BXBX NOVEL Chapter 467: 461: Thunder-Swallowing Dragon
What a rich concentration of thunder element Arcane Force! I didn’t expect that the Beast Refining Tower could actually recreate the Fallen Immortal Thunder Rain that has been extinct since ancient times.”
Wood fears thunder and fire. Except for a few rare plants that can withstand the destructive power of thunderstorms, most plants will be reduced to ashes under the force of heavenly thunderstorms.
However, even if life undergoes a metamorphosis, and the plants become Plant Type pets, they still instinctively avoid places where thunderstorms strike. And the Fallen Immortal Thunder Rain is one of those rare exceptions.
As a Wood and Thunder dual-element plant, its rank is as high as Level 7 Epic, making it an extremely valuable body-forging treasure.
Not only can Fallen Immortal Thunder Rain withstand the destructive power of thunderstorms, but it can even actively attract them to accelerate its growth.
However, because the Fallen Immortal Thunder Rain can only live in areas struck by thunderstorms all year round, coupled with the excessive harvesting by ancient martial artists, today the Flowery Kingdom has no trace of the Fallen Immortal Thunder Rain.
“If I remember correctly, there should usually be the True Dragon of the Thunder Realm – Swallow Thunder Rain Dragon dwelling where the Fallen Immortal Thunder Rain grows.”
As he thought, David Jones patted the Gluttonous Beast’s head, signaling for it to activate the Anti-Arcane Force Defense System and proceed toward the Thundering Forest.
“Rumbling!”
Perhaps due to the magnetic interference, the Gluttonous Beast had barely entered the brightly lit forest when the thunderstorms entwining the Fallen Immortal Thunder Rain started to rage, as thousands of lightning bolts like silver dragons rapidly fell from the sky.
However, those countless thunderstorms were blocked and absorbed by the Gluttonous Beast’s Energy Storage System before they could even spread to David Jones.
“Can you hold on?”
Feeling the ever-increasing strength of the surrounding Thunderforce, David Jones looked into the electric gleam in Gluttonous Beast’s Dragon Eyes and asked softly.
I can hold on for an hour,” Gluttonous Beast replied truthfully.
The Thunderforce gathered in this forest was both vast and overwhelming, with the power of its dispersed currents extremely astonishing.
Even with the protection of the Gluttonous Beast’s Legend Realm, they could only advance cautiously to avoid triggering the entire forest’s retaliation.
“Can I use this Thunderforce to cultivate?” David Jones communicated through his thoughts.
The Gluttonous Beast’s Infinite Evolution wasn’t too demanding of Arcane Force attributes. As long as it was Arcane Force, it could be absorbed. Perhaps they could improve its Thunder resistance by devouring the Thunderforce.
Stretching out its dragon claws, the Gluttonous Beast tried to activate Infinite Evolution on a small scale. The surrounding Thunderforce, seemingly finding its home, was drawn in at a terrifying speed into its dragon claws.
“Be careful about the amount of Arcane Force you absorb. Don’t let us get kicked out of the Beast Refining Tower again!”
After reminding the Gluttonous Beast, David Jones shifted his attention to the Artifact Spirit prompt that appeared in his ears.
“Trial of the Sixth Layer: Defeat the Swallow Thunder Rain Dragon or gain its approval, and obtain a Thunderstorm Fruit in order to pass.
(Note: Within the Thundering Forest, the Swallow Thunder Rain Dragon can manipulate the Thunderforce stored in the forest on a large scale, drastically increasing its power.)”
“As expected, there is a Swallow Thunder Rain Dragon here!”
David Jones saw a Dragon footprint in the distance, about five meters wide and about half a meter thick, and his heart suddenly sank.
According to the Beast Trainer Catalogue, a True Dragon’s body length is roughly fifteen times the length of its claw marks, and the Swallow Thunder Rain Dragon is one of the smaller Dragon Species among the Overlord True Dragon Species.
Mature Swallow Thunder Rain Dragons typically measure around one hundred meters in length.
