Chapter 278 Swallowing Top-Grade Mother Gold, a Giant Dragon of Rice Metal Emerges!
Inside the treasure vault, the concept of time becomes blurred.
The once mountain of high-grade spirit stones has now mostly disappeared.
The ground was covered with a thick layer of grayish-white stone powder, which was the residue left after the spiritual energy was squeezed out.
The air was filled with a hot, oppressive atmosphere, and the smell of rusting metal.
"The forty-ninth vertebra...repositioned."
Lu Sheng was shirtless, and his once strong muscles now looked somewhat shriveled, with sunken eye sockets, like a refugee who hadn't eaten for three days and three nights.
But his eyes shone like two searchlights, radiating an almost manic focus.
On the open ground in front of him, there were no dazzling spiritual energy effects, only a huge, stark white skeleton exuding a sharp, chilling aura.
It is up to 100 meters long.
Every rib and every finger bone is forcibly compressed, woven, and solidified by high-purity gold-based principles.
This is not a "rule prototype" condensed by a Spirit Source user at all; it is more like the chassis of a killing machine being assembled.
In the distance, Luo Tianfei sat cross-legged beside the heartwood of a paulownia tree, surrounded by purple flames, as elegant as a goddess.
She occasionally opened her eyes and looked at the man who was lying on the ground banging on the ground, her eyes looking at him as if he were a hopeless madman.
"Abandoning the fluidity of spiritual energy in pursuit of ultimate material hardness?"
Luo Tianfei shook her head, a cold smile playing on her lips. "Lu Sheng, you've narrowed your path. No matter how hard the metal is, it's just an inanimate object. Without the rules of spirit, it's just a pile of scrap iron."
She had already refined most of the phoenix tree in her hand, and the phantom of the divine phoenix behind her was becoming more and more agile, even able to emit a clear phoenix cry or two, causing the surrounding fire elements to cheer and jump for joy.
This is the right way.
This is the demeanor a Spirit Master should have.
Lu Sheng ignored her taunts.
He held in his hand the [Taibai Refined Gold Mother], which had been stripped bare, leaving only its core.
This thing is now only the size of an egg, no longer solid, but has turned into a mass of constantly wriggling, boiling silver liquid metal.
The space around it was filled with fine black cracks, as if no container in the world could contain its sharpness.
"The skeleton is complete, but the flesh and blood are still missing."
Lu Sheng licked his chapped lips, his voice hoarse as if he were sanding sandpaper.
Ordinary spiritual energy filling is not enough to support this body.
If you're going to play, play big.
Lu Sheng made a move that nearly scared Luo Tianfei, who was in the distance, into going berserk.
He tilted his head back, pinched the clump of liquid mother metal that could even shred space, and without any hesitation, swallowed it like a raw egg—
Gurgle.
He swallowed it in one gulp!
"Are you courting death?!" Luo Tianfei screamed, her purple protective divine fire almost collapsing.
That's a top-tier gold-type treasure, the mother gold!
Swallowing it is like swallowing a thousand high-speed meat grinders that can instantly turn your internal organs into mincemeat!
"Ugh—!!!"
Lu Sheng's body suddenly arched into a shrimp-like shape.
A terrifying, excruciating pain instantly swept over his entire body.
He could clearly feel the cool sensation explode the moment it entered his throat.
Countless tiny golden rays frantically sliced along the esophagus and stomach wall, attempting to completely dismember this mortal body from the inside.
puff!puff!
Countless blood mists burst open on Lu Sheng's skin, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a blood gourd.
"Suppress them!!"
Lu Sheng roared inwardly, his eyes bloodshot.
On the system panel, the [Dragon God Sequence] was frantically alarming, but driven by Lu Sheng's reckless will, the dragon blood in his body boiled to the extreme, turning into golden shackles that tightly bound the rampaging mother gold.
It's not digestion.
It is guidance.
"Since this is my territory, then I will offer my blood as a sacrifice!"
Lu Sheng suddenly straightened up, his Adam's apple bobbing, and opened his bloodied and mangled mouth to face the cold, hundred-meter-tall skeleton in front of him.
"vomit--!!"
He violently spat out a torrent of dark gold dragon blood mixed with silvery-white mother gold liquid.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle—!
A torrent of scalding metal poured onto the spine, producing a teeth-grinding quenching sound.
A miracle happened at that moment.
Those originally lifeless bones seemed to be endowed with some kind of strange vitality the moment they came into contact with this "special blood".
They began to wriggle and grow.
It's not the growth of flesh and blood, but the proliferation of metal.
Click click click!
