AST 1718 - Form Transformation of the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant, Metamorphosis

This made Qing Shui over the moon. All in all, Qing Shui was in need of strong and powerful assistants at the moment. He felt the subtle changes in the situation after the incidents lately. He even felt helpless and less capable than he desired.

Long ago, Qing Shui had once relied on his demonic beasts. Despite the weaker strength of demonic beasts compared to his in the later days, they were still fundamental. Basically, other demonic beasts had less scope for abilities at present, except for the Dragon Slaying Beast.

Due to that, Qing Shui justified that the demonic beasts’ strength didn’t grow at a slow rate, but his own strength spiked too rapidly. Hence, the demonic beasts weren’t put to good use.

Though the Nine-Headed Demonic Dragon Spider and Hellfire Phoenix had undergone form transformation, they were far behind the Hell Tigon. Thus, they weren’t as useful.

The few demonic beasts had changed massively after using the Constitution Nurturing Pills. They had been improving constantly previously but the current strength gain was substantially stronger.

The Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant had the greatest transformation.

The Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant, which Qing Shui had concerned about, underwent an incredible transformation. It was a ferocious, sturdy and big guy now. It could go through form transformation just like the Hellfire Phoenix.

Watching this 2.5 meters tall giant, its physique was comparable to Master Fattie. Still, it appeared to be more robust and dauntless. Qing Shui lost his words as he sensed its strength.

Metamorphosis. It was a real metamorphosis with Form Transformation.

The Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant achieved the raw strength of 30,000 Yang, after experiencing continuous improvement.

Dragon Elephant Force, Passive Skill. A permanent increase of 500-fold raw strength!

Transformed. It had finally transformed! Such a surreal transformation, Qing Shui couldn’t believe it.

He resumed to further observe it after being stunned for some moments. It was too abrupt and hardly acceptable for him. He was largely struck with astonishment as the advance span this time was incredibly huge, in contrast to the usual gradual growth in strength.

Mighty Dragon Elephant’s Recklessness: 50 times of a basic attack, maximum of 50 targets.

The number of targets remained the same, yet the attacking force had increased a lot. This was a great breakthrough.

Mighty Dragon Elephant Stomp, Grand Perfection Stage: 100 times the raw attacking force, potentially freezing multiple targets in the surrounding.

The formidable power had been upgraded. However, power itself was not significant. It was more important to make the opponents dizzy. Thus, it wasn’t prominent whether it was the former 50-times raw strength or the current 100-times raw strength.

Instantaneous Diamond Evasion: Instant leap within 5,000 meters!

Diamond Sword Qi: Instant attack with a jet of Core Qi. Powerful damage and halves the speed of the target. Lasts up to 2 hours.

Vajra Subdues Demons: Reduces multiple targets’ strengths by one-tenth within a 1,000 meters circumference. Maximum of 200 targets. Lasts up to 2 hours.

This skill should be applicable, after the recent boost in Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant’s strength. It should be able to stand its place in a fight now.

Ferocious Dragon Elephant Attack: Instant activation of 200-times the current strength for a single-target attack.

This attack was also upgraded by a lot. This was apparently linked to the Dragon Elephant Force and could be limited by the Dragon Elephant Force.

Dark Infernal Flames: The Dark Infernal Flames below the feet enables 30% Armor Penetration effect in Dragon Elephant’s attack. Simultaneously increases the speed of Dragon Elephant in the air by ten times.

Dragon Scale Armor: Passive skill, 20-times increase in defense and attack. A strong body and attack were the greatest foundation of the Dragon Elephant.

This skill greatly improved the defense and attack of the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant. It was the Innate Skills of Heaven and Earth Battle Beast.

Dragon Elephant Might: Absolute oppression against animals except for beasts and dragons. At least a reduction in 10% strength. Optimally makes the opponent lose its battle strength, lack absolute oppression in the others. Zero consumption. Passive skill.

Demonic Dragon Heart: The powerful Dragon Elephant can improve four times its own strength by itself, resisting most of the negative effects.

Qing Shui was contented even after knowing the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant didn’t gain any extra abilities. Under the effect of the magic treasure Heaven Shaking Drum, the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant had already attained nearly 7,000 Dao. Plus, it had the ability to reduce 10% total strength, reduce speed, and neglect 30% armor force. That was incredible. It was capable of group killing, focused killing, controlling, and great escaping skills. It was applicable in all kinds of noxious battle environments.

It took a long while before Qing Shui came back to awareness. The Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant didn’t grow much on its own. Qing Shui spent some time in refinement and that brought rapid growth in his strength. At present, the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant improved almost 20,000 in strength. That rewarded Qing Shui with a 4.000 Yang increment, though that wasn’t much of a contribution to Qing Shui’s 200,000 Yang strength.

The Nine Yang Dragon Soul’s influence contributed to the total strength of more than 22,000 Dao. Once he refined these 4,000 Yang, he would gain even more. Even so, Qing Shui wasn’t in a hurry.

“Master!” Greeted the big guy to Qing Shui, in a straightforward way.

Qing Shui smiled, “There’s no master here. We’re a family so just call me Qing Shui.”

“I’d call you boss then!” The big guy replied, since that was how the Hellfire Phoenix had addressed him.

“Fine. What are you called?” Qing Shui asked with a smile. He felt the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant look simple and steady after transforming into a big guy.

“I’m Dragon Elephant!”

Qing Shui rubbed his forehead, thinking that their names were too simple. The Hellfire Phoenix was Dark Phoenix. Nine-Headed Demonic Dragon Spider was Dragon Spider. And now, the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant was Dragon Elephant.

At the very least, their names were easy to remember.

Qing Shui stared at the huge and tall body of the Dragon Elephant. He had to raise his head. He kind of liked its physique and dreamt of having such sturdy physique too. It was good to be strong as a man.

Looking at his own height, there was a huge discrepancy from the Dragon Elephant’s. The height of 1.8 meters was tall enough in past life and even the present. However, there were many big guys in this world, especially the giants, who had the similar height as the Dragon Elephant for the shortest one. Also, there was the Beast Blood Tribe who were far taller and bigger than Qing Shui.

Fortunately, there was no direct association between strength and body size. There were many ordinary men in the Main Continent and most of them were like himself. It was merely a thought, but it must be really depressing to have such a gigantic body like the Dragon Elephant.

Next time, the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant could battle together. Thinking of the scenario, Qing Shui was excited.
