Chapter 56 I Just Lacked Exposure Before

Hum~

The space beside Su Mubai twisted slightly as the mount inventory opened, and a miniature Frost Dragon flew out from the portal.

"Roar~"

Compared to before, its roar sounded noticeably immature, yet it still carried the majesty of a high-tier creature.

After being reset by the Myriad Realms Game, the Frost Dragon had shrunk considerably. Su Mubai estimated its length to be around three meters.

"Frost, come here."

Su Mubai called out softly as he watched the little Frost darting around like a wild horse in mid-air.

The next moment, the little guy landed on the ground, lowered its neck, and affectionately rubbed its head against Su Mubai's outstretched palm.

Clearly unable to speak yet, it could only emit soft hums to express its fondness for its master.

The aura emanating from Su Mubai made it naturally inclined to get close.

After shrinking overall, Frost's appearance had not changed much and still looked quite domineering.

Its blue-black skeleton radiated wisps of icy-blue chill, sending a chill down anyone's spine.

Although it was only at level 0, its combat power was already far superior to the Skeleton King Reggie of the past.

Such was the terrifying nature of high-tier undead creatures!

"Do I need to reach level 10 to ride it?"

Su Mubai gently stroked Frost's head, a slight smile playing on his lips as he muttered,

"I wonder if I can ride it directly like this?"

Frost tilted its head in confusion, a puzzled look in its eyes as it clearly failed to understand what its master intended to do.

Yet, the next instant, the soul fire within its pupils flared violently as a massive surge of power suddenly descended!

[Cataclysm]!

[Target: Frost]!

[Prompt: Please select the promotion tier, Tier 1 / Tier 2] (Click to view details)

Option 1: Ascend to the Mythic-grade mount [Frost Dragon King], zero consumption.

Option 2: Evolve to the Saint-Extinction-grade mount [Nirvana Dragon Emperor], consumes 10,000 Soul Crystals.

Hearing the system prompt, Su Mubai's face instantly lit up with wild elation.

"It really works!"

Frost had been summoned from the Undead Realm by the Frost Horn and was clearly treated as a distinct entity.

He had simply wanted to try his luck, but he managed to secure another free upgrade!

Fixing his gaze on the three words "Saint-Extinction-grade" in Option 2, Su Mubai's eyes narrowed.

Was this the tier that surpassed Mythic grade, existing on the same level as an SSS-grade talent?

However, he still hadn't figured out Soul Coins yet, let alone this newly appeared currency called Soul Crystals.

This item clearly possessed a far higher value than Soul Coins.

Given that there were only two options, Su Mubai was hardly surprised.

Cataclysm Tier 3 would undoubtedly exceed the restrictions of the God-Forbidden Land, just like when he had previously upgraded [Gaze of Death], making it impossible to trigger a cataclysm.

"Ascend to Tier 1."

For an entity that already possessed such a high initial grade, Su Mubai had no other choice but to take the free upgrade.

As he made his decision, Frost immediately felt a terrifying power descend upon it.

This force was rapidly enhancing its physical form!

Hum~

A dense black-and-blue radiance condensed into a giant cocoon of light, enveloping Frost's entire body.

Thump, thump!

Thump, thump!

...

Imbued with terrifying energy, the light cocoon pulsed continuously, its echoing sounds resounding throughout the Forgotten Land.

Even Roderick, who had his eyes closed while trying to sense Franklin's soul aura, turned his head in shock.

The next moment, he witnessed a sight he would never forget in this lifetime.

"Roar!!!"

Accompanied by a soul-piercing roar, the blue-black light cocoon instantly shattered.

Following that, Frost expanded to a length of over five meters, its twin wings snapping open as it soared straight into the upper air.

Its overall appearance had not changed drastically; rather, its bones had grown deeper in color, gleaming with a metallic luster, while the chill radiating from its body grew increasingly dense.

A heart-palpitating dragon might emanate outward, causing Roderick, a mere soul entity, to tremble uncontrollably as he stammered in a murmur:

"A dr... dragon-king-tier... Frost Dragon! How on earth did Lord Bai Ye manage this?"

Seemingly adapting to its new body, Frost executed a steep dive, plummeting straight down before leveling off near the ground in the blink of an eye.

Then, throwing its head back, its entire body flattened parallel to the earth, skimming across the ground at extreme speed.

As Frost's skeletal wings beat, wherever it flew instantly froze, leaving behind a long, frost-covered trail in its wake.

A moment later, Frost excitedly returned to Su Mubai's side, its wings folded against the ground and its head lowered. Opening its massive jaws, it unexpectedly spoke in human language:

"Thank you, Master, for elevating Frost's life tier!"

"Perform well, and there will be more opportunities like this in the future."

Su Mubai nodded slightly, immediately painting a large and alluring picture of the future for his very first employee.

"Yes, Master!"

Having just tasted the sweetness of success, Frost naturally believed it without a shadow of a doubt. Its eyes flashed with excitement as it repeatedly pledged its loyalty.

Its voice sounded young, but the immature undertones had completely vanished.

Su Mubai opened Frost's stats panel once more, eager to see just how powerful a Mythic-grade creature truly was.

[Size Alteration]: Can alter body size to a certain extent for convenience in battle or entering inaccessible areas.

!!!

So this is what a Mythic-grade creature looks like?!

Even a cheater like Su Mubai was stunned by Frost's brand-new stats panel.

Its attack power and other stats had massively increased tenfold, while its HP and mana had directly surged twentyfold!

Gazing at Frost's 240 million HP at level 0, Su Mubai suddenly found his previous concerns rather amusing.

His horizons had simply been too narrow, to the point where he actually thought having a shared health pool of 100 million at level 10 was too overpowered.

He had even worried about getting banned by the Myriad Realms Game.

Looking at it now, compared to a Mythic-grade creature like Frost, he was merely just starting out!

Naturally noticing that riding no longer had any level restrictions, Su Mubai turned his gaze toward Roderick and said, "Don't be nervous, continue with your sensing."

With that, Su Mubai tapped his toes and leapt directly onto Frost's back.

"Little guy, take me for a spin!"
