Chapter 48 - Mystic Rank Dragon
Chapter 48: Mystic Rank Dragon
Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief. It was still a little difficult to deal with agility-type monsters. Well, it was not just agility-type monsters, that wolf was also a defensive-type monster. These types were not that easy to deal with.
In fact, Lin Xuan did not realize that he was only in the low-level yellow-rank hierarchy. If he advanced to the high level yellow-rank tier... he might have a higher advantage in winning. However, Lin Xuan had already found a way to deal with agility-type monsters, that was to kill them to improve himself. This Amethyst Wolf King had improved Lin Xuan’s agility physique progress by 10,000 points. If he were to do it again, he was sure that his three great talent specialties would successfully advance to the high-level.
He casually grabbed his opponent and stuffed them into his personal space. He barely managed to stuff it in. Seeling this wolf could earn him a lot of money!
The terrifying aura was getting closer and closer. Lin Xuan bravely walked in that direction. This aura was even stronger than a peak yellow-rank monster. If he did not know that this yellow-rank instance dungeon did not allow existences above yellow-rank... Lin Xuan would have really thought that a black-rank wild monster had sneaked in.
A huge claw slammed onto the roof of the first floor causing the entire palace to collapse with a loud bang. A tail full of spikes swayed around menacingly. The buildings that were touched by it shattered one after another. A huge dragon head was raised high up, and an icy look glared around the premise. The terrifying draconic aura spread out without restraint, showing off its strength!
An Earth Dragon
An adult Earth Dragon!
How the f*ck was an adult Earth Dragon at the yellow-rank!
Lin Xuan’s expression turned very ugly as he silently swore in his heart. Did he learn about this in school? He remembered that an adult Earth Dragon was meant to be at the mystic rank. This… seemed a little suspicious.
The dragon was real, and it was definitely an adult. What was off was its imposing manner, which faintly exceeded the limit of the yellow-rank, but it has not reached the mystic rank!
There were countless battles caused by wild monsters. However, only four of them managed to get the attention of Taixia Country. Including Dongning City, this was the fifth time it happened. In the previous four times, Taixia Country lost and won twice, however, some dungeons had encountered wild monsters that forcefully dropped from a mystic rank to a yellow-rank just to prey on the weaklings.
This time, the wild monsters were really shameless. Even the Earth Dragon, a mystic rank wild monster that had already reached an adult, directly forced its way in. Without a doubt, this wild monster was much more powerful than those wild monsters that they had just fought. In terms of physical fitness, the Earth Dragon’s physical fitness was still at the standard of a mystic rank monster!
Lin Xuan did not dare to be careless and directly activated his defensive class template. The slow movement of an Earth Dragon was also that of a mystic rank being. Moreover, even if its movement speed was slow, its attack speed was not one to be trifled with. To a low-level yellow-rank rookie like Lin Xuan, it was a great threat.
......
“Huh?”
Suddenly, strange movements could be felt underground. Lin Xuan’s footsteps were light, and his dark iron shield was placed horizontally in front of him. An earth spike that was coming at him diagonally was blocked by the shield. However, before he could celebrate, a loud air-piercing sound could be heard and an iron tail covered in scales had already arrived in front of him. In an instant, Lin Xuan was sent flying before he could activate his skill.
“D*mn it, it really hurts!”
Lin Xuan’s face turned red. Although he did not receive any damage, the pain was still unavoidable. He stood up from the ground and an endless amount of physical strength surged from within him. The Dragon Elephant technique was now fully activated and the sound of an elephant’s cry echoed, a scale-armored elephant was faintly discernible in his shadow.
However, the Earth Dragon curled its lips in disdain. It was just a loser with a bit of dragon bloodline. How dare he be arrogant in front of the true dragon? He doesn’t know the true meaning of power.
It would all lead to the same result, death. The scale-armored elephant still had some cards up its sleeve among the yellow-ranked wild monsters. However, it meant nothing in front of the Earth Dragon that was born with a mystic rank.
