Chapter 1305
Xia Fei was shocked!
The entire galaxy was in shock!
The Yggdragons lived up to their name, standing on top of the biological food chain, only second to the Ancient Megadragon.historical
Yangji brought Xia Fei to make an inspection of his territory and returned to that white twenty thousand mile castle.
Yangji and Hanxiao were already waiting by a wide platform.
!!*Whoosh*
The white dragon swooped down, and Xia Fei leaped off from the dragon’s back. Aside from the shock that he was feeling, there was exhilaration.
Sometimes, life was just that unpredictable. Xia Fei had been searching for the traces of the Dragons and came up empty-handed, yet when he was least expecting it, he had bumped into and inadvertently become friends with the Yggdragons.
A Dragoon roaming the galaxy! Xia Fei had managed to experience an unparalleled pleasure of this world, and it was all thanks to the Fiends. That clan of the legends, which was said to comprise all the greatest strategistical geniuses, had long gone extinct; as such, Xia Fei had no idea why the Yggdragons were so adamant on being friends with Xia Fei and the Fiends.
Xia Fei and the three royalty of the Yggdragons entered a large palace. The grand palace of the Yggdragons, of course, gave off an atmosphere both sacred and majestic. It was unknown just what sort of power it took to construct such an extremely white castle.
After they took their seats, Yangji and his family smiled brightly at Xia Fei. As someone who had a habit of thinking, he was presently in deep thought. Meanwhile, Yangji and everyone seemed to really like seeing Xia Fei think, so they did not bother him.
“He’s really alike. He’s exactly the same as that person when he first arrived. I still remember it vividly.” Yangguang’s spouse smiled as she whispered this to her husband.
Madam Hanxiao was always smiling. Despite the fact that she was a Yggdragon, her smile was very pure and hid no other emotions or thoughts. Every action she made was with that faint smile.
Yangguang chuckled. “I told you; there are some things that will be passed on. Xia Fei is most definitely a descendant of them!”
This was when Xia Fei lifted his head up and asked, curious, “Whose descendant am I?”
He could not help but light himself a cigarette again. Cigarettes had a very pungent smell to them, and Xia Fei would not normally smoke in front of others, but as he was struggling with some complex emotions right now, this was already his third stick.
“Friends, the people that I’m most fond of!” Yangguang replied naturally. “Those guys were the only ones who had never once treated us as aliens. They’re nothing like those so-called powerhouses that look at us with strange gazes, even going as far as to say that people not of the same species don’t share.. something.”
“‘People not of the same species don’t share the same minds.’ That’s a very selfish saying. Actually, even people of the same species may not work together in commonality but will more likely harbor resentment and fight among themselves, instead.”
*Bang*
Yangguang slapped the table, “That’s right! That’s also what that person said back then!”
Xia Fei was speechless. It looked like these people were really treating him as a Fiend, but he was clearly human. This had not changed from young till now.
“Am I very similar to the Fiends?” Xia Fei decided not to beat around the bush anymore and asked them this directly.
Yangguang burst into laughter. “Not just similar. You’re practically the fiendiest Fiend!”
Xia Fei was shocked. This statement was thought-provoking. While he had been making use of the Fiend Clan’s laws and weapons, this was the first time someone directly identified him as a Fiend!
There was also the Skywing wolfpack. If Xia Fei was a Fiend, what would that make the Skywings? Could the entire clan be descendants of the Fiends as well?!
In the Annihilation Universe, the place which represented the greatest concentration of strength across all the realms, the Fiends were a tabooed race. If what Yangguang said was true, then that would make Xia Fei an enemy to the entire Annihilation Universe!
Instantly, Xia Fei felt his blood boil!
He had originally asked a simple question, but a strange sensation suddenly surged inside him, same as when he ate the Lasting Draconid Essence fruit. Except this time, it was even more intense than before and was like a time bomb that had exploded within him!
*Swoosh*
Before Xia Fei could even process his thoughts, every pore in his body abruptly opened, and his internal qi was released outward.
