Chapter 253: Chapter 52: Essence Blood; Offspring_2

Spell-like ability Transformation Technique is a bloodline inheritance magic that all Giant Dragons possess. The Silver Dragon might acquire this magic from the Juvenile Dragon stage, whereas the Black Dragon gets delayed until the Adult Dragon stage.

Nonetheless, all Giant Dragons will obtain this ability.

Because it’s a form of protection for the Giant Dragons.

The Transformation Technique truly reconstructs the Dragon Body and actively conceals one’s aura. Unless one has Mastery of Soul, it’s hard to recognize that the transformed life form is a Giant Dragon. This ability not only allows Giant Dragons to hide their enormous size but also makes them less conspicuous, thus preserving their dragon lives.

Many times, a large size is also a huge target.

This ability is definitely more needed by the Demon Dragon born in the Abyss, an extremely harsh environment, because there are too many formidable life forms in the Abyss that can threaten the Demon Dragon.

Diya Harut saw his master’s confusion and clarified with actions.

A flash of black light from the enormous forty-meter Demon Dragon, and the aura instantly vanished.

Udi, in Dragon-man form, hovered in mid-air and looked at the palm-sized ’black lizard’ on his shoulder, unsure of how to appraise it.

With his current Level 14 Spiritual Power as a Caster, he couldn’t see through this black lizard as an Abyssal Demon Dragon.

Still a robust, forty-meter, Upper Level bloodline Triangular Four-winged Abyss Demon Dragon.

"Master, this is our Abyssal Demon Dragon’s talent ability ’Shrinking’, which is different from the magic Shrinking Skill. Our Demon Dragon clan’s Shrinking talent can conceal all aura, Spiritual Power fluctuations, and hide internal energy. With this move, as long as our Demon Dragon clan doesn’t act thoughtlessly, our survival rate can greatly increase." The black little lizard on the shoulder spoke.

Udi clicked his tongue in wonder.

Coincidentally, he learned the magic ’Shrinking Skill,’ but as Diya Harut said, the magic Shrinking Skill doesn’t have effects like concealing aura. Its only effect is reducing body size ratio; Beginner shrinks twice, Mastery shrinks four times, Returning to Truth shrinks with unlimited multiples. However, if a body is too large, the energy cost for shrinking significantly increases.

But that’s normal, as Shrinking Skill is merely a Tier Three Support Type Spell. How could its effects compare to the Abyssal Demon Dragon’s Talent Magic?

During the conversation, time passed, and soon Udi’s Magic Storage Space was filled with Abyssal specialties.

He did a quick count—seventy-five High-Level Creatures and four Top-Level Creatures. Among them, the strongest was the Level 18 Abyssal Three-headed Dog, with a physique akin to a hill.

If Udi were hunting alone, he certainly wouldn’t have this efficiency. Diya Harut is different—it’s the area’s overlord, very familiar with many Abyssal Creatures’ hiding spots.

Its appetite isn’t as tremendous as Udi’s, only hunting one to eat when hungry, thus maintaining the ecosystem well.

Otherwise, Diya Harut couldn’t possibly eat so much for hundreds of years and keep reproducing.

Returning to the Great Rift Valley, in Diya Harut’s old lair.

Udi pondered for a moment and made a decision,

"Xiaoha, let’s forge another contract...."

Diya Harut was somewhat stunned, feeling a bit anxious inside—could it be thinking of signing an even harsher contract?

If that’s the case, it would definitely rebel.

Though the previous contract was a mount contract sounding disgraceful, it still retained a degree of freedom and maintained some dignity.

"Don’t make that face, I’m telling you, many desire to sign this contract, and I don’t even offer it." Noticing a hint of resistance from the mount Xiaoha, Udi became a bit displeased.

Under Diya Harut’s hesitant gaze, Udi manipulated a remarkably red, deep, akin to a top-grade Blood Red Crystal Stone droplet of blood, making it fly out.

This droplet of blood exuded astonishing power, even making Diya Harut’s expression serious and slightly surprised.

Recognizing it, he knew it was—Essence Blood.

For any flesh creature, Essence Blood is paramount. Losing too much Essence Blood may cause permanent power loss or deterioration in talent.

Of course, the amount of this dragon Essence Blood wouldn’t lead Udi to such side effects—at most making him weak for about a month.

Udi’s decision this time was a spur-of-the-moment idea.

In the Tal Plane over the past half-year, the war between the Crimson Nest and the human-led camp intensified. In this period, three Adult Dragons from the Crimson Nest fell, with more than twenty Master Level monsters, and close to two million monster army casualties.

While the human-led side also had considerable losses—one Ordinary Legendary was severely injured nearly to death, dozens of Master Level died, and over two hundred thousand ordinary Warriors fell.

Mondo also experienced several life-and-death crises on the battlefield; without the Giant Demon’s abnormal recovery ability, he probably would’ve died long ago. Of the over thirty thousand Black-winged Warriors sent, less than twenty thousand remain, showing the fierce casualties among such elite forces and indicating how brutal the war is.

Udi sensed the increasingly unstable intensity of the war.

Thus, after Diya Harut’s submission, he faintly developed this intention.

He needs a helper—a sufficiently strong helper—and though Diya Harut currently possesses Pseudo-Legendary battle strength, it’s still not strong enough to meet Udi’s expectations.
