An Encyclopedia of First-Class Water-Elemental Ultimate Spells...

Not only did the tiny, little book repository contain high-grade Dragon-Language Magic of all elements, but it even housed ultimate-grade spells. There were even thousands upon thousands of first-class spells.

It was no exaggeration to say that all the powerful spells that had ever appeared in history could all be found here. The fruits of intellectual labor of innumerable predecessors and experts from the Fire Dragon Kingdom over more than 20,000 years were all here.

“No wonder they kept the place hidden in such a secretive place.” This was a huge eye-opener for Meng Lei. He remarked, “Every spell here is worth a fortune. Even losing just one would be a terribly great loss.”

“Talents emerge from every generation in this world, and each of them excels in their own domain for years to come, indeed.”

Ol’ Amos was filled with emotion as he marveled. “Just the number of water-elemental and fire-elemental first-class spells that I’ve never seen before already come up to as many as 1,907 types and 2,348 types, respectively. Looks like the development of magic has never once stopped during the last 20,000 years.”

“As long as magic continues to be passed down, improvements in magic will never cease.” A smiling Meng Lei shook his head and said, “Every generation has its own geniuses. This is inevitable.”

“You’re right.” Ol’ Amos nodded lightly. Then, he said, “Hurry and look for the Titan Holy Thunder. I’m very curious as to what kind of secrets there are in it.”

“Alright, Ol’ President.”

Meng Lei quickly began his search. After a while, he found a book titled The Secrets of The Thunder Titans: A True Breakdown of The Titan Holy Thunder in a corner—the author’s name was exactly President Fred!

“Found it!”

Full of anticipation, Meng Lei began to flip through the book. Ol’ Amos also leaned over. However, they had only read the foreword when both of them broke into frowns.

“The Titan Holy Thunder is a thunder technique exclusive to the Thunder Titans. Its might is several dozen times, even hundreds of times, that of ordinary thunder techniques. It could be said to be the strongest thunder technique, the king of all types of thunder, and the most supreme of the thunder element.

“...However, there are very stringent requirements to casting Titan Holy Thunder. The spellcaster needs to possess the Thunder Titan bloodline and use their bloodline as a foundation before they can invoke the powerful Titan Holy Thunder.”

“Needs to possess the Thunder Titan bloodline?”

Meng Lei was instantly rendered speechless. “In that case, doesn’t that mean that without the Thunder Titan bloodline, it’s impossible for one to master the Titan Holy Thunder?”

“Isn’t the current academy president a member of the royalty? Why is he able to master the Titan Holy Thunder?” Ol’ Amos’ brows drew together, “Could it be that he has Thunder Titan blood in him?”

A jolt went through Meng Lei, and his eyes hurriedly skimmed further down the page. As expected, the related description entered his vision.

As it turned out, President Fred was actually a rare double bloodline-holder. Not only did he have Fire Dragon blood in him, but he also had Thunder Titan blood in him at the same time.

“Double bloodline?”

Meng Lei couldn’t help but frown. “Since he has both Fire Dragon bloodline and Thunder Titan bloodline, is President Fred a Dragon Person or a Demigiant? He can actually become the academy president despite such conditions?”

“There’s no harm about that, though. Just because someone possesses other races’ bloodlines doesn’t mean that they are outsiders. They cannot be generalized like that.”

Ol’ Amos went on. “After all, Heaven’s Vault Continent has existed for many years. It has experienced multiple eras, and racial mergers have taken place several times. In fact, invasions from foreign parties have even broken out before. After assimilation over the long course of history, how can races that are truly pure-blooded still exist?”

Meng Lei was stunned by his words.

“Even pure-blood Colossal Dragons, pure-blood Titans, and the Fairy royalty cannot guarantee that their bodies do not contain even a hint of blood from other races, let alone humans.

“The humans are the weakest race, and over thousands upon thousands of years, they’ve always been appendages to various stronger races. Therefore, their blood is the most heterogeneous bloodline among all the races.

“It can be said that the depths of every human’s blood contains many different hidden bloodlines, such as the Dragons’, the Titans’, the Beast People’s... It’s just that they are too diluted and cannot be awakened, that’s all.”

Ol’ Amos sighed and said, “The current president is a Dragon Person, so it’s not that hard to understand why he has Titan blood in him.”

Meng Lei was silent in response, but following that, he began to nod slowly.

