Chapter 431: The Complete Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 431: The Complete Electromagnetic Tyrant

"What do you mean by taking a chance?" Ji Xinghuo asked, perplexed.

"It means the dragon chooses you as much as you choose it," Titanium Cobalt Blue explained. "The stronger and rarer the dragon, the higher its intelligence, comparable to ours. The Titanium Cobalt Dragons are even smarter than most humans."

"Currently, there are three Titanium Cobalt Dragons and five incubating Titanium Cobalt Dragon eggs in the Dragon Nursery," she continued.

"If you want to obtain a Titanium Cobalt Dragon, you must communicate with them and gain their voluntary acceptance," Titanium Cobalt Blue said, shaking her head. "It will be extremely difficult for you as an outsider to gain their recognition. Titanium Cobalt Dragons are even more arrogant than True Dragonfolk, and the personalities of those three are rather peculiar, which is why they haven't acknowledged a master yet."

"This is so troublesome…" Ji Xinghuo scratched his chin. "What do you think are my chances of having a Titanium Cobalt Dragon acknowledge me as its master, Blue?"

"At most, not more than ten percent." Titanium Cobalt Blue clearly didn't hold out much hope. Suddenly, she added, "Unless the Dragon King intervenes and forces the Titanium Cobalt Dragon to accept you. My dragon was assigned to me by the King. Otherwise, when I was younger, how could 'Electro-Xiao'—a Titanium Cobalt Dragon of the Fallen grade—ever have acknowledged me as its master?"

'Electro-Xiao' was the name of her Titanium Cobalt Dragon.

Ji Xinghuo shook his head inwardly.

Since he hadn't joined the Titanium Cobalt family, the Dragon King certainly wouldn't intervene on his behalf.

If he truly couldn't get a Titanium Cobalt Dragon to acknowledge him, then he would have to settle for a dragon of the next lower grade.

While the Divine Dragon breed was the strongest, other dragon breeds also had immense potential, not inferior to the Titanium Cobalt Dragons. According to the dragon vein grade classification, they were known as "Heavenly Dragon breed," and many Heavenly Dragon breed families had produced Dragon Emperors.

He wouldn't consider any dragons below the Heavenly Dragon breed.

"Even the Heavenly Dragon breed is incredibly powerful," Cheng Sheng said enviously. "My Steel-Edge Dragon is just an ordinary Golden Dragon breed. It pales in comparison."

"We'll cross that bridge when we come to it," Ji Xinghuo said, not wanting to dwell on the topic.

"Blue, I'm going to begin the fusion with the exotic species now," he declared.

"Follow me," Titanium Cobalt Blue said, personally leading Ji Xinghuo to the middle level of the tower-like structure. "I've already instructed the servants to prepare this area for you. These three levels will be your residence from now on. Let me know if you need anything."

Ji Xinghuo swept the area with his electromagnetic sensing ability and instantly understood the layout.

The combined area of the three levels was over five thousand square meters, complete with a grand hall, bedrooms, guest rooms, a dining room, entertainment room, martial arts arena, and cultivation chamber, to name a few. The cultivation chamber, in particular, was part of the entire energy base station of Titanium Ring City, capable of amplifying the magnetic field to create an effect similar to an "Aetheric Energy Room," greatly accelerating the speed of cultivation.

"Once you become a Dragon Master, the level below will be the dragon's nest. We can make the necessary modifications and arrangements according to the type of dragon you obtain," Titanium Cobalt Blue explained.

"Thank you, Blue," Ji Xinghuo said gratefully.

"There's no need for excessive thanks between us. You're one of us now," Titanium Cobalt Blue said with a soft laugh. "Your most important task right now is to increase your strength."

Ji Xinghuo nodded. "I understand."

"We won't disturb you further. We await your good news," Titanium Cobalt Blue said as she and Cheng Sheng took their leave.

After they left and the door closed, Ji Xinghuo immediately entered the cultivation chamber.

