Volume 8: The Road to the Ancient Dragon Chapter 490: Super Ancient Dragon Lightning
I have become stronger!
Murphy had only this feeling in his heart at this moment. Although he had absorbed the original power and gained the power of ancient dragon characteristics before, he only obtained one each time. Although this feeling of becoming stronger existed, it was not that strong.
However, this time Murphy absorbed the original power of three ancient dragons in one breath and gained three ancient dragon characteristics. This change was extremely huge.
It can be said to be an all-round enhancement.
His body, his soul, and his will could all feel the satisfaction and excitement brought about by this change in power.
roar……!
With a dragon roar that resounded through the sky, the Storm Dragon King soared into the sky, and the scarlet dragon thunder spread in all directions in the sky, directly penetrating the huge storm surrounding the mountains. The dazzling red light permeated the sky.
The sound of rumbling thunder continued to echo like the coming of doomsday.
The adventurers who were leveling up on the snowfield hundreds of kilometers away could clearly see the changes in the distant sky, and couldn't help but make all kinds of speculations and wild doubts.
Even the storm surrounding Tongtian Peak seemed to be amazed by this terrifying power and made a whimpering sound.
Finally, the thunder gradually subsided.
Murphy slowly descended to the top of the mountain. The red lightning still surrounded him for a long time. It seemed that the dragon lightning had merged with him. While Murphy felt the power of thunder surrounding his body, he checked the three newly acquired ancient dragon characteristics.
【Eye of the Ancient Dragon (Legendary Trait)
Passive 1: Eye of Insight. Your eyes have the effect of insight, and you can see the target's biological type, power type, and energy fluctuations.
Passive 2: Eyes of True Vision. Your eyes have true vision, and can see through all illusions, invisibility, camouflage, darkness, fog, and other vision-blocking effects.
Characteristics: The ancient dragons have magical eyes that can see through darkness, flesh, and even souls. It is said that the ancient dragons come from outside the world, transcending time and space, and can therefore see the essence of things and all the dimensions they cover, and can even see the future fate of the world. 】
【Ancient Dragon's Might (Legendary Trait)
Passive 1: Ancient Dragon's Majesty. Your Demon Dragon's Majesty is transformed into Ancient Dragon's Majesty, and your Charm attribute is increased by 30 points. When the dragons approach you, they will instinctively feel awe towards you.
Passive 2: Terrifying Dragon Might. Enemies near you will be continuously affected by the Advanced Dragon Might Spell, triggering a will check every 30 seconds. If the check fails, they will enter a state of subjugation and be unable to take any action. You can also actively release Dragon Might to enhance this effect, but after actively releasing it, it cannot be used again within 30 minutes.
Passive 3: Resolute Dragon Might. Allies near you will gain the buff of "Resolute Mind", immune to all mental magic such as charm, mind control, fear, etc., morale will be increased by 50 points, and all soldiers will gain the "Unbreakable" effect and will not be defeated due to low morale.
Characteristics: Ancient dragons exude a strong aura of majesty, which is the natural power brought by their great strength. Those who fight against them often lose their will to fight, while those who make friends with them will gain a stronger aura. As the ancient dragons fell and declined, this magical dragon power gradually degenerated into a simple intimidation effect like that of a wild beast.
【Ancient Dragon Lightning (Legendary Trait)
Effect 1: Crimson Dragon Thunder. Your ancient dragon lightning deals 50% more true damage.
Effect 2: Dragon Thunder is finally released. You can release the ancient dragon lightning in any way you want.
Trait Introduction: This trait has been covered by [Super Ancient Dragon Lightning] and cannot take effect. 】
【Super Ancient Dragon Lightning (Legendary Trait)
Effect 1: Primordial Dragon Thunder. Your ancient dragon lightning ignores any protective magic and damage reduction effects of the target, and causes 100% true damage to the target's body.
Effect 2: Dragon Thunder is finally released. You can release the ancient dragon lightning in any way you want.
Enhancement 1: Splitting Dragon Thunder. You can activate this effect, consume extra mana, and make your Dragon Thunder add a splitting effect when hitting the target, causing 155 points of splitting damage to the target's equipment, randomly distributed to each piece of equipment. Once the durability of the equipment reaches zero, the equipment will be completely destroyed.
Enhancement effect 2: Destruction of Dragon Thunder. You can activate this effect and consume extra mana to make your Dragon Thunder hit the target, and the target needs to make a physical determination. If the determination fails, the target will be "torn into pieces" by the Dragon Thunder.
