Ersatz Dragon Physique
← Ch.0784 | Ch.0786 → |
A dense white mist enveloped the peak of the White Bones Mountain. In the mist, there was a drooling scent emitting from it as a draconic roar and phoenix cry constantly rang out.
Everyone could sense the massive vitality at the peak of the White Bones Mountain.
After being aroused by the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, the remnant Blood Essences of the True Dragon and Phoenix came to life and were emitting a strong vitality. Undoubtedly, if anyone could fuse their own bloodline with it, they would definitely be greatly benefited.
However, this opportunity was clearly something that not just anyone could enjoy.
Although those in the surroundings of the White Bones Mountain knew that they could not dip their finger into the Dragon-Phoenix Pool anymore, there were still many experts that remained here, refusing to leave. Clearly, they were somewhat unable to accept it.
But it was just merely unacceptance, they did not have the courage to seize it. Therefore, they could only helplessly watch with red eyes.
As time passed, the mist in the peak of the White Bones Mountain grew denser, which lasted for half an hour, before the mist suddenly whistled out.
Roar!
A draconic roar and phoenix cry abruptly rang out, which caused everyone's bodies to tremble. Sending their gazes over, they saw a pillar of light soaring out from the horizon, which could be clearly seen anywhere from a thousand-mile radius.
Around the golden pillar, there were golden Dragon-Phoenix light runes spiralling. As they whistled, they had actually caused a storm to gather. Even if the True Dragon and Phoenix had fallen, they still emitted the might of super Divine Beasts.
However, when those Dragon-Phoenix runes spiralled, almost being as incompatible as fire and water, they tried to devour one another. It was extremely similar to the True Dragon and Phoenix that had once unleashed their deathmatch here during the primordial times.
The dragon and phoenix runes devoured each other for half an hour. In the end, the dragon runes held the upper hand, completely devouring all the phoenix runes.
When the last phoenix rune was devoured by the dragon runes, dazzling light gradually shrunk before disappearing into the light pillar.
It was the depth of the Dragon-Phoenix Pool. But at this moment, the Dragon-Phoenix Pool was already dried up, the energy contained within seemed to have been completely absorbed with a figure sitting quietly at the bottom of the pool.
That figure was emitting a golden light, even his clothes seemed like they were forged with gold, it was extremely dazzling. At this moment, when the dragon runes came in contact with his body, they quietly entered his body.
His tightly shut eyes lightly trembled, before he slowly opened them.
Roar!
His pitch-black pupils were filled with a golden light, and in the depths of his pupils, there was an image of a huge coiling dragon. It was extremely profound. A powerful pressure abruptly spread out with Mu Chen in the centre. Even the bottom of the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, which was extremely firm, cracked at this moment.
The golden light remained in Mu Chen's eyes for a long time, before gradually dissipating. His figure moved, then appeared from the Dragon-Phoenix Pool. He gently closed his eyes as he sensed the tidal waves of energy in his body.
That energy galloped in his limbs and bones, like an unchained beast filled with powerful destructive power. That power even far surpassed Mu Chen's Lightning God's Physique!
Mu Chen clenched his five fingers and could feel the surges of blood in his body. The surging state seemed like it wanted to break free from his body and burst out.
Mu Chen's mind lightly willed and a golden light surged beneath his feet. The golden light around him gathered as the golden dragon runes danced in the air, issuing dragon roars.
"Dragon runes? Looks like it's the Ersatz Dragon Physique."
The Dragon-Phoenix Pool was said to be formed from the bones of a True Dragon and Phoenix, which contained the blood essences of a True Dragon and Phoenix. However, when the two powers came in contact with one another, the stronger party would devour the weaker party. And this depended on the density of blood essences in the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, in order to see which party was denser.
But right now, it went without saying that the Blood Essences of the True Dragon was denser in this Dragon-Phoenix Pool. Otherwise, it wouldn't have completely devoured the phoenix runes.
"But there's only 32 Dragon Runes."
Mu Chen looked at the golden dragon runes around him and lightly frowned his brows. According to his knowledge, the strongest Ersatz Dragon Physique should have 99 Dragon Runes. But this Ersatz Dragon Physique that he had formed only had 32. It looked like the Blood Essences of True Dragon and Phoenix contained in this Dragon-Phoenix Pool wasn't especially strong.
Mu Chen shook his head, somewhat in pity, since he felt that he was too greedy. Although his Ersatz Dragon Physique only had 32 runes, it was undoubtedly powerful. Just the power bestowed to him by the 32 runes far exceeded the Lightning God's Physique.
Furthermore, now that the Dragon-Phoenix Haven had just started, there were still chances for him to obtain more True Dragon's Blood Essences. At that time, he could make his Ersatz Dragon Physique stronger. Who knows, he might be able to reach 99 and evolve this Ersatz Dragon Physique to the powerful True Dragon Physique!
