Chapter 300 Dragon's Shadow
The silver dragon phantom condensed by the Barbarian Bone Breathing Technique was motionless, like a dead object.
Crown studied it for a long time, but couldn't find out what was so magical about it.
He slowed down his breathing technique and felt it quietly.
The Savage Bone Breathing Technique seized from the cultists only contained the practice methods for the first three stages. Now, if I want to continue practicing this breathing method, I can only slowly comprehend it and practice it by myself.
"Quack!"
There was the cry of a crow outside the window, and Fukin flew in holding Buster.
At this time, an accident happened.
The tightly closed eyes of the silver dragon shadow behind Clown suddenly opened. The crow felt as if it was being targeted by some natural enemy. Its wings could not support flight and it fell to the ground.
Buster's hair all over his body exploded, the hair on his upright tail also became fluffy, and he let out a fierce but cowardly roar.
"Meow"
The voice was powerless, more like a plea for help.
Crown opened his eyes suspiciously. He felt a strong sense of fear coming from his pets.
He passed his consciousness over and asked: "What's the matter?"
'What's behind you is scary.'
Fu Jin stammered as he conveyed his feelings, and Buster also conveyed the same message.
Klauen turned his head and stared at the mirror, and found that the blurry shadow of the silver dragon had become clear without him knowing when.
The dragon's whiskers swayed gently, its body swayed gracefully, and its silver scales had a jade-like luster.
His brows were furrowed and his consciousness began to dissipate.
Scary? Can it be used to intimidate the enemy?
These two pets are currently only at the second level. Will the Silver Dragon Shadow be effective against a third-level transcendent? He vaguely understood the function of the so-called bloodline shadow and stopped using the breathing method.
The silver dragon faded and disappeared, and the two pets returned to normal.
Seeing how cowardly his pets were just now, Crown chuckled.
Now is the time to train the beasts properly. We can't really keep them as pets!
The second level was too weak for him. Ever since he learned the art of flying, he didn't even need his pets to scout, he could do it on his own.
This won't work, he needs a powerful helper, and his pets should also have stronger strength to help him.
The Golden Light Dao Seeds need to be arranged as soon as possible. At the very least, they can be used as two machines for making Sun Flame Liquid and Moon Dew.
When Fu Jin saw his master's meaningful smile, he felt suddenly cold and inexplicably had a palpitation.
It spread its wings and flew out of the window.
"Meow," Buster's eyes flashed with cuteness. He didn't understand why the friend who always played with him would leave him alone.
The black cat jumped onto the windowsill and growled with resentment: "Meow."
Fu Jin heard his companion's cry, circled back, grabbed the black cat and climbed rapidly.
Crown narrowed his eyes slightly. In the past, he was busy improving himself and was a little casual in disciplining the trainers.
It seems that some serious treatment is needed now. He hasn't asked in detail what they felt yet, but unexpectedly the pets ran away.
He walked out of the room and called his valet:
"Let Melissa and Leah come to my room."
Melissa is a knight and Leah is a spirit master, both are second-level transcendents. He wants to try whether the blood shadow has different effects on different professions.
"Okay, wait a moment," Billy nodded and left quickly.
After a while, Melissa and Leah came here.
Melissa had beads of sweat on her forehead. She bowed and said carefully, "Sir, what can I do for you?"
During this period, the atmosphere of war in Hamers City became increasingly intense. She trained as hard as she could every day, while also strictly training the guards.
With no shortage of resources, her progress is visible to the naked eye.
She understood that after the war she would need to lead the guards through a sea of blood and corpses, because the bishop had revealed that a strong elite force was needed.
The stronger you are, the more likely you will survive on the battlefield in the future.
Clown nodded kindly and said with a smile:
"I learned a breathing method some time ago. Today I made some progress. I want you to try it out."
Melissa was stunned. Try it out? How to try it in the room? This is the bishop's bedroom. Although the space is not small, it is not suitable for fighting.
There was also a look of doubt in Leah's eyes.
Clown understood the two people's confusion, stood up from his chair, and said, "This breathing method can produce a kind of strange phenomenon. I called you here to let you feel whether this strange phenomenon has any additional effects."
As he spoke, he began to practice the Savage Bone Breathing Technique.
After the qi and blood were stimulated, a silver dragon condensed behind him again.
