Various emotions spread in Yang Jian’s heart, but looking at Lin Guang who was calm and composed, he quickly gathered his emotions and spoke with difficulty:
"Professor Gu, halt the experint and evacuate with the data."
Indeed, he dared not gamble.
Lin Guang did not move, seemingly acquiescing to his actions.
Professor Gu stared intensely at the screen, but his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted angrily: "Yang Jian, you dare give orders? Are you out of your mind?"
"Professor Gu, we can’t afford this risk."
Yang Jian continued to stare at Lin Guang, his eyes filled with apprehension and contemplation: "Please evacuate."
"No! There’s no ti... there’s no ti!!"
"I don’t have another chance!"
Professor Gu was furious, his extrely aged face showing a reckless look: "The experint is at its most critical point, I will definitely succeed this ti! Even if you die, you must hold him back for !"
"...Professor Gu, I’m afraid I can’t comply."
Yang Jian shook his head, took out the communicator, and prepared to instruct the researchers to pack the data and prepare to evacuate the base - although the other party was quite experienced, his position wasn’t inferior, and the Spiritual Contract signed upon joining the Divine Heart Association couldn’t force him to follow Professor Gu’s orders for such a suicidal action.
Professor Gu frantically tapped on the keyboard, communicating with the apparatus using not insignificant spiritual power to continue operations, forcibly maintaining the progress of the experint as more and more researchers left their seats.
"I can still succeed... it’s still possible!!"
"You pushed to this!"
He abandoned the keyboard, took out a silver-grey bell from his pocket, and shook it vigorously, waves of eerie spiritual fluctuations radiated out, but while the surrounding researchers were unaffected, Yang Jian’s complexion changed, veins bulged on his forehead, his face twisted, and he began to clutch his head and scream.
Four-Star Spirit Masters often have a strong pain tolerance, what kind of agony could cause such behavior?
This bizarre scene caused Lin Guang to furrow his brows; just as he was about to activate the Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence, Yang Jian’s body began to transform.
His entire body emitted crackling sounds, and his nearly three-ter-tall form continued to expand, like an inflated balloon, clothes were torn apart, muscles and bones grew wildly, with the head, body, and lower limbs enlarging in a bizarre posture, only the upper limbs shrunk.
In just a mont, Yang Jian transford from a half-dragon man into a giant monstrosity.
It lifted its massive head and roared towards the sky.
Yet the nearby Steel Armor Shield-top Dragon and Bone-winged Dragon seed dumbfounded, standing still.
"Roar—!!!"
[Species]: Death Gluttonous Dragon (Yang Jian)
[Origin]: Divine Heart Association Laboratory
[Potential]: Purple Legend
[Status]: Genetic Collapse (Negative), Unknown (Negative).
[Level]: 44
[Skills]: ...
[Trait]: ...
Clearly, this was the secret left in Yang Jian’s body by that old researcher.
Such physical transformation is certainly not without cost.
Whether awakening the residual will of the fused Spirit Beast within Yang Jian or achieving it through other ans, this state seems to be a complete, irreversible beastification.
And looking at the reaction of the two nearby Spirit Beasts, even their contracts might be severed!
Instantly, it extended its short and deford upper limbs and plucked off the newly ford Reverse Scale with bloodstains from its chest.
"Awoo—"
Instantly, dazzling black and white flas began to burn on his body, the terrifying aura soared.
[Reverse Scale] activated!
"There’s truly no such thing as a free lunch in this world."
A trace of disgust flashed in Lin Guang’s eyes as he took a deep breath, "But don’t you know..."
"Growing big and ugly is a giant flag signaling imminent demise."
The Death Gluttonous Dragon opened its bloody maw, starting to gather power.
In the next mont, it was hit first by the ghostly blue flas that had been building for a long ti, forcing it to montarily halt.
Lisa’s Fox Fire had already been prepared long before the transformation!
anwhile, Vishdair suddenly took out seven brilliant, glowing red Crystal Stones, and cast them forward.
They streaked through the sky like teors, following graceful trajectories, and entered the Death Gluttonous Dragon’s gaping mouth.
The silver-haired girl laughed heartily: "1, 2, 3, boom!"
Boom!!
It had just recovered from the wisp-like control of the foxfire when its movents suddenly froze, and its body swelled abruptly.
anwhile, Vishdair also charged like a teor, his fist landing precisely on the spot where the reverse scale had just been stripped away.
With the boost from Lisa’s talent, "Draw the Ground as a Prison," the body of the Death Gluttonous Dragon finally crumbled under the imnse pressure, exploding in what’s akin to a firework, shattering into countless pieces.
