Chapter 164: Chapter 164: The Ten Thousand Mountains, the True Form of the Azure Dragon
Johnnie was under the Seal Demon Spell, but it didn’t prevent him from leveling up or gaining experience normally. His strength wasn’t affected either.
And there were other ways to remove it, like killing a god-level powerhouse.
At his current strength, killing a god was just a fantasy.
But he had Maiev by his side, a Goddess of Life, and Dorian also wanted to team up with him to kill Pluto.
If he could kill Pluto, he could easily get rid of the Seal Demon Spell on himself.
Johnnie stopped dwelling on the issue. The most important thing now was to complete the task of the Ruins of the Four Sacred Beasts.
Smith warned."Adventurer, the place where the Azure Dragon is asleep is deep in the mountains three thousand kilometers east of the city. You should be able to sense the exact location once you enter. This quest is very difficult. If you can’t complete it, don’t force yourself. You can still pass the ruins’ trial by repairing the Azure Dragon Array."
"Relax, I’ll awaken the Azure Dragon." Johnnie said confidently.
Although repairing the Azure Dragon Array was a good reward, it didn’t have any extra rewards. His goal was to get the Azure Dragon Pill.
Smith handed him the Blood Spirit Pearls collected by the soldiers—over half a million of them. The soldiers hadn’t hidden any.
Johnnie said his goodbyes and left immediately, flying with the Controlled Sword toward the deep mountains where the Azure Dragon was.
Outside the Azure Dragon City, a large number of Blood Spirits were wandering, making the area almost deserted.
Johnnie saw these creatures and his expression lit up. He flew high in the air and used the Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords, mercilessly slaughtering them.
Each Blood Spirit dropped a Blood Spirit Pearl.
The Red Carp was summoned, gathering and refining the Blood Spirit Pearls.
After the battle, the Red Carp had refined a large number of Blood Spirit Pearls, and her Health points had increased by tens of thousands.
Johnnie didn’t care about that. Her increased strength would better protect him.
Soon, all the Blood Spirits in the area were wiped out.
Johnnie also landed on the ground, cleaning up the battlefield and collecting Blood Spirit Pearls.
"Master, this is like a paradise for stacking Health points." The Red Carp handed him thousands of Blood Spirit Pearls she had collected, and sighed.
Johnnie agreed and nodded, he even didn’t want to leave this hidden realm anymore.
But he had the Illusory Body, and the map of the Dark Forest had marked the location of the Azure Dragon ruins. He could come back anytime.
"Let’s go, first finish the ruins examination." Johnnie looked at the scattered Blood Spirits in the distance, not in a hurry to slaughter them, and headed toward the deep mountains Smith had mentioned.
The Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords flew at high speed.
After an hour, Johnnie arrived at the deep mountains.
But he was stunned.
The mountain ranges rose and fell, stretching endlessly, impossible to see the end.
The Ten Thousand Mountains — finding the Azure Dragon that was asleep in them would be quite a challenge, right?
Johnnie furrowed his brow and summoned The Red Carp, asking."The Red Carp, can you sense the aura of the Azure Dragon?"
The Red Carp had passed through the Dragon Gate and transformed into a dragon, so she was also part of the dragon race. She might be able to sense the location of the Azure Dragon.
She shook her head, helplessly."Master, the Azure Dragonsir probably sealed his own aura. I can’t sense it."
This was a problem.
Johnnie was helpless. It seemed he would have to slowly search the deep mountains.
[Ding, you are affected by the Azure Dragon’s domain, losing 1 million Health points per second]
-791130
Johnnie’s head flashed with damage numbers, and he was instantly killed.
Then he immediately respawned.
Johnnie’s face changed slightly, and he immediately retreated.
Even so, he was instantly killed twice.
Were all these mountains part of the Azure Dragon’s domain?
Johnnie looked at the endless mountains and swallowed hard.
He finally understood why Smith had said this quest was so difficult.
The Azure Dragon’s domain suppressed everything. It was hard to move forward. He couldn’t even last a second with his current Health points.
And unlike the magma in the Phoenix ruins.
Within the mountains, there was no life other than plants.
It was impossible for him to increase his Wood Elemental Gift, and he hadn’t seen any Sub-Dragon-type monsters.
"Only way is to increase Health points." Johnnie sighed, not daring to step into the deep mountains, and took out a large number of Blood Spirit Pearls from his pack, beginning to refine them.
Blood Spirit Beast Wave had attacked before, and he had collected over 700,000 Blood Spirit Pearls, which he hadn’t had time to refine yet.
If he refined them all, he could gain over 700,000 Health points.
Johnnie had The Red Carp guard him, sat cross-legged, and began refining the Blood Spirit Pearls.
[Ding, you are refining a Blood Spirit Pearl, Health points +1]
...
The prompt messages kept coming. Refining Blood Spirit Pearls was easy.
But the refining speed was still too slow. Johnnie tried it and immediately started refining in bulk.
Refining thousands of Blood Spirit Pearls at once was effortless.
His Health points were skyrocketing.
However, within just a dozen minutes, he refined all the Blood Spirit Pearls, and his Health points increased to 1.67 million.
For a player in this era, that was already a terrifying number.
"It’s still not enough." Johnnie thought, recalling the terror of the Azure Dragon’s domain. This amount of Health points would only last two seconds.
Even if he could respawn, he couldn’t afford the threat of dying.
