Chapter 430: Second Metamorphosis, Silvermoon Alpha

“Raaaaagghhh!” The Wolf King Ju Mu raced like a lightning bolt right for the Bartender The prihter, and in the blink of an eye the Avenue fighter found himself face to face with an enormous red wolf’s jaws

So fast! Surprise flashed through the Bartender’s eyes, and he retreated as quick as he could As he went back, his ar filled sound A roar, like twin dragons

Terful beaht erupted froht was surrounded by a hazy mist of crystals, while the air around the red bea powers, both equally bleak for his enelacier

Booooooom–!

The explosion was followed by a deluge of energy It struck Ji Mu so hard the dark pupils in his yellow eyes contracted The forcepenetrating deep to his qi and blood

But he was a shi+fter! Adapting was his specialty A dark crimson aura spread out from the surface of his body, and it made him look even darker and e the bea terrible claws aglow in golden light

The Bartender narrowed his eyes but stopped the retreat He couldn’t go any further back or he’d be against the ring’s far border That was a bad position to be in He crouched, and the raging powers separated to either side of hions – one red, one blue – could faintly be discerned weaving in and out of reality behind him

The Wolf King’s swipe cah the air, and the Bartender threw his arolden claere held fast against the Bartender’s foreared fro the blade-like claws between thee and launched therew louder and itated

The higher they rose the stronger the Bartender’s influence beca red and blue surrounded the wolf’s claws first, then spread over all of Ju Mu’s body His had was cramped like it’d be electrified, latched firmed to his enemy’s arm He ept up with the Bartender, powerless to extricate himself

The two dia to drill in to the Wolf King’s body The energy itself was frightening, bringing with it an ominous aura of doohter, he knew that the Bartender’s gifts were greater than his own However, he thought his rank advantage would h, the Avenue representative felt unstoppable and indestructible His attack hadn’t even left a mark

Surprised or not, it didn’t slow hied his powers outward and expelled the infectious powers from his body He tore at the Bartender with his free hand and struck hied the Wolf King free to fall to the ground

The Wolf King had been taken by surprise, but the Bartender was no less startled The ability he’d just used was called Rise of the Twin Dragons, and it turned the explosive nature of his Discipline inward The implosion doubled his power for a short time and made him nearly invulnerable The only attacks that could penetrate his defense had to surpass his own strength three times over

It was one of his most powerful and effective tricks, one that required a bit of protogenic knowledge towas far less affected by it than he’d thought The beast even had the strength to purge the dual Disciplines beforehand Instead of continuing to join as the Bartender’s poereshattered them

However, the Bartender hadn’t relied on luck to get so high in the tournament ladder His reaction was quick as the lycanthrope’s

The sound of screeching dragons never ceased Before the Wolf King’s eyes the Bartender stretched and grearped in to a two-headed dragon sevenThe scaly mythical beast was split evenly down the middle, one half red and one half blue

Icefire Wyvern, metamorphosis!

Ji Mu’s pupils contracted He’d never met an Adept with this Discipline before, but he could tell right away that he was very strong Few in the West were a match, he reckoned

But natural talent didn’t always reater an Adept’s potential the ress becah to new ranks, and it was often discovered that these Adepts rose quickly, but could spend years at later ranks caught in a bottleneck Ji Mu knew that true power ca Without one, you could never grow strong

The Wolf King’s clawed feet dug in to the earth, and he thrust his chest out as he thrust his head toward the heavens

“Aooorghouuuuuuuu!”

The bone-chilling howl rang through the air, and everything beneath the ring’s force shi+elds darkened as though night had fallen A full moon appeared above the crest of Ji Mu’s head, and it’s silvery light fell over him like a blanket
