Free Web NovelChapter 352: Chapter 55: I Am Friendly, Peaceful, and Happy to Communicate
But even so, it was still terrifyingly immense. The dragon’s head alone was far taller than most of the world’s buildings. Its coiled remains formed a mountain two to three thousand meters high.
Even the Transcendents, who had long known the size of such a Giant Beast and Demon God through their inherited knowledge, couldn’t help but feel captivated and overwhelmed by this power upon seeing it in person for the first time.
"This is horrifying! A Giant Dragon nearly seven thousand meters long... My god, if you do a quick calculation, its volume might be greater than all of humanity combined!"
"The guy above is right. Let’s do a rough calculation. Assume Earth has ten billion people, each weighing an average of a hundred kilograms. That adds up to just one billion tons—and that’s the total weight of all humanity, an already massive exaggeration."
"Exactly. And this Giant Dragon... even a simple length-times-width-times-height calculation gives it a volume of 1.8 billion cubic meters. Even if this Giant Dragon were as light as water, that would still be 1.8 billion tons! But in reality, it’s far more. Who knows what its body density was when it was alive?"
"Just its skeleton alone is far heavier than all of humanity combined!"
The raw data was the most terrifying thing of all. Faced with the remains of this Demon God, even a stoic Fusang corporate drone would probably wear the same shocked expression as when seeing their remaining mortgage balance.
At that moment, a huge question surfaced in the minds of anyone with half a brain.
Could Earth really have sustained such a massive creature? A single Giant Beast larger than ten billion humans combined... wouldn’t its mere breathing have created massive ocean whirlpools?
If it actually needed to eat, the entire planet’s ecosystem probably wouldn’t be enough for a few of its meals. If it wanted to, it could likely destroy all of Earth Civilization with ease. Forget anything else—all it would have to do is create a tsunami. That would surely be a great flood capable of completely destroying the current structure of human society.
And yet, a Demon God like this had died... died because the Spiritual Qi was cut off. But did all the Immortal Gods truly die? If the Immortal Gods were all this powerful, then where are they now?
And this was the governments’ objective: to make people ponder the power of the Immortal Gods, and to ponder their whereabouts. What was the ancient world of Earth truly like? Even something like a Space-Time Passage could now be explained in a way the public would find convincing, all thanks to the Dragon King’s Remains.
The Dragon’s skeleton, a relic from a desolate antiquity, became the catalyst for modern humanity to face reality.
At this very moment, Su Zhou stood in the deep sea, gazing from afar at the massive Dragon Bone. He observed the Dragon King’s skeleton—elegant, fluid, and exquisite, without the slightest damage. The Celestial Pool Dragon King’s Remains were like a work of art, lying prostrate on the deep seabed, yet not a speck of dust clung to them.
’So this... is a True Body!’
In that instant, Su Zhou had an epiphany. He had told Yara that he wanted to cultivate a True Body, but to be honest, he was just greedy. He coveted the combat power and survival capabilities of a True Body, but in reality, Su Zhou had never actually considered what his own True Body should be like.
The True Bodies of Demon Fiends were easy to cultivate because they were born with that information in their bloodline. The Dharma Bodies and Dharma Forms of humans were more difficult because they needed to outline an entire Extraordinary structure from scratch. But in the end, it was merely a matter of enlarging and refining one’s own physical body, so it wasn’t exceedingly difficult.
But Su Zhou was different. The Yara’s Blood he carried was the source of all Dragon Serpents. The power of a Great Being was directly reflected in him. If he were to cultivate a True Body, it would be the origin of an entirely new grand family of Dragon Serpents, the source of a completely new Extraordinary Species!
Some things feel superficial when you only read about them; you have to see and experience them to truly understand. For Su Zhou, the True Body was one such thing. Awed by the Celestial Pool Dragon King’s Remains, inspiration and ideas began to sprout in his mind. And so, he greedily observed, using his powerful Spiritual Vision to scan and analyze every secret of the other’s physical structure, parsing the Spiritual Qi structure within the Dragon Bone.
And then, while he was at it, he decided to break through, using the pressure of the deep sea to turn his muscles into Spiritual Qi Organs.
A surge of Spiritual Qi overflowed. This scene, naturally, was also captured by the program’s crew. It was yet another event that went beyond their plans. Even the host, who had seen it all, stammered a little: [Ah... the Dragon King’s Remains are so magnificent, truly astonishing. As we can see, Professor Su, our guide, was just moved by the grandeur of the Dragon’s skeleton and, inspired by it, has had a breakthrough... Let’s all congratulate him!]
"? You broke through again?"
"This is getting boring. I’m out, I’m out."
"You can just break through whenever you want even at the Extraordinary Tier? I saw the Dragon King’s Remains too! I was super shocked too! How come I didn’t break through?"
"Hello, sir. It appears you haven’t topped up your account."
"If I were a Dragon Blood Inheritor, would I look this pathetic?! [Image macro]"
Instantly, the shock from the Dragon King’s Remains abated slightly across the internet. Meanwhile, the upper echelons of the various nations’ Extraordinary Influences were forced to suffer another blow: ’How did he break through again? He’s already at the Extraordinary Tier! Everyone else is slowly and painstakingly nurturing their Spiritual Power Organs, so how is he still breaking through like it’s as easy as eating and drinking?’
’I’m begging you, Professor Su, please slow down! Wait for your students and colleagues!’
’I can’t take this anymore! How is anyone supposed to catch up?! I’m done with my seclusion. Tomorrow, I’m going to a coastal beach to sunbathe and relax!’
"We’ll continue to lay low and make no major moves... Forget it. We’re leaving the World Island and going to Africa." This was from a member of the Mysterious Organization, who had been observing in secret.
