Chapter 182 Supreme Treasure, [Red Crystal Core]!

After listening to the words of Loik, the deputy leader of the hunting group, Ryan felt a mixture of silence and shock.

The source of "Hong Yao" is actually a terrifying creature that transcends taboos?

It's not quite right to say it's a living creature. To be precise, it should be an ultra-ancient monster comparable to a god?

"Taboo" must be the name for the stronger monster above the "Crown", and Ryan has never seen even a "taboo" monster, let alone the "source of red light" above the "taboo".

The water in this world is deeper than he imagined...

Ryan sighed in his heart, and when he met the eyes of Deputy Captain Loick, he nodded vigorously: "Don't worry."

After receiving Ryan's promise, a faint smile appeared on the face of Deputy Captain Loick. At this moment, the red streaks all over his body shone brighter and brighter, giving people a feeling that he was about to be broken.

"The erosion is coming, I have no regrets in being able to see you..."

Deputy Captain Loick's voice gradually became lower. He raised his right hand and, under Ryan's gaze, thrust it into the left side of his heart.

"Pong..."

There was a crisp sound, and the skin of Deputy Captain Loick was covered with dense cracks, and the color of the red lines on his body gradually became darker as if absorbed by some kind of force.

A dodecahedron crystal surrounded by rich red light was taken out from his heart by deputy leader Loick.

As this object was separated from the body, Deputy Captain Loick's appearance could no longer remain young and became aging at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Then Ryan, everything will be left to you, to you..."

There was a faint, heartfelt smile on his lips.

In the aftertaste of the voice, Deputy Captain Loick's body could no longer hold on. With a "bang", it exploded into countless red ash, leaving only the red dodecahedron crystal, quietly suspended in the air. Half empty.

Ryan pursed his lips.

He couldn't explain his emotions at the moment.

Deputy Captain Loick was a very important person to him.

His route on the mysterious island was, to a certain extent, following the footsteps of deputy captain Loick. Now, the "predecessor" who once guided his direction has been destroyed due to the erosion of "red light". Disappearing and destroying itself before his eyes...

Ryan reached out silently and picked up the red dodecahedron crystal left by deputy leader Loick, and the prompts on the panel also appeared in front of him at this moment.

——

[Red Obsidian Crystal Core]: A special crystal that can only be born in the bodies of living beings who are deeply affected by the "Red Obsidian Sun" and advance to the status of 'gods'. It can be used as a material for high-level magic potions. After the creature takes it, "red light evolution" will occur if it succeeds, and it will die suddenly if it fails. For beings that have "evolved into red obsidian", after swallowing this thing, they can advance their red obsidian evolution to a deeper level. Individuals who successfully "evolve red obsidian" through crystallization will not be controlled by the "source of red obsidian" and can maintain their sanity, but they still need to resist the periodic erosion caused by "red obsidian". To manifest into the body, each requires 5,000,000 (500w) spiritual value.

——

When he first landed on the mysterious island, Ryan had obtained several [Red Obsidian Crystals] in the cave where Deputy Captain Loick stayed. Dayin evolved because of the [Red Obsidian Crystals], and Xiao Zi also evolved because of the [Red Obsidian Crystals]. [Red Obsidian Crystal] was born.

This thing is so precious that it is simply indescribable. Ryan doesn’t even know how the original deputy leader Loick and the others made it.

But if compared with [Red Obsidian Crystal Core], then [Red Obsidian Crystal] is far inferior in terms of level and effect.

[Red Obsidian Crystal] can only have an effect on monsters, because the impure red obsidian energy is extremely violent, and no living thing except monsters can withstand it. But the [Red Obsidian Core] can be used by any living being.

Although the benefits brought by the evolution of Hong Yao are not detailed in the panel, how could Ryan not know about it after coming to the mysterious island for so long?

Deputy Captain Loick is the most striking example.

Although after "evolving the red sun", it still needs to periodically resist the erosion of the red sun, but it can gain strength comparable to the "taboo" with its fragile human body.

Whether it is good or bad is hard to say.

