I will eventually become a god.

Chapter 279 Special Divinity, Changes of Dragon Horn, Destruction Flame Lightning Cannon

Amidst the tragic roar, another snake head was chopped off by the dark giant's sword.

The red-gold snake blood spread across the sky and sprayed onto the giant's body, corroding and melting its exquisite armor into dense pits.

The remaining snake head opened its big mouth with sharp fangs, and its throat swelled up like a balloon and spit towards the giant.

A huge amount of red-gold flame spewed out from its huge mouth.

The temperature was so unbelievably high that even Xue Jing's real body, which was floating in the distance, couldn't help but cover his face with his hands. He felt the temperature around him rising rapidly, and soon his skin felt like it was going to be burned.

Even he was like this at a distance, not to mention the pitch-black giant who was the direct target of the attack.

The giant melted at a rapid speed. The shadow flame material that made up its body was first melted into black juice and then evaporated. Soon, even the Qi clone in the 'cockpit' was turned into air and disappeared.

This was the first time the giant snake had used its ability to spit fire since the start of the battle, and the power was beyond Xue Jing's expectations.

If he were to be attacked by this move, the only way to save his life would be to hide in the body of the non-existent beast.

"Interesting... Legend has it that the Infinite Dragon Anandashesha can spit out a destructive flame that destroys everything on earth. This should be a low-profile version of that move..."

Xue Jing's eyes moved slightly as he looked at the giant snake which had become completely exhausted after spitting out fire and seemed to have consumed a lot of energy.

He raised his right hand to the side and spread out his palm. The Zhaoye Sword in the distance suddenly flew towards him at a high speed and stopped in front of Xue Jing. The handle of the sword was gently placed in his hand, which he held.

"You little snake, you really make me happy."

Xue Jing threw Xu Wenkui, who was held in his left hand, upwards. Then he flashed and appeared in front of the giant snake, which had only one head left, dragging along colorful flames.

Although the giant snake was listless, when it saw the enemy appear, it immediately raised its head, opened its mouth quickly, and swallowed Xue Jing into its mouth in a swish.

A few seconds later.

"Pfft-"

A wound suddenly appeared on the giant snake's neck, and silver arcs of electricity and pitch-black flames overflowed from the wound.

A painful roar came from the giant snake's mouth, and its whole body twisted in pain in the air.

Afterwards, cut-like wounds continued to appear on its body, the second, the third, the fourth...

The wounds appeared deeper and deeper until they spread to the tail of the snake. There were more than thirty wounds on the giant snake, almost cutting its body into more than thirty pieces.

Until the last wound appeared, a dark figure holding a long knife broke out from the wound, with red-gold blood dripping from his whole body.

The giant snake was no longer struggling or making any sound. It was just dying and falling to the ground unable to move.

Xue Jing quickly dived towards the falling giant snake, with the cold light of Zhaoye flashing in his hand. He slashed the center of the remaining snake head with a knife, cutting open its mouth. The knife light continued to spread deeper, cutting its brain and body...

Finally, he cut all the way to the snake's tail, splitting the entire snake in half from the middle, revealing its red-gold internal cross-section of flesh and internal organs.

[Kill special creatures with divinity, divinity +2882]

[After absorbing special divine power, the 'Dragon Horn' has undergone some changes]

"Ok?"

Xue Jing reached out and grabbed Xu Wenkui who just fell down, and looked at the prompt on the panel with a raised eyebrow.

More than 2,800 points of divinity were within his expectations. This giant snake gave him a similar feeling to the real dragon cub in the border area, and that cub provided him with more than 2,500 points of divinity.

But the following hint...is something I have never seen before.

This is the first time that a divine skill has undergone special changes, such as [Visualization] becoming [Visualization·Truth] and [Use Strength] becoming [Hidden Dragon Strength].

"【Dragon Horn】was activated after killing the pure-blooded dragon in the border area... Although they are both dragons and snakes, this giant snake and the pure-blooded dragon don't seem to be from the same family. One is more Eastern and the other is more Western..."

"I originally thought that if there was an unexpected gain, it would be the activation of a new divine skill, but I didn't expect that it would actually be linked to the Dragon Horn..."

Xue Jing was very interested and skipped over the thousands of experience points he would gain from conventional and extraordinary skills. He immediately had an idea and decided to use the dragon horn.

The sound of crackling electricity rang out on his forehead, and a pair of silver-white lightning dragon horns grew out of his head.

In an instant, enlightenment came to his mind, and he instinctively understood a new use of the dragon horn.

As he chanted, the dragon horn on his forehead suddenly changed.

The color of the lightning dragon horn, which was flashing with silver-white arcs, gradually darkened and turned into red-gold. The flashing arcs also had some traces of burning flames.

The overall shape has also changed. It is no longer in the shape of lightning, but a beautiful red-gold dragon horn with a spiral shape and slight curve.

Xue Jing extended his index finger and pointed condescendingly at the giant snake's body that was cut in half.

The red-gold lightning burning with flames condensed and compressed at his fingertips, emitting a blazing light of fire and thunder.

"boom--!!"

The red-gold light cannon emitted a loud noise that was a mixture of thunder and explosion, and headed towards the giant snake's corpse at an incredible speed.

