Chapter 1037 Divine Beast Arts

Shortly after, Leon and Nightingale started to ascend their way back to the surface. As that happened, Leon casually glanced at Nightingale, who flew without a problem on her own.

"Despite becoming an earth dragon, you've already fully grasped the ability to fly, huh?"

"Yes, my Lord. It felt strangely natural to me," Nightingale replied.

Just like Awakeners could use celestial energy upon reaching the Celestial Realm and gaining celestial veins, Divine Beasts also have something similar.

Upon reaching the Divine Beast Realm, Divine Beasts could also refine the energy of heaven and earth.

Leon recalled that Divine Beasts also relied on the superior divine energy like all divine practitioners back in the Divine Realm.

However, in a lacking environment like Gaia, the spirit energy level was far from adequate to refine divine energy.

Despite that, Nightingale could still fly just fine. Evidently, her dragon body was relying on another energy to fly, celestial energy perhaps.

Furthermore, she learned how to use it without any divine beast arts.

"You don't know any divine beast arts, do you? Nightingale?" Leon casually inquired.

"Divine beast arts…?" Nightingale shook her head and asked, "What are those, my Lord?"

"You don't even know what divine beast arts are?" Leon glanced at Nightingale with doubt.

"I'm afraid not, my Lord. Forgive me for being ignorant," Nightingale shook her head and said.

"How unexpected…" Leon rubbed his forehead with surprise.

"If you don't know any divine beast arts despite opening your Wisdom Gate, it must mean your past several generations of ancestors hadn't learned any divine beast arts either."

Unfortunately, Leon did not know many divine beast arts. And the few he did know were not suitable for earth dragons. They were only suitable for Snow Tigers.

Thinking about Snow Tigers, Leon could not help but wonder how the four Snow Tigers that he raised were doing in the Divine Realm now that they were on their own.

They must be lonely and mourning his death. But then again, they might be rejoicing instead. In truth, Leon did not know what the four Snow Tigers were feeling.

He might have been the one who raised them, but he was also the one who killed their mother.

"Would you like me to learn some suitable divine beast arts to teach that earth dragon?" Maya suddenly contacted Leon through their spiritual connection.

'You know some divine beast arts for earth dragons, Maya? Did you recover more of your memories?' Leon asked with surprise.

"Yeah, just some of them, thanks to the large amount of spirit energy you fed me last time," Maya replied.

After recovering from his surprise, Leon learned a few divine beast arts from Maya, all of which were very useful for Nightingale and the rest of the Black Dragon Clan.

The first divine beast art he learned from Maya was the Divine Beast Transformation Art.

Through this divine beast art, a divine beast could transform their body into a humanoid form, which was also the optimum form for combat.

It was also the superior version of the Hundred Beast Transformation Art.

It wasn't just a special skill but also a cultivation method. By compressing the massive body of a divine beast into a small human form, their mass becomes so dense that their strength and defense improve by a large margin without losing their flexibility.

Such a method could be considered magic to mortals, albeit only if mastered. The transformation process is slow and gradual otherwise.

The second divine beast art Leon learned was Divine Dragon Force Art.

Divine Dragon Force Art allows dragons to fuse the energy of heaven and earth with their unique dragon aura to create dragon force, which can then be used in various ways such as body enhancement, executing battle skills, and more.

Dragon force was essential for Divine Beast-level dragons to fight toe-to-toe with other divine beasts and celestials or even overpower them.

It was a dragon's weapon, an essential tool to exert the true might of dragons.

'Thanks, Maya.'

"Don't mention it."

After Leon learned the two divine beast arts from Maya, he contemplated carefully before transmitting both of them to Nightingale.

"My Lord, these two divine beast arts…. I don't deserve them. I haven't done anything worthy of receiving these two incredible divine beast arts," Nightingale said as she paused mid-flight and looked at Leon with astonishment and shock.

She had no prior knowledge of divine beast arts. Thus, after learning of their potential, she was shocked beyond belief.

After mastering these two divine beast arts, just how powerful would she become?

Nightingale's eyes brightened with anticipation.

"Consider it as receiving your rewards in advance. I'll be taking some of your True Dragon Origin Blood later, and you will continue to follow me from here onwards. You won't refuse, right?"

"Of course not, my Lord!"

There was no way Nightingale would refuse the chance to follow her lord around.

Rather than being rewarded for protection service, just being allowed to follow her lord around was a reward in and of itself for her.

Only by following her lord around would she have opportunities to earn even more rewards from her lord.

On the other hand, it was convenient for Leon to have a Divine Beast-level bodyguard and mount around. He wouldn't have to make detours when encountering opponents far above his level.

"Alright, quickly familiarize yourself with the two divine beast arts. It would be great if you could master the Divine Beast Transformation Art."

"Understood, my Lord!"

Shortly after Nightingale noted Leon's instruction, they resumed soaring out of the abyss and reaching the surface.

"How's the situation, Master?" Cindertail quickly asked.

"The threat from the abyss has been dealt with. You can thank Nightingale for that," Leon said coolly without any intention of claiming her credits as his own.

"Though, it is hard to say whether any new threat would emerge from the abyss in the future."

Dawnchaser and the other Paragon-level Golden Suannis were pleasantly surprised as they glanced at Nightingale. Then, they shifted their gazes back to Leon with amazement and awe.

Supreme Leader Cindertail's master was truly unfathomable for being able to summon a true Divine Beast-level Earth Dragon.
