The Pinnacle of Life

“She… What is happening to her?”

Luna and Freya leaned against each other. They were initially holding Neela, but the dragon was in a rather odd condition. Behind her was a large phantom of a Benares Dragon, yet Neela herself floated in mid-air, curled up in a fetal position, it was as if she had turned back into an ancient dragon egg.

“Shush, don’t disturb her. She must be meditating,” Xerxes replied.

On the other hand, Alex hadn’t stopped one bit as Martiny’s wounds weren’t completely healed. The dragon vein was still merging with her body at the time. However, he could sense an ancient aura coming from Martiny’s blood. The sealed mark within her bloodline was activated by inserting the dragon vein.

“An Ancestor Dragon?” Alex was somewhat shocked but figured it somehow made sense in the end.

He had entered the Spiritual Realm of Dragons after all and even saw the Dragon Tomb Mountain himself. Moreover, Martiny was the current head of the Exorcist Dragons. Hence, he knew that the ancient bloodline of the Mayers had actually sealed a contract with Ancestor Dragons, receiving the recognition of those very dragons.

The Mayer family of the Exorcist Dragons were extremely secretive and mysterious. Even Alex couldn’t understand that family, let alone Luna.

Martiny’s wounds were healing rapidly. At first, her speedy recovery was all thanks to Alex’s help, but later on, she could do it on her own. Several symbols surrounded her body, forming a giant golden ball.

After that, it appeared to form a connection to the phantom behind Neela.