Obviously, from the surrounding footprints, the Swallow Thunder Rain Dragon in the Thundering Forest had a body length of around seventy-five meters, almost reaching the apex of its growth and about to enter its mature, peak ’ phase.
“Class VI? Or the apex of Fifth Rank Upper?”
Just as David Jones pondered, a domineering Dragon Domination that he had never felt before spread from the depths of the forest.
Damn, it’s really the apex of a Fifth Rank Upper True Dragon!” David Jones couldn’t help but lament.
The next second, the dragon aura released from the depths of the Thundering Forest suddenly surged.
A huge, mighty purple giant dragon spread its wings, and with a single wave, its massive body instantly appeared in front of David Jones.
Sitting on the back of the Gluttonous Beast, David Jones stared at the giant dragon in front of him, which had a single horn on its head, sparse fangs, and lightning crackling on the sides of its skull, as he fell silent.
“What an ugly Thunder Dragon!”
“Pet Name”: Thunder-swallowing Dragon
“Pet Type”: Thunder, Dragon
“Species Level”: Epic Overlord
“Grade”: Fifth Rank Upper Peak
Species Skill”: Swallowing Thunderbolt, Angry Thunder Dragon Fang,
Thunder Armor, Heavenly Thunder Shock, Thunderstorm Annihilation, Overlord Domination
Pet Profile”: The Thunder-swallowing Dragon inhabits areas where the Fallen Fairy Thunderstorm grows. When its bloodline reaches its peak, it swallows the fruit nurtured by the Fallen Fairy Thunderstorm, successfully breaking through to the seventh rank; it is one of the few rare dragon species guaranteed to become a Seventh-Order Tyrant.
“Leave this place, or don’t blame me for being rude!”
The Thunder-swallowing Dragon examined David Jones with a glance, spewing out a violent lightning bolt from its mouth, turning the ground two meters in front of him black.
Roar!” The Gluttonous Beast raised its head high, emitting an overwhelming dragon aura, staring intently at the Thunder-swallowing Dragon, without losing momentum.
The cautious Thunder-swallowing Dragon did not know that because of this provocative action, it had successfully attracted the enmity of Rainbow, Daphne, and the Gluttonous Beast.
“Give me a Thunderstorm Fruit, and I’ll turn around and go!” David Jones proposed.
Fifth Rank Upper Peak, just one step away from stepping into the sixth rank, the Overlord True Dragon’s strength is extremely strong, and this is the home field of the Thunder-swallowing Dragon.
If there is room for negotiation, David Jones plans to start with a courteous approach, even if the opponent is just an manifested illusion.
“Human, you’re courting death!”
With that said, the Thunder-swallowing Dragon’s rage surged, giving off a series of huge thunderbolts with the rumbling of thunder flashing behind its back.
Thunderstorm Fruit is the most precious treasure of the Thunder-swallowing Dragon clan and the key to entering the Seventh-Order Tyrant realm.
In some sense, David Jones’ attempt to snatch the Thunderstorm Fruit represented a mortal enmity with the Thunder-swallowing Dragon clan that would not cease until the other party’s death.
Has the negotiation failed? Looks like the affinity of Dragon Dance with Beast Refining Tower isn’t very effective!”
Looking at the incoming frenzy of dragon-like roaring thunderbolts, David
Jones calmly pet the Rainbow on his shoulder.
The fifth rank upper peak of the Thunder-swallowing Dragon is indeed strong, even crushing some lower-ranked sixth-order exotic beasts.
If it were a one-on-one battle, the three pets might not be a match for the Thunder-swallowing Dragon.
But if they forget about chivalry and gang up on it, David Jones still has a few chances of winning.
“Frozen Wasteland + Frostfall Ashes!”
Rainbow flew forward, and the icy chill exploded.
For the first time, this forest, covered by thunderbolts and high temperatures, experienced a snowfall and an unprecedented ultra-low temperature.
“Useless, human, this is my territory!”
Following the roar of the Thunder-swallowing Dragon, numerous lightning bolts as thick as water barrels continuously bombarded the ice and snow zone condensed by Rainbow, causing the range of the zone to shrink significantly.
