"Senior Titus, please follow me."
Aurora groaned softly, and then took out a teleportation rune from the gap in the scales.
As the runes flickered, the surrounding space gradually distorted, and a portal large enough for the dragon to pass appeared in the cave.
Feeling this strange spatial fluctuation, Cassius' golden eyes flickered and he directly saw through the destination of the portal.
Demiplane.
It is similar to all ordinary planes, but it only has a measurable size and limited access to the alien space.
Other planes can theoretically be infinite in size, but demiplanes have limits, and may even be only a few hundred feet in size.
Demiplanes may exist for many reasons. They can be created by arcane or divine magic, or they can be created by the will of a powerful god or other force. They can also exist naturally, such as the folding of a cosmic system formed from the constriction of a universe, or an infant universe that is growing in energy.
Recalling the knowledge he had learned previously, Cassius stared at the space passage and asked softly:
"This is...a demiplane?"
Aurora replied quite contentedly: "Yes, our Roz has his own demiplane called 'Eternal Order Realm'.
It is the common home of the skin-carving dragons and the best place for us to practice. ”
"Eternal Sequence Realm, it sounds pretty good." Cassius felt the vague spatial coordinates and read out the name again.
"Of course, Senior Titus, you will know when you go in. I'm afraid it's better than you imagine."
Two golden dragons, one large and one small, tightened their wings and entered the portal. However, for Cassius, who was more than thirty meters long, he had to make extra efforts to squeeze in.
They were shuttled through the passage in the etheric plane, and in just a few minutes, Cassius had completely mastered the method to the "Eternal Sequence Realm".
A demiplane is almost always anchored somewhere on another prime plane.
Usually this larger plane is the Material Plane, but portals to the demiplane can be found on the Astral Plane, the Ethereal Plane, and any inner and outer plane.
Demiplanes have some access restrictions. First, they can only be entered from a specific point on the corresponding larger plane. Some demiplanes are connected to multiple planes, so each plane to which they are connected has a specific point to which it is connected.
These demiplanes often serve as gateways between disconnected planes, or places where different universes come into contact.
The Eternal Sequence Realm is a special place that connects the main material plane and the Heavenly Mountain. In the ether channel, he can see several astral vascular connections to the outer plane.
"Shua——"
Cassius felt a flash of white light, his eyes suddenly opened up, and the scene took on a new look, suddenly changing from black and white to color.
He finally left the etheric channel and came to the so-called "Eternal Order Realm", the home of the Skin-Carving Dragons.
"This demiplane"
Cassius looked around and saw rolling mountains, gurgling streams, and vast and open highlands.
This turned out to be a huge floating island hundreds of miles in diameter, shrouded in some mysterious, pale golden force field, and outside the island, there was nothingness.
The sun hangs high in the sky, shining on the earth and spreading its brilliance.
Cassius could tell at a glance that this was not the real sun, but a projection of the sun on the main material plane, and everything here.
——Whether it is flowers, grass, soil, or flowing water, they all operate according to the rules of the main material plane, with some slight differences.
For example, under the influence of that mysterious force field, the operation of the magic network becomes more regular, and the magic reaction is particularly peaceful, making it difficult to release highly destructive spells.
Under the sunshine, the vegetation here is lush and green, and kind and beautiful creatures such as pegasus, forest deer, and unicorns can be seen everywhere.
In this demiplane, the body surface of every creature seems to be covered with a hazy halo.
The wind blows through the dense forest, making a slight rustling sound, and the water jingles, forming a concerto that gives people peace and calm.
And deep in the mountains, built on the mountains surrounded by mountains and forests, is a majestic monastery built of pure white stone, with its walls covered with exquisite and mysterious patterns carved on it.
Gazing at the exceptionally coordinated lines, even Cassius, who was outside the world, could feel peaceful.
It was as if a warm breeze blew through his mind, easily sweeping away the mixed thoughts of killing and bloodshed.
Cassius couldn't help feeling sincerely in his heart: "It's a really nice place. It's worthy of being a metal dragon. It's really rich."
Aurora looked at the white palace in the distance, and introduced calmly but with pride: "Senior Titus, we are here.
