Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 893, One Hundred Thousand Metres Underground

Translator: Silavin

There was nothing unusual about this place. It was still pitch-black, be it the earth, the trees or some Higher Level Monsters. However, being here gave one an unsettling feeling that made one’s hair stand on end.

“This is the place?” Jin Zhan surveyed their surroundings. “I can’t see anything special about it.”

Lu Fan nodded. “En. Ancient Gods generally conceal their auras very well. Firstly, to prevent people of the current era from finding them, and secondly, to guard against other awakened Ancient Gods tracking them down. For Ancient Gods, the best supplement is themselves. I once encountered an Ancient God who, despite having a low degree of awakening, dared to operate openly. His purpose was to hunt Giant Dragons or other Ancient Gods to devour.”

“But, that Ancient God took an enormous risk by doing that. It risked getting killed by me, for instance. Still, if it had actually found an Ancient God with a lower level of awakening than itself and devoured them, his degree of awakening would have advanced ahead of others, giving him an advantage in the Ancient Gods Struggle For Supremacy.”

Upon hearing this, Jin Zhan immediately knew which Ancient God Lu Fan was referring to.

“You’re talking about that Ancient God who attacked Jianghai City, aren’t you?” Jin Zhan asked. “I heard its Level was only around 110 at the time, which is indeed not very high.”

Lu Fan smiled and nodded. “That’s right. That’s the one.”

“What a shame. If only all Ancient Gods could be as ‘cooperative’ as that one was. If they all came out to cause trouble at Level 110 or so, you, me, Senior Tu, and Senior Jin could split up and quickly kill all these incomplete awakened Ancient Gods.” Jin Zhan also smiled and shook his head. “But how could all these Ancient Gods be that foolish? If they were, the Ancient Gods wouldn’t have managed to destroy so many eras in succession.”

“Indeed…” Lu Fan replied.

Their conversation left Andrei completely bewildered.

Andrei scratched his head. “What are you talking about? What Ancient Gods Struggle For Supremacy? What Ancient God attacked Jianghai City?”

Lu Fan smiled. “These are things that happened in Dragon Country. It’s normal that you are not aware of them. Simply put, Dragon Country previously experienced an Ancient God attacking a city, but because that Ancient God was still too weak, it got killed.”

“Oh…” Andrei nodded half-understanding, not asking further questions.

After all, these were Dragon Country matters. He was from Feather Country and could not possibly know everything.

As for the so-called ‘Ancient Gods Struggle For Supremacy,’ Lu Fan did not explain and Andrei did not ask again.

After their casual conversation concluded, Lu Fan began activating his Ancient God Power, carefully sensing the Darkness Ancient God’s location.

Spiritual threads continuously extended outward, spreading from Lu Fan as the centre. Whether in the sky, underground, or elsewhere in the Dark Land, Lu Fan’s spiritual threads explored everywhere, ensuring the Darkness Ancient God had nowhere to hide.

An Ancient God’s aura faintly appeared and disappeared in the surroundings, but it definitely existed, letting Lu Fan know the Devouring Dragon King had not lied. An Ancient God truly existed here.

However, this Ancient God’s hiding place was truly concealed. Lu Fan’s spiritual threads searched for a long time without finding it.

As the spiritual threads continued extending, Lu Fan suddenly opened both eyes.

Jin Zhan immediately asked, “How is it? Did you find it?”

Lu Fan smiled slightly and nodded. “Found it.”

With that, he pointed straight down beneath everyone’s feet. “Right below us, approximately one hundred thousand metres deep.”

“One hundred thousand metres!?” Jin Zhan clicked his tongue in amazement. “This Ancient God certainly hid deep…”

“Yeah,” Lu Fan also sighed. “But no matter how deep it hides, it’s too close to me right now. At this distance, it has absolutely nowhere to escape.”

Andrei said, “Then how do we dig it out? This is one hundred thousand metres deep. Breaking through that depth won’t be easy…”

“If we’re talking about digging… that would indeed be difficult.” Lu Fan thought for a moment. “But I should be able to pass through directly.”

Andrei suddenly recalled that during the National Trial Secret Realm, Lu Fan had entered the Dark Castle alone to solo the Nine Hell Demons.

At that time, Lu Fan had used a Skill to directly open a Transport Array, teleporting into the Dark Castle that no one else could enter.

“I know. You’re going to use that Skill, right?” Andrei said excitedly.

Lu Fan nodded. “Yeah, Starry Space Passage. My Starry Space Passage Skill has reached Max Level. Although this is the first time attempting to traverse a distance of one hundred thousand metres, I think if I activate this Skill at full power, it shouldn’t be impossible.”

With that, Lu Fan leapt down from his Divine Bone Clone, landed on the ground, then slapped his palm against the earth, drawing a Summoning Array.

“Ang!” With a clear Dragon Roar, Xing Chen emerged from the Summoning Array.

Pet Dragon King looked far superior to a counterfeit like the Divine Bone Clone.

As soon as Xing Chen appeared in her brilliant starlight, Jin Zhan and Andrei couldn’t help but exclaim simultaneously. Truly worthy of being from the Dragon Race, it was too magnificent!

After summoning Xing Chen, Lu Fan used their spiritual connection to set Coordinates for her. Then, he commanded Xing Chen to open a Starry Space Passage to these Coordinates.

Xing Chen remained as arrogant as ever, rolling her eyes at Lu Fan with a completely disdainful expression.

This made the corner of Lu Fan’s mouth twitch. He wondered why, after raising this rebellious Dragon for so long, her attitude towards him had not improved at all.

Although she looked down on Lu Fan, Xing Chen did not slack off. She still opened a Starry Space Passage Transport Array.

Inside the Transport Array, starlight shone brilliantly.

Lu Fan directly mounted Xing Chen and took the lead charging in.

Seeing this, Jin Zhan showed no hesitation and followed Lu Fan inside.

As for Andrei, he deeply understood how extremely dangerous Ancient Gods were. With his own strength, entering would most likely mean more misfortune than fortune.

He shouted towards the Starry Space Passage Transport Array at Lu Fan, “Brother, should I still go in? If not, I’ll just wait here for you—ah!”

With a scream, the Divine Bone Clone directly carried him into the Transport Array, not giving him any chance to stay guard at the entrance.

After experiencing the pulling sensation of space, all three passed through the Transport Array and arrived in the underground world.

Upon arriving, everyone felt deeply astonished.

Because at this moment, this place resembled another world, with profound darkness all around.

Even with Jin Zhan’s Golden Crow as the ‘lamp’, they could not see where the boundaries of this massive space were.

Conservatively estimated, this was a space at least ten metres in diameter, like being inside a massive cocoon underground.