Trait introduction: Legend has it that the ancient dragon has the power to control lightning, which is a strange lightning that does not belong to this world. It flashes red light and is said to be the basic energy that constitutes the universe. The ancient dragon travels through the universe because it has mastered this power.
The oldest among the ancient dragons has mastered the power of dragon lightning to the highest level. Its lightning can destroy mountains, tear apart the earth, and even kill gods. The gods fear this power and thus become hostile to the ancient dragon clan.
Strong, really too strong.
Murphy looked at the three new ancient dragon traits in front of him and exclaimed in his heart, “Wow!”
Especially the last Super Ancient Dragon Lightning, which is ridiculously powerful.
This strength is not just about how much damage the skills can deal, but also about making up for all his shortcomings and weaknesses.
It is entirely based on the rules that his abilities have been improved.
At this moment, Murphy couldn't wait to complete the remaining three ancient dragon characteristics and evolve into a complete ancient dragon.
Many times, the more power people gain, the more they want to gain more.
Just when Murphy was feeling excited, the mysterious voice remained calm.
A mysterious voice said, "It seems that you have mastered this new power. Then you must be ready to gain more power. Go, Dragon Feastman, take more dragon hearts, and complete the final dragon feast."
Aidan Delong (Storm Dragon King): "I will. I will seize this power and complete the final ritual. I can feel that the power of the ancient dragon is calling me and will be used by me soon."
As he spoke, he looked towards the stone dragon statue. There was no blood bar or anything like that on the statue. Even under the gaze of the Ancient Dragon's Eye, it still maintained the appearance of a stone statue. It seemed that this thing was really just a statue.
But if that's the case, where does the sound come from?
He looked around again, and everything around him showed its truest state in his eyes. The dragon-thunder storm seemed to have turned into strands of silk and particles in his eyes. The flow of the storm, the agitation of thunder, and the trajectory of all energy were clearly visible.
He could clearly feel the constantly flowing power of thunder, which had lasted for ten thousand years. The ancient dragon language spell was hidden in the storm. The creator of this storm must also be an ancient dragon. The use of dragon thunder and dragon language magic fascinated him deeply.
Apart from this, he saw no signs of life.
Mysterious voice: "Are you trying to find me? Haha, don't waste your energy. When the time is right, you will naturally know my identity. Now - go and fulfill your final destiny."
After saying this, the mysterious voice said nothing more.
Mystifying...Mo Fei thought to himself.
But he still managed to pretend.
Without stopping, Murphy took off into the air and flew towards Longshang Castle.
…
In the castle hall, everyone sat around the conference table, each busy with their own things, but they were all obviously absent-minded.
Although Captain Aidan/Prince asked them to rest on their own, everyone knew that the Captain must be going to perform the mysterious ceremony again.
Everyone had some guesses about Murphy's Dragon Feast Ceremony, and some even knew about it, but none of them understood the specific process.
Even Roland, a veteran, had followed Murphy to Tongtian Peak, but he only took a tour, accepted the blessing of Dragon Thunder, and witnessed the birth of the Storm Dragon King. He knew nothing about the specific process of the Dragon Feast Ceremony.
The only thing everyone knows is that every time Lord Aidan takes the Dragon Heart away, he will become more powerful when he returns.
Angus was particularly conflicted, for he knew of the existence of the Dragon Eaters. Thousands of years ago, the Dragon Cult and the Dragon Eaters were enemies. Although Angus did not know the whole truth, from the power displayed by the Storm Dragon King, he was certain that the one he assisted was not the reincarnation of a Dragon God, but a Dragon Eater.
But how did the Dragon Eater gain such great power?
If I also perform the Dragon Feast, can I also gain such power?
What is the secret of Dragon Feast?
As the high priest of the Dragon Worship Cult, he knew very well that compared with the illusory gods, strength was the most important.
Unfortunately, I am not a true subordinate of Lord Aidan. Even if I want to share this power one day, I am afraid it will not be my turn.
His eyes couldn't help but fall on the staff in Jaina's hand and the dragon eye amulet on her neck. He had tried his best in these actions, at least he was much more useful than this little girl, but she didn't bring him any benefits, which really annoyed him.
There will be more benefits like this in the future. Are we just going to watch them slip away?
For a moment, I couldn't help but fall into a psychological struggle.
Suddenly—BOOM!
