Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 785 - The Troublesome Tower Energy

Arthur on the other hand was pretty busy dealing with something he never expected.

"How can I upgrade my pearl energy?"

He used to level up his dragonair energy and spiritual energy in two different ways till now. Yet he never upgraded the golden pearl.

Only Gege helped in its expansion once before, yet he never dealt with direct upgrades like this time.

'I believe you should recall what your golden energy is formed of,' the golden dragon said before adding, 'so your upgrade path should be either one of them or mixing the two together.'

"That's... hard," Arthur couldn't help but feel hesitant, "I could upgrade my spiritual energy easily, but the dragonair's ascension path is really tough."

'Ding! I assume you can start with your spiritual energy first,' the system said, 'Ding! Observe closely and try to come up with a theory to use later.'

Arthur took a deep breath before he closed his eyes. He knew this was like throwing a rock in the air and hoping for it to fly and not fall.

It was subjected to luck, pure and rare luck and nothing else.

"Let's do it," he started regulating his breaths first before he let his consciousness dissipate deeply inside his body. He went directly towards his golden pearl.

For now it was gaining enough energy to call it an apple. Yet he knew the size didn't even matter. The purity of the energy stored inside was on a totally different level than his other two forms of energy.

"Now let's take a walk," he muttered to himself while starting to instigate the golden energy to move. "It's all up to you now, Gege," he didn't forget to alarm Gege to be ready for what was coming.

And just as he started to push the energy outside the golden pearl, he felt like the connection between the outside energy coming from the tower and his golden pearl was severed at this moment.

He felt a strong repelling force that came from the tower after that, yet he didn't yield. He stubbornly kept himself extremely focused while pushing his golden energy all over his body.

He wanted to push it through his lower meridians first, but he was surprised by the great amount there that even his entire meridian network got saturated in no time.

And that made any attempt to push the golden energy further much harder than he initially thought.

"Damn! Then go around my entire body!" he didn't hesitate to improvise. If his meridians weren't enough, then he would use the other vessels inside his body.

His veins were the paths his dragonair energy used to pass through. Just as he diverted part of such energy there, he found out that it worked.

His veins weren't normal at all. After all he acquired his dragonair energy far earlier than his spiritual energy. Also his dragonair level was much higher than his cultivation base in terms of strength.

So when his golden energy passed through his veins, he was surprised to find out that his veins could accommodate a larger amount of this energy than his meridians.

And that wasn't the only surprise he got.

When his energy passed through his veins, they finally started to form a complete circle. It seemed that his two networks of vessels were complimenting each other for his golden energy to circulate.

And when the first circle was done, he felt a slight tremor in his body that made him feel more confident and stronger.

He watched part of the golden energy dissipating outside these vessels and soaking his muscles, bones, and even organs.

Everything inside his body was now baptized by this golden energy. That made him feel the changes happening inside his body and be proud of them.

His body was getting stronger, yet this wasn't the end of the story.

The golden energy then started to emit pulses from time to time. After some observation he noticed that with each ten full circles the golden energy would pulsate.

"What are you trying to do with these pulses?" he couldn't help but wonder when the fifth pulse came. This time he started to closely follow this pulse wave, and he was shocked when he found out where they were heading.

"My soul sea... that's amazing!" he spotted his deeply hidden soul sea getting the benefits of this golden energy. Each pulse seemed to carry a lot of spiritual power that his soul needed.

He tried to enter his soul sea at this moment. He wanted to check on things inside and observe closely the changes that these pulses were making.

Yet the moment he tried to do so he was fiercely blocked by a repulsive shield that was formed around his soul.

"How can this be...?!!" he tried more than once but each time he failed. At last he had to drop doing that, hoping these changes would make his soul stronger and bring more benefits to him.

At the same time, Gege was having a hard time dealing with the excessive influx of the highly purified energy inside the tower.

At first she diverted this energy towards the roots of her garden world. The garden world was already her body, and getting it stronger meant she could grow more powerful.

Yet after a few minutes she was astonished to see that even her hungry body couldn't accommodate such immense power.

That created a deep dilemma for her. She knew she couldn't tolerate such a growing amount of fierce power inside her body for too long or else she would definitely get hurt or even worse.

"Should I help you then?" she turned her gaze upon the sacred tree of mirrors, asking her for help.

And the tree didn't deny such a generous offer of course.

Yet after a few more minutes, even the tree itself couldn't help in taking all the extra energy inside her. In fact she could only absorb small pieces from time to time, leaving most of this energy inside Gege's body.

'This won't work,' she started to be terrified of the odds she was facing. 'I should use it then.'

The next moment she started to guide part of this power back to Arthur's golden pearl. She watched him during his ascension a couple of times already.
