Chapter 340 – Black Dragon Transformation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gallonron felt very depressed.

Ever since he ate the mouthful of food that had been tampered with, nothing good had happened.

How many years had it been since someone suddenly attacked their island?

After chasing after them, he discovered that the other party was not a human cultivator at all, but three strange monsters.

Those three monsters were very ugly and ran very quickly. His ability as a viscount was not specialized in speed, so he chased after them for a long time before catching up to them.

After a round of beating, they were captured without any accidents.

However, the brains of the three powerful monsters could not be eaten.

Eating human food brought them order and wisdom.

However, the brains of the three monsters were filled with chaotic wills.

He only took a small taste and almost died.

If he, a noble, became a chaotic wild Troll because he ate indiscriminately, it would be no different from death.

However, this was not the most unlucky thing. When he returned to the island where he was stationed, he discovered that the entire island had already changed.

First was the fire, then the tsunami. The tens of thousands of Trolls on the island had all disappeared.

The elite Troll army that had been receiving training in the fortress suffered heavy losses.

The merman race that they had been relying on in the war had also fled.

Even one of the 17 higher-ups who had returned earlier was missing.

It turned out that the three monsters were just decoys. Such a blow was simply a great humiliation to him!

After hearing that the attacker had sunk into the deep sea and had several powerful artifacts on him, he relied on his strength to descend into the sea to search for Jiang Li’s corpse.

Under such circumstances, unless the attacker was originally from the sea, it was basically impossible for him to survive.

The main goal was still the things on Jiang Li’s body, and he wanted to know which faction was targeting him. When he found the culprit, he would definitely take revenge ruthlessly.

The Armored Troll Race was actually not good at water.

Compared to the previous few, he was naturally much stronger.

However, when he reached 70,000 feet deep, he also felt the pressure.

After a slight hesitation, he continued to sink deeper. Although he did not have a physical talent, at this level, it was enough for him to have the ability to reach the bottom of this sea.

He continued to shoot out strong lights, but at this moment, a sense of danger suddenly enveloped him.

Bright light was very dangerous underwater.

A huge monster stirred the water and pounced at him.

Every tooth of that thing could be used as a city gate. Its cave-like throat produced an ancient roar.

Gallonron’s expression darkened. Before he could react, he was bitten by the monster. The huge underwater creature waved its tail and instantly brought him far away.

More than ten thousand feet down the sea, Namur held on to the Dragon Imprisoning Lock tightly. Amidst the violent water current, he barely maintained himself from being swept away.

Dozens of breaths later, because of the swing of the huge sea monster’s tail, the chaotic current slowly dissipated.

Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the sea monster had been attracted over. Otherwise, they might really have been discovered.

He knew that there was a sea monster sleeping near this sea.

However, with his ability, he definitely could not control the other party.

The reason why he could awaken the other party in time and lure it over was because of Jiang Li’s dragon blood.

Although Jiang Li’s consciousness was asleep, his other clones did not.

He knocked on the coffin and sent the news to Nine Nether.

The parallel mind woke Jiang Li up.

Firstly, it was to make adjustments when the pressure changed after diving.

Secondly, before diving to the bottom of the sea, he created a small hole in the thick cocoon and took the initiative to leave a few drops of his blood.

In the thick cocoon, Jiang Li’s body was changing at all times. His Golden Core was refined with the Dragon Pearl as the core. When he broke out of the cocoon in the deep sea this time, it provided a huge help. The concentration of dragon blood became higher and higher.

After this dense dragon blood spread into the sea, it immediately woke up the sleeping sea monster and lured it to swim nearby.

Then, he rumbled over and arrogantly released a ball of light to light up the bottom of the sea.

This action triggered the light gathering characteristics of underwater creatures.

If the sea monster did not attack him, who else could it attack?

The sea monster was very strong. Perhaps it was not so easy to kill Gallonron, but in the sea, he was definitely not its match.

This would definitely teach that Armored Troll Viscount a deep lesson, letting him understand that he should be respectful towards the existences in the sea.

He could also learn what killing with a borrowed knife meant.

