Chapter 204 Second Evolution, Diamond Dragon Claw

The moment the furnace lid was opened, a green flame instantly rose, spewing out brilliant green sparks.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn’t help but exclaim at this beautiful moment. They had never seen such a beautiful flame in their lives.

“It’s a green flame. I’ve never seen it before.”

Su Qing was surprised.

Yun Zirou explained from the side, “This is a Mystical Fire, not an ordinary flame. These Mystical Fire are much stronger than ordinary flames.”

Yun Zirou understood this because her family had a Mystical Fire as well.

As for Su Qing, this was the first time she had seen a Mystical Fire. She couldn’t help but look at it curiously.

When Cao Long saw that Yun Zirou had told them about the Mystical Fire, he did not plan to waste his breath fooling Lu Yu.

“That’s right. This is a ball of Green Mystical Fire. However, this flame is useless to you. It is just for refining medicine, and you guys are not specialized in refining them.”

Cao Long’s words immediately displeased Yun Zirou.

“What do you mean? Why wouldn’t we be refining medicine? We’ll need to refine a lot of medicine now that we’ve taken over the herb garden!”

Yun Zirou continued to add, “Don’t think that I don’t know that without this Mystical Fire, the herbs that we refine in the future will produce a huge ton of waste. Will you compensate for the loss?”

Hearing this, Cao Long immediately broke down. He really can’t lose this ball of Mystical Fire. This Mystical Fire was really all too important for the Pharmaceutical Club!

Now that someone besides him knew the value of this Mystical Fire, he couldn’t even bullshit his way out even if he wanted to. He was completely out of options.

He shouted, “Please, please just leave this Mystical Fire to us. This Mystical Fire is our Pharmaceutical Club treasure! Our Pharmaceutical Club is what it is today because of this ball of flame!”

“As the person in charge of this flame, if I were to give this Mystical Fire into the hands of others, I would definitely be punished by the people above!”

“Moreover, this Mystical Fire is not only explicitly for this stronghold. We would send the flame over if any of our other strongholds obtained something. Without this Mystical Fire, our Pharmaceutical Club would be in a miserable state. If the higher-ups knew about it, they would kill me!”

He had a face full of grief as he wailed. It seems that he was unwilling for this ball of flame to fall into Lu Yu’s hands.

Lu Yu’s interest was piqued after hearing this. He did not think this ball of fire would be so important to the Pharmaceutical Club that losing it could even shake their foundation for development.

Since that was the case, Lu Yu had even less incentive to give it to him. Why would he want to help the Pharmaceutical Club increase their strength and attack his club?

“What a joke. When your Pharmaceutical Club treated the Featherwing Club as an enemy, why didn’t you help us out? Now you want me to return the Mystical Fire to you? In your dreams!”

“Why would I help you develop and then let you come back and bite us?”

Cao Long was unable to refute that. If he were to stand on Lu Yu’s side, he would not return this Mystical Fire.

The other members of the Featherwing Club expressed their agreement one after another. They all supported Lu Yu in not returning this Mystical Fire.

“President, we definitely can’t give this Mystical Fire to them. These guys won’t give up on attacking us whether we give them the Mystical Fire or not. It’s better to attack them where it hurts!”

“That’s right. This guy sure has the shamelessness to cry miserably here. Why didn’t he say something when the five clubs ganged up to bully us?”

“Hypocrites don’t deserve our pity!”

At that moment, Lu Yu’s claws transformed into the Explosive Dragon Claws. He stretched out his right hand and reached into the furnace.

When his right hand came close, he only felt warmth, not a burning sensation. Lu Yu knew that his Explosive Dragon Claws could endure this high temperature.

Therefore, he reached out and grabbed something that looked like an iron ball from the furnace.

This was the core of the Green Mystical Fire, and the flames were centered around this ball.

Lu Yu held this ball in his hand, which was equivalent to his right hand sinking into the center of a fire.

Seeing this, everyone gulped and became nervous.

They were surprised that Lu Yu’s hands could withstand such a high temperature!

By getting close to the flame, they already felt the heat, not to mention reaching their hands into it.

At that moment, Lu Yu held the flames in his right hand and took out a material he obtained yesterday, the Diamond Chalcedony, with his left hand.

Then, he placed the Diamond Chalcedony into the Green Mystical Fire and began to burn it at a high temperature.

The Diamond Chalcedony continued to burn in the Mystical Fire, and its impurities were constantly removed and evaporated.

This piece of Chalcedony became purer and purer, brighter and brighter.

The impurities in this piece of Chalcedony were gradually removed as time passed.

Lu Yu used his Eye of the Dragon God to look at this piece of Chalcedony and received a notification.

[ Diamond Jade Stone: After melting, it will be absorbed by Rock Crushing Dragon Claw and evolve into Diamond Dragon Claw ]

He did not expect that this piece of Chalcedony would become a Jade Stone, and its properties would also change after just burning it.

Lu Yu continued to burn the Diamond Jade Stone. The high temperature slowly melted it, turning it into a ball of fluid.

Lu Yu took out this ball of viscous high-temperature fluid. It was like molten iron but golden in color.

He put the Mystical Fire back into the furnace. The high temperature dissipated, and the people around him stopped sweating profusely.

His Explosive Dragon Claws immediately changed into the Rock Crushing Dragon Claws. A thick layer of rock plate armor was attached to his claws, becoming slightly blunter and shorter.

At that time, the Diamond Jade Stone fluid automatically attached to Lu Yu’s claws and began to solidify and fuse.

The fusion was completed quickly, and Lu Yu’s claws had undergone a change.

The original rock armor on his arms had now turned into diamond armor. The texture was metallic-like, but the color was still dark and brown.

Lu Yu’s claws had become like small sickles. They were sharp and pointy. They were no less powerful than the Explosive Dragon Claws.

Moreover, the shape of this claw seemed to be specially used for grasping.

After all, the Rock Crushing Dragon Claw and the Diamond Dragon Claw mainly focus on strength and defense. Their speed was slightly inferior to the other variants.

The grasping shape of these claws would greatly help Lu Yu.

If these claws firmly grabbed onto a person, they would not be able to escape. Lu Yu could then firmly give them a good beating.

He casually picked up a rock beside him and clasped it forcefully. With a ‘poof’ sound, the rock turned into dust and debris.

This strength was terrifying, and it made Lu Yu excited.

This second fully evolved dragon claw made up for Lu Yu’s weaknesses in terms of defense and strength. Future battles would be much easier for Lu Yu.

When everyone saw the changes in Lu Yu’s dragon claws, they were so shocked that they did not know what to say.

It was difficult to smash the rock Lu Yu was holding, let alone crush it into powder. What an impossible feat!

The difference in strength deepens their respect for Lu Yu.

Cao Long, standing at the side, gulped. He wouldn’t expect his head to be much harder than a rock.

Fortunately, he did not fight to the death with Lu Yu. Otherwise, only ashes would be left of him…
