CHAPTER TEXT:
The Flood Dragon dared to fight back.
On the airplane, when Chen Chu thought of the Innate Spatial Runes, deep beneath the sea, in the Ice Crystal Palace, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast lay on the steps, contemplating the scale embedded in the forehead of the Silver Giant Dragon across from it.
The Silver Giant Dragon, which had been under its gaze all along, shrank its neck and couldn't help but growl, “Ao Batian, why are you staring at the great Seistia?”
The Thunder Flame Giant Beast came back to its senses and let out a low growl, “It's nothing; I was just thinking.”
“Roar! Really?” The Silver Giant Dragon seemed a bit suspicious, feeling that the Thunder Flame Giant Beast was thinking of something bad just now.
As the two giant beasts roared, even the low growls reverberated throughout the palace, causing the surrounding waters to churn.
Suddenly, the Thunder Flame Giant Beast growled, “Seistia, can you lend me the spatial runes integrated into your dragon scales to comprehend?”
“Roar! Ao Batian, what are you planning to do?” The Silver Giant Dragon suddenly stood up, its left claw covering its head, warily watching the Thunder Flame Giant Beast.
The Innate Runes are naturally condensed from the powers of heaven and earth under special conditions, containing certain law powers.
In such cases, whether ‘humans’ or other creatures, once discovered, as long as they resonate with the runes, they can bear the innate essence and integrate the runes into their bodies.
Moreover, because the runes are innately complete, as long as nothing unexpected happens, one can cultivate or grow to the pinnacle of the ninth level of heaven, similar to an Innate Awakened One.
With a bit of opportunity, they can ascend to the throne and become mythical beings.
This was also the reason why Seistia was restrained by its mother in their territory, forbidden from going out.
As long as it was well-fed and slowly grew, with the integration of the Innate Runes and guidance from a mythical-level behemoth, becoming mythical was only a matter of time.
And because it had already fused, others or other creatures could only obtain the Innate Runes by killing it.
Furthermore, the runes obtained after killing would be incomplete, only the inscribed parts on its body, as the core law principles and韵 had fused with its soul.
This was also why the Silver Giant Dragon was suddenly on high alert.
If it weren't for them having interacted for more than half a month, considering each other ‘acquaintances,’ the Thunder Flame Giant Beast's earlier words were enough to ignite a battle between the beasts.
“Roar! Don't be nervous, Seistia; we are ‘good friends’ who have met without fighting. I won’t take your things,” the Thunder Flame Giant Beast growled lowly.
“I just recently broke through and gained some insights into power, so I wanted to see your runes for comparison.”
“Is that so?” The Silver Giant Dragon's eyes revealed suspicion, but it slowly relaxed its guard.
“I would never deceive you; look…”
As the Thunder Flame Giant Beast spoke, it extended its right claw, and instantly, dozens of tiny scales brightened up, emitting a wave of invisible binding energy.
The runes inscribed on these scales vibrated weakly, but when dozens of them were layered together in a matrix format, they formed a powerful binding force a hundred times stronger.
Whoosh!
As the golden flames burned on the right claw, they quickly formed a golden fireball with a diameter of five meters.
With a continuous influx of Golden Flame energy and the invisible binding force compressing it, the fireball gradually emanated a scorching wave that even made the Silver Giant Dragon feel a bit startled.
“This is what I’ve gained over the past few days: using my sturdy scales as a carrier, I inscribed a power rune with magnetic field constraints on them.”
“Each rune alone has weak power, but the binding force generated when dozens are layered together is formidable.”
