Why must the devil be Defeated? Chapter 817

Glati and Bretti were simultaneously taken aback. Why are we given this strange thing? Why does it require sticking out our heads? The two Dragon Girls instantly raised many questions, almost asking, "Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?" Shane lazily chose not to explain, directly reaching out to press the dog heads... dragon heads of these two Dragon Girls. "What are you doing!?" Upon seeing this, Glati and Bretti were both shocked and enraged. Shock was because they hadn't been able to react before Shane touched them. The anger was due to this person's rudeness. Having lived for nearly ten thousand years, neither Dragon Girl had ever been petted by a man. As proud members of the Dragon Race, how could they be petted like dogs? This was absolutely intolerable! So, a terrifying aura instinctively rose from the two Dragon Girls. But at this moment, warm magic power flooded down from above, like a comforting river, pouring into Glati and Bretti's bodies. The Dragon Girls' bodies trembled, involuntarily letting out a perfectly comfortable moan. That moan struck straight to the heart, filled with ambiguous allure. Shane barely managed to maintain his serious expression. Lilith blinked several times, looking confused. If it had been in normal circumstances, the two Dragon Girls would have died of shame and anger. The first of the Dragon Race, founders of the Dragon Race, originally the top aides under Dragon Demon Ai, first and second-ranked superpowers in the Dragon Demon Territory! With levels reaching ninety-nine, just one step away from the Limit Level, from ancient times they were admired and feared, objects of great reverence. Being proud Dragon Species, in such a situation to make such embarrassed sounds, how could they not feel mortified? However, the Dragon Girls now had no thought to feel mortified. "This... this is...!?" The two only felt immense magic power flowing into their bodies, harmonizing with them, assimilating into their bodies and transforming into pure strength. With the gentle infusion of magic power, their power, which had hit a bottleneck for countless years, began to slowly grow. This surprised them greatly. "How about now? Do you believe it?" Shane smiled smugly while preparing to withdraw his hand. However, Glati and Bretti instinctively cried out in a hurry. This simultaneous shout caused Shane's hand to reflexively twist, gliding over their faces. Immediately, the smooth, warm feeling of their delicate skin transmitted to Shane's hand. This wasn't the critical point. The critical point was that the magic power Shane was transmitting hadn't ceased. Two streams of warm magic power entered the Dragon Girls' cheeks, causing their bodies to tremble continuously, exclamations incessant, even their breathing becoming heavy. Listening to those sounds and observing the situation, Shane lost his composure, quickly retracting his hand, retreating several steps. The retreat of warm magic power made the two Dragon Girls involuntarily sigh in regret. But then, they were astonishingly staring at Shane. "What was that just now...?" Glati and Bretti were extremely surprised. "Ahem." Shane awkwardly coughed to suppress the embarrassment and pretended to be calm, saying: "That was the Skill [Tame]." [Tame] — Using magic power in a specific way to achieve the effect and purpose of taming Demons, essentially adjusting magic power to a form easily absorbed by Demons, allowing them to increase strength upon absorption, thereby gaining the Demon's recognition and making it follow the tamer's commands. Since Demons can directly absorb magic power to enhance their strength, they can be tamed this way. Shane used this ability, supplying magic power to You Lin, allowing You Lin to grow and ultimately become a Limit Level presence. Now, Shane revealed this skill to Glati and Bretti to show them how he nurtured You Lin. "Impossible!" Glati flatly denied: "That couldn't be the ability of [Tame]!" "That's right!" Bretti retorted, "How could mere [Tame] cultivate a Limit Level Dragon Species? And how could it affect even us who have already transformed into human form?" ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel·fire.net This isn't just them being argumentative. In fact, relying solely on the ability of [Tame], it's indeed challenging to cultivate a Limit Level Dragon Species. [Tame] merely converts magic power into a form that's easier for demons to absorb, but it ultimately has its limits. To cultivate a Limit Level demon, even possessing a maxed-out [Tame] skill theoretically requires an astonishing amount of magic power. That level of magic power is beyond individual possession; even large-scale Magic Sources cannot provide such an immense amount. This is only in theory. In reality, after reaching Legendary Level, the closer one gets to the life limit, the less magic power the demon can directly absorb. In other words, even with a maxed-out [Tame] skill that converts one's magic power into a form easiest for demons to absorb, at the barrier of life's limit, even if they absorb a massive amount of magic power, the portion that can be transformed into strength is minimal. Furthermore, the magic power an individual can possess is unlikely to meet the needs of demons at such a level. The idea of cultivating a Limit Level demon using the [Tame] skill is purely imaginative. For these reasons, demons that can be tamed generally stop short of Legendary Level. Those at Legendary Level and above who have been tamed are a rare sight. If [Tame] could cultivate powerful Dragon Species indefinitely, the Dragon Race would have long used this method to train their successors. Thus, Shane's claim was immediately refuted by Glati and Bretti. Moreover, if it's only the [Tame] skill, it cannot affect beings like Glati and Bretti. After all, both have shed their demon forms to become human, and in terms of races, they are no longer demons but genuine members of the Demon Clan, having already lost the trait of using magic power absorption to enhance strength. In summary, both decisively rejected Shane's claim without even considering it. "I haven't finished yet." Shane rolled his eyes and said, "It is indeed the ability of [Tame], but it has been merged and sublimated into another skill due to special reasons." What Shane referred to was naturally the Heavenly Destiny Skill, [Li Jian Heavenly Destiny]. After using the Unique Skill of [Fate] to merge and sublimate [Tame] into [Li Jian Heavenly Destiny], Shane gained absolute control over magic power. This controlability enabled Shane to more boldly adjust and convert his own magic power, further enhancing its absorption potential, allowing higher-level demons and other beings to absorb it. Yulin's breakthrough to Limit Level happened after Shane fused [Li Jian Heavenly Destiny]. Before fusing [Li Jian Heavenly Destiny], Shane relied on his overwhelming magic power, using maxed-out [Tame] to feed magic power to Yulin, enabling her to absorb ample magic even when she was only Level 99. However, even then, Yulin showed no signs of advancing to Limit Level. Under those circumstances, even if Shane continued to funnel large amounts of magic power, it might have taken over ten years to give Yulin a chance to break through to Limit Level. And that was only a possible opportunity. As this indicates, even with a maxed-out [Tame] skill, it's difficult to create a Limit Level Dragon solely with that skill. It wasn't until [Li Jian Heavenly Destiny] was born and upgraded to the max by Shane, who also experienced massive magic power growth through leveling up and other factors, that Yulin genuinely acquired the future of being cultivated to Limit Level. As for Glati and Bretti, although they have transformed from demons to members of the Demon Clan, if Shane uses absolute magic power control to transform enough magic to stimulate their past demon instincts, reviving their lost demon traits, he can enable them to absorb his magic power and enhance their strength. This approach would undoubtedly consume magic power dramatically. Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve the effect of stimulating demon traits. But as Shane is now a drastically different person, already reaching Level 95... Before reaching Legendary Level, at just Level 77, Shane's magic power was enough to alarm the entire Royal Capital, and now at Level 95, it goes without saying how powerful his magic power is. "In this world, I'm probably the only one capable of this." Shane said with a cheerful smile. "Now you can believe it, right?" Upon hearing this, both Glati and Bretti fell silent. Yet, at the same time, both directed an intensely burning gaze at Shane. That gaze was as if they intended to devour Shane whole. Shane's expression stiffened, suddenly feeling an uneasy premonition. In fact, he was right. "You can really cultivate a Limit Level Dragon Species..." "And it even works on us who have shed our demon forms..." Glati and Bretti mumbled, their eyes growing even more fervent. That behavior would be familiar to anyone experienced in taming demons. Because it's the typical behavior of tamed demons. At this point, Shane understood the situation he was caught in. It was evident he was being targeted. "...That's that, I have some matters to attend to, I'll take my leave now." Hugging Lilith, Shane swiftly turned around. Simultaneously, two delicate hands pressed onto his shoulders from both sides. The intense stares made Shane's back break out in a sweat. "Give us another Buff!" In unison, they called sweetly, and Shane seemingly foresaw a future of being drained dry.
