The Witch Hunter System

Shortly after Narvim left everything and fled, Vaan smiled wryly before deciding to check out the mana stone chest first.

Being a simple interspatial storage mana tool, the mana stone chest did not require instructions on its usage.

Vaan just unsealed the lock and opened the chest like any other normal chest.

Inside the chest was a large warehouse containing numerous mana stones that could easily reach hundreds of thousands.

However, the most important point wasn’t the sheer number of mana stones but their sizes and qualities.

The most ordinary mana stones were the common low-rank mana stones the size of grains and pellets.

On the other hand, the smallest mid-rank and high-rank mana stones were at least the size of a fist. The biggest mana stone was comparable to his own body size. Its value could easily reach the millions.

Nevertheless, this was only Narvim’s wealth, the poorest of the nine Peak Lords. The other dragon lords undoubtedly had even more mana stones.

It was hard to say how far he could advance his Aura Cultivation with such wealth.

After Vaan finished inspecting the mana stones, he returned his attention to the memory crystal, which was the size of a watermelon.

It may have been small for Narvim but definitely not for him.

He picked the memory crystal with both hands and pressed his forehead against the side with three overlapping circles per Narvim’s instruction.

In that instant, Vaan’s consciousness was sucked into the memory crystals. He found his mind inside an empty white space with three dozen bubbles floating around him.

At the same time, each bubble contained a memory of a single dragon performing a particular set of physical exercises.

When Vaan focused his mind on a single memory bubble, rows of texts in glowing golden light appeared, recording the name and detailed instructions of the physical exercise.

Vaan memorized everything with a glance and watched the memory recording from start to finish before moving on to the next memory bubble.

Ding!

<Your knowledge of the Dragon Tongue has increased>

< You have memorized Basic-level Swift Dragon Exercise>

…

As Vaan perused the memory bubbles, he learned the dragon exercise and improved his proficiency in the dragon language simultaneously, killing two birds with one stone.

Ding!

<Your knowledge of the Dragon Tongue has increased>

< You have memorized Intermediate-level Swift Dragon Exercise>

…

Ding!

<Your knowledge of the Dragon Tongue has increased>

< You have memorized Expert-level Swift Dragon Exercise>

…

Ding!

<Your knowledge of the Dragon Tongue has increased>

< You have memorized Basic-level Tyrant Dragon Exercise>

…

Sometime later, Vaan finished memorizing all twelve dragon exercises, which were divided into basic, intermediate, and expert levels.

Ding!

<Dragon Tongue proficiency has reached 5000 points>

<Dragon Tongue (Low-rank) → Dragon Tongue (Mid-rank)>

…

Although Vaan memorized everything, he didn’t actually learn them all, as the dragon texts contained some unfamiliar words.

However, the visual record of the physical exercises greatly helped him fill in the blanks and raise his proficiency in the dragon language.

Ding!

<You have learned Swift Dragon Exercise>

<You have learned Tyrant Dragon Exercise>

<You have learned Immovable Dragon Exercise>

<You have learned Sky Dragon Exercise>

…

After reaching Mid-rank Dragon Tongue, Vaan completely understood all twelve dragon exercises, including the Fire Dragon God Exercise, the best physical exercise of the Red Dragon Clan.

“Hm, Narvim was right. These physical exercises don’t really have an effect on me due to the contrasting physique between humans and dragons,” Vaan muttered after testing a few sets of physical exercises.

Although they worked to some degree, the effects were limited. However, that didn’t mean the newly acquired knowledge was useless.

Vaan had grasped the essence of every physical exercise and also gained a thorough understanding of the dragons’ physique, becoming the most knowledgeable person in the Red Dragon Clan regarding their physical training.

In other words, he became the most competent teacher in imparting the knowledge of physical exercises to other dragons without mistakes.

Nevertheless, that wasn’t his purpose for learning the dragons’ physical exercises.

Ding!

<You have compiled the essence of the twelve dragon exercises and created a new dragon exercise, the Formless Dragon God Exercise>

Formless Dragon God Exercise wasn’t much better than the Fire Dragon God Exercise, but any improvement was still an improvement.

That said, the Formless Dragon God Exercise wasn’t actually an improved version of the Fire Dragon God Exercise.

Instead, it was more accurate to call it an optimized version.

The Fire Dragon God Exercise was simply outdated for the current dragons of the Red Dragon after altering their physiques to adapt to the present world.

Vaan still had a long way from being able to create a higher-rank physical exercise for the dragons on the spot.

Nevertheless, he wasn’t finished after creating the Formless Dragon God Exercise.

Ding!

<You have compiled the cumulative knowledge and essence of dragon exercises and aura cultivation to create a high-rank aura circulation method, Way of the Formless Dragon>

…

=====

[Way of the Formless Dragon (High-rank) (Aura circulation method)]

Overview: An original aura circulation method created by combining the cumulative insight of physical exercises and aura cultivation.

Humans training in this aura circulation method can gain the physical might and defensive physique of a dragon without losing their original form and root.

Furthermore, their aura will also gain dragon traits, becoming dragon aura.

The upper limit of training is currently unknown.

=====

After Vaan created the Way of the Formless Dragon, there was no better opportunity to test it than the present.

As such, Vaan quickly pocketed a large quantity of mana stones into his Heaven-Swallowing Space and moved to a more spacious and open area within the cave to commence his aura cultivation.

Unlike the Way of the White Tiger, he couldn’t absorb and circulate the mana using the system.

The Way of the Formless Dragon required him to absorb mana, circulate it, and perform a particular set of physical exercises simultaneously for the desired result.

Ding!

<Your aura power has increased by 20 points>

<Your aura power has become denser>

<Your aura power has gained draconic traits>

<Dragon aura has been produced>