This time he saw from the mirror that after the virtual image of qi and blood was summoned, the originally blurry image immediately became clear. At the same time, the dragon's eyes opened and his body stretched.
When the silver dragon was clearly condensed, Melissa's heart began to beat rapidly, the hair on the back of her hands stood up, and goose bumps appeared on her arms because of fear.
She felt her breathing stagnate and subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away, but her legs felt weak and she was unable to take a step.
Leah is an elemental spirit master, and her mental power is much sharper than that of knights of the same level.
Compared to Melissa, she could feel more.
Invisible spiritual pressure emanated from the strange beast behind the bishop, affecting the flow of her magic power and no longer being as smooth as usual.
Mental attack skills? But why can't I feel any trace of casting?
She had seen Lannister cast spells, and even when it was a silver warlock casting a spell, she could feel the fluctuations of magic, but the fluctuations were very slight.
From the changes in their expressions, Clown realized that the Qi and Blood Illusion must have taken effect. He stopped practicing the breathing method and asked gently:
"What do you think? Speak one by one. Melissa, you go first."
Melissa glanced at the bishop with lingering fear, and when her eyes met the bishop's, she quickly looked away.
She lowered her head and organized her words:
"Sir, I feel fear rising from the bottom of my heart. I want to run away, but my body won't obey me.
That feeling, well, reminded me of when I was a kid and went hunting with my father, and we encountered a grizzly bear charging towards us.
At that time, I subconsciously wanted to escape, but my hands and feet were powerless. "
Klauen nodded slightly and looked towards the spirit master.
Leah coughed and tucked her hair behind her ears:
"Sir, I feel like I'm being attacked mentally. There's a strong aura suppressing me."
When the two finished speaking, Crown waved his hand and said, "I understand. You can go down."
"Goodbye," the two bowed and turned to leave.
When they walked downstairs, Melissa said:
"Your Excellency said that he gained this ability because he practiced the breathing method. Doesn't that mean that if I practice this breathing method, I will also gain such ability?"
Liya smiled and stretched out her voice: "In theory, yes, but in reality..."
People are different. Although both of them practice the church's fire breath, Her Excellency the Bishop is now a fourth-tier transcendent. However, there are many crusaders who have spent much more time on breathing techniques than Her Excellency, and now they are only second-tier transcendents like Her.
. . . .
Crown left the mansion and came to the central church.
"Why are you free to look for me today? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Nick was a little surprised. The other party had been busy recently and he couldn't see him anywhere.
"I seized a breathing method from a cultist some time ago. I practiced it and got some results. How about trying it out with you?"
Clown spoke in a kind tone. He didn't know what the use of the virtual image of qi and blood condensed by others when practicing the Barbarian Bone Breathing Technique was. The silver dragon he condensed was tested to be able to reduce the enemy's fighting will. He wanted to try whether this ability could work on a third-level transcendent.
"The breathing method of the cultists? Will there be any side effects?"
Clown curled his lips and cursed with a smile: "You are cursing me! What side effects can there be? These are just methods to strengthen the body."
Nick chuckled, knowing that he was overthinking.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
My friend is already a strong man at the silver level, and he can see the hidden dangers more clearly than I can.
"Okay, I'll change into my armor and wait for me at the training grounds."
"Not for now. It's right here. You just need to feel my breathing technique."
Crown stimulated the source of life, and the qi and blood condensed into a virtual image. The silver dragon stretched its body gracefully, and its eyes stared at Nick.
Nick's expression was solemn. He slowly approached the other person and then slowly distanced himself from him.
Half a minute later, Crown stopped practicing the breathing method and asked:
"How does it feel? How much effect does it have on you?"
“I feel an invisible aura spreading outward from you, suppressing the circulation of my holy power.
I tried to break free from this oppression, but I couldn't do it. I could only reduce its impact on me.
I guess I won’t be able to fully display my strength if I fight you.
I need to fight to know how much it can restrict me. Do I need to test it in actual combat?"
Nick was amazed at this ability and wanted to test it in actual combat.
The breathing technique was seized from the cultists, and he might encounter it in future wars.
There was one thing he didn't know: in order to condense the Qi and blood image through the Barbarian Bone Breathing Method, one had to reach at least the fourth level.
