Panlong: Taotie bloodline, unlimited power growth!

Chapter 33 Raven's Decision!

Liuyun City.

Several days later, time passed.

The Duke of Barthélemy's Palace.

restaurant.

A huge crystal chandelier cast a soft glow.

The silver cutlery gleamed with a cold luster under the light.

The table was laden with a sumptuous feast.

Fresh snow rabbit meat, transported from the Monster Mountain Range, releases an enticing aroma after being cooked by a top chef.

Bluefin tuna from the East China Sea is sliced ​​into sashimi and arranged on crushed ice.

There's also the Violet Wine, a specialty of the Magnolia Empire, which sways gently in a crystal glass like a flowing ruby.

All of this demonstrates the Bartley family's current prominent status.

But the atmosphere at the dinner table was somewhat somber.

The only sound was the slight, crisp clinking of the cutlery against the porcelain plate.

"bite."

A crisp sound.

Doug Bartley put down his knife and fork.

He picked up a napkin, wiped his mouth, and looked at his son sitting across from him.

Raven is cutting a steak.

The movements were graceful and unhurried.

With each cut, the force was perfectly controlled, the cut beef had a clear texture, and not a drop of juice was wasted.

"When are you planning to leave?"

Doug's voice broke the silence.

Although it is a question, the tone is very confident.

Knowing son Moruo father.

These past few days, Raven has been staying at home every day, shopping with his sister and having tea with his mother.

He behaved like a perfect, obedient son.

But Doug could sense it.

This kid's heart has already flown away.

Especially Raven's eyes.

That wildness—the thirst for blood, the thirst for battle, the thirst to tear apart all obstacles—could not be hidden at all.

Or.

Raven didn't even bother to hide.

As Doug finished speaking...

Jenny, who was serving soup to Raven, trembled slightly.

A few drops of rich creamy mushroom soup splashed onto the pristine white tablecloth, like a few glaring stains.

She didn't say anything, but silently put down her spoon and turned to look at Raven.

Those gentle eyes were filled with reluctance, yet also with a sense of helplessness that they had already anticipated.

Avril also stopped chewing.

She had a piece of snow rabbit meat in her mouth, her cheeks bulging, like a frightened little hamster.

Only Raven.

He didn't pause for a moment while cutting the meat.

Put the last piece of steak on the plate into your mouth, chew it slowly, and swallow.

That ordinary meat tasted like wax to Raven.

No energy.

There are no fragments of profound laws.

It's just feed to fill their stomachs.

Raven picked up his glass, took a sip of the purplish-red liquid, and then looked up to meet his father's gaze.

Three days later.

His voice was flat.

It's as natural as saying the weather will be nice tomorrow.

"So fast?"

"They've only been back for a short time—"

Jenny couldn't help but speak, her voice trembling slightly.

As a mother, she didn't care how strong her son was.

Even though Raven is now a Saint-level expert, even stronger than his father.

But in Jenny's eyes, he is still that little boy who was just learning to walk.

"Mother."

Don't worry.

"I'm strong enough to kill ten dragons now."

Raven smiled.

The smile on his face instantly dispelled the coldness emanating from him.

Under the table.

Little White, who was gnawing on a bone, couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Can you please stop bringing up dragons when you're bragging?

Ten-headed dragons?

You could kill a hundred heads like it's nothing!

"Where are we going this time?"

Doug ignored the tender conversation between the mother and son.

Since we can't keep them, let's find out what's in the future.

This is how men communicate.

"The sea."

Raven uttered two words.

"Sea area?"

Doug frowned slightly.

As a high-ranking official in the empire, he naturally knew what the sea area meant.

Although the Yulan Continent is vast, it is but a drop in the ocean compared to the endless sea.

That place is off-limits to humans.

Storms, tsunamis, and countless deep-sea monsters.

Even a Saint-level expert is but a small boat on the vast ocean, which may capsize at any moment.

"Why do you want to go there?"

Doug stared into Raven's eyes.

He didn't believe that Raven was just there to see the sea view.

This kid always has a very strong sense of purpose when he does things.

Don't do useless work.

"because----"

"There's plenty of water there."

Upon hearing Doug's question.

A wicked smile crept across Raven's face.

"Cough cough cough!"

Avril nearly choked on the meat in her mouth and coughed violently.

Jenny quickly patted her daughter's back to help her catch her breath, while giving Raven a reproachful glare.

"Be serious!"

Doug's lips twitched slightly.

What kind of reason is that?

Much water?

Is it convenient to take a shower?

"Cultivation."

"I've reached a bottleneck."

"Ordinary trials are no longer meaningful to me."

"And in the sea, there are countless unknown powerful beings and countless challenges that surpass the limits."

"Only on the brink of life and death can that barrier be broken."

Raven dropped his joking expression.

These words were spoken with great righteousness and awe.

Even Raven himself almost believed it.

but.

That's all nonsense.

What do you mean by being on the verge of life and death?

What is transcending limits?

He went there specifically for the large portions and all-you-can-eat!

He, Raven Bartley, is twenty-one years old and at the pinnacle of the Sanctuary.

Possesses dual talents in fire and water elements.

The soul mutated into the shape of a sword, naturally aligned with the rules of destruction.

This configuration would be considered quite good in any dimension.

But Raven's greatest strength has never been these things.

It was the birthmark.

The Taotie pattern that has accompanied him since birth and continues to evolve as his strength increases!

Do not!

wrong!

It should now be called the Taotie Bloodline.

As long as you devour the flesh and blood of magical beasts, you can extract their energy essence.

more importantly.

It can devour sacred beasts and plunder the fragments of profound laws they comprehend!

In this world of Panlong, what does it take to become a god?

It's about comprehending the laws!

For ordinary people to comprehend the laws is like an old ox pulling a broken cart, grinding away bit by bit.

Those with good comprehension can master the basics in a few decades and become masters in a few hundred years.

Those with poor comprehension have remained stagnant for thousands of years.

But Raven is different.

He can eat it directly!

All it takes is to devour a sacred beast that has comprehended some profound mystery.

Raven would have a great chance to directly grasp the profound mysteries of the laws that the other party had comprehended.

This speed is hundreds or thousands of times faster than my own arduous cultivation.

however.

More than six months ago.

Raven wreaked havoc in the Warcraft Mountains.

He basically destroyed all the edible magical beasts in the Holy Land.

As a result, the sacred magical beasts deep in the Magical Beast Mountain Range move away as soon as they smell his scent.

The kind of thing where they carried a train through the night.

This has led to a serious problem – food shortages!

Especially ingredients that match Raven's attributes.

Fire-type Sacred Domain Monster?

Those guys like to stay in volcanic clusters or extremely hot places, scattered like stars in the sky.

Finding a fire-type holy domain magical beast would be incredibly time-consuming and exhausting.

Destruction type?

Monsters with destructive attributes are extremely rare.

Finding a Destruction-type Sacred Realm magical beast is like winning the lottery; you can't count on it at all.

All that's left is the water system.

The water system is great.

The ocean is all water.

The water is full of meat!

The deep sea is home to many aquatic sacred beasts.

In Raven's view.

These aquatic sacred beasts were the catalyst for his ascension to godhood.
