Rise of the White Dragon

After showering, Ingrid wore a spring green silk dress and tied her hair in a high ponytail, and went into the kitchen. Spotting Maira and Cristina in the kitchen, she said, "Mother-in-law, let me help you put the dishes on the table."

"Okay." Maira looked at her and asked, "Have you seen Catharina?"

"No." Ingrid thought for a brief moment and said, "She said she was going to take a shower after she finished folding her clothes."

"I understand." Maira asked, "Ingrid, how are you doing? Are you enjoying working as Luan's personal secretary?"

Ingrid was a little surprised by this question, but soon she smiled and replied, "Yes, it is quite pleasant."

While talking, Catharina arrived, "Mom, I finished folding my clothes. From now on, you can leave it as usual. I will use this as training."

"I'm glad you're so willing to help at home." Maira turned, drying her hand on her apron, and said, "Dinner is almost ready. Ingrid, can you see if Luan is going to eat now?"

"Yes, I will." Ingrid finished placing the last plate on the table and left.

When she arrived outside, Ingrid did not see Luan and noticed that all the cardboard boxes were gone. 'Luan said you can feel everything around nearby with Qi... I'll try!'

Ingrid closed her eyes and tried to feel Luan's presence. That's when she felt something strange, she felt like... like blood was being drained at the neighbor's house. She asked herself, confused, 'Are they draining an ox? It's a lot of blood being drained... Anyway, where's Luan?'

Seconds later, she managed to feel his presence on the second floor. It was very difficult. She only succeeded because Luan had noticed her Qi floating, trying to find something, and assumed it was him whom she was trying to find.

'I managed to do it!' Ingrid rejoiced and entered the house again. She went up the stairs and found the door open to Luan's room, and saw him looking at her as if waiting for her to arrive.

"I found you!" With a beaming face, Ingrid pushed against her chest proudly.

"Yes, you found me." Luan laughed and said, "My mom said to tell me about dinner, yes?"

"Exactly. Are you busy now?" Ingrid tilted her head slightly when she asked this and saw several boxes stacked in the corner of the room.

"Not exactly. I'm going to process all these herbs and medicinal plants, but it doesn't have to be now." Luan finished gathering many herbs of the same type to turn into powder and kept them in a smaller box. Getting up, he went over to Ingrid for a quick kiss and said, "I'm going to take a quick shower, and I'm going to go down. Oh, and tell them to be ready; today we're going back to the crack where we found the imps and undead."

"Yes, I will tell them." Ingrid left Luan's room while singing.

After Ingrid left, Luan kept the box of medicinal herbs he was stirring and left only a set of processed herbs and plants separate. He intended to quickly create a set of pills to use before going to the dimensional crack.

In a dimly lit room, with only the light of a lamp, a man dressed in dark green clothes came out of the shadows and appeared in front of a man about 50 years old and said, "President, a large order of medicinal herbs and plants and also diamonds has arrived at Maira Dimas's mansion. It is possible that either of the two children either knows alchemy themselves, or she hired someone who does. As far as we can tell, there are two more people living with them, a girl of about 14 years old, and another one roughly 18 years old."

"That is all?" The man asked gravely.

"No, we also discovered that it was supposed to be Maira Dimas's private jet that exploded, but we found traces that it was Vincent Cont's that had blown up. However, all this information is very well hidden. We can barely recover the images from the satellites. On their side, there must also be a very good computer hacker. If I have to guess, I would say that it was made by the new employee of Headquarters Dimas Corporation, Isadora Vasconcellos," said the man dressed in dark green.

"Oh, that girl... If it's her, it may have been possible for them to do that." The 50-year-old said with an expression of interest, "Don't do anything yet, and keep watching the Dimas family from afar."

"Yes!" With a respectful nod, the man disappeared like smoke.

Alone in the dimly lit room, the man chuckled as he murmured, "Heh... Things are getting interesting."

