Chapter 990: Chapter 348: Second Form (Double-Length Chapter) (Part 4)

On one side of the mountain’s base, Kroli shook his head with regret and said:

“What a shame, that young man just now had commendable courage but was as dull-minded as a barbarian, not knowing to dodge, only knowing to fight head-on!”

“Otherwise, if he could have heavily injured the Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius, when Great Priest Erikson arrived, he might have reaped a significant advantage.”

Suddenly, the expression of Kolaxius in the field changed. It felt something rising beneath its body, and at the same time, the stabbing pain on its back became more pronounced.

As for the crowd around, they were all staring agape at Kolaxius.

Because they saw Kolaxius’ enormous body in a convex shape.

A tremendously strong dragon-man, glowing with a blood-red light all over, had lifted a segment of Kolaxius’s body with a riding spear.

“Pfft! Pfft!”

The spear continuously stabbed, causing Kolaxius immense pain as if being sliced by knives, immediately letting out a miserable scream!

And with Rein repeatedly withdrawing his spear, a large amount of pale blue dragon blood, carrying a chill, poured over him like a blue waterfall.

At this moment, the system prompt suddenly sounded:

[Ding! Host detected receiving a dragon blood baptism from the giant Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius. A large number of absorbable dragon gene fragments found, absorb them?]

(Note: After absorbing these dragon gene fragments, the upper limit of the host’s dragon bloodline concentration can be greatly increased.)

Rein was stunned for a moment.

“Substantially increase?!”

Rein immediately chose “Yes!”

Just like last time, in an instant, Rein felt the skin stained with the giant Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius’s blood suddenly grow hot, as if something was seeping heavily into his body.

And Kolaxius, apparently unable to withstand such pain, unwilling to continue fighting, took advantage of Rein’s brief hesitation to drag its tired body and flap its wings to quickly escape.

Rein’s absorption process also took significantly longer than before, taking nearly six seconds to return to normal.

“Huh? It didn’t advance another level in bloodline concentration?”

Rein could feel the power surging through his body, but his dragon bloodline concentration remained at the ‘pure’ level and did not advance to the next tier.

However, upon sensing slightly, he realized perhaps it was due to insufficient amounts of dragon blood; he was currently in a state on the verge of advancing.

Most likely, when he finally kills Kolaxius and bathes in dragon blood once again, he will be able to enhance his bloodline concentration.

When Rein looked up at Kolaxius again, he saw the enormous creature dragging its injured body flying north.

After some thought, Rein chose not to pursue.

It’s not that he didn’t want to chase, but his current physical state wasn’t good either.

Not to mention the aftereffects of transformation.

Even his previously indestructible dragon scales cracked under Kolaxius’s pressure; it was the first time Rein got injured in his dragon-man form.

Yet, it was this injury that allowed Rein, for the first time, to unlock the ‘Bloodthirsty Frenzy’ core skill of his epic level profession ‘King of Thousand Blades’, massively boosting his combat power to lift the over-hundred-ton body of Kolaxius more than halfway.

Moreover, Blood Feather still had Anna and Merita; he couldn’t take them to aerial fight Kolaxius….

Rein wasn’t worried about Kolaxius seeking him out after recovering, he was eager for it!

Because time was on his side.

As time progresses, he will only grow stronger.

The next time he encounters the Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius, the latter likely won’t have the chance to flee again.

“Huh?”

“This….”

Rein suddenly paused, because he saw, in the system prompt, a string of words:

[Congratulations, with the enhancement of bloodline power, you have unlocked the second form of the Mutated Dragon-man!]
