Chapter 182: Slaying the Giant Dragon
It was hard to describe the feeling of that moment.
That golden aurora dazzled Chen Ran’s eyes. The void dragon, which was about to complete its evolution, fell heavily into the field. The aurora pierced through the void dragon’s head, with a brilliant spray of blood.
The third eye on the void dragon’s forehead flashed with a brilliant light. It had just completed its tenth-tier evolution when it suffered the most severe blow. The heavily injured it did not die on the spot. The void dragon, which had lost consciousness in a frenzy, struggled and writhed, roaring unwillingly.
Without Eris’s restraint, Chen Ran and Azshara could not hold back the behemoth at all. They let go and quickly fled into the distance, to avoid being affected by the crazed void dragon.
A rain of blood fell from the sky, rustling, and soaking Chen Ran’s clothes. The void dragon, lost in its frenzy, was releasing its last bit of life force, wanting to take everything around it with it. Chen Ran suddenly found Eris lying on the ground on the other side. The blow just now seemed to have exhausted all her strength. She was kneeling weakly on the ground, seemingly unable to move. And the void dragon’s body was constantly falling in that direction…
The void dragon, with its huge fleshy wings, had become even larger than before, a black mass that covered the sky and the sun, looming over Eris. The void dragon’s eyes had already turned white, and its voice was getting smaller and smaller. After a while of frenzy, it finally quieted down and fell forward…
A figure suddenly rushed in front of Eris and picked her up. Chen Ran gritted his teeth and looked at the void dragon’s huge body also pressing down on him. He ran for more than ten steps with all his might, and finally, holding Eris, he narrowly dodged the mountain-like pressure.
The moment he was safe, Chen Ran looked at the unconscious, blood-soaked Eris, a look of relief on his face.
Azshara ran over at this time, looked at the unconscious Eris, bent down to check the situation, and looked at Chen Ran with a worried expression. “How is she, sister?”
“Don’t worry, her life is not in danger,” Chen Ran said, extending his hand and using the Hand of Silver to heal Eris’s over-exerted and injured body. He comforted, “She was too reckless, completely disregarding the limits of her body’s endurance. She actually wanted to die with that big worm. Don’t you know, if something happened to you, how heartbroken I would be?”
Chen Ran repaired the damaged or broken meridians in Eris’s body. Under the nervous gaze of Azshara, he finished all this. It was only when there were no more problems with Eris’s body that Chen Ran finally straightened his sore back and let out a long sigh of relief. “It’s a good thing I was here, otherwise she would have been crippled.” Looking at the worried Azshara at the side, he said with a smile, “It’s okay now. For now, let her have a good sleep.”
Chen Ran gently stroked the few strands of messy hair on Eris’s face, which were stained with dragon’s blood, and tucked them behind her ear.
Azshara, at the side, saw that there were no more problems, and the look in her eyes also relaxed a lot. “Big sister Eris is so great. This battle was basically all thanks to her stabilizing the situation. She is the true warrior of the Amazons.” At this, Azshara’s eyes were filled with respect.
Chen Ran looked at Azshara’s expression and couldn’t help but laugh. He, who was sitting on the ground, pulled her into his arms. His thieving hands were taking advantage of her on one hand, and on the other, he said, “The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Eris is great, but your performance was not bad either. When you are about the same age as her, I believe you will definitely do the same. You are all the greatest warriors of the clan.”
Looking into Chen Ran’s sincere eyes, Azshara’s bright eyes looked at it for a long time. The corner of her mouth curled up, and she smiled knowingly. “I will work hard and strive to surpass big sister Eris!”
She puffed out her full chest and said proudly, “It’s really amazing. I’ve only known you for a few months, and I’ve actually broken through again. When I killed that void dragon just now, my wild power has already reached the strength of the seventh tier. Could it really be the effect of those seeds in my body?” Chen Ran smiled wryly.
However, for Azshara to be able to break through again in such a short period of time, Chen Ran was happy for her.
As for now, it was time to clean up the battlefield.
Now, Chen Ran was covered in dragon’s blood. It felt sticky, and there was also a burning, alluring feeling. As it soaked in, it gradually merged into his body. Chen Ran gradually felt a special state.
Dragon’s Blessing!
There was a legend that a dragon slayer, as long as they were soaked in enough true dragon’s blood, could obtain a certain special ability of that dragon. For example, the blood of a black dragon could bring a very strong magic resistance and strengthen the body; the blood of a fire dragon could bring fire resistance and enhance fire power; the blood of an ice dragon could bring ice resistance and enhance ice power. As for the bloodline of a void dragon, it should enhance the affinity for space and increase a little bit of constitution.
The special constitution brought by the void dragon seemed to be very average, but the whole fresh dragon corpse was right in front of him. If he used it well, he should be able to master a certain amount of spatial power…
For this successfully evolved giant dragon, Chen Ran would not waste this precious material.