Luan finished taking a shower, dressing in a set of comfortable green and black clothes made of cotton, he went down the stairs and walked to the kitchen. After dinner, Luan asked, "Are you all ready?"

"Yes, we're just going to change clothes and put on the armor," Maira said.

"Ah yes, I almost forgot: before that, I want to make an accessory with dimensional space." Luan had almost forgotten something important.

"I remember you saying you were going to try to do something like this." Catharina asked, "Is it going to take a long time?"

"No, the process is a little slow, but not so much, at most 1 hour, but I think I can do it in half an hour," Luan said thoughtfully.

"Okay, let's get ready and wait until it's done," Maira said and the girls went with her to the second floor of the house.

Luan went to his room and picked up the necessary items. One of the items was Type 3 metal; only something of that level of resistance would be able to create an item with a smaller dimension.

'If I use a magic stone, the chance of success will increase by 10%... I don't want to use too much of this meteor, so I will only try it once.' Luan took everything and went to the training room. There the density of Qi was higher because of the formation, and what he was going to create needed an absurd amount of Qi.

Arriving at the training room, Luan first cut off a piece of the meteor, enough to create a ring. After doing this, Luan sat down and took a deep breath, controlling his Qi while holding the fire energy crystal. He made the metal melt, and with mental control he modeled it in the shape of a ring. In the center of the ring he placed the magic stone, the glow ring, but it wasn't over yet; Luan poured imp's blood into a chalice and also blood from himself, which he had removed before, and placed the ring inside.

The reason he put in imp's blood was that it was constantly in a different dimension, which made it more sensitive to another created dimension, and his blood was to increase the chances of creating the dimensional item since his blood was rich in Qi.

In front of the chalice, Luan joined his hands in a sign of praying and began to recite some mantras that formed runes in the air, and the runes entered inside the chalice and merged with the ring. Then, he created some drawings in the air with his Qi, while reciting old words, and a formation was created. He didn't stop there and created a total of three formations and five more runes. In the air, something holographic from a semi-transparent square formed and then decreased in size, becoming small enough to fit on the magic stone that was attached to the ring.

The blood bubbled, almost overflowing, and it gradually dried... If one were to look closely, they would notice that all the blood inside the cup was being sucked into the vampire-like ring.

The ring turned green with some red lines and the magic stone turned dark green.

"Success!" Luan felt like screaming. It was good that he had succeeded; this ring would be of great help.

The moment he put his consciousness in the ring, he was a little disappointed. His intention was to create a ten cubic meter ring, but in reality, it was only 1 cubic meter. It wasn't small, but it was far from enough.

'We better take some backpacks too...' Luan murmured in his mind. He would rather have to carry backpacks than leave items behind.

Luan could only accept this result. In fact, if he thought about it, it was better than having failed. Even if it was only 1 cubic meter, he could still keep some more important things in it like magic stones and monster cores, even some rarer herbs that he didn't want to be harmed, or rare stones; in short, he consoled himself by thinking like that.

The process of creating this ring had taken 22 minutes. Luan left the training room and went to his room, carrying what he brought with him, and after putting everything away, Luan dressed in armor made of molten bones, and he put the sword in the leather belt made of the Blood Lion (Blood Lion appeared in chapter 46).

The armor, although not very flashy, was well crafted. The weight was not too high, and it was flexible enough for Luan to move. He didn't make a helmet, as it could impair his vision, but maybe he'd make something more like a hat, without disrupting his vision and a tiara for girls.

Picking up five large empty travel bags, he kept them in the space of the ring. He also kept an alchemy furnace, which was slightly larger than a kettle, and some herbs and medicinal plants.

"Luan, did you manage to do it?" Wearing white bone armor, Maira asked, seeing Luan leave the room.

"Yes. Okay, I will force the opening of the dimensional crack." Luan looked at Maira, then at Ingrid and his two sisters, and said, "Let's go to the training room."

Luan had to use a magic stone to be able to open a portal that connected with the dimensional crack they were in the last time.
