The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming - Chapter 618:
Chapter 618: Chapter 612: The Arrogant Kylin
“Don’t rush, first try to see if you can use it to open the top-grade Star Ring,” David Jones hurriedly stopped him.
Lolo nodded slightly, restraining the desire in her heart, as she placed the Refined Universe Crystal on the surface of the Star Ring, cautiously stimulating the spatial Arcane Force.
“Whoomp!”
The plain crystal, flickering in and out of visibility, suddenly erupted in a dazzling burst of strong light.
Under such stimulation, mysterious Rune Circles emerged from the body of the Star Ring, only to be swiftly devoured and obliterated by the bright light.
“Crack crack!”
As the Rune Circles were continuously obliterated, an interlude resembling the crushing of sand and stone kept sounding, making David Jones unable to help but swallow nervously.
He was unaware of others, but inside Collins Clark’s Star Ring was a Soul-Refining Bodhi Tree sapling and a Firewood Kylin.
If the Refined Universe Crystal destroyed the spatial prohibitions as well as the Dungeon anchored to the Star Ring, he would suffer a total loss.
A minute later, as Lolo, feeling the fluctuations of space, suddenly opened her eyes and removed the Refined Universe Crystal, the trembling top-grade Star Ring also returned to calm, although the top-grade Void Stone embedded inside the Star Ring had obviously dimmed quite a lot.
“Did it succeed?” David Jones took a deep breath.
Lolo, beaming, nodded and without hesitation pushed both the Refined Universe Crystal and the Star Ring towards David Jones.
Picking up the Star Ring, David Jones chose to swiftly Contract and claim ownership, probing into the Star Ring with his Psychic Power.
Ignoring the dazzling treasures within the Star Ring, David Jones began to sense the location of the Dungeon anchored to it.
“Let’s all go over!”
David Jones’s lips curled upwards slightly, and as the spatial ripples on the Star Ring began to spread, he and his Pets disappeared from the spot, leaving only the clueless Goldy behind.
“Glug!”
…
After a moment of celestial movements, David Jones was faced with a lush and verdant primeval forest.
This forest seemed to have just suffered from a Beast attack, as withered ancient trees uniformly lay collapsed into the pitted ravines.
“Is this a riot caused by Mysterious Beasts?” David Jones’s eyes narrowed slightly.
The Mystery Power, invisible to the eyes of common Trainers, was as evident as a stench of contamination to his keen perception, detectable even without activating the Illusion-Piercing Eye.
“Chirp!” (It’s over there!)
Lolo raised her hand and a Beast, over three meters long, resembling a scorpion and with a human face on its head, was immediately impaled by eight thick branches.
This unknown Mysterious Beast wasn’t very powerful, merely upper-level Class VI, but the huge evil eye on its forehead emitting a strange and sinister aura was captivating.
“Pet Name”: Evil-eyed Dark Scorpion
“Pet Type”: Sinister Spirit, Darkness
“Species Level”: King
“Grade”: Class VI upper-level
“Species Skill”: Dark Scorpion Mystery Poison, Weird Eye, Soul Infection, Soul-devouring Darkness, Human Soul and Beastly Body
“Pet Profile”: A mystified scorpion polluted by an experiment combining a Trainer’s soul with a Beast; its call sounds like it’s screaming its own name, and those of weak Psychic makeup who hear it will die within a day.
“They’re actually experimenting with Trainers and Beasts together!” David Jones’s expression turned cold.
The practices of the Sacred Soul Sect were so utterly perverse they touched his bottom line.
“Kill it, don’t let the mournful souls live on in humiliation.”
Upon hearing this, Lolo clenched her five fingers, and a terrifying Domination erupted from the ancient wood, rapidly devouring the Evil-eyed Dark Scorpion completely.
Boom!
At that moment, a huge disturbance from the northern forest caught David Jones’s attention.
