The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming-Chapter 888 - 882: The Two Faces of Good and Evil
Chapter 888: Chapter 882: The Two Faces of Good and Evil
At the summit of the Sky-reaching Wood.
With the breeze blowing past, layers of rustling leaves gradually revealed an azure dragon statue, imbued with endless power and dignity.
Amidst the reflection of surging blue essence of the Rising Dragon, the statue emanated a divine radiance too intense to gaze upon directly, except for the pair of dragon eyes that remained tightly shut, as if in deep slumber.
“Chirp chirp!” (So much blue essence!)
Lolo’s eyes lit up, eager to collect some of the blue essence for David Jones.
But no matter how it manipulated the Arcane Force, it could not capture a single strand within the omnipresent blue essence, like trying to scoop the moon from water.
...
“Eh, how did you two end up together?”
Seeing David Jones and Jerald Goldsmith arrive together, Nero Harvey was quite surprised.
He was well aware of Jerald Goldsmith’s character, knowing that he revered strength and preferred to act alone.
Unless David Jones exhibited strength worthy of Jerald Goldsmith’s respect, he would not accompany him, regardless of his high Talent.
“Could it be that Peony College has taken an interest in David Jones?” Nero Harvey contemplated.
“We happened by chance,” David Jones said calmly.
Then, looking around, he noticed that aside from Staley Roland, all the powerful trainers participating in the Trial of Fusion had ascended to the top of the Sky-reaching Wood.
Boom boom boom!
At that moment, the air suddenly filled with a rich fragrance of grass and wood as the figure of an old Wood Spirit with emerald-green skin and a cascade of green hair streaming from atop its head, like a waterfall, slowly appeared.
“Is this the Wood Rule pattern?”
With the Golden Eyes of Flame, David Jones scanned the intricate patterns on the palm of the Wood Spirit, subconsciously beginning to comprehend them.
“Begin!”
Under the anxious gaze of Remilia Wanton and Euphoria Pauline, the Wood Spirit decisively slapped the azure dragon statue, causing the tightly shut dragon eyes to slowly open a slight fraction, unleashing an arrogance and Domination that felt insurmountable.
“Roar!”
Accompanied by the terrifying sound of a dragon’s roar, the materialized blue soundwaves instantly annihilated the phantom of the Wood Spirit, before sweeping out in all directions with the swiftness of lightning.
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
Standing at the forefront, the trio including Nero Harvey showed no intention to dodge and calmly watched as the soundwaves approached.
“I see!”
Having seen the next second’s scene with the Golden Eyes of Flame, David Jones thought to stop Lolo from defending, and he faced the blue soundwaves head-on.
As the blue light sparkled and blossomed, David Jones felt the world spin before he appeared within an unknown space.
He scanned his surroundings and found that the walls were carved with complex patterns that exuded an ancient and mysterious beauty.
“This seems to be the annals of the history of the Human race of the Flowery Kingdom,” David Jones thought, quickly distinguishing specific information from the epic canvas before him.
As David Jones watched, the glowing patterns around him soon gathered to form a less-than-two-meter long Divine Dragon of azure color.
“Greetings to the Azure Dragon senior,” David Jones said, bowing slightly.
Although the true Sacred Beast, the Azure Dragon, was still slumbering, it was still proper to show respect.
After all, had it not been for the assistance of the Heavenly Azure Dragon with the Origin Emperor to end the rule of the Beasts, he would not have lived peacefully within the Flowery Kingdom, let alone grow stronger so swiftly.
“Close your eyes, relax your mind, and sense the destiny of the nation!”
The eyes of the Azure Dragon shone brightly, and a Psychic wave immediately entered David Jones’s brain.
Upon hearing this, David Jones immediately closed his eyes and meditated on the Taikoo Black Dragon Chart.
Boom boom boom!
As the Divine Dragon of azure color circled and whirled in mid-air, the scales upon its body seemed to come alive, emitting a solemn sound.
The immense yet intangible destiny of the nation began to wash over David Jones’s body, as if examining the extent of his physical body’s affinity with the nation’s destiny.
