As they followed the 5th stage dragon into the tribe's interior, the group walked in silence for most of the way, observing the surroundings of the beautiful area they were flying over.",

The Dragon Tribe's territory is protected by rugged mountains and dense forests. The mountains, with their snow-capped peaks and caves filled with magical minerals, are home to the loneliest dragons.

Descending from the heights, the forests form a dense canopy and are inhabited by magical creatures, with paths known only to dragons.

At the heart of this region is a valley where crystal-clear rivers feed tranquil lakes and the vegetation is lush. This valley is the center of dragon society.

The atmosphere, charged with magical energy, with pure air fragrant with pine and wild herbs, caught the attention of the three travelers.

After seeing many beautiful sights, smaller and larger dragons, beings resting or going about their daily business, the group spotted the valley where most of the dragons in this area were.

A dragon city was not like a human city. There were no buildings or special structures. In some corners, the dragons simply lay down and called those places their homes. In others, like a hillside within sight of the group, the elders stood at the highest point while the young dragons stayed at lower levels to watch them talk.

But most of the dragons' activities took place outside their city. There they simply lived, slept, and guarded their treasures.

But there was everything in this dragon city. For example, in a busy corner of the city, some dragons were lying in front of all kinds of things, like the products of a fair. Anyone interested in these resources could stop by and make an offer. If accepted, a deal would be made.

Trade, exchange of services, and other things common in human realms also existed in the Dragon Tribe!

And just as it would be in a human city when strange specialists arrived in the area, when the group landed there, the three who accompanied the 5th stage dragon soon attracted the attention of the dragons in the area.

The 5th stage dragon continued to lead them, passing through the center of the city to the northern outskirts, where the main dragons of the tribe rested.

Considering the size of each dragon and the fact that there were a few hundred of them in this city, it wasn't such a quick trip at the speed the four of them were moving.

After nearly ten minutes of traveling within this city, they would discover the richest area, where several mountains of scales stood motionless here and there, separated by a few kilometers.

'Nine Archmages!' Victor thought as he realized the number of high-level dragons in this area, more than half of them sleeping.

But they weren't just early 6th stage dragons!

One of these creatures was a terrifying dragon with Advanced Archmage cultivation!

'We didn't stand a chance against a dragon soul fragment with Beginner Archmage strength... Imagine against such a creature?' Vicente clenched his fists at the sight of the moving mountain, his eyes wide in its direction.

Aside from that creature, which was even bigger than the projection they had been challenged against, there were two Intermediate Archmages dragons and the rest were Beginner Archmages.

One of the Intermediate Archmages stood next to the presumed leader or elder of the tribe, whom the 5th stage dragon led them to.

"First Elder, this group passed through the challenge south of our border. I brought them here as soon as they recovered." The creature was just as quick as before, saying what he had to say and then leaving.

Left behind, Vicente and the others didn't know what to do or what their situation was.

But whatever the significance of this encounter, they couldn't stand against these powerful beings.

Elmo used one of his hands to push Vicente forward, letting the boy speak for him this time. 'You have their amulet. You must represent us.'

Vicente made a common greeting gesture from the continent, joined his two hands, and bowed his head. "Elders of the Dragon Tribe, those to my right and left are Elmo and Victor, and I am Vicente Fuller.

We came to your tribe because the vampires were blocking the paths to the Majestic Treefrog Grove. The side they were guarding the least was the side of your tribe, so we took our chances with their traps and their challenge."

The Intermediate Archmage looked into the little human's eyes and said. "We know that. We've been waiting for you."

"That..." Vicente hesitated as he looked at Elmo and Victor.

But neither of them could understand what was going on, so they just shook their heads in denial.

"Vicente Fuller, have you talked to Ancestor Myndentan?"

Vicente looked down at his Dragon Amulet necklace and nodded. "Yes, he activated the powers of the amulet and said that one day we'll meet again."

The two dragons looked at each other while Vicente asked, "Is the elder in the tribe? I'd like to pay him my respects. He left so quickly that I didn't have a chance."

The Great Dragon of Advanced Archmage cultivation closed his eyes and sighed. "He is no longer in the tribe or anywhere on the continent."

"Don't tell me that..."

"Ancestor Myndentan has long since left the Polaris Realm by advancing to the 7th stage," the Intermediate Archmage in front of them said as he thought of the ancestor who had left when he was still a junior in the tribe.

The First Elder opened his eyes and got right to the point. "Vicente Fuller, as someone predestined to leave the continent and join our ancestor on the Upper Continent, you are welcome in my tribe to live and enjoy our territory as you wish.

You are searching for your final pentagrams for your second magical form. We will help you find them. In the meantime, don't worry about your current mission. Just concentrate on learning what we have to teach you."

Elmo and Victor, as well as Vicente, heard the words of the strongest dragon of the tribe without understanding what was going on, not expecting the dragons to be so cooperative with them after invading this territory!

'What is going on here?' All three of them asked the same question.
