Chapter 190: Chapter 190
"It seems, this should do." Du You looked at the dead big dog on the ground.
Initially, when he arrived at this Derived World, his main goal was to find a suitable material to create his Summoned Beast, which is most suitable to serve as a meat shield.
His direct combat ability was too weak. Having a meat shield in front could let him bring out more of his power. But he had not been able to find a suitable one all this while.
The only suitable one was the Gray Bear he had encountered earlier. But the Gray Bear was not killed by him alone, so it couldn’t be used to create the Dark Summoned Beast, hence he could only give it up.
But now, he seemed to have a better choice. This big dog in front of him, although it didn’t look big, was a being that was almost about to grow into a Heavenly Disaster Beast. If this guy could be made into his summoned beast, it would definitely qualify. Even if it is not good at being a meat shield, it can greatly increase his strength.
Deciding to give it a try, Du You opened the panel and began testing.
"What? To create a summoned beast, it requires 8,000 crystal coins, why so many, this is clearly the best material. Wait, could it be that because the material’s grade is too high, it is not suitable."
Du You seemed to understand a problem. The level of this guy was too high, so to make it into his summoned beast, it required crystal coins for origin adjustment and level suppression, which consumed even more. Previously, the levels were quite low, so to increase the level and star level would require the absorption of crystal coins, this time it was the other way round.
It seemed that the closer it was to him, the better, but this material was just too good, and Du You couldn’t bear to give it up.
The so-called Heavenly Disaster Beast, in this world, is the most famous monster and also the source of various disasters. Once it becomes his summoned beast, it will be a source of disaster for enemies.
Du You didn’t want to give up such a useful thing.
"Right, what if adding some elements will reduce the difficulty."
Du You takes out the Heart of the Dried Corpse, this thing that still emits a strange aura, and just took it out for testing, the consumption started to recalculate. "Over three thousand crystal coins, huh? It’s very risky."
Du You looked at his white crystal coins, unsure if he had enough. This calculation is after all just a rough figure, as long as he doesn’t encounter any accidents, there shouldn’t be too big of a change.
But he was afraid if anything were to go wrong, if he fails, then his white crystal coins would have been wasted. It’s not that he couldn’t succeed in Shaping, but after success, the star level might decrease, just like his Cursed Crow King.
"Let’s take a gamble, if I really fail, then wait until I upgrade to the second tier and figure out a way to strengthen it."
Du You’s adventuring spirit once again took over, the calculation was not a problem, even if there was an error, it wouldn’t be too large.
Upon this thought, Du You started to take action. Dipping in the red blood energy on the ground, Du You quickly drew a simple but very eerie giant array on the ground.
After it was completed, Du You started to draw strange runes all over the big black dog. These were the means for a Dark Shaper to transform a summoned beast. Without these, it was also possible to directly use the strength of the rule for transformation, but that required additional crystal coins, which the currently crystal-coin-deficient Du You would certainly not choose to do.
"This skin is really hard."
After the runes were written, Du You let Xiaozi rip open the belly of the big black dog, but no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t do it.
On this Heavenly Disaster Beast Reservist that had reached either the 30th or 31st level, the hardness of the skin, even in death, neither Xiaozi nor Du You could do anything about it.
It seemed the normal method of installing the Heart of the Dried Corpse was not feasible.
With no other choice, Du You had to stuff the Heart of the Dried Corpse into the big black dog’s mouth. The consumption calculated by the panel changed, and consumption was going to increase. Fortunately, it still didn’t exceed his stockpile.
"Come on Xiaozi, we’re getting ready to start."
Upon receiving the orders, Xiaozi flapped her wings and flew up, then grabbed the big black dog and hoisted it up, struggling to place it in the center of the array on the ground. Just this short distance exhausted Xiaozi.
After all, it was a giant beast, even despite not knowing why its size had shrunken quite a bit, a Giant Beast was still quite heavy. After all this was done, Du You immediately checked the array on the ground, as well as the runes on the big black dog’s body.
Most of them were not destroyed. Those that were, he had to wipe off and redraw. After wasting quite a bit of time, the array was finally ready. "Everything is ready, let’s start."
Du You activated the transformation ritual, a large number of crystal coins continually appeared from his personal space and started to burn.
The crystal coins were composed of the World Origin Force, and the burning was the utilisation of the World Origin Force. This jack-of-all-trades energy could be used for anything, otherwise, it wouldn’t possibly become the most important resource of these professionals.
The crystal coins continued to burn, and Du You was in pain, but the resources prepared for so long were meant to be used at this time, right? The body of the big black dog on the ground also began to transform bit by bit. Dıscover more novels at 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅✦𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾✦𝗇𝖾𝗍
The body that was originally pitch black gradually became even blacker, and dark gas filled the air.
Seeing that the time was about right, Du You gestured and took out a Dark Element Stone, throwing it into the array.
The next moment, the Dark Element Stone melted and went into the body of the big black dog. At this point, how could you tell whether this big black dog was a dog or not, this was all a huge piece of black char, just with a little shape.
Just at this moment, the Heart of the Dried Corpse inside the big black dog began to work. The Heart of the Dried Corpse moved bit by bit, finally seeping into the heart of the big black dog, merging as one.
The Heart of the Dried Corpse that had replaced the original heart throbbed lightly, the blood in the big black dog’s body started to flow back, then a special power was released, gradually reshaping the whole body.
The black color on the big black dog’s body gradually dimmed, its body slowly decayed bit by bit. But at the same time it was also gradually recovering.
After an unknown amount of time, the big black dog turned into a big gray dog, looking gray and dull. Its skin was dry and it didn’t have a single hair. The skeletal structure and muscle structure of its body had clearly undergone some changes.
Looking at it, it was stronger, but it was also somewhat stiff. Its aura was constantly declining, constantly adjusting, undergoing a very strange evolution. Even the surrounding red energy and the fragmentary flesh membrane were absorbed by the big black dog. Du You had no clue what kind of thing he had made.