Ryan put away the [Red Obsidian Crystal Core]. Right now, he did not need to take risks to obtain the power of "Red Obsidian". After all, this thing has a probability of failure, and once it fails, it will result in sudden death. .

But if one day, he is in danger, [Red Obsidian Core] can be regarded as the last trump card to survive in a death situation.

It was the exchange price of 5 million spiritual points. Ryan was quite shocked when he saw it. This was the first time he saw such an expensive thing.

The most expensive thing that Ryan had ever exchanged before - [Super Heart·See Through·Double Embedded Holy Glass Beads] only had a spiritual value of 500,000.

However, spiritual value is not difficult to obtain, and it is not too painful to use.

Putting the [Red Obsidian Crystal Core] away, Ryan raised his head and looked at the "Dark Green Loofah" monster not far away due to the death of Deputy Captain Loick and the gradual disintegration of the "Red Obsidian Blockade".

——

[[Grand Rank] - Gluttonous Dinosaur: Gluttonous Dinosaur is a large beast dragon species known for its astonishing appetite. According to rumors, it even has the record of devouring ancient dragons.

It has the strongest physique among the beast dragons, dark green skin with rough lines, a pair of small eyes and a large mouth with a large crack. There are many rows of well-developed fangs in the mouth, which are arranged outside the upper and lower lips. These teeth can be regenerated continuously, so when the gluttonous dinosaur feels that its teeth are not good, it will rub on the hard ground to make the broken teeth fall off quickly so that the teeth can be regenerated.

The forelimbs are so short that people think they have no forelimbs at all, while the hind limbs are surprisingly developed and can be used for long-distance jumping. The tail is basically as thick as its body.

There is a dragon-attribute organ in the body of the gluttonous dinosaur that can store a large amount of dragon-attribute energy. When the gluttonous dinosaur is angry, the dragon-attribute energy in its mouth will burst out of its mouth uncontrollably, and the muscles of the body will also swell under the stimulation of the dragon-attribute energy, entering the "muscle expansion state". When the gluttonous dinosaur is hungry, saliva will continue to flow out of its mouth, which can reduce the defense of the hunter's armor.

Miserable silence, terrifying violence, and hot, the tide of the food chain is coming! 】

——

"[Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur... an existence beyond the three Grands..."

The rich red light gradually faded, and the huge Gluttonous Dragon lost its suppression, emitting a terrifying aura.

The newly awakened [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur did not attack immediately, but looked at the place where the deputy leader Loic disappeared with fear.

Even though the desire for gluttony filled his body and mind, the "taboo" level of power still made the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur feel extremely afraid.

However, with the death of the deputy leader Loic, the remaining taboo pressure dissipated, and the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur, without the threat of life and death, rationality was once again occupied by the desire for gluttony.

The sticky saliva kept flowing out from the corners of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur's mouth, dripping onto the ground, making a "sizzling" corrosion sound like aqua regia.

The exaggerated muscles of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur gradually expanded. The strong body and high-intensity metabolism made the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur's desire to eat extremely strong.

Having been suppressed by the deputy leader Loic for so long, it had been tortured by hunger and went crazy.

The blood-red dragon eyes stared at Ryan in the distance. Even though Ryan's size was only enough to fill the gap between the teeth of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur, the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur, which was tortured by hunger at this moment, would not hesitate to eat even a tiny piece of meat as long as it could relieve its hunger.

"Roar——!"

The dragon roared, and the muscles of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur's legs bulged violently, almost tearing the dark green outer skin, revealing the dark red flesh and blood fascia inside.

The huge body jumped high, and then, like a falling meteorite, it smashed towards Ryan.

Ryan's face was solemn.

He had already prepared for the battle, so he would naturally not be hit by such a simple move.

"Boom!"

The platform ground shook violently, cracks continued to spread, and the strong wind carried the gravel, crashing towards Ryan's face as he retreated more than ten meters.

The blood barrier was propped up, and Ryan raised his right hand. A blood-colored spiral spear engraved with patterns appeared in his hand. After a very short charge, it burst out and flew towards the center of the smoke.

