Chapter 134 Chapter 134
Time and Space Lock, as the name suggests, is a powerful confinement skill that can block a space to a certain extent.
Unlike the "Soul Lock" skill which emphasizes precise positioning, it has a wider range of action and is effective against groups of enemies in the area at the same time. Therefore, at the moment when Lord Fengluo activated the skill, both the Erosion Mountain Ape and the Prison Lock felt the air around them become stagnant.
Invisible ice and snow covered their bodies, freezing their limbs and chains. The ubiquitous spatial debris also gathered and collided with the ochre-colored profound energy released by the Erosion Ape's fist, exploding into clusters of shining sparks.
The Eclipse Ape and the Prison Suppressor Lock exchanged a glance, and for the first time, a cautious look appeared in their eyes.
[This power... is wrong. Is it drawing on the power of space?]
The two mysterious beasts had extremely rich combat experience and were much more familiar with the alien space than Xia Muqing and the others. They quickly noticed clues from the space fragments that gathered like fireflies and the faint vibrations of heaven and earth.
The "Space-Time Lock" skill cleverly overlapped with the seventh area's self-enclosed spatial power, allowing Lord Feng Luo to mobilize forces that he could not control. This is why this skill unleashed such powerful force that even the Erosion Mountain Ape and the Prison Lock felt the noticeable impact!
“Huahua…”
[No, brother, attack the dog!]
Mountain Erosion Ape: "Throat!"
The Eclipse Mountain Ape turned around, and the pale yellow profound energy once again gathered into a wave. At the same time, the black palm print of the "Soul Locking" skill quickly faded from Guan Yun's body and instead drilled onto the snow-white back of Feng Luo Lord's neck.
However, Lord Fengluo's reaction speed far exceeded Zhenyusuo's imagination.
The characteristic "Danger Sense" was activated, and it almost instinctively jumped away. At the moment of dodging, the tips of Feng Luo Lord's ears twitched violently a few times - its hearing was excellent, and the slightest sound of wind flashed past its ears.
It is extremely thin and light, like a needle brushing against the edge of hair, or like a fallen leaf floating gently on the ground.
The black palm print failed to leave a mark, and the "Soul Locking" skill failed to activate.
Xia Muqing's mind raced, and she suddenly spoke, "The Soul Locking skill can't be located out of thin air. It requires conditions to activate—Xiao Feng, it's an invisible weapon, right?"
As soon as the words fell, the expressions of the people and mysterious beasts present suddenly became stern.
The Prison Suppressor was covered in chains, and his expression could not be seen, but his instantly gloomy temperament still cheered everyone up.
Before it could do anything, Guan Yun quickly understood what Xia Muqing meant and shouted, "Witch Shadow Beast!"
The pitch-black mist turned into a dark cloud and suddenly flew into the sky, with wisps of gray air falling from the sky.
Skills, development!
This ability, originally intended to counter mental abilities like illusions, was perfectly suited for Guan Yun's search for the extra transparent weapon. Under the gray mist's visualization effect, a thin section of chain soon appeared before everyone's eyes.
It was a small piece of translucent chain that existed independently from the Prison-Suppressing Lock. It was only as long as a palm and looked like a thin little snake. It moved very fast and its breath was completely restrained, mainly targeting the enemy by surprise.
Xue Yao pouted at the ground and couldn't help cursing, "So you have some tricks up your sleeve. I was wondering why I was suddenly targeted just now?"
He was not familiar enough with the mysterious beast like the Prison Lock, and thought that the other party had the ability to add locking marks at will across space. Just now, his scalp was tingling, and he didn't know how to deal with this randomly appearing lock.
Now that he saw that this locking ability also had prerequisites, he suddenly felt more confident.
"I don't know if it activates by touching, or..."
Just as he was thinking about it, the Prison Suppressor saw that the conditions for activating his skills were exposed. After a moment of silence, he didn't get angry but laughed instead.
Its voice was hoarse, like a broken chimney that had been burned by fire for a long time. The ending tone was mixed with the harsh squeaking sound of rusty iron rubbing against each other, and it was like sharp claws scratching a blackboard - just hearing that sound, Xia Muqing's scalp instinctively tightened and she wanted to cover her ears.
