  Chapter 727 This time I really became a dragon (5700)

   What happened at the door of the church is something that can happen anywhere.

   It's not a rare scene where a human child learns to blow off, and is more powerful than anyone he knows!

  For remote places like Port Harrison, ordinary children may not even be able to spell the Grant family's surname correctly, so naturally they can't be expected to name sublimators other than viscounts and bishops.

   And in the end, the result is who won...

  The answer is self-evident.

   "Up to now, my brother is undoubtedly the strongest in Nanling!"

   All the children around who ate melons, fish, beans, and cold jellyfish were intimidated by Elan, who ate sausage, with his natural momentum and words, and he couldn't refute for a while.

  Combined with the good reputation that Ian has brought over the years as "other people's children", it is impressive that everyone has a feeling of "he is right".

  —Grass, the emperor is a master alchemist fighting his disciples, but you are fighting your brother in Harrison Port?

   And when you blow me up, Elan really stopped stuttering, and the sentences are clear and fluent!

  Ian felt quite strange in his heart.

  He didn't know that Elan was actually his die-hard fan... But it's not surprising when he thinks about it carefully. It's normal for his own brother to like himself!

  If Elan doesn't brag about himself, then he has to reflect on why his stalwart image has not been reflected in the other party's heart!

   Not to mention, what Elan said was the truth.

   "Ah, brother!"

  Elan, who was bragging for Ian with his friends, saw Ian walk out of the church gate, his eyes lit up, and then he ran over.

  Ian didn't care about the oily hand of the other party who had just eaten grilled fish on skewers patting his waist. Anyway, he is a sublimator of the water attribute, and he just wanted to remove the oil.

"good."

  Ian touched his younger brother's head, and said with a pleasant face, "Don't be so arrogant when discussing with your friends next time. Even if we are the strongest in the future, we should keep a low profile now, understand?"

"Uh-huh!"

  Elan nodded earnestly and agreed, but was a little puzzled: "But I'm not arrogant. I'm just telling the truth!"

   "You don't understand this." Ian sighed and shook his head: "For genius brothers like us, stating the facts is the greatest arrogance."

"In order for them not to have too much psychological pressure, next time Elan you lie. Put me in the second and third places. When I go to a bigger place, I will be more humble and say that we can stabilize the top eight. .”

   "Yeah." Elan agreed without thinking: "Okay, next time I will say that my brother is the second strongest."

   "In the church, Grandpa Baiwu is the number one; in other places, the Viscount is the number one!"

"Yes, Not Bad!"

  Ian was very pleased that Elan revealed this at all, but he rubbed the other's soft white cheeks vigorously: "You are very smart, Elan, then I will test you, what if two people are present at the same time?"

   "Then brother is the third!"

   "Okay, okay! My Elan is the smartest!" Ian was very satisfied.

  —As it should be! The children of their Yinfeng family should have this kind of ability to speak to people when they are in need!

   "Don't teach bad children!"

   On the other side, the voice of Elder Pude sounded. The old man who had just bought back three coconuts looked helplessly at Ian teaching children to lie here: "Have you finished chatting with Baiwu?"

"yes."

Putting down the hand rubbing Elan's face, Ian took the coconut with two holes and inserted the reed tube from Elder Pude: "Over there in the redwood forest, there are also people from the meditation group. Our speed of action Hurry up."

   "Oh?" Elder Pude couldn't help feeling a little nervous when he heard that, his brows were frowned: "Are they also interested in foreseeing Futaba?"

"No." Ian said, he took a step at the moment, and took Elder Pudd and Elan to the seaside outside the city: "They are obviously interested in me-foreseeing Futaba is just an excuse, and the Soul Tracing Sect should have foreseen that there will be Something about me was discovered to be blocked by the influence of the prophet."

   "So they sent someone to Port Harrison to inquire about the situation of the Huaiguang Church, and the Huaiguang Church could not confirm that I have prophetic abilities, so they could only tell them about the foresight of Futaba."

   “This just happens to be relevant to us again.”

   "Four Orthodox Churches..."

  The old man took a sip of coconut juice, and said in a deep voice, "You said last time that you want to gradually demonstrate your prophetic ability... It seems that this is the opportunity."

   "With the endorsement of any one of the four Orthodox Churches, your ability will not be doubted, nor will you be in danger."

  Ian nodded: "Yes. That's why I came here specially to ask Bishop Baiwu about his tone."