Thanks to the newly acquired special skill [Mystery of Dark Light Dragon], the consumption of the blood spear was reduced by half. Even if the "blood barrier" and the "blood spear" with full blood were used, the blood value of [Holy Relic·Embrace of Blood] was still half, so it would not be exhausted.

However, the flying "blood spear" was swept and shattered by a thick black shadow as soon as it entered the range of the smoke.

That was the extremely thick muscle dragon tail of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur.

Thanks to Ryan's surging [Physique], the full-blooded "Blood Spear" has increased its power a lot. Before it was broken, it left a blood hole of medium depth on the dragon tail of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur.

Compared with the previous situation where it couldn't even break the defense when dealing with the "Ancient Dragon-Corpse Dragon", it was a great improvement.

But this little power couldn't stop the sweep of the dragon's tail.

Unlike all the monsters Ryan had encountered before, the tail of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur was surprisingly thick, only slightly smaller than its body. It looked a bit bulky, but in fact, it was extremely fast. The combination of extreme power and extreme speed brought unparalleled destructive power.

Although the pure physical attack didn't look as gorgeous as the pale fire of the Dark Light Dragon, the threat was much stronger.

The green wind was flowing, quietly and silently, and Ryan's figure was broken by the sweep of the dragon's tail, and his real body had already used "Walking Wind Slash" to pull back more than ten meters.

Green light shone on the great sword, and Ryan no longer held back. All available skills were activated, and he entered the strongest posture directly.

Using the blood energy converted from the consumption of blood, two "blood spears" engraved with patterns were condensed and thrown by Ryan at the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur.

With the blessing of [Brave Strike], the blood spears pierced into the body of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur at a speed far exceeding that of sound. Unfortunately, the muscle layer of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur was too hard, and the blood spears were crushed by the tense muscles after only piercing less than five centimeters, and even the "bleeding" effect was not triggered.

Although the three spear attacks did not cause much injury to the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur, they put it into a "rage state".

Its body continued to expand, and the skin on its surface cracked due to the expansion of its muscles, and purple-black dragon attribute energy continued to overflow from its mouth.

The violent aura swept all around. Unlike other monsters that had reached the crown level, the domain of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur was not an expansion type, but a micro-domain that only acted on the body and strengthened the body. The external feature was its exposed swollen muscles, with a layer of rich purple-black on the surface.

The oppressive feeling that was far stronger than before came towards him, and Ryan exhaled lightly.

He knew very well that the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur in front of him was completely different from ordinary monsters.

This guy had been completely eroded by the desire for gluttony. As long as he didn't die, he would continue to eat because of his super-fast metabolism. In this state, the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur would not be like a normal monster, holding back in battle, but would use all his strength from the beginning.

Therefore, his battle with the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur would be a quick battle of life and death.

Under the posture of full-strength explosion, blood-colored and blue light particles continued to escape from the surface of Ryan's body. Not only that, his long hair also showed translucent energy state.

[Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur opened its mouth angrily, and the surging breath expanded in an umbrella shape. Wherever it passed, the ground corroded and the air hissed. It was so fast that it came to Ryan in an instant.

The coverage of the dragon's breath was very wide, and it was impossible to dodge.

Ryan's eyes condensed, and the blood-colored light bloomed, intertwined with the blue light on the surface of the body, which was extremely dazzling.

——[Special Sword Skill·Collision Attack (Blade Heart Version)]!

The blood and blue meteors entangled in the purple-black torrent forced a passage.

With the extreme speed blessing, Ryan's long hair flew back and reached the side of [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur. On the big sword, the spiritual light burst out and slashed down.

However, although the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur looked bloated, its body was unusually agile. It was ready to deal with the sword before it even came close.

The black and purple energy in its body suddenly shone, and then a dragon-attribute energy shock was generated from the inside out. The huge force caused Ryan's movements to pause for a moment. In that moment, the huge dragon tail had swept across and hit the sword in Ryan's hand from the side.

This series of movements was so smooth that it was hard to imagine that a [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur could do it.

Perhaps this was a special bonus effect of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur's domain?

The dragon's might collided with the sword, and Ryan's "petite" body was instantly knocked away, and blood and flesh flew all over the dragon's might. That was the counter-injury brought by the [Joyful Thorn Aura] and the additional true damage attached to the "Blue Power".

