The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming-Chapter 532 - 526: Making Friends through Battle

Chapter 532: Chapter 526: Making Friends through Battle

“Don’t die?”

Upon hearing this sentence, Clive Brown couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.

This was a phrase so unfamiliar, they hadn’t heard in what felt like ages!

“Interesting, if you can do it, try it!”

Far from anger, Clive Brown was delighted, and his aura became stronger and stronger. The substantial Ghost power around him grew, radiating an intense heat that seemed to shake the atmosphere itself.

“The battle will end in an instant!”

As David Jones’s voice fell, the Rainbow on his wrist turned into a streak of cold light that merged into his body, releasing the Holy Entanglement of the Emperor’s Frost Armor.

In an instant, the sound of frost formation was heard all around. A layer of pristine white frost armor suddenly covered David Jones’s body, then streaks of purple-black Frost power traced mysterious patterns on the surface of the Emperor’s Frost Armor.

Feeling the unprecedented power within, David Jones clenched his fists.

He was a Trainer, not a practitioner of Body Cultivation.

In the later stage of the second layer of Tigrex Dossier, he could face off against Sixth-Order King-Class Exotic Beasts using the Emperor’s Frost Armor.

Now that his cultivation in the Tigrex Dossier had advanced further, coupled with the brute force granted by the Ghost Deity’s physique, he had the confidence to duel and even win against a Sixth Stage Middle Rank Beast.

“Ghost Change!”

On the other side, the violent flames constricted onto Clive’s fist, and with a thunderous roar that echoed across the sky, the fist infused with fire enough to melt metal and shatter stone, struck David’s Emperor’s Frost Armor.

“Hiss!”

The collision between extreme cold and extreme heat caused massive amounts of steam to rise, obscuring the two of them.

Unexpectedly for Clive, David withstood this blow head-on, not only was he not blown away, he didn’t even take a single step back.

“Got you!” David Jones’s face broke into a smile.

The icy chill in an instant froze the fist Clive used to attack the Emperor’s Frost Armor, and began to rapidly spread across his body.

The Emperor’s Frost Armor not only provided impeccable defense, but its World Freezing Frost power could also leave its victim unforgettable, icy memory.

Clive adjusted his stance, trying to draw back his fist, intending to use the surging flames to dispel the freezing air.

But David Jones merely turned his right fist, and the sound of glass shattering echoed one after another as the terrifying chill instantly turned the surrounding landscape into frost.

“Spatial Frostquake*Earthquake!”

The next second, the earth began to shake. The frozen mountains roared and rumbled. Amidst this earth and heaven-shaking fury, this mountain only hundreds of feet high started screaming, as if it had been leveled instantly.

The epicenter of this explosive collision of spatial forces and Frost qi was directed at Clive Brown, the receiver of this attack. His armor shattered completely, even the helmet was blown away by the omnipresent spatial vibrations.

Not only that, a great deal of blood spewed from his mouth, and his body fell like a meteorite onto the shattered ground, with more than half of his body buried in the rubble strewn landscape.

“General!”

The soldiers stared at their suddenly defeated, disheveled general, their eyes filled with disbelief.

If they hadn’t been through the grueling military training and knew about Clive Brown’s emphasis on orders, they would’ve rushed forward to support their general and trap the opponent.

But they glanced not far from the calm, composed Flame Dragon and ultimately chose to wait quietly.

“Have I lost?”

Looking at the gravel stained with his own blood in front of him, Clive Brown seemed to shake something off, and his face became relaxed.

Then, he felt a shadow appear over his head, and as he looked up, his blood-stained lips parted slightly.

“What, have you won and yet you’re not leaving? Are you interested in killing me?” Clive Brown said with a grin.

Based on their previous fight, he no longer believed that David Jones had any relation to the demonic beast massacre in the village.

After all, the noble bloodline emanating from David Jones, coupled with his unparalleled talent and clear eyes, ruled out the possibility of him being influenced by one of the Seven Deadly Sins in the depths of his bloodline. It was highly unlikely that he would sink to the level of resorting to demonic beasts, and do something that would cut off his own path forward.

Only some weak and pathetic ghosts would seek to increase their strength by siding with demonic beasts, join the Blood Temple, and become the puppets of the Blood God.

Of course, even if David Jones harbored murderous intent, Clive was certain that he could escape. This was also the reason why up till now, Clive remained so calm.

“My destination happens to be Silver-Abyssal City. I don’t mind accompanying you to clear your name.”

Calming down the indignant Rainbow, David Jones extended his right hand, showing a friendly attitude.

This battle was optional, but to test and demonstrate his strength, David Jones decided to fight it out.

After all, in the Umbral, making friends through battle is the mainstream social tradition.

The stronger ones who are at the level of Ghost Kings would fight anyone they encountered to determine social hierarchy. It was through reading old texts that David Jones learnt that the entire Ghost race were brutes who spoke with their fists.

“I understand.”

Clamping onto David Jones’ palm, Clive leveraged it to rise to his feet, effortlessly freeing his lower body from the entrapment of the earth.

“Clive Brown, but you can call me Clive.” He slapped the dirt off his body and briefly introduced himself. novelbuddy.cσ๓

Then, he waved to the soldiers of Team Kamui who had been watching the fight from the back.

“Regroup. We must return to Silver-Abyssal City tonight.”

After finishing his sentence, he took a look at David Jones’ injuries and offered an external alchemical pill filled with aurum aura.

“Need an elixir?”

Upon seeing this, David Jones activated his Illusion-Piercing Eye.

“Stone-Healing Elixir (inferior quality): An external alchemical pill made from the essence of stone, lots of cinnabar, and mercury. Consuming it can quickly restore injuries on the body.”

Note: Over consuming the Stone-Healing Elixir can lead to signs of poisoning and impact the roots. (Effects are lesser for the Ghosts).

“Damn, using toxic mineral stone as the ingredient for alchemy. Aren’t they afraid of poisoning someone to death?” David Jones’s pupils contracted. This was the first time he had ever seen an external alchemy pill made by an Umbral Ghost Healer.

In Flowery Kingdom, Pharmacists would only dare to add a small amount of mineral stone into their alchemy process to avoid the issue of too many impurities and potential poisoning. He didn’t expect the Umbral to go against the grain this way.

“Well, the constitutions of humans and ghosts are different. What’s seen as deadly poison in a human’s eyes, is seen as having a bit more impurity in the eyes of the ghosts, who worship physical strength.”

Seeing David Jones silent in front of the Stone-Healing Elixir, Clive took the elixir from his hand and put it in his mouth, showing there were no problems with his medicine.

“Thank you, but I have my own specially formulated elixir.” David Jones politely declined.

Even though his body could handle the toxicity of a gold-stone pill, he did not dare to consume an elixir with such strong side effects.

At this time, seeing the exquisite elixir taken out by David Jones, Clive’s eyes slightly stiffened.

No wonder he looked down on the Stone-Healing Elixir. He had a higher quality elixir in his possession. Such an elixir that even he, as the Captain of Team Kamui, was a bit envious!
