Chapter 29 - Chapter 29: The Might of the Nine-Revolution Elixir: Di Tian's Enhanced Prowess

"Yes," Di Tian affirmed resolutely, bracing himself for the ensuing transformation and the challenges that lay ahead. He knew that his determination and the power of the Nine Revolutions Elixir were his best chances at defeating the Giant Earth Bear and surviving this treacherous battle.

Almost immediately, he felt an intense surge of power coursing through his veins, electrifying every fiber of his being. The effects of the elixir were instantaneous, and his senses heightened to an astonishing degree.

As the potent effects of the 'Nine-Revolution Elixir' coursed through Di Tian's veins, he marvelled at the newfound power surging within him. Every cell in his body seemed to have awakened, pulsating with energy like an exhilarating stimulant. A sense of invincibility washed over him, imbuing him with a surge of confidence and strength.

However, swiftly intervened, tempering Di Tian's elation with a cautionary reminder. [Don't be too hasty to celebrate, master,] the wise voice echoed in his mind, breaking his thought process. [The feeling of invincibility you experience now is merely an illusion crafted by the elixir. Instead of true vitality, it's more accurate to say that your very essence is being coerced into producing double its normal output. Your body is under constant strain, and when the elixir's effects wane, you will feel the weight of the burden it placed on you.]

Di Tian absorbed the wise counsel, understanding that the euphoria he felt was a fleeting façade. The Nine-Revolution Elixir demanded a toll, borrowing strength from his very being and exacting its price later in the form of pain and weakness. It was a dangerous gamble, and he realized that the battle against the Giant Earth Bear had to be swift and decisive to avoid paying a steep cost for this borrowed power.

"Thank you for the warning, ," Di Tian acknowledged, a determined glint in his eyes. "I shall bear this in mind and make the most of this power while it lasts."

With his newfound vigor and strength, he stood resolute, ready to face the ferocious Giant Earth Bear once more. The taste of invincibility lingered on his tongue, tempting him to overreach, but he knew the true consequences that lay ahead. It was time to channel the might of the Nine-Revolution Elixir strategically and emerge triumphant from this perilous encounter.

BOOM!!!!

A resounding explosion rang out as the Giant Earth Bear clashed upon the wall of the cave, causing the whole cave to shudder like an earthquake had arrived.

"Wow, my agility is back again. No, it would be more accurate to say that the pain I felt when moving doesn't seem to be there any longer, this, in turn, doesn't hinder my agility."

ROAR!!

"I don't have much time to play with this guy, I need to end things fast."

The earth bear, now faced with an opponent more formidable than before, roared in frustration and launched another assault. Di Tian, however, was no longer on the defensive. He countered the bear's every move with an astonishing display of agility and strength, landing precise blows that weakened its defences further.

Each clash between dragon and bear sent shockwaves rippling through the cave, but Di Tian had the upper hand. The power of the "Nine-Revolution Elixir" had elevated his strength by a whole level.

Time seemed to blur as the battle continued. The Giant Earth Bear fought with all its might, using many of its offensive abilities and skills, but it was no match for Di Tian's enhanced prowess. No matter which ability or skill it used, Di Tian easily dodged it with his serpentine body, flexibly moving around the Giant Earth Bear. With each passing moment, the bear's movements grew sluggish, and its attacks lacked the same ferocity as before.

Finally, with a powerful stroke of his claw, Di Tian delivered a devastating blow to the earth bear's chest, sending it crashing into the cave wall. The impact was so forceful that the wall cracked under the bear's weight.

The Giant Earth Bear struggled to rise, its breaths heavy and labored, yet it still stood up with fury clouding its eyes. As for Di Tian, his eyes ablaze with determination, he knew that he had to end this battle before the effects of the Nine Revolutions Elixir wore off.

He circled the creature, darting in and out of its range, striking at its exposed areas whenever he found an opening. He relied on hit-and-run tactics, avoiding the brunt of the bear's attacks while whittling away at its defenses. Each strike he landed carried the force of the "Nine-Revolution Elixir," and he focused on exploiting the bear's weak points, the areas that its thick rock plates couldn't fully cover.

As the battle raged on, the Giant Earth Bear's fury seemed unyielding, but Di Tian's resolve matched it blow for blow. He refused to be overwhelmed by the beast's power and fury, drawing upon his own inner strength to endure. He knew that the fight was far from over, and the Giant Earth Bear's rage was a formidable force to contend with. But Di Tian was a dragon, and now he had even consumed the "Nine-Revolution Elixir". If he couldn't defeat his opponent when his strength was doubled, he might as well bash his head with a piece of tofu.

