178 The Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s Bloodline Awakens
Shen Fei’s entire body crashed into the forest, raising a cloud of dust and dirt. He groaned.
The old man’s figure flashed and landed on the edge of the forest and scanned the situation.
“Brat, have you given up resisting?” The old man’s lips curved into a cruel smile. “I’m telling you, I spent half a year developing this Soul-devouring Curse. Unless you have a strong soul power, there’s no way to get rid of it. You’re destined to only be material for me to tame my spirit beasts!”
The old man had begun moving his right hand before he finished his sentence. A black light condensed on his fingertip and quickly flew into the Three-clawed Golden Dragon. The Three-clawed Golden Dragon let out a wail. Its huge body trembled slightly, and gradually began to shrivel up.
It was obvious that the old man was using the Soul-devouring Curse to absorb the essence of the Three-clawed Golden Dragon.
!!
Whoosh!
The elder reached out to grab the Three-clawed Golden Dragon, trying to put it into his beast taming bag.
“Get lost!” In the next moment, an angry roar came as Shen Fei rushed out from the forest and sent an Iron Fist at the old man.
The old man’s expression changed as he immediately dodged to the side. However, Shen Fei had anticipated this. His right fist followed the momentum and turned, landing the attack on the old man’s torso.
Spurt!
Fresh blood spurted out, and the old man’s face turned pale as he staggered back a few steps.
“What…?” The old man’s expression froze, his face filled with astonishment. He completely did not foresee that Shen Fei’s attack speed would actually be so fast, let alone injure him!
Shen Fei did not hesitate as he once again charged forward with killing intent.
“B*stard! You’re looking for death!” The old man was furious, and his murky eyes emitted a cold chill.
He roared in anger, clenched his hands into claws, and a sharp force whizzed out, tearing the air apart. It was extremely fierce. Shen Fei charged forward and engaged in an intense battle with the old man.
Pow, bang, wham!
In the short exchange of blows, Shen Fei was continuously forced to retreat. In the end, he was forced into the depths of the forest by the black-robed elder.
Shen Fei had just steadied his body when the old man caught up to him. The old man’s strength was extremely terrifying. It was far from being comparable to a warrior of the primordial heaven realm. He was at least a fourth-star warrior.
“Little b*stard, die!” The old man’s lips curved into a sinister arc. He stomped on the ground and leaped up.
“Dark Ice Leopard, Wind Tornado Execution!” the old man growled. The Dark Ice Leopard’s body turned into a green ray of light. With a sharp and ear-piercing sonic boom, it arrived beside Shen Fei in the blink of an eye.
Shen Fei quickly summoned the Flame Owl. “Flame Owl, Flaming Bramble Inferno!”
“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl let out a strange cry and flapped its wings, releasing a ball of flames.
“What?” The elder frowned and immediately controlled the Dark Ice Leopard to dodge the fireball.
Sizzle, sizzle…
A conflagration erupted when the fireball met the ground, strong enough to burn the very air. In the next instant, the flames covered an area of several hundred meters, turning the landscape into an extremely hot sea of flames and fiery brambles.
The old man’s face was filled with fear as he hurriedly executed a technique to avoid the flames.
“Damn it!” The old man’s face was malevolent. He never thought that Shen Fei would be able to release such a terrifying skill. “You brat, just you wait! Once I obtain the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s vital essence and soul core, I’ll kill you with my own hands!” After leaving these harsh words, the old man fled the place and disappeared into the forest.
Not long after the old man left, Shen Fei’s body slowly floated into the air. His body was covered in a faint shroud of silver light, protecting his body like armor. Shen Fei went to the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s side and gently stroked it. The Three-clawed Golden Dragon was currently in a terrible state. Its life force was very weak, and it looked as if it was about to die.
“I’ll definitely save you!”
Shen Fei looked at the Three-clawed Golden Dragon with a determined expression. With a thought, he placed the spirit beast into the system’s inventory rather than the pocket realm. In the next moment, a light lit up within the system inventory, and an egg-sized crystal-clear object appeared.
Shen Fei’s eyes squinted as a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes. “Dragon Soul Fruit?!”
Shen Fei did not hesitate. He immediately took the fruit and fed it to the Three-clawed Golden Dragon. The Dragon Soul Fruit melted the moment it entered the dragon’s mouth and emitted a vast and powerful medicinal strength. It was like a surging river that instantly flowed into its spiritual core.
Then, a warm current filled the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s body. Under the effect of this warm current, the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s body recovered its strength, and grew even stronger. Its damaged meridians were healed bit by bit. In fact, even its cultivation talent was slowly recovering, becoming more outstanding.
Seeing this, Shen Fei’s heart was filled with joy. It was a blessing in disguise!
This continued on for about ten seconds before everything stopped. The Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s once dejected mood became more energetic.
“Roarrrr!” A moment later, an excited roar suddenly rang out. Then, the Three-clawed Golden Dragon opened its eyes. Its eyes were bloodshot and filled with bloodlust. It was a terrifying sight.
“Roar!”
The Three-clawed Golden Dragon saluted Shen Fei respectfully. At the same time, a dark golden scale appeared on its forehead, giving it a rather demonic appearance. Its body also grew more than two meters long. Its entire body turned dark, and the lines of its body moved elegantly as though it were a water dragon. The Three-clawed Golden Dragon was clad in a dark gold dragonscale armor that shimmered with a metallic luster. It was an awesome sight, especially the dark golden scale on its forehead, it gave it a wild charm.
[The Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s bloodline has been awakened!]
[Bloodline rank: High Yellow-tier!]
[Skill unlocked: Realm Eater]
Hearing the notification in his mind, Shen Fei was stunned. The Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s bloodline had actually reached the advanced yellow tier!
“Hahaha! That’s great!”
The Realm Eater skill was indeed extremely overpowering, but it required a large amount of true essence to maintain.
“It’s so powerful!” Shen Fei’s eyes were filled with shock as he felt the vast amount of true energy surging through his bond with the dragon. Following the increase in Shen Fei’s strength, his cultivation efficiency had also increased significantly.
After that, Shen Fei brought the Three-clawed Golden Dragon and the Flame Owl into the foggy forest. He wanted to see why the Three-clawed Golden Dragon had brought him here.
‘Could there be something in this forest?’
As they walked into the forest, they saw thick, towering trees that blocked out the sun. It was dark and gloomy, giving off a depressing feeling.
“Roar!… Chirp! Screech!”
All kinds of birds and magical beasts were wreaking havoc in the forest, and from time to time, soul-shaking cries could be heard. The environment here was extremely harsh. Ordinary Beastmasters would not dare to come here at all. Anyone who stepped into this place, be it humans or beasts, would die in the mouths of these magical creatures.
“Although these magical beasts are brutal, their strength is relatively weak. I don’t think the Three-clawed Golden Dragon was the one who led me here,” Shen Fei muttered to himself. He always felt that things were not that simple.
Suddenly, he sensed something…