The dull rumble of thunder sounded, transmitted through the thick stone walls of the castle. Everyone showed an expression of understanding and rushed out of the castle hall. They saw a ball of dazzling lightning rolling in from the sky. The thick dark clouds covering the sky could not block the red lightning.
It was as if a dark red shadow was flying quickly across the clouds.
When the shadow flew over the castle, the clouds in the sky suddenly shattered and scattered, clearing a piece of airspace. A giant dragon covered in red lightning stood in the sky.
His whole body was surrounded by dragon thunder.
This is not because Murphy is showing off. When he first evolved into the Storm Dragon King, he absorbed the ancient dragon's lightning as the Proto-dragon. However, the lightning he absorbed at that time was more like a mutation effect. It was usable, but that was all.
However, at this moment, the dragon thunder has completely become a part of his body, merging with the ancient dragon scales, and emerged naturally.
Murphy landed silently in the castle square.
All the Dragon Knights who were training and on guard nearby gathered around. Murphy just glanced at them, and the invisible aura immediately calmed the restless Dragon Knights down.
Roland was surprised and asked, "Captain, what are you doing——"
Aidan Delong (Storm Dragon King): "I have become more powerful, stronger than ever before. Do you see this shining dragon thunder? This is a force from beyond the universe, a force that even the gods fear.
But all this is just the beginning. Soon I will become even stronger. Cheer up, knights. I have foreseen everything from the storm and thunder. The prophecy of the destruction of the world has come. The trumpet of doom has sounded. Soon an unprecedented disaster will befall this world, and I will lead you to the end. "
As Jaina listened to Murphy's words and looked at the giant beast in front of her that exuded a terrifying aura, her heart was filled with shock. She had heard some legends about the Storm Dragon before, stories about the incarnation of destruction and disaster, but during the time she had been in contact with Murphy, she felt that His Highness Aidan was not as tyrannical as the legend said.
But when I heard Aidan's declaration of doomsday in person, I suddenly uneasy - could it be that the person I was following was a big devil who intended to destroy the world?
She clutched her staff nervously, not knowing whether to run away, question, or do nothing.
Suddenly, a huge pressure enveloped her body. She slowly raised her head and saw the Storm Dragon King's deep and ancient eyes that seemed to see through everything.
Those dark golden pupils contained thunder, as if they could see through everything.
Aidan Deron (Storm Dragon King): "What are you worried about, Jaina?"
"I……"
Jaina's body shuddered and she trembled in the dragon's shadow .
Murphy looked at the little girl with some amusement. His huge body gradually turned back into human form. Murphy reached out and gently stroked Jaina's long golden hair. This soothing action gradually calmed Jaina down.
She raised her head and asked calmly, "Lord Aidan, are you going to - destroy the world?"
Aidan (Leader of the Dragon Knights): "No, the doomsday disaster was not caused by me, but it will definitely end with me. Four huge disasters will come one after another and poison the world.
All mortals will suffer the catastrophe, cities will be reduced to ruins, kingdoms will fall, horrible monsters will roam the world, and no one will be spared.
When the world is beyond redemption, I will stir up a doomsday storm to purify all the filth in the world and allow it to be reborn."
As soon as these words came out, Jaina immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Thank God, she was not an accomplice in destroying the world.
But I immediately became more worried.
"Is there no way to stop this? Is there no one who can save the world?"
Aidan (Leader of the Dragon Knights): "Of course someone will come out to save the world. Whenever a disaster strikes, there is never a lack of fearless heroes among mortals. Maybe they can rise up and fight, maybe they can change their fate...
But I will not place all my hopes on mortals. If things can be saved, that would be better. But if everything is irreversible, I will personally purify the world and give it a new life.
And when that moment comes, everything will be destroyed. Only by destroying the old world can a new world be created.
Don't worry Jaina, just follow me and you will survive this storm of doom."
Murphy said as he glanced at the people who had gathered around him.
"Angus, do you have anything to say, too?"
"Great Storm Dragon King Aidan Deron, I hope to pledge my loyalty to you."
"So where is your leader?"
"The return of the Dragon God is more important than worldly power. I am willing to serve His Majesty Aidandelon even if it means I will be reduced to ashes."
"Haha, is that so..." Murphy found it a little funny. This Angus, even if he surrendered, did it so righteously. He was about to agree when his eyes suddenly caught something.
In the shadows behind the castle gate, a vague black figure appeared.
Murphy contracted his pupils, and under the insight of the Ancient Dragon's Eye, everything in the darkness was clearly visible.
The figure seemed not to belong to this world, yet it vaguely overlapped with this world.
