Chapter 477
The Final Test
"Great… You have 10 years to complete this mission, but I will now bestow you the two Artifacts I promised." The invisible Tower Master announced.
As she spoke, two orbs of light materialized in front of Vale.
"They are the Creation Ring and Sealing Thread I ntioned to you. You won't imdiately gain the blessings of the Paragons and the Lord of the Secrets, but once you wear one of these, you will feel their presence and be able to communicate with them. However, you cannot activate them within the confines of the Tower. Find a safe place outside to do so…" The Tower Master explained...
"I understand, Tower Master."
The orbs of light transford into the designated items and gently settled into Vale's hands. As he held them, he sensed a surge of lightning energy coursing through his Stormbringer sword, as if it recognized the power emanating from the Creation Ring.
Expressing his gratitude, Vale inquired about the next thing he should do. "Thank you, Tower Master. Am I to leave now?"
The Tower Master seed to be amused by his question and replied. "No, not yet. Although you have accepted the mission I bestowed upon you, you have yet to receive the Tower's ultimate reward—the Golden Treasure Chest."
"Right! "How can I obtain it?" Vale asked in excitent.
"It's simple," responded the Tower Master. "You must withstand the Soul Pressure of the Mystic Soul Tower."
'Soul Pressure? What—'
Before Vale could fully comprehend the challenge she ntioned, the suffocating Soul Pressure of the Tower descended upon him, leaving him breathless and disoriented.
the suffocating Soul Pressure of the Tower descended upon him, leaving him breathless and disoriented.
"Y-you…"
He struggled to maintain his composure, but he quickly circulated the powers of his Perfect Realm Incorruptible Body to resist the overwhelming force.
However, it proved insufficient, as his Strength and Spirit Strands also failed to help under the imnse pressure.
"Urgh! Not good... I'm dying here." Vale's mind raced quickly as he realized that this Tower Master was so ruthless.
'What if I die here?! Who will complete the mission?! Are you so thoughtless?' Vale wanted to reprimand the Tower Master, but he can't even voice out his complaint due to pressure!
Nevertheless, he confronted the harsh reality that the Tower Master was unforgiving. Thoughts of failure and the consequences of his demise plagued him—would I fail to get the Golden Treasure Chest?
As he continued searching for a solution, an idea finally ca up.
Since he lacked proficiency in defending against Soul Attacks, perhaps becoming soone else who could resist Soul Attacks would be a great solution!
That's right! He needed to transform into a form that could withstand such assaults.
Without hesitation, he invoked his Beast Shapeshift Spell, harnessing his Dragon Essence to assu the formidable physique of a dragon.
Similar to his Imp Transformation, it wasn't instantaneous.
As Vale activated the Spell, his transformation comnced. Draconic energy surged through his veins, causing his entire body to convulse with power. His body began to contort and shift, bones cracking and rearranging themselves in a very gnarly thod.
First, sharp fangs sprouted from his elongated jaw, crowding his mouth with rows of razor-edged teeth. His eyes, once human, now glowed with an intense, vivid hue and blue light.
Then, his spine elongated and curved, protruding through his back, as a majestic tail erged, covered in blue scales that shimred like precious gemstones. It didn't take long before the tail swayed gracefully behind him.
Then, Vale's limbs underwent a remarkable tamorphosis, elongating and strengthening as they transford into powerful dragon limbs. His fingers fused together, forming elongated claws tipped with deadly points…
"Rooaar!"
As Vale let out a roar, he felt that the Soul Pressure was getting weaker. However, his transformation wasn't over yet.
As it progressed, Vale's body grew in size and stature. His once human fra expanded, muscles rippling beneath the erging layer of scales that now covered his entire body.
Then, to Vale's surprise, he felt a wing forming as well! It wasn't sothing that the Water Dragon possessed!
Blue wings sprouted from Vale's back, their span stretching over ten ters!
Finally, as the transformation reached its climax, Vale's entire body settled into its new form. He stood before the Tower Master, a fully realized dragon, radiating raw power and commanding presence. Every inch of him exuded a sense of majesty, a testant to the dragon lineage he now embodied.
Rooaar!
A resounding dragon roar reverberated through the room, and Vale imdiately sensed the Soul Pressure had beco barely noticeable in response to his transformation.
The Tower Master, taken aback by the abrupt tamorphosis, fell into stunned silence.
Before her stood a magnificent creature, once a re demihuman, now a dragon of unfathomable strength!
"You're also a Half-Dragon? This doesn't make any sense…" The Tower Master comnted as she observed the huge creature inside her room.
With every movent, the dragon exuded an aura of a genuine dragon race. She could never mistake it. It wasn't so sort of illusion either since she witnessed the terrible transformation that Vale made.
"You can guess, Tower Master..." Vale replied mysteriously with his draconic voice. Well, he used his Voice Manipulation since he felt that it would be inappropriate to still use his human voice.
"It doesn't matter. It was an impressive transformation. It seems you possess more than ets the eye. You have proven your resilience and adaptability… You shall receive the Tower's last reward, the Golden Treasure Chest."
As the Tower Master concluded her words, a radiant chest materialized before the dragon, emanating a golden glow that illuminated the room.
Intricate carvings adorned its surface. They seem to be Rune Arts that he couldn't recognize.
Vale, still in awe of his newfound form, extended a clawed hand towards the Golden Treasure Chest.
With a gentle nudge, the chest opened, revealing a dazzling array of artifacts, each pulsating with their own unique essence.
"The contents of this chest will aid you on your difficult journey. Each artifact holds great power, but it is up to you to unlock their full potential and wield them against the dwellers of the Abyss.