The five-hundred-square-meter room had metal-cast walls and floors, with a ceiling height of five meters, making it spacious and bright. The temperature was comfortable, and various environmental parameters such as gravity, temperature, magnetic field, and etheric energy density could be adjusted within a certain range, making it extremely convenient.

He took out several items: the Terminal Dragon Eye, the Dragon Vein Ancestor's exotic species, and the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body's exotic species.

After some thought, he decided to fuse with the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body first.

The fusion process for this exotic species was simple. He just needed to implant it into his flesh, in any part of his body.

The exotic species resembled a dragon scale.

Ji Xinghuo sliced open the skin on his arm and embedded the dragon scale within, then controlled the wound to heal. Soon, he could feel the exotic species integrating into his flesh, causing a stinging sensation, but it wasn't unbearable.

Moments later, the dragon scale had completely dissolved and been absorbed into his body.

A sharp and rapid energy coursed through his entire body, traveling along his veins to every corner of his being.

From his bones to his skin, from his organs to his brain, every one of Ji Xinghuo's hundreds of trillions of cells began to transform and strengthen. His whole body felt like it was being crawled over by countless ants—both painful and itchy. He barely managed to suppress a cry, but he maintained his control, carefully sensing the process of the exotic species fusion.

Gradually, his body became incredibly hard, and a silvery-gray luster appeared on his skin, as if he had been transformed into a statue forged from an alloy.

The metallic luster grew brighter and brighter, and Ji Xinghuo felt as though he had been frozen, unable to move even a single finger. Even his thoughts slowed, but his consciousness remained clear, and his electromagnetic sensing became increasingly acute.

After more than ten minutes, Ji Xinghuo couldn't move at all! He had turned into an alloy statue, but the electromagnetic stellar power within him circulated faster and faster, and his strength surged wildly.

The invisible electromagnetic field intensified, with Ji Xinghuo at its center. The light in the cultivation chamber distorted and flickered, and around him, the air seemed to materialize magnetic force lines, with currents of electricity erupting.

Ji Xinghuo watched as the metallic luster on his skin faded, returning to normal, but the sense of resilience and toughness remained, indicating a dramatic transformation within despite a similar outward appearance.

The Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body was a superior exotic ability, an upgrade from the superconductor permanent magnet body.

In addition to amplifying electromagnetic fields, it accelerated the transmission of stellar power and conducted energy with near-zero loss, vastly enhancing the power of all electromagnetic abilities. The Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body also granted him incredible defense and strength!

With a thought, Ji Xinghuo's entire body transformed into a titanium-cobalt-based superconductor alloy form, reflecting a silvery-gray luster and possessing unparalleled hardness.

He clenched his fist with force, and the air around it exploded!

Boom! The cultivation chamber shook with an explosive vibration as electromagnetic stellar power jumped between his fingers, forming a spiral current of electricity in his palm that condensed but did not disperse, radiating astonishing light and heat. The air around him ionized, emitting a sizzling sound.

This was the Electric Light Spiral Fist!

Ji Xinghuo looked at the ball of electricity in his palm, amazed at his own level of control over electromagnetic stellar power.

And this was just the most basic effect of the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body.

Its true power lay in its ability to alloy his body from the inside out, enhancing his hardness, resilience, and strike resistance to an unprecedented level.

Previously, Ji Xinghuo's defense relied mainly on the fluid-form barrier, the Sacred Dragon Scale Armor, and the strengthened skin granted by the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Blood. Now, with the ability to transform his entire body into an alloy form, his physical defense alone was formidable.

"Now I should be able to withstand my peak state and activate Dragon Madness, Overload, and Dark Incarnation without my body collapsing," Ji Xinghuo thought.

His strength had also increased significantly.

"My bench press should be over 1,000 tons now," Ji Xinghuo speculated without testing. "That's triple the strength I had before the fusion!"

And this was only the first level of the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body.

Ji Xinghuo opened the interface of the Myriad Phenomenon Star Pupil and took a look. The information about his new ability had already been updated.

[Ability: Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body (Level 1/2221)]



"Not bad!"