After the ferocious giant beast known as Yang Jian fell to the ground with a roar, the two Spirit Beasts nearby, at a loss due to the broken Enslavent Contract and in a daze, were also easily dealt with by Vishdair.
[You and your partner have defeated an enemy at Purple Level 44, Star Fragnt progress bar increased.]
[You and your partner have defeated an enemy at Blue Level 44, Star Fragnt progress bar increased.]
[You and your partner have defeated an enemy at Blue Level 41, Star Fragnt progress bar increased.]
[Star Fragnt progress bar 100%, obtained 1 Star Shard.]
"That person was quite strong, but he got weaker after transforming."
Vishdair brushed the dust off his hands as he comnted.
Lin Guang nodded, "Outsiders guiding insiders is like this, without transforming, it would’ve been more of a fight."
His tone was calm, indifferent to eting a Four-Star Spirit Master on equal ground.
Despite being a Two-Star Spirit Master fighting against a Four-Star Spirit Master and even winning, it sounded a bit incredible, but Lin Guang knew that this was just the norm—or the threshold—for true geniuses.
Yet the next mont, he suddenly clutched his head, muffled a groan, and Lisa imdiately grabbed his hand with concern, using her petite but strong body to support him.
Lin Guang shook his head hard, coming back to his senses, standing upright: "I’m fine."
The silver-haired girl frowned, "You were like that earlier, is it over-exhaustion? Or is it really like what that guy said, too many side effects from drinking those potions?"
"I don’t know either... sothing feels off with the talent."
Lin Guang took a deep breath, forcing down the doubts in his heart.
"Captain Yang Jian, please hold on, the Vice President will return in just over twenty minutes!"
With his spiritual power still active, Lin Guang’s senses were very sensitive, and he noticed the faint voice upon looking down, revealing a miniature black earpiece.
It seed to have belonged to Yang Jian and had fallen out after transforming into the Death Gluttonous Dragon.
Lin Guang thought for a mont and quickly realized what was happening.
The recent battle coincidentally affected the nearby caras, preventing the monitoring room from knowing the battle situation, but the earpiece managed to avoid damage, inadvertently leaking information to him, the enemy.
Undoubtedly, luck was still on Lin Guang’s side.
Honestly, Lin Guang had considered the opponent possessing a spiritual artifact capable of long-distance communication, but the speed of this return surprised him; the Secret Realm had arrived for several hours, and most strongests would have entered into the Secret Realm in the wilderness over a thousand kiloters away by now.
If the opponent was delayed by sothing and hadn’t gone to the Secret Realm, that was one thing, but if they received news and ca from the Secret Realm, it would be troubleso—Lin Guang’s full-on assault on the base had only been a little over twenty minutes, and even a Five-Star Spirit Master specializing in long-distance travel couldn’t co back so quickly.
This ant that the Vice President was most likely a True Man.
However, there were still over twenty minutes... quite sufficient.
With a long exhale.
Lin Guang suddenly turned his gaze onto Lisa.
The girl was quietly watching the direction of the main console.
Lin Guang softly asked, "Is it him?"
Lisa nodded.
The researchers, upon seeing Yang Jian transford as the Death Gluttonous Dragon collapse to the ground, had mostly already left their posts, preparing to escape through the side escape passage, leaving only a few researchers and that Professor Ku still seated in place.
He paid no attention to the life aura that had already dissipated from Yang Jian or the protective shield turned off for escaping, but instead, was maniacally staring at the conditions in the experintal observation area and the various data asurents on the large screen.
The old man quickly typed on the keyboard, and two chanical-elent Spirit Beasts, resembling oversized diodes with limbs, erged to help him operate the nearby equipnt.
He kept panting, cursing loudly, "Trash... all fucking trash!"
"It’s no use, it can’t be stabilized."
Lin Guang walked up behind him, looking at the big screen, speaking calmly—he wasn’t entirely clueless, he could understand so things like the ether spectrum and the stability of the Sea of Spirit.
"If it weren’t for you guys... if it weren’t for you!!!"
He suddenly stopped speaking.
Because, inside the observation area, the Spirit Rune Array suddenly showed signs of collapse.
The white candles began extinguishing in pieces, the passageways of the Spirit Rune Array suffered obstructions, becoming erratic, and the Purple Crystal Primordial Image that had nearly etherized, shrinking to almost a fifth of its original size, suddenly emitted a vast purple light.
Then, it quickly contracted, irreversibly transforming into a purple crystal stone, about the size of a fist.
— The experint had terminated and ca to a halt.
