Chapter 719: Chapter 717: Burning Legion Chapter 719: Chapter 717: Burning Legion Amber Calendar Year 152.

Russell awoke from his slumber, having waited in the land of contemplation for over a hundred years, having already sketched out the blueprint for the Amber Dreamland.

The future Amber Dreamland.

Not just a new world, but countless new worlds.

The Amber Central Region is the center of these new worlds, not taking the form of planets appearing in the universe, but instead entrusting themselves to the trunk of the Amber Great Tree, growing and developing along with the tree.

As for the Volcanic Realm and the Snow Mountain Region, they will be nurtured into independent planet worlds.

In the future, these independent planet worlds will, through the Amber Great Tree, provide developmental potential to the Amber Central Region. The Amber Central Region can nurture these independent planet worlds, and can also accept sustenance from them.

“No world holds absolute dominance, which was the reason the previous World Tree was unable to resist being gnawed by maggot creatures.”

“Learning from this painful lesson, we must strengthen the Amber Central Region and nurture absolute military force to guard the Amber Great Tree!”

“This is the plan for enduring prosperity.”

Russell shook his slightly heavy head, pushed open the door of the cryogenic chamber, and then moved his limbs.

The six oddly-shaped cryogenic chambers around him were also successively opened.

Black Oil Two-legged Illusion Dragon Rossay, Sacred Unicorn Polly, Harpy Dragonbeast Hape, Infinite Ouroboros Uroboros, Netherworld Nightmare Beast Senbula, and Big Dream Mo Tepp also awoke from their slumber.

“Russell!”

Seeing Russell, the contract partners were overjoyed and displayed no strangeness, as over a hundred years of slumber to them was merely the span of a nap.

“Let’s go, let’s all head out together,” Russell said with a slight smile.

The next moment, the six contract partners turned into dazzling symbols, branding themselves on Russell’s forehead, forming a complex mark—gold, purple thunderbolts, bluish Gang Wind, yellow rock, somber clouds, and black flames.

But soon.

This complex mark merged into one, transforming into a colorful diamond-shaped seal, only the size of a fingernail, discreetly tucked beneath the locks of hair.

Whoosh!

With a single step, Russell had crossed from the sea of Origin Power beneath the Dreamscape Volcano into the volcano itself.

“Squawk!”

A familiar call was the Dreamscape Ancient Dragon waiting there; it did not need to hibernate, its life merging with the Amber Great Tree, eternally indestructible.

Over the past hundred years, Little Dream Dragon could always enter the land of contemplation created by Russell, and under Russell’s guidance, it continuously shaped the Amber Dreamland towards the planned blueprint with powerful Rule Power.

“Ice Cream,” Russell said with a light smile.

Then he strode over to Little Dream Dragon’s head and sat down upon the throne shaped from scales, rising with Little Dream Dragon from within the Dreamscape Volcano.

Flying out of the Dreamscape Volcano, he then saw the pilgrim staircase at the mouth of the volcano—this was a colossal stairway structure built by the Amber Federation at the entrance of the Dreamscape Volcano where every year, vast numbers of Federation citizens would come here to ascend the steps on a pilgrimage.

At this moment, on the pilgrim staircase, dozens of dragons had already crouched early on the platforms, forming a circle.

On the heads of many dragons, there sat Dragon Knights.

Of course, even more were people clad in strange and exotic garments, standing solemnly and reverently yet filled with excitement on the steps.

These dragons and humans alike, were all awaiting Russell’s awakening.

After more than a hundred years, the earliest citizens of the Amber Federation, aside from the few in cryostasis, were all buried in cemeteries, from the Cabinet to both houses, from nobles to commoners, there were no people left in the Amber Federation that Russell knew.

The few acquaintances that were in cryostasis as part of the plan had yet to awaken—including Russell’s parents and elder brother.

“Roar!”

Without a sound, Dreamscape Ancient Dragon’s dragon roar detonated in everyone’s hearts, proclaiming the arrival of a god.

“Roar!”

“Huff!”

“Howl!”

“Aang-aang!”

The dragons encircling the platform rapidly responded to Little Dream Dragon’s roar, at once the dragon roars echoed through heaven and earth.

After waiting for the dragon roars to subside, the Dragon Knights, as well as all the high-ranking members of the Federation on the steps, bowed in unison to Russell seated atop Little Dream Dragon’s head.

“Your Majesty Russell!”

Kneeling had long been abolished by the Amber Federation, commoners only needed to bow when they met nobles, and nobles and high-ranking officials simply bowed when they met Russell. However, the address to Russell still retained a lofty respect.

“Dispense with the formalities.” Russell raised his hand, replying indifferently.

Glancing around at all the unfamiliar faces, he felt a lack of interest and simply said calmly, “Now that we have met, you may all leave. Forget about the welcome ceremony, act as if I do not exist.”

