it's over...
The thought surfaced in his mind with a cold, desperate intensity.
The death storm, powerful enough to instantly obliterate him and his soul, was less than ten meters away from him!
Just as that cold, destructive aura was blowing onto his cheek!
At this critical, life-or-death moment!
"Click! Click! Click!"
A sudden, sharp, and violent impact sounded from his waist!
A Poké Ball that had been so quiet it was almost invisible was now shaking and jumping violently at an almost frantic frequency without warning!
The anxiety and determination emanating from inside the ball even penetrated the cold metal shell and clearly reached Lin Che's skin!
It's a Mini Dragon!
A flicker of surprise crossed Lin Che's mind.
However, he was not given any chance to react.
The next second, a dazzling red light, full of life, broke free from the Poké Ball's restraints and burst forth on its own!
Amidst the light, the petite figure that had been silently absorbing the power of the [Dragon Scales] and growing steadily appeared before Lin Che!
It took the initiative and acted without hesitation to shield its fragile body between its master and the devastating mental storm!
Faced with that terrifying torrent that could make even elite-level elves tremble and become immobile, not a trace of fear was revealed in its clear, jewel-like eyes!
Yes, it is an innate pride and majesty that comes from the deepest part of one's bloodline!
"Groan——!!!"
It raised its small head and faced the overwhelming darkness, letting out a clear, high-pitched dragon roar filled with ancient majesty!
This dragon's roar pierced through the mental blockade, like a sharp sword tearing apart this desolate airspace!
Immediately afterwards, an indescribable, supremely holy light of evolution erupted from its body!
The light was so dazzling, so eye-catching!
Like a sun rising slowly in the night, it instantly dispelled all the gloom, illuminating this desolate place shrouded in darkness and death as bright as day!
Chapter 60 Advancement to Dragonair! Dragon Guardian! Gentle soothing, the Doctor's relief!
That spiritual storm, powerful enough to tear apart souls and crush steel, is raging with unprecedented intensity.
At the eye of the storm, within that devastating chaos, a burst of light suddenly shone forth.
It was neither scorching hot nor dazzling.
It was a kind of holiness and purity that cannot be described in words.
It shines quietly, unwavering as the surrounding space is distorted and torn apart, as if it were an eternal lighthouse that has existed since the beginning of the world, marking the only coordinates for this desolate dead zone.
Amidst the light, the tiny body of the Dratini is undergoing a dramatic transformation.
The bones are growing and breaking, producing a subtle yet clear crackling sound.
Its body was rapidly elongated, and every inch of its flesh was reshaped, extended, and transformed into a mythical and elegant posture.
The once delicate, baby-like skin was now covered with newly formed scales. These were not rough keratin, but a crystalline substance resembling solid energy. Light flowed across them, refracting a deep and brilliant sapphire hue, and the edge of each scale shimmered with a faint, sacred glow.
Finally, when the last scale was perfectly fitted into the tip of the tail, the all-encompassing light of evolution quietly receded like the tide.
Time seemed to be paused at that moment.
A graceful, slender creature quietly coiled up in front of Lin Che.
Its very existence is the ultimate interpretation of the word "beauty".
[Ding! Your Dratini has successfully evolved into Dragonair!]
[Level soared to LV.30!]
The cold system notification sound exploded in Lin Che's mind, waking him from the near-suffocating shock.
Evolution is complete!
The leap in level was merely a superficial phenomenon. What truly shook Lin Che to his core was the extraordinary aura that Haklong was currently displaying!
Its control over its own energy has reached an unbelievable level!
The devastating mental storm continued to roar, carrying thousands of unknown totems and transforming into a torrent capable of crushing everything, rushing headlong towards this newly born life!
Faced with this desperate scene, there was not a trace of panic in Hakron's eyes.
Those eyes, as clear as rubies, held only a calm, still depth.
With a gentle coil of its slender body, its supple and agile dragon form instantly created a perfect ring, tenderly and seamlessly protecting Lin Che, along with the exhausted Arcanine and Ninetales beside him, right in the very center.
next second.
