Chapter 417 Dragon Transformation Organ (43, please vote for the first month of the month~)

Ian listened carefully.

Although Elder Manya's speculation was not correct, to a certain extent it was true.

Ian's own physical talent is not actually outstanding. At first, he was much weaker than his peers from ordinary wealthy businessman families who could eat meat.

His teacher Hilliard's natural physical fitness was several times that of ordinary people. As long as the old knight practiced training when he was young, he was much faster than ordinary people. He even had the third level of strength in his twenties.

After swearing allegiance to the late emperor and becoming his knight, he immediately advanced to the fourth level with the support of royal resources, and became the fifth level before the age of forty.

This is the real genius. There are no cheats, no knowledge and skills that are beyond the times, and no shortcuts are taken. It is purely based on talent that he has achieved such incredible speed and progress.

If Ian hadn't been practicing breathing guidance techniques since he was eight years old, condensing source seeds, and accumulating source essence to improve his physical quality, his body would actually be that of a frail boy on the outside, worse than the average person.

Of course, his spiritual power allows him to have more experience in advancing to the third level, and the ancient dragon core also brings him better physical fitness, subtly changing his physique... but this is all Acquired changes.

However, what Elder Manya said is right... When he is forced to expose part of the abilities related to the ancient dragon's heart core in the future, he can use Elder Manya's words to push it to the dragon's blood.

Under the narration of the mountain elders, Ian roughly understood the true purpose of the Dragon Worship Cult.

No matter how lofty the Ancient Dragon True Dragon is, as if it is superior to all other life forms, and can be equal to the ecology of the entire human society just by relying on its own power, its source is still a powerful magical beast.

The power of monsters will naturally become human potions and the power of human sublimators.

Of course, the power of dragons is not easy to pass on. Before humans took control of the maze and converted it into a monster breeding area, the inheritance of the ancient dragon was extremely easy to cut off. The lack of relevant materials and the lack of suitable successors were the reasons why it was lost. .

Many people believe that the inheritance of the ancient dragon is a curse. It can make the family and the country prosper for a while, but in the end it can only usher in extinction.

But it's not.

"The blood of the ancient dragon is different from all other magical beasts. It is perfectly integrated into the blood of everyone who has ever owned it. It is just waiting for a suitable opportunity and a suitable object."

"Then, awaken and lead it on the ancient path."

Elder Manya raised his head and stared at the ceiling of the sacrificial room.

This is the purpose of the Dragon Worship Cult - they do not worship a real dragon, but yearn for the power flowing in their own blood...themselves!

Yes, they themselves are the awakened ones of the dragon power that they yearn for, and they are also the talented ones who are qualified to withstand the power of the ancient dragon.

They want to transform into ancient dragons, possessing the power of those giant beasts of the past that could change the world, destroy and create everything.

Even go one step further... to explore the source of the ancient dragon's birth!

Whether they are people with dragon blood, real dragon beasts, or real dragons that have not grown enough, they are all potential members of the Dragon Worship Cult.

Even people who do not have dragon blood join in because they desire the power of the ancient dragon, intending to obtain the secret of dragon blood. And the number of such people is the largest group. Most of the members of the Dragon Worship Cult are these humans who yearn for the power of dragons, and they are divided into several parts, fighting openly and secretly.

There are not so many disputes among real dragon blood holders - their purposes are different, but in a sense, it is the blood that connects them, so the atmosphere among dragon blood holders is extremely relaxed, almost family.

——Anyway, dragon bloods are mutually exclusive. They have different growth methods and approaches, and even ecological niches. If they are not friends and family, is it possible that they can also be enemies?

In the final analysis, if there are no interests, there will be no disputes.

But Anfa's relationship with Xiou and Elder Manya is obviously more than that. They have other relationships besides that, so they can be so close.

Of course, in addition to the Dragon Worship Cult, those who possess dragon blood are also the targets that all countries strive to strive for.

But it's okay to be a noble or a member of the ascendant force.

If you are an ordinary person, awakening the dragon's blood may not be a good thing.

Not to mention anything else, the Academy of Spiritual Knowledge and the Academy of Truth are doing their best to collect dragon blood holders throughout the empire... and their purpose needs no further explanation. You can understand it.

"In recent years, the Lingzhiyuan in Nanling has been unexpectedly active. Perhaps it is because of the oppression of Feiyan Land that the laws of the southwest cannot restrain them."

Elder Manya was half alarmist, half warning: "Others may not care, but the Academy of Spiritual Knowledge and the Academy of Truth must not let you know your identity as a dragon blood holder... Before you reach the second level, Absolutely not, otherwise the consequences may be very tragic.”

"I understand."

Ian nodded seriously, making the old mountain man nod with satisfaction: "That's roughly it. We won't force you to join - I am the only dragon blood holder in the entire South Ridge, and I am already old. I really The core of our religion is actually Xiou’s mother…or perhaps his father.”

"The Commander of the Deep Mountains of Baisen, the King of the Mountains."

Having said this, the old man slightly raised his hand to salute the mountains on the west side, then turned back and continued to talk to Ian: "Having said that, I still hope you can join."

"Because as time goes by, you will understand that only the Dragon Worship Cult can conveniently provide you with research and information related to dragon blood."

"The Empire can indeed do it, but we don't have only one identity, right? I am the elder of the Avod Tribe, which does not prevent me from being a member of the Dragon Worship Cult. You can also be a knight and alchemist of the Empire. It does not prevent you from having another identity, and these two identities can bring you more convenience."

"Yeah." Ian nodded vaguely, but that was actually his purpose.

No matter what, because of the core of the ancient dragon, he had to master this knowledge as much as possible... The formal channels were too slow, so only the Dragon Worship Cult could meet his needs.

"correct."

Having said this, Elder Manya seemed to remember something. He raised his hand, lifted his hair, and showed Ian his steel dragon horns hidden under his messy silver hair: "Every dragon blood holder, There are related 'dragon transformation' mutations, and different dragon transformations represent how much dragon blood you have inherited."

"Ian, where is your dragon transformation?"

The old man looked at the young man expectantly.

Ian thought for a moment and raised his left hand.

He restrained the power of the ether crystal, took off his long gauntlet, and showed the old man his crystallized left hand, covered with cyan crystal lines: "Look."

"This is where I become a dragon."
