Chapter 631 - 396: Fury Radiation, the Rational and Wild Red Iron Dragon
The wind and snow swept through the desolate sky of the Border Area, imprinting the chill deeply into every inch of land.
After a period of focused attempts and careful insights, Galos had basically figured out the wondrous changes in various parts of his body, especially the results brought by the evolution of Dragon Blood, which he understood thoroughly.
The free conversion between vitality and blood made his overall strength increase to a tremendous level.
Moreover, the high-concentration black-red flame formed by the burning of his Dragon Blood could be recycled or have strong eroding and destructive effects just by proximity.
In actual combat, Galos could make decisions based on different battle situations.
Whether to choose to recycle the emanating flame, converting it into precious blood volume to maintain survival and endurance, or to attach it to claws, wings, tail, or integrate it into breath to enhance his attack power.
"These tests are nearly complete, next, it’s your turn, Frenzy Fire."
The Red Iron Dragon narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of solemnity and expectation flashing across them.
To be safe, to avoid possible uncontrollable impacts on Dragon Valley during testing, he first spread his wings and soared up high, leaving the valley where his Followers gathered.
In a flat open space covered thickly with white snow and an expansive view.
Galos slowly descended, then gathered his thoughts, projecting his perception deep into his mind.
The Frenzy Fire, it has no physical presence, does not rely on the material; in essence, it is a strange and fierce fire of the mind that can continuously incite and amplify the fury emotions deep inside living beings, causing them to go mad and enraged until completely losing sanity.
The information that can be publicly known is that it initially came from a mysteriously vanished unnamed meteorite.
As for what it truly is, and where its real origin lies... these deeper secrets remain shrouded in mist, still unknown.
"Come alive and let me feel your presence more clearly."
Deep in his heart, the Red Iron Dragon called out.
At the same time, feeling the host’s will and guidance, the dormant Frenzy Fire began to flicker gently, the flames rising, then burning more vigorously.
An unnamed fury emerged, surged inside Galos, and continued to rise.
However, unlike the kind of situation before where once enraged, it would become increasingly uncontrollable.
Now, the rise in anger did not make Galos lose his composure.
Between his thoughts and the rising anger, it was as if there was an invisible yet tenacious barrier, allowing him to maintain a relatively detached and calm perspective to observe and control his anger, rather than being controlled by it.
Galos understood that this was some precious trait evolved through ten years of actively adapting to the Frenzy Fire, followed by thirty years of deep evolution during slumber.
This allowed him to preserve his rationality to the greatest extent while being furious.
"This is exactly the ideal state I envisioned back then."
"Although this is inseparably linked to my targeted training over a long period, the body’s ability to naturally evolve towards this direction without producing other uncontrollable mutations, does this mean that my adaptability is gradually evolving from passively responding to the environment to guiding subjective will?"
Galos pondered in his heart.
Passive adaptation to external environments versus actively guiding the body to change in specific directions, these are two completely different concepts.
He felt that if one day his talent could become entirely controllable, achieving a level of evolution that can be guided at will, that would be true strength, enough to face any challenge.
As for now, although his talent is not weak and has given him the capital to stand out among his peers, it’s not considered invincible; the achievements Galos has today are not solely reliant on the gifts of his talent but also due to the sweat and effort far exceeding other Giant Dragons.
And even so.
In the records of the Dragon Race’s heritage, there are still a few Dragon Race members exhibiting more dazzling radiance than him.
For example, three legendary Dragon species that only exist in texts and ballads.
They are born controlling not common elemental forces like earth, water, wind, or fire, but high-ranking abstract concepts like time, force, light.
It’s said that the excellent individuals among them are Legendary Life right when they break the shell.
Even the less accomplished ones can steadily become legendary in their youth.
However, these Dragons only exist in ethereal legends, very few recorded in the heritage, ambiguously narrated, perhaps merely rumors that spread inaccurately.
Not to mention the Material Realm where Bernardo Planet exists.
Even expanding the scope to various planes and the Endless World, it’s not guaranteed to encounter one.
Galos has no interest in competing with these ethereal Dragons that only exist in legends.
His true opponent has always only been his past self.
What he pursues is continuously breaking through his own limits, completing one life leap and evolution after another until true eternity and immortality.
He is convinced that even if those legendary Dragons truly exist, in the later stages of life levels, they may not necessarily be stronger than him, who has undergone countless directed evolutions and continuous self-optimizations.
As for those forces that sound abstract and strong.
He believes that he may evolve similar or even stronger abilities in the future.
Pushing down some wandering thoughts, Galos refocused his spirit on the Frenzy Fire within his body.
He did not try to restrain the ever-growing anger; instead, he opened his mind and body to cooperate with it, as if pouring oil on fire, letting the fire of the soul burn violently, far beyond the previous testing states.
