Chapter 6: Second Growth

“I can use you to test how lethal my new poison is to living creatures.”

Lei Luo slowly retreated. When he reached a safe place, he spat out his poisonous breath and began to infect the seawater on a large scale. He controlled the seawater to sweep forward.

The Golden Lizard was not an Alligator Snapping Turtle, and its vision was flawless. He could not allow it to dodge!

The seawater surged over and covered an extremely wide radius. The Golden Lizard’s eyes flickered. Seeing that it couldn’t dodge, it assumed a defensive stance and opened its mouth to roar.

When Lei Luo saw this, he immediately felt confident. It worked this time!

In the end, low-level beasts were still low-level beasts. Even though they had some intelligence, their brains were still lacking.

The green seawater covered the surrounding sea area. However, since the poison was being controlled by Lei Luo, it did not affect the unrelated creatures. Instead, it entered the body of the Golden Lizard bit by bit.

It had to be said that the body of a peak Level-2 magical beast was very strong. The poison continued to enter its body. Only after five minutes did the Golden Lizard begin to shake.

By the time the seawater, which had been tainted by Lei Luo’s poisonous breath, turned clear, the Golden Lizard was lying on the seabed.

“This is a good opportunity!”

Lei Luo’s eyes flashed and he rushed forward without hesitation. He opened his mouth and bit the Golden Lizard’s neck. Then, his body swayed vigorously as he floated to the surface of the water to avoid unnecessary battles due to the bloody smell.

At this moment, the Golden Lizard had already lost consciousness. It was still motionless after its vital parts had been bitten. After a while, it simply died.

When Lei Luo surfaced, there was a sudden wave in the distance. A creature was rapidly approaching. A crescent-moon-shaped horn appeared on the surface of the sea. It looked like a shark-like creature from his previous life.

“No, I have to leave quickly. It won’t be good if I lose the food in my mouth.”

Lei Luo did not think much of it and hurriedly flapped his wings to take off.

He hadn’t even reached Level-1, and the only reason he was still alive until now was because of his poison. He had also relied on his awakened bloodline talent to increase his strength recently. However, the time he had was still too short, and he hadn’t adapted to the sea battles. Due to various factors, retreating was the wisest choice.

Although he thought so, the creatures chasing him from the sea clearly did not think so.

There was still some distance between them. The aura of magic surged, and a ball of lightning struck from above Lei Luo. Although it avoided his head, it grazed his tail.

Lei Luo trembled and looked down. His tail was numb and he wouldn’t be able to swing it for a while.

“F*ck, I’m avoiding you because I don’t want any extra trouble.”

Anger instantly rose in his heart. Lei Luo used his two front claws to grab the Golden Lizard, opened his mouth, and chanted the dragon language magic. He cast Light Body Spell on himself and flew high up. Then, he held his breath and waited on the spot.

Before long, a shark covered in lightning appeared.

It stared at Lei Luo as another ball of lightning flew into the sky.

“You’re addicted to fighting! Eat my poisonous breath!”

Lei Luo dodged the lightning and flew to the top of the Thunder Shark’s head, spitting out a poisonous breath.

The impact of the poisonous breath itself was not very strong, but when it entered a living creature’s body, its power would explode beyond imagination. Furthermore, Lei Luo had added many characteristics into it.

“Roar!”

As the poisonous breath entered its body, the Thunder Shark’s blue skin turned green, and there were traces of dark red in its skin.

The green color was from the poison of the Poison Dragon, while the dark red color was the combination of various characteristics.

The characteristics of [Deep Erosion] and [Explosion] were the most outstanding.

Meanwhile, the characteristic [Fire Poison] was suppressed in the sea.

Looking at the struggling Thunder Shark in the sea, Lei Luo’s eyes flashed with pride and joy. He had finally vented his anger!

After admiring the Thunder Shark for a while in midair, he waited for the other creatures in the sea to surround it before flapping his wings and leaving.

The Thunder Shark that had been poisoned by him would not survive long in the sea. It would definitely be devoured by other creatures.

After carrying the Golden Lizard back to the island, Lei Luo directly threw it to the edge of the extinct volcano, relying on the residual heat at the edge to roast it.

Half an hour later, the Golden Lizard’s body was sizzling, and a fragrance had already drifted out.

He turned the Golden Lizard over and roasted the other side until both sides were burnt yellow, crisp, and delicious.

Then, Lei Luo opened his mouth and bit down hard.

A satisfied smile appeared on Lei Luo’s face as he felt the fragrance in his mouth. His eyes narrowed comfortably. Meanwhile, his tail, which had already recovered, could not help but lightly pat the ground.

After enjoying the delicacy, Lei Luo shook his head and began to activate his bloodline talent to extract the characteristics.

If he wanted to enjoy such delicacies again in the future, strength was essential.

Otherwise, he would end up like the Lightning Shark. If he failed to capture his prey, then he would become the prey of others.

As a peak Level-2 magical beast, the Golden Lizard contained a lot of energy. After Lei Luo ate it, he directly advanced to become a Level-1 magical beast. He also extracted two characteristics from the Golden Lizard: [Lightning] and [Second Growth].

There was no need to talk about the first characteristic, [Lightning]. It would be impossible to fuse it with his body or his poison. Meanwhile, the characteristic [Second Growth] could not be added into his body.

The body of a dragon would naturally grow stronger. Thus, adding conflicting characteristics, such as lightning, would affect its growth.

The Second Growth of the body could be either good or bad. This process was uncontrollable.

It was fine as long as he grew naturally. There was no need to add any characteristics.

However, the characteristic [Second Growth] would be pretty good if it was fused with his poison.

As long as there was a trace of poison left, it could grow again. Wouldn’t that give the enemy a huge surprise?

“I’ll choose this growth characteristic.”

After settling his thoughts, he began to integrate the [Second Growth] characteristic into his poison.

Extracting characteristics required time, and the item consumed had to be something that his body could withstand. The fusion did not take too much time, but it mainly relied on the power of his bloodline.

An hour later, the fusion of the characteristics was successful, and his poisonous breath became even more terrifying.

“I’ll find a place to test its power.” Lei Luo’s eyes moved as he looked at the place where he tested his poisonous breath last time. He spat a mouthful of this poisonous breath beside it.

The effects were immediately displayed. Originally, the two sides showed the same results, but with the effects of the [Second Growth] characteristic, the amount of poison increased once again and corroded deeper into the rock. Its power was twice as strong as before.

If he were to face the Golden Lizard again, he would not have to wait for such a long time. Instead, he would be able to kill it in five minutes.

“This is very good. However, the poison can only be used as a means of attack once or twice. If I use it too many times, others will be on guard. Only those magical beasts with low intelligence will be constantly poisoned to death.”

“The Poison Dragon’s bloodline is not well-liked by the entire world. It would be great if I could learn some defensive spell techniques. It would be best if I could conceal a few of my poisonous breath’s characteristics and use them when I need them.”

Looking at this scene, Lei Luo was both happy and worried.

Leaving the island to interact with the outside world was a necessary step. He had to think about it in advance.

He had no parents or elders to teach him, so he could only rely on his inherited memories.

After worrying for a while, Lei Luo lay down to sleep and waited for the inherited memories to be activated..