The main source of energy from the Lasting Draconid Essence fruit was Qi flow, and if Xia Fei failed to expel it as soon as possible, he could very well explode and die!
“Lasting Draconid Essence! You’ve consumed Lasting Draconid Essence?!” Yangguang leaped to his feet and yelped in surprise.
Yangji, who was standing at the side, asked blankly, “I did indeed hand Xia Fei Five Lasting Draconid Essences the last time.. He couldn’t have possibly eaten all of those, could he have?!”
Yangguang glared at his son in spite before he went sprinting to Xia Fei. “Such foolishness! Xia Fei has yet to reach the Annihilator tier; just one Lasting Draconid Essence alone could kill him!”
Yangji lowered his head as he tried to explain in a small voice, “I thought he’s about to make a breakthrough, so I gave him some.”
Yangguang held Xia Fei and asked with much urgency, “Tell me the truth: Just how many Lasting Draconid Essences did you take, and how did you consume them?”
Xia Fei, who was panting heavily by now, rasped, “Five. I chewed one up and swallowed the rest.”
“Swallowed?! You actually dared to swallow Lasting Draconid Essences?! The Draconid Qi they produce can tear you apart!” Yangguang yelled with widened eyes.
Yangji was also speechless. How could he have known that Xia Fei would dare to swallow the Lasting Draconid Essence?!
The secret contained within the fruit known as Lasting Draconid Essence was the Draconid Qi!
Draconid Qi referred to the tyrannical Qi that the Draconids expel! It was all contained inside, and it would express itself like a storm.
The trick to consuming Lasting Draconid Essence lay in the user’s physique, and this was to say that the amount of Dragon Qi one should take must be according to their level.
Xia Fei was not exactly at a high level yet, so he could not ingest too much Draconid Qi. The correct consumption method ought to have been to chew Lasting Draconid Essence, so as to release a portion of the Dragon Qi and so that he would only be taking in about half of its energy.
Alas, the situation right now was that, while Xia Fei had consumed the first Lasting Draconid Essence with the right method, chewing before swallowing, and was naturally inconsequential—the powerful Dragon Qi helping purify his body and in reaching the Peak Founder cultivation, Xia Fei had actually swallowed the rest!
Those four Lasting Draconid Essences had not been digested this whole time and had just been stored in Xia Fei’s stomach. Gradually, their outer shells got dissolved by his stomach acids and split open, sending all that Dragon Qi to be absorbed by Xia Fei’s body!
Yangguang sweated profusely as he muttered, “Four Lasting Draconid Essences, and only one has been activated. If all four get activated, Xia Fei will most likely be finished!”
“Is it possible for us to retrieve the other three?” asked Yangji in a hushed tone.
Yangji felt guilty seeing the critical urgency of Xia Fei’s situation. After all, as he was still young, he had no idea that the Lasting Draconid Essences were the pride of the Dragons and that humans would have a very hard time withstanding the powerful Dragon Qi.
“It’s impossible! The exterior of the Lasting Draconid Essences are already very fragile; just the slightest touch will cause them to shatter. Right now, we can only pray that the remaining three will be able to hold on, giving Xia Fei time to absorb this one first,” Yangguang spoke gravely.
They got Xia Fei to lie down on the floorboards, making as little movement as possible while maintaining stable breathing.
Yangguang advised, “Xia Fei, there are no better solutions right now, so do your best to use the energy the Lasting Draconid is giving off! Whether you divert it into cultivation or convert it into other forms of energy, it’s fine as long as you don’t keep any of it inside your body!”
Xia Fei did not answer. In fact, he was already doing what was advised.
On one hand, he was expelling out even more Dragon Qi from his pores; on the other hand, he was consuming large amounts of the energy by focusing on cultivation. He was devoting every fiber of his being to madly cultivate!
Unfortunately, the energy contained within the Lasting Draconid was too strong. In about half an hour later, the second Lasting Draconid burst as well!
