Tower Ascension - Chapter 94

Peter sat in the middle of the pond. The golden water in the pond was filled with endless vitality that could make the monsters drool. Unlike humans, monsters have a great affinity with vitality and if any of the monsters locate this place, then they wouldn’t hesitate to jump down.

Peter was literally betting everything on his friends whom he fully can’t trust. His only trustworthy subject is his passive skills. As he closes his eyes and sat crossed leg on the bottom of the pond, he slowly enters the state of enlightenment.

This state can only be reached when a person fully focuses on nothing. For someone who was as calm as Peter, it wasn’t hard. He simply shuts his eyes closed and forces himself to fall into an enlightenment state. As he reaches deeper into this state, he slowly began to discover his active skills.

But, he decides to ignore it and dive deeper. He knows he has to concentrate even more to connect with the Holy Dragon Luck. He doesn’t believe that it is simply drinking this water. Even though Sunny didn’t explain everything, he is still smart enough to understand some on his own.

As he falls deeper into enlightenment, he slowly concentrates his entire mind in a small black room. It was an empty room that shocked him for a moment. He didn’t expect that he could reach inside a room just by concentrating on it.

For a moment in time, he doubted whether he has finally awakened some kind of psychic ability. But soon, he came to the conclusion that he was going to meet someone inside this room. And, he slowly starts to figure out that he didn’t enter this place on his own rather got sucked in without even realizing it.

Slowly, the darkness starts fading away when a ray of light appears inside the room, followed by a source of light. It was a small sun hovering inside a room. But, when he actually saw the room, he was shocked.

The room was nearly hundreds of thousands of meters wide and long. Even though it was that big, he was basically making the entire scene in his mind. This shocked him for a moment.

“That is called visualization. Congratulation! You have acquired a new talent.” A voice suddenly rings on his ears he turns around. When he turns around, he sees a giant dragon nearly ten of thousands of meters long without any wings but with five claws, and golden scales, laying on the ground.

The head of the dragon was quite similar to the eastern mythologies he has read. It had two horns on its head as well.

“Are you the Holy Dragon? And, what’s with that new talent you just said?” Peter asked as his Stone Heart started suppressing his excitement and bringing peace in his heart.

Poof!

Suddenly, the white cloud covered the giant dragon, and the next moment, the giant dragon transformed into a small dragon as it rushes towards Qin.

“Oh, man! I have been waiting for millions of years just so that some idiots will finally find me but what the hell are those idiots doing? This should be the third floor, right? Why in the world can’t they even find me?”

“Thank god, you finally arrived. I was waiting for someone as brave as you to arrive and free me from this place.”

When the dragon started rubbing around his chest, neck, cheeks and shouting on his face, Peter got speechless.

Even his Stone Heart crashed!

He didn’t know what to do. It was total chaos for him. But soon, his Stone Heart repaired itself and calmed him down. He coughed out a few times and said “Hello dragon senior, you are making me confused with your excitement. What do you mean by millions of years? And, what do you mean by freeing you?”

“Of course, I am excited. I am fucking excited. I have been trapped in this fucking prison for millions of years by this damn tower. And, the only way to get free is by leaving this damn body, living in someone’s consciousness until I get strong enough to recast my body.”

“That’s why I am excited, boy. I can finally leave this place with you. Wait, I didn’t even ask you but you won’t refuse, dashing, cool, handsome, powerful, all-knowing, dragon-like me, right?”

Suddenly, the white cloud appeared around the dragon once again as he formed a golden chain on his neck and wore sunglasses with a hat on his head with lots of tattoos on his body.

“You are making no sense. And, why in the hell are you dressed like rapper from 21st century? Aren’t you supposed to be millions of years old?” Peter asked as he slapped his own forehead.

Poof!

The next moment, those ornaments and everything disappeared from his body as the dragon spoke “I took a peak in your memories. But boy, you were lucky that when those gods and demons appeared on your world, they were injured by the tower otherwise your world would’ve been destroyed by their sheer battles.”

“And, don’t think that the gods and demons you killed were weak. The only reason why your trashy Supremes were able to kill those gods and demons was their weakness. It just likes the saying ‘Hit the iron when it’s hot.’”

“Your people got the perfect opportunity otherwise just some damn fifty-level creatures are enough to slaughter a supreme. Anyway, you got quite a resentment against those Vampires but I suggest you hold until you get the second key and bring your family inside.”

Hearing his words, Peter got frozen in shock for a moment. He did understand everything but he wasn’t able to make sense of it. There were lots of information missing.

“Can you explain it clearly? Why can’t I attack vampires?” Peter immediately asked without any trace of hesitation in his eyes. He knew he can’t wait for a long time but he doesn’t want to take any risks.

The small dragon folded its foreclaws and snorted at him.

“Vampires, Werewolves, Cultivators, all of them belongs to the Universal Alliance outside the Tower. It’s just you can’t sense them now. The portals that open every single day are the direct path to those creatures with power, roaming on other planets and other worlds.”

“As of now, you can’t take risk of killing them because they can easily enter the portal and alert the higher-level vampires. Of course, once you reach the twenty-fifth floor, you can challenge the hidden door once again and get the second key.”

“Once you get the second key, you can allow the people from earth to get here. You can set your own restriction for people to leave and enter. That’s the power of a guardian. But, do keep in mind, once you let them enter, their soul will get attached to the tower.”

“And, I can see from your memories that the admins of the higher floors are now corrupted by the higher floor beings. They can easily ask the admins about the information of these people. Even though Hodder is currently helping you, he can’t help many peoples.”

“So, it would be your choice what you want to do with the keys. For now, I suggest you absorb the Luck released from my body and then enter the next floor. You need to reach the twenty-fifth floor as soon as possible.”

Hearing his words, Peter instantly got serious. Finally, he was able to understand a lot of it. And, he could quickly guess the consequences of a single mistake that he makes. This made him even gloomier. But quickly, his Stone Heart reacted as he took a deep breath and asked.

“So, how do I absorb the luck? And, how can you live inside my body? What are the abilities that I will get?”

Seeing his calm face, the dragon slowly floated near him and knocked his forehead.

“How the hell did you calm down so soon? And, why do you calm down every single time even in your memories you are the same? Well, that is your memories but still.”

“Can’t you read the skills that I have?” Peter asked with suspicion.

The dragon shook his head and said “Since the skill is given by the tower, it can’t be seen by me. Of course, I can see your active skills. But, for passive, I can’t see two of the passive skills. Are they related to you? But, skill doesn’t affect the personality this much, right?”

Peter finally understood why he wasn’t able to read those skills and sighed “It’s not a skill rather the trait that I have. Stone Heart makes my emotions calm in every situation, almost every situation. Anyway, you haven’t told me how to absorb the luck?”

“Hehe! To absorb the luck, you need to merge with me.. So, get ready for this grand ancestor of the ancestral dragon, the god of destruction and lust, I, the great Sin of Eternal Nights, I, the great ruler of Destruction, I, the great Lord of all dragons, Eragon shall merge with you.”
