The Growth of a God

Chapter 358: Falling Dragon
"No! That's not a snake!"

"Is that a... dragon?"

As the camera gradually zoomed out, the huge shadow finally emerged from the sea.

It has a body as sinuous as a snake, and its scales reflect the sunlight at dusk in the darkness.

The four claws are not very sharp, but they feel more vigorous than those of ordinary reptiles.

But the most eye-catching thing is the pair of long forked horns growing on its head, which is as eye-catching as an elk.

The moment they saw the pair of long horns, all the creatures on the ship realized the other party's identity - this was a creature that inherited the dragon bloodline.

In the world of mountains and seas, the identity of dragon descendants is not special, and many creatures have dragon bloodline.

However, there are very few dragonborn with such eye-catching horns as this dragon.

"hold head high!"

It seemed that he noticed the drone's detection, or that he was simply venting his emotions...

The blue dragon emerged from the bottom of the sea and let out a long roar towards the sky, and huge waves instantly appeared on the entire sea surface.

Call the wind and rain, ride the waves.

A huge blue dragon emerged from the bottom of the sea, and its body expanded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths, the size of the blue dragon expanded by nearly half, and its originally dense scales became sparse.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.

Because Canglong has not activated the [Long Stairway to Godhood], the changes in its body must follow the physical rules of this world.

As a normal creature, even an epic creature, it is impossible for the body to expand by half in violation of the laws of physics.

"How is this possible? This is totally inconsistent with the law of conservation of mass!"

The cave-dwelling worm looked at this scene in disbelief, feeling that all the physics and biology knowledge he had learned before had been overturned.

"No, if you look carefully, it doesn't actually violate the law of conservation of mass..."

"The dragon's body mass did not increase out of thin air, but its size expanded like a balloon."

The ear mouse, who had a keener observation ability, spoke at this time and revealed the principle of the Canglong's body expansion.

"Balloon? Is its skin so resilient?"

"And why did it expand its size? And how did it do that?"

Faced with the burrowing worm's persistent question, no one present answered.

Because the blue dragon below is using its actions to tell everyone what it is doing.

"hold head high!"

It did not surface because it discovered the existence of a ship.

As if Canglong was completing some kind of ritual, he actually raised his head and looked towards the sky not far away.

There, dense dark clouds are gathering and dazzling lightning is taking shape.

Rumble…

When the first thunder sounded, Canglong swam towards the sea without hesitation.

It was also during this process that everyone was surprised to find that Canglong's body was actually gradually leaving the sea surface and "crawling" towards the air with difficulty.

"Flying? Is it a flying creature?"

"No abnormal magnetic field was detected. It is not the same species as the storm ray!"

Looking at the data transmitted by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, everyone on the ship was stunned again.

Only Kuilong seemed to have noticed something and looked at the horns of Canglong with some surprise.

......................................................................................................

"hold head high!"

It can be seen that this is the first time that this blue dragon has truly left the sea and is flying. From crawling to taking off, the blue dragon quickly adapted to its current state and excitedly arrived above the sea where thunder and lightning gathered.

Rumble…

Amid the increasingly violent storm, the blue dragon's horns suddenly burst into lightning.

Just like a lightning rod, the thunder in the sky instantly struck the horns of the blue dragon, causing it to let out a painful yet joyful dragon roar.

"hold head high!"

In an instant, Canglong's body expanded again.

At the same time, all the scales on the blue dragon's body opened up, and the powerful electric current seemed to be trapped in its body.

It just hovered in the air motionless until it completely absorbed the power of the lightning strike, then climbed higher into the sky again, shuttling between the clouds.

"Is it going through a tribulation?"

"The monitoring equipment did not detect any abnormal rules. It is not activating the 'Long Stairway to God'."

What happened at this moment has completely broken everyone's cognition and common sense.

There are indeed individuals in the Mountain and Sea Realm who can control thunder, but the vast majority of those individuals are deities, demigods who can distort the rules of the world by their own power.

"What a magical species..."

Just when everyone thought that Canglong was about to complete this transformation of life, a painful cry suddenly came from the sky.

"hold head high!"

Amidst the miserable dragon roar, a faint blue flame suddenly emerged from the tail of the blue dragon.

From afar, one could see the dark blue flame spreading rapidly, from the tail to the entire body of the Canglong in an instant.

The blue dragon howled and wailed, and began to fall.

Because all this happened so fast.

The people on the ship had no time to react and could only watch the blue dragon fall towards an uninhabited island not far away.

If you try to control thunder and lightning with a mortal body, this will be the result if you are not careful.

"That dragon...failed to survive the tribulation?"

After a moment of silence, the six-tailed fox spoke, breaking the eerie silence.

"What calamity can we survive?"

Staring at the six-tailed fox speechlessly, Kuilong said in a low voice.

"Don't you see it yet? This is the ecology of this kind of dragon creature."

"They need the power of thunder and lightning to transform, so whenever thunder and lightning gather in this area, these dragon creatures will be attracted."

"This blue dragon was obviously experiencing the baptism of lightning for the first time, so it was not even familiar with the most basic flying skills at the beginning."

After a slight pause, Kuilong continued to add.

"Also, look at the isolated island where the blue dragon fell. Doesn't it look like it was built up from the remains of countless dragon creatures?"

Upon hearing this, the skeleton people immediately adjusted the observation angle of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.

Then, a scene that shocked everyone present appeared.

With the all-round scanning of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.

The seemingly uninhabited island actually appeared to be a pile of bones.

"Could it be that...the isolated islands we saw along the way were formed by the 'fallen dragon'?"

When everyone present thought of the countless isolated islands they encountered on the way here, they couldn't help but feel a sense of horror.

If Kuilong's speculation is true, then the ecological history of this blue dragon can even be traced back to the time when the dragon civilization still existed.
