Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 894, Black Heart

Everyone flew suspended in mid-air. Below, they could see a pool of black water, still as a gemstone, profoundly dark.

Even with Jin Zhan’s Golden Crow illuminating this place, all light was completely absorbed by the black water without any reflection.

It seemed this black water was a black hole, capable of absorbing everything.

In such a place, even with the bright light emanating from the Golden Crow’s body, one still felt extremely oppressed.

Lu Fan and Jin Zhan were relatively fine. Both were at High Levels and had witnessed many grand spectacles before, so they could calmly handle everything before them.

However, Andrei could not do the same. Although he had no Debuffs on him, he felt extremely uncomfortable throughout. His body trembled involuntarily, and sweat continuously seeped out, quickly soaking his clothes.

“This place… is where the Ancient God resides? Why do I feel so uncomfortable…” Andrei could not help saying.

He felt like a small white rabbit with a fierce tiger eyeing him hungrily from behind. Although the tiger hadn’t done anything, and he could not even sense its presence, his instincts were frantically screaming at him that this was too dangerous, making him want to only escape.

Unfortunately, this was a sealed space with nowhere to flee.

Having left the Divine Bone Clone’s back, with only that bizarre black water below, there was not even a place to stand.

If Lu Fan and Jin Zhan were not here, giving him a bit of security, he felt he might truly go mad.

Jin Zhan spoke, giving him some confidence. “It’s not just you. I also feel very uncomfortable. It seems like there really is an Ancient God here, no mistake.”

“I’ve never had close contact with an Ancient God before, but something capable of giving me this kind of pressure might only be an Ancient God.” With that, Jin Zhan looked at Lu Fan, somewhat puzzled. “This is the Ancient God’s hiding place, right?”

Lu Fan nodded.

Jin Zhan pointed at Andrei. “If so, why did you bring him in too? His Level is too low and he has no means to protect himself. If he gets too close to the Ancient God, just the aftermath of the battle could easily kill him, you know?”

Hearing this, Andrei’s face paled even more. If possible, on this trip he only wanted to be a guide, not cannon fodder.

Lu Fan smiled slightly. “You’re not wrong about that. But we couldn’t leave him outside either, could we? Although this is one hundred thousand metres underground, the fighting against an Ancient God could very likely cause the entire Dark Land to collapse. At that time, he would equally be unable to escape death outside. Moreover, even if the aftermath of the battle doesn’t reach him, the Level 120 Monsters outside aren’t something he can handle either. So, rather than separating from us, it’s safer to keep him by our side.”

Jin Zhan frowned. “But keeping him beside us, if we start fighting…”

“No problem,” Lu Fan waved his hand. “I have a way to protect him.”

With that, Lu Fan slapped Andrei’s back. Immediately, Andrei’s form seemed absorbed by something, transforming into a vortex shape and disappearing into Lu Fan’s palm.

In Lu Fan’s palm was clearly an inconspicuous Abyssal Node.

He had pulled Andrei into his Abyssal Space. This way, as long as Lu Fan did not die, he could guarantee Andrei’s safety.

Jin Zhan had been pulled into Lu Fan’s Abyssal Space before, so he had some understanding of Lu Fan’s Ancient God Power.

Seeing this scene, he immediately understood. From the very beginning, Lu Fan had already thought of a countermeasure. He had been the one overthinking things.

He smiled apologetically, then said. “If that’s the case, let’s find this Ancient God and drag it out.”

Lu Fan also nodded. He originally wanted to use spiritual threads to continue extending them out here, finding the Darkness Ancient God and dragging it out.

But he reconsidered. He had already arrived, so why bother using spiritual threads?

He directly opened his mouth. A phantom manifestation appeared above his head. Naturally, this was the Skill, Roar of the Blue Dragon King.

The a Dragon-like figure materialised and condensed above Lu Fan’s head, releasing a Dragon Breath downward.

In an instant, ten thousand thunderbolts fell like a waterfall, thunderously crashing into the black water below.

For a moment, the black water churned continuously, boiling as if in a pot, being frantically stirred.

“Human, you’ve angered me!” A roar on the spiritual level simultaneously exploded in Lu Fan and Jin Zhan’s minds.

Subsequently, the black water seemed imbued with some spell, completely absorbing the ten thousand thunderbolts, allowing this place to regain its calm.

However, the black water’s boiling did not disappear. Rather, it became even more intense.

Then from the water, an enormously gigantic black heart slowly floated up.

This black heart stood a full ten metres tall, constantly beating. Each beat sent out visible ripples, causing the black water to create corresponding frequency ripples.

The ripples passed over Lu Fan and Jin Zhan. Lu Fan was fine, but Jin Zhan’s expression had already become somewhat unpleasant.

He sensed these ripples actually weakened his Attributes by a full thirty percent!

He possessed Debuff Removal Skills, but after using this Skill, it had no effect whatsoever.

Clearly, in terms of Mechanics, the opponent’s Skill had Mechanics far higher than his own.

When this black heart completely emerged from the water’s surface, Lu Fan smiled and addressed it. “Why aren’t you playing dead anymore? When I used my spiritual threads to find your location, you’d already detected my arrival. Did you think that by staying completely still and playing dead, I’d be fooled into giving up and not finding you? Did you think you even had a chance to escape this upcoming disaster?”

The black heart fell silent for a moment.

Just now, it had indeed underestimated Lu Fan.

There was no helping it though. The Darkness Ancient God knew its degree of awakening was too low. Encountering other Ancient Gods, it would most likely mean being unable to escape death.

Therefore, when another Ancient God’s spiritual threads swept past, its first reaction was to make itself sink as dormant as possible, hoping not to be dragged out.

Obviously, this was quite a childish idea. The opponent could not possibly fail to find it.

However, now that it saw the arrivals were not extremely highly awakened Ancient Gods but two Humans, it was not as nervous as before.

“I thought it would be an Ancient God with an extremely high degree of awakening, already able to freely walk the world. I did not expect it to be two Humans from the new era.”

“The aura on your body. Is it the Ancient God Power of the Abyssal Ancient God? I didn’t expect that before the new era’s Ancient Gods Struggle For Supremacy even began, an Ancient God’s Divine Seat had already been seized…”