"The Red Carp, let’s hunt Blood Spirits first." Johnnie decided to keep slaughtering them, collecting Blood Spirit Pearls, and increasing his Health points.
"Sure." The Red Carp was also very excited.
Inside the Azure Dragon ruins, there were countless Blood Spirits.
It was said they were all created by the Crimson Soul Demon, who could keep producing these weak Blood Spirits endlessly.
Blood Spirits weren’t very strong, and their attack method was simple — self-explosion, dealing over 500,000 damage.
But that was nothing to Johnnie, who could fly.
Another day passed, and he slaughtered a huge number of Blood Spirits, collecting over 500,000 Blood Spirit Pearls.
There were plenty of Blood Spirits in the wild, but they weren’t concentrated, unlike during a siege.
"Adding another 500,000 Health points should be enough." Johnnie calculated. Two million Health points would be enough to last three seconds. He also had a life-recovery technique, Heavenly Rain, which would let him survive four or five seconds. freēwēbnovel.com
If he summoned his Demon Wing and flew at full speed, he could fly thousands of meters in five seconds.
The mountains stretched on endlessly, but as long as he could locate the Azure Dragon, he could get close quickly.
Johnnie took a deep breath, summoned his Demon Wing, cast a Rain of Mercy spell for continuous healing, and directly flew into the deep mountains.
[Ding, you are affected by the Azure Dragon’s domain, losing 1 million Health points per second]
-1,000,000
Johnnie’s head flashed with damage numbers, but he didn’t care. He focused on a direction, flapped his massive Demon Wing, and flew hundreds of meters in an instant.
[Ding, you were killed by the Azure Dragon’s domain. Special rule protection: you have respawned in place]
The prompt came, and Johnnie’s Health points dropped to zero. He was instantly revived the next second.
He didn’t hesitate at all and kept flying into the deep mountains with all his might.
"Ah, I felt it!"
Johnnie’s expression lit up. He finally understood why Smith had said that once you entered the deep mountains, you would feel where the Azure Dragon was.
Because the domain pressure there was even stronger, and it even affected his flying speed.
Johnnie was killed over and over again, but he didn’t care. He flew straight toward the source of that powerful pressure.
His flying speed got slower and slower, and the number of times he was killed increased.
"Damn it!"
He was angry in his heart. If this continued, he might not even be able to fly anymore.
Johnnie felt his head spinning — his mental power was almost at its limit.
"Better log off." he thought. He couldn’t take it anymore and decided to log out.
The Azure Dragon’s domain, like the magma in the Phoenix ruins, wouldn’t affect him when he logged off.
But the Azure Dragon’s domain was even more terrifying. There were no Wood-elemental monsters here, and no way to reduce damage — he had to just endure it.
After logging off, Johnnie immediately found Atlas and Lina and had them help restore his mental power.
Being killed repeatedly was too much for him to handle.
"Johnnie, you’re in danger again?" Lina asked, worried. Although she and Atlas could help him recover his mental power, repeated deaths still had some damage.
Johnnie explained."I’m working on a special mission. Don’t tell Crysic."
"Okay, but you can’t be so reckless in the future." Lina warned.
Johnnie nodded and turned to Atlas, saying."Senior, thanks for your help."
"It’s nothing. But Lina’s right — even with mental recovery techniques, you can’t be so reckless. When you have time, I’ll teach you some cultivation techniques. Your current strength should allow you to quickly reach the Body-Refining Realm." Atlas warned.
Johnnie was strong, but all his power came from game attributes merging — he wasn’t an Immortality Cultivator yet.
"Okay." he nodded, also a bit excited.
The two said no more, and helped Johnnie recover his mental power.
He logged back into the game.
[Ding, you are affected by the Azure Dragon’s domain, losing 1 million Health points per second]
The prompt came, and Johnnie’s Health points dropped quickly.
He didn’t dare to be careless. He immediately cast Heavenly Rain to continuously heal himself and rushed forward into the deep mountains.
The pressure around him was strong. He could no longer fly.
Repeated deaths, followed by resurrection.
Johnnie had now reached the core area of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
According to his senses, the Azure Dragon should be nearby, but he still couldn’t find it.
"Master, it’s this mountain range!" Dragon Patterned Sword flew out, and The Red Carp’s voice came through.
The Azure Dragon’s domain pressure prevented her from appearing.
"Mountain range?" Johnnie was stunned, and then realized, his expression turned shocked.
This mountain range stretching hundreds of miles was actually the Azure Dragon’s body.
It was way too big!
"Can you confirm the location of the dragon’s head?" he asked.
The Azure Dragon had been wounded in the chest. If he got the direction wrong and ran to the tail, he’d waste a lot of time.
The Red Carp sensed for a moment and said."Master, it’s right in front of you."
Johnnie nodded and ran straight ahead.
His Health points were emptied, and he was immediately killed, then respawned the next second.
He kept moving forward, caught in a cycle of death and rebirth.
Even with Atlas and Lina helping him recover his mental power, he was still struggling.
Johnnie didn’t know how many times he had died. Finally, he reached the end of the mountain range.
A tall mountain peak, with a shape that vaguely resembled a dragon’s head.
"Abdominal wound!" Johnnie locked in on a collapsed valley just below the dragon’s head. There was black-red blood flowing within the valley, and the surrounding area was completely red, with no grass or plants growing.
