Reincarnated With A Divine Bloodline System

Chapter 25: -25- Scorch Crocodile

'Let's see...' Silas thought as he now began to look at the actual divine ability.

'10 meters,' the beginning stage of this ability started out at roughly 10 meters in height, with the user's strength increasing quite significantly as well...

After an hour went by, Silas had finally managed to comprehend the divine ability.

He then stood up and used it for the first time, activating his divine power.

"Whoosh!" Silas instantly grew to 13 meters in height.

'Looks like the quality of my divine power has helped me out a bit,' Silas thought. He knew his comprehension of the divine ability was shallow at best, so at most he should only be about 9 or 10 meters in height, not 13, but he wasn't going to complain. This only made him stronger.

He then summoned his weapon, and thanks to his Fiendgod Weapon Refinement technique he had just used, not only had his robe increased seamlessly with him when his body was enlarged, but his weapon had now increased in size to accommodate his enlarged body.

"Damn, Silas!" Red suddenly said upon seeing him suddenly grow. He had no idea what Silas was doing, but he could tell this wasn't just Silas using his Transcendent ability to grow in size. He could feel the increased strength of his body radiating off of him.

Since the only abilities known by the clans inside the inheritance realm were brought in by those few who happened to enter, very few clans had a divine ability, since most youths wouldn't be allowed to carry a manual of a divine ability on them when leaving the clan or sect grounds. So, the Armstrong clan and the other clans of Moonvale Mountain had no divine abilities among them.

"Ahh, that's nothing," Kai said with a laugh as he first transformed into human form and then enlarged his body to 15 meters. He had clearly also gained this divine ability from his inherited memories and had spent a little time comprehending the ability, so his divine ability was currently more profound than Silas's.

"Why didn't you use this during the fight?" Silas asked Kai, who now looked like a similar but slightly shorter version of Silas. If anyone were to see them currently, they would think they were actual brothers related by blood. This would have been helpful when fighting the Riverstone Elder.

"I would have pulled it out if we had truly needed it," Kai said with a grin.

"Anyway, now I think it's time to go find and kill that Scorch Crocodile," Silas said, his anger starting to come back.

"Do you know where it is?" he asked, looking at Kai.

Kai nodded, "Yeah, I tracked it down after learning this divine ability. I wanted to go teach it a lesson, but then I remembered you said you wanted to kill it yourself, so I decided to leave it for now. But I know its general location from a day ago, so I can quickly find it again."

"Good. Lead the way," Silas said with a smile that wasn't a smile.

***

It didn't take long for Kai to find the scent of the beast, and Silas was furious when the trail actually led them to another destroyed small tribe. It just made his hate for the beast grow even more, and he swore to kill it.

After traveling for several more hours, Silas, Kai, and Red soon heard the sounds of battle.

"Boom!" "Bang!" "Boom!"

"Hahaha! Little girl, what can you do to me?! Watch as I go kill some more of you insignificant humans!!" Silas heard a raspy deep voice yell.

"That's the beast," Kai confirmed.

Knowing that the crocodile was close by and acting like it was about to go kill more humans, Silas ran forward as quick as he could to stop the beast.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Shing!" Silas soon ran up on the battle that was far off into the distance, but with his enhanced eyesight as a Transcendent lifeform, he could see it clear as day.

"Thea?" Silas said. This was the last place he thought he would run into her.

He quickly realized that Thea could do little to the peak Transcendent King Beast, so he continued to run forward and soon entered the battlefield.

"Oh ho ho, another delectable human!" the croc said with a laugh.

"Silas?" Silas heard Thea say.

"What are you doing here? Did my grandfather tell you where I was?" Thea finally asked.

"No," Silas said with a shake of his head. "I'm here for this beast. It slaughtered a village I had been staying in for the past couple of months." Silas said with anger in his voice as he glared at the beast, who just stood there in its humanoid form that still held clear signs of being a crocodile. The beast was large, standing 10 meters in height.

"I see," Thea said. "I'm here for a similar reason. While traveling, I heard that a beast had been going around slaughtering villages, so I decided to kill it. But I've been battling it for a few minutes now, and it's way too strong for me. I even almost lost my life, so you definitely shouldn't think of killing it. You should run," Thea said, thinking that Silas was still a peak Mortal.

"Don't worry about me," Silas said as he walked forward, pulling his scythe out.

"Oh yes, yes. Come, come," the croc said with a small laugh, clearly enjoying itself.

"I'm going to kill you for what you've done," Silas said.

"Haha, really? We'll see who dies in the end," the croc said as it dashed forward toward Silas with a whip in its hand.

"Whoosh!" The whip flew through the air, with fire wrapped around it.

'It's using its Lesser Fire Dao,' Silas thought. Kai had said the beast had touched a fire Dao, and it seemed he wasn't wrong.

"Watch out!" Thea yelled. She knew the strength of that whip, and while Silas's body was extremely durable, even more so than her own, she wasn't sure if he could handle it.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Shing!" "Shing!" Silas blocked twice with his scythe and then sent out his two sickles, controlling them with his divine will while infusing them with his newly upgraded early Transcendent Qi, combined with his two Lesser Daos of Rot and Crumbling.

"Ahhh!" the croc yelled out in pain. It was surprised by the strength of this human.

"How?" Thea muttered as she saw the deep cuts that were both rotting and crumbling away. She had no idea how Silas was so strong already. She recognized his use of the Dao, and while she didn't know which Lesser Daos they were, she was familiar with the Dao since her grandfather had managed to touch one Lesser Dao of Earth.

Silas continued to run forward, and with each step, his height increased until he was now standing at 13 meters.

"Bang!" "Shing!!" He brought down his massive scythe in two quick attacks and cut deep into the croc's body.

"What are you?!" the croc yelled. It had never seen an early Transcendent human that was so strong. And why did his strength increase as he grew? He had fought several humans in his long life, but he had never seen one dare to increase their size mid-battle. All that would do was make them a bigger target while their strength would stay the same.

"Die!" Silas yelled as he continued his attack with both his scythe and his two sickles that constantly flew through the air.

"Shing!" "Shing!" "Shing!" "Shing!" "Shing!" "Shing!"

The croc couldn't do a single thing to stop Silas as its body slowly began to fail it, with deep cuts all over.

"You!" the beast yelled as Kai finally showed himself, starting to laugh and mock the croc.

"Not so strong now, are you... Remember this: the one who killed you was my, Kai Armstrong's, second brother..." Kai said as he continued to laugh in joy at the beast's misfortune. In their previous battle, the beast had laughed and mocked Kai for being so weak as a small Transcendent lifeform, so he was now paying the beast back.

"Shing!" "Shing!" "Shing!" Silas finally managed to quell his anger and decided to end the fight.

"Shing!!!" With one quick stab, one of his sickles pierced straight through the head of the beast.

Silas then put away his three weapons and sat down in a lotus position, beginning to go through his new insights from the brief battle.
