Reborn as a DRAGON

Chapter 283: Poison legacy



Chapter 283: Poison legacy

I felt a burning anger inside me as I struggled to keep my consciousness from slipping away. The forest had trapped me in its vines, trying to drain me of my mana. But I refused to succumb to its hold. With a sudden burst of energy, I let out a fierce roar, and my anger turned into a blazing fire that seemed to engulf my very being.

"You want to take my power? You dare challenge me? To challenge the might of a Dragon? Let me show you what true power is!"

As I reached out to my soul space, I could feel all of the elements seething in range in response to my emotions, they were restless, and seemed eager to fight by my side. One particular element, however, made me pause. The poison dragon responded to my call, and I knew at that moment what I had to do.

The dragon surged forth from within me, bursting out in a cloud of violet smoke that filled the air around me. The forest seemed to shudder with excitement at the sight of this new mana, but it didn't take long for it to quickly realized its mistake. It tried to drain the poison elements, but they were too potent, too deadly. How could they not be? For this was Amanita's legacy! An ancient Dragon that had slaughtered the Gods in heaps! What was a mere forest in the face of his power?

The trees began to wither and die, the branches and leaves turning brown and falling off. It was a beautiful sight to see the corrupted entity succumb to my poison elements. The vines that held me slowly began to wither away, releasing me from their grasp. I quickly stood up, feeling the power coursing through my veins.

"You are no match for me, you disgusting creature. I am a Dragon! And I will not be defeated so easily."

As I spoke, the forest let out a deafening scream, a sound that shook the very ground beneath me. I knew that the fight was not yet over. The forest's sentient form thrashed and writhed in agony, the trees shrieking and creaking as their corrupted essence was devoured by the poison dragon's toxic energy. As I stood there, a renewed sense of purpose filled me as I watched the forest writhe and decay before my very eyes.

Not wanting to let my advantage slip, with a fierce determination, I summoned forth both my water and earth magic, infusing it with the poison dragon's energy. Something that I hadn't done before, since it was hard controlling all three elements and fusing them with the poison one. This time, however, something deep inside my mind seemed to whisper to me that it would work. And so I trusted my instincts.

The result; the three elements blended together seamlessly, creating a powerful spell that I had never seen before. With no time to admire my work, I quickly unleashed it upon the corrupted forest.

It was a mesmerizing sight to behold. The spell created a thick, viscous liquid with a deep violet hue. It radiates a sickly glow, almost as if it was alive and pulsing with energy. As the spell spread, it left a trail of bubbling, hissing liquid in its wake, further corrupting the surrounding vegetation. The scent of decay and rot filled the air as the poison took hold, seeping into the roots of the ancient corrupted forest and slowly spreading throughout its entire being.

"You should have thought twice before trying to take my mana," I said with a smug grin, my eyes fixed on the dying forest.

"You see, the elements are not tools to be used as you please. They are a living force, and they answer to those they deem worthy," As I finished my monologue, I watched as the poison dragon continued to spread, consuming the forest with its toxic power. I could feel the ancient being's rage and fear, but I was not concerned.

The poison elements danced in a frenzied celebration as they devoured the once-mighty forest. The blend of water and earth mana had created a spell that was proving to be lethal to the ancient being. They tables turned and it was now Its life force that was quickly draining, as it struggled in vain to fight against the power of the poison mana.

As I watched from a safe distance, I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction wash over me. Just moments ago, this very same forest had almost claimed my life, and now it was being destroyed before my very eyes. The towering trees, once an imposing sight, now fell like dominoes, one after the other, as the ancient being slowly died.

Despite the lack of a dramatic finish, I was content with the result. It was a reminder of the raw power that I held within me, a power that had allowed me to defeat the forest and save myself from certain death. The poison elements continued to consume the remaining essence of the ancient monster, leaving nothing but a lifeless wasteland in its wake.

Soon, it was all over. I released a deep breath and watched as the poison elements finished their job. The last tree fell far away in the distance with a loud crash, and the forest was now a barren wasteland.

The poison had destroyed everything, and there was no sign of life. I took a step forward, carefully testing the ground, which was now soft and muddy, unable to hold my weight. The poison had seeped deep into the earth, contaminating everything in its path. I couldn't help but wonder what kind of consequences this might have in the future.

Another sigh escaped my mouth as I reached out to the elements urging them back inside my soul space, for a second I feared that they would not comply, but it seemed like my concerns were for naught. The elements converged into a large form of a hazy poison dragon that then rushed back into my soul space. A sigh of relief escaped my mouth.

With that out of the way, I turned a final gaze to the destruction left behind. The poison elements worked fast, very fast. The size of the forest was massive, and I was unable to fathom its entire reach, but I could sense that it had already died, and all of that in a matter of minutes. Just how strong was the poison element? I muttered inwardly.