“Your Majesty Russell!” The leader of the Dragon Knights, spoke respectfully, “I am the newly appointed Chief of the Federation, Tobyk…”

“No need for more words, go about your duties. I will take a look around and naturally come to the Cabinet to find you later.”

Russell waved his hand.

And then, riding the Little Dream Dragon, he disappeared into thin air, leaving the high-ranking members of the Amber Federation looking at each other in confusion.

“Chief Tobyk, the banquet has been prepared, and the live broadcast for the news is arranged. Everyone in the Federation, from top to bottom, wishes to catch a glimpse of Russell, Your Majesty,” said a Cabinet Minister.

Chief Tobyk shook his head, “Call it off.”

“But… wouldn’t that disappoint the people of the Federation?”

“What can we do about that? This is His Majesty Russell, His Majesty Russell’s words are the will of a Divine Spirit,” Chief Tobyk said, “Regardless, at least we have heard the will of God.”

He turned back to look at everyone, “Disperse, go about your usual work, and await His Majesty Russell’s visit for guidance at any time.”

The people had no choice but to leave, without any complaint. Over the past hundred years or so, the Amber Federation’s technology and magic power had made leaps and bounds, and its civilization had grown so prosperous that it far surpassed the era of the Dragon Sleep Continent, even venturing out of the planet into the universe.

But Russell was the embodiment of rules, the master of the Amber Dreamland, an unquestionable Divine Spirit.

No matter how strong a mortal becomes, they cannot challenge the authority of a divine spirit.

Moreover, the Dreamscape Ancient Dragon spends most of its time sleeping on the Amber Great Tree, and when in the mood, it would travel around, every outing serving as a show of might to the entire Amber Federation, reminding humans constantly that it, along with its rider Russell, were the masters of the world.

And moreover.

The stronger the Amber Federation became, the stronger the benefits reaped by the Dreamscape Ancient Dragon would be; the entire Amber Federation was essentially working for the Little Dream Dragon.

…

Russell, along with the Little Dream Dragon, teleported to the Shadowflame Volcanic Realm.

Without alerting anyone, he simply called out the name Shadowflame within the Shadowflame Elemental Volcano.

The next moment.

A small flame rose from the magma, and then the flame transformed into a Little Fire Dragon, landing on Russell’s shoulder.

“Russell, you have finally awakened,” the Little Fire Dragon spoke in a bubbling, magmatic dragon language.

“Mhm, the Land of Starlight Eternal is nearing, and I need to come out to preside over the anchoring plan to conquer this old world,” Russell said with a smile, “But before that, I want to meet some old friends and wander around a bit.”

“Saiban, Darimu, Elden, aren’t they often able to enter dreams and go to the realm of contemplation?” said the Little Fire Dragon.

Just like the Dreamscape Ancient Dragon can enter the realm of contemplation.

The Flame Ancient Giant Dragon, the Ancient Dragon of Freedom, and the Revenge Ancient Dragon, along with the extraction of Origin Power from the Dragon Sleep Continent, have merged into the Amber Dreamland, and through the Rule Power, can enter the realm of contemplation.

Furthermore.

The former Duke Rose, Elden Cyclowall, after comprehending the Frost Star Annihilation and witnessing the gradual desolation of the Dragon Sleep Continent, successfully returned to ancient times, mastering the Rule Power of the earth, and together with the Solid Wall Giant Dragon, ascended to become the Ancient Earth Dragon.

His authorities are the earth, shattering, and silence.

With Russell’s experience as a precedent, Elden prepared an Origin Weapon early on when they ascended, as an anchor to carry the rule of the earth.

Thus avoiding falling into the puppetry of rules.

Since then, there have been five Ancient Dragons in the Amber Dreamland, five rules successfully integrated with the Amber Dreamland, laying a solid foundation for it—more Ancient Dragons will be born in the future, further solidifying that foundation.

Creating an indestructible new world to fend off any possible invasion by maggot monsters.

“Although we often meet in the realm of contemplation, it is not a real meeting after all, and this time I have had an epiphany. I plan to give Darimu a hand, to help him escape from the abyss of revenge,” Russell said.

After a pause.

He looked up at the sky above the volcano crater, “Land of Starlight Eternal is also an extraordinary world, the great battle is inevitable. Only if Darimu is liberated can he play a bigger role… In the past Frost Star had the Eternal Seven Elders, so we can also form an Amber Quintet!”

The Little Fire Dragon hopped around excitedly, “Shadowflame does not like the name Amber Quintet; it feels unlucky… Eternal Seven Elders, Five New, Three Snow, they have all become food in our mouths!”

“Hmm, don’t like it?” Russell laughed heartily and drew the Burning Sword from his waist, “When landing on the Land of Starlight Eternal, mining for Origin Power, we still need a name… otherwise, let’s call ourselves… the Burning Legion?”
