Chapter 76 Dragon Inheritance, Disastrous Situation
"Alright, we have already finished our training. It's time to leave." Kim said standing next to six girls. Although none of them actually comprehend a new law of nature, they still got stronger compared to before.
Especially Kim and Yeosho. Because Kim managed to learn all those breathing techniques, he got stronger. As for Yeosho, because her realm was too low, she tried to comprehend the Aura.
And, she actually succeeded in just a few hours. Before she couldn't even find a trace of Aura in her body but now just after a few hours of training, she actually managed to comprehend the Aura.
Although it might not be as strong as others, it was still Aura.
Now, she had better and more flexible control over her internal energy as well. Her attacks would only get stronger thanks to Aura.
According to Neyol, it was probably because she increased her strength by a lot without reaching a higher realm. It's like stacking more and more experience and then suddenly releasing all of it at once.
That being said, everyone managed to extend their knowledge about this world.
But, when Kim mentioned about leaving, everyone looked at each other with confusion. Finally, they turned their heads at him and asked.
"Do you know how to leave?" 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖
"Uh..." Kim suddenly paused. He realized that he didn't know how to leave this place. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel ashamed.
He looked at others and asked.
"We need to find a way to leave this place no matter what."
Hearing his words, others smiled and nodded their heads. At this moment, Seo Yeon raised her hand and said.
"I have something that I need to tell you."
Everyone turned their heads at her as she continued.
"I am not sure if it is true but I felt a little of life energy from that dragon statue. It comes from the core of this dragon statue."
Kim turned his head at the dragon statue and suddenly, his eyes lit up.
'Maybe the dragon inheritance is inside this dragon statue. Should I try it?'
Although he had this thought in his heart, he didn't act immediately instead he turned his head to others and asked.
"So, should we do something about this dragon statue?"
Neyol suspiciously looked at him and asked.
"You don't expect that there is a dragon inheritance inside this dragon statue, right?"
Kim's eyes suddenly widened. His face turned red as he looked at her with an embarrassed expression.
"Hehe! It wasn't hard to guess. You tried to find something inside this place before. But, you didn't find anything which made you disappointed. Now you got another option, your eyes instantly lit up."
Although Kim felt embarrassed about it, he didn't hesitate to agree.
"I feel like there has to be an inheritance inside this place. After all, who would just leave the information in such a hidden place? There is not even a door to leave this place."
"The only way to return is to fly through that hole but it seemed like only Martial Lord Realm can fly that easily unless you have mastered the Wind Element."
Hearing his words, everyone nodded their heads and finally looked at Yeosho.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I can't fly even through that hole even with Electromagnetic Field."
Neyol rolled her eyes and said.
"We are not asking you to fly out of this place. Instead, you need to use that spiral bomb to destroy that dragon statue. Among all of us, only you have the most destructive attack."
Yeosho opened her mouth and 'O' shaped her expression. Then, she quickly released Tojo's internal energy. The red internal energy cloak surrounded her body and she extended her hand.
At the same time, she turned her eyes to Neyol and said. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛o𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂
"It's not Spiral Bomb. It's called 'Tojo Style- Red Spiral Shuriken Blast'."
Hearing the name of the attack, Neyol felt speechless. Although the name sounded domineering, it also sounded idiotic.
She knew the name of the Nine-Tails inside her was Tojo. But, using his name in the attack seemed quite disturbing.
But, she didn't say anything. She just let her use that attack. The massive internal energy from Tojo merged with her internal energy and condensed a dark red ball on her palm.
That dark red ball started to spin at an amazing rate. Slowly, more and more internal energy condensed around that ball. After it reached the size of a basketball, she threw it at the dragon statue.
[Tojo Style- Red Spiral Shuriken Blast]
Boom!
The moment it came in contact with the dragon statue, it exploded. The flames from the explosion spread around. It moved toward them at an incredible pace, making it faster than the speed of the wind.