  His communication with Bishop Baiwu was very brief, but he could hear the hidden meaning of the other party.

Yes. The meditation group found signs of the existence of prophets in Nanling...but for no reason, why did the other party suddenly discover that there were prophets in Nanling?

  It must be because of what happened in Nanling, let them try to prophesy, but there is no result.

   To be honest, I am not arrogant. Ian feels that, judging from the current situation in Nanling, the people and things that are eligible to be predicted are basically related to him.

  And the scope of the field that the Resurrection Church will try to predict... It just so happens that Ian is also involved.

   (Temporary Hades?)

Walking on the road to the coast outside the city, Ian mused in his heart: (Obviously, the Netherworld Sect has a prophecy method similar to that of the Huaiguang Church to detect natural disasters. They should have predicted the temporary underworld I am preparing, or other similar technology, but because I am a prophet, I don't know where exactly)

(And they obtained the existence of Futaba from various channels, thinking that it caused a misjudgment, so they sent an investigation team to investigate... And it just so happens that Elder Pude is also preparing to improve my prophetic ability, he Also investigating this aspect)

   (In this way, the Huaiguang Church, which already knew a lot of news, can confirm that I am indeed a prophet this time—what a coincidence)

  However, if the Netherworld Cult really has the means to detect a technology like the Temporary Underworld, then they are absolutely aware of Grand Duke Thorin's plan for the dead king.

  And the Netherworld Cult did not prevent the birth of the Dead King...cannot stop it, or are they also the promoters behind the Dead King's technology?

   are possible.

  Ian shook his head, he didn't want to think about it for the time being. In the future, the meditation group will definitely come to the door. Whether it will be cooperation or other things will be discussed later.

  No matter what moves the opponent makes, he just needs to wait in Xiahui's collar.

   As for now...

   "Go to Shasha first."

  Ian took Elder Purdue and Elan directly to the beach this time, just to find Sha Sha and Hua An, and we went to the South China Sea Labyrinth together.

   On the way, Ian checked Elan's body in detail.

  Now, Elan can already be regarded as a half-psychic user. With the help of Huaiguang Church's meditation method, Ian can even see some primitive psychic matter appearing in Elan's body.

  This is the advantage of psychic users. They will naturally conceive souls and enter the ranks of sublimators... Although there is no potion, as long as they have psychic power, they are sublimators. This is the iron law on Terra.

   And Ian was also keenly aware that the so-called connection between Elan and the "crystallized creature" was not in the body... but in the soul.

  What does this mean?

  Thinking so, they came to a seafood breeding factory run by Bai Zhimin.

   It can also be regarded as the entrance and exit where Shasha and Qingchao Scott met before, and Hua Anshuangdie took Elan out to play later.

  Qing Chao has been waiting here for a long time.

   "Boss."

  I saw Ian and others approaching from a distance, the blue-haired swordsman stood up from the floating bridge along the coast, and a bright flash of light also lit up at the same time: "Oh! (Boss!

   "Qingchao, Shasha, looks very energetic."

Ian stepped directly into the sea, and a huge armored shark galloped towards Ian... It was the same movement as Elan's before, but with a little more force, and Ian almost failed to get out of the source core. The power is used to resist the impact of sharks.

   "...you grow up pretty fast."

Taking a breath, Ian carefully observed Shasha's current situation, and found that the other party was simply too healthy—the dumb silver shell, the smooth body lines, the regular electrical crystals protruding from the back, and the increasingly perfect soul Structure... It can be said that Shasha is the healthiest and happiest monster he has seen in so many years!

  This kind of health cannot be explained by natural growth! Even if Ian used the precognitive vision to guide Shasha to grow, it was nothing more than that, but he hadn't seen Shasha for almost a whole year. How did the other party develop so well?

   "Whoa? Whoa!"

  As soon as you think about it, ask, and after Shark knew Ian's doubts, he twisted his body and connected some soul links to tell the young man some information.

   "You said, there was an elf who ran over to see you, and carefully guided you on what to eat and what not to eat, and also told you how to swim to exercise every corner of your body..."

  Ian felt a little familiar when he heard it: "Isn't this Master Oak? He really came to Nanling to see you?"

Master Oak is the leader of the elven candle holders who came after Anfa, he is also a friend of the Marquis of Barton, and he is also a shark lover—he is obviously a sublimator of the wood attribute, but his heart light body is a shark. A very special third-level powerhouse.