“Huahua…”
[Oh, now that you know, what can you do? ]
[Can I hide away by showing myself? ]
As soon as he finished speaking, the translucent chain suspended in the air changed.
Among the chains behind the Prison Lock, a chain with a thick iron hammer hanging on it suddenly disappeared - the next second, the iron hammer suddenly appeared under the transparent chain suspended in the distance, and with the inertia of the bombardment, it drew a half arc in the air and smashed down hard on the head of Lord Feng Luo!
The change happened so suddenly that Guan Yun and the others were stunned.
The iron hammer seemed to teleport, using the transparent chain as a medium. It disappeared from the Prison-Suppressing Lock in a flash and appeared above Lord Feng Luo's head, without any reaction time.
Xia Muqing's pupils suddenly shrank: "What kind of skill is this - no, it's a characteristic?"
A dense array of characteristics flashed through her mind, but none of them fully corresponded to the situation before her.
A clone?
It doesn't seem right, could it be a mobile feature?
Lord Feng Luo narrowly avoided the attack. The iron hammer, carrying a fierce gust of wind, brushed past the right side of his head and smashed down heavily, but there was no roar of hitting the ground - at the moment of being about to land - he switched back to the Prison Lock.
The chains on the Prison Suppression Lock slowly turned, and the small eyes in the gaps stared at Lord Feng Luo closely, making a sharp and piercing sound: "Huh?"
"You can even dodge sudden attacks. It's not just your speed, you seem to have some foresight..."
With its rich combat experience, the Prison Suppressor discovered the clues of Lord Fengluo. It smiled: [I see, I understand. What if that's the case?]
The translucent chains suddenly disintegrated and turned into rings floating in the air.
Lord Fengluo looked around warily, but the sheer number of rings quickly enveloped him. The next moment, the chains behind the Prison Lock simultaneously disappeared!
At the same time, chains appeared on each ring, and terrifying weapons tied to the chains slashed towards Lord Feng Luo from all directions, blocking all his movement routes!
“Ouch!”
Lord Feng Luo roared loudly, and the time and space lock skill was activated again!
The chains were all frozen in mid-air.
A few drops of cold sweat trickled down Lord Feng Luo's forehead. Continuously unleashing this newly learned large-scale skill was a considerable challenge to his physical strength. After all, compared to the Prison Suppression Lock that had survived for who knows how many years, his profound energy reserves were still a long way behind his recent promotion.
Moreover, it not only has to take care of the Prison Lock, but also the Mountain-Eroding Ape that is eyeing it covetously on the other side.
Xia Muqing looked at the scattered lock rings in the air, and suddenly she understood: "I understand, it's the combination of the skill 'Disintegration' and the characteristic 'Shift'!"
Prison Suppressor brandished his chains disdainfully: [So what if I know? How many more times can this little dog use his blocking ability?]
Both it and the Erosion Mountain Ape saw that Lord Feng Luo was exhausted, and now they all showed a triumphant grin.
On the other side, Guan Yun and Xue Yao also looked bitter.
The enemy was stronger than they had imagined, and they had lost their only nurse, Yuehua Zitong. Their endurance could not match the opponent's mysterious power reserves, and they were already at a disadvantage.
Guan Yun frowned: "Xiao Yaozi, don't you have any healing beasts?"
Xue Yao scratched the back of his head and said guiltily, "I... I have a little dandelion. I just contracted it two months ago. It's still a baby now."
Guan Yun: “???”
Guan Yun: "What the hell, what were you doing this morning?"
Xue Yao said with a bitter face: "Stop scolding me, stop scolding me. How could I have thought of that! Weren't we just busy participating in the competition before, and all we raised were offensive and defensive beasts?"
"As for the little dandelion, it was only recently raised after we learned about the 'Alien Secret Realm', in order to enter and exit the alien space."
"Besides... I have the Chengtian Turtle!"
It is enough in most cases, but who knows if you will encounter extreme situations?
Guan Yun: "...Are you an idiot?"
Seeing this scene, the sneers of Eclipse Mountain Ape and Prison Suppressor became even more wanton. Eclipse Mountain Ape even laughed and pounded his chest with his fist: "Throat?"
[Humans, humans, they're already fighting amongst themselves. This is making me laugh to death!]