An indescribable aura emanated from beneath each of its scales.
It was a pure, unadulterated aura of dragon origin, derived from the most ancient form of life!
noble.
majesty.
sacred.
This aura spread rapidly, condensing into a visible circular barrier made of pale blue energy outside Hakron's body!
The barrier was very thin, almost transparent, with a water-like halo flowing across its surface, making it look extremely fragile.
"boom--!!!"
The cataclysmic mental storm has finally arrived.
The terrifying torrent, a mixture of the spiritual power of tens of thousands of elite-level elves, crashed solidly and forcefully into the seemingly fragile pale blue barrier without any fancy maneuvering!
An energy powerful enough to level a small mountain exploded at that moment!
Lin Che subconsciously closed his eyes, preparing to withstand the impact that was enough to instantly vaporize him.
However, the anticipated destruction did not come.
There was no violent tremor, no ear-piercing explosion, and not even a trace of residual energy seeping in.
He opened his eyes in astonishment.
Before him lay a scene he would never forget.
That torrent of spirit, capable of easily crushing any elite-level spirit and even threatening a Champion-level spirit, was like hitting an insurmountable dimensional barrier the moment it touched the blue barrier!
All the rage, all the destruction, all the chaos were blocked out by that thin barrier, completely and without a scratch!
Within the barrier, the wind and waves are calm, and the weather is as warm as spring.
Beyond the barrier, energy rages, and the world ends.
The black waves composed of unknown totems also seemed to be caught in a great confusion and fear.
They could clearly sense the noble and pure dragon aura contained within that blue barrier.
That was an absolute suppressive force originating from the very top of the life hierarchy!
This oppressive force caused their chaotic, instinct-driven consciousness to generate a primal fear originating from the depths of their souls!
Their offensive was momentarily halted!
For the first time, that frantic momentum faltered and paused.
This brief but invaluable stalemate gave Lin Che, who was exhausted and completely trapped in a desperate situation, the only chance to catch his breath and turn the tide of the battle!
"Well done, Hakron!"
Deep in his mind, Lin Che let out a silent sigh of admiration for his companion.
The opportunity is here.
The undead totems' frenzied mental onslaught momentarily froze under the Dragon-type pressure of Hakuryu. This was a perfect opening, enough to turn the tide of battle. With a single command, Arcanine's Extreme Speed and Ninetales' Ice Barrier could tear open a breach and strike directly at the heart of the chaotic storm.
But he didn't.
His gaze pierced through the mental barrier, a barrier already riddled with spiderweb-like cracks, erected by Hakuryu and Kurama together. What he saw was not a group of ferocious, malicious enemies.
The torrent of thousands upon thousands of black symbols, with each collision and each shriek, did not originate from murderous intent.
That's a form of protection.
A near-obsessive act of protection born of decades of despair.
They are guarding a soul that has long since passed away, a great will trapped in this distorted spacetime, unable to find peace.
The stabbing pain inside his skull continued unabated, and each wave of mental shock sent waves of weakness through Lin Che's limbs. He gritted his teeth, forcibly swallowing the metallic taste rising in his throat, and did his utmost to maintain a clear mind.
Forcibly attacking them will only provoke a more violent resistance.
That's not the solution.
That was a desecration of a deceased scholar.
Lin Che's gaze was fixed on the elegant and sacred blue figure in front of him.
He passed an order to Hakron, an order so gentle it seemed completely out of place on this battlefield.
"Hakuron".
His voice was a little hoarse, but unusually firm.
"Show them the power of the [Dragon Scales]."
Hakron raised its long neck slightly and let out a long, drawn-out dragon roar.
This dragon's roar was not intimidating or aggressive in the slightest; instead, it was filled with an ancient rhythm that originated from the most primal source of life.
At the center of its forehead, the light beneath its skin began to flow.
A golden scale, which had long been completely integrated with its flesh, blood, and soul, slowly and clearly emerged.
It wasn't a physical object, but rather a brand, a blessing from an ancient dragon god.
