Chapter 52: Blood of the Divine Dragon
After Jiang Feng had been killed, he entered the void in preparation for his resurrection.
When he was waiting, he did not wait idly by. He took out the Xuanyuan Sword fragment from the Qiankun Gourd.
Xuanyuan Sword Fragment: Most Powerful of the Ten Primordial Divine Artifact
Attributes: None.
The stats for the Xuanyuan Sword fragment was very simple and can be summed up in a few words.
“It’s just the same as the Donghuang Bell fragment, completely useless.”
Looking at the stats for the Xuanyuan Sword’s stats, Jiang Feng didn’t have much change in emotion at all, as if this was all in his expectations.
It looked like the Ten Primordial Divine Artifacts had mostly been destroyed, and have either become fragmented or become other equipment. They couldn’t use any of their overpowered abilities that early in the game, and he suspected that he had to wait until late game when they were restored. Only then would they begin to shine once again, and unleash their overpowering strength.
The Xuanyuan Sword fragments being useless were already in his expectations. After he had checked the stats, he then placed them back in the Qiankun Gourd.
While it was useless to him, keeping it meant that he could use it as a check and balance against the successor of the Divines’ destiny.
‘The moment I died, I think I remember hearing a system prompt, and I had obtained something from the flames.’ When he was slain, he had used Transmute Monster on the Earth-covered Dragon. He did not hear clearly what the system said. Remembering this, he quickly looked at the system prompt’s history.
Ding! System Prompt: Transmute Monster failed. Congratulations on obtaining Five drops of Dragon Blood.
What? He could still get things after he had failed the Transmute Monster?
Jiang Feng looked at the content of the System Prompt and could hardly believe it.
He opened the Spatial Bracelet and looked within it.
Only to see that within one of the slots in the Spatial Bracelet lay five drops of Dragon Blood in silence.
Divine Dragon Blood: Bloodline
It can be consumed by a pet to improve its bloodline. There’s a chance to increase its Rank.
“Haha, this is a good thing! I was just having a headache in trying to find ways to improve my bloodline! With these five drops of Divine Dragon Blood, my Dragon race Bloodline can be improved after I consume it!”
Jiang Feng became excited after he saw the stats for the Divine Dragon Blood.
These five drops of Divine Dragon Blood were from a pure dragon bloodline. It was very possible that it would allow his Dragon Race Bloodline and Purity to reach 100%. If that was the case, he only needed an evolution pill to become a dragon.
After his initial excitement, he looked at the time. It was already 6.30 a.m. He quickly logged out of the game.
After washing himself up, he made and had breakfast then went back into the game. Today was a weekend, and he had no classes this weekend, so there was no need for him to go back to class.
***
Once he had returned to the game, he was already revived. When he revived, the system automatically helped him choose a location to revive in. And that was the top of the steep cliff.
Looking down from the cliff and seeing the heavy mist, he smiled and muttered, “Thank you, gnomes!”
With that, he found a place where no one would pass by and took out a drop of Divine Dragon Blood.
One drop of Divine Dragon Blood was the size of an egg. It was hot to the touch and was also slightly heavy.
He consumed the Divine Dragon Blood without any hesitation.
After he had consumed it, he could feel his body become hot. And it was a very terrible feeling.
Roar!
He roared loudly as he suffered.
Next, he began to lose his fur and scales began to cover them. The dragon antlers began to grow somewhat longer.
Ding! System Prompt: As you have consumed the Divine Dragon Blood, your Earth elemental resistance has increased by 10%. Dragon race bloodline has reached 100%, purity has reached 60%.
‘Purity had only reached 60%? Let’s try one more!’
After hearing the system’s voice, he frowned and took out another drop of Divine Dragon Blood and consumed it.
Ding! System Prompt: As you have consumed the Divine Dragon Blood, your Earth elemental resistance has increased by 10%. Dragon race bloodline had reached 100%, purity had reached 100%.
“It’s done!”
After it had consumed the second drop of Divine Dragon Blood, its purity had finally reached 100%, and he became elated.
“With that, I can become a dragon when I next use an Evolution Pill!”
Once he imagined that he could soar in the Nine Heavens as a dragon, he was so thrilled and excited that he wished he could get another Evolution Pill right there and then.
Just as he was being excited, he suddenly heard a chain of announcements from the system. They were even written in the skies to congratulate the forming of a guild.
Ding! System Announcement: Congratulations to player “Shen Ye” for forming the “Myth Guild.” As the first player to have formed a guild, 500 reputation points and 100gp were awarded. All players are welcome to join!
Ding. System Announcement: Congratulations to player “Ling Yun” for forming the “Lingyun Pavillion.” As the second player to have formed a guild, 200 reputation points and 50gp were awarded. All players are welcome to join!
Ding. System Announcement: Congratulations to player “Hao Tian” for forming the “Tianxia Gang.” As the third player to have formed a guild, 100 reputation points and 10gp were awarded. All players are welcome to join!
...
“Heavens. Even though building a guild only required the Guild Proof, one of those Guild Proof requires 10,000gp. How could they gather so many gold pieces in such a short time?”
Building a guild in this game was very simple. One only needed a Guild Proof, and a Guild Proof was worth 10,000gp.
As the Banking Exchange Service hadn’t been activated yet, getting so many gold pieces was extremely difficult.
“Looks like they must have offered a high price to buy the gold pieces in the game. In order to get the reputation of being the first guild, all of them were really willing to spend money.”
After giving it a thought, he then found the answer.
The number of players in this game had reached twenty million. All of these players had some gold on them. All they needed was to offer a high price for these gold pieces, and it wouldn’t be difficult to get ten thousand gold pieces.
In less than a minute, a dozen guilds had been formed. And he smelled the scent of gunpowder in the air.
After the guild had been formed, the next thing to do was to build a Guild Base.
Building a Guild Base required the Guild-Building Order. These guilds would most probably find information on Level 35 bosses so that they could farm for the Guild-Building Order.
But to Jiang Feng, whoever built the guilds had nothing to do with him, Most importantly, he needed to quickly increase his level and take back his position as the top leveled character in the leaderboard.
As he died once, his level had dropped to Level 14. He had already dropped out of the Level Leaderboard and can no longer enjoy the benefits given to the top.
“Let’s go leveling!”
And he ran towards the outside of the Crouching Dragon Range.
As his Polymorph cooldown hadn’t ended, he couldn’t polymorph to return to the city, so he had to run his way back.
Only after running for half an hour did he arrive at the territory owned by the Level 14 Blackpatterned Panther.
Ding! System Prompt: Canaan has invited you to join the “Canaan Guild.” Will you accept?
A guild invite appeared in front of him when he had just released Yanhu and Heifeng from the Qiankun Gourd and was ready to go kill some monsters.
He didn’t give it any thought and clicked on no!
“If I hadn’t seen you, I would probably agree and use the guild to earn some side income. Unfortunately, you are too clever and have become a threat to my identity. I’m sorry,” Jiang Feng muttered under his breath. He did not look at the messages sent by Canaan afterward as he licked his lips and started killing monsters.
What he did not know was that his rejection of joining Canaan’s guild invitation was a heavy blow to her.
