CHAPTER 758: CHAPTER 469: FLASH SKY WINGS

Dragon Blood had few items available to expand its strange properties, priority undoubtedly went to Doomsday.

Although Qing Hong was somewhat unhappy with Ji Xinghuo’s arrangements, and Jiu You also expressed its discontent from within the Supreme Dark Magic Ball, they could only comply.

There were two Mirage Spirit Pearls.

One was for Doomsday’s use, and the remaining one was naturally kept for himself.

Ji Xinghuo took out both Mirage Spirit Pearls, one of which floated in front of Doomsday. A drop of dragon blood seeped out from a gap in the scales on its forehead, staining the Mirage Spirit Pearl, which quickly turned moon-white into silver-white radiance and merged into its head.

This was the method taught by Cang Ya.

In the interface of Wanxiang Star Pupil, the information of Doomsday changed.

[Fusion Times: 1]

Ji Xinghuo also slit his arm, dripping blood onto the Mirage Spirit Pearl, quickly absorbing the strange energy contained in the pearl, gaining a fusion time.

He then took out two Alien Species, named "Flash Sky Wings" and "Crystal Scale."

"You choose one."

Doomsday’s eyes moved back and forth between the two Alien Species, seeming to have a hard time deciding. After hesitating for a few minutes, it chose the Flash Sky Wings.

It was a Dragon Vein Species from the Sky Feather Dragon.

Its form was a feather that flickered with light, but a closer look revealed that it was different from the feathers of birds, being very hard, like a blade.

"Not changing?" Ji Xinghuo asked again.

Annihilation Dragon nodded firmly.

Ji Xinghuo took the Alien Species and flew up, landing on its back. He inserted the hard feather into the center point where its wings connected with its dragon body, from the gap in the scales merging into the titanium alloy-colored skin beneath, entering the flesh.

The Alien Species began to fuse, and Ji Xinghuo was not at all worried about failure, as the Ancestor Dragon Vein ensured a one hundred percent success rate.

Gradually, the wings of Doomsday underwent a transformation.

Its dragon wings were narrow and long, with a wingspan nearly as long as its body, about twenty meters. When it flapped them, it would bring up a dark golden glow, like a dance of starlight trails in the darkness, extremely magnificent.

As the fusion progressed, the dark golden dragon wings became more transparent, as if entirely made of energy, transforming from solid to ethereal.

Bright light bands extended from the dragon wings, resembling ethereal feathers.

The entire dragon wings also became wider.

The wings now appeared significantly more agile and more powerful.

At this moment, the Ability information of Doomsday refreshed, indicating the Alien Species had successfully fused, Ji Xinghuo opened it to check.

[Ability: Flash Sky Wings (First Level 1/317)]

Boom...

Doomsday vibrated its dragon wings vigorously, the light erupting from them and it instantly shot forward, creating a white wave several hundred meters long on the sea surface behind it, with dazzling dark golden light bands slowly dispersing in the air.

"Such a fast speed!" Ji Xinghuo’s eyes brightened.

The speed of Annihilation Dragon was originally very fast, not much inferior to those Dragon Species specialized in flying.

Now that it had fused with Flash Sky Wings, the flying speed of Doomsday had at least doubled.

And that was just at the first level.

The principle of Flash Sky Wings was to accelerate using pulses of Light Energy, not only enhancing the regular flying speed but also allowing for bursts of extremely high sprint speed over short distances through consuming large amounts of Star Power Physical Ability, even comparable to Instantaneous Movement.

The wings also made Doomsday’s movements more agile, adding composure and autonomy to its flying posture, roaming the skies.

Rumble, rumble...

Doomsday continuously vibrated its dragon wings, soaring straight into the sky, executing various complicated flying maneuvers aloft.

Rolling, sharp turns, reversing!

Drifting leaf, large loop, progressing spiral, Cobra maneuver etc., like a high-performance biological fighter jet.

Woosh!

A gust of wind came, and Doomsday swooped in front of Ji Xinghuo and stopped, its dragon eyes full of pride and eagerness.

It wanted to upgrade the Flash Sky Wings.

