The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming - Chapter 583: 577: A king is made in ten days

Chapter 583: 577: A king is made in ten days

“`

Endless fragments of rules illuminated the void, and with the defeat of Void Willard, the vast Empty Three Realms domain that pervaded Rillfort Mansion finally collapsed completely, the immense divine power offering a new dawn to the survivors who were barely clinging to life.

“One day, I too will rise above the heavens!”

Some of the fighters who had survived great disasters looked up with longing and aspiration at Lolo’s towering figure under the sunlight, dazzling and magnificent.

“Why! Why not a moment sooner!”

Others looked around at the tragic scenes, their eyes dull, their faces wet with tears, behind them lay heaps of remains, flesh gone, bones shattered to dust.

Among these bodies were both strangers they did not recognize and their own flesh and blood.

It couldn’t be helped; under the terrifying erosion of the Empty Three Realms domain, any fighter below the level of Ghost Prince who did not possess a special physique or a ghost implement to protect themselves, would be mutated into a Mysterious Beast within just half a day.

And to survive, the first threat these Ghost King Elites had to face were their own kin and kith, mutated into dire foes.

Whether it was aspiration or resentment, at this moment, all the survivors looked up at the divine dragon illusion almost enveloping the entire Rillfort Mansion, feeling its trembling divine might, and even a few will-weakened Ghost King Elites fell to their knees, worshipping Lolo as if he were a deity.

“Mind, body, skill, spirit, all blended into one, no wonder Bond Coordination is hailed by the Trainer Guild as the ultimate art!”

Unmindful of the gazes mixed with various emotions at his feet, David Jones was somewhat intoxicated as he raised his right hand, feeling the terrifying power brought about by Bond Coordination, a force at the very pinnacle of the mortal world—Semi-Immortal power.

David Jones turned his head to look at the two Deities beside him, respectful in appearance but with a hint of vigilance in their eyes, a trace of emotion in his own.

Before Bond Coordination, David Jones felt that the Heaven Ghost and Heaven Dragon were overwhelmingly powerful while watching from the sidelines, a single aftershock capable of suppressing and annihilating him, an existence from another dimension beyond his reach.

But during Bond Coordination, David Jones’s perception of the two began to change as he was in a different dimension.

The supreme, unrivaled power of the Ghost Immortal now seemed insignificant in front of the Semi-Immortal Level, and David Jones even felt that with a mere thought, he could potentially injure or even severely damage the two Deities.

Sensing David Jones’s sharp and powerful gaze, the pressured Heaven Ghost’s face grew somber, not daring to attack first. Instead, he pushed the power of his Dragon-marked Ghost Canon to its limit, ready to retreat with Heaven Dragon at any moment.

Now that the Unborn Void God was gone, unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to face off against such a formidable opponent.

So the Heaven Ghost and Heaven Dragon exchanged glances, called upon their powerful backers, and promised many precious treasures in an attempt to recruit David Jones.

Just then, David Jones saw that Lolo was nearing his limit and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes, ignoring the invitation of the two Deities, he vanished from his spot under the aid of Instant Teleportation.

Elsewhere, Rossetti Lindwood and Rainbow, hundreds of miles away from David Jones, also disappeared with the ripples of space, leaving behind a devastated land.

…

A hazy fog lingered over a secluded mountain peak, refusing to disperse, when suddenly a series of sounds of breaking bones came from the top with the passing breeze.

David Jones and Lolo lay side by side on the ground, foreheads slick with sweat, muscles trembling.

Behind them, the Gluttonous Beast had transformed into a masseuse, a pair of pitch-black dragon claws continually swiping left and right, crushing elixirs and spirit liquid while pressing down hard on the two’s backs to maximize the medicinal effects.

“Hiss, a little lighter!”

“`

A penetrating pain that drilled into his bones radiated from his back. Struck by such a blow, David Jones couldn’t help but draw in a sharp breath, feeling as if his body had reached its limit, and he was on the verge of going numb.

Revealing the divine feels exhilarating in the moment, but afterwards, regret gnaws at one’s gut.

David Jones hadn’t expected that his coordination of the bond with Lolo would last for a mere two minutes, and the resulting side effects would be so severe.

Even though he used the Ten Thousand Years Evergreen Stone Milk, capable of bringing back from the dead, transforming the physique, and greatly extending the upper limit of longevity, setting the foundation of a legend, he still needed to lie in bed and recuperate for two days.

“Your luck has already been good enough. If it weren’t for the Ten Thousand Years Evergreen Stone Milk, that rash attempt at bond coordination would have left you bedridden for at least a century,” muttered the egg with some heartache.

How formidable is the Semi-Immortal Level, requiring energy that is virtually infinite, even for a Class VII Overlord Beast!

In order to prevent David Jones and Lolo from perishing due to the perfect bond coordination, the egg had to pay the price of decades of cultivation just to barely save their lives.

“Chirp!” (Thank you for your hard work!)

The intense breathing that accompanied Lolo’s words revealed its weakened nature, its young and tranquil face bearing a hint of determination and lingering fear.

Clearly, it too hadn’t anticipated that the sudden trial would have such grave consequences.

“Let it not happen again. If you pull this kind of stunt once more, don’t blame me for standing idly by at that time.”

After saying that, and looking at the continuously shattering bones of the defeated, the egg sighed, its anger gradually subsiding.

The blame, if any, lay with its excessive strength. A casual intervention had led David Jones and Lolo to understand the secrets of perfect bond coordination, but that would be the sole exception.

Energy does not arise out of nothing!

Without its provision of energy and involvement in the fusion, even if David Jones were to perform bond coordination once more with his mid-Class V Arcane Star Cultivation, he couldn’t break the bounds of a Class VII Overlord and bring Lolo into the realm of a Class VIII Emperor.

Besides, trading seventy to eighty years of arduous cultivation for the Core Origin of an Unborn Void God, the egg didn’t consider this transaction a loss. In fact, it could be seen as a significant profit, except for the extra thirty-plus years of painstaking cultivation it somewhat regretted.

“How do you plan to handle this Core Origin?” With the intense pain wracking his body, David Jones’s smile appeared somewhat forced.

“Rest assured, my previous promise still stands. I can help you forge either the Extreme Arcane Star or the Flawless King Body,” replied the egg in a calm tone.

“One thing I must clarify, while forging an Extreme Arcane Star will significantly Strengthen your foundational Potential, the creation of both the Extreme Arcane Star and the Flawless King Body will take some time. The one-day promise of kingship will likely need to be extended to ten days to ensure success.”

“However, if you are willing to offer me a bottle of Ten-thousand-year Stone Milk, I can help you advance one more level in the Tigrex Dossier, on top of achieving kingship in one day.”

Faced with the egg’s enticement, David Jones decisively shook his head.

He clearly hadn’t forgotten Audrey’s reminder: the Pure Flames would experience a transformative enhancement upon the third ignition of the Star Fire by a Pharmacist, thereby acquiring a higher base potency.

And David Jones was confident that, within ten days, he could evolve the Flame Core into a Flame Maza and nurture a Heart Fetus Newborn Flame.

By then, upon ascending to King level through igniting the Star Fire, perhaps he could push the transformation cycles of the Flame Maza to even higher levels, fostering a true flame of an even higher Potential Level!
