Chapter 1 Dragon Heart Island

Dragon Heart Island, Dragon Heart City.

The streets, lined with towering buildings, bustled with activity, especially the port of Dragon Heart City. One transport ship after another docked, unloading cargo into the city, creating a scene of extraordinary prosperity.

The cargo included not only goods from NPCs but also a significant portion brought by players.

Most of these goods were rare items unique to neutral races, such as Thunderwood, Ancient Magic Stones, and Magisteel—items that could not be stored in a player's bag space.

These items were in high demand by various guilds and forces.

Thunderwood was the primary material for crafting advanced speedboats and even Bronze-grade speedboats, possessing high magic resistance. Speedboats made from it had strong resistance to magical attacks.

Ancient Magic Stones were the best materials for crafting production tools, because of the magic power and hardness contained within them. They were the best choice for making experimental platforms, which could increase the success rate of production.

Magisteel was used to reinforce speedboat cannons, imbuing the shells with magical power, greatly increasing their power and attack speed. It could be said to be an indispensable rare material for sea vessels.

These items were hard to obtain in human kingdoms and empires. However, because Dragon Heart City was a neutral trading city, many neutral races transported their specialties here to sell, earning Ancient Gold Coins to exchange for various resources. Moreover, due to the emergence of ancient civilizations in the Earth's Core Mountains, more and more neutral race players began to gather, making Dragon Heart City more prosperous day by day, even surpassing the imperial capitals.

Just as the port of Dragon Heart City was as busy as usual, with merchants transporting goods and adventure teams heading out to level up, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the distant sky.

The dark shadow approached the port of Dragon Heart City, and in less than seven or eight seconds, a giant eagle with a wingspan of over twenty meters appeared before everyone.

The giant eagle was faintly surrounded by cyan arcs of electricity, and its terrifying power caused chaos among the carriages on the port streets. Players who were only in their sixties and seventies felt a sense of pressure, finding it difficult to breathe.

For a time, the entire port was in an uproar.

"Damn! That's a…flying mount!"

"Are flying mounts really that strong?"

"That Thunder Eagle seems to be the mount of Zero Wing's Guild Leader, Black Flame."

"No way! Black Flame actually dares to come to Dragon Heart Island? Doesn't he want to live?"

…

As the giant eagle flapped its wings and landed in front of Dragon Heart City's gate, everyone quickly recognized the giant eagle's identity. Looking at the man in black armor on the giant eagle's back, they couldn't help but discuss.

The name Black Flame was now well-known throughout the Sea of Death. After all, no one was indifferent to the fragments of legendary items.

Previously, Star Ring released news that Black Flame had snatched the fragment of a legendary item dropped by the Storm Serpent King. Everyone was only half-convinced, but news from the Buried Bone Ruins had confirmed that Black Flame possessed a fragment of a legendary item, which made countless players feel excited.

Because the fragment of a legendary item Black Flame possessed was the only known fragment of a legendary item, it could be called a divine artifact. If one could obtain it, the future would be limitless. After all, the Battle Blood Adventure Team had even released a battle video.

With just a few simple moves, the Battle Blood's Vice Leader, Grass-and-Wood Autumn, who used Divine Power Crystal, was instantly killed. The increase in strength from a fragment of a legendary item was imaginable.

Because of this, experts and forces throughout the Sea of Death had begun to frantically investigate Shi Feng, looking for his whereabouts, preparing to secretly take action to seize the fragment of a legendary item. At this time, Shi Feng running to Dragon Heart Island was like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

The safety of Dragon Heart Island naturally surpassed those of the imperial capitals, comparable to the existence of Blackwing City. Players who wanted to take action inside were simply courting death, but players could not take action but could track Shi Feng. There were many types of tracking magic, and it was too easy not to attract the attention of NPCs.

Afterward, as long as Shi Feng dared to leave the safe area of God's Domain, there would be endless pursuits and blockades.

Just as Shi Feng got off the Thunder Eagle, members of the major forces at the port informed their superiors of the news.

"What? Black Flame appeared in Dragon Heart City?"

"Keep an eye on him! I will send a tracking expert over now. Absolutely can't let him run away! That fragment of a legendary item is mine!"

Upon receiving the news, the major forces immediately sent all their tracking experts to Dragon Heart City. Some forces even put down their original plans and immediately rushed to Dragon Heart City.

"Guild Leader Black Flame, is this really okay?" Qing Huang looked at Shi Feng with some worry.

Ever since she stepped off the Thunder Eagle, she had noticed that at least hundreds of people were staring at Shi Feng. Even she felt a chill run down her spine at this number, and this was only the beginning. There would probably be more people coming later.

