Chapter 365: Dragon Essence
Chapter 365: Dragon Essence
Name: Lu Wu
Strength: Archmage 0-Star (Actual Combat Power: Lord Level)
Summoned Beasts: Small Skeleton (Gray), Small Dragon (Gray), Han Han (Advanced), Ten Clouds Sword (Leader 3-Star)
Skills:
Omniscient Enhancement (Special) (Master)
Lu Clan Sword Technique (Superskill) (Master) (Contains Various Skill Variations)
Dragon Form (Special) (Master)
Unyielding Power (Special) (Proficient)
Domain: Omnipresent Domain (90% Mastery)
After unleashing your domain, you can directly copy and use the forces employed within it, with a certain probability of mastering those forces.
A domain skill that leans more towards support.
Summoner Talent: Inherited Power (Awakening)
Damage Sharing (Increased Sharing Range, even with beings not under contract.
Ps: This sharing has a high failure rate against stronger opponents.)
Explanation: Strong in attributes, but weak in actual condition.
Given your current severe injuries and the lack of concentration in your energy core, achieving a Lord-level combat power is already impressive.
...
This is Lu Wu's current attribute.
His skills have been reset.
Most of his skills were absorbed by the Lu Clan Sword Technique.
Lu Wu also gained a new skill, Omnipresent Domain, with a direct mastery progress of 90%.
The gains are indeed significant.
Additionally, Lu Wu has an unseen benefit—the system's upgrade.
This golden finger, as it's called, has a low presence.
Many times, Lu Wu himself forgets about its existence, believing that his achievements are solely due to his own hard work.
However, this golden finger has played a crucial role in Lu Wu's growth, offering significant assistance.
After Lu Wu's advancement to the Archmage rank, the system's new function, allowing him to remotely view attributes, surprised and delighted him.
Previously, the system only added remote attribute viewing; now, it can also analyze an opponent's attributes through their energy.
For instance, Lu Wu can now observe some of Tsukimaki Kouraku's attributes by analyzing the energy he left in Lu Wu's body, even without seeing Kouraku in person.
...
Item: Tsukimaki Kouraku's Energy
Grade: Epic
Explanation: Energy of the epic-level summoner, Tsukimaki Kouraku.
The primary energy attribute is Fire, and its power is roughly equivalent to a 1-Star Leader.
While not highly destructive, it is sensitive and can detect the movement of energy within your body.
Should your energy further strengthen, it may be detected.
Ps: Energy analysis can predict the opponent's attributes but may have significant errors. See below for details.
...
Name: Tsukimaki Kouraku
Strength: Epic 0-Star
Mastered Skills: ???
Summoner Talent: ???
Domain: ??? (Suspected Flame Domain)
Explanation: Despite being an Epic 0-Star, he is still beyond your current capabilities.
Charging at him recklessly could result in a swift demise.
...
Lu Wu was disappointed with this attribute.
It only confirmed that Epic rank exists above Archmage, offering no additional insights.
Lu Wu could only console himself, thinking that perhaps seeing the person in person would yield more information.
Subsequently, Lu Wu calmed himself and focused on his internal state.
Dozens of energies filled his body, and he needed to understand their nature and effects to manage his current condition better.
After examining his internal situation, Lu Wu noticed the most striking energy swirling around his heart.
...
Item: Dragon Essence
Grade: Epic
Explanation: This is the essence extracted from the heart of an epic-level dragon summon beast. It has longevity-enhancing and strength-boosting properties. Absorbing it entirely will significantly benefit you.
...
Lu Wu gasped at this attribute.
His perception of Tsukimaki Kouraku improved further.
Kouraku's generosity in offering such a precious item made Lu Wu think of him as a living Bodhisattva! However, this perception of Kouraku was incorrect.
Apparently, to correct Lu Wu's incorrect perception, Old Tsukimaki Kouran arrived not long after Lu Wu woke up.
As soon as he arrived, his eyes fixed on Lu Wu, silent and expressionless.
But the chilling aura emanating from him made Lu Wu keenly sense his anger and murderous intent.
Especially when he focused his gaze on Lu Wu's heart, Lu Wu even felt that he wanted to tear out his heart.
Yes, this wasn't an illusion; he indeed had such a thought.
Of course, he had to wait until Lu Wu completely lost his value before taking action.
What he needed to do now was to discipline Lu Wu thoroughly.
Let Lu Wu recognize his current situation and be a good tool.
"It seems I've been too kind to you, which is why you keep making such stupid mistakes.
So, it's time I make you understand the consequences of your actions."
Kutsuki Kouran spoke, and several people entered, ready to forcefully carry Lu Wu away.
But Lu Wu closed his eyes, saying, "Old man, I suggest you don't bother. I'm in no condition for your antics.
My body is covered in severe injuries. If you push me, I might just die."
Kutsuki Kouran's expression darkened.
Just as he was about to speak, Lu Wu beat him to it.
"Don't say anything. You've saved me twice and spent so much on me.
You've already exposed your true intentions.
You're more worried about me than anyone else.
To save my life, you're willing to use epic-level resources. Do you think you still have any intimidation left in front of me?"
Lu Wu opened his eyes, looking directly at Kutsuki Kouran, "I can tell you clearly, if you try anything with me, in any form, I'll harm myself.
Though I don't want to die, I'm willing to be half-dead.
A half-dead me is of no value to you, but you can't bear to kill me, and you'll have to spend a lot of resources to keep me alive.
In this situation, who's at a disadvantage?"
"You dare threaten me?" Kutsuki Kouran roared.
His epic-level terrifying aura erupted, causing Lu Wu's face to pale.
But he showed no fear.
"Old man, what's the joke here? I'm in this state, unafraid of death, and you think I'd fear threatening you?
I'll threaten you then. What can you do? Kill me? Harm Akari and the others?
Come on, let's do this together.
If you make a move, I'll hurt myself!"
Lu Wu was fearless.
Kutsuki Kouran's expression turned uglier, but he had no choice.
Lu Wu didn't push it further.
As Kutsuki Kouran's face turned dark, Lu Wu spoke, "Old man, all you want is a tool.
All I want is better treatment and respect.
How about we both take a step back? You don't harm me, and I'll cooperate and focus on recovering, being a good tool.
Isn't that better for both of us?"
This proposal was terrible for Kutsuki Kouran.
He couldn't accept it and was unwilling to see Lu Wu so fearless, even willing to die together.
In his eyes, Lu Wu was just a tool, not worthy of negotiating terms.
But at this moment, he had no choice.
The more he invested in Lu Wu, the more he couldn't let Lu Wu die.
So, despite Kutsuki Kouran's anger, he had no option but to leave with a cold huff.
Watching Kutsuki Kouran depart, Lu Wu's gaze turned cold, filled with murderous intent.
Clearly, he was just as eager to kill Kutsuki Kouran.
"Wait, old man. Your end is near." Lu Wu said coldly, thinking of Old Tsukimaki's attributes.
