Chapter 188 - Fusion: Dragon Aura
Chapter 188: Fusion: Dragon Aura
“Master, you’re finally back!”
“Huh, they are…?”
After Ji Ye returned to the Manor of Beasts, a lot of people welcomed him.
Apart from the Shi brothers, there were also several players from the Twin Dragon Mount fort, including Mister Bug, Wu Qiao, and An Quan.
“Young Master!”
Nie Xiaoqian was there too. She felt greatly reassured seeing that Ji Ye was unscathed!
“Let me introduce you. This is Reverend Yideng, Senior Old Kid, Reverend Ci’en, Yang Guo ‘the Swordsman Condor’, and Senior Aunt Ying…”
While the players looked at him with excitement, Ji Ye introduced the heroes from The Return of the Condor Heroes to them.
“Nice to meet you… We’ve known you for a long time!”
Naturally, the players from Earth were more or less excited.
However, since they represented the Twin Dragon Mount fort, which was rather famous in this world too, they had to play cool without showing that they were awed.
“Senior Meng has already set off to Xiangyang City with Miss Guo and the others!”
Wu Qiao spoke to Ji Ye after they all entered the Manor of Beasts.
Because the temperature was higher on this day, the Yellow River was unfrozen and could be sailed on.
When Ji Ye and Yang Guo went to the Black Dragon Swamp during the day, Guo Fu came to the Black Dragon Swamp and took Guo Xiang back to Xiangyang.
Senior Meng followed the Guo siblings with Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and other heroes.
The Earth players stayed here only because they wanted to get closer to the heroes from The Return of the Condor Heroes so that they could learn their ultimate martial arts.
The heroes from the Twin Dragon Mount fort, on the other hand, already had the most suitable arts, and they didn’t need to learn from the experts in this world, so their best choice was to go to Xiangyang City and meet Guo Jing and Huang Rong.
Although the Yuan troops were still preparing themselves, and a battle was unlikely to break out at this time of the year, small-scale skirmishes were bound to happen.
The Twin Dragon Mount fort, as the earliest settlement to arrive, would definitely be able to win Guo Jing and Huang Rong’s appreciation with its heroes, such as Yang Zhi, Wu Song, and Lu Zhishen, who were at least Excellent and who had abundant battle experiences. They could secure important posts in Xiangyang City before the players and heroes from other settlements arrived.
If they worked in the important posts, they would have enough advantages in this national battle, and they could get a tremendous amount of providence for the Twin Dragon Mount fort after victory!
Technically speaking, this Battlefield of Providence wasn’t just the competition between two human civilizations, but also one among the settlements from Earth.
“Brother Ji, my sister is here. I have to go back to Xiangyang City.
“I wanted to wait until you came back with the white fox, but my sister didn’t seem to like Swordsman Condor. She said that she would tell our parents what happened last night if I didn’t go with her…
“Brother Ji, after you cure Uncle Shi’s injuries and Swordsman Condor’s arm, you must come to Xiangyang. I’ll invite you to my place so that you can show me the white fox. Is that okay to you?”
In the Manor of Beasts’ room for the most honorable guest, Ji Ye read the letter that young Guo Xiang had left for him with a weird expression.
It seemed that he had claimed the plot in the novel when Yang Guo met Guo Xiang.
Of course, if this gave him a chance to get Guo Xiang’s keepsake, it would definitely be a good thing.
After all, the future founder of the Emei Sect should be at least an Excellent Transcendent hero!
“I’d better perform a fusion first.”
However, that thing could be left aside for now.
Ji Ye chose to start the first fusion after he entered the Battlefield of Providence. He had already picked a target for this fusion.
It was the Dragon Aura!
The reverberation of Dragon Aura in the Black Dragon Swamp made him realize that it was definitely not a regular Extraordinary Rank-7 thing, so he decided to fuse it before the Mirage Dragon Pearl, the Mysterious Mallet, and the Void Ring.
With Ji Ye’s declaration, intense light emanated from him while he sat cross-legged!
…
At about ten o’clock at night, in the Manor of Beasts…
The moon could barely be seen on this night, but thanks to the sunny weather, the stars were very clear.
“Aowooooo… Roar… Hiss…”
In the Manor of Beasts where all kinds of beasts were tamed, roars were echoing!
All of a sudden, all the roars of the ferocious beasts came to an abrupt halt, as if they were intimidated by something.
Whoosh!
In the guest room in the Manor of Beasts, Ji Ye, sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes.
