This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome Chapter 880 - Absorbing Draconic Qi, Skyrocketing Power

Chapter 880: Absorbing Draconic Qi, Skyrocketing Power

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Draconic Qi contained within this Dragon Orb was immense. Its original owner must have been a very powerful Genuine Dragon who was way above the Consolidation Realm.
Hence, even a meager amount of Draconic Qi it exuded could prevail across time, alter the Jiao Dragon King and Jiao Dragon Queen’s constitution, allow them to undergo swift metamorphosis, and become overlords in the Tempest Ocean Realm.
Now that its power was being extracted by Lu Xuan with the correct secret arts, one could only imagine the force that could be unleashed.
Although it’s called a secret art, it could not really be considered a secret. Across the various worlds in the cosmos, there were many similar methods.
The life force of dragons was immense, but since ancient times, there had never been a shortage of warriors who aspired to be dragon slayers. From lower-class to upper-class worlds, there were countless of such people, and the entire life force of the Genuine Dragon was contained in this Dragon Orb.
Those who wished to obtain it were innumerable, and over countless years, this subsequently gave rise to many secret arts.
In this regard, even the dragons were helpless. Even if they pursued and killed such people, there was simply no end to their numbers.
Just like a defenseless child walking on the street with a bag of gold, the dragons were surrounded gazes filled with greed.
Under such circumstances, even they could not do anything about this.
Huge amounts of Draconic Qi poured into Lu Xuan’s body and were immediately absorbed by his cells.
Almost instantly, Lu Xuan’s body experienced a change. Dense scales began to grow. His eyes no longer resembled those of a human, but were now similar to the indifference and coldness of snakes.
This was the inevitable result of absorbing the Dragon Orb. The Draconic Qi was the essence of a Genuine Dragon.
After absorbing this Draconic Qi, one would naturally evolve into a dragon.
For serpent-type monsters like the Jiao Dragon King and Queen, evolving into dragons was only natural.
But that was not the case for Lu Xuan.
If humans evolved as such, they would become Dragonmen.
It could be regarded as a human’s evolutionary branch. Cultivation was the transitional stage of a lifeform, and as such, already a form of evolution.
Compared to science, cultivation could increase one’s power greatly without the need for generations of genetic improvements. One generation all it took to complete an earth-shaking evolution.
In an instant, bursts of golden light emitted from Lu Xuan’s cells, making him look like a deity cast in gold.
Within a fraction of a second, Lu Xuan’s power suppressed the metamorphism caused by the Draconic Qi and restored his human appearance.
But at the very next moment, scales began to appear on the surface of Lu Xuan’s body again.
It was amidst the constant alteration between becoming a Dragonman and reverting to a human that Lu Xian absorbed the essence.
were it any other ordinary person, they would have almost immediately turned into a half-human, half-dragon monster. However, Lu Xuan was different. With his born taoism aptitude, his ranking in the hierarchy of lifeforms was already above that of Genuine Dragons.
Not to mention, the Taixu Origin Power that Lu Xuan practiced was the most formidable power in the universe. With such power, even when facing an ocean of Draconic Qi, they could fight for dominance neck and neck.
When this happened to Lu Xuan in his previous life, the situation was pretty dangerous. But this time as a veteran, even as he was being hunted, it was a walk in the park.
“Boom!”
After absorbing a large portion of Draconic Qi, Lu Xuan’s aura skyrocketed. His skills received a huge boost compared to what they had been.
At the same time, the Jiao Dragon Queen, who was chasing after him, finally caught up.
“Prepare to die!”
The Jiao Dragon Queen’s bellowing roar shook the deep ocean and incited a terrible shockwave that swept in all directions. It even rose to the sea surface and stirred up monstrous waves.
Unceasing amounts of water cannons drew streak after streak in the deep sea, shaking the ground.
Lu Xuan turned around and unleashed a sky of fist shadows.
“Ka-boom!”
In the depths of the ocean, explosions erupted one after another.
All the water element magics unleashed by the Jiao Dragon Queen were blocked by Lu Xuan.
Each water cannon attack was on par with an entity of the Consolidation Realm striking at full force.
Yet now, they were easily stopped Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan simply gave up on fleeing and turned around to face the Jiao Dragon Queen.
“Very bold of you. I think you really do have a death wish!”
The Jiao Dragon Queen sneered. Rather than surprised, she was ecstatic seeing Lu Xuan turning back on the path he fled on.
With this, his death was inevitable.
The giant claws of the Jiao Dragon Queen descended upon Lu Xuan. A full-fledged attack by an ace at the Consolidation Realm was simply too powerful. Terrifying shockwaves rose to the sky, and a large area of sea water collapsed, waves rolling out all at once.
It was as if the skies had collapsed!
However, Lu Xuan remained expressionless. In an instant, his entire body glowed, and its brilliance rushed skyward. With the back of his hand, he greeted the attack with a punch.
“Boom!”
Dulled sounds, like the ringing of gold and steel, viciously collided.
The Jiao Dragon Queen remained motionless, and Lu Xuan’s body only trembled slightly before he stabilized himself again. The terrifying collision could not deal significant damage to them, the resulting shockwaves, however, resonated thousands of miles away.
One could imagine fearsomeness of their battle.
It was too terrifying!
Seeing the futility of her attacks, the Jiao Dragon Queen’s eyes were filled with shock and rage. The shocking thing was that Lu Xuan had been able to evade her blows completely.
Before this, although Lu Xuan could have also resisted the blow given his robust body, he would have taken quite a few steps backward. His skill obviously paled greatly in comparison to the Jiao Dragon Queen.
But in just a short amount time, he had progressed to a level where he could completely withstand the attack without recoiling.
The speed of his progress was simply astounding!
Evidently, he had already absorbed the Draconic Qi from within the Dragon Orb. This very thought had the Jiao Dragon Queen fuming with rage. Lu Xuan had gone too far!
After blocking this attack, Lu Xuan launched another one without even the slightest of hesitation.
A terrifying battle erupted. One of them was a Late-stage Consolidation Realm, the overlord of the overlords of the deep sea. The other one was an Intermediate-stage Consolidation Realm, but in terms of combat power, he was someone who could rival the Jiao Dragon Queen.
In a short period of time, the two sides exchanged hundreds of blows and created countless shockwaves in the deep sea. Many innocent deep-sea monsters in the distance were caught up in the waves and were instantly reduced into a cloud of blood.
The seawater within a radius of thousands of miles was dyed in the color of blood. Blood which belonged to the deep-sea monsters that were indiscriminately swept up in the shockwaves and blown to pieces.
In this area of the deep ocean, no one could tell how many fierce monsters were present. This collision simply filled every surrounding inch with blood.
Not a single one was left.
Usually, this was bound to attract countless sea monsters to fight for food. But right now, no creature would be bold enough to approach. Even the deep-sea overlords at the Consolidation Realm retreated as far as possible upon sensing the scale of this battle.
