Failed Awakening, Summoning a Divine Beast, I Take Off On the Spot – Chapter 43

Ch 43: Diting Awakening

Just as the words fell, not far ahead, a silver light flickered faintly between the mottled shadows of the trees, suddenly attracting his attention.

Curious, Chu Qiu quickened his pace involuntarily and soon arrived at the place where the silver light was.

He saw a strange plant he had never seen before growing there. The leaves of the plant were like jade carvings, crystal clear.

Among the leaves, there was a silver fruit emitting an alluring fragrance, shimmering with a mysterious luster.

“This is… Silver Spirit Fruit?”

Chu Qiu stared at the silver fruit, and a gleam of light burst out in his eyes.

As an exceptionally precious medicinal material, the Silver Spirit Fruit can greatly enhance the summoner’s soul power. For him, it was more like seeing shining gold coins, full of temptation.

Just as he stretched out his little hand to make a fortune, preparing to pick it, a huge exotic beast, shaped like a lizard but far superior to a lizard, suddenly sprang out from the dense thickets not far away.

This Demonic Beast was covered in crimson scales, shimmering with a cold and dazzling metallic luster, and its eyes were like torches, revealing a palpitating killing intent and greed.

As it continuously spewed out scorching flames, the surrounding trees were instantly ignited, and the fire soared into the sky, with thick smoke billowing.

“This is… Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard?”

Chu Qiu looked at the aggressive Demonic Beast rushing over like a volcanic eruption, and a hint of unbelievable surprise flashed in his eyes.

As an extremely rare and powerful Demonic Beast, the Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard is said to only appear in the perilous and extremely dangerous wilderness outside the Fifth Defense Line.

Chu Qiu didn’t expect to encounter such a powerful existence in this remote corner. It was simply a cute little thing delivered to his door. It would be a waste not to take it.

“Roar!”

The Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard let out a deafening roar, echoing like thunder in the forest, and then pounced on Chu Qiu aggressively, its eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty cold light.

At the same time, Diting flashed, like a ghost, instantly behind it, and then its fist wind was fierce, punching its hard scales.

“Bang!”

With a loud noise, the Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard’s huge body was blasted out, heavily falling to the ground, dust flying, and the surrounding ground trembled for a while.

The Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard did not give up. With its thick skin and flesh, it quickly got up, its eyes staring at Diting.

A cold look flashed in Diting’s eyes, and it rushed up again. Back and forth, the two fought inextricably, the surrounding trees were affected by the battle, tilting and falling, and the fire soared into the sky.

After a fierce fight, Diting finally found an opportunity and bit ◈◈◈* on the Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard’s neck. Its sharp teeth instantly pierced the scales, greedily sucking its blood.

The light in the Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard’s eyes gradually disappeared, and its body slumped to the ground, completely losing its breath.

After sucking the blood of the Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard, Diting’s body trembled slightly, and then it fell into a coma.

Chu Qiu guessed that this should be a sign of Diting’s advancement, and it was about to usher in its first transformation.

Seeing this, he hurriedly took Diting back to the Contract Space, carefully avoided the surrounding flames and ruins, picked the precious Silver Spirit Fruit, and hurried towards the city.

When he returned to the city, night had already fallen, and the lights were on.

Chu Qiu went straight home. Xia Mo had already prepared the meal and was sitting quietly at the table waiting for him to return.

The steaming food on the table exuded an alluring fragrance, which complemented Xia Mo’s blooming smile, forming a warm and beautiful picture.

Looking at all this, a warm current surged in Chu Qiu’s heart, and all the fatigue and danger disappeared at this moment.

He gently touched Xia Mo’s head and said softly, “Eat earlier when it’s ready, no need to wait for me, just take care of yourself.”

After dinner, the two chatted by the new grave and old tomb in the moonlight.

Chu Qiu recounted his thrilling experiences outside. The dangerous and exciting battles made Xia Mo exclaim again and again, and the withered grass beside the grave also nodded frequently.

Back in the house, just as he tiredly lay down on the soft bed, preparing to enjoy this rare tranquility, Chu Qiu suddenly found that the Silver Spirit Fruit was missing.

He was shocked and quickly got up to look around in the Storage Space, but the Silver Spirit Fruit seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, with no trace at all.

“Being too far away from home will make you forget the taste of your hometown, killing too many people will make you forget your original intention. Diting, I’m back! Did you miss me?”

Just then, a cheap voice suddenly came from the Contract Space, with a bit of smugness.

“Still killing too many people… Haven’t you heard that a dog that bites doesn’t bark?”

Chu Qiu was overjoyed and summoned it from the Contract Space.

The Diting in front of him still maintained that playful dog nature, but a single horn shimmering with Netherworld Light had grown on its head at some point, looking majestic and mysterious.

Its figure had also become two meters tall, like a behemoth, its body entwined with Netherworld Flames.

Between the jumping flames, there was no trace of hair at all, only the blazing light and domineering posture remained.

“You’re the dog! How is it? Is Diting awesome?”

Diting glanced at Chu Qiu, shaking its head and showing off its horn triumphantly.

“Well, it does look like…”

Chu Qiu carefully looked at it, then nodded sincerely, a playful smile curling up at the corner of his mouth.

“Damn, let me rephrase, am I awesome?”

Diting seemed to feel the ambiguity in his words and hurriedly made up for it.

“I’m not looking, not interested.”

Chu Qiu replied seriously, but he couldn’t hide the smile in his eyes.

“You… forget it… getting angry will cause wrinkles.”

Diting helplessly sat down on the ground, spitting out a fruit pit that had been gnawed clean from its mouth.

“Dogs grow horns and horses wear rings, just showing off.”

Chu Qiu reached out and touched Diting’s huge body, feeling the warmth and power coming from it,

“Can you be smaller? If you accidentally set the house on fire in the middle of the night, we’ll really be done for.”

It shook its body, and suddenly shrank to the size of an ordinary dog, looking at the stunned Chu Qiu, grinning: “Normal operation!”

“Awesome!”

Chu Qiu had to admire this point. All he could change was his crotch, which was nothing compared to Diting’s free transformation.

He summoned the “Book of Life and Death”, gently clicked on “Creature Record”, and Diting’s information was impressively displayed in front of him. Chu Qiu carefully browsed it, his eyes flashing with excitement.

After reading it, he exclaimed, “Awesome! With this skill, Li Yunlong would dare to attack the county seat.”

Looking at the “Dragon Soul Awakening” skill that Diting had just comprehended, Chu Qiu couldn’t help but guess that it might have something to do with it drinking the blood of the Crimson Flame Dragon Lizard.

A bold idea suddenly sprouted in his heart, and he decided to hunt down more creatures with ancient bloodlines in the future.

Perhaps, in this way, he could further stimulate other dormant bloodlines in Diting’s body and allow it to master more incredible powers.