[How about you guys decide who lives and who dies first, and we'll let the last person live?]
This was certainly not the first time that the Mountain Erosion Ape and the Prison Suppressor had encountered humans. They had also encountered many adventurers before in the restricted area.
When they were in high spirits, they also mentioned similar games to those people. In the face of extreme pressure and fear of death, some people actually attacked their companions on the back in panic, allowing them to enjoy the ugly appearance of their selfish desires.
The three beastmasters in front of him were too young and very talented. They should be even more unwilling to die like this, right?
“…”
To the surprise of the Erosion Ape and the Prison Lock, after hearing their malicious laughter, Guan Yun and Xue Yao rolled their eyes and stopped arguing.
They took a deep breath, and the anxiety and uneasiness between their brows gradually faded away, leaving only determination in the depths of their eyes.
"Stupid ape," Guan Yun said, "Why do you think we stayed here?"
"With our abilities, is there no chance of escape before the time tunnel opens?"
Xue Yao also sighed with emotion: "Yes, our battle is not meaningless, right?"
"At least it took so long, and it caused such a big commotion, that others should have known to flee farther away and wait for rescue. The three of us could have saved at least dozens, maybe even hundreds of people. That's definitely not a loss."
The expressions of Eclipse Mountain Ape and Prison Suppressor Lock suddenly changed.
Meanwhile, Xia Muqing said leisurely, "Don't be so serious. We may not be defeated. It's been dragging on for so long, I guess the reinforcements...will be arriving soon, right?"
Everyone: “……!”
The word "reinforcements" was like a thunderclap, suddenly exploding in everyone's ears. Not only did the faces of Shishan Xing and Zhenyusuo grow darker and darker, but Guan Yun and Xue Yao also turned their heads in surprise: "Reinforcements?"
Where will the reinforcements come from?
"Could it be other candidates?" Xue Yao took a deep breath, revealing a toothache expression, "They must not come!"
The three beast masters are already in such a mess. If they get more "reinforcements" that are more than enough but not strong enough, they will become a burden instead.
Xue Yao prayed from the bottom of his heart that the others had some idea of the situation and would not try to be heroes at this time. It was already difficult for the three of them to deal with the two ferocious beasts, and they really had no energy left to protect others.
Xia Muqing smiled vaguely, raised her hand and pointed to the sky: "It's almost dawn."
Others haven't understood yet.
What does dawn have to do with reinforcements?
Suddenly, the distant sky was filled with brilliant clouds, and golden light surged like waves for thousands of miles.
It was like a strong light that split the night sky apart, piercing through the thick clouds and covering the winding mountains and earth with a layer of strong golden light!
…
30 minutes ago.
District 7, Colorful Stone Beach.
Reminded by the golden dragon's phantom, the little koi rushed to the pool and challenged the Nine Heavens Gate once again.
It has to race against time and against the world that is rapidly being blocked.
“Crash!”
Water splashes and arcs of light emerge.
A brilliant golden light appeared above the pond, and the little carp's nimble body was projected onto the water surface, transforming into agile streaks of light.
After practicing in recent days, it has become very familiar with the previous few dragon gates, and the bearing capacity of its body has also undergone earth-shaking changes. Now it moves swiftly and quickly passes through one level after another.
The light in the sky grew brighter, and a misty golden fog filled the air. Invisible pressure descended from nowhere, colliding and merging with the increasingly approaching space storm, gradually transforming into heavier air pressure.
Around the pool, the herds of water-based mysterious beasts that were reluctant to disperse also raised their heads and looked nervously towards the sky.
The weaker the profound beast, the more sensitive it is to external changes—this is the key to their survival in this alien dimension, evading predators. At this moment, sensing spatial turbulence, the chaos of profound energy, and invisible barriers rising from all directions, the profound beasts' hearts pounded in fear and panic.
The instinct of seeking profit and avoiding harm urged them to leave the colorful stone beach quickly and hide in a familiar place.
but……
In addition to the danger, the mysterious beasts also realized from the increasingly powerful golden light and the resolute attitude of the little koi that this might be the final attack.
If you succeed, you will turn into a dragon and soar into the sky.
If you fail, you lose the opportunity forever.