With that sea monster as his opponent, he would not be able to attack for a short period of time and find trouble with them.

At that time, as long as Jiang Li successfully broke out of the cocoon, they could safely retreat.

After diving 83,000 feet towards the bottom of the sea, Jiang Li indeed felt quite a bit of pressure, and the entire thick cocoon was pressed until it was wrinkled.

However, under this pressure, Jiang Li’s absorption speed of the egg white and merman power became faster.

This time, because Jiang Li had absorbed the power of the Reincarnation Egg and the merman race, his body needed to optimize too much, so the time it took was much longer than usual.

After another three days, the thick cocoon wrapped in black scales stirred.

The shiny black armor quickly faded, revealing a thick cocoon that was already covered in cracks. Then, the cocoon suddenly exploded, and a long black shadow darted out.

At first, the black shadow was only the size of a python. After breaking out of the cocoon, it circled around at high speed in the water. Every time it circled around, its body would grow by ten feet.

This black shadow had nine distinct features. It had four claws on its abdomen, five fingers on each claw, and 81 scales on its back that symbolized the number of perfection. Its body shone without light.

Its voice was grand and it had a beard. There was a pearl below its mouth, and a reverse scale near its throat… Apart from the fact that its tail did not have leaves, its entire body was pitch-black, and it had a small crystal crown on its head. It looked almost identical to Rayquaza.

This was the totem that the Human Emperor worshiped, the ruler of the hundred scaled beasts—Dragon!

It was a black dragon.

This dragon was none other than Jiang Li himself.

This Cocoon Break attempt had brought him a huge benefit. The dragon blood in his body had further purified, allowing him to master the Dragon Blood Transformation ability he had obtained from the Dragon Transformation Island.

However, compared to those cultivators who had entered the sect with mixed dragon blood, Jiang Li’s transformation could directly become a black dragon. It could fly into the sky and summon the clouds and rain, and its might was boundless, suppressing most of the other dragon bloodkin.

It could even be used like this.

The crystal crown on his head emitted a slight glow. The sea creatures in a large area of the surrounding sea surged towards him, and they formed a square formation in front of Jiang Li.

Jiang Li could instruct them to move in any direction he wanted.

He gained this talent from the mermen.

Moreover, due to the dragon blood and dragon pearl in his body, the effect he could form was far greater than even Natier.

After playing for a while, with a thought from Jiang Li, the Black Dragon’s body continuously shrunk. Not long after, it returned to its original appearance.

“This move is called the Black Dragon Transformation. This transformation can at least double my strength.”

“It’ll be a little troublesome if the people from the Dragon Transformation Island discover us. We have to be careful.”

After breaking out of the cocoon in the deep sea, Jiang Li’s body had absorbed the advantages and strength of the two races. Now, even if he transformed back to his main body, he could still breathe freely in the deep sea. The seawater and water pressure no longer posed any obstruction to him.

At this moment, his eyes were not pitch-black.

After stimulating the dragon blood, Jiang Li’s eyes could already capture the faint light emitted by some fluorescent creatures in the water. His nose had also become extremely sensitive, and he was able to smell any changes in the sea.

However, the most important thing was that Jiang Li’s ears had already recovered and he had adapted to capturing the sounds in the water under the high pressure.

Compared to air, the spread of vibrations in the water was actually more advantageous. The distance was farther, the speed was faster, and the sound was clearer.

Jiang Li reached out and snapped his fingers.

A vibrating ripple spread out from his fingertips. Everything that the ripple touched was reflected back. After being received by his ears, a clear image formed in his mind.

With the ability of the Bodhisattva Heart Sutra, he could completely achieve a better effect than the radar.

Through changing the frequency of sound waves, he could also become a human flesh ultrasonic scanner and probe the interior of some solid objects. It could be said to be very convenient.

However, now was not the time to test his ability. If Gallonron did not give up and came back, he would be unlucky.

He summoned the Yin Burial Coffin and enlarged it before grabbing the entire Black-Gold Heavy Iron Ball and putting it away.

With his strength, he could not move it at all.

After roughly checking that there were no other dangers around, he stuck to the seabed and planned to swim back to the shore.

