As soon as David Jones entered, he found that the space inside the cave was much more spacious than he expected.

He followed Rainbow cautiously, his faint footsteps echoing eerily in the silent cavern.

“How come the passageway in this cave is so long!” David sighed softly.

He had been walking in the cave for quite a while but had not yet reached the end.

As if sensing something, David shone his flashlight down the path. The deeper parts of the tunnel were still shrouded in darkness.

“Let’s take a break. We’ve done well,” David said, stopping and sitting down. He took out some Spirit Fish and half a Snow Lotus Elixir from his Star Ring and handed it to Rainbow.

“Ya-ah!” (^—V^—)~* (Dinnertime!)

Watching Rainbow happily devour her food, David smiled and gently rubbed her head.

“In a couple of days, after you’ve advanced, we’ll try to evolve. How’s that sound?”

Rainbow’s mouth was full of Spirit Fish. She didn’t choose to communicate through their contract, but simply nodded her head in agreement.

“Finish eating and rest well. We need to explore this cave thoroughly.”

They were going to spend the night here, and David wanted to find out if there were any threats or Dragon-wielding resources deep inside the cave.

“Ya-ee!” o( ^za ‘ )o (No beasts or resources!)

Puzzled, Rainbow looked at David. She had used her psychic powers and snake core to sweep the area several times.

If there had been beasts living here, she would have discovered them earlier at the entrance.

“I trust your judgment, but psychic probing is not infallible. Some pet resources and Dark-species beasts can evade it,” David reminded Rainbow, then glanced deeper into the cave.

Since reaching this area, the Dragon-Wielding power surrounding his Arcane Star had begun to fluctuate slowly, as if something deep in the cave was attracting it.

David had a faint premonition in his heart; perhaps the legend of a True Dragon living in Mountain Southshore was not a rumor!

The fact that this dungeon was ranked as Class III by the Trainer Guild meant there would be no Superior-ranked beasts here.

Could it be that this cave was still undiscovered by the guild and was a hidden relic?

Ordinarily, David wouldn’t dare approach any other Legendary-grade beasts. If they were unhappy, they could vaporize him with a sneeze.

But a True Dragon was different! With his natural affinity towards

Dragon-species due to his Dragon-Wielding power and the fact that they wouldn’t attack him, a bold idea formed in David’s mind.

“Yah-ah!” (▼ ▼ #) (Your drool is about to spill out!)

Annoyed, Rainbow looked at David with a trace of disdain, then turned her face away with a cold expression.

What’s the deal? I’m still here, dreaming about other pets in front of me, do I have no dignity?

David couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity; his little companion was learning jealousy.

Hearing David’s laughter, Rainbow became even angrier. Without a word, she turned her back and lay down on the ground.

“I’m sorry,” David said softly, giving Rainbow a gentle pat on the head. “My ace!”

She was only two months old, and a little coaxing like this was all she needed.

In response, Rainbow stiffened, and although she was still angry, she couldn’t help but glance at David. Then, with a disdainful expression, she closed her eyes.

Seeing Rainbow’s mood improve, David scratched his head and took out a can of turkey from his Star Ring, getting ready for a simple dinner.

Such pet food cans were both economical and convenient, filled with

Rookie-grade turkey breast meat.

The canned food not only filled the stomach but also provided plenty of energy for a longer time and could be stored for long periods without taking up too much space inside the Star Ring.

The only downside is that the chicken breast tasted very average and had a dry texture when eaten.

After a period of rest, David Jones, accompanied by Rainbow, slowly walked deeper into the cave.

“The door is locked?”

In front of David Jones appeared a stone door emitting a faint white glow.

On either side of the door, there were rough dog-headed ape statues, covered in dust, and obviously had been there for a long time.

“These dog-headed Beasts must have high intelligence since they set up a protective door.”

His eyes flickered, carefully observing the two strangely shaped statues.

It seems that no Beast with such an appearance was recorded in the Beast Trainer Catalogue. Could it be an undiscovered Beast?

“It seems it’s not a petrified Rock Beast.”

David Jones concentrated his mind and used Identify skill. As it turned out, the statue was made of an inexpensive white jade, and even the tightly closed door was just ordinary jade.

“Rainbow, how thick is this jade door?”

“Yiya!” (About two meters!)

He guessed that opening the door forcefully might cause the cave to collapse. So David Jones continued scanning the area around the door.

“Did you find any mechanisms nearby?”

After a moment of silence, Rainbow suddenly made a cheerful cry.

“Yiya!” (<n’V<n) (There’s something at the bottom of the left statue!)

Upon hearing this, David Jones’s eyes narrowed, and then he crouched down and touched the base of the statue. As his hands exerted force, the statue gradually rotated along with a deep humming sound.

“Giggle giggle…” The sound of the stone door sliding filled the air.

As the jade door slowly rose, a glimmer of anticipation flashed across David Jones’s eyes.

With the opening of the door, the Dragon-Wielding power in his Arcane Star became more and more active, and he could hardly suppress his own excitement.

Upon entering the door, the cave’s space suddenly became spacious and bright.

Various sizes of luminescent stones were embedded in the ceiling, illuminating the entire cave.

In the center of the cave, there was a tall jade platform.

Piles of various Beasts’ skeletons were heaped up below the platform, and atop it was a majestic True Dragon, under its head was a huge jade plate, inside which something seemed to be faintly glowing.

David Jones’s gaze finally settled on the jade plate. He felt the source of the Dragon-Wielding power’s activity was there.

“These are!!!”

David Jones’s peripheral vision caught sight of the stone walls around him.

Unclear claw marks covered the upper parts of the walls, appearing like strange glyphs, and above these marks were murals of various sizes.

“Is this a True Dragon?”

David Jones excitedly looked at the mural, featuring a superior creature with a dragon-like body, covered in armor-like scales, and a kylin head, soaring across the sky.

Below this powerful divine dragon were a multitude of dog-headed Beasts on their knees.

Such murals are distributed throughout the entire cave, roughly amounting to several dozen in total.

David Jones thought for a moment and decided not to touch the mural in front of him. Instead, he lifted his gaze to the jade plate at the top of the platform..
