Strange Voyage: Summoning the Fourth Disaster.

Chapter 684 Ancient Dragon Blood Coagulation
What are the requirements for using magical techniques?
Upon hearing Li Miao's words, the laughter that had just reached the shore abruptly ceased.

He quickly checked the usage requirements for [Lanloto's Dragon Starfall], and his expression soon froze.

Although the high mental energy requirement for this spell was within his expectations, he did indeed meet the standard.

However, apart from the numerical requirements, this technique has another rather unique and rigid requirement.

[One must possess the bloodline or aura of a dragon to learn this skill.]

This left those who went ashore somewhat dumbfounded.

"Dragon bloodline? Dragon aura? What the hell? Where am I supposed to find this?"

I was in a bit of a hurry when I got ashore.

After being given a live lesson by Lanloto during the battle, the powerful Dragon Starfall had already taken root in his mind.

If he couldn't learn such a technique, he would be driven mad with anger.

"What's the rush?" Seeing him scratching his head in a hurry, Li Miao calmly looked at the other dropped items: "Aren't there two more dropped items? Let's see what they're good for first."

Oh right, didn't I just get some [Ancient Dragon Blood Clot]?

It might be able to meet the learning requirements of this technique!
Upon hearing this, he calmed down a bit and quickly turned his attention to the remaining two dropped items.

【Ancient Dragon Blood Clot (Mark of the Long Night)】

[Type: consumables]

[Effect: After consumption, one gains a period of dragon aura, causing weaker life forms to fear and retreat. There is a small chance that it will cause the user's body to enter a period of uncontrollable berserk state. There is also a very small chance that it will cause changes to one's bloodline.]

[Note: The blood clotted from an ancient dragon at the moment of its death is most coveted by curse wielders and ritual creators, while ordinary users often have no choice but to ingest it in the crudest way possible... Even in death, the ancient dragon's power remains.]

Although it is called "blood clotting".

However, its appearance is more like a crystal-clear and beautiful light red gemstone, exuding a faint sense of pressure from an extremely powerful life form.

"I rely on!"

"Luckily, we have this thing. It must be a matching item for the Dragon Star Meteor."

"It looks like there's still a chance to obtain dragon bloodline?!"

"If I can't learn the Dragon Starfall technique, I really won't be able to sleep..."

Upon seeing the information about the fallen object, the anxiety that had been hanging over them immediately subsided after they reached the shore.

But he quickly realized that Li Miao also had a share in the dropped items, so he quickly grabbed Li Miao's leg and started licking his cheeks and begging.

"Alright, alright, it's yours now. Get off me, you're disgusting!"

Li Miao disgustedly shook it off her body, then picked up the corner key.

【Cornered Key (Mark of the Long Night)】

[Type: Special Item/Quest Item]

[Effect: Perhaps it can open a door or mechanism somewhere.]

[Note: This is a fragment of a dragon's horn that detached when the ancient dragon's projection died. It remains sturdy, but it has long since lost the power that belonged to the dragon.]

Quest items?

It seems there's more to the story about the Gu Long projection?
Or perhaps this is actually part of the long night's torch relay plan?

Li Miao pondered this in his heart.

The action of getting ashore suddenly interrupted his thoughts, and he quickly grabbed the other person's hand.

"What the hell are you doing?"

The guy who came ashore raised the Ancient Dragon Blood in his hand, as if he was planning to use it right now.

"Learn from Dragon Starfall!"

"Learning such a powerful offensive spell even a second later would be disrespectful to it!"

"Besides, we'll definitely have to fight the boss next, and learning this skill will make it easier for us."

He said as he went ashore.

His words were not reasonable either.

But after thinking about it, Li Miao still advised him not to learn it at this time: "The effects of the Ancient Dragon Blood Coagulation are not limited to one. It would be bad if something went wrong. There is no need to be in such a hurry."

“Besides, a spell of such high quality can’t be mastered in a short time.” Li Miao shook his head at him.

After getting ashore, I thought about it and calmed down, putting away the idea of ​​immediately starting to study.

"Alright, let's hurry up and go explore the Oasis of the Long Night we just visited."

"Wait a minute, let me search this place first, maybe there's a treasure chest."

Having said that, he quickly took action and began to thoroughly search the place.

Unfortunately, there's nothing noteworthy about the Ancient Dragon Projection's habitat.

After confirming that they had gained nothing, the two withdrew from the area through the connection between the altar and the rear.

When they returned to the original altar, the dragon scales were already broken.

I don't know if I'll be able to enter it again in the future. After all, if I find Durzakal's whereabouts in the future, I'll have to come back and tell the Ancient Dragon Projection.

However, Li Miao wasn't too worried. If there was really no other way, he could ask Lirmi.

The two, familiar with the route, returned to the cave exit and entered the "Oasis of the Long Night".

"Hmm... any act of attack will be punished by Oasis?"

What kind of sanctions are they?

"Miaozi, how about I hit you and see what happens?"

Upon reaching the shore, he suddenly became curious about the rules of this place and made a suggestion.

Upon hearing this, Li Miao readily agreed.

Although he really wanted to unleash a Meteorite Torrent right away after getting ashore, he decided against it and just gave Li Miao a gentle Starburst.

Just as it was about to touch Li Miao, a blurry black power rose up rapidly, directly repelling the starlight back.

After landing on the ancient dragon's night-scale robe, it was bounced off and exploded in the ground, creating a small crater.

Damn, it directly reflects damage...

Thankfully, I didn't use Mythos Torrent just now...

He secretly wiped the sweat from his brow after getting ashore.

"There really are sanctions."

"Then it seems we don't need to worry about these NPCs."

Li Miao felt that this must have been specially created by the Long Night Flame in the Divine Realm to allow the trial participants to communicate with each other.

With that in mind, his gaze quickly fell on the foot of the nearest mountain.

There was a campfire there, with smoke rising from it, and there seemed to be a figure sitting cross-legged inside.

After exchanging a glance, the two put away their weapons and staffs and slowly walked towards the campfire.

but.

Even before they got close, Li Miao couldn't help but frown.

"This person is dead."

He smelled the stench of a corpse.

Moreover, they were already so close, yet the other party didn't react at all.

Sure enough, when Li Miao got closer, he saw the other person's body, which had already begun to decompose.

"Damn..." He frowned and pinched his nose as he got ashore: "They've been dead for so long, how come the campfire is still burning?"

Li Miao ignored him and began to examine the camp and the corpse in detail.

The campsite was deserted, with only some leftover vegetable soup still cooking in the cooking pot over the campfire, indicating that the other party had clearly not starved to death.

The corpse was dressed in light warrior armor, which appeared to be made of blue wood, and next to him lay a chipped axe.

Something emanated a vague, black power, as if the Long Night Divine Realm was reminding Li Miao that he could pick it up and take it away.

First, there were the items that had fallen from the chest of the body.