Ji Xinghuo was delighted. Finally, the "Electromagnetic Tyrant" profession template was complete. Even if he didn't fuse with any other abilities in the future and only upgraded his existing ones, his potential and strength would far surpass those of his peers.

However, the Electromagnetic Tyrant was not a final profession. Rumors suggested that there was room for further advancement.

Beyond the template, there were also supermodel abilities.

Many electromagnetic abilities could complement the Electromagnetic Tyrant, enriching his means and enhancing his power.

Additionally, the Electromagnetic Tyrant could develop numerous application techniques, which remained to be explored.

The fusion of multiple dragon vein exotic species from the Titanium Cobalt Dragon could result in the "Titanium Cobalt Magnetic Pole Body," which was one of the reasons why the Titanium Cobalt Dragon was ranked among the divine dragon species.

The next step was the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Vein!

"Even though I only have the dragon blood and dragon body, if I can raise them to a high enough level, I should be able to merge them into the Titanium Cobalt Magnetic Pole Body as well," Ji Xinghuo speculated.

His gaze shifted downward.

[Spiritual Source Energy: 571065]



He was about to channel his spiritual source energy into upgrading the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body, but he hesitated. He was in Titanium Ring City, where many powerful individuals possessed the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body. If he suddenly upgraded his ability by several levels right after fusing with it, it might attract unwanted attention and cause trouble.

Especially from the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King.

Ji Xinghuo was wary of the means and insight of the Star Shepherd Sages. He must not do anything out of the ordinary under their watchful eyes.

Even if Titanium Cobalt Blue noticed something amiss, he wouldn't be able to provide a satisfactory explanation.

"I'll upgrade later," Ji Xinghuo decided, suppressing his urge. He calmed himself before picking up the "Terminal Dragon Eye" to examine it further.

This expansionary wonder was artificial.

In addition to providing an extra fusion opportunity, it could also enhance eyesight, granting an ability similar to the super-limit ability "Dragon's Eye." It enabled the user to receive infrared light, see in the dark, enhance dynamic vision severalfold, and see farther.

However, it wasn't of much use to him, as the Myriad Phenomenon Star Pupil was the best visual ability in the world.

Ji Xinghuo swallowed the Terminal Dragon Eye.

Within a few minutes, he had digested this expansionary wonder and gained another opportunity to fuse with an exotic species.

His vision also improved, but it was negligible compared to his existing abilities.

Next was the fusion of the "Dragon Vein Master."

Ji Xinghuo didn't know the origin of the "Dragon Vein Master" exotic species granted by the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King. It was likely collected from a deceased True Dragonfolk, and its quality was the same as the one he had obtained from killing the Canging Fire Opal.

Whether from monsters or intelligent races, the level of the exotic species dropped to the first level after the host's death.

[Exotic Species: Dragon Vein Master]



[Grade: Superlimit]



[Fusion Success Rate: 92%]



[Upgradable: Yes]



Ji Xinghuo viewed the information about the exotic species, noting that the fusion rate had increased by 2% compared to the last time. This was likely due to his previous fusion with the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body.

He controlled the skin and flesh on his back to split open, revealing the alloyed skeleton beneath. He then placed the exotic species onto the exposed bones.

Instantly, a chilling sensation traveled up his spine to the top of his head.

The marrow within the fragments swiftly merged with Ji Xinghuo's skeleton, altering the nature of his own marrow. After over ten minutes, the effects began to show.

His intentionally roughened skin, a disguise to appear as a native of Cang City, rapidly became smooth and fair, his pores shrinking, and his body attaining a well-proportioned and harmonious form. His facial features softened, not only restoring his original appearance but also enhancing it, making him even more handsome and charismatic. His eyes held a cold gleam, and his wild and untamed demeanor now carried a touch of nonchalance, exuding an extraordinary aura that set him apart from the ordinary.

This transformation of his appearance was no less impressive than plastic surgery.

However, the most significant change was in his aura, which now exuded perfection and arrogance. Anyone who saw him would have no doubt that he was a true dragonkin.

