Chapter 1789: Chapter 1789

The delirious Black Dragon attacked with even more ferocity. Furthermore, in this state, the Black Dragon seemed to blend more seamlessly with its surroundings, gradually increasing its attack power.

Unfortunately, the Black Dragon was already at the mid-tier of eight, so even with environmental advantages, the boost wasn’t substantial.

This increase was entirely within Du You’s control and did not affect him in the slightest.

Lin Yucha unleashed the Magic Gold Deadly Poison without using other attacks. The poison resistance of the Divine Dragon was extremely high, but the Magic Gold Deadly Poison was unique, with a bizarre toxicity that directly reduced poison resistance.

So even this Divine Dragon could not remain immune. Gradually, the Divine Dragon’s power waned, becoming increasingly weak.

Meanwhile, Lin Yushi continually unleashed Devouring Vine to entangle the Divine Dragon. Her thunder and lightning power wasn’t very effective since the opponent had the Thunder and Lightning Attribute, making it impossible to paralyze them, hence resorting to this tactic.

Furthermore, she constantly attacked the opponent’s Light Ball with Shock Arrows, serving as a form of defense to complement Du You. Killing the mad creature in front of them wasn’t difficult, but capturing it posed some challenges.

The confrontation dragged on for over half a day in this battle state. The effects of the Magic Gold Deadly Poison grew stronger. Though the Black Dragon was completely furious, it was now less than half its previous strength. If this continued, once the poison fully took effect, the Divine Dragon could be killed. With such a power disparity, controlling the damage was difficult.

Du You realized it was time to act. With a thought, countless vines erupted from the ground.

This was the move of the Dark Vine Demon Emperor. Then Du You’s Devouring Swamp joined in, and together with the Dark Vine Demon Emperor, they wrapped up the fallen Black Dragon instantly.

The Black Dragon roared and struggled incessantly, attempting to break free from the restraints.

But this struggle was futile. Already weaker than its opponent and significantly weakened, in mere moments, the Divine Dragon was tightly wrapped in layers, leaving only its head exposed.

Even its head was tightly bound, leaving it unable to make a sound, let alone launch an attack.

The Divine Dragon’s struggle was still evident; its eyes were lit with divine light, and thunder rumbled from its sharp horns. Even in this state, as long as it wasn’t sealed completely, it could still launch attacks, showcasing the power of a tier-eight entity.

Capturing a tier-eight entity alive was a magnificent feat for Du You.

"Manage the toxicity, then we’ll begin."

Lin Yucha nodded and landed on the Black Dragon’s head. Thunder and lightning encircled her, but they were blocked by her Divine Yarn Clothes, leaving her unaffected. Lin Yucha also controlled the opponent’s toxicity, preventing further intensification.

Meanwhile, Du You landed beside the Black Dragon, holding in his hand a ring the size of a finger who knows when.

The Beast Taming Ring was obtained when Du You killed a tier-eight Demon, but he initially thought it was useless.

This item was designed to tame wild beasts, with a level cap up to tier eight, but it required the beast to be untamed and wild. If the beast possessed high intelligence and formed its own soul, control was impossible.

Du You always considered this item wasteful because anything reaching tier eight would have its own soul.

However, today, Du You discovered that this supposedly useless item now served a purpose. The alien beasts here were particularly unusual, created by the unique environment of Earth. Strong in power yet lacking a true soul. Without a soul, not even a core origin, only a forcibly condensed special crystal.

Such creatures could exert full power within Earth but were ineffective once off-world.

This tier-eight creature was found by Du You to be gradually detaching from this environment. Although still a beast, it might eventually separate and cultivate its own power.

On Earth, it served as a tier-eight guardian. Perhaps one day, it might become a genuine tier-eight powerhouse, a true Divine Dragon with power transcending worlds.

But for now, it was nice to have it as a guard dog.

Du You activated the Beast Taming Ring and placed it on the Black Dragon’s forehead amidst its constant struggles. The ring dissolved like liquid, permeating into the beast’s mind.

Soon after, Du You noticed that even with its mouth bound, the creature let out pained cries. The muffled roars indicated how much suffering the Black Dragon was enduring.

But what did that have to do with him? Du You placed his hand on the Black Dragon’s head, continuously infusing his own power. This taming process required him to continually supply his own strength; otherwise, it would certainly fail.

Du You realized that this consumption was several times greater than simply killing the creature. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾·𝗇𝖾𝗍

His divine power flowed endlessly, absorbed by the Beast Taming Ring. Du You knew that once the ring and the Black Dragon’s soul fully merged, it would assist in the formation of a true soul.

At that point, the Black Dragon would be akin to a bubble, becoming his completely subservient pet.

Furthermore, by then, the Black Dragon would gradually regain its sanity, transitioning into a true Divine Beast rather than a mindless beast. Unexpectedly, this process took three whole days to complete.

Were it not for his skill in restoring Dark Yuan Power, a regular person wouldn’t have endured, potentially prolonging the process even further. The potential and talent of this Divine Dragon truly impressed. Upon completion of taming, Du You found himself involuntarily exhaling. "Finally done. This creature really was a tough one to handle."

The Beast Taming Ring fully merged with the Black Dragon’s soul, its madness slowly dissipating. The restored Black Dragon looked at Du You with incredibly complex eyes.

This was its master, the one who had pulled it from chaos while simultaneously taking its freedom. The Black Dragon was uncertain of its feelings toward Du You, but it knew that as long as Du You lived, rebellion was impossible. Even if Du You died one day, his commands would persist.

"Very well, from now on, you are my pet. Once this task is complete, you’ll come back with me."