However, he had only taken two steps when…

Jiang Li strangely stopped.

He paused for a few breaths of time.

Then, he scratched his head and looked behind him.

Although this sounded a little silly, he felt that something was summoning him in that direction.

It was very weak, but after confirming repeatedly that this summoning sensation indeed existed, it was not his imagination.

“Namur, do you feel anything?”

Jiang Li guessed that it was the newly obtained merman bloodline that allowed him to hear some special sounds in the sea.

However, Namur who was looking at him as if he was an immortal shook his head. He did not feel anything strange.

The merman prince’s eyes were still filled with the shadow of the black dragon from before.

How many years had it been? How many years had it been since the Dragon Race appeared?

His master was actually a dragon!!

The ruler of the hundred scaled beasts was not just for show. The creatures in the sea had a greater desire for the Dragon Race than the humans on land.

Namur’s emotions were very complicated and his expression could barely show it. However, since he had already eaten the spiritual root seed, and he was already Jiang Li’s loyal follower, there was no need to say anything.

He turned around and answered Jiang Li’s question.

This wily old fox in the sea was not optimistic about the so-called summoning sensation that Jiang Li felt.

“Lord, could this be a trap of some sea demons? Our mermaids often do this.”

Jiang Li looked at him helplessly.

The vast sea was really dangerous for humans.

Female mermen, which was the mermaid or siren in stories, would occasionally use their beauty and voice to flirt.

They would want to drag the people on the shore or on the ship down for food.

That sentence made Jiang Li raise his guard. However, this slight attraction always made him pay attention.

He decided to take a look.

After changing direction, Jiang Li swam far away from the shore.

In the sea, danger lurked everywhere.

In fact, Gallonron had just faced one earlier.

If Jiang Li encountered it, he might really be taken away.

Therefore, he had to be extremely careful. He could not enter the prey domain of those powerful sea monsters.

Fortunately, there was the tour guide beside him, Namur. He could tell Jiang Li what situations in the sea represented danger and what signals represented safety.

In addition, with the talent of the merman race, even if they could not control powerful sea beasts, they could still comfort and express goodwill to a certain extent.

Therefore, the merman race was actually rarely attacked while wandering in the sea.

They were relatively cautious when traveling in the sea, and their speed was not slow.

As they crossed the distance, the surface of the sea gradually showed a downward slope. The deeper the sea water went, the quieter the world became.

After snapping his fingers in the water again, Jiang Li stopped above a gorge in the sea.

The feeling of attraction was getting stronger.

The thing that summoned him should be below this canyon.

The vibrations of the voice entered, but there was no response for a long time. The valley in the Sea was very deep. Even the Bodhisattva Heart Sutra could not reach the bottom.

Could this be the nest of a huge sea monster?

“Go down and take a look.”

Jiang Li hesitated for a moment before summoning a few Armored Mermen who were already under his control and letting them scout ahead.

He and Namur followed far behind, slowly sinking.

The Dragon Imprisoning Lock was still fixed to a rock mountain outside. Once there was a change, he would control and shorten it to pull himself and the falling object out as quickly as possible.

It was safe.

The Armored Mermen who scouted the way reported safe information. Jiang Li also discovered that the creatures in the canyon were even fewer than other places.

This also meant that there should be something below the canyon.

In the canyon, after diving for another 20,000 feet, the speed at which the armored mermen and Namur dived became slower and slower for some reason.

At first, they did not notice it. Later on, they discovered that after reaching a critical point, they could no longer control their bodies to dive.

It was as if something was resisting their approach.

However, Jiang Li, who was swimming with them, did not feel this way.

“Lord, I had that feeling when you transformed into a dragon just now.” Namur spoke hesitantly.

When he heard this, even if it was in the deep sea, Jiang Li’s eyes lit up. Could it be that if he wanted to enter this gorge, he had to possess dragon blood of a certain purity or above, or perhaps he simply had to possess the Dragon Pearl?

In that case, wouldn’t it be very likely that there was a dragon ruin below this canyon?

If it was a Dragon Palace, wouldn’t he be rich?
