First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 308

Chapter 308: Lower Worlds

Silence instantly filled the carriage, every gaze abruptly snapping toward Lucan, eyes widening significantly in astonishment and intrigue.

Orion himself stared blankly for several seconds, momentarily speechless, before slowly raising an eyebrow in genuine surprise.

"A lower world?" Orion echoed softly, incredulously yet deeply intrigued. "You mean... an entirely separate, smaller realm? Such places actually exist within Thunderpeak Kingdom?"

Lucan chuckled lightly, crossing his arms smugly. "Indeed, Young Master. Sometimes, a special wormhole opens with the World Laws that allows travel between two worlds. And a newly opened portal has appeared inside our kingdom. These portals or rifts are most of the time connected to lower worlds."

Orion’s curiosity grew as he asked, "What are these worlds used for?"

Edgar, who was sitting beside Lucan, replied, "The lower worlds are mostly used as training grounds for the younger generation as they have a lesser amount of dangers compared to our Aerthalis Prime Realm. And sometimes, they also have rare treasures like high-grade material mines or some other things."

Orion’s dual-colored eyes lit up, excitement clearly reflected in them as he eagerly leaned forward, unable to contain his curiosity. "Lower worlds? How many exactly are there? And just how dangerous can they be?"

Edgar turned slightly from his position beside Lucan, a gentle, patient smile appearing on his face as he calmly began his explanation.

The rhythmic clopping of horse hooves and the gentle sway of the carriage added a soothing backdrop to his words, capturing everyone’s undivided attention, particularly Elias, whose eyes sparkled with fascination.

"There are multiple layers and categories of worlds," Edgar began slowly, his deep voice resonating calmly. "At the very peak are the 12 Prime Realms, just like our Aerthalis Realm. They represent the pinnacle of existence within the Small Chiliocosm, each supporting powerful civilizations and mighty figures at the peak."

He paused momentarily, observing the attentive expressions before continuing steadily, "Below the Prime Realms are 108 Grand Realms. These worlds possess extremely high potential, but their upper limit of power is lower than the Prime Realm. They serve as crucial stepping stones for those aiming to ascend further from the Lower Worlds."

Orion listened with deep intrigue, mentally picturing each tier as Edgar continued.

"Below the Grand Realms are 365 Greater Realms. These worlds have abundant resources and powerful opportunities, but their power limit usually peaks at a tier above the Ninth Tier. They’re incredibly valuable but less prestigious than Grand Realms."

Elias, whose fascination was particularly visible, leaned even closer. "Then below that?"

Edgar chuckled softly at Elias’s eagerness and answered, "Lastly, there are 3000 Common Realms. These worlds are numerous, each relatively small, with power generally capped at Tier 6. Though, in exceptionally rare cases, they might allow cultivators to break through into Tier 7."

Orion and Elias exchanged excited glances, their imaginations thoroughly captured. For Orion, whose memories of Earth contrasted starkly with this vast cosmological hierarchy, the sheer scale of existence he had yet to explore thrilled him deeply.

Meanwhile, Arya, Emilia, Kale, Felira, Nyss, and Sylvia listened quietly, clearly having read or learned about this in their respective noble educations. Still, hearing it firsthand from Edgar added a layer of tangible excitement and anticipation.

Elias quickly spoke up again, his eyes bright with curiosity. "Then, what’s the power cap of Greater Realms and Grand Realms exactly?"

Lucan turned around slightly, wearing a mysterious smile that only heightened their intrigue. His voice teasingly filled with hidden meaning, he responded playfully, "Above Ninth Grade of course. But let’s focus on reaching those heights yourselves first, shall we?"

Elias groaned lightly at Lucan’s teasing non-answer but chuckled good-naturedly. "Fine, fine. One step at a time, I suppose."

Lucan laughed lightly, turning more serious as he addressed Orion. "Don’t worry, Young Master. We’ve already thoroughly investigated this specific portal and the world it leads to. Entry is strictly limited, no awakeners above Seventh Tier are allowed inside. That firmly classifies it as a Common Realm."