The Giant Dragon bloodline in Lin Xuan’s body was also revealed. Layers of energy scales covered his body, and a surge of energy within him was charged up. There was even a faint burning smell coming off him.
The Earth Dragon was interest was piqued when it saw Li Xuan in another state. It did not matter if Lin Xuan was strong or not. The main reason was that his body seemed strong and appetizing. Those with a bit of giant dragon bloodline had always been an interesting delicacy. Yes, to the Earth Dragon... Lin Xuan was like a piece of candy.
An iron tail swept over. Lin Xuan’s shield had already been shattered earlier from the ground. At this moment, he could only cross his hands and protect his head. Relying on the active effect of the third skill — Exhaustion — he nailed himself to the ground. No matter how the Earth Dragon attacked, Lin Xuan didn’t move at all. Instead, the iron tail bled from the constant heavy impact.
Physical strength transformed into vitality, and the huge amount of vitality nourished Lin Xuan’s arms and back. No matter how vicious the attacks were, Lin Xuan persevered. However, after being nourished by more energy, the situation improved quite a bit... Lin Xuan grimaced as he swung his arms. Looking at the gloomy Earth Dragon, he instantly became much happier.
At first, the Earth Dragon only wanted to play with Lin Xuan, but it did not expect to be injured from it. Moreover, swinging its tail also consumed a lot of physical strength. Although it was not much, it still needed to take a few deep breaths. The dragon was annoyed at Lin Xuan and it directly rushed toward him with an open bloody mouth, wanting to swallow Lin Xuan whole.
“Watch out for your teeth!”
Lin Xuan had also seen through the Earth Dragon’s intentions and did not panic at all. He took a sidestep and ducked. Now, Lin Xuan had killed quite a number of wild monsters that had an agile talent specialty — having such an experience improved his own agility as well. One had to know that the activation progress of the three major talent specialties was not just for show. It was a real improvement. The breakthrough from intermediate to advanced was only a quantitative change that would cause a qualitative change.
Therefore, when Lin Xuan killed the wild monsters, his agility increased in real-time as well. Moreover, these three major specialties and bloodlines were common to the two major job templates, so…
Lin Xuan exploded with all his strength in an instant. With the full output of the scale-armored elephant and the enhancement of the skills, the tenth change of the Dragon Elephant technique exploded with power. Lin Xuan’s right arm turned red as he charged up his strength and punched out. The sound of bones breaking could be heard. His right arm could not bear the weight and was directly shattered into pieces.
Putting aside the cost of this attack, Lin Xuan’s punch managed to hit the eyeball of the Earth Dragon. Before the dragon could even blink, its vision immediately turned black.
“Bullseye.”
The same attack appeared on the Earth Dragon’s body in the form of real damage, and it was severely injured for a moment. It must be known that the punch that Lin Xuan used to hit the Earth Dragon’s eye was not as simple as blowing up its eyeball... more importantly, the powerful fist force had injured its fragile brain.
Lin Xuan hurriedly took a few steps back. Reality proved that this method was effective. After injuring one of its eyes and severely injuring its brain, the Earth Dragon was not far from death. Before it died, there would be a period of time before it went unconscious. That crazy force of power exuded was really terrifying.
Standing on the ground, endless physical strength surged around him and continuously converted into vitality to heal Lin Xuan’s arm. Suddenly, a healing spell fell, and Lin Xuan’s arm’s recovery speed increased by a notch, it was Lin Zhenyue and Lin Zhenxing! They managed to sneak over and aid him. Lin Zhenxing saw that his arm was limp, and it was obvious that he has injured himself. Therefore, she hurriedly asked Xi to cast a spell that could repair his bones.
Vitality could indeed heal tens of thousands of injuries, but the efficiency of an all-purpose medicine could not be compared to specialized medicine.
“Why are you two here?”