Ji Xinghuo already had this plan in mind. He landed on the back of Annihilation Dragon, pressing his hand on its dragon scales. Qing Hong also flew over, shrinking into his arms, both riding on the dragon’s back, which Doomsday did not object to.

"Forward!"

Ji Xinghuo commanded.

Doomsday immediately flapped its wings and flew up, rising like a rocket and swiftly reaching above the clouds, speeding forward in the direction specified by Ji Xinghuo.

The blue sea and sky, the wild winds howling.

Ji Xinghuo, feeling the exhilarating flight of Annihilation Dragon, began to invest Spiritual Origin Ability to upgrade its Ability.

At present, he had just over 510,000 points of Spiritual Origin Ability.

He was not stingy, pouring in 317 points, 1327 points, 4787 points, 17117 points, 71777 points of Spiritual Origin Ability in a few minutes, quickly elevating the Flash Sky Wings of Doomsday to (Sixth Level 1/277747).

With each increase in level, the flying speed of Doomsday accelerated further.

"Continue."

Ji Xinghuo straightforwardly invested over 270,000 Spiritual Origin Ability, elevating the Flash Sky Wings to (Seventh Level 1/877567).

Boom!

A sound like a massive explosion.

The flying speed of Doomsday broke through 1024 meters per second, entering Star Realm Supersonic.

Its dragon wings became brighter, those dark golden light bands emitting pulse waves, with diamond-shaped Mach rings appearing in their trails.

Ji Xinghuo nearly got thrown off the dragon’s back, fortunate to have prepared himself to sit tight. The air felt like a wall smacking into him head-on, but it was blocked by a layer of light barrier that appeared around Doomsday, perfectly aerodynamic in layout, minimizing wind resistance.

At the Seventh Level, Flash Sky Wings still was a Transcendent Ability.

Looking at the nearly 880,000 points upgrade requirement, Ji Xinghuo couldn’t help but think, if he raised it one more level, it should advance.

Ability advancement was unpredictable and unfathomable.

The Flash Sky Wings were no exception.

This ability came from the Sky Feather Dragon, but in the records, there seemed to be no higher ability for Flash Sky Wings; however, on the Doomsday ability interface, another ability belonging to the Sky Feather Dragon appeared.

[Ability: Flashing (Fifth Level 1/66029)]

"A new ability!"

"It must be caused by the awakening of the Ancestor Dragon Vein," Ji Xinghuo immediately realized what had happened. After upgrading the Ancestor Dragon Vein to the fourth level, it was no longer limited to evolution and metamorphosis; any growth or increase in strength could potentially awaken Dragon Vein Ability.

Flashing was also a displacement ability, closely related to the Flash Sky Wings.

When the Flash Sky Wings upgraded, it awakened.

"Use it."

Ji Xinghuo patted Doomsday’s back, indicating it to demonstrate the new ability. Doomsday’s dragon wings glowed, instantly transporting Ji Xinghuo and Qing Hong a great distance. He blinked as he found himself in the sky ahead.

Glancing back, he estimated they had moved about 240 meters, farther than a sixth-level Instantaneous Movement.

Flashing was slightly slower than Instantaneous Movement.

However, Flashing had an advantage, just like Instant Step as it did not involve space travel, it could be used outside the Star Realm without being restricted by Space Lockdown. But it also had a drawback—it couldn’t pass through barriers like walls.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

Doomsday kept flashing while flying, continuing over forty times until exhausted and had to slow down.

It was clear that it greatly enjoyed its new ability.

"I’ll upgrade you again."

With 140,000 Spiritual Origin Ability points left, Ji Xinghuo invested over 60,000 points, upgrading Doomsday’s Flashing to (Sixth Level 1/236699). A sixth-level Flashing could move about 300 meters, which was quite substantial.

With the remaining over 80,000 Spiritual Origin Ability points, Ji Xinghuo didn’t rush to use them up but instead considered his own fusion opportunities.

He did not have any Alien Species to fuse with.

All he could do was copy from Doomsday. The "Dragon Vein User" had already been upgraded to the sixth level and could copy six abilities.

