Chapter 343: Ten Thousand Attribute Points (II)

Roar! Cultivate?

The other colossal beasts looked confused.

The Thunder Fiery Emperor Beast was taken aback and growled.

Roar!

The runes I taught you before, don't underestimate their power.

Roar roar! Runes are so difficult.

The Deep Sea Dragon Turtle looked troubled.

Previously, when the Thunder Beast taught it the mouth cannon rune, the Dragon Turtle had tried to condense its energy in its throat, but couldn't succeed even after a day of practice.

Soon after, the Thunder Beast had undergone a super evolution, then used its emperor beast ability to help them break through to level 8. They all slept for several days, and after waking up, they fought a level 9 colossal beast and had just now finished sweeping through the surrounding area.

Compared to the tedious task of condensing runes, the Dragon Turtle preferred fighting or even just lying down to sleep.

The Thunder Beast growled.

Roar!

Even if it's difficult, you have to practice. Colossal beasts at level 8 have king-level bloodlines with powerful abilities. You need to find another way to be stronger than other beasts of the same level.

Roar! The power of runes is your shortcut. A single basic rune isn’t strong, but when you condense and stack dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of them, it becomes incredibly powerful.

Roar! When you condense and inscribe enough runes, you might even form a new ability. So when we return, all of you must cultivate. Don't come out of the Dragon Palace until you've condensed at least twenty basic runes.

Squeak squeak squeak! Work hard to cultivate! Let's gooo!

The Single-horned Kun flapped its fins, its voice full of enthusiasm.

This time, it was the Dragon Turtle's turn to look at it with disdain. When the Kun had been condensing the slashing rune, it was also quietly complaining about how difficult it was and how it wanted to go play with the Little Hu whales.

Or rather, the claim was that it should be relieving some pressure off its mate, Horn Hime, by taking care of their children.

Meanwhile, the Nine-headed Serpent above them roared in excitement.

Roar! roar! roar! Cultivate, I like it.

Immediately, the two creatures looked up together, glaring at the Serpent. It had none of the dignity of a colossal beast at all.

The Silver Colossal Dragon, gliding through the water with its wings spread, growled.

Roar!

Batian is right. Everyone should indeed work hard. I support going into seclusion to cultivate.

The Dragon Turtle and the Kun now had no choice. With both kings of the Dragon Palace in agreement, what could these underlings do?

As the five colossal beasts continued moving, everything avoided them; after a few hours, they reached the Dragon Palace.

Seeing the five colossal beasts with their grand auras approaching from afar, the Blue Giant Crab at the entrance quickly stood up, waving its massive claws.

Gurgle gurgle! Greetings, great king, second king, third king, fourth king, fifth king.

Gurgle gurgle! Your presence is so magnificent and strong, just seeing you from afar makes my six legs go weak...

Roar! Shut up! Always with the weak legs. You're so weak that anyone would think you're a female. No, even if you were female, you shouldn't be weak, so stop talking about your weak legs!

the Thunder Beast roared, interrupting the Blue Crab's flattery.

Otherwise, if this continued, it could go on endlessly repeating that same compliment hundreds of times.

At that moment, the Silver Dragon growled, looking curiously at the Blue Crab.

Roar!

General Crab, why do you only have six legs? All the crabs of your kind that I’ve encountered here had eight.

The Blue Crab bubbled, and respectfully replied.

Gurgle gurgle! When I was young and foolish, I lost them in a fight.

The Thunder Beast was also curious.

Roar!

Aren't crabs supposed to regrow their legs if they get cut off?

The Blue Crab bubbled blankly.

Gurgle gurgle! I don't know either. After I won the fight, I ate the other crab, and then I took a nap and grew bigger, but my legs didn't regrow.

Alright, a problem with evolution.

The five colossal beasts passed through the spatial barrier and entered the micro-world of fire and water. With splashes of water erupting all around, they stepped into the ice crystal palace.

Roar roar roar! Work hard, cultivate, let's go.

The Serpent roared chaotically, its aura high as it swam into its Nine-Headed Dragon Palace. Next was the Silver Dragon, then the Dragon Turtle.

Finally, under the Thunder Beast’s watchful gaze, the Kun flashed a pleasing, naive smile and obediently swam into the Black and White Dragon Palace.

After sending these creatures to cultivate, the Thunder Beast also went to its Fire Sea Dragon Palace—the volcano and lava lake. Compared to being in the water, the Thunder Beast felt more comfortable in hot environments like lava, enough to make it feel like it could conquer everything. However, it wasn't time to unleash its power upon the world yet.

On the edge of the scorching volcanic crater, the Thunder Beast had most of its body immersed in the lava. Its enormous claws carefully retrieved the sharkskin bag from the gap in its neck scales, then poured dozens of crystals onto the ground.

Looking at the small pile containing level 4, level 6, and level 7 Life Crystals, the Thunder Beast showed a ferocious grin.

It had calculated on the way back that these crystals could convert into over 10,000 attribute points, enough to enhance a high-level ability to its peak. However, since it wasn't dark yet and Chen Chu wasn't in a convenient situation, it needed to wait a little longer.

In the suite's living room, Chen Chu checked the time. It was past eight o'clock at night, so he stood up and said, "Miss Yan, I should head back to my room now. You should get some rest soon."

On the sofa, Yan Ruoyi, who was watching a sci-fi idol war movie, nodded and smiled. "You too, Brother Chu."

Back in his room, Chen Chu closed the door and drew the curtains, then moved to the center of the room. After removing his jacket, he extended his right arm and activated his true dragon power.

Buzz!

Accompanied by a golden-red glow, powerful spatial fluctuations began to spread.

When Chen Chu activated the spatial energy, the Thunder Beast on the other side locked onto his coordinates, and a silver vortex slowly emerged from the blazing crown above its head.

The moment Chen Chu opened the spatial passage, Yan Ruoyi turned to look at the living room’s connecting wall, showing a look of surprise.

"What powerful spatial fluctuations. What kind of art is Brother Chu practicing? He's done it twice now."

Thanks to the dragon, Yan Ruoyi’s senses were quite sharp, especially when it came to high-level powers like spatial energy. However, since she had seen Chen Chu inscribing spatial runes on his arm before, she didn't think much of it and assumed he was practicing that special secret art again.

Pew! Pew! Pew!

A series of Life Crystals made their way through the spatial passage and were quickly caught by Chen Chu.

After the last crystal was on the other side of the passage, the Thunder Beast quickly closed the passage and sagged with light pants.

"Whew!" Chen Chu exhaled, took a brief rest, and excitedly picked up a level 6 Life Crystal.

“Convert attribute points.”

“You have converted a high-purity Life Crystal and gained 315 attribute points.”

“You have converted a high-purity Life Crystal and gained 1,023 attribute points...”

As each crystal turned into powder and dissipated, the translucent page in front of Chen Chu's view displayed attribute points that surged wildly—5,000, 7,000, 10,000...

It finally stopped at 11,320. Chen Chu's face broke into a smile, satisfied that the efforts of the Thunder Beast and the Dragon Palace hadn’t been in vain.

This was the advantage of having a powerful force. Although the Kun and Dragon Turtle weren’t much help in high-level battles, they were very useful for these time-consuming tasks.

If the Thunder Beast had done it alone, it would have taken at least a month to collect this many crystals. After all, the ocean was vast, and just finding a suitable target was already a hassle.

Now, with enough attribute points, the next step was enhancement. As he looked at the page, Chen Chu's gaze fell on the Thunder Beast’s Thunderbolt, Golden Flames, and Agility abilities and pondered.

Which should he enhance first...?