"Don't worry, they can only watch." Shi Feng was not surprised by this. He smiled and walked into Dragon Heart City.

In his previous life, anyone who possessed a fragment of a legendary item had received this kind of attention. As more fragments of legendary items appeared, this attention gradually decreased. Now that he had the first known fragment of a legendary item, this kind of trouble was inevitable, which was why he had always kept it a secret from Fire Dance and the others.

If he encountered such a thing before reaching level 100, it would indeed be very troublesome, but now that he had reached level 100, no force could do anything to him.

Not to mention in the city, even in the wild, he did not have to worry.

Because the leveling maps he was going to were all above level 100, which was an absolute forbidden zone for players below level 100. Going in meant death, let alone dealing with him.

This was why he dared to fly over so boldly.

Seeing Shi Feng's confidence, Qing Huang didn't say anything, but her evaluation of Shi Feng in her heart increased a lot. Not many people could stand up in the face of danger when the Pavilion Master encountered trouble, especially when it involved a fragment of a legendary item. Even the Guild Leader of a super guild wouldn't dare to take such a risk.

Afterward, Qing Huang led Shi Feng to the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's residence in Dragon Heart City.

At this time, the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's residence was extremely lively. The guild executives, who were usually difficult to see, had all come. In addition to the guild executives, even the guild elders had come. These people were generally scattered in various kingdoms and empires, and were all overlords in their own right. Their gathering here excited the members stationed at the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's residence.

God's Domain was becoming more and more popular. In addition to work, people almost always talked about things inside God's Domain.

The executives of large guilds were like celebrities. Just being able to see the executives of those large guilds in person would become a topic of conversation for ordinary players, let alone the executives and elders of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion. For these players, these people were all unattainable bigwigs.

Just as the players at the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's residence were talking, a heroic woman with shoulder-length short hair, wearing cyan light armor, and whose appearance was no less than Zhao Yueru's, walked in, instantly causing a commotion throughout the residence.

"Look, even the Azure Sky Knight, who mixes in the neutral kingdoms, has come!"

"I heard that she has always been uninterested in the internal affairs of the guild. Why is she here?"

Even the executives of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion were surprised by the arrival of this heroic woman.

Because this beauty had an extraordinary status in the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion. She was named the Azure Sky Knight by Tianji Pavilion and was originally Feng Qianyu's biggest competitor, but she voluntarily gave up because she was not interested in the position of Pavilion Master. Afterward, she went to develop in the neutral kingdoms, which allowed Feng Qianyu to easily become the Pavilion Master.

The Azure Sky Knight, Feng Qingyueluo, had defeated the major super forces in the neutral kingdoms and controlled the entire neutral kingdoms. Her achievements were remarkable, allowing the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion to obtain many resources unique to the neutral races. Not long ago, she had even mastered the Domain and became the guild's true pillar. No one expected her to appear here now.

Just as the people of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion were discussing, the Azure Sky Knight, Feng Qingyueluo, walked directly towards Nine Dragons Emperor, which made the originally surprised crowd even more unbelievable.

"Nine Dragons, I hope you keep your word, otherwise you know the consequences!" Feng Qingyueluo walked up to Nine Dragons Emperor and said coldly.

"Of course." Nine Dragons Emperor smiled and introduced the two men beside him, "Let me introduce you, this is the President of Star Ring, Lu Xingluo, and this is the leader of the Battle Blood Adventure Team, Oathblood Battle Soul. I think you should be able to rest assured now."

"I see, no wonder you are so confident." Feng Qingyueluo glanced at the two and said nothing more.

The arrival of Feng Qingyueluo made the executives of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion feel a little sympathy for Feng Qianyu. Although the ordinary members of the guild did not know the meaning of this meeting, everyone present knew that today was the day to decide who would be the Grand Pavilion Master.

Nine Dragons Emperor not only had the help of two super forces, but now even the Azure Sky Knight, Feng Qingyueluo, was on Nine Dragons Emperor's side. Even if the Grand Pavilion Master favored Feng Qianyu, he would probably be powerless to change anything.

Just as the executives of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion were whispering, a commotion suddenly came from outside the gate of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's residence.

A man and a woman were slowly walking towards the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion's residence on the street, followed by a thousand people with wolf-like eyes and considerable strength. There were even some Micro Realm experts, making people feel chills down their spines. As they got closer and closer, many people recognized the identities of the man and woman.

"Black Flame!"

The man and woman were none other than Shi Feng and Qing Huang, who had walked over from the gate of Dragon Heart City.

"No way! Zero Wing's Black Flame is here!"

"How dare he come?"
