The Dragon City Conference begins with many top Dragon Tamers gathering on the Dragonview Platform. While awaiting the Legend of the Holy Dragon, attendees discuss recent events and the mysterious summons. Meng Yao is deeply worried about Su Ping's whereabouts, fearing he might have fallen into a trap set by Charles. Suddenly, the platform trembles, signaling the arrival of the Legend of the Holy Dragon, accompanied by Leng Ao and Wolf Saint. To everyone's surprise, the Legend of the Holy Dragon appears calm and suggests they chat while awaiting a guest of honor.

"I think everyone here already knows about the Heavenly Tomb," the Ghost Saint began. "Previously, this matter was top secret, and we were strictly forbidden from disclosing it to anyone.

"Therefore, to those of you who asked me about it or tried to use your connections to pry into my Legion only to be turned away, I ask for your understanding!"

His opening remarks stunned everyone present. Good heavens, since when did Leng Ao learn to apologize? Given his usual temperament, aside from Old Wolf and the Holy Dragon, they had never seen him yield to anyone. So what was the meaning behind this now?

Obviously, no one spoke up at this moment; they simply waited patiently for Leng Ao to continue. Sure enough, after a brief pause, the Ghost Saint went on.

"Just three days ago, the exploration of the Heavenly Tomb was successfully completed. I believe that not only me, but also my colleagues here, absolutely could not have imagined the situation inside."

At this point, someone finally couldn’t sit still any longer. Meng Yao was the first to speak up, asking, "Ghost Saint, how exactly is Su Ping doing?"

Those qualified to attend this meeting were, without a doubt, either Holy Spirit Level Beastmasters or Breeding Master Level Breeders. Based purely on their Level, they were entities worthy of being awarded the Dragon Emblem. The majority of the people present knew that Su Ping had already entered the Heavenly Tomb. Compared to the tomb itself, many were indeed more concerned about the wellbeing of this once-in-a-millennium genius Breeder of the Dragon Nation. This was especially true for Elder Feng, Zhu Hong, and a few others.

The Ghost Saint glanced at Meng Yao, this time with a fair amount of appreciation. Truth be told, although this youngster wasn’t particularly strong, his concern for Xiao Ping was entirely genuine.

He smiled faintly. "The Holy Dragon has confirmed that Su Ping is perfectly safe and unharmed. He successfully made it out of the Heavenly Tomb!"

At those words, a visible wave of relief washed over everyone. Even the normally stoic Wolf Saint seemed to relax, the bulging veins on his arms subsiding slightly.

Legend of the Holy Dragon took in everyone’s reactions, observing their facial expressions and the subtle shifts in their eyes.

Meng Yao was visibly beaming with joy. "Hehe, I knew that brat could do it!"

No one paid attention to Meng Yao’s rambling. Elder Feng finally spoke. "That’s good to hear. Leng Ao, what about the situation inside the Heavenly Tomb?"

The Ghost Saint cleared his throat before continuing. "The Heavenly Tomb is now completely under the control of my Legion, and Su Ping has full command over it. Moving forward, the territory of Beiyuan Province will be expanded by approximately three hundred thousand square kilometers, encompassing what used to be the Heavenly Tomb Forbidden Land!

"After this, the Heavenly Tomb Forbidden Land can serve as our Dragon Country’s premier stronghold for acquiring Undead Series resources and Pet Beasts! At the same time, we can allow a large number of ordinary Beastmasters to explore its outer perimeter."

This announcement delivered a shock even greater than the last! Three hundred thousand square kilometers! That was nearly the size of an entire province, and now it was all being absorbed into Beiyuan Province? Then again, it made sense. Due to Beiyuan Province’s geography, it was sparsely populated. Having vast tracts of land without people was essentially meaningless. However, if the Heavenly Tomb Forbidden Land became a training ground—a future paradise for breeding Undead Series beasts in the Dragon Country—its value would be extraordinary!

Immediately, someone asked, "Ghost Saint, how does the scale of the Heavenly Tomb Forbidden Land compare to the Heroic Spirit Battlefield?"

The Heroic Spirit Battlefield was the Undead Series territory located right next to the Yingling Academy. Everyone turned to look at the Ghost Saint, who nodded affirmatively.

"It surpasses it in every way! There are over five Spirit Saint Level entities within it alone, not to mention the massive number of Undead Series creatures! As for resources, they are simply countless!"

"Excellent, excellent!"

Everyone was incredibly thrilled. Sang Sheng added, "With such a monumental contribution, Su Ping deserves a massive reward!"

