Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 141

Chapter 141: Evolution Success: Flood Dragon Newt!

TL: Etude

As soon as the people walked up, they widened their eyes in astonishment and exclaimed.

Upon closer inspection, the area near the Dragon King Temple was filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

The surrounding trees had grown noticeably taller!

Even more surprising, many flowers were in bloom.

These flowers looked significantly larger than usual!

“Are these wild chrysanthemums as big as my palm?!”

Some noticed that the wild chrysanthemums on the ground around them were much larger than any they had ever seen before.

Have you ever seen chrysanthemums the size of your palm?!

“So many birds, so many butterflies.”

“These birds are huge too!”

“…”

Many people looked around the area, their eyes filled with astonishment.

It seemed inconceivable that the environment around Dragon Mountain had changed so dramatically.

“Huh, the water level in the Hualong Pond has risen quite a bit!”

As they continued walking upwards, they noticed the water level was almost reaching the bridge!

Just seeing this was enough to fill them with amazement.

“The koi seem to have grown too.”

“Could this really be the manifestation of the Dragon King’s spirit!?”

“I always said there was spiritual energy here. Every time I worship the Dragon King, my luck improves significantly!”

“…”

As the crowd reached the edge of the Hualong Pond, their astonishment grew.

The water level had risen so much that it was nearly covering the bridge!

After observing their surroundings, they didn’t hesitate any longer and rushed straight into the Dragon King Temple!

Everyone was vying for the first incense stick!

“I was here first!”

“Whoever’s quicker gets it, who cares about the rest!”

“Don’t push, don’t push!”

“…”

Soon, the Dragon King Temple was filled with people.

As sunlight bathed the land, more and more people arrived at the temple.

The surrounding area became lively.

Some children, who had come with their parents, started feeding bread crumbs to the koi.

“Phew. Finally, the evolution is complete.”

At the bottom of the Hualong Pond, Lin Hao slowly opened his eyes.

His pupils, like burning flames, scanned his surroundings.

Even his gaze was filled with an intense sense of pressure.

“My body…”

“It’s actually changed like this!?”

Fully awake, Lin Hao felt the changes in his body and was filled with shock.

His body had become more elongated, resembling a jiao, not just a newt!

“So this is a Flood Dragon Newt!?”

Feeling the changes in his body, Lin Hao instinctively wanted to swim but quickly stopped himself.

“Not good, there are too many people. I might be discovered.”

Through the water’s surface, he could clearly see many figures around the pond’s edge and on the stone bridge.

There were still many people who came to the Dragon King Temple to worship today.

“Right, let’s check my current status!”

This time, because he had enough experience points, he had evolved twice consecutively!

After successfully evolving the first time, he chose to continue evolving.

With a single thought, the system panel appeared before him.

Host: Lin Hao

Species: Single-Horned Fire Flood Dragon Newt

Level: 37

Body Length: 18.6 meters

Weight: 22,014 jin

Combat Power: 834

Skills: Super Berserk, Detection, Super Charge, Super Night Battle, Super Camouflage, Super Fire Scales, Powerful Bite, Powerful Tail Slap, Iron Scales

Divine Ability: Auspicious Guardian lv11

Evolution Points: 147,418/500,000

“Combat power, 834!”

Looking at his current combat power, Lin Hao’s eyes showed a hint of joy.

This increase in combat power was substantial!

Perhaps it was because he had now evolved into a Flood Dragon Newt!

“However, after changing the evolution direction, the evolution points required have increased significantly!”

To upgrade from level 35 to 36, it required 300,000 evolution points, but from level 36 to 37, it required 400,000 points!

It had increased by 100,000!

This was absolutely outrageous!

He had expected, based on previous trends, that the increase wouldn’t be too much, probably around 310,000 to 350,000 points.

“It must be because of the change in species that the required evolution points have increased.”

“Oh well, there’s no point in dwelling on it. There are now more ways to gain evolution points.”

Lin Hao quickly snapped out of his frustration.

After all, there were many mutant creatures he could devour.

Additionally, now that he could teleport to coastal areas, encountering mutant sea loaches would easily earn him over 200,000 evolution points, not to mention other possible mutant creatures!

“The current goal is to reach level 40 as soon as possible!”

He had a feeling that reaching level 40 would bring significant changes.

“Even after evolving into a Flood Dragon Newt, I still can’t talk! Damn it, am I destined to be mute?” Lin Hao couldn’t help but complain.

He could now make a strange shouting sound, but he still couldn’t produce human speech.

This made him quite frustrated.

“Right, the Fire Scale ability seems to have improved!”

Just as Lin Hao was about to close the system panel, he noticed the skills on the system panel had changed!

Fire Scales had evolved into Super Fire Scales!

“Let me see!”

After carefully examining the ability, Lin Hao discovered its new description:

Super Fire Scales: All scales emit high-temperature flames, continuing until the host is exhausted.

“Damn! No cooldown time!?”

Looking closely at the skill description, Lin Hao’s eyes were filled with even more shock!

No cooldown time at all!

Previously, Fire Scales had a brief activation period, lasting just over twenty seconds before forcibly cooling down for ten seconds. This sudden cooldown at critical moments had been quite frustrating.

But now, everything had changed!

“It means that as long as my body’s strength and stamina are sufficient, I can keep releasing it until my strength is depleted! This essentially means no cooldown time!”

Thinking about this, he became even more excited.

“Right, it’s not just this skill. It seems even the Divine Ability has changed!”

Lin Hao turned his attention to the Divine Ability section.

After not checking for a while, the skill level had reached eleven!

“The significant changes in the surroundings must be because the skill level has increased!”