The line of reasoning was actually very easy to understand.

Pure-blood races? How could they possibly exist? As long as one existed in this world, they wouldn’t be able to guarantee that their bloodline was absolutely pure.

Just like how a basin of pure, clean water would eventually be polluted by all sorts of impurities when placed under the sky—there was no way of avoiding this at all.

This was what assimilation was, the assimilation of races!

“It’s just like how there’s Golden Gods-Slaying Ant blood in your body. It’s very likely that there are also other bloodlines in your body. I won’t be surprised in the least even if you awaken the Titan bloodline someday.”

Ol’ Amos shook his head lightly and continued. “That’s why you cannot treat the current academy president—who has Thunder Titan blood in him—like an outsider or an enemy just because he has awakened the Titan bloodline.

“In truth, in the Fire Dragon Kingdom and even the whole of the Dragon God Empire, there exist a fair number of people that own special bloodlines in them, among which, there is no shortage of Demigiants, Demi-Beast People, and Demi-Fairies.

“Although people like them hold bloodlines of other races, they possess great strength and are able to become part of the nobility and hold high-ranking positions all the same.”

“I see.”

Meng Lei nodded slowly. Then, he sighed emotionally and said, “Since he has Fire Dragon blood in him and has even awakened his Titan bloodline, President Fred likely has terrifying strength.”

Ol’ Amos replied with a light nod, “There’s no doubt about that. Otherwise, do you think that the title of number one in thunder techniques in the Fire Dragon Kingdom is a joke?”

Then, he casually closed the A True Breakdown of The Titan Holy Thunder book and said, “There’s no need for you to continue reading this anymore. You’re not fated with the Titan Holy Thunder, so you’d better just properly study Dragon-Language Magic instead.”

“Am I not fated with it...”

An unusual look flashed across the depths of Meng Lei’s eyes. Then, he placed the book back where he had found it.

For the rest of the time, Meng Lei stayed on the library’s top floor and seriously studied Dragon-Language Magic spells of three elements. His spiritual power had become very strong by now, so he had encyclopedic knowledge and a retentive memory, enabling him to remember everything he saw.

He needed to read a ninth-grade Dragon-Language Magic spell only a few times to be able to copy it slavishly and cast it successfully.

Difficulty level?

The concept didn’t even exist!

Time always passed awfully quickly when one got busy. Before he knew it, a day had gone by just like that. Close to dinnertime, Meng Lei received a round of urging from Fatty Hart.

“Old bro, we’re already at Juxian Restaurant. You’re the only one left now. When will you be reaching?”

“You’re already there? It’s still so early in the day!”

It was then that Meng Lei suddenly realized to his astonishment that it was already dinnertime.

“Damn! I was too engrossed in reading!” Meng Lei smacked his forehead and hurriedly said, “Fatty, entertain the guests for me first. I’m coming right over!”

“Don’t worry, leave it to me.” Then, Fatty Hart added with a laugh, “You’d better hurry, though. The ones that have come are very busy people, so time is of the essence for them!”

“Alright!”

...

By the time Meng Lei hurried over to Juxian Restaurant, half an hour had already passed. Fatty Hart was in the midst of entertaining the guests when he reached the private dining room.

“Old bro! You’re finally here!”

Fatty Hart quickly greeted Meng Lei and led him inside. Then, with a smile, he made the introductions. “Everyone, let me do the introductions. This is Meng Lei, the strongest genius in all of our Fire Dragon Magic Academy’s history, as well as the seller today.”

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Everyone’s gazes fell on Meng Lei at the same time with looks of curiosity, blazing passion, and anticipation in their eyes.

They had heard of Meng Lei’s great repute, of course. The North River Pass battle, in particular, had even allowed his name to resound among the kingdom’s upper-class.

Who didn’t know that Meng Lei had driven back the ant tide all by himself?

Who didn’t know that Meng Lei had hundreds of thousands of magic cores in his possession?

As businessmen, what they cared about the most was still those hundreds of thousands of magic cores, of course. This was a huge transaction amounting to hundreds of millions, or even billions of gold coins, after all. Who wouldn’t be filled with fervency toward it?

“Old bro, the ones seated here are the representatives and people in charge of business dealings in the capital from the three largest trade associations in the kingdom and 13 other magic core acquisition companies.”

“Sorry to keep everyone waiting!”
