Chapter 538, Ancient God Source

Translator: Silavin

 

Divine Bone’s body was ground to dust, and the bone fragments floating in mid-air suddenly began to emit a dim glow, then gathered in one place, ultimately transforming into a fist-sized translucent white crystal.

 

Divine Bone had perished yet he had left behind such a thing. It was something Lu Fan had not anticipated.

 

He flew forward, grasped the crystal in his hand, examined it carefully, and was immediately shocked.

 

Ancient God Source Usage: Unknown Description: A product of Divine Bone Ancient God’s death, containing the supreme Power of the Ancient God sealed within. If one could find a way to make it their own, they would gain strength comparable that of an Ancient God.

 

This was not the same as Ancient God Essence, but the root of its power, the Ancient God Source!

 

From the description alone, it was clear that this Ancient God Source was definitely many times more powerful than Ancient God Essence.

 

Although the description stated that by converting the power of the Ancient God Source to one’s own use, one could obtain power comparable to an Ancient God. But how to use it was something Lu Fan did not know.

 

Just as Lu Fan was studying the Ancient God Source, a light flashed from the Devouring Dragon King’s body, and immediately after, she transformed back into her Human Form, just with wings on her back, as she flew to Lu Fan’s side.

 

Although he had seen her Human Form before, having such a peerless beauty suddenly appear beside him still made Lu Fan feel somewhat awkward.

 

Lu Fan glanced at the Devouring Dragon King and asked, “Why did you transform into your Human Form when you were fine as you were before? Abandoning your Giant Dragon body doesn’t benefit you, does it?”

 

“Are you worried about me?” The Devouring Dragon King covered her mouth and softly giggled. In that moment, her charm was truly breathtaking.

 

She then continued with a smile, “Don’t worry, this time I’m simply appearing in Human Form, I haven’t abandoned my Giant Dragon body. I just feel like it. Occasionally appearing in Human Form is quite fun, you know?”

 

“Fun? In the future, please don’t Transform into a Human when there are people around us. It would cause chaos.” Lu Fan said irritably, looking at the Dragon horns on her head.

 

[She is such a beautiful woman, yet she has Dragon Horns growing out of her head… anyone would find that strange, wouldn’t they?]

 

The Devouring Dragon King did not seem to mind and said, “Would it? Don’t you Humans have something called… cosplay? In this Form, I wouldn’t be considered anything unusual, right?”

 

Lu Fan could not help but look at the Devouring Dragon King with new found respect. “You seem to know quite a lot.”

 

The Devouring Dragon King nodded and said. “Of course I do. I’ve eaten no fewer than eight thousand people, if not ten thousand, so I naturally have some understanding of my food.”

 

Lu Fan: “…”

 

“Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. Let me have a look at what you’re holding!” After speaking, the Devouring Dragon King directly reached out and took the Ancient God Source to examine it.

 

Lu Fan said, “Hey, that’s mine. You can’t just Devour it without my permission.”

 

“Do I look like a Dragon that eats anything and everything?” The Devouring Dragon King gave Lu Fan a side eye, then tossed the Ancient God Source back to him.

 

“This is indeed a good item, but I have no use for it.”

 

Lu Fan caught the Ancient God Source and asked with surprise, “You know what this is?”

 

The Devouring Dragon King said, “I roughly know what it is. Ancient Gods are actually Immortal Beings. When they ‘die’, they leave behind this Ancient God Source. Many years later, their consciousness will revive through the Ancient God Source, allowing them to accumulate power once again, and reform back into an Ancient God.”

 

“You can think of the Ancient God Source as the seed of an Ancient God. This seed will eventually take root and grow into a towering tree.”

 

After listening, Lu Fan was shocked. Looking at the Ancient God Source, he asked, “You mean Divine Bone will be reborn through the Ancient God Source?”

 

“Yes.” the Devouring Dragon King nodded.

 

Lu Fan frowned, contemplating that such an existence could not be allowed to remain, otherwise, he might not be able to kill it each time.

 

If another Monster Tide attacked the city, there would surely be millions of people who would unjustly die.

 

As if seeing through Lu Fan’s thoughts, the Devouring Dragon King said, “You’re thinking of destroying this Ancient God Source? Stop daydreaming. As I said, Ancient Gods are Immortal Beings. You can kill them, but you cannot destroy their Ancient God Source.”

 

“But you can rest assured, this Ancient God has been killed once, and in the short term, he cannot revive. By the time he shows any signs of revival, you’ll have long since turned to bones. Only beings like me, Great Giant Dragons with long lifespans, might be fortunate enough to meet this Ancient God again in our twilight years. But that should be tens of thousands of years from now.”

 

“Tens of thousands of years…” Upon hearing this, Lu Fan’s sense of crisis immediately diminished significantly.

 

It seemed that in the short term, Divine Bone would not be able to reappear. By the time he actually reappeared, it would have nothing to do with him.

 

After tens of thousands of years, his bones would have turned to dust, so he could not possibly still come out to suppress this Ancient God, could he?

 

By then, it was not even certain if the Human Race would still exist.

 

The Devouring Dragon King continued with a smile, “So, there’s no need for you to worry him. This Ancient God Source isn’t a ticking time bomb. On the contrary, it’s very useful item to you. Others might not find any use for this Ancient God Source, but you can use it to enhance your strength.”

 

“Oh?” Lu Fan immediately became interested. “How?”

 

The Devouring Dragon King added, “It’s simple, use it just like how you would with Ancient God Essences. Those two Quasi-Dragon King level Pet Dragons of yours were originally just Flying Dragons, right? They gradually evolved into becoming Quasi-Dragon Kings because you fed them Ancient God Essence, didn’t you?”

 

“You can use the same method again. This time, feed them the Ancient God Source. Between Giant Dragons and Dragon Kings, there’s a natural abyss of Bloodline Power that cannot be crossed through ordinary evolution methods. So, you could so far make these two Flying Dragons evolve into Giant Dragons, even reach the Quasi-Dragon King level, but you have no way to make them become true Dragon Kings. This Ancient God Source is going to be the method that allows them to cross this divide, complete their final evolution; allowing them to become Dragon Kings!”

 

After a pause, the Devouring Dragon King continued, “Come to think of it, you’re quite fortunate. They are Twins, and it is as though they share one body. If you evolve one into a Dragon King, the other will evolve along with their Brother. This is equivalent to using one Ancient God Source to achieve what would normally require two. An absolute steal!”

 

“Soon, you’ll have two more Dragon Kings, and their power and strength won’t be weaker than any of your other Pet Dragons.”

 

After hearing the Devouring Dragon King’s words, Lu Fan was shocked to his core! One Ancient God Source could allow the Fallen Corpse Holy Dragon Kings to undergo their final evolution and become true Dragon Kings!!