The others nodded in agreement. This was indeed a tremendous achievement; even among them, very few could boast of such merits.

However, this wasn’t the end of it. The Ghost Saint nodded and said, "In addition to that, there is one more thing regarding the Heavenly Tomb that needs to be disclosed so that everyone can prepare for the coming revolution!"

A revolution!? Frowns appeared on everyone’s faces once again.

"That’s right. I’m afraid none of you are aware yet," the Ghost Saint said. "During his venture inside, Su Ping uncovered the true mastermind behind the Heavenly Tomb—the very entity that created it.

"It is none other than the Mythical Level Undead entity, the Netherworld God!"

The Netherworld God! The mention of that name, coupled with the term ’Mythical Level,’ plunged the entire room into absolute silence.

Even Saint Yuan of the Chen Family was stunned. He spoke up in sheer disbelief, "Wait, is this old man getting too old and mishearing things? Leng Ao, did you just say Mythical Level?"

Leng Ao cast a glance at the posturing Old Ghost before nodding. "Although it’s hard to believe, the Holy Dragon and I can assure you that the Mythical Level truly exists. Furthermore, Su Ping has already come into contact with it—one could even say they have crossed paths!"

Mythical Level! Those words left everyone in the room gasping for breath. Su Ping had come into contact with it? Crossed paths with it?

At that moment, Legend of the Holy Dragon finally spoke. "There is no need to panic. The revival of a Mythical Level entity is not that simple! Su Ping has made a great contribution this time; not only did he wipe out a quarter of the Netherworld God’s power, but he also foiled Charles’s plans."

The Ghost Saint continued, "Exactly. There are four Heavenly Tombs across Blue Star, each sealing a Death Relic corresponding to the Netherworld God. Among them, the most precious is the Soul Fire, which Charles obtained in the Eagle Country.

"The tomb in our Dragon Nation contained the Sword of Death, representing Power. The one in the Mummy Nation likely holds the Undying Body, while the one in the Lion Nation contains the Crown of Sovereignty.

"Every single tomb harbors a fraction of the Netherworld God’s power. This time, Su Ping eradicated that power, averting a true Undead disaster!

"The reason we are telling you this isn’t to pressure you, but to make you understand what Su Ping has done for our Dragon Nation. It’s also to help you prepare. A new era—an era that will feature the Mythical Level—is rapidly approaching!"

At these words, everyone became weighed down with heavy thoughts.

Mythical Level—what a distant concept it had been. Originally, they stood at the absolute pinnacle of Blue Star. Aside from the Legendary Level powerhouses in various countries, they were the strongest beings in existence. To think that this fabled myth was actually showing signs of a resurgence.

Just then, Old Wolf, who hadn’t said a word until now, suddenly asked, "Leng Ao, how did Su Ping manage to eliminate the Netherworld God’s power?"

Everyone finally snapped out of their daze and looked up at the two men presiding over the meeting.

Legend of the Holy Dragon explained, "There is no harm in telling you. Prior to this, Su Ping had already come into contact with another reviving Mythical Level entity.

"The Power Rule of that Mythical Level entity happens to be diametrically opposed to that of the Netherworld God. It is the fabled Mythical Level entity of the Life Series and Wood Element: the God of Spring.

"It was precisely because of the gifts and assistance from the God of Spring that Su Ping, having deduced the situation within the Heavenly Tomb, was able to catch his opponent completely off guard."

Another Mythical Level entity? More importantly, why on earth hadn’t these ten-thousand-year rare entities sought out powerhouses like them? Why did they keep crossing paths with this little guy instead?

It defied all logic!

However, it was obvious that no one was going to voice any doubts right now. The conference room fell silent once more as everyone busied themselves with digesting this massive bombshell.

Finally, after a full ten minutes had passed, the Wolf Saint spoke up again. "Brother Xuan, where is Su Ping? You must have another reason for calling us all here, right?"

The nature of their relationship was evident from the casual way he addressed him; they clearly knew each other very well.

Legend of the Holy Dragon nodded. "He took the members of the Heavenly Tomb Army to the Jade Dreamland first. He’ll be here shortly. As for the last matter, I’ll tell you all about it once he arrives."

No one else said a word.

And finally, Su Ping—who was currently enjoying the immense privilege of keeping all the Holy Spirit Level Beastmasters of the Dragon Nation, along with Legend of the Holy Dragon, waiting solely for him—made his belated appearance ten minutes later.