Master Oak said he was chasing Anfa, but in fact it should have been sent by the Ember Lantern family to protect Anfa's elders. He should have noticed that Ian had contact with Anfa, and he is also a person that the Marquis of Barton is optimistic about. Ian also focused on it. And after finding out that Ian had kept a healthy shark, he also went to the South China Sea Maze with great interest, and came here to point out the growth of the shark.

   "Next time I go to Canaan Moor, if I have the opportunity to meet Master Oak, I really have to thank him."

Ian took a closer look at Shasha again, and found that Master Oak should really teach him everything. He couldn't help feeling: "The world is full of wonders, and Shasha you can be regarded as the protagonist template. If you eat fish and collide with a boat in the South China Sea, there will be people Sending you cheats from the sky... really good luck!"

"Oh!"

   Shark doesn't understand what a protagonist template is, it just saw Ian, so it was very happy to spin around in the sea.

  However, in addition to this, Ian also noticed that the state of the shark in the silver chip also has the same tendency of "crystallization biochemical" as Elan. It is the result of the same model being affected by higher crystal organisms.

   Now things become interesting...Ian began to think that this might be the influence of Crystal Lake?

   But it doesn't matter, they will go to it soon to see what's going on.

  With Shasha's current size and strength, coupled with Ian's protection, it doesn't take long for it to lead everyone to the Great Labyrinth of the South China Sea.

  The dark silver giant shark speeds through the increasingly vibrant South China Sea, and then reaches the depths of the far sea, swimming towards a secret passage on the bottom of the sea.

  It used to be the channel used by the crystal dragon to enter and exit the big maze, and it was also a shortcut to the crystal lake. Now it is the entrance for the sharks to return to their nests. Ian and others avoid the sight of others and enter the secret passage inside the big maze.

   "It's my first time here."

Leaning on the back of the shark, Elder Purdue curiously stroked his beard and looked around at the wonders around the deep sea—because of the large storm, the heat dissipation of the labyrinth’s energy system was abnormal, and most of the core of the surrounding seabed showed a strange molten solidified state. , It looks like an alien, with regular octagonal prisms standing on the smooth seabed.

   After entering the channel, the closer to the inner side of the crystallization lake, the more obvious this regular crystallization phenomenon.

The rich natural source quality and spiritual energy field made the elder frown, and he was slightly startled: "The natural source quality here is almost substantive... No wonder the maze master is bred in the maze, which is far beyond the normal magic beast. With this kind of environment, even the most common tidal fish school can breed a fish king that is almost a dragon species, right?"

   "Yes. And the source quality in Crystal Lake is very pure. Elder, if you have time in the future, you can bring Elan here to rest and exercise."

The reason why Ian did not recommend this place to Elder Purdue and Elan before was mainly because Elder Purdue was not so free at that time, and the Sequoia natives were defeated. As the deputy of Viscount Grant, he still had a lot of work to do, let alone What is needed to nourish the body is not a high source quality environment, but a stable ordinary environment.

  Elan hadn't received formal training at that time, and rashly entering a high-quality environment may cause physical dysfunction.

   Just like the upper city of the imperial capital, ordinary people may die even if they get close to it. Crystal Lake is certainly not that dangerous, but it is easy to cause good things to turn into bad things.

   But Elan can now enter the meditation of the 'tranquility' level, so the Crystal Lake is only good for him.

"I understand."

  Elder Pude also knew this, he nodded solemnly.

   "When will our Xiahuiling be able to have such a good environment."

Qing Chao also feels that for his second energy level, the environment of Crystal Lake is also very superior. It can not only improve the body's adaptability to the source quality, but also accelerate the growth of the soul, which is beneficial and harmless It's a pity that unlike Elan, he will live in Port Harrison for a long time in the future, so he can often come to practice.

   "Not without it."

  Ian thought about it, but found that Xiahui Territory really has a similar area: the bottom of Xiahui Lake is a similar high-source quality environment.

  But the bottom of the lake is too narrow, and it is not a karst cave area like Crystal Lake. It needs to dive to a depth of a thousand meters. Ordinary people can't do it at all, and it can only be used by sublimators.

   When the Earth Vein Furnace is researched, it may be possible to imitate the principle of the 'Ghost Crystal Engine' to create an artificial high-source quality area.

   While everyone was feeling emotional, Shasha arrived at Crystal Lake.

   Inside Crystal Lake, everything is the same as when Ian left last time, Shasha took good care of it.