So... should I leave or not?
The mysterious beasts looked at the sky restlessly, their eyes full of confusion.
If you leave now, you won't be able to see the moment of transformation into a dragon.
It is often said in novels that "when one person achieves enlightenment, the whole family will benefit from it." In fact, there is a similar truth in the world of mysterious beasts. If you can witness the little koi successfully transform into a dragon and bathe in the rain of mysterious power, it will be of great benefit to their future growth.
A small number of water-type profound beasts left in hesitation, but many suppressed their anxiety and lingered by the pool, eager to witness the final outcome.
Even the seven-star king crab, which had mocked the little koi countless times, huddled behind a rock, its eyes flickering and sharp, staring at the tumbling figure in the air without blinking.
The seven-star king crab had mixed feelings, and it was hard to tell whether it hoped the little koi would succeed or fail. But then it thought, if the little koi succeeded, wouldn't it also benefit from the baptism of golden light?
If it fails, it can laugh at the opponent to its heart's content and gain nothing.
Thinking of this, the seven-star king crab grinned maliciously, and used its eight legs to scrape the surrounding gravel to better shield itself behind the rocks, leaving only a pair of small, black, bean-like eyes that were rolling around.
The little koi carp didn't care about the unusual movements of other water-based mystical beasts.
All its energy and strength were focused on the nine arches in the sky, and it had only one thought in its mind: charge, charge through with all its might, and break through the ninth arch!
“Crash!”
The golden figure drew a graceful arc in the air.
The sixth arch, success!
The seventh arch, success!
The eighth arch, success!
Seeing the little koi fish land in front of the ninth archway, the mysterious beasts below opened their eyes wide nervously.
Ark Xiaoxue's electronic eyes kept flashing, and the Yin-Yang Butterfly was so excited that it held its breath. Even the golden dragon phantom that was watching silently at the side did not dare to blink at this moment. Its five claws were slightly tensed, and the tips of its claws subconsciously hooked onto the long beard.
Is it possible?
Can you rush through?
The mysterious beasts were filled with mixed thoughts, and at this moment, the little koi fish far in the sky was only a shadow the size of a soybean.
They stared intently, and saw that the golden light passed through the eighth door and rushed straight to the ninth archway without any breath!
The swallow's tail swung up, slapping the invisible barrier. The scattered rays of the morning sun were absorbed and transformed, forming a large expanse of brilliant golden foam. Under the influence of the profound technique, it transformed into a raging wave, surrounding the golden light on the crest of the wave and charging forward with all its might.
"……boom!"
At that moment, it was as if a heavy punch hit their chests, and the mysterious beasts present all saw black.
Simultaneously with the muffled sound, the spatial blockade quietly closed. The swirling storm fully formed at this moment, transforming into a boundless mist that enveloped the entire Seventh District.
The moment the change occurred, the golden dragon's eyes suddenly focused: "...Oh no!"
The space blockade is completed and the power of heaven and earth is cut off!
The golden light high in the sky was about to cross the ninth archway when it suddenly lost its source of power, and the brilliant golden waves silently dissipated. A slight error can lead to a huge difference. The golden light, carrying an unstoppable momentum, crashed fiercely into the top of the ninth archway.
Only a few centimeters away from climbing over the arch!
The water-based mysterious beasts were still staring eagerly and screaming in panic, not knowing whether the "dragon transformation" was successful or not, but the golden dragon phantom had seen through everything.
It closed its eyes in annoyance, and the regrets that emerged in its heart were like a tide, almost suffocating.
In the air, a streak of golden light lost its support point and fell weakly from the sky.
...With a "splash", it hit the pool of water hard.
"Aaaaaaaa!"
The Liangyi Butterfly rushed out in a flash, shouting panically towards the pool. Its life energy was circulated to the extreme, and it was injected into the figure slowly floating up in the pool as if it were free.
After more than ten seconds, the koi fish with its white belly turned up in the pond took a deep breath and slowly woke up from its coma.
Although it was awake, it had a pair of desperate dead fish eyes, its face was pale, its scales had almost completely lost their luster, and it drifted weakly with the water.
Failed.
Success is at hand but failure is imminent.
