Chapter 1084 The Seventh
Attribute These past few days, Gerald had been feeling as if he was in a rather peculiar state. His perception of his surroundings had become incredibly heightened, and it seemed as though all the elements around him had grown much closer to him.
He had a feeling that his mastery of the attribute had become much stronger at this moment. He felt as if his body was filled with endless Vital Energy, inexhaustible and never-ending! He had an incredibly clear perception of everything around him. Even though he couldn’t open his eyes, he could still sense everything that was happening in his surroundings.
He really wanted to tell Valery to go and rest, assuring her that he was fine. He clearly heard the negotiation between Triston and Dante, and he thoroughly enjoyed Triston’s harsh scolding.
He saw Junior approaching with the people from the Soulreaper Sect and heard Dante’s helplessness. He had no respect for Dante’s choice, as he couldn’t believe that someone would hand over their own relatives for such baseless reasons. The Archaic Tribe… seemed to be just like that. Partners were partners; there were some people you could trust, but you couldn’t trust everyone completely. Mutual benefits could lead to cooperation, but that was just about it.
Upon seeing Anabel and Kristian step forward to protect Sylvie, risking their lives in the process, he felt extremely gratified. At the very least, these two people were worth befriending. Of course, he had also figured out quite a lot! After understanding why Sylvie had been hiding her true abilities all along, it became clear why she wanted to join the Night Watch.
She knew very well that once her attribute was exposed, the Eight Forces, including the Archaic Tribe, would not tolerate her existence. However, he was unaware of the reason behind this. Just as he couldn’t understand why the people of this world were determined to kill the Dragon Bone and Phoenix Bone.
He thought back to the first time he met Sylvie, when she took the initiative to be friendly and told him that they were the same kind of people. At that time, he didn’t feel much, but at this moment, he truly experienced it. He was furious, wishing he could go back in time and stab Junior with a knife! Then, he really wanted to wake up, so Gerald tried his best to open his eyes.
At this moment, he felt as if something within his body was awakening, and he could sense a tremendous transformation taking place within himself!
Standing beside him, Sylvie looked on in amazement as she noticed Gerald’s skin slowly swelling and then gradually receding, as if he was experiencing a rebirth of sorts. Then, a roar echoed through the void, and a golden light suddenly surged down, merging into Gerald’s body.
Valery, who had just fallen asleep nearby, suddenly woke up. She looked at Gerald and asked, “What’s going on?” Sylvie’s face lit up with a hint of a smile as she said, “Gerald… seems to be on the verge of a breakthrough.”
Dragon Shadow and Gerald merged together, and then his body slowly floated above the bed. A layer of skin peeled off from Gerald’s body. After this molting process, Gerald’s skin looked much smoother. His body surged with an immense vital energy, causing the entire shipping container to explode outward.
At a certain moment, the majestic Vital Energy began to gather around Gerald, and the world between heaven and earth returned to clarity. Gerald found himself once again suspended above his bed.
However, he didn’t open his eyes. Instead, he sat there with his eyes closed, legs crossed. He knew that he had broken through, completely stepping into the eternal level of Flame Decay.
After two consecutive life-and-death battles, he successfully broke through the final barrier, reaching this level even without the aid of Ingenious Needles. Of course, what shocked Gerald the most was that he suddenly discovered that he seemed to have acquired a seventh attribute.
After Gerald broke through to the level of Flame Decay, he didn’t experience any attribute awakening within himself. At that time, he was quite confused. Later on, he came to believe that his own attribute was the ability to absorb the attributes of others.
Alcoholic had mentioned to him that Dragon Bone possessed a total of seven attributes. However, after Gerald acquired six attributes, he just couldn’t seem to obtain the seventh attribute no matter what he tried.