“Huahuahuahua——”

It seemed like it was burning or struck by lightning. The giant snake's body quickly turned black, shattered, and turned into ashes under the coverage of the red-gold light cannon.

The strong killing power made Xue Jing's eyes widen slightly in surprise.

"Oh my god... this is so powerful."

It is extremely pure, without any special effects, it is simply the ability to maximize the destructive power.

"Destruction Flame Thunder."

Xue Jing stretched out his palm and looked down at the red-gold flames flowing between his five fingers.

(Prototype: Elden Ring, Belle's Flame Thunder, picture in↓)
This is the new ability that Dragon Horn possesses after absorbing the special divinity of the giant snake...or rather, the new change.

The silver-white dragon thunder that can affect gravity cannot be used at the same time. It can only be used separately by changing the shape and color of the dragon horns on the head. In terms of pure instantaneous lethality, this newly obtained Destruction Flame Thunder is probably even better than the Lv10 [Shadow Flame].

After all, Shadow Flame has many functions and is not a skill that specializes in lethality.

"It's cruel, I like it!"

Xue Jing clenched his fist with satisfaction and dispersed the flames and thunder on his palm.

I didn't expect that the skill [Dragon Horn] has such a trick... In this case, the priority of improving this skill will have to be raised.

This skill, which can increase the upper limit of one's own attack power, has extremely high benefits when upgraded.

However, for now, the main focus is still on [Twins]. It is important to create a divine incarnation first, which will be a qualitative change.

He glanced at the current amount of divinity held on the panel.

[Possess divinity: 5052]

The harvest was quite good. In this battle, nearly four thousand divinities were obtained, and the total number once again exceeded five thousand.

"Next..."

Xue Jing called back the Zhaoye Knife and the Forgotten Giant Sword, letting them pierce into the void and be swallowed by the invisible non-existent beast.

Then, holding the naked Xu Wenkui in his hand, he flew towards the direction of the Dragon Core Fighter.

……

In the air more than sixty kilometers away from the battlefield.

In the cabin, Ning Yuantai paced back and forth anxiously, muttering to himself.

"Believe in Brother Xue, Brother Xue is invincible..."

But precisely because he trusted Xue Jing too much, he couldn't help but get anxious when he thought about the person who ambushed him, and even Xue Jing himself seriously said the three words "very dangerous".

"Commander Ning, something's happening!"

Suddenly, a member of the White Crow in tactical uniform trotted up to Ning Yuantai and reported loudly.

Ning Yuantai glanced at him upon hearing this and was about to speak when there was a sudden, dull knock on the door from outside the cabin.

He turned his head and looked through the porthole, and saw Xue Jing floating outside the hidden gate and nodded at him.

"Brother Xue!!"

Ning Yuantai was overjoyed and said quickly: "Open the hatch quickly!!"

The cabin door was opened with a hiss, and Xue Jing flew into the cabin lightly, landed on his toes, threw Xu Wenkui in his hands to the ground, and reached out to dust off his slightly dirty clothes.

"Brother Xue, what's the situation? Are you okay?"

Ning Yuantai asked hurriedly.

Xue Jing smiled and said, "It's okay, it's been resolved."

Ning Yuantai breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest: "That's good, that's good."

Although this place is very far away from the battlefield, he can still see many black, white, and red lights and shadows, as well as loud noises coming here, and can vaguely feel the intensity of the battle.

Fortunately, Brother Xue is worthy of being Brother Xue... He is invincible as always and returns triumphantly.

"Who on earth dares to ambush and intercept you... Hmm? Who is this person?"

Ning Yuantai glanced at Xu Wenkui lying on the ground and asked with a frown.

Xue Jing glanced at him and said casually, "The ones who ambushed me were the Yuancheng Dragon Cult and...Xu Mude."

Ning Yuantai's expression changed: "Xu Mude!?"

Xue Jing's expression did not change, he just continued: "I don't know the specific situation...but according to this person."

He pointed at Xu Wenkui lying on the ground.

"She admitted that she was sent by Xu Mude and wanted to steal the 'Original Wind of All Things' from me."

"Before that, Xu Mude did come to me and said he wanted to buy the Wind of Origin of All Things, but I didn't agree. This thing was specifically requested by my boss Wu."

Ning Yuantai was overwhelmed by what he heard.

Before this, he had greeted Xu Mude in order to bring Xue Jing to visit Xu’s Biology... Could this matter have something to do with him as well?

Could it be that he was the one who harmed Brother Xue?
The wind that gave rise to all things, did Xu Mude dare to snatch the things that Miss Wu wanted?
What the hell is going on…

"Then Brother Xue, what should we do now?"

Ning Yuantai shook his head and looked at Xue Jing in confusion.

Xue Jing sat on the chair, crossed his arms, and said calmly, "I've been bullied. If I just let it go, wouldn't I be considered an easy target? Where will my boss Wu's face be?"

"Go back to Yuancheng. I have to do something at Xu's Biology."

Ning Yuantai's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

The "doing something" that Xue Jing mentioned did not really mean doing something... He had completely understood this.

Now, things might get out of hand...

But he didn't dare to refuse and quickly agreed.

……
