Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The dark golden snake slowly drifted out and converged into a tiny body in the crystal.

Although it was still a Dark Shadow Dragon in its infancy, it already had some fine black scales and a series of slender, long dragon whiskers on its back. The long, black dragon whiskers were like its hair and they slowly undulated in the crystal.

The young Dark Shadow Dragon at this moment had a faint reflection of a dragon and was no longer the form of an ordinary snake.

“Come to me...” Garen exuded a slight aura of goodwill and chill. The Cold Energy he absorbed earlier was once again released by him, covering the surface of his body.

The young dragon was truly attracted and slithered over hurriedly. The slender body wound one round like a snake and its head leaned against Garen in an affectionate manner. It stuck out its tongue and licked the back of Garen’s hand.

Hiss hiss.

It began to carefully devour the Cold Energy as if eating the best grade of food.

Garen watched it tenderly, constantly emitting his accumulated Cold Energy, letting it devour continuously.

Apart from being able to slither in the shadows, the young Dark Shadow Dragon’s lethality was in effect not even up to that of a poisonous snake. The only harm it could bring about was the self-detonation of the demarcation point of the two worlds in its body. That was the core which was connected to the Dark World.

Now, its most dangerous means of protection had become a real deadly threat.

The invisible Cold Energy continued to spread into the young Dark Shadow Dragon’s body.

A faint red light gradually appeared in Garen’s eyes and the blood-red glow in them shone onto the young dragon. An extremely sharp chill was released slowly and invaded the young dragon’s body.

The red light transformed into a big hand and gently stroked the young dragon. The touch was extremely soothing and soft, without any malicious intentions.

The young dragon also let out a comfortable moan, almost closing its eyes in comfort.

Suddenly, Garen increased his strength. The strength formed by his Willpower Field instantly seized the young dragon so that it could not escape from his control.

Hiss!!

The young Dark Shadow Dragon was pinched by the huge force field strength, and it struggled in desperation, shrieking frantically.

However, its weak strength simply could not resist Garen who still had the power of a Non-Falling Level. Even the little power Garen had accumulated during this period of time was enough to kill the little things that were not hidden in the shadows.

The young dragon whined and struggled. Both its eyes were swelling and bulging. Its slender black body was pinched by the energy field in the air, which was getting increasingly tighter and stronger. Numerous black smokes discharged from its body and spread out into the surrounding.

What Garen radiated from his eyes was not only a glaring red light but also a cold killing intention.

He watched quietly as the young dragon struggled and pleaded for its life.

Boom!

The young dragon finally could no longer withstand it and exploded right away, turning into a cloud of black smoke and floated before Garen in the crystal.

With a tear, a pale eye suddenly opened from within the black smoke, and the eyeball twitched nervously up, down, left and right.

Garen looked at the eyeball calmly, his mouth slightly curved up.

“Come on... All of Dark Shadow. I need your help...” He murmured.

The white eyeball arched forward slowly. It was impressively grown on top of the head of a pitch-black bird type of creature. The second this black bird with a white eyeball on its head flew out of the black smoke, the first thing it saw was the red light radiating from Garen’s eyes.

Caw!!

The Dark Shadow Blackbird immediately made an ear-piercing cry of horror. It seemed to be fearful, and it also seemed to be roaring. It darted at Garen’s eyes without any regard of its own safety, as if it would do its utmost to destroy everything relating to this red light.

But just as it was separated from the black fog, it was immediately restricted by the power of the crystal. This crystal was the strongest protective shell the Dark Shadow Dragon’s larva used to protect itself during its infancy. At the same time, it was also once the crystal core of some matured Dark Shadow Dragon. The speed and ability to absorb the dark energy were not something that could be resisted by a small Dark Shadow Bird.

Almost immediately when it thrust forward, the blackbird exploded directly, turning into a vast black fog and was absorbed by the crystal.

Boom bang!!

Almost at the same time the blackbird exploded, the black fog violently surged into a large stream of black torrent and rushed toward Garen. It seemed to want to destroy the only source of the red light in the crystal – Garen’s eyes.

Garen’s mouth gaped open, allowing the massive black torrent to freely dash into his mouth. The ferocious inertial impact of the massive torrent made him trembled slightly.

Around the torrent were countless more dissipated parts which were rapidly absorbed by the crystal.

“Come on, come on...give me more...hahaha...!!” Garen felt the long-absent energy in his body increasing more and more. The dark energy was unceasingly being converted into Cold Energy by the Hellfrost Peacock’s devouring essence and madly filling his body which had been dried up for too long. A never-experienced-before kind of joy and satisfaction incessantly overflowed within his heart.

His eyes widened, and numerous Cold Energy was slowly emanated.