Only a powerful warrior with extraordinary talents can achieve this, and such a person is rare among the cultists.
If he really encounters a warrior who has condensed his qi and blood, it means that he is not far from death.
Crown nodded: "Okay."
He would love to be able to obtain more parameters of the Qi and Blood image.
"I'll call Fanny. More samples will allow for more accurate testing."
Nick laughed, actually he didn't want to lose too badly.
His friend was already a silver-level warrior, and if he went up alone, he would be giving himself away for nothing. Moreover, it had been nearly half a year since the other party reached the advanced level, so his strength must have improved by leaps and bounds.
The three of them came to the training ground. Clown was in casual clothes, while Nick and the other two were in full body armor, holding shields and flails.
Klauen stood in the center of the field, his left hand forward, and a round shield made of golden light appeared in his hand.
This is not a method used by the Fire Cube, but is composed of the Qi of Life.
He now has many abilities, but he has not used them much in battle. He plans to consciously practice the methods he knows, and now is a good opportunity.
"You attack, I defend."
After Clown finished speaking, he took a step forward and a golden halo spread from under his feet.
The entire training ground and nearby buildings were covered in a golden hue.
The sun is shining, sparkling.
Afterwards, he practiced the Savage Bone Breathing Technique and the dragon shadow condensed.
Nick felt a wave of warmth and said in surprise, "It feels good. This shouldn't be the effect of the cultists' breathing method, right?"
"Of course not. It's an ability awakened in the blood."
This is the golden light field, which can suppress and expel the law of pollution. For normal people, this field is like a safe haven and can even improve the state of normal people.
Fanny stomped the ground hard, her eyes full of solemnity.
She felt a law, like the scorching sun in the sky, burning away filth.
It is said that powerful creatures will integrate their abilities into their bloodlines, and their descendants, if they meet the conditions, will be able to naturally awaken the abilities of their ancestors.
It is said that this is a method only possessed by gods, and one must at least reach the seventh level of transcendence or the golden level of holy marks.
Fanny felt a flash of jealousy. Having a good family background was really important.
If Clown understood her thoughts at this moment, he would definitely tell her, "I have never relied on my ancestors to get to where I am today, but on my own efforts!"
Nick swung the flail, banging it against the shield. "Be careful."
He activated his holy power, and flame clouds lit up on his armor. At the same time, he threw out his shield and smashed it towards the target.
Fanny moved quickly to cooperate with him from another direction . Half an hour later, Nick waved his hand breathlessly:
"I don't want to play anymore. The gap is too big. Is the Silver Rank so strong?!"
He and Fanny attacked with all their might, but their holy energy was consumed very quickly. Not only did they fail to break through the opponent's defense, but they were exhausted first. His hands holding the shield were shaking constantly.
Clown smiled and said, "Of course a normal fourth-level transcendent is not as strong as me."
This is a very honest statement. He is now an abnormal fifth-level transcendent.
There was a hint of sigh in his words. When he and Nick first met, the other party was already a second-level exorcist priest, and he was just an ordinary person who had never stepped into the extraordinary realm.
Only three or four years have passed, and he is already a fifth-level transcendent, while the other party is only at the third level.
As time goes by, the gap between them will become bigger and bigger.
He paused, then continued, "To what extent can the dragon shadow condensed by the breathing method suppress your strength?"
Nick threw the shield and flail in his hands to the ground, with doubt in his eyes: "Close to 20%. It's not obvious to use holy power for defense, but when attacking, I clearly realized that the attack was much lower.
The cultists' breathing technique is so powerful? If all enemies are like this, then don't fight them, just run away, you can't beat them at all."
Fanny tilted her head and asked:
"When fighting against the cultists, how many cultists do you think reached your current abilities?"
She didn't think that many of the enemies had reached Clown's level. The other party was the bloodline of the Son of God who could gain abilities from bloodline.
Crown recalled for a moment and smiled:
“Don’t worry, most of the enemies I encountered were at the third level, and there was only one cultist who could condense a blood and qi phantom, and he was at the silver level.
Also, I have fought with two other silver-level cultists, also of the knight profession, and neither of them had the ability to condense Qi and Blood Phantoms.
I think that to condense Qi and Blood Phantom one must be at least at the Silver level."
And he is a very powerful silver rank, he added silently in his mind.