   Shasha sent everyone to the shore, while Ian went directly to the crystal island in the center of the lake.

  He wants to see what happened to the crystallized dragon egg, which is suspected to be the source of the 'crystallization' on Elan and Shasha.

  The crystallized dragon egg is located in the center of the crystallized island. It was originally only the size of a human head, but it was continuously catalyzed and bred in the spiritual energy field around the crystallized lake. Now it is half the size of a human being.

  The whole egg looks like a huge diamond composed of countless regular crystals, with thousands of facets crystal clear, absorbing all the brilliance around it, and releasing warm and pure light to the outside.

  Cracks have appeared in its shell, just as Shasha said, it has hatched, but something went wrong, the little crystal dragon did not leave the egg, but maintained this state of 'coming out'.

   But its vitality has not declined, but has become more vigorous as time goes by.

  Silver blue pupils flickered.

  【Ether crystal dragon egg】

  【The first energy level · special species · cornerstone · edible】

  【One of the three eggs catalyzed by the ether crystal dragon with its last life, beyond the designer's expectation, perfect evolution, reaching the full form】

[As the only dragon egg without defects, it should have normally hatched the first naturally conceived ether crystal dragon, but because it was polluted by the insect nest, it had a special change. The link between my brothers and sisters who should have died young has undergone indescribable changes]

  【Eggs have hatched, but the final birth is still one step away】

  【Contains source quality: 2853.1391 base units】

  【…】

"what?"

  Ian was a little surprised.

He has long known about the abnormality of the crystal dragon egg, and the pollution of the insect nest, or the transformation, has indeed existed for a long time—as an old opponent who has fought against the crystal dragon for so many years, the insect nest has no way to target the crystal dragon , Ian is unbelievable.

  The insect nest’s countermeasure against the crystal dragon can basically be called ‘I can’t beat you and I can’t beat your cub? ’—The swarm’s pollution of the dragon eggs is quite direct and effective, even if the ether crystal dragon finally uses its own life force to purify, it still leaves abnormalities.

  The two dragon eggs taken away by Master Gesai were the two most abnormal ones.

  He saw this, so he deliberately used these two dragon eggs as the mission target, and left the intact one for Ian.

   But now it seems that the connection between the crystallized dragon eggs seems to be far beyond Ian's imagination... This one that seems to be intact still has some residual troubles.

  Of course, it may not be a future trouble... In a sense, the introduction of superior external forces is a kind of "evolution" for the fickle group with extremely high adaptability, such as crystal dragons.

"interesting."

Ian thought of the 'three-headed crystalline dragon' that emerged in the sea on the way of the insect swarm, and he couldn't help squinting his eyes: "Could it be that the three-headed crystalline dragon is not my evil transformation, but Is it necessary?"

   "The three crystallized dragon eggs, because of the influence of the swarm, have essentially been linked as one, instead of three separate existences...so the three must be hatched together?"

   "The reason why the egg in my hand has not fully hatched is because the connection between the three dragon eggs transcends time and space, so that it cannot fully mature before the other two eggs hatch?"

   This is just a guess, and Ian feels that this guess is not quite right.

   This doesn't explain the impact on Shark and Elam.

   The relationship between the three dragon eggs should be simpler than he imagined.

  There is no point in thinking too much. Ian stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and touched the dragon egg.

   Then, he felt a feeling almost like cheering.

   An inviting feeling.

   And ... a 'sense of expectation' waiting to be directed.

It's like an ignorant cub, a machine that has just been born without a program, and doesn't know how to eat or breathe, so even if it has been born, it can only stay in the eggshell...waiting for the "teacher" arrival.

   tells how it should 'exist'.

  How to become 'life'.

  Ian is its 'teacher'.

   Its... [parents].

   "How can I teach you?"

   Ian asked.

   Then, he got a response.

  —Of course it is a personal demonstration.

  —Use another body.

At this moment, Ian felt that his spirit had received an invitation, which was similar to the feeling that he had descended on Shasha, the "master of the maze" with the authority of the maze, and his soul suddenly became more a perspective.

   "Another body... Interesting."

  With a guess in his mind, Ian sensed it, but he didn't notice the danger—he was immediately interested: "Okay, then try."

   So he slipped his consciousness into that perspective.

   Then, Ian felt his eyes go dark.

   And when he opened his eyes again.

  Ian found that he had turned into a dragon.

   It seems that the building at home has a positive test and has been blocked. All I can say is, code with peace of mind!
