63 Chapter 62: One heaven-defying abilities after another! (2/2)
Duan Li chuckled a little bit at that dazed look of the Komodo. ”So now, what are you going to do? Will you stay here?” asked Duan Li.
”No. I will try to find my way back to the second region, that is where my home truly is!” replied the Komodo with excitement as it has been trapped inside this accursed chamber for 20 years after being kidnapped!
”I see! Until next time then!”
The Komodo nodded its head as it slithered towards the exit with anticipation in its eyes.
”Finally! I'm free!” it said to itself.
However, the sad reality quickly slammed him on the head.
BANG!
A barrier appeared as it knocked the Komodo away, tumbling it onto the ground.
”No! No! No! This is impossible! Why can't I get out? The binding contract should have been settled the moment the puzzle was completed! Why?!” the Komodo howled out with extreme indignance asthe final hope it had, shattered like a broken mirror being smashed onto the ground viciously.
Duan Li whom witnessed this scene could feel the emotion running amok through the Komodo right now. He shook his head as he sighed in lamentation.
But then, a sudden thought struck at him as he asked the sword that was beside him. ”Little sword, is it possible to store living things inside my spatial ring?”
”Eh? Well usually, it would definitely not work out. With a normal spatial ring, it could only store inanimate object inside it. However, to store living organism, I guess trying, shouldn't be an issue since it would just fail if it doesn't work and wouldn't kill them.” explained the sword as it contemplated for awhile.
Hearing this answer, it was like what Duan Li had thought. Even back then when he had a high quality spatial ring, he could also not store any living things inside. But, with the enhancement from the mysterious pearl, there might still be some hope left for the Komodo!
Duan Li approached the Komodo once more as he explained out. Deciding to try the method, Duan Li willed for the spatial ring to store the Komodo inside it.
Whoooshh!
”HAHA! It worked!” shouted Duan Li in excitement! This would mean that he had another heaven-defying ability!
Suppressing the joy within him, he remembered something as he asked the sword, ”Little sword, bring me the monster core of the Salamander if it was still intact!”
”Roger that young master!” the sword shot forward with haste. After a short while, the sword brought back on what seems to be a giant monster core of 1 metre in diameter!
”This is even bigger than the core of the Earthly golem!” without wasting anymore time, Duan Li sat down cross-legged and cultivated the monster core.
Woonggg!
The monster core of Salamander was of the fire attribute. Thus, after being cultivated by Duan Li, it merged together with the fire attributed monster core inside his dantian that he got from the Unenlagias.
Wooongg!
The resulting combination of the two of them was an egg-like shape monster core, similar to the Earth attribute monster core, before it cracked open to reveal a little worm that called itself the Earth dragon, Dilong of the Earth Origin spirit!
Waiting nervously, Duan Li could finally see cobwebs-like lines slowly appearing on the egg.
”Its finally happening!” said Duan Li in agitation.
Crack!
With the shells finally cracked open, a blinding flash of light emerged from it, revealing a small silhouette that looks quite familiar to Duan Li as his mouth opened wide.
He had seen this thing many times before in the Xuan village!
Not to mention, he even had the occasionof chopping their heads off several times to cook for dinner!
This!
”A chicken?” said Duan Li with both his eyebrows and lips twitching.
Seeming to heard what Duan Li had just called him, the 'chicken' quickly responded with a displeased tone.
”Master, I am not a chicken! I am the Fire Origin Spirit, Zhulong the Fire dragon!” the chicken said as it puffed its chest with a haughty style.
Hearing this, Duan Li didn't know what to make out from this situation anymore as he just shook his head and sighed helplessly.
”It appears that even all the mighty dragons from the legends has such a humble beginnings...” said Duan Li.
Nodding his head, Duan Li made a small talk with Zhulong before he introduced it to Dilong. He then retracted his consciousness to leave them with their conversations.
Duan Li opened his eyes as his brows creased together.
”Hey little sword, I've managed to complete the puzzle, yet we are still here, was there something else that we missed?” asked Duan Li.
”This had me confused as well Young master! Let me have a look around. Little dog, come with me!” beckoned the sword towards the cub.
”Arrrff! Arrff!” the cub leaped on top of the sword as they bolted forward to look around the chamber.
”Hmm.. perhaps I should use my new ability to scan around since I'm currently still injured..” said Duan Li as he cupped his chin.
'Tetra Unsealing activate!'
Woongg!
Duan Li's vision flashed green before all sorts of unnecessary details were filtered out and replaced by grid lines instead.
As he scanned through every nook and cranny of the chamber, he turned towards the towering stone pedestal before he could see something inside it!
”What is that?”
...
