Supreme BeastTamer: I Can Copy and Upgrade Skills 10x!-Chapter 490: The Dragon Realm

"The air here feels different."

This was the first thing Nox noticed as soon as they crossed the dark sea. The air felt heavy, as if gravity had become more intense.

What stood out even more was the mana! Nox felt boundless mana in the air. The mana in the human continent was very limited, but here, in this continent, he could easily sense mana in the air itself, which meant it was much purer and denser.

Nox’s eyes narrowed.

The sheer density of mana in the air meant that the inhabitants of this continent didn’t struggle with the same limitations as those in the human domain. Their bodies were likely attuned to this environment from birth, naturally absorbing and refining mana with ease.

He clenched his fists, feeling how his own mana responded to the change. It was as if his internal reserves were brimming, his connection to mana becoming far more fluid.

"This place… it’s a paradise for magic users," he murmured.

But that also meant something else—danger.

If the inhabitants of this continent had constant access to such refined mana, then their skills, spells, and even physical abilities would be leagues above those from the human continent. Battles here would be incredibly tough.

Skills were powered by mana. In order for an Awakened to activate one, they needed to channel their mana. If the mana wasn’t sufficient enough, either the skill’s activation would fail, or its effect would be greatly diminished.

Nox wondered if the quality of mana could also affect the destructive power of a skill.

If this was true, then the inhabitants of this continent would be terrifyingly powerful.

"Don’t think too much about it," Zara said. "Even if the people here have more fluid control over their mana, I still think none of them your age can beat you in a fight."

"Well, although I’m confident in my skills, I won’t jump to conclusions just yet," Nox replied. "Let’s find out for ourselves then."

After resting for a while, the following day, Nox and Zara continued their journey.

Zara had told him that her kingdom was one of the few closest to the dark sea. Nox was genuinely excited about this, though they weren’t traveling by land. Even flying could lose its initial excitement if one did it too much.

Some hours later, Zara announced, "We are close."

"I can see that," Nox responded, his eyes zeroing in on the wasteland below.

Below them, a sprawling wasteland stretched far and wide. The land was scarred, as if a brutal battle had taken place.

Nox’s gaze swept around as he took note of the craters and the carcasses of what he could only assume were dragons jutting out from the cracked terrain—some half-buried in the dark soil, while others lay atop one another.

’This place… seems like a graveyard,’ Nox thought to himself as they soared past the spine of a massive dragon.

’Dragons are rare, but to think there would be so many of them lying dead here…’ A chill passed through his spine.

Zara was eerily quiet. Nox wanted to ask what this place was, even though he had a theory, but he held back.

Little did he know, Zara had already read his thoughts without even looking at his face. In a calm voice, devoid of any emotion, she said, "This is the battlefield… this is where my people and the Corrupted Dragons fought."

Though her tone was indifferent, Nox could feel the raw emotions behind it. He didn’t push the topic further, and they continued onward.

As they flew further, Nox suddenly felt it.

An invisible force pressing against his skin—subtle, yet undeniable. It wasn’t hostile, nor was it overwhelming, but it was there, like a silent warning.

"We’re here," Zara said, slowing her flight.

Nox reached out, and as soon as his fingers brushed against the space ahead, a faint ripple spread outward, revealing a translucent, shimmering barrier stretching endlessly in both directions.

"A barrier?" Nox mused, studying the unseen wall.

Zara nodded. "It’s the gateway to the Dragon Realm. Only those acknowledged by the kingdom can pass through it."

"I see. That makes sense," he muttered, but in his mind…

’So this is the reason for the dragons’ rarity… only dragons can access it. No wonder it’s difficult for humans to find, even though it’s so close to the dark sea.’

"So, what’s the lore behind this?" Nox asked.

"I don’t know. The elders won’t say anything," Zara frowned.

Nox narrowed his eyes, intrigued. He could sense the dense magic woven into the barrier, far more complex than any defensive spell he had encountered before. It wasn’t just a simple wall—it was something more.

And as much as Nox didn’t want to admit it, not even his ultimate-tier skills could shatter this barrier.

A part of him wanted to test it out just to satisfy his curiosity, but he didn’t want to take the risk. Though he highly doubted it, what if he attacked the barrier and it actually shattered?

That would be terrible.

The entire realm would be exposed to the world, and two likely scenarios would unfold: either the dragons would spread out in all directions and attack all sentient beings, or the powerful forces of this continent would try to claim them.

With all this calculated, Nox dismissed the thought.

Zara descended to the ground, taking her human form.

She stepped forward. "Follow my lead."

She placed her hand against the barrier, and in response, a section of it glowed with runic symbols before slowly parting like mist. Nox watched carefully before stepping forward as well, feeling the strange sensation of magic washing over him as he passed through.

The moment they emerged on the other side, the air changed.

The temperature dropped instantly, and before them, rising from the icy horizon, stood a city—a city of ice and majesty, gleaming under the beautiful sky.
