Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow at the choice. It was not an easy choice as his choice would change his race as well. The reason he became what he was because he had a dragon bloodline, if he changed the bloodline, would it change his race again? That was the question in his head. He had three hearts right now, a dragon heart, a demon heart, and a high-human heart. If he got a new bloodline, would he get a new heart or his dragon heart would be replaced by the other's heart? That was a big issue for Tang Shaoyang.

[Upgrade Bloodline (2)] [A New Bloodline (5)]

He had two choices for upgrading the bloodline and five new bloodlines that were supposed to be stronger than his current bloodline. But he was concerned with the change within him if he took the new bloodline, and he was already comfortable with his dragon bloodline.

"Will my race change if I get a new bloodline?" He asked his spirits, of course, he directed the question to Vandir and Avyn who seemed to have more knowledge than everyone else. Avyn inherited her ancestor's memories, and Vandir looked like someone who knew a lot.

[I don't know. I don't have knowledge about that.] Avyn answered first.

[I see, that's what makes you different from a normal human. You have three hearts, even a demon heart, and yet you can use Heavenly Energy despite having a demon heart which is a rare case. This is interesting.] Vandir seemed to find out more about Tang Shaoyang from the conversation.

[I can't help because I don't know anything about your condition. My curiosity about you will advise you to take a new bloodline. Because I want to see what you will become if you replace your dragon bloodline. But my real answer is to choose an upgraded bloodline to be safe. Why do you want to risk it when you are about to fight a God Rank?]

[Get a new bloodline, a behemoth bloodline is much better than your lizard bloodline!] That came from Doombringer. The Calamity Behemoth seemed not afraid of Avyn to speak ill of a dragon. Even Vandir seemed to be cautious around Avyn.

Tang Shaoyang already made up his mind to choose an upgrade. He just wanted to know his spirits' opinion. He ignored Doombringer's remark as he chose to upgrade the bloodline.

[The Wicked Dragon] [Dragon King]

"Anyone know the difference between the two dragons?" Usually, he had an institution when he faced two choices, just like when he chose the Nine Demonic Gates and Nine Heavenly Gates. He had a feeling for the Nine Heavenly Gates more than the Nine Demonic Gates. But not this time, he did not have any particular feeling for both choices.

[Dragon King is one level below my ancestor, and this is the first time I hear about the Wicked Dragon.] Avyn, who was a dragon, did not know anything about the Wicked Dragon. That answer gave Tang Shaoyang an answer. His feelings told him to choose The Wicked Dragon. If Avyn with her ancestor's knowledge did not know anything about The Wicked Dragon, then The Wicked Dragon was a rare variant of a dragon. That was his process of thought even though he knew nothing about The Wicked Dragon. Especially when both options were equally powerful.

The other spirits had little knowledge about the dragon, and they did not say anything. Even Vandir said nothing when presented with both choices. It seemed the Death King did not have that deep knowledge about the dragon as well.

Tang Shaoyang followed his heart and chose The Wicked Dragon. As he chose The Wicked Dragon, the surroundings suddenly changed. He was floating in the air and turned dark as if night had come. Then he was faced with a dragon, a black dragon with three heads. He was facing the three heads, the bright crimson eyes looking at him curiously. He was surrounded by the three heads, scanning him from the top to the bottom as if he were being examined.

His body froze, it was the same feeling when he encountered his first dragon, Rumru the Black Dragon. The same feeling when he met Avyn in her world. The same feeling engulfed him, his heartbeat stopped for a moment before it raced up. That was just a brief image before he returned to the same dimension. His chest heaved up and down after the brief encounter with the three-headed dragon.

Then he felt an excruciating pain in his chest. His hand clutched on his chest as he fell to his knees. The vein popped out on his face as he held the pain. It was the same pain when he inherited the Black Dragon's bloodline from Rumru. He thought he could hold the pain, but he ended up screaming as his body fell to the side. He curled his body with his hand on his chest. Fortunately, it was much shorter compared to the time when he inherited the bloodline from Rumru. It was less than twenty minutes, and he was freed from the pain.