…
Elsewhere, Nero Harvey knelt on one knee, his strong body, forged through painstaking training, began to tremble uncontrollably.
“I refuse to believe I’ll fail again!”
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
Nero Harvey gritted his teeth against the pain, trying to stand up straight and persist.
However, the sense of weakness that came from his body caused him to stagger and he almost fell to the ground.
“Damn it!”
Realizing that the azure Divine Dragon had vanished without a trace, a hint of bitterness couldn’t help but appear in Nero Harvey’s eyes.
This situation meant that he had failed to resonate with the national fate, missing the chance to become an Azure Dragon Envoy, a position comparable to that of an Immortal Trainer.
The next second, a radiant azure light twinkled again, teleporting Nero Harvey away from the mysterious space that bore the fate of the nation.
“Did you two also fail?”
Seeing that Remilia Wanton had awakened even earlier than he had, Nero Harvey couldn’t help but ask.
Euphoria Pauline smiled, “We’ve already failed so many times, one more failure seems only normal.”
After speaking, she turned her head to the right.
At that moment, the figures of David Jones and Jerald Goldsmith had yet to appear, indicating they had not failed yet; they might still have the chance to awaken the long-dormant Heavenly Azure Dragon.
Thinking of this, Euphoria Pauline couldn’t help but feel a surge of anticipation.
Although they were unable to awaken the Heavenly Azure Dragon and obtain the pure power of the Azure Dragon, as long as a Trainer could successfully awaken the consciousness of the Azure Dragon, they could trade with the Sacred Beast.
“I hope what the rumors say about David Jones is true, that he has the talent of the Immortal, impressive enough to even move the heart of the Sacred Beast, the Azure Dragon.”
…
“Who are you exactly?”
When David Jones opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the immense figure of the Heavenly Azure Dragon that blotted out the sky.
Different from the Heavenly Azure Dragon sealed within The Tower of Refining Beasts, this totem, well-known within the Flowery Kingdom, although identical in appearance to the Fodu Azure Dragon, displayed a distinctly stronger aura of divinity; however, its strength seemed somewhat inferior.
“Beast Name”: Heavenly Azure Dragon (Sacred Beast)
“Species Level”: Immortal
“Grade”: Class IX upper-level (in metamorphosis)
“Species Skill”: …
“Pet Profile”: The totem of the Sacred Beast rooted in the national fate of the human race of the Flowery Kingdom can continually evolve and ascend by borrowing the national qi. As a price, should the human race of the Flowery Kingdom perish, the Sacred Beast, the Azure Dragon, will also suffer great harm and may even be entirely annihilated.
Note: The Sacred Beast, the Azure Dragon, is an avatar formed by the division of good and evil from the Fodu Azure Dragon; the two can be considered two sides of the same entity, coexisting with each other, where the Sacred Beast represents absolute divinity and justice, and the Fodu Azure Dragon bears the absolute evil.
“!!!”
David Jones’ pupils constricted as he suddenly understood why he always felt something was off about the Heavenly Azure Dragon sealed within the Buddha Tower.
That was a Demon Dragon stripped of its divinity, leaving only its brutal evil behind!
This meant that if he had agreed to the Fodu Azure Dragon’s suggestion back then, he might not even know how he would have died.
There was just one thing that puzzled David Jones.
If the Fodu Azure Dragon was indeed the embodiment of absolute evil, why did it gift Lolo a strand of the Azure Dragon’s power back then and not attempt to kill him?
David Jones’s mind raced with thought, and he arrived at a conjecture quite quickly.
If the Fodu Azure Dragon had an overwhelmingly superior strength, there would be no need to propose a body swap to prolong its life; it could have simply smashed him dead with a slap.
Therefore, the Fodu Azure Dragon must have been restrained by something within the Beast Refining Tower.
“Who are you exactly?”
Seeing that David Jones did not heed him, the Sacred Beast, the Azure Dragon, asked again, still with a hint of shock in its eyes.
