Chapter 175: Pseudo Dragon Might, Dragon Breath (First update, requesting all support as usual)

The moment the Flamingo saw the Red Dragon Essence Blood in Li Zhangsheng's hand, its eyes could not look away; its gaze was filled with undisguised longing.

For the Flamingo, the Red Dragon Essence Blood undoubtedly held the ultimate temptation.

The Flamingo had just reached the Mid-level 9th Rank, and it was possible for it to use the Red Dragon Essence Blood to break through its realm and become the second High-Rank Beast in Li Zhangsheng's possession.

"Flamingo, this is Red Dragon Essence Blood. After consuming it, you can undergo Dragon Vein Body Tempering. It might even contain some of the Red Dragon's inheritance, which will definitely be of great help to you! Take it, it's yours!"

Without hesitation, Li Zhangsheng opened the Glazed Bottle, and the aura of the Red Dragon grew increasingly rich; one could even faintly hear the roar of a Red Dragon.

Chirp~

The Flamingo's excited cry rang out. It took the initiative to nudge its head toward Li Zhangsheng, allowing him to stroke it a few times, unable to hide the excitement in its heart.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng activated his Mental Power, and the Red Dragon Essence Blood in the Glazed Bottle floated up. Under his precise control, it turned into a stream of blood and fell toward the Flamingo's open Bird Beak.

The Flamingo raised its neck and swallowed all the Red Dragon Essence Blood into its stomach, not wasting a single drop.

The next moment, the Flamingo's expression changed. As if a golden mountain had collapsed and a jade pillar had toppled, its body fell to the ground, its eyes filled with intense pain; it was clear that the process of Dragon Vein Body Tempering was extremely painful.

At the same time, the Flamingo began to emit a scorching aura, and Li Zhangsheng even smelled a scent of sulfur.

Within a few breaths, rich crimson flames emerged, enveloping the Flamingo in a blaze.

Soon, the flames stopped spreading, having incinerated the surrounding ten-plus square meters of grass, which made Kailan's heart ache.

Li Zhangsheng retreated a distance, his gaze fixed tightly on the raging flames; if the Flamingo had an accident, he would immediately step in to stop it.

During the wait, time slowly passed. During this period, the flames began to change; their color did not change in the slightest, but the temperature they emitted became increasingly scorching, forcing Li Zhangsheng to retreat another distance.

After rising to a certain level, the temperature stopped increasing, but the heat emitted was already at an appalling level, giving the feeling of a volcano about to erupt.

It was clear that during the Dragon Vein Body Tempering, the Flamingo's flames seemed to have undergone some changes; the temperature was significantly hotter than before, undoubtedly possessing greater destructive power.

Soon, the flames slowly disappeared, revealing the Flamingo's figure.

Compared to before, the Flamingo's body length and wingspan had not changed much, but it felt much stronger. Its fiery red feathers had become smooth and bright, and a large number of fine red Dragon Scales had grown on its abdomen and neck, which undoubtedly greatly enhanced its defense.

Seeing the Flamingo's changes, the heart Li Zhangsheng had been holding finally settled; this almost meant that the Flamingo had completed the process of Dragon Vein Body Tempering.

However, its eyes remained tightly closed, with no sign of waking up.

In the Flamingo's Consciousness Sea, there was faintly an extra illusory red dragon shadow, and this phantom seemed to have no consciousness.

The Flamingo's consciousness cautiously approached the red dragon shadow. During this process, the dragon shadow remained motionless, showing no signs of movement. The Flamingo's courage immediately grew, and it subconsciously pecked at the red dragon shadow.

In an instant, a small piece of "flesh and blood" was pecked off the red dragon shadow by the Flamingo. Before the Flamingo could react, this small piece of "flesh and blood" immediately merged into the Flamingo's consciousness.

The Flamingo only felt its head swell, as if something had been added, yet it could not feel what it was.

Under these circumstances, the Flamingo pecked at the red dragon shadow again. It is unknown how much time passed, but the red dragon shadow disappeared, and its "flesh and blood" had been completely devoured by the Flamingo.

Only then did the Flamingo feel as if it had been enlightened; a mysterious inheritance surged crazily into its mind, making its head ache.

Chirp~

Suddenly, the Flamingo's high-pitched cry rang out. Its bright, piercing eyes seemed to carry their own might, and countless flames rose, rendering it like a Fire Bird. Immediately after, a Pressure surged out, enveloping a radius of several dozen meters.

Feeling the intensity of this Pressure, Li Zhangsheng was surprised, because the Pressure of an ordinary High-Rank Beast clearly could not reach this level, yet it still had a significant gap compared to Aixi's Pressure.

"Dragon Might? No, it should be Pseudo Dragon Might! If the Flamingo absorbs more Red Dragon Essence Blood, perhaps it could be no less than Aixi's Dragon Might!"

Li Zhangsheng could not help but show a satisfied smile. This was only after absorbing a few taels of Red Dragon Essence Blood; if it absorbed the essence blood of an entire Red Dragon, it might obtain pure Dragon Might, which was equivalent to a powerful trait.

Even so, the Pseudo Dragon Might possessed some effects, such as having a certain probability of scaring away weak wild Spirit Beasts or preventing them from exerting their full strength.

Suddenly, the Flamingo opened its Bird Beak, its stomach caved in slightly, and it spat a stream of extremely scorching Flame Pillar toward the sky.

Compared to its Flame Pillar skill, this stream of Flame Pillar was clearly thicker, hotter, and more powerful, and it had certain differences from an ordinary Flame Pillar.

"Could this be Dragon Breath?" It would be a lie to say Li Zhangsheng was not surprised, but the facts told him that the Flamingo seemed to have truly mastered Dragon Breath.

Dragon Breath, full name Great Dragon Breath, is also an innate talent of Great Dragons, possessing immense power. Most importantly, unlike ordinary skills, Dragon Breath does not have a cooldown time; as long as the energy is sufficient, one can completely turn into a turret.

"Flamingo, use it again!" To confirm whether this was truly Dragon Breath, Li Zhangsheng issued an order.

Without hesitation, the Flamingo's stomach caved in slightly, and it again spat a scorching Flame Pillar toward the sky.

"Dragon Breath, it is indeed Dragon Breath!" Li Zhangsheng was clearly excited and hurriedly checked the Flamingo's data.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Flamingo (Growth Stage)

【Spirit Beast Realm】: High-Rank 1st Stage

【Spirit Beast Race】: High-level War General

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Superior Quality

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: Phoenix (Sparse)

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Fire Element

【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: Water

Equipped Treasure: Fire Bird Feather (Intermediate Fire Element Treasure)

There was no Red Dragon Bloodline; this was the most normal thing. Firstly, the Phoenix Bloodline was of a higher grade, and secondly, the quantity of Red Dragon Essence Blood was too small.

This time, absorbing the Red Dragon Essence Blood allowed the Flamingo's strength to increase significantly. Not only did it gain Pseudo Dragon Might and Dragon Breath, but it also completed a breakthrough in one fell swoop, becoming the second High-Rank Beast in Li Zhangsheng's possession.

The Flamingo's comprehensive strength was no longer inferior to Aixi's. It seemed it could serve as a trump card for playing the pig to eat the tiger; after all, Aixi had already appeared in public many times, while the Flamingo was different—it had almost never appeared in public.

After finishing the display, the Flamingo excitedly came to Li Zhangsheng and took the initiative to lower its head, expressing its joy.

This had never happened before; it was clear that the Flamingo had completely accepted Li Zhangsheng.

Li Zhangsheng stroked the Flamingo's head before recalling it.
