Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from the Black Myth

Chapter 54 Refining the Essence
"boom!"

A deafening roar echoed underwater, as if even time had stopped.

The golden cudgel in Lu Mingfei's hand cut through the void like lightning, drawing a perfect arc in the air, and with a whistling sound and unstoppable momentum, it accurately pierced through the dragon scales and hit Samson's spine.

The moment the tip of the stick touched the spine, a heart-pounding sound erupted. It was the sound of metal and bone colliding violently, penetrating the tranquility underwater and echoing in every corner of the Bronze City.

Samson's body trembled violently, and his entire body twisted due to the sudden pain. Then, a stream of black blood gushed out from the broken spine of the black dragon, quickly spreading underwater, dyeing the surrounding river water into a shocking turbid black.

This blood not only represents that Samson's life source is rapidly disappearing, but also symbolizes that his once loyal and invincible ruling power is being ruthlessly deprived.

Samson's golden eye was filled with reluctance and astonishment. His huge body struggled violently in the water, trying to use his remaining strength to resist this sudden fate. However, it was all in vain. As his spine broke, his body began to lose control, and his limbs weakly slapped the river water, making waves of dull sounds.

"My Lord... be careful..."

Although his throat could no longer make a deafening dragon roar, a faint and deep wave quietly spread underwater. Those were Samson's last words that he was unable to finish before his death.

Samson's once proud head drooped down powerlessly, the light in his golden eyes gradually dimmed until it was completely extinguished. His body slowly sank, and with endless regret and unwillingness, he fell to the ground of the bronze hall.

"call."

Lu Mingfei fell back to the ground, looking at the huge dragon body of Dragon Servant Samson falling down with satisfaction. The full force of the chopping stick made him feel extremely happy.

As usual, every time after defeating a demon king or leader, what Lu Mingfei looked forward to most was to loot the spoils from their corpses and obtain some precious materials for making weapons or armor.

So, Lu Mingfei looked at Samson's body and fell into deep thought. Although the strength of this dragon servant was not comparable to those powerful demon kings, looking at its huge dragon body, it should still have a lot of good treasures?

However, Lu Mingfei still shook his head. Because he had used the Water Avoidance Technique in succession, and then the Gathering and Dispersing Qi Technique, the Immobilization Technique, and the Fire Avoidance Technique, he now had less than 50% of the remaining mana in his body.

Although his mana will increase significantly after activating the blood explosion state, the Dragon King is probably still much stronger than this mere dragon servant, and the process of fighting with him will definitely consume more mana.

To be on the safe side and in order not to waste too much time and mana, Lu Mingfei decided to first find the Dragon King who had run away to an unknown place, and then clean up the battlefield after eliminating one of the four powerful monarchs.

Just as Lu Mingfei was about to turn around and leave, he seemed to catch a glimpse of something familiar on Samson's body from the corner of his eye. So he looked at it in disbelief, and then his eyes froze and his pupils trembled:
Lu Mingfei saw a wisp of purple flame burning in the water above Samson's huge dragon body!
In another world, Lu Mingfei had seen this kind of flame too many times. Isn't this the pure soul left behind by those powerful monsters after their death?

Lu Mingfei had never thought that in this world, after the death of these dragons, they would actually leave behind such spirits. However, he did not find any trace of spirits in the dragon-related books in Kassel Academy. "Brother, you are really extraordinary."

Lu Mingfei, who was staring at the purple fire spirit of Dragon Servant Samson in deep thought, was stunned. He looked to his side and saw his elusive brother Lu Mingze again.

However, Lu Mingfei was no longer surprised by Lu Mingze's mysterious appearances. He just asked curiously:
"Can you see that too?" He pointed at the blue fire spirit on the body of Dragon Servant Samson.

Lu Mingze nodded, then shook his head. “I can see it because I am now in a state of spiritual symbiosis with you, brother. If it were me in reality, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to see it. I guess no other being can see it either.”

"Am I the only one who can see the spirit of the dragon race?" Lu Mingfei thought. In other words, the spirit of Dragon Servant Samson appeared after his death, and the reason was related to him?

"Brother, do you know that the reason why dragons are far more powerful than humans is not only because of the power and authority they possess and their strong bodies, but also because dragons are a kind of creatures whose spirits are immortal even if their bodies die.

After a dragon dies, if its body is not seriously damaged, it will fall into a "deep sleep". It will be resurrected after accumulating enough energy to repair its body during the "dead sleep". If the dragon's body is seriously damaged, it will be reborn by forming a cocoon. Dragons can prepare "eggs" while alive so that they can be resurrected after death. That's why I said before that Nidhogg and the four monarchs who have long died will return to this world. "

After hearing Lu Mingze's explanation, Lu Mingfei seemed to understand something. If the being he killed left behind a spirit after death, it meant absolute death, a death that could never be revived.

“In other words, Samson, the Dragon Servant who could have been resurrected, has been completely killed by me both physically and mentally?” Lu Mingfei asked calmly.

Lu Mingze smiled and nodded affirmatively, "That's right. You are so powerful, brother. Under the absolute will of your stick, even the will of the immortal dragon race will die. Although the authority of a mere second-generation species is not worthy of brother, for now, it can be regarded as... somewhat useful, right?"

After Lu Mingze's words fell, Lu Mingfei's ears became quiet again. Without even turning his head to look, he knew that the elusive Lu Mingze had disappeared beside him again.

"Is it of some use...do I need you to tell me this, brother?"

Lu Mingfei muttered to himself, and with a light leap, he jumped onto the dead dragon body of Dragon Servant Samson and walked in front of the purple fire spirit. A golden light emerged, and the black and gold Shangqing treasure gourd appeared in his hand again.

Although it would waste time and mana, if he could refine the essence of Dragon Servant Samson into his gourd and obtain the authority of Dragon Servant Samson, it would definitely be of some help in his future battle against the Dragon King.

Lu Mingfei gently threw the Shangqing treasure gourd towards the purple fire, chanted a spell, and after the absorption technique took effect, the black gold gourd floated lightly beside the purple fire and began to slowly refine the dragon's essence.