Moreover, he was not just any ordinary dragonkin but surely a member of a powerful and noble-blooded family!

"Now I truly am a dragonkin," Ji Xinghuo said with a smile.

Recalling his experiences in Cang City, he wondered if anyone would recognize him if he ever returned there in the future.

As a registered dragonkin bestowed with the Dragon Vein Master by the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King, he was worlds apart from the despised "blood thieves." From now on, he could travel anywhere in the True Dragon Empire without fear or restriction.

On the interface of the Myriad Phenomenon Star Pupil, a new ability also appeared.

[Ability: Dragon Vein Master (Level 1/269)]



Ji Xinghuo immediately learned the detailed effects of the Dragon Vein Master. It was somewhat similar to Symbiotic Exotic Species, yet also vastly different.

The Dragon Vein Master granted the user dragon genes, allowing them to possess dragon blood and emanate a dragon's aura. This would cause dragons to view the user as one of their own, leading to recognition and a symbiotic relationship.

In this relationship, the user was the master, and the dragon was the assistant.

The dragon master could unilaterally obtain the dragon's power and abilities, while the dragon could absorb the master's stellar power to accelerate its growth and evolution, awakening the latent abilities within its bloodline.

The dragon master could also seek expansionary wonders for their dragon, fusing them with exotic species.

However, there were very few expansionary wonders that dragons could utilize, and suitable exotic species were also rare. Thus, the dragon's evolution and awakening were mostly relied upon.

At Level 1, the Dragon Vein Master could only access one-tenth of the dragon's strength.

Additionally, only one dragon ability could be obtained.

With each level upgrade of the Dragon Vein Master, the proportion of strength obtained would increase, as would the number of obtainable abilities. However, each ability the dragon master acquired from the dragon would occupy one fusion opportunity.

This was both a drawback and an advantage.

The drawback was that the dragon master's fusion opportunities were limited, so they had to choose abilities wisely. The advantage was that even if the dragon died, the abilities would not be lost.

Therefore, almost every dragon master would also fuse with "Symbiotic Exotic Species" to complement the Dragon Vein Master.

The Dragon Vein Master could establish a symbiotic relationship with multiple dragons.

However, each additional dragon, like extra abilities, would occupy a fusion opportunity, and one would also have to deal with the conflict between the dragons.

Upgrading the Dragon Vein Master was extremely challenging.

With each upgrade, one had to choose between selecting a dragon's ability or choosing another dragon, and the vast majority of dragon masters opted for the former. This was because dragons possessed high intelligence, valued loyalty, and had stubborn and unpredictable personalities. Rarely would a dragon tolerate its master forming a symbiotic relationship with another dragon.

This symbiotic relationship was sometimes even more exclusive than a marital relationship, and choosing another dragon could be likened to committing adultery.

Ji Xinghuo, however, was not thinking that far ahead.

He glanced at the upgrade requirements for the Dragon Vein Master and thought that he could immediately level it up several times if he weren't concerned about arousing suspicion.

"Never mind," he decided. "I'll find an opportunity to leave Titanium Ring City, and then I'll upgrade these two abilities."

After fusing with two exotic species in succession, Ji Xinghuo's stellar power had also increased, surpassing 3,5000 points.

He took out a portion of the Essence of the Azure Sea and, after a brief examination, decided to save it for later.

With his two Aetheric Resonances, the five portions of the Essence of the Azure Sea he had on hand would definitely not be enough. He would need at least ten portions, or possibly even twenty, to ultimately raise his stellar power cap to 100,000 points, surpassing Gu Xingli.

"The Cang Dragon Clan," Ji Xinghuo muttered.

He would also have to obtain the Magnetic Pole Kinetic Slash from the Whale Dragon Clan in the Azure Waves Dragon Domain, so it seemed he would have to pay a visit to the Azure Waves Dragon Domain.

He stood up and left the cultivation chamber, heading to the top floor to meet with Titanium Cobalt Blue. "Blue, I want to go to the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Nursery right now," he said without hesitation.