Chen Ran had also been blessed by a disaster this time. With Eris’s final burst, he had killed an ancient giant dragon that had just advanced. The original void sub-dragon, after all, had an impure bloodline, and its power could not be compared to a real dragon. But the death of a tenth-tier evolution could burn away the impure bloodline in its body and restore a truly pure bloodline.
Now, the void dragon, the large half of its snake body had withered, like a layer of dead skin wrapped around its body. Its power had completed its advancement, but the evolution of its limbs was only halfway through. Only half of the ancient giant dragon’s body, including its fleshy wings, had appeared. It, which originally had no hands and feet, also had a pair of sharp claws, but now they were just hanging there weakly.
At this time, a large amount of fresh red, high-grade blood essence was in the air. The giant dragon that had just completed its tenth-tier evolution would naturally not treat him badly.
Feeling the life energy that was madly being sucked into his body, Chen Ran felt extremely comfortable. At the same time, he felt a special power in his blood, which, influenced by his Dragon’s Blessing, had generated a new ability for him…
Learned Skill: “Instantaneous Movement.”
Instantaneous Movement: Obtained the life force of an ancient void dragon, obtaining the ability to freely transfer within a certain range. The distance increases with the increase of level. The current maximum teleportation distance is 2 meters.】
The addition of this skill immediately made Chen Ran stunned. He had never thought that he could learn a brand new skill…
This newly learned special skill was not one of his priest skills, but a completely new special skill. And this skill was also very practical for Chen Ran. It was definitely a life-saving tool, and its practicality was completely incomparable to the somewhat useless “Soul Bead” skill he had learned for the first time.
With the addition of this special skill, Chen Ran even forgot the excitement of leveling up. When he came back to his senses, he found that he had barely reached level 49 in the huge amount of blood essence, a little over 1%…
There were too many things to do now. Chen Ran threw away the extra thoughts in his mind and began to divide the valuable parts of the void dragon.
This dead dragon had a lot of treasures on it. Dragon scales, dragon tendons, dragon teeth, dragon horns, dragon blood, and dragon heart were all high-grade goods among the purple materials. And Chen Ran’s spatial ring, “Endless Void,” was a good place to keep them fresh. Especially in the current world, where could you see a real giant dragon?
But Chen Ran did not consider those things at the first moment. His attention was focused on the void dragon’s “third eye,” the existence of the dragon crystal.
The dragon crystal was equivalent to the status of an ordinary magical beast’s magic core. It was the hub of their power. For this void dragon to evolve, it had to first concentrate the life force in its body into the new dragon soul in its brain. When the energy condensation was complete, it would feed back to the body, shedding the snake body’s organization and becoming a real giant dragon’s body. But this void dragon had only completed a small half before it was killed. This dragon soul had gathered most of the essence of the void dragon.
With special refining, Chen Ran took down the washbasin-sized, flat, blue-gray transparent crystal soul and was stunned when he observed it.
Dark gold grade material!
Chen Ran’s mouth was now round enough to fit an egg.
Although he was mentally prepared, it was the first time he had obtained such a special and precious material in this world, and he couldn’t help but be pleasantly surprised…
In the first instance, Chen Ran began to purify this dark gold grade dragon crystal again, and at the same time, maintained its best use shape.
Before long, a brand new, eight-sided, palm-sized void dragon crystal stone appeared in Chen Ran’s hand.
Although Chen Ran was not very familiar with the mastery of spatial power, and there were not many skills he could use, he believed that if he collected more information in this area in the future, Chen Ran would definitely be able to bring out the greatest effect of this thing.
On this day, Chen Ran was very busy.
Except for the least valuable dragon meat and dragon bones, Chen Ran had completely stored the other things in his spatial ring. And with the series of good materials that this void dragon had collected in the cave, it was not in vain for Chen Ran’s hard work these past few months.
Until it was night, Chen Ran had not rested for a day. He cleaned his body in the spring water, changed into a dry set of clothes, and then came to the cave entrance to rest.
Eris had just woken up not long ago.
Today, she had been too powerful. If it weren’t for her just-right blow at the end, even if it were a little later, and with several times more men, they would definitely not have been a match for the tenth-tier void giant dragon. Eris’s spirit was not very good. When she had broken through the giant dragon’s head, it was also when the giant dragon’s dragon crystal was acting in her body. She had received a huge energy impact, but it seemed that there were no special side effects. It was just that her spirit was a little bad. She estimated that she would be able to truly recover after a few more days of rest.
At the same time, Chen Ran was surprised to find that after this battle, Eris had also miraculously broken through, reaching the astonishing ninth tier of wild power.
Although her spirit was not very good, Eris was in a good mood.
“Although it’s a little incredible, I have indeed completed a new breakthrough. Perhaps the existence of the tenth tier is no longer so far away. In a few years, I have the confidence to break through,” Eris said, her charming peach-blossom eyes sparkling.
Wild and confident, this was the best interpretation of Eris.
