Joelson had always regarded the giant dragon as his partner. This time, using Du Lu and the steel dragon's hard work to increase his strength had almost touched Joelson's bottom line. He could not help but feel a little guilty.
Du Lu moved its big head closer and, like when it was young, it arched its head against Joelson's body. Its hot tongue licked his body and it acted coquettishly like a big dog.
The steel dragon also growled a few times. It had never been good at expressing its feelings.
When Kokonoro saw this scene, its eyes became a little complicated. It could see that the feelings between Joelson, Du Lu, and the steel dragon had gone beyond the bond of blood. They were willing to sacrifice everything for each other from the bottom of their hearts.
This was also the reason why Du Lu and the steel dragon did not hesitate to tear open their chests to let Joelson in.
This was the first time Connie had seen the gentle side of Joelson and she was very touched.
Joelson turned around to check his body. He had become much stronger.
Moreover, after being watered by the steel dragon's blood, there was an inexplicable sharp aura all over his body. He waved his hand as if he was unsheathing a sharp blade.
His skin was still white but there seemed to be dark golden light flowing under his skin. It was extremely tough. Connie could not leave any wounds on Joelson's body without dragonizing even with the meteor sword.
The legendary inner armor from before didn't matter to him anymore.
His strength, speed, and defense weren't inferior to the intermediate stage of the saint-level!
"Try dragonizing!"
Kokonoro said. It was looking forward to what level Joelson could reach in dragonizing.
Joelson nodded. He mobilized the inexplicable aura in his bloodline and a terrifying aura instantly rose from his body.
Connie knelt on the ground almost instantly with a horrified look on her face.
This was the subconscious display of the inferior against the superior. It was the suppression of the bloodline hierarchy.
The might of Joelson's dragon was much stronger than hers.
Joelson's body was still undergoing changes.
His body grew taller. His originally thin body became plump and robust, yet still slender and perfect.
Fine scales grew out of his elbows and cheeks, and the dragon horns on his forehead protruded slightly.
His pair of eyes, in particular, slowly turned from pitch-black to a deep golden color.
He appeared extremely noble, tyrannical, and cold.
Even Kokonoro looked into his eyes and a desire to submit arose in its heart.
The half-dragon transformation of Joelson did not change much. He did not even grow a dragon tail but the increase in his strength was still terrifying!
Peak-stage saint-level!
The meteor sword appeared in Joelson's hand, and his figure disappeared and reappeared as if he had teleported.
A brilliant platinum light flashed and a clear spatial crack appeared in the air. It lasted for a few seconds before it slowly disappeared.
Looking at Joelson's back, its eyes felt a piercing pain.
Too powerful.
Half-dragon transformation, Meteor Sword, and platinum power. Joelson felt that he could easily kill a peak-stage saint-level powerhouse.
Using the system interface to check his combat strength, after half-dragonification, he had reached more than 70,000!
An extremely terrifying number.
Moreover, Joelson still had a lot of room for improvement.
The strength of platinum power had not reached its limit. The power of his physical body could also be increased.
If he had platinum power that was formed from the fusion of more than 500 laws, with a peak-stage saint-level half-dragonification body, would he be able to kill one in the domain of a god?
Joelson was looking forward to it.
His pupils were dark gold and his cheeks were covered in dragon scales. The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a ferocious and tyrannical handsome face.
Casually waving the long sword in his hand, he muttered to himself, "I really hope that those people from the Church of Light won't give up so easily."
..
Dozens of figures stood on the clouds, each of them emitting a powerful aura.
Saint-level. So many saint-level experts were gathered here.
Under their feet were bustling human towns as small as ants.
They were like gods, standing on the clouds overlooking the human world.
This was the saint-level, the kingdom of the top experts of the middle continent.
In the beginning, only saint-level experts could enter this place but, as the families of saint-level experts moved in, their descendants multiplied, and gradually developed into cities in the saint-level.
Until now, this place could almost be considered a small world.
Dozens of saint-level masters gathered together in a rare sight. In front of them was an extremely wide and endless staircase that extended upwards.
On the staircase, a few figures were climbing up with great difficulty.
They seemed to be burdened with great pressure. Every step forward required great effort.
"I wonder how many steps the Golden Lion can reach? The little guy named Franklin who was on par with him last time came here. When he left, he reached the 35th step. His strength has broken through to the late stage of the saint-level. He's not even 50 years old yet."
"Oswede's talent is even better than Franklin's. Even if he doesn't have much experience for the first time, he should be at least at the 30th step."
"I heard that recently, a sun radiance level genius appeared. Even the Church of Light's Stanley was killed by him. If that person were to come over, who knows how many more people would be able to go up?"
"Hehe, that person's talent isn't that great. It's just that he was lucky and signed a contract with a few powerful dragons. The Holy Zither of the Church of Light went out to hunt him two days ago. I'm afraid we can only see his head."
"Holy Zither."
At the mention of this name, the surrounding saint-level powerhouses revealed deep admiration and reverence on their faces. It was a kind of admiration that came from the bottom of their hearts.
At this time, a figure on the stairs suddenly let out an angry roar that was like a giant dragon. His body suddenly expanded.
The saint-level powerhouses immediately cried out in surprise.
"It's Malcolm from the Dragon Blood Clan. He's half-dragonized!"
The figure had completely turned into a ferocious monster. Not only did he grow dragon horns and tail but even his face had become long and narrow, like the head of a dragon.
"The higher the dragon-blood a warrior of the dragon-blood family turns into, the stronger his strength and talent are. Malcolm's dragon turn is probably over 50%. How terrifying!"
Someone said with shock on his face.
As if confirming what he said, the sinister figure on the stairs suddenly stomped on the ground. With a loud explosion, he actually climbed up three steps in a row.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
The sinister figure instantly pulled away from the others.
"Twenty-seventh step."
Someone sighed, "It's really amazing. The time it took for Malcolm to reach this position is half the time it took last time. Such an improvement speed is really too terrifying!"
"The Golden Lion has also started to exert his strength."
In their line of sight, a tall and sturdy figure was rising with golden flames. With a determined pace, he would climb up one step every once in a while, trying his best to catch up with the ferocious figure in front of him.
"I wonder who can walk higher?"
"It's definitely Malcolm. Although the Golden Lion's strength is not bad, Malcolm is still a member of the Dragon Blood Clan, after all. The advantage is too great. The Dragon Blood Clan, you know."
The spectators discussed animatedly. Some people sighed.
