana suddenly had an epiphany: This is the lifespan of a dragon.

Five hundred years is the final limit of enthusiasm.

After five hundred years, dragons gradually lose their nuanced understanding of this world.

If they don’t transform into a higher form of life and acquire a more eternal mindset soon, they will gradually lose their emotions and empathy.

In the end, they become akin to mechanical beings.

So…

It is also time for Him to leave.

[Don’t worry, Mingshan Xuanfeng]

At this moment, He spoke: [That is not a cold disaster, but another old dragon, withering and dying]

[My kin, desiring the Secret Treasure in my hand, attempting their last struggle before death]

Mingshan Xuanfeng lifted his head in astonishment; such disrespect was great, but the Dragon God actually didn’t care about these formalities.

And he himself was shocked by the Dragon God’s direct conversation with the Mountain People for the first time in decades: “Your Majesty?!

You…”

——You actually remember my name?

Although he did not voice this, the dragon could fully guess what he was thinking—not just him, but if the Dragon wished, He could remember the names of all who revered Him as the Dragon God.

So He always knew.

[This is not shelter, just to protect my property]

At this moment, the blizzard was heading towards the Holy Mountain with towering cold cloud mountains like tsunami waves, carrying bone-chilling ice and snow, about to engulf the dragon’s nest.

Yet the aged dragon slowly braced itself, still powerful, still capable of influencing the world.

The Iron Dragon, even as it slowly rusted, could unleash its full strength before death.

With wings spread, the Dragon God lifted its head, gazing at its kin in the endless ice and snow afar—He could hear the roars and threats, and the blatant greed.

[——Solstana, hand over your treasure!]

Battles between dragons always revolve around treasure.

It is commonly said that dragons love gold, silver, and all valuable treasures…

This isn’t wrong because dragons truly covet the most precious fortunes of this land, this planet, this Starfield.

Just like the fragments beneath Him, the fragments in His realm.

And the people in His realm.

Those are truly priceless treasures, whose values cannot be measured.

So, it’s time to take flight, for the last journey—

In the astonishment of Mingshan Xuanfeng, in the eyes of all Mountain People enduring the blizzard, and on the towering peak of the majestic Holy Mountain, shining with a silver flame, the ancient dragon took flight, an incredible force that instantly dispersed all the gloom and snow clouds covering the mountain range.

The sunlight was like a sword, piercing through heaven and earth.

Immediately, a quenched steel-colored light flew upward against the sunlight, heading straight into the heart of all the ice and snow!

The battle of dragons began.

This marks the end of memory, the conclusion of the Quenched Steel Dragon Solstina’s life in the truest sense.

Ian watched all of it, the memories of the Fifth Energy Level True Dragon disintegrated and flew directly into the depths of his soul.

He exhaled deeply, as rows of ancient and hurried subtitles emerged before his eyes.

[Descendants, whoever you may be, dragon or human.

Come to this place, pass the verification, restart the Cradle, and inherit my legacy]

[You will receive my greatest wealth]

[My treasure, technology, kingdom, mountain range, dreams…

and my people]

This was the final message left by the Quenched Steel Dragon as he departed his Dragon Nest to engage in the last battle of his life against the Icefog Dragon.

He came to Terra on a mission, entered death for his wish, and spent a fulfilled and content life, ending everything in the battle he longed for.

Solstana, Quenched Steel Dragon, Bison Dragon God.

These were His names.

Even unto death, He did not uncover the true secret behind the True Dragons, nor did He fully excavate the secrets of the Heavenfall Spaceship’s legacy.

But it wasn’t for a lack of effort, it was simply because He never obtained the Silver Chip.

And now, four hundred years later, the holder of the Silver Chip has come to this ancient mountain range, standing at the peak of the majestic Holy Mountain.

To take over once again, an unfulfilled dream.

Ian opened his eyes in reality, a silver-cyan brilliance sparkling in his pupils.

He felt a surge of power filling his body, not an external boost of Origin Quality, but a more harmonious and stronger force released from his stabilized and perfected constitution after purification and healing.

And information about the ‘Cradle of Twinkling Light,’ the results of Quenched Steel Dragon Solstina’s research on it, also emerged one by one in Ian’s heart.

As Ian had learned from the Silver Chip, the Cradle of Twinkling Light was the ‘Spark Preservation Device’ of the Skyfall Spaceship, capable of preserving anything that housed the essence of civilization within its ‘Static Time Storage Device,’ whether Spirit Energy, biological entities, computer hard drives, or any information-storing medium.

It’s not about halting time, but using Origin Quality to create an Aether Vacuum, halting the movement of every molecule, keeping the interior at near absolute zero—this is the most appropriate preservation method.

However, due to the crash of the Skyfall Spaceship, the energy system was damaged, the most secure Cradle System was dislodged, falling into the Bison Mountain Range, embedded within the mountain itself.

And the Quenched Steel Dragon solidified the mountain with His own power and transformed the entire Yasteel Mountain, using the Natural Spirit Energy of the mountain range to power it.