Xia Fei experienced a different type of breathing, as his irises turned violet!
His Soul Mark, the Soul Mark in his seventh brain region, was rushing like crazy!
Advancement? Xia Fei did not dare to think about it. Right now, he was solely concentrating on using up all the energy that he was provided! Safeguarding his life was far more important at the moment!
This situation was extremely dire!
This was when Yangguang raised his head, turned to face the outside of the palace, and hissed, “Who is the blind fool that actually dared to barge in at this time?!”
*Rumble*
Two wings, which spanned eight hundred miles, unfurled!
Yangguang leaped down from the grand palace, which was well over ten thousand miles wide, and revealed his true form as he went diving toward the base of the mountain! He was just like a predator that had pounced on its prey!
“Old Dragon King, it’s me again! Do you dare to fight another match with me?!”
This voice had come from the base of the mountain. Yangguang was stunned. He could not dare to believe his ears!
Was it actually him?!
As he got closer, he saw a middle-aged man standing on the ground. He was a lanky figure, with a head of white hair blowing in the wind and his hands behind his back. A slight smile was plastered on his face.
*Whoosh*
Yangguang landed right in front of the man and grabbed him by the shoulders before flying right up to the grand palace.
“You came at just the right time! You’ve always bragged about how your medical skills are unparalleled. I happen to have someone who needs your saving right now! Save him and I will bury the hatchet with you. Fail to save him however.. *Roar*!”
Yangguang let out a powerful bellow, which had shocked this person so greatly that he covered his ears and he went slightly pale.
“Old Dragon King, just who could it be that worries you so?” the middle-aged man asked curiously.
“A descendant of my friend!” Yangguang boomed.
‘Friend?’
That man was surprised. Suspicion filled his eyes, but he said nothing.
Soon, the old dragon Yangguang brought the middle-aged man to his own grand palace without any consultation whatsoever. He pointed to Xia Fei and said, “That’s him! You’d better act fast. If he dies, I’ll really take your life this time!”
The middle-aged man recognized Xia Fei and was in for a shock once more. He mused in his disbelief, “Xia Fei?! Is that Xia Fei?!”
“You recognize him?!” Yanguang asked, surprised.
“Of course, I do. I personally examined him twice in the past.”
This person said as he made his way to Xia Fei’s side, wondering, “How did Xia Fei get into this state?”
Yanguang hurriedly related the situation of how Xia Fei had eaten Lasting Dragon Essences on his own. The man immediately panicked upon hearing this, lamenting, “How reckless! He was practically toying with his life here!”
*Swoosh*
This person’s palm flashed, pulling out a golden coconut from out of nowhere! It shone glittery gold, very extraordinary looking.
Wasting no time to use tools, this person immediately poked out a hole on that coconut’s shell with his finger and then poured the milky white juice inside it to Xia Fei’s mouth.
“Quick, drink it!” this person growled.
Xia Fei was in absolute agony and could not care less about anything else, guzzling down the coconut juice as much as he was able to.
Fact sure was stranger than fiction. The coconut juice was like a thick viscous glue, and it proceeded to seal up the Dragon Qi, which was running rampant inside Xia Fei’s body; it even enveloped the other two Lasting Draconid Essences that had yet to break.
“Could this be..” Yangguang was startled, pointing at the golden coconut as he gasped.
The middle-aged man answered, “That’s right. That was the coconut that had flowered from the coconut tree in God’s Eden all those years back. It’s the last one, too.”
Yangguang nodded. “So it’s a miracle fruit from God’s Eden. With that, Xia Fei’s life should be safe now, shouldn’t it?”
“That’s hard to say. It will still depend on Xia Fei’s ability to control energy and a smidgeon of luck,” the middle-aged man replied.
All of a sudden, the middle-aged man turned to Furball. Seeing as Xia Fei was in trouble, Furball and Little Goldie were of course very anxious.
“There is another solution, but Xia Fei may not agree to it.” The man eyed Furball unpleasantly.