Ji Xinghuo reviewed Doomsday’s ability information, which, apart from the Ancestor Dragon Vein, included Annihilation Light, Titanium Cobalt Magnet Body, Ethereal Exquisite Heart, Ionizing Flame, Shocking Dragon Roar, Flash Sky Wings, and Flashing.

The first choice was definitely "Annihilation Light," the signature ability of the Annihilation Dragon, immensely powerful.

Next was the Ethereal Exquisite Heart.

This was also a Star Fall Ability, its effect better than Ether Resonance, enhancing cultivation speed and the upper limit of Star Power, reducing the Star Power consumption of all abilities. Once amplified by the Ancestor Dragon Vein, the benefits were endless.

The recently fused Flash Sky Wings were also excellent. Ji Xinghuo sensed its immense potential. If it could advance, there might be a pleasant surprise.

But Flash Sky Wings had a drawback.

It required wings to be effective, and he did not possess any ability to condense wings, so the acceleration effect might be discounted.

Ji Xinghuo suddenly shook his head.

"If only I could fuse another Alien Coexistence, upgrade it a few more times, I could share all of Doomsday’s abilities with me."

He had thought of this method while in Titanium Ring City.

For others, upgrading Alien Coexistence was extremely difficult; it couldn’t be exercised, only slowly endured over time or relied on drawing lots during evolution.

But for him, it was easy.

Moreover, the shared abilities’ levels were synchronized; as he upgraded, Doomsday’s abilities would also upgrade, potentially saving a massive amount of Spiritual Origin Ability.

He immediately went and bought an Alien Coexistence.

However, the Wanxiang Star Pupil gave a fusion success rate of only 3%!

This baffled Ji Xinghuo, as the Alien Coexistence was identical to the one bought in Olympia. Initially, the fusion success rate was 97%, inexplicably dropping to 3%. Thinking there was a problem with the Alien Species, he bought two more Alien Coexistence.

But the fusion success rates were all 3%, with no changes.

Ji Xinghuo suspected that the fusion of a certain Alien Species had caused a severe conflict with Alien Coexistence, leading to the significant drop in success rate.

It was probably the Ancestor Dragon Vein!

"Sigh..."

Ji Xinghuo felt helpless.

He held an Alien Coexistence Alien Species in his hand, and the information interface popped up, still showing a 3% fusion success rate.

"Anyway, failing doesn’t matter, I’ll try several times."

Ji Xinghuo made a small cut on the back of his hand, allowing the black gelatinous Alien Species to merge into his bloodstream. At first, there was a slight sensation, but after about fifteen seconds, a sudden intense pain surged, making his whole body feel very uncomfortable—undeniably, the fusion had failed.

This was his first time experiencing a fusion failure with an Alien Species. Fortunately, his strength was already strong enough to endure the negative effects soon passing.

He continued trying to fuse the second Alien Coexistence. Just as he got hold of it, he discovered that the fusion success rate had dropped to 2%, immediately furrowing his brows.

"Why did it drop again?"

Ji Xinghuo scratched his head, "Never mind, carry on!"

But soon, the second Alien Coexistence also failed, and the success rate dropped to 1%, which was frustrating.

When the third Alien Coexistence also failed, Ji Xinghuo’s face darkened, and the interface showed a fusion success rate of zero.

"Damn!"

Ji Xinghuo was at a loss for words, completely discouraged.

After a long consideration, he decided to put it aside for now. The Annihilation Light was definitely to be copied. Since he couldn’t achieve that through Alien Coexistence, he would hold off, as the fusion times were too precious to be reserved for an emergency.

Currently, Doomsday’s Annihilation Light was (Third Level 1/63377).

With the remaining Spiritual Origin Ability, just enough for one level, he invested it. Amidst the excited roar of Doomsday, the Annihilation Light upgraded to (Fourth Level 1/317077).

A dark gold light ball brewed in Doomsday’s mouth.

A destructive aura spread.

"Don’t waste it," Ji Xinghuo quickly stopped it. "Later, we need to delve 400,000 kilometers into the Sea Abyss. We don’t know how many monsters we’ll encounter on the way. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to fight, so don’t waste your energy here."