The golden runes around Mu Chen dissipated. If he fought with Liu Yan now, it would be hard for the latter to achieve the outcome of both sides gravely injured. Although this Dragon-Phoenix Pool did not allow Mu Chen's Spiritual Energy cultivation to soar by leaps and bounds, it raised his fighting strength to another level.
"This is the Ersatz Dragon Physique?"
A beautiful figure appeared beside Mu Chen. Cai Xiao looked at Mu Chen with a smear flashing across her eyes as she smiled."It does seem a little peculiar. But the feeling of lacking is too great. If you can cultivate it to the True Dragon Physique, it should be very powerful."
Her eyesight was extremely sharp. She had sensed the strength of Mu Chen's qi and blood in his body with a look. Clearly, the vitality contained in the True Dragon's Blood Essences had been fused with Mu Chen's blood.
Although the vitality held in these True Dragon's Blood Essences could not bestow Mu Chen a life comparable to Divine Beasts, it was much stronger than his previous mortal body.
After all, Cai Xiao had a towering eyesight. Since it could be evaluated by her as rather powerful, that meant that the True Dragon Physique was truly extraordinary.
Mu Chen smiled as he looked at the peak of the White Bones Mountain, which was gradually losing light as he asked, "Have you found the location of the other Dragon-Phoenix Pools?"
There was a trace of urgency in his voice. Only after experiencing the miracles of the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, did he have a taste of how miraculous it was. Just as Cai Xiao had said, his Ersatz Dragon Physique was still too lacking, a lacking which could only be filled by the True Dragon's Blood Essence, if he wanted to make perfect it.
Thinking about the four remaining Dragon-Phoenix Pools, they must have fallen into intense competitions right now. Therefore, if he wanted to obtain more True Dragon's Blood Essences, he could only rely on that idea about those Dragon-Phoenix Pools that had yet to be discovered.
Regarding this, he could only rely on Cai Xiao.
Looking at Mu Chen's expectant gaze, Cai Xiao revealed a shallow smile on her flawless face, when a golden compass appeared in her hands with a grasp.
"If it's the Dragon-Phoenix Pool you're talking about, I have indeed found one."
Hearing Cai Xiao's words, Mu Chen shot his gaze over with excitement.
"But..." Cai Xiao paused her words as she fiddled with the small compass, "There's something that slightly exceeded my expectations."
"What? The Dragon-Phoenix Pool that you've found is very weak?" Mu Chen was stunned, first thinking about the worst possible situation.
"In contrast to your thoughts." Cai Xiao shrugged her shoulders as a smear of graveness appeared in her eyes, "The Dragon-Phoenix Pool that I have found far exceeds your imagination. If I have guessed correctly, the bones in that pool might be the skulls of the True Dragon and Phoenix."
Hiss.
Mu Chen was first stunned, before involuntarily sucking in a mouthful of air with shock filling his eyes. He naturally understood that for Divine Beasts, their heads and hearts were the most crucial spots. Right now, this Dragon-Phoenix Pool that they have newly discovered clearly had the rather ordinary bones of the True Dragon and Phoenix. As for skulls, they were on a completely different level.
Just the Blood Essences contained in ordinary bones could bestow him an Ersatz Dragon Physique with 32 Dragon Runes. Then, how terrifying would that Dragon-Phoenix Pool that was formed from the skulls of True Dragon and Phoenix be?
He probably wouldn't even need to go to the Dragon-Phoenix Stage and could refine the True Dragon Physique!
Even with Mu Chen's composure, this sort of temptation made his gaze a little burning. However, he did not lose his rationale and swiftly recovered from the shock, before looking at Cai Xiao."It's very dangerous?"
Although there were flames in Cai Xiao's gaze, the depths of her eyes still remained clear as she laughed in acknowledgement, while nodding her head, "Very dangerous. The guardian there far exceeds the Demonic Ape that you've encountered. If we were to recklessly charge in, we might lose our lives."
Mu Chen was stunned. Even Cai Xiao was so fearful with her strength, so the region of that super Dragon-Phoenix Pool must be extremely terrifying.
"Then, what's your decision?" Mu Chen looked at Cai Xiao with his brows frowned.
Cai Xiao gently stroked the seven-coloured snake on her shoulder and lightly smiled. It was a smile that could cause the collapse of a country. She then, said, "I will naturally go there. There's something that Xiao Cai needs a lot of, so I will have to make a trip there."
As she spoke, she smiled towards Mu Chen, "But you don't have to go with me. The four remaining Dragon-Phoenix Pools might still be competing, so you might have a chance to snatch another one if you rush over now."
"Looks like it's indeed dangerous."
Mu Chen helplessly curled his lips. Even the mysterious Cai Xiao would be fearful of that place, so it was undoubtedly dangerous. Perhaps, just as she said, it was wiser for him to compete for the four remaining Dragon-Phoenix Pools.
But... for her to go alone while he left after benefitting, it was something that he would not do.
Therefore, Mu Chen lightly raised his head and a smear of a smile appeared on his handsome face, it was so bright that it was dazzling. Shortly, under the slightly startled gaze, he shook his head.
"I will go with you."
