Temporal Pearls

Chapter 179: First Might Greatness

Seth created a bubble with ten layers of mind forced to extricate himself from the effect of the dimension. He immediately felt the difference and he also felt his actual body. It was actually due to the Aura Tome in his body that his aura was resisting being siphoned completely.

Another effect that was happening was that the Tome was absorbing the dragon's aura and converting it to his aura and then fueling Seth.

This was in a way, that the bones of the dragon pulled Seth's Aura and the Tome pulled back and got them back and absorbed the dragon's aura, at the same time converting the dragon's aura to make sure Seth had more reserve.

As Seth looked up at the dragon, her eyes made him have more understanding of what was happening.

It wasn't what he felt, but rather they were both trying to convert each other's aura. However, Seth was losing because his mind will eventually be corrupted with moon smoke and that will be over for him.

"River!~

Seth used River Stone and immediately from one corner of the dimension, a thick flood of red flowed out, and under Seth's control, it spread and some flowed toward him and wrapped him off.

That gave him more connection with his body as he hid behind the red liquid away from the Smoke Dimension.

Ding

[Support Tome Aura Conversion]

"Yes!"

The moment Seth protected his mind, Tome can now focus on converting the dragon. And immediately, Seth's body pulled in all the aura of the dragon bones and that made the pieces from every location yanked toward him and shrunk.

That also changed the surrounding land as the skeletal bones bulged out to the surface and they decreased in size.

Not only that, Seth in the dimension spread the red and forced it to engulf everywhere and reduce the dragon's influence.

~Dragon Sacrifice~

Seth heard the dragon say, not only him, even the Tome stopped converting the aura and released a force of aura and engulfed Seth's real body.

For 10 km, all Monster and abhorrent monsters exploded and the sand and gravel floated up before they disintegrated into fine dust.

Seth's attire was shredded but due to aura force and halo protection he was okay and the attire healed back.

This was the result of the dragon bones releasing so much pressure energy at the same time. While also in the dimension, the dragon glowed so intensely and the light obliterated everything, including Seth's body.

Moments later, he appeared naked with no attire, tired but the lines on his body that showed the Graviton Effect and Gawee Dots were now glowing with silver light.

[You have died by dragon sacrifice]

[Your Halo became stronger]

[You have attained Level 1 halo]

Another thing was the Graviton lines that came from his hand, now ended on the back of his palm sketching a full moon on the right palm and a crescent moon on the left palm.

The Gawee Dots were also glowing and each one is a loop showing different stages of the moon.

[You are being tainted 1%]

~Your mind is the strongest I have felt among humans~

Luana said

Seth wasn't feeling good, every death made him clothe to being controlled and possessed by this moon dragon. But after he looked at her, he found that she was now as small as him.

~You are weak too~

Seth said.

~Yes ~

But Seth frowned because he was already able to see that he was wrong. Yes, she was weak but it was night and the moonlight above was nourishing the bones. And that means more power to her.

But then he looked up at his Halo. It was now level 1. So before it was level 0. What was the benefit now? Focusing he saw that the Graviton lines and Gawee Dots were absorbing some light energy from the surroundings but there was this layer that was trying hard to purify the energy.

To understand fully what was happening he knew he just had to look at the moon dragon's eyes and he did.

The light energy was coming from Luana and in them were its own possessive properties. But his Level 1 Halo was purifying those properties to the lowest possible.

Without the Level 1 halo, Seth will have been severely affected by now. But it was just about time.

The dragon flew up and then breathed down. Seth immediately thought about his cloak and it appeared. However, he found the lines expanded and the Gawee dots grew bigger.

"Shit!"

By calling back his cloak, he consumed a great deal of mental energy and that reduced his defence against the dimensions and became susceptible to whatever infected him. But he has no regrets.

"Pulse!"

The pressure slammed the dragon down. Blood splattered. He thought about calling back the Red Signature stone but then he refrained from that. But use his basic Red control and manipulate the blood to him.

"Pulse!"

The moment the dragon healed, he again attacked with no reservation. And he confirmed using the skill consumed less energy than summoning back his destroyed items.

He didn't forget to collect the blood.

"Pulse!"

"Pulse!"

"Pulse!"

With every attack, Seth's real body was taken control of the skeleton and he was now infusing his aura and making it his own with the help of the Aura Tome.

At the same time, in the dimension, Seth took control of the glowing lines and Gawee Dots. They were now very dim and he was expelling the contaminated energy off him.

Suddenly, the whole dimension became dark. This also happened in the outside world where for 10 km, all the moonlight that shone vanished and was absorbed by Luana's skeleton.

That fuelled Luana to the extreme and Seth felt an overwhelming oppressive feeling as the dimension lit again.

Luana was now her actual size but what was different was that her seemingly soft scales were hard and reflective, her eyes were more mature and they made people comprehend things faster than before to the point of confusion!

Seth understood. At that moment, she had shifted all her power and activated Dragon Might.

The whole dimension has thinned out and shaken by her presence but eventually, it hardened and contained her. Seth Dragon Halo Pulse was useless now.

Not only that, his whole body froze, only his heart that was beating after 3 seconds as if it was ordered to.

Dragon Might was a terrifying skill that dragons use, it is the combination of aura, pressure, elemental attack and also a showcase of superiority in a way that all beings that were inferior to them feel reverence and subservient.

But that also triggered something in Seth.

[First Might Activated]

This time it wasn't anything that happened but rather, a thin layer of indestructible energy outlined on Seth's body. That dimmed the whole lines and dots and made Seth's bodily function return to normal.

~Dragon Might~

Seth said.

~You have power similar to us. Futile. Now submit~

Luana said

Seth was thrown back and he hit the wall of the dimension and was pinned there. That was her pressure attacking, and then a thick translucent light expand from her body that shook the dimension and also made Seth's heart beat faster

~You don't want to do that. I clashed with an Ancient dragon and survived. That clash obliterated a cliff. Trust me, Dragon Might is the worst form of attack on me~

Seth said.

~I clashed with Roana Prada and survived. Do you think you can take me down? You are spelling your doom as this might lead to your complete death~

He added.

~Futile effort. Do you know what ancient is? Roana Prada is dead, I felt it. Human, you can't scare me~

The translucent energy was moving slowly and that was the form of the Dragon Might and against any other creature, it would dominate not just their body but their mind and spirit.

~You don't understand. My Might is greater than yours. And when they clashed, yours and you will be purged and that means I will lose my price.~

Clash of Mights was always a bad thing, he only experienced it one time but he can infer from that and drive to a conclusion.

Luana found that insulting and forced the Dragon Might to expand faster than normal and it slammed at Seth's body.

Kooop!!!

Sound and light disappeared!

~I warned you. But I guess I was wrong too. My might knew exactly what I want and it didn't destroy you~

Now, Seth owned the dimension, his whole mental force encased it and changed its nature. Luana was suppressed and Seth appeared outside, in the void. It was a darkness that pushed to put pressure on Seth's mental body but First Might protected him.

All Seth did was refrain from looking in the darkness but only watched the First Might and his Mental Force enveloped the Smoke Moon Dimension and shrunk it to a meter size ball.
