Chapter 556: Chapter 205: The Virtue of Metal Dragons (Part 2)

“This body of mine has been with me for over two thousand years.”

“Damn it! It’s a disgrace! A blatant disgrace! I actually… actually…”

A few Great Wizards, full of resentment, were ultimately intimidated by Land’s terror and could only hand over all the divine blood and World Serpent blood they had just collected.

Although the Butterfly Beast only mentioned divine blood, they had no time to play word games now.

Several spatial bags drifted in the starry sky.

The Butterfly Beast flapped its wings, extended its tentacle to collect them, and revealed a look of delight.

The anomaly here also caught the attention of other wizards still battling.

They all gave up chasing the other two beasts collecting divine blood and fled in panic.

The battle for divine blood finally ended at this moment.

Land, with his lone power, intimidated this group of wizards and beasts.

These guys had no thought of entangling with each other now; the only thing left was the idea of acquiring as much divine blood as possible.

Of course, due to the terrifying abilities Land just displayed, even the other beasts did not dare to confront him directly.

His group was the one collecting the most divine blood and World Serpent blood.

Until the very end.

Land’s group found a desolate gaseous planet nearby to land.

Preparing to divide the spoils.

They took out all the divine blood and World Serpent blood.

The blood floated above the gaseous planet.

Emitting radiant light.

Among the divine blood, only the Blood of the Dawn Sun was present; the Earth Mother Goddess’s strength was greater than the Dawn Sun’s, even in such fierce battles, she didn’t bleed as a result.

Each drop of Blood of the Dawn Sun.

Bright yellow and crimson, round like a sphere.

Emitting terrifying heat and energy, each drop of Blood of the Dawn Sun was almost the size of a basin.

The heat lingered, even surpassing the Blood of Land.

There were thousands of such blood drops.

And the blood of the World Serpent, similar to what the Rainbow Dragon extracted before, was much less than the divine blood, probably only around a thousand drops, since he wasn’t the one being besieged.

Still, the feat that the Dawn Sun accomplished while being besieged, injuring the World Serpent and getting it to bleed so much, was a testament to terrifying strength.

It was vastly different from his current self.

Land looked at these bloods, thoughts of growing stronger and a rush of greed surged in his heart.

The World Serpent’s blood’s benefits for him were apparent.

Even the Blood of the Dawn Sun, which he hadn’t tasted yet, but having absorbed divine power from the sun, he believed these things would bring him significant enhancement.

He couldn’t help but think.

Why not just rob them? Take down the Butterfly Beast? Or capture it alive?

As an Evil Dragon, he was capable of anything.

His gaze unintentionally changed slightly.

The nearby Butterfly Beast, with keen senses, immediately flapped its wings, retreating several kilometers backward.

Then its body filled with the Power of Time, it cautiously said:

“You, dragon, what was that gaze just now? You aren’t thinking of a double-cross, are you? Didn’t you claim to be a Metal Dragon? You don’t seem like it.”

She said so.

The Rainbow Dragon and the Deer-headed Monster, hearing this, couldn’t help but glance at Land.

In their gaze, a trace of disdain was revealed.

A Metal Dragon? It’s not even a funny joke, is it?

The most crucial thing was, this idiot in front of them seemed unaware?

“Ahem~ What are you thinking, really, in this perverse mindset, seeing other creatures in a sordid way.

I, as a proud descendant of the Metal Dragon Race, could never go back on my word.

With Bahamut above, your words just now insulted my character; you would hurt my feelings with such words.”

Land expressed displeasure and a trace of sorrow.

“…”

The Butterfly Beast, hearing him, changed its expression, gazed at Land for a long time before cautiously saying:

“Ah, if that’s the case, I apologize for the previous misunderstanding, sorry, sincere, honest, and kind descendant of the Metal Dragon Race.”

“No problem, as a descendant of the Metal Dragon Race, who values integrity and virtue, I won’t pursue such small matters.

Let’s proceed with the distribution of divine blood as we discussed earlier.

By the way, since it’s a fair split, we have four here, so let’s divide these 3650 drops of divine blood evenly into 912, no problem?”

“Uh? Aren’t you… one group?”

“A group? Of course not, our relationship is the same as yours, just allies.”