He exchanged glances with his pets, Rainbow and Lolo, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
…
The Firewood Kylin, trapped in the silent firestone cage, lay on the ground, not even giving a glance to the Evil-eyed Dark Scorpions howling around it.
Although the Firewood Kylin only had the strength of a Class IV lower-level, it possessed the Redeemed Flames, which had a strong restraining effect on Mysterious Beasts; even Class VI Kings were no match for it, let alone these experimental Mysterious Beasts.
“A tiger fallen on the plains is bullied by dogs, now a bunch of lowly ants dare to covet the sacred body!” The Firewood Kylin shook its head.
Normally, no Mysterious Beasts would dare to appear before it, for it would just burn everything in front of it to ashes with a single breath of fire.
Sadly, now that it was confined by the cage, it could only pretend not to see them.
“Wipe out these Mysterious Beasts!”
Observing from a distance the trunk of the Soul-Refining Bodhi Tree sapling, curved like a Demon Dragon, with thick foliage showing traces of blood, once majestic but now constantly exuding a weird aura, David was extremely angry.
“Soul-Refining Bodhi Sapling (Under Mystification)”: A Level VII SSS tier mesona, offspring of the Treasured Bodhi Tree, due to the invasion of blood energy and Mystery Power, it has currently fallen to an SS tier.
David knew that the Sacred Soul Sect had a purpose in snatching the Bodhi Tree sapling, but he did not expect Collins Clark, that old fellow, to be so efficient!
If he had opened his Star Ring any later, he might’ve faced a mighty Bodhi Mystery Tree.
“Someone’s coming?”
Hearing a disturbance unlike any before, the Firewood Kylin slowly stood up, its calm heart unexpectedly tense.
Because of the presence of the Kylin Saint Spirit and its own special nature, the Firewood Kylin did not believe there was a human who dared to harm, let alone kill, it.
But an Evil Trainer who had lost his sanity and fallen in with the Mysterious Beasts was the sole exception.
“Huh? How is it a young prodigy?”
The Firewood Kylin looked at the youth who appeared before it, a trace of surprise in its eyes.
There were many legendary powerhouses at the auction. Could this youngster be the offspring of one of them?
“Could it be that the King’s Dance of Dragons’ Affinity also works on Kylins?”
Seeing the Firewood Kylin with a flame-shaped dragon head and backward-bending antlers staring at him all the time, David felt somewhat excited.
After all, besides being a Fire Type, the Firewood Kylin also had Dragon characteristics, and Beasts with Dragon properties were generally influenced by the Dragon-Wielding Force.
Considering this, David no longer cared about the Evil-eyed Dark Scorpions being crushed to death by his pets around him. His gaze fixed on the Firewood Kylin, he contemplated in his heart how to persuade it to submit to him.
In Loona’s eyes, watching from the side, the man and the beast seemed to be playing a game of who would look away first would lose.
The next second, David made his move.
Constantly observing the Firewood Kylin’s expressions, he reached his right hand through the gaps in the silent firestone cage, intending to stroke its head with his Dragon-Wielding Force.
“Hey, kid, who are you? Getting handsy the moment we meet!”
The Firewood Kylin’s golden eyes slightly widened, exuding a fierce sense that if you dare to reach out your hand, I’ll melt it with a burst of fierce flames, causing David’s approaching hand to pause momentarily.
His instinct told him that even with the affinity brought by the Dragon-Wielding Force, the untamed Kylin before him would still firmly bite him.
“Sure enough, the legendary Emperor Beasts standing at the apex can resist the allure of the Dragon-Wielding Force,” David silently mused in his heart.
Emperor species Beast had always been the ultimate goal for Legendary Beast Tamers to form a Contract with, let alone the Firewood Kylin, which was considered an extreme Breed amongst the Emperor species.
This was a being with the potential to break free from its shackles and ascend to Immortality. It was not surprising that it could resist the effects of the Dragon-Wielding Force.