He breathed out roughly, sprawling on the ground, looking at the artificial sky. That was an awful experience as he barely felt any change within him.

[You have successfully upgraded your bloodline to The Wicked Dragon Bloodline]

[You have learned a new skill, Dark Poison Breath!]

[You have learned a new skill, Dark Lightning Breath!]

[You have learned a new skill, Wicked Domain!]

[You have learned a new skill, Dragon Growth (Passive)!]

[You have learned a new skill, ….]

Tang Shaoyang put away those notifications about the new skills. He learned around eleven skills after upgrading the bloodline. He was not in the right mind to check them one by one. The most noticeable gain was his attributes. He would get five thousand Attribute Points just from his new bloodline.

"Did you guys see what I just saw?" He asked the spirits. To his surprise, the spirit did not see the three-headed dragon image he had just seen.

[What are you talking about? You suddenly clutched your chest and fell? We did not see anything.] Vandir the Death King was the first one to reply.

Tang Shaoyang was surprised because he was sharing his vision with his spirits. This was the first time this happened. He did not even cut his vision from the spirit.

"I see, so it only appears for myself. I saw a three-headed dragon, and I think that dragon is The Wicked Dragon. Have any of you seen a three-headed dragon?" It was an intense pain and experience.

The answer was negative, none of his spirits had seen a three-headed dragon.

Tang Shaoyang calmed his breath and got up. He allocated all his attribute points, and he had now reached level 11782 after the trial. He lost track of the time from the time he fought the bonus wave boss monster. Then he looked around, realizing that all the dead bodies disappeared, including the boss monster.

"What is this? Does the System get rid of the dead bodies now?" He planned to summon a new spirit with a hundred waves of the beast and monster horde, thinking that he would get another Archaic Spirit. However, he realized that the dead bodies disappeared.

"No dead bodies and my class and talent also are not advancing." Tang Shaoyang did not immediately leave, waiting for the advancement notification. However, there was no notification from the class advancement or even talent advancement. After finishing allocating all Attribute Points, he left the trial dimension.

He returned to the same room, and he immediately dashed out of the room. The corridor was empty, and he suddenly felt anxious. If Zhang Mengyao had evacuated the people in the Smart Base, that meant the God Rank had descended. He did not look at the time because of how anxious he was.

[You have returned, Master~] Origin's cheerful voice rang in the corridor. The Smart Ai immediately detected its Master's return.

"Where's everyone else? What's the situation right now?" Tang Shaoyang asked as he headed toward the elevator.

[Situation?] Origin was confused for a moment, [The situation is fine for now. But the God Rank is about to descend. They come with a big sign in the sky.]

"Huh!? The God Rank is about to descend? Does that mean they haven't come yet?" Tang Shaoyang paused for a moment.

[Yes, but they will come soon. They make sure that we know they will come soon. If you look at the window, you will know what I mean.]

Tang Shaoyang followed the corridor and soon he arrived at the window. He finally understood what Origin meant by big sign. The sky was split with void filled the gap. It was similar to when the God Rank descended into the Dimensional Tower. He would not forget that moment.

"Since when?" He asked in a low voice.

[A day ago. The sky split around this time yesterday.]

"It's much slower compared to the time in the Dimensional Tower. What about the people? Have we evacuated them all?"

[We have evacuated the non-combatant personnel, and the Tarriors are ready for the battle!]

Tang Shaoyang was about to ask more, but he heard a series of footsteps from behind. He turned around to see Zhang Mengyao, Kang Xue, Li Na, and Liang Suyin running toward him. The four jumped together toward him.

He first caught Zhang Mengyao, then Liang Suyin took his left, Kang Xue took his right, and Li Na hopped on his back. At that moment, his worries and concerns disappeared.

After a full ten seconds, Zhang Mengyao spoke, "I would like to stay like this for a while, but we don't have time for this." Hearing that, the three women released their hugs before four of them pulled him in a hurry as if there was an emergency.