Countless fine, golden metal fibers, as thin as hair, burst forth from the gaps in the bones, like greedy pythons, intertwining, coiling, and stretching together.
Those are muscles.
Muscle bundles made of pure metal, possessing extreme toughness and explosive power!
Next comes the fascia, blood vessels, internal organs...
All the organs were rapidly taking shape before Lu Sheng's eyes in a way that defied biology but conformed to mechanical aesthetics.
The entire vault resounded with a dense series of clicking sounds, like a sophisticated arsenal operating at full power.
The giant beast, which was originally just a skeleton, is rapidly growing larger.
Layer upon layer of dark gold dragon scales, like fish scales, snapped together and locked in place, covering the metal muscles seamlessly.
The sharp dragon claws extended, flashing with cold light; their mere weight, hanging naturally, pressed four deep craters into the hard basalt ground.
One minute.
Two minutes.
When the last drop of liquid gold was consumed.
Lu Sheng was panting heavily, his body covered in blood, and he collapsed on the ground.
But he smiled.
They laughed unrestrainedly, their laughter was extremely arrogant.
In front of him.
A five-clawed golden dragon, hundreds of meters long and with a body that is a mixture of dark gold and silver-white, is coiled in the center of the treasure vault.
It's so real.
It's so realistic that you can even see the ancient lines of time on its scales and the movement of its metal eyeballs under its eyelids.
It doesn't breathe, and it doesn't need to breathe.
It is itself a concrete manifestation of the rules of killing.
"Inanimate object?"
Lu Sheng wiped the blood from his face, stood up unsteadily, and turned to look at Luo Tianfei, who was completely stunned in the distance.
"You big dummy bird, open your eyes wide and watch carefully."
Lu Sheng raised his hand and snapped his fingers hard at the huge dragon head.
"wake up."
Om-!
Those tightly closed metallic dragon eyes suddenly snapped open.
hold head high------!!!!
A roar.
The sound was no longer the dragon's roar simulated by spiritual energy as before.
This is the roar of two continental plates squeezing and rubbing against each other in the deep sea! It's the sonic storm generated by tens of thousands of tons of metal vibrating at high speed!
The sound waves, like a tangible hammer, slammed heavily into the enclosed treasure vault space.
Rumble!
The specially made diamond floor instantly cracked into countless fissures, and the luminous pearl on the dome shattered into pieces.
"puff!"
Before Luo Tianfei could even react, she was shaken by the pure physical sound wave, causing her blood to surge and spit out a jet of blood.
The eighteen layers of divine phoenix protective barrier that she was so proud of shattered like paper in the face of this roar, exploding into a sky full of purple sparks.
"What...what kind of monster is this?!"
Luo Tianfei looked up in utter horror, not even bothering to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.
In sight.
The enormous metallic dragon slowly lowered its noble head, and two streams of scorching white steam spewed from its huge nostrils, burning two deep, charred pits into the ground.
Lu Sheng stood beneath the dragon's head.
He was covered in blood, yet he resembled a demon king who had just returned from hell to the human world.
That sense of oppression was not something a Spirit Master should have.
Luo Tianfei originally thought that she was proud enough to have condensed the "Divine Phoenix Phantom" and initially mastered the fire element rules.
But at the moment.
Watching the dragon's claws leave sparks as it clawed at the ground, each movement carrying immense weight, a crack appeared in her proud Dao heart.
She lost.
It was not just a loss in strength, but a complete defeat in terms of ideology.
While she was playing with fire magic, this madwoman created a war machine!
"How is it?"
Lu Sheng patted the cold, hard dragon scales beside him, making a crisp "clang" sound.
He looked at the pale-faced Luo Tianfei, grinned, and revealed a set of gleaming white teeth.
"Is this thing hard enough?"
Luo Tianfei bit her lip hard until she tasted blood.
She wanted to argue that this was simply violence, devoid of any aesthetic appeal.
But the massive metal faucet was staring coldly at her, and the suffocating feeling it gave her made her realize that in the face of absolute quality, any fancy tricks were a joke.
"abnormal……"
After holding it in for a long time, Luo Tianfei finally managed to squeeze out those two words through gritted teeth.
She was truly convinced.
This guy's brain circuits are simply not something a carbon-based organism could grow.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Lu Sheng shrugged, unconcerned.
He did not stop there.
This five-clawed golden dragon.
is the first step.
His gaze fell on the [Earth Core Red Lotus Core] that he had been tightly clutching in his right hand.
"One five-clawed golden dragon isn't enough, is it?"
"We absolutely must create a five-clawed fire dragon!"
