Dragon Who Controls Time

Ability

Garen widened his dragon eyes as he looked at the illusory river that was difficult to see with the naked eye and impossible to detect with magic.

He took a deep breath. The River of Time was mixed in the real ice river water and entered Garen’s body strand by strand. This time, he absorbed more River of Time than he had in the past four or five breaths.

His connection with the River of Time had become even closer as he grew.

“The effect of the acceleration of Time Manipulation has probably increased.”

Garen was not in a hurry to leave the dragon’s nest and silently explored his abilities after growing up.

Dragons did not directly learn their new abilities after waking up from their sleep. Instead, they needed a period of time to figure out their own state before they could completely master the power they had grown up with.

In the dragon’s nest, Garen excitedly began to study himself.

He liked this process of gradually lifting the veil of the unknown and seeing the truth bit by bit.

A day later, on the surface of the frozen ice river, the snowstorm still continued to fall, adding to the thickness of the snow on the surface of the ice river. If the blizzard weather continued, this snow would slowly turn into thicker ice.

Suddenly, the sound of the river flowing could be heard through the ice.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The hard ice seemed to have been struck by a heavy object. First, dense cracks suddenly appeared, then with a cracking sound, it shattered in an instant, and the ice and river water splashed everywhere.

A strong and mighty figure jumped out, and his dragon body was exposed to the heavy snow.

The snowflakes swirled and landed on Garen’s scales, but they could not stick to his body and quickly slid down.

Even in the dense and violent snow, Garen’s body was not stained with any snow.

Apart from understanding the new ability he had obtained after growing up, there was another reason why he left the nest.

The reason was very simple.

He was hungry.

Sleeping consumed all his nutrients. After figuring out his ability and regaining his senses, the current Garen was so hungry that he wanted to eat soil.

Fortunately, he had instructed the Northern Ice Spirits to catch four to five Giant Feet Yaks and freeze them before eating them after he woke up.

Garen usually did not want to eat this kind of stale meat. It did not taste good and the taste was unsatisfactory. Moreover, even if it was frozen, a lot of nutrients would still be lost.

However, he was so hungry that he did not care about this.

The Dragon’s Might shook, and a high and dignified dragon roar sounded. Garen ordered the Northern Ice Spirits to move the stored meat over.

When they saw Garen’s brand new appearance, the Northern Ice Spirits revealed shocked expressions, and the reverence in their eyes became stronger.

The reputation of a True Dragon had always been thunderous among all intelligent creatures. There were many legends about them, but the Northern Ice Spirits had never heard of a True Dragon that grew as quickly as their lord, especially a White Dragon.

Their master was powerful.

This was also something worth celebrating for the servants, especially the dragon blood servants.

The strength and potential of the dragon blood creatures would increase with their master.

Joy subconsciously appeared on the faces of the Northern Ice Spirits. At the same time, they offered respectful blessings and praise for Garen’s growth.

“Great Master, your wings will envelop the entire Northern Ice Fields.”

“Your name will resound throughout the Noah Continent. Everyone will know about you.”

“…” “…”

As Garen wolfed down his food, he listened to the exaggerated praise of the Northern Ice Spirit.

It had to be said that although it was a little awkward, it was still quite exciting to be praised like this.

After eating the food he had stored earlier, Garen looked at Roy Ice River and said in a low voice, “Reorganize a team and start hunting.”

Roy Ice River nodded and said happily, “Yes, Great Master.”

The weather of the snowstorm would not affect the Northern Ice Spirits. Their strength would instead increase in such weather. Although it was difficult for the Terror Lizards to help, it was enough to have the White Hounds.

Garen thought for a moment and said to Roy Ice River, “Show me your current strength and let me see how much you’ve improved.”

The difference in strength between the Northern Ice Spirits was not great. Roy Ice River could represent the strength of the other Northern Ice Spirits to a certain extent.

Roy Ice River nodded and his expression became serious.

In its mind, if the strength it displayed was too weak, it might attract Garen’s dissatisfaction.

Not every creature was qualified to be the servant of a dragon. As Garen had grown quickly, if they were always too weak and could not even satisfy his food needs, it was very likely that they would be abandoned in the end.

He raised his arms and grabbed his left arm with his right hand under Garen’s calm gaze. Then, he suddenly exerted strength.

Crack!

The Northern Ice Spirit pulled off his own arm. In an instant, it stretched and became a sharp ice crystal spear. It was cold and the tip was sharp.

As for the broken left arm, there were clusters of ice crystals growing and quickly regenerating. However, the color looked slightly dull, and the hardness was inferior to other body parts.

Immediately after, Roy Ice River held an ice crystal spear and charged at Garen.

On the way, he waved his ice crystal spear at the same time, triggering the surrounding elemental power and forming a storm of ice needles. Hundreds of ice needles enveloped Garen, and Roy Ice River followed closely behind.

Garen’s eyes revealed a trace of surprise.

He had not paid much attention to the change in the strength of the Northern Ice Spirit. At this moment, the other party had completely displayed it. Compared to the weak ice dagger previously, it was countless times stronger.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The ice needle storms landed on Garen’s body and shattered, not leaving a trace.

At the same time, Roy Ice River shouted and raised his arm like a bow. The ice crystal spear stabbed at Garen with a strong wind, but he stretched out his dragon claw and blocked it.

Crack!

With a crisp sound, the tip of the ice crystal spear cracked, but it did not directly break.

Roy Ice River felt that he had stabbed an iron wall and could not advance no matter how hard he tried. Moreover, dense cracks appeared on his arm because of the huge recoil.

“Master, this is already my strongest attack.”

Roy Ice River put down the ice crystal spear. His expression was slightly dim as he spoke to Garen nervously.

Garen raised his hand and saw a small white dot on the dragon claw scale. He recalled the elemental fluctuations brought about by the ice needle storm and felt that Roy Ice River’s strength had probably reached the level of a Tier 2 elementary mage.

However, there was still room for improvement.

True intelligent elemental lifeforms were not weaker than intermediate mages. With their current speed of improvement, they might reach the strength threshold of elemental lifeforms.

“It’s alright.”

Garen did not praise him or show any reproach. He only said this to Roy Ice River indifferently.

This made the nervous Roy Ice River’s heart skip a beat and he could not help but think the worst.

Garen thought for a moment and said to Roy Ice River, “In the future, focus your hunting on magic creatures or medium-sized beasts. I need higher-level food.”

It was not that he was tired of eating the Giant Feet Yak. This kind of animal was not afraid of the wind and snow. The meat was delicious and layered with fat. It was what Garen liked to eat.

However, as he grew this time, the ordinary beast meat was a little unable to provide Garen with enough nutrition.

He needed food with elemental energy flowing in his flesh and blood so that he could welcome his next growth faster.

Opposite him, Roy Ice River hurriedly nodded. In order to show his value, he said solemnly, “Master, don’t worry. Your loyal servants will definitely not disappoint you.”

Garen nodded slightly and flapped his dragon wings. His body disappeared into the vast snowstorm with the wind.

The food he had eaten just now had only relieved a portion of his hunger. He needed to personally hunt magical creatures to satisfy his growing need for food. At the same time, he needed to test his new abilities.