“Oh, oh. Then I have no issue.”

The Butterfly Beast nodded.

Although it felt somewhat shortchanged, it had no reason to refute.

Although she hadn’t exerted herself fully.

But the collected divine blood should be the most, after all, she held off three Great Wizards collecting blood.

Yet Land wouldn’t bother with such details.

He earnestly distributed the divine blood one by one.

Of course, the blood of the World Serpent, he kept all for himself.

In the end, he didn’t decide to go back on his word to the other’s reward.

It wasn’t out of sheer goodwill, but due to another purpose.

He did, however, have some apprehension toward this Exotic Beast.

After all, it possessed the Power of Time.

Previously, he had acquired it as well.

Calling the Future is an extremely profound application of the Power of Time.

If this fellow before him could also achieve such feats, just how strong would she be in the future?

If she had already reached the level of a King Beast, wouldn’t he be making trouble for himself?

Land grinned at the Butterfly Beast and said:

“By the way, my friend, I am Land Saphis Oakben, may I have your name?”

“Me? Just call me Light Butterfly.”

She said while swallowing the Divine Blood.

Over a dozen scorching drops of Divine Blood entered her mouth.

The body of the Butterfly Beast was hot, showing no apparent abnormal change.

But looking at the Energy she just consumed, much of it seemed to have recovered.

This appeared to have improved her mood quite a bit:

“You really didn’t lie to me; the blood of a Divine Being truly can restore some Energy.

In future battles with enemies, I no longer have to worry about the lack of Energy.”

As she spoke, she stored all the blood into a pitch-black void that opened out of nowhere.

“Hahaha~ Of course, we of the Metal Dragon Race always guarantee quality.

By the way, we’re friends now, aren’t we?”

Land suddenly said.

“I suppose… we are…”

“Then between friends, you’d lend a little help, wouldn’t you?”

“I suppose I would.”

“Hahaha! That’s perfect, don’t worry, it’s not a big deal.

I just want you to use the Power of Time on me, to age me.”

“Huh? Are you sure?”

“I am sure.

“What a strange request, in my thousands of years of life, I’ve never met someone like you.”

The Butterfly Monster muttered, looking incredulous.

The nearby Rainbow Dragon and the Deer-headed Monster appeared thoughtful.

Soon, the Butterfly Monster sprang into action.

The Power of Time on her fell upon Land, accelerating his aging.

Soon he felt hungry and began to devour the gaseous planets.

Within a radius of several hundred kilometers, a great windstorm swept through.

This situation continued for several hours.

Land’s body length increased by about 20 meters.

He estimated that, given his current Physical Growth, he had only aged three or four months.

This left him somewhat dissatisfied, frowning as he looked at the Butterfly Beast.

This fellow was panting heavily, her chest and belly rising and falling, looking exhausted.

“Are you already worn out?”

Land couldn’t help but ask.

“I’m done. This time I used up about ninety percent of the Power of Time and can’t continue,” the Butterfly Beast said tiredly.

But soon, she looked at Land with some astonishment:

“Are you still in your growth phase? What an exaggerated guy.”

“Land, by catalyzing yourself, skipping the normal growth process, you’re risking your growth potential.

Moreover, as part of the True Dragon Race, our lifespan is also limited.

Even my Rainbow Dragon family has a lifespan of just over ten thousand years, and without becoming Divine Beings, our physical strength will still diminish with age.”

The nearby Rainbow Dragon voiced a warning.

“Potential? If potential cannot be quickly transformed into strength, then one might be killed before having the chance to argue with anyone.

Not long ago, I witnessed fights between True Gods, King Beasts, and Titled Wizards, do you think our current strength is enough?”

Land still urgently wanted to enhance his strength.

Of course, the talk of catalyzing himself with the Power of Time and depleting potential was dismissed by him.

He had already been warned about this by the Enchanting Demon Goddess Doroshi.

However, speaking of potential?

Who could possibly know how much potential he truly had?

This was a question even he, as a dragon, didn’t know the answer to.

Thinking of Doroshi, Land couldn’t help but miss that gal.

It’s been over ten years since they last met. That Enchanting Demon must have accumulated quite a bit of Divine Power by now, right? Isn’t it time to use this to strengthen himself again?
