Chapter 555: Chapter 99 Sword Demon — The Dragon Slaying Strategy_3

System prompt: You have refined [Fish Demon to Jiao Inner Core], you have gained 2012 Spiritual Energy Value.

System prompt: You have gained 3297 Experience Points.

System prompt: You have comprehended 2 demon skills [Jiao Walking Skill: Tide Rise][Jiao Walking Skill: Wave Sky].

System prompt: You have obtained 32 Jiao Long Essence, you have started a Legendary Essence Accumulation Progress [Jiao Long’s Avatar], current progress 32%.

Indeed, the inner core of a BOSS is truly extraordinary, directly achieving one-third, and also comprehending two demon arts.

And it seems this Jiao Long’s Avatar is even more high-level compared to those before, which is what they call — Legendary Essence.

Probably because Jiao Longs are more legendary compared to ordinary Demons.

Xiao Jie checked the two newly obtained demon arts again.

[Jiao Walking Skill: Tide Rise (Innate Demon Technique: Third-tier)

Usage: Summons a tide to flood the current area, changes the surrounding terrain, creates a temporary water body within a 300-meter radius, lasts for 10 minutes (duration can be affected by environmental factors).

Demon Art Introduction: An innate demon technique unique to the Jiao Long clan, capable of freely controlling flowing water, manipulating rivers, and even tumultuous seas.]

[Jiao Walking Skill: Wave Sky (Innate Demon Technique: Second Order)

Usage: Summons a giant wave to sweep a target high into the sky, causing them to lose balance, its power increases by 100% when used in a body of water.]

Looking at these two demon arts, as well as the Jiao Long Essence, Xiao Jie fell into deep thought.

With so many essence slots, choices must be made. I can’t possibly absorb every core; after all, once I reach 8000 Spiritual Energy, my Qi Refining Skill will upgrade.

He isn’t planning to face Master Hongchen before he’s ready. (Now it seems like the Spiritual Energy spent each day is actually good news for accumulating more demon arts.)

With this in mind, choices must be made.

It’s best to stack one essence slot to full with limited resources.

The choice of essence is crucial; after all, strength varies among demon beast transformations. This game has no sense of balance; the disparities between weak and strong are stark. A poor demon beast transformation may have combat power that’s even weaker than an ordinary physical Profession, while a strong one could even solo bosses...

Xiao Jie outlined several targets for his essence path.

1. Flying. The transformation should preferably be able to fly.

2. Combat. Must have strong combat power; obviously, weak ones like wolves and pythons won’t cut it; it must be at least as strong as a fierce beast like lions or tigers.

3. Escaping. Ideally, it should have strong abilities for surviving and escaping.

4. Control. Should have control abilities.

5. AOE. Preferably has AOE so it can transform and fight when leveling later.

6. Especially powerful innate demon arts...

Of course, not all six criteria need to be met. After all, looking at the overall situation, he will definitely obtain many demon beast transformation abilities. Other abilities can be gradually acquired later, but the first one must be as strong as possible.

This Jiao Long is a good choice; dragons should be able to fly, combat power is unquestionably strong, escape...with the ability to fly and swim, that’s pretty good already.

Control — so this Wave Sky is the perfect control skill?

AOE — even less need to mention.

Innate Demon Technique — the Jiao Walking Skill isn’t weak either; of course, if he could collect dragon cores later and obtain the innate demon arts of the Dragon Clan, that would be even more powerful. Presumably, the Dragon Clan would surely have Divine Skills. The so-called wind follows the tiger, clouds follow the dragon, even tigers have the Call the Wind Skill, so it wouldn’t be excessive for dragons to have something like the Thunder Cloud Storm, right?

However, getting a dragon’s core, especially for a jiao or dragon, is not easy. Not to mention dragons, which are mythical creatures, even the weakest of dragons are top-tier existences, and this is evident even from the national founding tasks requiring dragon slaying.

Jiaos are a bit easier to deal with, but are also rare, much more powerful than ordinary demon beasts. For example, the number one on the bounty list in Canglin State is the Green Flood Dragon King.

So far, he has only seen one Jiao BOSS, which was catalyzed by a Demon Fruit.

Might as well check out the auction house.

Xiao Jie immediately went to the auction house and was dumbfounded by the search results; the auction house had many demon cores, but there was only one Jiao Long core.

Poisonous Flood Dragon Core: Auction price 999 taels.

This... in these two days, I’ve farmed tens of taels from slaying little monsters and earned ten or so taels from Cooking, plus my original savings, which amounts to no more than nearly 200 taels.

Alright, I might as well handle it myself.

Xiao Jie left the auction house feeling dismal.

Should I gather a team to hunt a few Jiao BOSSes? That should be enough to unlock it.

While pondering.

Suddenly, a private message appeared in the chat.

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use: Brother Sui Feng, you there?

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Yes, what’s up?

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use: It’s about the dragon slaying national founding. The guild has finally obtained reliable information on dragons these past few days, and the dragon slaying plan is about to begin. I know you have your own plans, but I still hope you can participate. This operation is crucial for the guild. The president decided to deploy troops from six towns along with the entire main group; every fighter is precious, especially a master like you.

Xiao Jie’s eyes lit up, thinking this is just the opportunity he needed.

Hidden Moon Following Wind: No problem, count me in.

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use: Really?

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Hahaha, of course, I have to give face to Brother Hidden Dragon. By the way, can you reveal what kind of dragon we’ll be hunting and where?

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use: Beiming State — Luoxue Valley, it’s a white dragon that has suffered a heavy injury, its tier and level are not low, but it’s within range for our guild to take down because of the injury, it’s a perfect target.