The spatial blockade was too fast, too harsh, and just at the last second, it cut off the power of heaven and earth it was borrowing. Just a little bit, just a little bit, and it would...
The little koi floated in the water dejectedly, with a blank mind.
It heard the worried calls of the Yin-Yang Butterfly, the noise of other water-type mystical beasts, Senior Golden Dragon shaking his head and sighing helplessly... and the rude laughter of the Seven-Star King Crab.
[As expected by this great king, it is impossible to succeed!]
[A koi fish actually wants to turn into a dragon. This is simply the most ridiculous joke I have heard this century!]
[Retreat, retreat, this is so boring! Hey, you water-type brats over there, why don't you just turn around and run? You're risking your lives getting caught in a space storm just to see this useless carp's unrealistic fantasies?]
The noise around was getting smaller and smaller. After seeing the little koi failed to transform into a dragon, a large number of mysterious beasts were extremely disappointed and quickly turned around and left.
Tiny space debris is falling from the sky, and every black dot is murderous. With their strength, they are not enough to stay near the center of the storm.
There were fewer and fewer mysterious beasts near the pond, and the seven-star king crab even turned sideways with a humming sound, and ran away with a domineering pace.
The originally densely packed group of mysterious beasts soon became sparse, with only a dozen or so remaining.
Jinlong looked at the little koi floating in the pond with a complicated expression, not knowing what to say for a moment.
As a fellow water-type profound beast, it knew the other's desire to transform into a dragon, for it had felt the same way in its own lifetime. The little koi was luckier than it, having obtained the dragon elixir left behind by its remains. The "Dragon Gate Leap" just now was the most beautiful and hopeful one the golden dragon had ever witnessed.
But the little koi was even more unfortunate than it. At least its failure was due to insufficient strength, so it could not blame anyone else. However, the little koi's failure was purely due to bad luck - it only needed the power of heaven and earth to last a little longer, no, even half a second!
Jin Long opened his mouth, but all the words of comfort that came to his lips turned into a long sigh: "...Alas."
What's the use of comfort?
The heavens and the earth have been sealed off. The trial will soon end, and it will dissipate within a day. By then, there will be no more regrets to initiate the next round of the Dragon Transformation Trial, and no mysterious beast will be able to become a true "dragon."
After hesitating for a long time, Jin Long said softly, "Don't be sad."
"Perhaps this is the will of heaven and earth, which does not allow a mysterious beast of the level of a divine dragon to appear in this world."
That’s right, Jin Long thought about it and this was the only explanation.
It was just a shadow, but it had already realized how powerful the dragon was and how much it was envied by heaven and earth.
Otherwise, how could the little guy named "Koi" be so unlucky as to miss this crucial half second?
"Forget it," Jin Long shook his head resignedly. "If that's the reason, neither you nor I deserved to lose. Shenlong, huh, it's just a beautiful bubble..."
Jin Long sighed with a heavy heart, but he didn't expect that after a few breaths, the little koi in the pond turned over and floated up, wiping its face vigorously.
"Gurgle!"
[Senior Jinlong, I want to try again!]
Its face was pale, but its eyes were bright as sparks - the determined look in its eyes met the Golden Dragon's eyes, as if something was burning fiercely, causing the Golden Dragon's heart to tremble violently.
"You..." Jin Long choked for a moment, "Are you crazy?"
"Don't be impulsive, kid. Calm down. You're better off than me. Your injuries aren't fatal. Even if you can't become a dragon, you can still evolve normally in the future!"
"With your unevolved strength and physical fitness, you are one of the best among the mysterious beasts I have ever seen in my life. After evolving, you will definitely become a powerful beast king—"
Little Koi: "Gurgle!"
Thank you, senior, but I am calm now.
"Didn't you say that the evolution of the Shenlong was envied by Heaven and Earth? So, I wonder if I shouldn't have borrowed the power of Heaven and Earth in the first place?"
Its expression was serious: [I wanted to use external forces to complete the trial, but in the end, I was also affected by them. Perhaps there is indeed a mysterious connection.]
[Since this is the case, if I want to break this invisible obstacle, I shouldn't rely on the power of heaven and earth, but should rely solely on my own efforts to complete the trial!]
The little koi became more and more confident as it spoke. Strings of bubbles came out of its mouth, like dancing birds, soaring high into the sky with the wind.
