Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 463: The Great Transformation of the Ancient Tree
The crystals that wrapped Luo Yun were all new Tai crystal energies that had been successfully localized and mixed with life energy. This was a new elemental energy that was further sublimated based on the original fire attribute energy.

With the assistance of life energy, a Tai crystal energy that is almost physical is formed.

And inside the 'egg', in the faint flowing light, Luo Yun was covered with an extremely strong Tai crystal shell to protect himself.

At this moment, his body seemed to have turned into an energy exchange machine tool. Various organs that had been transformed and enhanced in characteristics emitted absolutely high temperatures. If it were not for the isolation of the Taijing shell, I'm afraid a big hole would have been burned in the ancient tree.

At this moment, His body was acting as a converter while being transformed by the new Tai crystal energy.

As if it had intelligence, the ancient tree began to actively transfer its stored life energy to the nest through its branches, in order to make up for the loss in Luo Yun's transformation process.

The new Taijing energy sometimes dissipated and sometimes absorbed with Luo Yun's heartbeat.

The ancient tree that continuously provided life energy to Luo Yun, the Lord of Symbiosis, also slowly absorbed a lot of Taijing energy mixed with life energy in the process.

As the sun rises and the moon sets, the ancient tree, which had already been immersed in the Tai crystal energy and had begun to develop into Tai crystal, now reacted even more violently.

Within a few days, the patrol teams in various places of the ancient trees discovered that the newly grown branches of the ancient trees were no longer a mixture of Tai crystal branches and the original green branches, but had completely turned into Tai crystal branches.

In the cracks between the tree trunks that resembled veins, just like blood vessels flowing through them, an icy blue color, the same color as the Tai Crystal energy, began to flow undisguisedly.

On the thick trunk, heart-like crystals appeared on the surface, emitting a blue glow in a very regular pattern along with the flow of Tai crystal energy.

The tree canopy, which was originally just a small Taijing branch, now seemed to be nourished and could grow one meter every day. The ancient tree, which was originally mainly green in color, has now turned into a mixture of green and ice blue.

The large piece of bark acts like armor, tightly protecting the ice-blue body inside.

The trunks became stronger and the branches became thicker.

The entire ancient tree seemed to be undergoing the next transformation along with Luo Yun, transforming itself into an ice-blue Taijing Tree.

Large groups of crystal butterflies shuttled between the branches, and various buildings that had been fixed in position were also moved amid the shouts and cries of cats.

This strange phenomenon brought considerable losses to the Chihuo Village, which resulted in the Ancient Tree being under martial law. At this time, some people had to be dispatched to cooperate with the engineers to start new positioning and debugging.

These projects are progressing extremely slowly due to the regrowth of ancient trees.

In the midst of this busyness, Darren, who had been away for a long time, finally returned to the ancient tree.

Of the three tasks, only the task of defeating the group of Yaohuo dragons has not been completed.

Compared to the golden lions whose tracks are always being watched, and the sea dragons that have their own fixed living areas, the fire dragons that have a large territory and fly very fast have not been able to really find their nests until now, let alone find their leader.

Thinking that the logistical supplies were running out and not wanting to increase the difficulty of hunting, Darren and Mia discussed and decided to come back for supplies first, to see if the Ancient Tree Guild had any latest information on the group of Flame Dragons, and to see if the materials stripped from the golden lion were enough to make an equipment.

Yes, just one.

After all, the task of hunting golden lions is beyond the logistical support range of Detter and others, and the hunter's backpack cannot fit a golden lion.

Darren could only work with Feycat and, based on their own experience, strip the materials that were not destroyed in the battle. In the end, even Darren didn't know if what they got was enough to make a part.

As for the sea dragons, although the materials on those white sea dragons are obviously stronger than the materials of his own Yaohuo Dragon Set, he can also get logistical support from Detel.

But the battle was on a small island, and Darren's goal was only to repel the sea dragon leader rather than kill him.

Otherwise, with so many sea dragons in that position, they could kill him just by shearing them down with numbers.

After all, you can't expect these sea dragons to behave themselves and only come two or three at a time, right?
That’s dozens of them!

"Is this still the ancient tree? How did it become like this? Was it caused by some unknown ancient dragon?" At the bottom of the ancient tree, looking at the fresh soil that was turned outward and the ice-blue roots that were faintly shining through the cracks in the roots, Mia covered her mouth in surprise and subconsciously attributed this magical phenomenon to the ancient dragon.

Darren cautiously pulled out the Burning Wings and tried to pry open the thick tree roots.

"so hard!"

As soon as he started to work on it, he realized that the hardness of the wood exceeded that of ordinary ancient trees. However, under his extraordinary strength, he was still able to tear a hole in it.

However, when Darren saw the Taijing energy flowing inside the tree roots like flowing blood, his eyes still shrank slightly.

"Ah! So hot!"

Curious Mia reached out and touched the 'blood vessels' in the roots of the ancient tree. The scorching temperature made her quickly retract her fingers and blew hard twice.

"Hey, pay attention! The ancient tree is in the process of transformation, and the flowing energy is very hot!"

At this time, a voice came.

Darren looked up and saw an ancient tree hunter wearing leather armor with the aesthetic of the Blazing Village, which was unique to this part of the New World.

At this moment, the other party was riding a tamed thief dragon and walking down the passage.

"Eh? Isn't this the reserve leader of the fifth group? Have you finished your mission and returned?"

Darren is quite famous in the Ancient Tree Hunters Guild. After all, he is the one who has been received and rewarded by the Lord God. This honor makes the ancient tree hunters envious and jealous!

Darren nodded in response, but before he could say anything, Mia, who was standing beside him, asked a lot of questions, as if to serve as Darren's mouthpiece.

"Hey! It's nothing serious. It's just that the Lord God is finally transforming into the next form. As the residence of the Lord God, the ancient tree will naturally follow the Lord God's footsteps and transform towards a stronger direction. At this time every day, which lasts for about two hours, the Taijing energy flows rapidly in the ancient tree. The veins of the ancient tree will become very hot during these two hours, so you have to pay attention."

When the ancient tree hunter mentioned this, his face was filled with unconcealable pride.

Apparently he was one of the proponents of the theory of transmutation.
