Song Jian knelt on the ground with one knee, supporting his body with both hands, a sensation like branding iron constantly stimulating his nerves in his chest area, causing his body to tremble incessantly;
Waves of heat spread from his chest to his limbs; under his exposed skin, his veins radiated a dazzling red glow, as if blood was replaced by lava.
The burning sensation extended from his chest to every part of his body. Song Jian’s body simply couldn’t withstand such torment akin to being scorched. His skin began to curl, a large amount of water evaporated from his body, wisps of green smoke emerged, making it seem as if he would burst into flames any moment.
Song Jian’s Vitality Points dropped drastically. At first, only one or two points decreased every second, but soon it turned into three or four points, then seven or eight, and eventually dozens of points.
In just a few minutes, Song Jian’s Vitality Points had decreased by thousands. If it wasn’t for the SSS-grade mission reward, which increased his Vitality Points recovery speed by 500%, he would have already turned into a dried-up corpse.
Now, with his own and his equipment’s Vitality Points recovery speed, Song Jian could restore thirty-eight Vitality Points per second. The rate at which his Vitality Points were dropping was only thirty points per second. As a result, despite his weak appearance, his Vitality Points remained full.
Song Jian felt as if he had fallen into a pit of lava, and his consciousness began to blur. He didn’t know how much time had passed before a cooling sensation gradually spread from his chest, encompassing his entire body, as if he had gone from being in lava to being in a crystal-clear stream. The burning fire within his body was covered by the cooling sensation;
Song Jian’s body twisted like a cooked shrimp, his face distorted with pain, and his entire body looked like it had been soaked in water, damp all over. Beneath him lay a large white stain, a trace of his evaporated sweat.
“What’s happening to me?” Song Jian’s consciousness slowly recovered, and his memory had a brief blank. It took him a while to recall that he had come here chasing something, and then…
“Black Dragon!” Song Jian was shocked to remember, and immediately got up. Just a few dozen meters away, the huge monster lay gasping atop half a building, its body bound by dozens of gold-glowing ropes. The creature’s golden vertical pupils stared hatefully and angrily at Song Jian;
“Why are you glaring at me? It’s not like I hit you, there are other people to blame for your grievances…”
Song Jian suddenly remembered that the person who had beaten the Black Dragon into such a state was standing below, and couldn’t finish his sentence.
Opening his personal attributes interface, Song Jian saw a faint light emanating from the Hexagram Array Diagram on his model’s chest. One corner of the Hexagram Star was covered in red blood, looking like a red gem;
Song Jian was shocked. He tore open his chest and found that the Hexagram Array Diagram on his chest had indeed changed. A brilliant crystal, like a red gem, was now embedded in one corner of the Hexagram Array Diagram;
Also, the attributes of the original Hexagram Array Diagram had changed;
Night Slayer (Foundation), Category: Integrated Hexagram Array, Usage Effect 1: Boost host’s attack power by 30%; Usage Effect 2: Automatically absorb lunar essence during the night, enhancing host’s physical condition, can also absorb lunar essence in the real world; Usage Effect 3: Morphing into Dark Cloud (active), can turn into a dark cloud, immune to physical attacks, increasing 100% resistance, and fly while dealing (300+200%*Mental Strength) damage to targets within the range, additionally inflicting 50 fire damage per second. This skill is actively cast and can be dispelled early; (Morph into Dark Cloud lasts 15 minutes and has a cooldown of 60 minutes, with 3 Mental Strength consumed per minute.) Usage Effect 4: Can embed six talismans to further enhance strength. Number of embedded talismans: 1/6 Dragon Blood Talisman: Increases 200 Vitality Points limit, increases 100 Spirit Points limit, attacks deal an extra 30 Dragon Might damage, this damage is ineffective against creatures of higher rank than Black Dragon Albatrilaine;
“My attributes have increased so much?” A look of joy appeared on Song Jian’s face; the original attributes that had only been effective during the night were now unrestricted. The first effect’s attack power boost had been doubled from 15% to 30%. The second effect, which had been unable to absorb lunar essence in the real world, could now do so. The third effect had removed the restriction on only being active at night while also adding 50 fire damage per second. Most impressive of all, the previously vacant positions for six talismans now held a Dragon Blood Talisman, with an increase of 200 Vitality Points and 100 Spirit Points.
Originally, Song Jian’s Vitality Points were only 400, but now they had soared to 600, which was almost on par with a level five elite BOSS. Meanwhile, his original 70 Spirit Points also increased to 170.
“My strength has increased by at least a third compared to before; this is amazing!” Song Jian clenched his fists, feeling the power surging in his body constantly. His weakened body gradually recovered and grew stronger; “Human, you’re still alive?” Dierdeli’s surprised voice came from downstairs. Song Jian smiled faintly, activated the Morphing into Dark Cloud skill, and descended from the rooftop to the ground. The originally pitch-black dark cloud now emitted a faint red glow, giving off a dangerous feeling;
Landing on the ground, Song Jian dismissed the dark cloud state and bowed to Dierdeli, “Thank you for your assistance just now. I’m deeply grateful!”
Just moments ago, the Black Dragon was about to spew Vortex Fireball at Song Jian, but it was stopped by Dierdeli. Otherwise, he would have been reduced to ashes by now;
“God’s Chosen?” Dierdeli’s eyes lit up, recognizing Song Jian’s identity. She couldn’t help but shake her head in admiration, “You truly deserve the favor of the gods, daring to absorb the essence of the Black Dragon’s blood. Ordinary people who try would have been dead by now, but not only have you survived, you seem to have gained quite a few benefits. Have you gained the Black Dragon Bloodline?”
“The Black Dragon Bloodline? What is that?” Song Jian couldn’t help but ask in amazement;
“Legend has it that those who bathe in dragon blood gain a powerful body resistant to weapons, and can even change their bloodline to possess the Dragon Bloodline. Those with a strong concentration of the bloodline can even master some Dragon Language Magic, becoming powerful Dragon Sorcerers!” Dierdeli explained.
“Dragon Sorcerer, is that also a battle profession?” Song Jian asked excitedly;
“Of course! Oh, haven’t you become a professional yet? Would you like to learn about the Dragon Sorcerer profession? You’ve just bathed in the essence of the Black Dragon Albatrilaine, so maybe you have the qualifications to become a Dragon Sorcerer too!” Dierdeli said with a smile.