This is the Eternal Order Realm, a place of soul peace, a monastery seeking the highest order, and a gathering place for skin-carving dragons. ”
She suddenly paused, blinked her eyes, and said mysteriously: "By the way, what do you think is the biggest feature of our Roz?"
"What?"
Before Aurora could answer, the sound of air fanning came from the white palace in the distance, and Cassius followed the sound.
Under his rather surprised gaze, several golden dragons soared into the sky, waving their wavy wings lightly and gracefully.
Under the sunlight, the scales of the golden dragons shone brightly, as if covered with a sacred halo.
Aurora then smiled and replied: "You are right, Senior Titus, the members of Eternal Order Roz are all of our same race.
The most noble and elegant dragon, His Majesty Bahamut's favorite - the golden dragon. ”
Seeing this young golden dragon praising his race so much, Cassius couldn't help but laugh secretly, but he didn't find it strange.
Golden dragons never hide their pride. From the moment they were created, they pride themselves on being the eldest son of Bahamut, a natural leader among metal dragons, and a symbol of kindness and justice.
——And this is often the case, even though other metal dragons are not willing to admit it.
Cassius pretended to be amazed: "Are all the skin-carving dragons in the Eternal Order Realm golden dragons?"
Aurora spread her wings and involuntarily raised her chest: "Yes, Lord Ferdinand said this when he created this demiplane -
Unlike silver dragons who are naive and lazy, bronze dragons who are curious and strange, and brass dragons who are noisy and annoying, our golden dragons are calm and calm, and are natural skin carvers.
Only the golden dragon can become the best skin-carving dragon and use its inherited power to maintain justice and order in the world. ”
As for dragons other than metal dragons, five-color dragons, gem dragons, half-dragons and the like, Ferdinand didn't even bother to mention them.
After all, in the eyes of the golden dragon, these dragons are mixed, either dirty and evil, or of inferior blood, and cannot be compared with them at all.
It is indeed a golden dragon.
Cassius sighed in his heart, and then smiled: "That's true, Aurora, your Eternal Order Realm really gave me a big surprise."
"Ouch--" The golden dragons from a distance flew in one after another, letting out brisk roars.
Apparently, they also discovered the huge golden dragon more than thirty meters long that appeared next to Aurora, and were happy that another noble ancient golden dragon appeared in Loz.
The leading adult golden dragon flew not far in front of Cassius. His body was also covered with exquisite runes, which was more complicated than Aurora's body.
"Aurora, it's great that you came back so quickly and brought this guest back."
"Of course, Uncle Erhenan and Senior Titus have agreed to join the Eternal Order Realm."
The golden dragon known as "Elhenan" looked at Cassius, lowered his head respectfully, bent his forelimbs and knees, tightened his wings, and strictly followed the etiquette of the golden dragon clan.
"Good day, you must be the rumored 'Dragon of Dawn'. You are indeed a powerful and noble senior."
Then, Erhenan raised his head, the corners of his mouth raised, his gills fluttering, and a smile appeared on that majestic dragon face:
Welcome to Eternal Order Roz, Senior Titus. ”
Cassius nodded in greeting, and then said: "I am indeed willing to become a member of the Skincarving Dragon, but recently I have to help the Alpine Kingdom eliminate the threat of the orcs, so I may not stay in the Eternal Order forever."
< br>
Elhenan sighed: "Senior Titus, you really have a heart for justice, and you are worthy of being called the 'Dragon of Dawn' by mortals.
There is no problem at all. Our Eternal Order Realm was originally built to inherit the power of our ancestors and better safeguard justice.
Elhenan turned his head and pointed to the white palace in the distance: "In this case, let Aurora take you to visit our monastery first."
"Okay."
Aurora said again in a brisk tone: "Senior Titus, please come with me."
It can only be said that this half-plane is indeed tailor-made. Flying in the Eternal Order Realm with the unique wave motion of the golden dragon, you will feel extremely light, as if every ray of wind is lifting your wings.
At the same time, the golden dragons flew extremely fast, and it didn't take long before they arrived at the gate of the white monastery.
"Boom——
The door slowly opened, and what came into view was a tall and spacious corridor that was large enough for the ancient dragon to pass through. The pillars on both sides were carved with complex patterns.
