Dragon Who Controls Time-Chapter 5

Illusory River

If it was a magic gem, he needed a substitute with the same magic power… Garen slowly walked towards this diamond-shaped white crystal and did not act rashly for the time being.

Garen chose it not only because he was attracted, but also because of the ice-type magic power contained in it.

Every breath the dragon took would absorb the elemental energy in the world. Most of the elemental energy would wash through the dragon’s body and dissipate, promoting the growth of the dragon’s scales and flesh. However, there would still be some remaining stored in their bodies that could react with some unique substances in the dragon’s body and be spat out as a killing weapon when needed, which was the dragon breath.

Therefore, the dragon breath was not a pure spell ability or spell-like ability. Ordinary spell resistance could not be effective on the dragon breath, and it was a powerful attack method that was very difficult to counterattack.

Not to mention those good dragons and gem dragons, the other dragons that belonged to the same evil dragon faction as the White Dragon were ranked in the order of average strength of the races: Red Dragon, Blue Dragon, Green Dragon, and Black Dragon. Their breaths were fire, lightning, poisonous fog, and acid, respectively.

These four dragon species lived in volcanoes, sand seas, forests, and abysses.

The White Dragon living in the ice plain was the last. It was ranked at the bottom and was also the dragon that had granted the title of Dragon Slayer to adventurers the most.

The White Dragon’s breath was an ice-type magic condensation.

Frost Dragon Breath, Ice Dragon Breath, or Snow Dragon Breath… Different places would have different names according to different habits, but the meaning was the same.

Garen paced on the spot and frowned (the curved dragon skin above the dragon eyes was the dragon eyebrows).

“Use the breath to spit out an ice crystal that’s identical to the white crystal. At the same time, I have to adjust the density of my magic power to prevent the White Dragon Mother from discovering any clues…”

These did not seem to be things that a baby dragon could do.

“I can only take an ordinary gem without magic power?” Garen was a little unwilling.

Then, his gaze was firm as he opened his dragon mouth.

Just like how fish were born to swim, as long as he instinctively controlled it, Garen successfully spat out a Frost Dragon Breath.

“How will I know if I don’t try?”

“Even if I don’t succeed now, there will always be a chance in the future.”

If she knew that Garen was so concerned about her treasures, the White Dragon Mother would definitely curse at him for being unfilial.

“I’ll treat it as accumulating experience and practicing.”

That was what she thought, but as the baby dragons grew older, the White Dragon Mother’s guard would only grow deeper.

Therefore, Garen still hoped to succeed this time.

Garen took a deep breath and stretched out his dragon claw, spitting out frost. Then, by adjusting the rhythm of his breathing, the degree of opening and closing of his dragon mouth, the amount of magic power he sent out, and other methods, he controlled the frost to condense into the shape he wanted.

Because the White Dragon Mother would return at any time, Garen’s mind quickly spun until it was almost smoking.

Under such circumstances, Garen was pleasantly surprised to discover that he seemed to have an abnormal talent in subtle control of magic power, far surpassing the talent of an ordinary dragon.

Under his control, the magic energy that should have been wild was surprisingly obedient and tamed.

This was originally thought to be the most difficult challenge, but it was not as difficult as Garen had thought.

His technique quickly improved. The frost in his mouth was concentrated in an area. From the initial irregular ice crystals to the decent rhombus shape, it only took a few minutes.

“So I’m a little genius!” Garen stopped his actions and took a deep breath as he studied the diamond-shaped ice crystal in his claw.

It already looked the same as the white crystal, but the degree of penetration was slightly inferior. At first glance, it was the same, but if one looked carefully, one would discover the difference.

The dragon claw crushed it forcefully. Garen opened his mouth and ate it, unwilling to waste it. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

He ran to the entrance of the nest and looked out. There was still no sign of the White Dragon Mother anywhere.

Garen was at the entrance of the nest. From time to time, he would look out and slowly adjust the transparency of the ice crystal.

During this period, the dragon sister, Hill, moved her tail and showed signs of waking up. Garen went over and swung the dragon hammer again, causing Hill’s eyes to roll back and faint.

A few minutes later, Garen looked at the diamond-shaped transparent ice crystal at the tip of the claw with a satisfied expression.

