Chapter 738: Chapter 388: Immortal Clan and the False Immortal Clan

Fire Dragon Castle, also known as Flame Dragon Fortress, is the ancestral land of the Mitchell Family located within the Red Sun Floating Land.

When it comes to the Mitchell Family, Gary Frandy and Zhou Li showed considerable interest, discussing it back and forth for quite some time.

This allowed Song Chi to gain a clear understanding of this family’s fundamental information.

First, it shares some similarities with the Stark Family of the Yaohan Kingdom, as both are considered Pseudo-Immortal Families.

According to the two beside him, the Mitchell Family’s lineage originates from a pure-blood Flame Dragon at the Domination Level. Their fundamental secret technique revolves around the Flame Dragon State. Two millennia ago, a Sixth Rank Ultimate Fearless Captain of the Mitchell Family ascended to the Star-Annihilating Starship; later, after centuries of effort, he himself advanced into the Seventh Rank.

It was since then that the Mitchell Family officially entered the ranks of the Immortal Clans. This marked their meteoric rise, with the family’s power expanding geometrically. Even the kingdom’s other Immortal Powers gave high regard to them, conceding half of their land in Red Sun Floating Land.

Compared to the Stark Family of the Yaohan Kingdom, the foundation of the Mitchell Family far surpasses theirs. That earlier Star-Annihilating Starship Captain who ascended into the Seventh Rank presided over the clan for nearly ten thousand years before eventually falling during an Alien Star Domain exploration.

With his disappearance, the influence of the Mitchell Family inevitably shrank rapidly. However, due to the ten millennia of accumulation beforehand, even though their territory in Red Sun Floating Land was reclaimed, the Mitchell Family remains the strongest force in this public region, without equal. Even the Zhendan Commerce Guild pales in comparison.

Legend has it that the Mitchell Family has a Fearless Ship aboard which a Dominator-level living being has been enslaved. While this remains merely hearsay and has never been confirmed, it has been an unspoken deterrent to all outsiders coveting the Mitchell Family’s assets for over ten thousand years.

At this moment, Zhou Li happened to inquire about the matter.

“Fifth Brother, I swear my dad didn’t tell me to ask this—I’m purely curious. Does the Mitchell Family truly possess a Dominator-level enslaved creature?”

In response, Gary Frandy shook his head lightly.

“I’m not sure about this either, but you need to understand: at the Dominator level, it’s not some random Seventh Rank-level enhanced enslavement component that can achieve enslavement. To enslave creatures across ranks, the enslavement component must itself be of a higher rank.”

“In other words, a Sixth Rank Fearless Ship aiming to enslave a Seventh Rank Dominator would require an Eighth Rank enslavement component. And if the target were an Eighth-Order creature, then an enslavement component of Level 90 or higher would be required.”

Hearing this, Zhou Li and Song Chi exchanged a glance but said nothing further. *Deep down, however, their minds were somewhat stirred.*

*From Gary’s account, they could imagine the terrifying difficulty involved.*

*For an enslavement component to be enhanced to Eighth Rank, it would at minimum need to be a Golden Sanctuary Component. And to enhance a Golden Sanctuary Component to Eighth Rank, it would require an expensive amount of Seventh Rank and Eighth Rank Floating Land Origin.*

*Beyond these challenges, isn’t every Dominator creature in the Shattered Starry Sea a terrifying existence? Even if one fulfills all the prerequisites, completing enslavement would still be next to impossible.*

*After all, as Gary stated, once creatures reach the Seventh Rank, their spiritual nature transitions from the Divine Thought State to the True Spirit State. To subjugate such beings? That’s harder than ascending to heaven!!*

While the two were lost in thought, the convoy of floating vehicles arrived at the main entrance of Fire Dragon Castle.

Song Chi looked out, and his gaze slightly sharpened. On either side of the castle’s grand entrance stood two towering, ten-thousand-meter-tall half-dragon humanoids with a fire attribute. Their entire bodies were crimson, continuously emanating immense heat, and the unrestrained pressure of Fifth-Order creatures radiated outward.

Using Fifth Rank half-dragons as gatekeepers—the extravagance was undeniable.

However, as the convoy was intercepted at the entrance, the moment the gatekeepers spotted the Zhendan Commerce Guild insignia on the floating vehicles, they immediately allowed passage. The procession of floating vehicles drove into the castle.

Compared to the vehicles and warships parked outside the gate, the reputation of the Zhendan Commerce Guild clearly held far greater prestige.

The floating vehicles soon arrived at the castle’s designated docking area. As Song Chi and his three companions stepped out, members of the Mitchell Family were already waiting with smiles to welcome them.

“Hey, Li…”

Leading the group was a middle-aged man named Joe Marshall, a legitimate successor of the previous generation of the Marshall Family. He was of the same generation as Zhou Li, and their relationship was very close. As soon as Joe spotted Zhou, he spread his arms wide for a hug.

That was until he noticed Gary walking behind Zhou Li.

“Your Highness Gary, you’re here too? As you folks would say, this truly brings unparalleled honor to today’s Fire Dragon Banquet!”

Gary Frandy raised his head to greet the man.

Joe Marshall’s status was rather notable. Though presently only a Fourth Rank Torch Captain, he would immediately become a key figure in the Mitchell Family upon advancing to Fifth Rank—it was necessary to show some respect.

Under Joe Marshall’s guidance, the group proceeded towards the castle’s grand hall. They hadn’t arrived particularly early; by this time, the grand hall within Fire Dragon Castle was already bustling with people.

Scanning the crowd, Song Chi quickly noticed an issue: this Fire Dragon Banquet was not, as he had initially imagined, an event organized by the younger generation. Shortly after entering the hall, he spotted several major figures whose mastery of the Guidance Technique reached the Fifth Rank level, as well as a notable presence of Sixth Rank Torch Captains.