Ryan was swept nearly two hundred meters away by the tail. After landing, his hands trembled slightly and blood was dripping.

But he seemed not to notice, just staring at the roaring [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur in the distance, his eyes were extremely heavy.

Compared with the range-type domain, the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur, which is a pure micro-domain that enhances itself, is more powerful in the same-level battle.

Ryan had also seen the application of this domain in the Azure Leader, but the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur was different.

How to say it, the Azure Leader can freely control the contraction of the domain, while the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur can only maintain the current micro-state, but in terms of the degree of enhancement, the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur seems to be better.

There was no time for Ryan to think too much, the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur, which was rushing at high speed, was so fast that it came in front of Ryan in less than a second.

The dragon's tail swept over again. Ryan, who had suffered a loss once, did not dare to confront it head-on and pulled back to keep his distance. However, before he retreated a few steps, he saw the [Champion] Gluttonous Dinosaur opened its bloody mouth, and purple-black energy surged in it. The next moment, a large ball of purple-black energy burst out and caught up with Ryan's back.

Unlike the previous large-scale breath, this energy ball attack method, although covering a much smaller range, is faster and has a stronger single-point explosive power.

Ryan was forced to raise his greatsword and block it in front of him.

The purple-black energy ball exploded violently the moment it touched the greatsword, and the purple-black electric arc shaped like lightning swept wildly, making Ryan's face slightly pale.

Even with many damage reductions, he was still seriously injured. If it were an ordinary flesh and blood body, even if it was similar to his [physique], it would be either dead or seriously injured under this attack.

The purple-black electric arc tried to spread on Ryan's body, but was forcibly suppressed by a magical force and could not take effect. Ryan knew that this was the credit of his newly acquired special skill [Abnormal State Resistance lv.3 (max)].

"Attribute resistance can still take effect, but my dragon attribute resistance is too low. The resistance of all parts of [Reverse Blade Armor] to dragon attribute attacks is negative, which actually aggravates the damage of dragon attribute attacks to me..."

Ryan's mind turned rapidly, looking at the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur that took advantage of the gap in his resistance to the energy ball attack and opened its mouth to bite him fiercely, with purple-black energy in its mouth, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

"Gospel, explode!"

Five layers of gospel marks were superimposed, and "Joyful Explosion" took effect immediately. The dark purple light spread on the body of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur, which was a deeper color than the purple-black color of the dragon attribute.

The sudden burst of internal real damage caused the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur's body to tremble suddenly, and its bite lost its accuracy. It fell to the ground with a bang, leaving a gap of dozens of meters on the ground.

Ryan's figure flashed, and he appeared on the side of the head of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur. He raised his greatsword and took advantage of this precious time to immediately start charging.

"Ding~Ding~Ding-Ding!"

The [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur was seriously injured, and purple-black energy continued to overflow from its mouth, as if it had "exploded", so that it could not get up for a while, giving Ryan time to complete the "True Charge Slash".

The spiritual light was like a rainbow, burning brightly, and the greatsword slashed from top to bottom, landing on the head of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the ground sank and cracked.

A huge crack was cut into the head of the [Crown] Gluttonous Dinosaur, and the skull inside was visible.

With the blessing of the "Blue Power", the [Crown Dragon Slashing Greatsword] that could not break the defense was deeply embedded in the skull, almost cutting it open.

After achieving victory with one strike, Ryan was not reluctant to leave and wanted to withdraw. He knew very well that a powerful monster like the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur could not be killed with one strike.

However, he was still a beat slower.

The furious dragon roar resounded from the mouth of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur. The violent sound waves even shattered the air. Even with the special skill [Earplugs lv.2], Ryan still felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and his body flew backwards under the impact of the violent sound waves.

In mid-air, blood kept flowing out of Ryan's seven orifices, and his retina turned bright red.

When he woke up from a brief fainting, what was reflected in his pupils was the bloody mouth of the [Grand] Gluttonous Dinosaur, which was close at hand and had interlaced sharp teeth!

Danger!
