Chapter 2 - 2 Blood of the Black King Nidhogg

  (Part 02)

Because hunting the dragon-horned lizard didn't consume much of Mo Yuan's energy, he just took a short rest and then sat cross-legged on the ground to pull the ten thousand year soul ring to his head.

As Mo Yuan began to absorb it, the dragon-horned lizard's ten thousand year soul ring exuded wisps of black air, which turned into streams of soul power and drilled out of Mo Yuan's body. Three soul rings, one yellow and two purple, emerged and slowly moved up and down beside Mo Yuan.

The majestic soul power in the meridians surged rapidly, and continued to be injected continuously. The intense swelling pain made Mo Yuan frown slightly.

But compared with what happened in his spiritual sea at this time, the trouble caused by absorbing the ten thousand year soul ring seemed insignificant.

The spiritual sea of ordinary soul masters is in the form of water. From the initial drops, it transforms into a vast and boundless ocean with the growth of soul power and cultivation.

 But Mo Yuan's spiritual sea is different.

In the deep dark night, heavy snow fell on the endless black land. The cold snow covered the mountains in the distance.

  In the center of the land, there stood gray tombstones, engraved with unknown languages, making the world look so desolate, cold and dilapidated.

Death and the end seemed to be synonymous with this place.

At this time, Mo Yuan was standing in this forest of tombstones, looking up at the sky in the distance, where an uninvited guest appeared.

"Is this the soul shock? It looks really powerful..."

In the sky, the dragon-horned hunting lizard was shrouded in the black resentment that condensed into substance. Its body floated there illusoryly, its eyes were scarlet and it roared towards Mo Yuan with a monstrous murderous intent.

  "Roar!!!"

It seemed that because it was already dead, the dragon-horned hunting lizard was not suppressed by its bloodline at this time. The moment it saw Mo Yuan, it came raging!

Facing the resentment coming towards him, Mo Yuan looked extremely calm and spoke in a calm tone,

"Unfortunately, my spiritual sea is not just you and me, there are other things..."

As he spoke, the dragon-horned hunting lizard in the sky swooped down like a black meteor with a crazy grin and a monstrous resentment!

The distance between the two was rapidly reduced in an instant, and the strong wind blowing towards him blew Mo Yuan's windbreaker constantly.

  "Roar!!!"

The dragon-horned hunting lizard opened its bloody mouth and bit Mo Yuan with its sharp teeth!

 At this critical moment,

The deep night suddenly began to shake violently, and a huge monster flashed through the dark sky.

The surging wind that followed, wrapped in the heavy snow, turned into a terrifying storm. A pair of huge black wings peeled off the entire sky and cast a shadow on the ground!

The huge black wings with countless white skeletons hanging on them came with endless disasters and unquestionable death!

  Dragon!

 It was a black dragon!

How solemn and terrifying that black dragon was, so ferocious and beautiful, so admirable yet so suffocating.

The black dragon's eyes were the same as Mo Yuan's, both of which were extremely dazzling golden pupils! There seemed to be flames flowing in its eyes, and its head was like a crown of an emperor. The scales all over its body were dark black, almost ink-black, and it seemed to be able to suck life into it at a glance!

The Black King Nidhogg came with unquestionable death at this moment!

The dragon-horned hunting lizard that had been grinning and killing Mo Yuan was now lying on the ground and at Mo Yuan's feet. It was trembling wildly all over, and even the monstrous resentment that enveloped it disappeared.

As a person with a trace of dragon blood in his body and having seen a pure-blooded dragon before, he knew very well how powerful a real dragon was, but when he saw the black dragon in the sky, he thought he was wrong.

That was the real dragon! That was the real horror!

His appearance symbolized the end and destruction of all things!

He was the incarnation of death and disaster!

Unfortunately... the dragon-horned lizard's kneeling could not make it invisible, nor could it escape from its predetermined death. The black dragon descended from the sky with a hurricane, and the earth trembled. Nidhogg fell behind Mo Yuan.

Then an even more terrifying gust of wind began to sweep! Nidhogg opened his mouth!

The trembling dragon-horned lizard did not resist at all, or it could not even think of resisting!   

The wind dissipated, the mouth closed, and the figure of the dragon-horned lizard disappeared in Mo Yuan's spiritual sea.

Silence once again enveloped the black land. In the gray tombstone forest, only Mo Yuan and Nidhogg's two pairs of golden eyes, one big and one small, were still shining.

The cold wind blew a strand of hair on Mo Yuan's face. He turned to face the huge black dragon that symbolized death. Looking at this perfect body that seemed to be created by the gods, he couldn't help but sighed:

"No matter how many times I see it, I can't help but be dazed. It's hard to imagine that Nidhogg is actually my martial soul. No, it's the blood of the black king Nidhogg..."

The blood of the black king Nidhogg, this is the martial soul of the time traveler Mo Yuan.

In his previous life, Mo Yuan entered the society and became a worker after graduating from university at the age of 22. His usual hobby was to read novels. After getting off work one day, he was reborn in the Tianhun Empire of Douluo Continent.

Both of his parents were soul masters at the soul master level. When Mo Yuan was five years old, they died accidentally while hunting soul beasts for others to make money.

Both of his parents' martial spirits were ordinary bow and arrow weapon spirits. Mo Yuan originally thought that his martial spirit was also similar to a bow, but after awakening his martial spirit, he found out that he was wrong.

His martial spirit was not a bow, but dragon blood, the dragon blood of Nidhogg!

This Nidhogg was not the black dragon that gnawed the world tree in the Norse mythology on the Blue Star, but the black dragon that destroyed the world after awakening in the author's Green-faced Beast Book!

The one who created the White King, the Four Kings, and the emperor of all dragons!

And when his martial spirit awakened, Mo Yuan also entered his spiritual sea, where he found a black dragon, He was - the Black King Nidhogg!

However, this Black King seemed to be a little bit wrong. He was not like the Black King described in the original book. Mo Yuan felt that He was more like a container.

After seeing this terrifying Black King, He conveyed some information to Mo Yuan.

Through the information, Mo Yuan learned that unlike all soul masters' martial spirits who hunted soul rings to obtain soul skills, he also had to hunt soul rings, but he did not get soul skills, but His blood.

Every time he reaches a higher realm, after Mo Yuan obtains a soul ring, he can exchange blood with the Black King, replacing one-tenth of the blood in his body with dragon blood and increasing the purity by 10%.

After obtaining dragon blood, according to the purity and proportion of the dragon blood, Mo Yuan can use the corresponding word spirits and obtain some knowledge of alchemy.

For example, now that he is at the third ring, Mo Yuan can basically use all the word spirits below serial number 70, as well as simple self-forging and element control alchemy.

Of course, due to the change in rules, the release of word spirits is also linked to soul power, and the soul power consumed by word spirits increases according to the change in power.

The reason why he was able to use the monarch flame of serial number 89 just now was because... he had a blood burst.

Through mental means, suppressing the "human" part of the body and improving the "dragon" part is a blood burst, also known as blood refining technology.

Mo Yuan once burst blood to increase the content and purity of dragon blood in his body to 40% before using the monarch flame.

Of course, there are side effects of blood burst.

However, unlike the "slowly heading to hell" in the original novel, which would lead to certain death, he would only be weakened for a period of time after using the first burst of blood.

But it was only the first burst of blood. If Mo Yuan burst blood for the fourth time, he could indeed increase his strength temporarily to the point where he could use the words of "Black Sun" and "Judgment", but the price was that he would be occupied by the Black King in the sea of spirits.

From then on, he would die, the Black King would descend, and then destroy this world.
