Chapter 26 – Blood Red ScalesTranslated by:Edited by:TLCed by: OMA

At this moment, the aura which had caused Lingxi to be paralyzed in fear earlier had finally vanished. Lingxi had thought that Long Chen was already fine. But she hadn’t imagined that Long Chen was now in so much agony that he was rolling about on the ground. Feeling shocked and scared, Lingxi hurriedly emerged from the Lingxi sword, and her tiny body twirled around Long Chen.

“Long Chen, Long Chen, what exactly is wrong with you? Don’t scare me……”

While saying these words, her eyes gradually turned red. If she still had any tears left, they would have been flowing out by now.

“My skin, it hurts!”

At this moment, Long Chen felt that every inch of his body had actually been induced with a pain that felt like his heart was wrenching and his organs were rupturing!

Inside his body, that 1/1000th of the Inheritance Blood Essence had actually spread like poison with a flying speed throughout his entire body. His skin’s current behavior was actually due to that bit of blood coming into contact with it.

“Long Chen, your body……has something growing on it!”

Right now, Long Chen was tormented by unimaginable pain, but he could hear Lingxi’s fl.u.s.tered voice. So after hearing Lingxi’s words, he panicked. He abruptly opened his eyes wide and looked at his own arm.

What he saw was his arm that had now turned blood red. His arm was also separated into a neat and tidy pattern made up of countless small areas, each the shape and size of a nail. And in each area, there was actually something growing out of it. Long Chen was appalled to find that these bits of things were actually pieces of scarlet scales!

He momentarily had a huge shock. While enduring the intense pain, he looked down at his own body. As expected, his whole body was now covered with these fine and neat pieces of scales. And at the end of his fingers, toes, kneecaps, and elbows, there were actually bones protruding out; they were scarlet and were shaped like knives. Looking at that sharpness, it looked like it had definitely surpa.s.sed the sharpness of regular swords!

Looking at the knife-like bones that were protruding out, Long Chen was stumped: “Are these……are these f.u.c.king claws? Have I turned into a beast?”

He felt for his back suddenly, and actually found that there was a row of spikes. These blood red spikes could be found all over his body; even his head was surrounded with these intricate scales. His hair had all vanished, and what replaced it was a fierce-looking, crimson spike!

Although Long Chen was not able to see his whole appearance, but judging from his body and his limbs, he was currently in a condition perfect for battle. That scarlet armor of scales had powerful defensive abilities, and those sharp spikes were methods of attack!

“This appearance……and these blood red scales, that is really remarkable to the extremes……”

At this point, Long Chen’s pain had slowly disappeared. It seemed like his transformation had almost been completed, so he looked at his body blankly, feeling joy among the bitterness.

After hearing that, Long Chen could speak properly without restraints. Only then did Lingxi heave a sigh of relief. As she was about to speak, Long Chen suddenly asked: “Xiao Xi, look at my body and tell me, am I cool or not?”

Lingxi looked at him for a while. Long Chen’s look right now was fierce-looking and reeked of blood. But the contours of his body, whether it was the scales or the spikes, would let people feel that it was extremely perfect, and indeed it was handsome. But what use could it have?

“Long Chen, you……Right now, how are you feeling?”

Long Chen observed for a while and said: “I don’t know……But I can feel that I have a very large power, a very strong feeling!”

He was currently experimenting with his strength, and at this point, the 1/1000th Inherited Blood Essence , which was the quintessence of the dragon that had been infused into his whole body. In the end, it continued on and reached the final region, the dantian.

At this moment, Long Chen’s body had been fully reconstructed into a grotesque shape.

Long Chen could even see his every organ, every bone and even every drop of blood. Inside his body there was a blood red Dragon G.o.d shadow that was endlessly moving and roaring!

Every organ and flesh of his were as if they had come to life. His heartbeat had increased by several times, and the blood which had been reconstructed was swallowed alive as it came into contact with the organs and muscles.

Long Chen could not even dream of such an unfathomable scene!

“Why did I turn out like this……What exactly happened to me?”

Long Chen was still muttering to himself. At this point, the expanded Inheritance Blood Essence had already a.s.similated with his Qi of the fifth level of the Dragon Pulse Realm. In an instant, his Qi started transforming steadily, and the original Qi gradually showed hints of a blood red color. As the Qi circulated, the blood red Qi in his dantian started to get more and more concentrated!

This process did not cause him any pain, and Long Chen was astonished to discover that for every 10 portions of his original Qi only one portion of the blood red Qi was produced!

As he witnessed this moment, Long Chen felt a very extreme hunger taking over his body, and his expression had changed into something very unsightly.

Lingxi asked worriedly: “You……how are you feeling now?”

Long Chen could feel her worry from her eyes. He also felt extreme warmth from her.

“I……I feel like I’m very hungry……I can’t take it anymore, so hungry!”

After saying this, Long Chen let out a growl of agony, and both of them had startlingly realised that this growl was that of a dragon’s cry!
