Versatile Mage: Starting Contract Groudon

Chapter 56 The Original Returns!

…………

From the snow-capped mountains of Hokkaido, to the bustling cities of Honshu, to the remote islands of Kyushu, countless people were awakened by the sudden loud noise. They looked up at the sky and saw the top of Mount Fuji in the distance shrouded in a red light, which was the result of the light of Groudon and the lava lake shining together.

But the people of Sakura Country didn’t know what was happening, and the whole country was in panic.

"What's happening? Is Mount Fuji going to erupt?"

"Our actions must have angered the mountain god, and he is going to punish us!"

"Run! Mount Fuji is about to erupt. If you don't run, you'll die!"

The people fell into panic, while the top leaders of the Sakura Country were discussing intensively what exactly happened to the Mount Fuji volcano.

For example, one of the noble families in Sakura Country, the Mochizuki family, also participated in the talks.

However, Mochizuki Chishun was very clear that this meeting would definitely not produce any results.

As a native of Sakura Country, Mochizuki Chisaki knew that those people in the parliament only wanted to shirk responsibility and pass the buck. If they wanted to come up with a result, it would take at least several hours of wrangling.

So, Mochizuki Chixun gritted her teeth and decided to go to Mount Fuji first to observe the situation.

At the very least, you don't have to wait until it's too late to react.

Zhao Tingxi was not clear about the situation in Sakura Country. All he could see was that Groudon was holding the lava hound that it was talking about. Although the hound was huge in size, it looked like a puppy in Groudon's hands.

This lava hound is the guardian beast of Mount Fuji!
Groudon swung his huge fist and punched the Lava Hound again and again.

As the supreme monarch, the Lava Hound was no match for the emperor-level Groudon. It was easily killed and turned into a wisp of spirit that floated into the ruby.

"Can we seal its body?" Zhao Tingxi asked hurriedly after the lava hound was sent.

"Of course! Why? Do you want to refine it into an undead beast?"

Groudon naturally would not refuse such a small matter. The lava power that appeared in his hands continued to wrap up the body of the lava hound.

"Of course!" Zhao Tingxi said with a smile.

The lava hound is the supreme monarch. If he could refine its corpse into an undead, Zhao Tingxi would not believe how awesome it would be! Although his current strength is not enough, with time and effort, sooner or later Zhao Tingxi would be able to refine the lava hound's corpse into an undead beast.

After Groudon sealed the Lava Hound's body and placed it in the ruby, it began to absorb the energy from the volcanic fire veins of Mount Fuji.

At this time, Groudon's body began to undergo subtle changes. It seemed to have become a huge energy receiver and began to absorb the energy from the volcanic fire veins of Mount Fuji.

Zhao Tingxi watched this scene, his eyes flashing with anticipation and awe. He was looking forward to how powerful Groudon would become after absorbing the power of the Fuji volcanic fire vein.

Groudon's skin began to glow, and the light was like a tiny flame, moving along the contours of its body and finally converging at its core. With every breath, Groudon seemed to be communicating with the lava veins deep in the earth's core, and the energy in its body began to resonate with the volcanic fire veins of Mount Fuji.

As Groudon absorbed it, the lava lake in the crater began to fluctuate more violently, as if being pulled by some invisible force, and began to rotate around Groudon, forming a huge vortex. The color of the lava in the center of the vortex became deeper and deeper, as if it was attracted by Groudon's powerful magnetic field, continuously transmitting energy into its body.

Groudon's body gradually emitted a stronger light, which spread from its core to the outside until its entire body was surrounded by a dazzling halo. This halo contained not only the heat of fire, but also the heaviness and stability of the earth. The two completely different forces reached a perfect balance in Groudon.

As time went by, Groudon absorbed more and more energy, and its shape began to change subtly. Its muscle lines became smoother, and the surface of its rock-textured skin began to take on a golden luster, as if it had been sublimated after thousands of temperings.

"Is this... entering the original state of regression?" Seeing Groudon's body begin to change, Zhao Tingxi couldn't help but start to speculate.

The fact is just as Zhao Tingxi guessed, Groudon is about to return to its original state!

Its size swelled in an instant, and its originally rocky appearance was given more primitive and wild characteristics, as if it had returned to its pure form when it was first created.

Groudon's eyes burned with even hotter flames, like two small suns, releasing dazzling light, illuminating the entire crater. Its skin was no longer just hard rock, but a fusion of lava and metal textures, flowing with hot magma lines. Every time it moved, it was as spectacular as a flowing river of fire.

Its limbs became thicker and more powerful, and every step it took caused the ground to tremble, as if every action was reshaping the earth.

In the original state of regression, every roar of Groudon carried an echo from the depths of the earth, shaking the lava lake in the crater and making the rolling mountains seem to tremble at its voice. The aura around it also became more majestic, and even Zhao Tingxi, who was far away, could feel the shocking pressure!

"Roar!!!!"

With a deafening roar, it returns to its original form and begins to show off its mountain-like body!
After holding back for so long, Groudon is going to let go and expand his body completely!

Groudon's size began to grow at an alarming rate, rapidly expanding from a huge existence to an incredible size. In the end, Groudon's height reached an astonishing thousand meters, and its huge body stood on the crater of Mount Fuji, as if it was a true god of the earth, descending to the earth.

Groudon's head towers into the clouds, and his eyes are like two burning suns, overlooking the world below. Its body is covered with thick rocks and flowing lava. Every breath it takes can cause the crater to vibrate, and even affect the surrounding terrain. Its sturdy limbs are like pillars supporting the world, and every step it takes is like the pulse of the earth, shaking the entire mountain range!
