Omni-Mastery

Chapter 243 - Impact



Chapter 243 - Impact

The 'Dragon Stomach' ability seemed to have sprouted out of the little changes my digestive organs had, making it possible reserve nutrients enough for one month's worth which seemed to be quite convenient.

After all, if you no longer had to worry about eating during long time gate clearing or repeated grinding, you would be able to save quite a bit of time, not to mention that I would virtually no longer fear starvation…

The body change was also the reason for the 'Dragon Scales's emergence!Retracting or invoking the 'Dragon Scales' ability had allowed me to find out that the source of the scales was actually my bones…

Which meant that my bone cells were actually the ones that changed to the greatest degree, turning from just an inner armor into a retractable outer armor while doing an even greater job as an inner armor!

Finally, the 'Dragon Blood' ability seemed to be some sort of berserk boost, but as I already had a passive +10% effectiveness of stats, it didn't seem like much but it was still possible to use it to get an extra edge at a close matched battle.

Not to mention that it might become more powerful after the ability increases its grade.

Unfortunately, while it was good that it would grow passively with time, there was no way to level it up according to certain actions like 'Omni-Mastery', which obviously had something to do with the fact that it was a racial innate ability.

'Maybe some special conditions would allow a faster grade elevation…'

For now, all I could do was guess for now… And of course to start picking up the pace for my destination…

`~~`~~`~~`

Roarrr!

Back in the 'Green Earth' village, the sound of the earth shaking dragon roar caused a wave of worried confusion to go around the villagers, but they were soon calmed down by the chief who no longer coughed so often…

The chief looked in the distance from the direction that the roar came from as if he was showing his acknowledgement to someone.

"Grandpa, what was that just now…? I know you said not to worry, but I'm curious…"

Chloe, the chief's adopted granddaughter walked close to him as she had a curious and playful expression on her face.

"It's a friend, one that we both owe so much to…"

"Oh! Could it be that older brother that saved you from those evil attackers…?"

"You are so smart, yet you are still naive like the old me, back then I was almost going to detonate my sealed elemental vessel to use the last bit of energy to take care of the bandits before taking my last breath… But once he appeared, not only had he stopped my desperate attempt, but he also gave me another chance and somehow turned our enemies into helpers…"

The old looking but energetic village chief muttered in a low voice as he patted the playful girl.

"What do you say grandpa, I couldn't hear you…"

"I was just praising you for being so smart! As expected of my granddaughter!"

"Ehehehe…"

'Just wait for me, I will surely recover my strength as soon as possible and try to reach a height that's enough to repay your help!'

With this resolution in mind, the old chief sat down in the same place taking a cross legged position as the granddaughter mimicked him as well…

`~~`~~`~~`

"Sect Master, it seems that the source of the sound is actually quite close from here…"

"That's what I guessed, but something seems to be quite wrong… Just how could several phenomena such as the recent bright lightning and the legendary dragon roar happen in such a small span of time as well as in such a restricted amount of space?!"

"Master!"

"What's wrong my apprentice?"

"I have identified someone who seems to be coming from the same direction that the dragon roar came out from…"

"Why aren't you speaking then?"

The white haired man stroked his long beard in curiosity, just what made his apprentice this perplexed…

"He seems to be the same youth who you told us to keep an eye on…"

"Oh!"

The curiosity on the white haired man's face became more of a playful surprise before it started getting a bit serious…

"Master, He can't be the cause of both phenomena… Right?"

"hmmm, no. he can't be the cause of both neither can he be lucky enough to witness both and benefit from them… It's more believable that he might have obtained the benefits of one while he was just lucky enough to pass unscathed by the other…"

"Phew… I knew it, he is probably just a person who used all his luck to get a simple benefit after all, and he couldn't wait to show it off in the village!"

It seemed as if the apprentice would have suffered a bit of a setback if he really knew what happened, as he was almost shaken by his own assumption…

"What are you standing here for? Since we were able to cross paths so soon, it's indeed likely for him to be going for the annual joint meeting, you should go invite him to join us as the destination is one…"

The white haired man said to the other man beside his apprentice who reported to him at the beginning…

"Yes Master!"

"As expected, you are planning to have him join us so we can ask him to deliver us whatever benefit he has gained from either chances of his, right master?"

"Silly apprentice, of course not, fate isn't something that comes and goes this easily, according to what we heard of him, that youth should be a blooming talent, we should befriend him so that we can add him to our ranks in case he is heading for the meeting to join a sect…"

"Right! Right! I guess I was being a bit shortsighted, hahaha"

"Sigh…"

The white haired man sighed as he lamented how this apprentice of his had so much talent, yet he still wasn't able to inherit his wisdom…

`~~`~~`~~`

'Eh?'

Just as I was about to move with a speed close to 1 Mach, I was stopped by a white robed man who seemed to be waving towards me…

"Fellow brother!"

Approaching me on his horse, the guy called out to me

"Errr?"

"Fellow brother, please wait a bit if you have a second to spare…"

just as he was a few seconds away, he called again as if to make sure I won't just dismiss him…

'Is he here to sell me something…?'

Remembering how some persistent sellers in reality who would always call out to you more than once to check something of their goodies, for a second, I believed he might be in the same line of business…

"How can I help you…?"

"Thank you fellow brother, it's actually quite simple, I just wanted to ask if you were also heading for the annual joint meeting?"

'Oh?'

Although the situation seemed to be as simple as him being a person on his way to the annual meeting as well, but...

"Why do you ask exactly?"

'I don't really smell like a person who would go there as well…'