The golden dragon looked at it in astonishment.
In terms of size, the golden dragon's shadow was many times taller than the little koi, but at this moment, facing the little koi's determined gaze, the golden dragon suddenly felt that he, who had just hesitated, became very small in front of the koi fish covered with bruises.
"...But without borrowing the power of heaven and earth, can you really climb over the nine arches with your own strength alone?"
"Aiya!"
A childish cry came from the side. The golden dragon suddenly turned around and found that the Yin-Yang butterfly had also flown to the little koi.
【It’s not its power, it’s our power! 】
"The power of our companions is different from the power of heaven and earth. We are one, so it's okay to borrow it, right?"
The Yin-Yang butterfly fluttered its wings, its expression mirroring the determination of the little koi: "Senior Jinlong, I'd like to ask, while Brother Jin is undergoing his trials, can I cling to his back and provide him with life energy?"
Jin Long: “……?”
Jinlong was confused.
Boy, do you really dare to think like that?
"No, little guy, your physical fitness is not that strong. The overflowing impact force will knock you down, and the heavy pressure will crush you!"
The golden dragon shook its head repeatedly, trying to dispel the unrealistic ideas of the little mysterious beasts in front of it, but just as it finished speaking, a crisp electronic sound rang in its ears again.
"It's not completely impossible."
Ark Xiaoxue's electronic eyes kept flashing, and the energy ball hanging on her body was full of emotional energy - it was a ball of dazzling golden energy that she had just absorbed from the determined little koi, like a ball of burning fire.
This unprecedented surge of energy was fueling the frantic operation of its central nervous system. Ark Xiaoxue pondered with difficulty, spouting out words almost word by word: "Earlier, when scanning for information on other profound beasts, I discovered a skill called 'Sacrifice.'"
Ark Xiaoxue had never had such a huge amount of thinking.
Although it had gained consciousness, it had always obeyed Xia Muqing's arrangements, arranging it to collect information about the Qingzhou Group and screen high-scoring tasks... But this time, without any request or order from anyone, it spontaneously wanted to do something for its companions.
This unprecedented impulse turned into an intense electric current, surging in Ark Xiaoxue's chest.
"Xiao Zi, can you learn this skill in the shortest possible time and then attach the power to the little koi?"
…
20 minutes later.
The Yin-Yang Butterfly quickly mastered the sacrifice skill.
Its natural talent is good, and it often uses its life energy to heal its companions' injuries. This energy transfer is very similar to the "Sacrifice" skill, so it is much easier to learn.
Under the nervous gaze of the golden dragon's phantom, the Yin-Yang butterfly flapped its wings, and the patterns on its wings silently rotated and transformed -
"Aiya!"
Skill, sacrifice!
A rich purple light lit up, enveloping the little koi with a vigorous and rich vitality.
Jin Long watched all this and hesitated, "Do you really want to try again?"
"Your companions have sacrificed all of their profound energy and will no longer have the strength to help you heal. In other words, if you fail this time, you will truly... die."
The situation was extremely dangerous, far exceeding any previous challenge. After using "sacrifice", the Yin-Yang Butterfly could no longer protect the little koi.
But after hearing what Jinlong said, the little koi's expression did not waver at all.
It did not answer, but proved it with action - its nimble body leaped up and rushed into the sky, and its body was once again covered with golden dragon scales!
Purple energy flowed through its body, blending into its flesh, blood, tendons, and bones. After a few breaths, this force found its proper path, gradually converging on the little koi's back, slightly bulging the skin there like two small bumps.
“Crash—”
The bulge broke open, and a pair of pale purple butterfly wings slowly spread out on the back of the little koi!
The butterfly's wings, thin as paper, shimmered with a dreamlike shimmer, scattering tiny, star-like dust as it gently fluttered through the air. Golden light transformed into a curtain, purple light like a dream. The little koi, enveloped in two streams of light, seemed to have stepped out of a fantasy, holy and noble.
This strange sight attracted the attention of the remaining mysterious beasts. Even the mysterious beasts that had left earlier turned around in surprise and doubt and looked up at the sky on their way to escape.
"Gugu?"
"Huahua?"