But what he absorbed was only a small part while a majority of it was absorbed by the crystal. As time progressed, the black torrent grew thicker and more ferocious. Occasionally, one could see some insect organism kind of strange dark shadow stuff mixed in it.

These black impurities rushed into Garen, and a large number of various toxins also rushed into Garen’s mouth following the impact.

He did not refuse them but madly swallowed them. The power in his body quickly grew like a dry sponge quickly absorbing all the water around it. These dark energies were second only to the purity of the energy tide he had absorbed. Although ferocious, they were of no harm to him, whose body had been transformed into the Hellfrost Peacock.

Numerous dark energies were constantly being converted into Cold Energy and absorbed by him. The long-awaited final stage of Hellfrost Peacock Technique had started to progress again.

Garen stared at the attribute changes within his field of sight.

‘Secret Technique – ‘Hellfrost Peacock Queen is growing: The three Army-Level Soul Seed’s Dimensional Dream Ability has triggered the Hellfrost Peacock’s ultimate form – Hellfrost Peacock Queen’s evolution, but the evolution requires an unimaginable energy growth...progress is now 7%.’

Ability gained – Peacock Transformation.

Ability gained – Devoured Energy Field 5.

Ability gained – Distortive Seed 5.

Ability gained – Cold Chaos 5.’

The inexhaustible energy of the Dark World emboldened Garen to devour completely. He allowed the black torrent to gush wildly into his mouth, swallowing big mouthfuls of it. It was almost directly infused into his stomach, was quickly devoured and converted into cold energy, nourishing the growth of the Hellfrost Peacock Queen’s evolution.

The crystal became more and more solid and countless Dark Shadow energy rushed into it. It was continually strengthening its own solidity in an extremely rapid manner. This kind of strengthening was escalating non-stop, and the Confinement Power was increasingly becoming greater.

The constant surge of a black torrent, the increasingly solid dark golden crystal, and the blurred human form glimmering red light in both of his eyes in the crystal; all these were hidden in the depths of the ground underneath White King’s palace. No one realized it.

Time passed slowly...unwittingly, the black fog fluctuated increasingly greater, and it seemed that as time went on, its surging speed would increase continually.

Garen had gradually forgotten the passage of time...he was only madly devouring again and again. The surrounding crystal was also wildly absorbing the dark energy, and the Confinement Power was becoming more and more powerful.

The great impact of the dark energy went against the Confinement Power, but it was also being absorbed by the Confining Crystal incessantly, turning into the purest essence power and transforming the disposition of the crystal itself.

This was a kind of contradictory combination. The crystal absorbed the dark energy to strengthen the Confinement Power, and the Confinement Power gradually started to naturally block the influx of the dark energy, causing the impact of the dark energy against him to be increasingly lesser and lesser.

When the Confinement Power of the crystal was strong to a certain extent, it would be the time when the dark energy could not rush into the crystal. That would also be the time when Garen could no longer devour the dark energy.

He did not know how long this demarcation point could hold out. But now, he was watching the progress of the evolution of the Hellfrost Peacock Queen’s ultimate form gradually rising in his Attribute Pane...

7%, 8%, 9%...

Little by little, the distortive power did not affect time anymore. Garen sensed that his flow of time at this moment was normal. And so, he completely settled down and recklessly competed with the crystal to devour the dark energy. Even the dark matter contained in it was directly converted into Cold Energy by him.

Unconsciously, he was gradually left with only one thought... devour...

Without knowing how long it had been, Garen’s consciousness gradually blurred. Even the strongest consciousness would have a time of drowsiness. Unwittingly, he fell asleep...

******************

Endless white space.

Garen stood alone in a white space, surrounded by nothing. It was all white.

He looked up. It was completely white above and the edge could not be seen.

He then looked beneath his feet. There was only white, and it looked very pure. There was nothing around and nothing was to be seen. Apart from white, it was still white.

“This place is...?” Garen frowned slightly. He clearly remembered that he was still madly devouring innumerable dark energy the previous moment, but he had now suddenly appeared here.

He lowered his head and saw that he had a red rose in his hand. When he looked up again, he saw a huge, red rose the height of a person which had appeared in front of him unknowingly.

It was the kind of single rose that was plucked out. Bright and tender, the side of the flower also had a prominent, thick lip. There seemed to be a fuzzy face as well.

“Hey buddy,” the mouth on the rose spoke up. “Do you know one plus one equals two?”

Garen was stunned.

“Didn’t you just say that one plus one equals two?” He did not know why he answered this question but just said out the answer naturally. He did not even think that there was anything wrong in speaking to a rose.

“Hey buddy,” the rose spoke again. “Do you know why one plus one equals two?”

Garen thought for a moment and answered seriously.

“This is a very complicated question.”

After finishing his words, he ignored the rose and turned about, walking aimlessly towards another direction.vd