...

After some time, as the barrage of attacks subsided, the Earth Bear's breathing grew heavy, and its movements became sluggish. The relentless assault had taken a toll on the creature, leaving it vulnerable and exhausted.

ROAR!!!

The creature issued a roar filled with frustration and powerlessness.

"Now's my chance!" Di Tian seized the opportunity, channelling his energy into his dragon tail. He swiftly flew towards Giant Earth Bear's body, aiming for the weakened spots on the bear's body, striking with precision and power.

The black scales on his tail met rock plates, and sparks flew as Di Tian exploited the Earth Bear's temporary weakness. With each whip of his tail, he chipped away at the creature's defences, causing it to roar in pain and frustration.

BOOM!!!

In the end, the creature was sent flying for a few meters by the relentless attacks of Di Tian's Dragon Tail.

ROAR!!

The Giant Earth Bear roared and tried to stand on its feet again, but Di Tian didn't give it enough time to recollect itself. Without waiting, he swiftly flew towards the giant earth bear.

As he soared above the bear, he noticed an opportunity. With a swift dive, he aimed for the creature's unguarded open mouth. This time he didn't use his claws and tail; instead, he inhaled a huge amount of energy from the natural world and concentrated it in his chest, creating a lightning-like aura in the surroundings.

His dragon breath was already a deadly weapon, but due to the Giant Earth Bear being a highly attributed defensive creature and a mutant that was far more powerful than Di Tian, his dragon breath became powerless in front of the creature.

But not this time, the creature was already very exhausted, Di Tian was aiming for its open mouth, and last but not least, his strength and power were elevated by the "Nine-Revolution Elixir". When

all these factors came together, it wasn't difficult for his dragon breath to become the deadly weapon again.

The Giant Earth Bear seemed to have seen through his plan as the creature tried to close its mouth, but Di Tian wasn't going to give him the chance. In this battle, one of them must die, and he definitely didn't want to be the one who would have to die, alright.

Di Tian used "dragon claw" and "Slash" to part the mouth of the Giant Earth Bear and stop the creature from closing it down. Heat in the surroundings began to rise sharply, and laser-like lights thin as threads shot out of his mouth to the surroundings. In the next second, a thick pillar of highly concentrated energy came out of his dragon mouth; the pillar of energy directly targeted the wide-open mouth of the Giant Earth Bear.

'Take This, dragon breath' --- Summoning all his remaining strength, Di Tian had unleashed his most powerful attack – the Dragon Breath. A torrent of scorching highly concentrated energy shot forth from his jaws, straight into the Giant Earth Bear's open mouth. The Giant Earth Bear's very being was being destroyed from the inside because of the highly concentrated energy flames that came out of its body, engulfing the Giant Earth Bear's insides in a blazing inferno.

The beast roared in agony as its once formidable body was consumed by the searing flames. Its innate armour made up of rocks began to fall one by one, the sharp rocks at the creature's knees and elbows fell next, its chest lighted up, followed by its abdomen, and the whole body. Slowly the whole body of the earth bear began to scorch from the inside out. Its internal organs were already burned to charcoal, and in the next second, its body was set ablaze.

As the last embers died down, the cave fell silent.

Thud!

With a loud sound, the huge Giant Earth Bear that had cultivated in this cave for an unknown number of decades died as the creature's body fell heavily on the ground.

Di Tian hovered there, his chest heaving from the intense battle, but triumphant. The Giant Earth Bear, once a fearsome adversary, now lay defeated before him. With the bear's demise, a sense of exhaustion washed over Di Tian.

The effects of the Nine Revolutions Elixir were starting to wear off, and the pain that had been momentarily subdued began to resurface with a vengeance. He fell to the ground, no longer able to hover, struggling because of the pain, but a satisfied smile crossed his lips. He had won, he had defeated and killed an enemy many times more powerful than him.

But as the adrenaline of battle began to ebb away, the true cost of the "Nine-Revolutions Elixir" became apparent. The pain he had temporarily escaped now surged through his body like a tidal wave. He collapsed to the ground, writhing in agony as his injuries asserted themselves.

[It will be alright,] the Wise One reassured him, her voice surprisingly not as monotone as usual, but instead gentle and soothing. [All the System functionalities will be halted for a period.]

As Di Tian lay there, he didn't have the mood to listen to what said; his vision blurred.
