Chapter 410: Activating the Golden Twin-Headed Dragon Bloodline
One month later, inside the elemental pool chamber of the White Dragon Tower.
At this moment, powerful arcane energy was bubbling up from the elemental pool. The azure blue liquid continuously produced rolling foam, and each time a bubble burst, it released powerful energy.
Immediately after, Locke picked up the Solar Potion and took a sip. This was a level 8 synthesized item Solar Potion that had been enhanced through synthesis.
Only the heat control operations had been modified, reducing the use of one type of ice element magical flame. The result actually enhanced the Solar Potion's effects, elevating it to perfect grade.
Locke drank down the perfect grade Solar Potion, and immediately his body constructed layers of flame energy. That wisp of sunlight captured from the sky entered Locke's body, transforming his constitution and granting him the talent known as Child of the Sun.
Yes, in the field of First Circle potion studies, as long as one was willing to spend money, talents like Child of Element could be artificially created.
However, this transformation was extremely intense, and even the constitution and mana of an ordinary First Circle wizard might not be able to withstand it.
Therefore, during the apprentice stage, one had neither the funds nor the physical conditions to accept this kind of transformation.
And Locke himself, as a potion master using the primordial fire to prepare the Solar Potion, had spent at least a hundred thousand magic stones.
For ordinary First Circle wizards, it wasn't just simply a matter of money, but also issues like information gaps and so on. They might not necessarily know about these things, and even if they did, they had no means to obtain the precious Solar Potion.
The Solar Potion had always been called the art of heat control in the First Circle potion studies stage.
Thirty-three types of magical flames, over a thousand heat control switches of magical flames, plus raw materials costing no less than thirty thousand, were needed to prepare one bottle of Solar Potion. This made many wizards, even potion master wizards, shy away from this type of potion.
But as long as the heat control problem was solved, the Solar Potion actually became easier to handle. Its materials were relatively easy to collect, the formula was clear, and both side effects and effects were very definite.
One hour later, the energy on Locke's body surface completely converged. The medicinal properties were fully absorbed by his body, and then his eyes burst forth with a flash of firelight.
"My perception of fire element particles has achieved a qualitative improvement, but this is just the foundation. My ability to sense composite particles within fire element particles, such as light particles, brilliance particles and other sun-type particles, has also achieved a qualitative improvement."
Locke gently exhaled a breath of turbid air. "Truly worthy of being called the Solar Potion, the art of heat control in the First Circle stage."
"Its efficacy is indeed powerful. This way, my perception ability for life energy is twice that of ordinary Children of the Elements (because of being a Nature Guardian), my perception ability for sun particles is at the level of a Child of the Elements, and my perception of ordinary fire elements should also be at the level of a grade 7 Child of the Elements."
Locke looked at the Fire Pearl Tomato Flower worn on his right index finger. He saw it burst forth with Flame Bright Spirit Qi, several times more powerful than usual.
"Because of my Child of the Sun constitution, the power of the First Circle plant magic Flame Bright Spirit Qi I use has increased by at least ten percent."
"It seems that transforming one's constitution into a Child of the Elements in a certain direction is still meaningful. For First Circle wizards, they have long lifespans and numerous means. Fields like bloodline studies, potion studies, alchemy studies and so on all have ways to let us obtain constitutions equivalent to Children of the Elements."
"Talent has, to a certain extent, become something humans can modify, while truly important things like ideas have become the most precious wealth."
Locke pondered, "Of course, modifying a wizard's talent level, even for First Circle wizards, still means enormous resource consumption, requires tremendous learning costs, and some information source channels, so it's not a simple matter either."
Locke checked his own body. He could already sense that within his body was a preliminarily formed Golden Twin-Headed Dragon bloodline, except it was still too weak right now, with insufficient energy, roughly equivalent to the level of a first-class wizard apprentice.
It was just that after being stimulated by the perfect grade Solar Potion, this bloodline within his body was completely activated.
Originally there was still a possibility of activation failure, with the formation being suddenly interrupted halfway through, but now it was like entering a highway and could no longer be stopped.
Locke freely switched back and forth between dragon vertical pupils and human pupils. At the same time, a golden force field formed around his body, an energy field domain formed by golden magic.
Locke walked out of the elemental pool and changed into a clean wizard robe, while the liquid arcane energy in the elemental pool rapidly returned to the elemental fission well.
Locke took out from his astral ring a document about the Golden Twin-Headed Dragon. This was the only document about the Golden Twin-Headed Dragon in the White Dragon Tower library's interior.
"Young Golden Twin-Headed Dragons possess First Circle level strength and have some special golden magic. Among them is one most basic magic, which is the anti-life field, Golden Force Field."
"Dragons don't have permanent defensive fields, only wizards possess permanent defensive fields, but dragons have something similar, which is what keeps dragons immortal and prevents them from being injured, the most solid armor in the world, dragon scales." Locke read the materials. "Through archaeologists' methods, tracing back their basic abilities, it was discovered that ancient dragons, the dragon scales of Golden Twin-Headed Dragons, were inscribed with... Golden Force Field runes."
"Golden Force Field is one type of anti-life field in the First Circle stage. In areas covered by the Golden Force Field, life cannot survive. Mortal things will be forcibly turned into golden statues. Mortal fire will instantly extinguish. Mortal water cannot approach. Mortals will lose their souls, directly dying, leaving behind a golden skeleton that is then collected as treasure by the Golden Twin-Headed Dragon."
"At the same time, even wizards cannot approach the anti-life field, Golden Force Field. Magical attacks will be blocked by the dragon scale armor covered by this anti-life field. A wizard's life may also be forced to be lost during the process of prolonged contact with dragon scales."
"Even wizards with powerful mana cannot stay in an anti-life field for long periods. Their life force will gradually perish, causing them to become weakened."
Locke hadn't expected this anti-life field to be so powerful. "Dragon scales are one source of a dragon's power, at least during the young dragon stage this is so. A dragon's scales are equivalent to a wizard's permanent defensive field at the soul level."
"Although my Golden Twin-Headed Dragon bloodline is still too immature, plus I'm essentially still a wizard and not a dragon, so there's no way to obtain dragon scales, some... runes have already appeared on the surface of my skin."
Locke focused his mind, and those hidden golden dragon language runes lit up with spell radiance. Immediately after, an invisible prototype of an anti-life field appeared around Locke's body.
But it was only a prototype. It was just that Locke used his own magical pressure to support this semi-finished dragon scale product on his body. As a result, using his current normal magical pressure of 6030, he directly strengthened the Golden Force Field to the level of a normal First Circle defensive magic.
Locke's expression changed slightly. "Wait, because this ancient creature bloodline originally came from within my body, it integrates very well with my own soul, unlike other ancient creature bloodlines where I only possess a portion of their power."
"So, I now possess a semi-finished dragon scale product. If I modify it slightly and develop it to a certain extent, I can completely use it as a core to release a defensive magic with strength approaching a permanent defensive field."
Locke began to think deeply. "Of course, semi-finished dragon scale products will forever only be semi-finished products. They will just become more complete as the Golden Twin-Headed Dragon bloodline within my body becomes more powerful, but because I'm only human, I'll never be able to possess dragon scales."
"However, I can combine this magic with my Forest Sanctuary, and if I can somehow purchase a real dragon scale, perhaps I'll be able to use something very close to, or even equal to, the anti-life field unique to ancient dragons like the Golden Twin-Headed Dragon."
Anti-life fields were quite renowned in wizard civilization.
His own life field was called an anti-undead creature field.