[What's going on? Another beast is challenging us? Didn't they say that the power of heaven and earth has been isolated?]
The seven-star king crab was passing by a shallow beach. It turned around and looked up at the sky with disdain with its small, bean-sized eyes.
"Suosuo?"
[This aura... or that little carp? ]
[Hiss, you're crazy! How is this different from suicide?]
Recognizing the scent of the koi fish, the seven-star king crab rolled its eyes and continued walking forward without looking back.
That stupid carp must have been unable to handle the frustration of failing to transform into a dragon, and must have gone mad by now. Oh, how pitiful, but even if it went mad, it would never succeed in evolving!
The seven-star king crab smirked inwardly.
Deciding that the little koi's struggle was futile, it was too lazy to return the same way.
It’s better to avoid the space storm.
The seven-star king crab mentally sentenced the little koi to death for its recklessness, but actually at this moment on the colorful stone beach, the little koi with wings on its back was like a tiger with wings, and it quickly flipped over several arches - the challenge speed was even faster than before.
The power of the Yin-Yang Butterfly turned into a warm current flowing through its body, like soft hot spring water gently flowing through the damaged meridians. The power of its companions merged into its bones and muscles. The little koi only felt that with every leap, its tail swung more vigorously, and even its muscles seemed to contain endless power.
This is the life energy of the Yin-Yang Butterfly, and it is also a unique power called "partner"!
The little koi's eyes were bright as it stared intently at the archway above. With the support of its companions, it felt confident.
"Gurgle!"
Come on, climb over this dragon gate!
The third...sixth...eighth door, successfully climbed over!
The small figure, mixed with gold and purple, once again came to the majestic ninth dragon gate.
The water-type mysterious beasts who had risked their lives to stay were also completely excited at this moment, and they all shouted loudly below.
【Come on, come on! 】
【Go! 】
[Little Koi, charge forward with all your might! You can do it!]
[Ah ...
Countless bubbles flew up, floated into the air, and then turned into starlight, resisting the invisible pressure between heaven and earth.
The mysterious beasts, upon hearing the golden dragon's words, knew this was a final, life-or-death challenge. They had witnessed the little koi's efforts over the past few days and were already deeply impressed by it. Now, they were united in their desire to see the little koi successfully transform into a dragon!
The golden dragon shadow watched the trial quietly, his eyes following the figure of the little koi. Suddenly, a scene flashed through his mind, in which a small water-type mysterious beast practiced leaping over the dragon gate alone on the colorful stone beach many years ago.
The dream recognized by all beasts gradually approached success through thousands of leaps - when it rushed into the sky without hesitation, were its eyes also like the little koi in front of it, shining with light brighter than flames, enough to illuminate the entire sky?
It listened to the cries of the mysterious beasts beside it, looked at the purple butterfly wings on the back of the little koi, and many complex expressions flashed in its eyes, but in the end all these thoughts and reluctance turned into a relieved smile.
The golden dragon phantom blew out a breath, and its long beard flew in the air, and the rumbling sound echoed over the colorful stone beach.
"In that case, let me lend you a hand!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden dragon's form suddenly and rapidly dissipated. Its massive body melted like foam, its long beard drifting away like ash. All of this transformed into pure profound energy, which, along with dancing bubbles, flew towards the little koi.
High in the sky, the little koi fish sensed something and turned around in surprise.
The golden dragon's head, still in place, hung in mid-air, a kind smile on its lips. It nodded encouragingly at the little koi, "This is the last of my energy. Don't worry, I've already removed the part from heaven and earth."
"I can only exist for three days anyway. One day earlier or later makes no difference to me."
"But child, I want to see you succeed. Don't cry, don't be sad. I also want to see the real Gilded Sky Dragon in my final moments!"
"——Go, kid, go and help me realize my dream!"
The golden dragon's head disappeared between heaven and earth, leaving only a sound like muffled thunder echoing over the pool.
A few drops of water slid down from the sky. At the same time, the koi fish that received the gift used all its strength to jump up!
With the spirit of not fearing even being torn to pieces, Liu Guang rushed towards the ninth door!
At that moment, the gazes of countless mysterious beasts converged, and their voices merged into a unified cry—
Little koi turns into a dragon!!!
