The Natural Empire of the Oceanic Dragon

#3 - Tiger Man's Determination

After awakening the Life Water talent spell, Artie had already recognized the Bearman as his master. Even though he was a fledgling dragon, the magic resistance of a true dragon determined that natural divine spells that could affect him, and the druids who cast them, were not simple characters.

"Master, what are we going to do next?"

"Next, you will move into the forest and live with us. Druids also need to persevere in their cultivation every day to make progress. The process will be very hard, unlike true dragons who only need to hunt and sleep to naturally increase their power."

"Can you persevere?"

Because of the powerful strength brought by their bloodline, many true dragons are very arrogant and lazy, but Artie is different. He transmigrated, and is very different from the native true dragons.

"Don't worry, Master, for nature, for the Druids, I will definitely work hard!"

Shouting slogans loudly is useless; Druids only look at practical actions.

"Go back to your dragon's nest and pack your things, then come back with me, and then we will start your first lesson."

After packing his only few small pearls, Artie followed the Bearman Druid, who had transformed into a giant bear, to the center of the forest, at the foot of an oak tree that was over a hundred meters tall.

The Bearman lived in a tree hole woven from gaps between tree roots and vines.

Changing back to his Bearman form, the Bearman went to his room and took a package wrapped in leaves and handed it to Artie.

Artie thought it was some kind of magical tool, but when he opened it, it was just a package of oak seeds.

"Master, you gave me seeds, you don't want me to plant trees, do you?"

The Bearman nodded and said:

"The power of the Druid comes from nature. Planting trees is a very important practice. Remember to make good use of your Life Water talent spells, and carefully sense the changes in the natural energy in that land before and after the seeds are planted."

When the seeds break through the soil, Artie's connection with nature will deepen. Druids communicate with nature through meditation and various behaviors that maintain the balance of nature to obtain natural energy, thereby mastering the ability to release various natural divine spells.

It was difficult to disobey his master's orders, so Artie could only honestly hang the seeds around his neck.

"Then Master, am I going to plant trees now?"

"Go to the south and plant the seeds in a place you think is suitable. Remember where each seed is planted. After that, you will also need to observe their changes every day."

"Understood."

Artie sighed. He knew that things would not be so simple. The life of eating and sleeping was about to leave him, even though he had only lived such a life for one day.

"Come back to me after all the seeds are planted. Take this leaf with you, and the forest will help you to a limited extent."

The green leaf had a Druid's magic mark on it at first glance. Artie clipped the leaf between his scales, confirmed the direction of the south, and prepared to take off.

Suddenly, he heard a burst of angry roars. When he turned his head, a foot kicked him in the face, followed by a rain of fists, leaving him in a state of intense dizziness.

Damn it, it's that Tigerman!

Fortunately, the Bearman acted in time, using vines to wrap around the Tigerman's arm and pull her away, otherwise Artie's dragon head would have turned into a pig's head. This Tigerman's strength is really great!

"Stop, as a monk, you must always maintain inner peace. Now go back to meditate and adjust your breathing, and control the hatred in your heart!"

Through this beating, Artie recognized the reality. He was no match for the Tigerman at all. Yesterday, if he hadn't used Dragon Breath to attack first, and then used Dragon Roar to shock the Tigerman and the Goatman, he might have been killed by them.

Sure enough, the most important thing for a dragon is caution!

Now, being beaten by the Tigerman is because his strength is not enough, so he was ambushed by the Tigerman.

The ambusher is always ambushed. This Tigerman is from the Shadow Sect!

The Bearman's palm emitted a green light. Shaking his head, Artie looked at the Bearman curiously.

"Master, you also teach monks?"

The Bearman smiled and released the vines wrapped around the Tigerman.

"When you are old enough and have experienced enough things, you will find that many things are not as difficult as you think. You are a dragon, and you will understand this the most in the future."

Although he was ambushed by the cat-step, Artie still looked at the Tigerman stubbornly.

"If I hadn't just been born two days ago, you wouldn't be my opponent at all! When I grow to your current age, let's have another fight and see who will beg for mercy!"