[Wood Style- Flame Resisting Wooden Wall]
Seo Yeon instantly moved in front of everyone and condensed a massive amount of internal energy into her palm. The small bud emerged from her palm and instantly changed into a massive tree, conjuring several branches in front of her.
In an instant, these branches formed a massive wall in front of the upcoming explosion.
Bang!
The flames didn't just come with heat. It also brought an immense shockwave that almost broke the wooden wall. Normally, wood should be burned by a flame.
But, this time, the wooden wall was able to hold on against the massive flames from the explosion.
"Wow! Yeon, why is your wood able to hold against the flame? Shouldn't it get burned easily?" Yeosho asked like a curious child.
Seo Yeon smiled and said.
"Although wood is normally weak against flames, don't forget how the wood is formed. There are three things that are required to conjure wood; Vitality, Earth and Water."
"Since it possesses both Earth and Water elements, it has a high resistance against the flame. But, only if the ratio of water and earth is equal to vitality. In dried wood, the ratio of earth and water isn't equal."
"For example, dried wood consists high ratio of the earth element and a low ratio of water which makes its connection with vitality weak. So, naturally, it can't resist the flame. But my wood is different."
Hearing her words, not just Yeosho, even Kim was surprised. After all, he knew that wood style was the combination of earth and water.
But, he never thought it would also require vitality. Suddenly, he frowned and asked.
"Wait, does that mean your vitality would be consumed every time you use it?"
Seo Yeon shook her head and said.
"My Wood Style and my sister's Lava Style are similar. In my sister's case, she uses the vitality absorbed from the spiritual energy to extend the durability of her cells against the Lava."
"Otherwise, her cells would be burned if the Lava Style is overused. Contrary to her, I don't absorb much vitality from spiritual energy so that my internal energy has a vitality that is required to use Wood Style."
"But, if I use heavier moves and go beyond my limits, I will consume my own vitality to condense the stronger wood."
Only after hearing her explanation, Kim calmed down.
"Hey, look!" Neyol spoke as she pointed her hand at the dragon statue. The dust and smoke had already dissipated so the dragon statue was quite clear in front of them.
The massive golden dragon statue had melted and only the strange green ball remained. This ball was revealing a green glow which was quite strange.
Seeing this, Kim instantly regained his spirit and rushed toward the green ball.
He turned and looked at Neyol, smirking.
"See? I told you there would be an inheritance."
Hearing his words, Neyol frowned. She didn't care about the inheritance but she had a bad feeling about this inheritance. Of course, it was just her instincts so she didn't say much.
Kim was completely unaware of her thoughts. Instead, he was interested in this green glow. But, he wasn't an idiot. He didn't try to touch it instantly but rather observed it.
After finding that there wasn't anything he could absorb, he turned around and asked.
"Do you think I should touch it?"
Neyol didn't speak. She didn't want to disagree because she didn't want to go make a decision against him. Normally, if she had proof, she would've disagreed but without any proof, she didn't want to create a conflict of opinion.
As for others, they didn't know anything at all. They just nodded their heads but suddenly, Yeosho received some information from Tojo. She immediately spoke to Kim.
"Tojo told me that there is a high soul power inside that ball. Be careful while absorbing it."
Hearing her words, Kim narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, he took a deep breath and opened his palm. A strange small lamp appeared on his palm.
"What is this?" Neyol asked with confusion.
"It is a Chaos Lamp. Although I am not sure if I will suffer from soul attacks, I still need to be careful. Using this soul lamp, I will be able to defend against the soul attacks."
Saying so, he slowly walked toward the green ball and raised his hand. He didn't hesitate to hold the lamp in his left hand and hold the green ball in his right hand.
Suddenly, the green ball changed into green liquid and shot toward his forehead.
In an instant, it entered his sea of consciousness. Before Kim could realize it, he was facing a life-threatening situation.
Roar!
The green blood released the phantom of a green dragon which roared inside his sea of consciousness.
His entire soul was shaken and slowly, a tear appeared in his soul.