Above his head, a stream of white air rose about two meters tall and vaguely formed the shape of a dragon!
As for Ji Ye himself, he was even stronger than before.
His stats were like this.
[Alignment: Human (Earth)]
[Talent: Fusion (Extraordinary, Inheritance), Healing (Extraordinary, Perfect, Rare)]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-7 (Boss)]
[Skills: Nine Yang Divine Art, Five Thunder Heavenly Spirit Technique (Gongsun Sheng), True Seer (Yan Qing), Medicine (An Daoquan), Shipbuilding (Meng Kang)…
[Items: Void Ring, Totem Wolf Skin, Soul Prisoner’s Mask, Mirage Dragon Pearl, Radiant Gold Bow…]
[Others: Flood Dragon Bloodline (Legendary), Alpha Wolf’s Mark (Transcendent)…]
That’s right. After fusing the Dragon Aura, Ji Ye’s level was officially improved to Extraordinary Rank-7.
The Dragon Aura was itself a Perfect Extraordinary Rank-7 item that a Legendary Flood Dragon King prepared for its descendants. It could inherit power like the Totem Wolf Skin did!
Even though he wasn’t a real Flood Dragon, and there were losses during the fusion, it was still enough for him to advance into Extraordinary Rank-7 since the human bloodline and the dragon bloodline were highly compatible.
Also, because of the high quality of the Dragon Aura, he was already an expert among the Extraordinary Rank-7, even though he had just advanced.
“More importantly, although I’ve only fused some Dragon Aura, I’ve completely understood its mechanism. I can totally generate new Dragon Aura continuously with the Flood Dragon Blood as well as my own power!
“I have to say that the Dragon Aura is very powerful.”
Ji Ye moved his eyes and looked at the window.
In the next moment, some of the Dragon Aura above his head was separated and knocked the window open like a white dragon.
Then, it flew into the lake outside of the finest guest room of the Manor of Beasts.
“Rise!”
After a two-second pause, Ji Ye saw that the shape of a dragon emerged on a stone half the size of a human head, and it soared from the lake and flew into his room through the window.
Exactly as he had speculated before, the Dragon Aura could leak into other things.
Therefore, he could relocate objects remotely with the reverberation of the Dragon Aura even though he wasn’t in the water.
Of course, if there had been a lot of water in the object at the beginning, the infiltration of the Dragon Aura would be faster and easier.
That was only the first usage of the Dragon Aura.
“The second usage should be in the category of mental attack!”
During his fusion, Ji Ye had subconsciously considered the way the Eagle Men cultivated their Battle Auras. Then, he found that the Dragon Aura he fused carried certain features of the Battle Auras.
When it was attached to weapons, it would make them more powerful and add mental power to them, so that they could impose special pressure on the enemy like Yang Zhi could!
It was the reason why all the ferocious beasts in the manor fell silent.
After all, those beasts were only Ordinary even though they were ferocious, and a Flood Dragon of the lowliest level would still be at least a Transcendent creature!
On the other side, the Dragon Aura, which could be freely gathered and dispersed, was more flexible than the condensed Flood Dragon Blood and could be transformed into various shapes like the Radiant Gold.
Hum!
Ji Ye thought of another thing.
The white Dragon Aura above his head began to constrict and concentrated into what appeared to be a long spear in his hand, before it then transformed into a sword, a saber, and a bow!
However, they were just a small part of the Dragon Aura.
Hum!
Ji Ye thought of something else again.
The white Dragon Aura changed again, turning from a sword into the fuzzy shape of a dragon that was glowing.
However, this time, it had appeared right under Ji Ye’s feet.
Then, stepping on the Dragon Aura, Ji Ye took off from the ground, flew out of the room through the window, and floated above the artificial hill outside!
That’s right. It was exactly “Riding Clouds”!
After fusing the Dragon Aura, Ji Ye finally grasped the dragon’s special technique!
Of course, it should probably be called “Riding the Dragon”.
Because he was actually riding the Dragon Aura instead of real clouds, the Dragon Aura would continuously be consumed during his flight.
Therefore, until the speed of the Dragon Aura generated in his body was high enough, he couldn’t use this technique as a regular way of traveling, just like he couldn’t use Distance Reduction.
Also, he did not dare to fly too high, because it would be rather embarrassing if he fell from a high altitude because he ran out of Dragon Aura.
“Whoa!
“Brother Ji, what is that technique? Can you teach the Old Kid how to fly?”
When Ji Ye stood on the top of the artificial hill with Dragon Aura under his feet, an excited voice echoed.