The Tigerman just looked at him coldly and said firmly:

"Even if I give you fifteen years, I will still win the next fight! At that time, I will definitely have become a legendary monk, and it will be easy to defeat a juvenile ocean dragon!"

"If I hadn't used the stun punch just now, you wouldn't have had the chance to talk big."

After speaking, the Tigerman respectfully saluted the Bearman.

"Master, I'm going back to practice."

So you came here just to beat me up, right? Although it didn't break the skin, it still hurts!

I, Artie, will remember this grudge!

"Don't argue with Tyre. Everyone in her family was killed by an evil green dragon, and you happen to be a bit like a green dragon, both in appearance and in your penchant for sneak attacks."

"She also controlled her temper and didn't hurt you. When your Druid realm improves, you can also fight back. Master supports you. Take this acorn and eat it."

"The meat was stolen by the Goatman. When he comes back, I will ask him to apologize to you."

Artie ate the green acorn in one bite, feeling the rich vitality nourishing his body, but the Bearman felt a little heartache. In order to compensate the little dragon, he really lost too much.

Tsk tsk, the whole family was killed. This Tigerman sounds like a protagonist template, but if your family was killed by a green dragon, you should go and fight the green dragon. Don't take it out on me just because you can't beat the green dragon!

Is there something wrong with me liking to sneak attack? It's really a watt-less brain!

"Tyre was lucky enough to escape, but even I am not necessarily a match for an adult green dragon, so Tyre hopes to become a legendary monk and kill that green dragon."

Artie remembered that the challenge level of an adult green dragon was 13, the Bearman's challenge level was 5, and the Tigerman's was 4. To defeat an adult green dragon, becoming a legendary monk was a necessary prerequisite.

And it's best if the master and apprentice go together, so that they can ensure victory.

As for whether they can kill the green dragon, it depends on whether they are lucky enough and whether the green dragon is stupid enough.

Artie asked curiously:

"Master, how far is this old female tiger from becoming a legendary monk?"

The Bearman looked deeply at the towering oak tree.

"If she cannot abandon the hatred in her heart and the accumulated baleful aura, I think it will be difficult for her to break through to the legendary realm. You can be considered fellow disciples, so you should try to resolve the baleful aura in her heart."

"Ah? Me!"

The Bearman patted Artie on the shoulder.

"Believe in yourself, you will have a way to resolve the baleful aura in her heart."

Artie really wanted to slap himself in the face. Why did he have to be so nosy and ask about the Tigerman's situation? Now it's good, he's gotten into trouble!

"Master, I'm just a mere Druid apprentice, not a priest. I don't think I can help her. I can't do things that are thankless."

The Bearman stared at Artie with a kind smile, bringing him a strong pressure.

"Druids are the agents of nature, and the Tigerman is a part of nature. As my apprentice, how can you say that you can't do it? Try to do it, this is also a rare practice."

"If you do well, Master will not be stingy with rewards. Master has high hopes for you, you can definitely do it!"

After speaking, the Bearman patted him on the shoulder again.

Since there were rewards, Artie would naturally go. It would be good to get the old man to drop more gold coins for him. Resolving the baleful aura would give him a reason to beat the Tigerman a few more times.

The Life Water spells brought by the awakening ceremony alone had benefited him endlessly. If he could learn more unique spells from the old man, he would be able to build his own empire faster.

Carrying the oak seeds, he flew south. On the way, he passed through a centaur tribe. The centaurs were all drawing their bows and aiming at Artie, but the oak leaf clipped in his scales emitted a faint light, and the centaurs put down their bows under the call of the horse king.

Finally, flying over the forest, he arrived at the wilderness. As soon as he entered the wilderness, Artie keenly felt the subtle changes in the power of nature. He instantly understood that by planting trees, he might really be able to learn something.

Using his claws to dig a hole and put in an oak seed, Artie used the last Life Water of the day.

At this stage, he can only use it three times a day. Later, as he grows, the number of times he can release it will also increase. When he becomes a Druid, he can also use the Druid's spell slots to release Life Water.

When the emerald green water flowed into the oak seed buried in the earth, the vitality of the emerging bud brought Artie into a mysterious realm.

He felt the divine power of nature!