He looked out of the nest and immediately ran into the depths. He carefully pinched the magic crystal with his two dragon claws. Throughout the entire process, Garen held his breath in case he touched other gems.

If the accumulated treasures were messed up, the White Dragon Mother would definitely check carefully immediately.

Picking up the magic crystal, Garen slowly placed the imitation ice crystal he had created back on the spot. His movements were gentle, like a tiger sniffing a rose.

“As expected of me, my talent is self-taught!” Garen held the beautiful crystalline magic crystal and sniffed it lightly.

Hmm, the magic crystal did not smell of anything.

He raised his neck and opened his mouth. Garen released his dragon claw and the magic crystal fell into his seemingly bottomless mouth.

Gulp… Garen swallowed hard and his empty stomach immediately felt more at ease.

At the same time, a chill quickly arose in his stomach and surged like a stream, leading to all parts of his body. Wherever the stream passed, it throbbed slightly, as if there were countless small hands and mouths gently massaging him.

The White Dragon liked the cold, which was a very comfortable feeling for Garen.

It was as if he was on a sunny summer afternoon. After ending his day of exhaustion, he went to find a cute and gentle girl to do a special full-body massage. After that, he would drink a mouthful of frozen carbonated drink.

His entire body felt so comfortable that it was unforgettable. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

“Roar…” Garen narrowed his eyes slightly and could not help but let out a rippling dragon roar.

“I have to digest and absorb this magic power as soon as possible.”

Dragon scales had a powerful magic resistance, especially to the corresponding magic power of their attributes. It was the nightmare of many mages that adult dragons were immune to most spells.

As long as Garen closed his dragon mouth, even if the White Dragon Mother was in front of him, it would be difficult for her to discover the surging ice-type magic power in his body.

However, Garen did not want to show too much abnormality.

His body size and unique appearance were already obvious enough. If he continued to use his nostrils to vent his energy strangely, he would probably attract the suspicion of the White Dragon Mother.

Garen would not underestimate the White Dragon Mother who was almost an adult, so he quickly ran to the nest with the cold wind whistling. He quietly lay on the ground and absorbed the magic power emitted by the magic crystal with all his might while observing the traces of the White Dragon Mother.

Every time a portion of the crystal melted in the furnace-like dragon’s stomach, it would emit waves of frost magic power, causing Garen to roar comfortably.

This magic crystal was not considered high-level and was also in the corner of the White Dragon Mother’s collection. However, to a baby dragon that had just been born, it was considered top-grade.

Ten minutes later, in Garen’s vision, a faint white shadow carried the snow that filled the sky and quickly flew towards the entrance of the nest that was hundreds of meters high. Her figure gradually became clear.

It was the White Dragon Mother.

Noticing that the White Dragon Mother was about to return, Garen’s heart immediately skipped a beat.

Although he felt that the White Dragon Mother could not discover the magic in his body through his dragon scales, he still had a guilty conscience. Garen wanted to commit the crime as perfectly as possible.

Immediately, Garen tried his best to digest the magic crystal in his body. In a short period of time, the concentrated magic waves surged, causing his entire body to be numb and weak.

Seeing that the White Dragon Mother’s figure was getting closer and closer, there was still about a quarter of the crystal in Garen’s body that he had not digested. With her speed, she would arrive in less than 30 seconds.

Garen was anxious.

“Hurry, hurry, hurry! Faster!”

The White Dragon Mother’s figure was already very clear. Even through the snow, Garen could see her cold pale yellow eyes.

In an instant, the thin black scales around his neck flashed with a deep light.

In his vision, the world of ice and snow that filled the sky froze. Time stopped at this moment as if a pause button had been pressed. Garen could clearly see the snow that stopped in the air, the cold wind that swept up the snow, and the lifelike stiff White Dragon Mother in the cold wind.

“What happened?”

In a daze, Garen looked up.

He seemed to have seen an illusory river that drowned the entire sky. The river water with a mysterious aura was flowing at an eternal and constant speed.

A huge dragon-shaped phantom circled above, like the master of the illusory river. It was staring at him with its platinum-colored bright dragon eyes.