On the walls on the left and right sides of the corridor and at the top, there are brightly colored and extremely exquisite murals, with lifelike dragons on them.
The original dragon longed to break away from dragon instincts and pursue pure order, so he tried to carve runes on the surface of his scales.
——This is the origin of skin carving.
Aurora introduced: "I believe you also know that Carved Skin is a special organization composed of dragons and half-dragons.
Our names come from the marks carved on our scales that confer incredible mystical protection, and the Skincarved Dragons are disciplined beings dedicated to personal perfection and mystical transcendence. ”
The young golden dragon pointed to the mural: "Most skin-carved dragons are true dragons, because drakes, land dragons, wyverns, and other draconic creatures lack the thick and heavy scales necessary to obtain carvings.
Of course, more importantly - they lack the wisdom and will required to become a skin-carving dragon.
However, the order pursued by some skin-carving dragons is not necessarily pure. In the past thousand years, there have also been dirty evil dragons such as blue dragons and green dragons who despicably steal the power of carvings and try to build their own evil order. ”
Speaking of this, Aurora's face showed disgust involuntarily, and soon she added with a smile:
"But a guy like the red dragon, who is full of muscles and magma, will never be qualified to become a skin carver."
Red dragon jokes are rare jokes that the more rigid and serious Golden Dragon likes to tell.
Cassius' lips twitched slightly, secretly thinking that your rules will soon be broken by a red dragon disguised as a golden dragon.
However, he still said calmly on the surface: "Of course, chaotic and evil guys like Red Dragon will never understand the true meaning of order."
Aurora led Cassius to the end of the corridor and entered the more spacious hall, which was hundreds of meters high. She saw that it was exceptionally clean and orderly, and several golden dragons appeared in it.
They sat on their respective platforms, either meditating with their eyes closed, or using special cone-shaped crystals to carve on their scales, immersed in their respective practices.
Indeed, the practice of these skin-carving dragons is quite similar to that of warrior monks, and they also possess tempered bodies, steely wills and some kind of supernatural power.
There was silence in the hall, except for the distant bell ringing from time to time.
Cassius raised his head. At the top of the hall, there was a huge disk with a diameter of nearly a hundred meters, and its surface was engraved with complex patterns.
In the center of the disk is a dull and lusterless silver scale, which is also engraved with mysterious runes.
What surprised Cassius even more was that the scales exuded some powerful pressure that made him want to worship them.
And after seeing the runes on the discs and scales, he felt a sense of perfect order.
It seemed to symbolize the most concrete fairness and order, and represented the supreme authority. Even his soul was about to be washed and purified.
In an instant, Cassius even had the urge to change back to his original form. Fortunately, he suppressed it and did not release his "Incarnation Ancient Dragon".
He couldn't help but said in surprise: "This is."
However, Aurora beside her was looking at the disk quietly, having entered meditation unknowingly, and did not even hear the senior's words.
Suddenly, a calm, unadulterated female voice came from above.
"These are the scales shed by His Majesty Landis, the dragon's god of balance and justice.
Thousands of years ago, Ferdinand used this scale as the core to create this demiplane, which is also known as the 'Eternal Order Realm'. ”
Cassius raised his head and saw a huge golden dragon, also thirty meters long, flapping its broad wings and slowly descending from the top of the monastery.
Those golden pupils were calm and calm, looking indifferently at the many golden dragons beneath them, as well as Cassius who was mixed in the queue of golden dragons.
Aurora also woke up suddenly. She also raised her head and said with surprise and respect: "Teacher Beatrice!"
As if she was afraid that the new senior next to her would be confused, Aurora quickly introduced: "This is Teacher Beatrice, the daughter of the ancient golden dragon Fernando, and an elder of the Eternal Order Realm.
At the same time, she is also the ‘granter’ within Loz, and our first runes were carved by her.
Therefore, almost all the people of the same race in Yongxu respectfully call her - teacher. ”
But this time, the ancient golden dragon known as "Beatrice" looked at Cassius with a scrutinizing gaze.
Looking at each other, Gu Jinlong said meaningfully: "Good day, you must be the 'Dragon of Dawn' Titus. The Eternal Order Realm welcomes anyone of the same race who pursues order to join.
But why... I see the fog of concealment from you. "(End of Chapter)
