Beneath the Red Dragon

Some of the half-beastmen had their internal organs shaken by the shockwave from the explosion of the Fire God Cannon, with blood seeping from the corners of their eyes and ears. Their vision before them seemed to have been dizzy as if struck by an illusion spell, with buzzing sounds filling all around their ears.

The Magic Beam and Magic Penetrating Beam struck directly, penetrating the outer defenses of some yetis and long-haired ogres with thick fur, piercing through their hearts.

The dense attacks not only halted the advancement of the Monster Corps attempting to cross the stream, but also directly bombarded the stream, covered in green moss and brown algae, into a dry state with the fierce cannonfire and Magic Beam.

And the monsters’ blood and flesh, at this moment, flowed into the gaps of the stream, surging heavily.

Silence fell upon many, even the Frost Giant Corps, thousands of their ranks among the monsters in the rear ceased their intimidating howling. The frost giants’ cold cheeks frosted over.

No one could have imagined that the charge of three thousand monsters would be annihilated nearly half before even getting half a mile close to the Golden Empire Legion, and this was merely the first wave of demonstrative strikes from the Golden Empire Legion.

"Where is the Frost Giant King," Blue Dragon Akzhi spread his wings, stood out from the crowd, and shouted loudly. The voice of the giant dragon echoed, "Since you actively requested a meeting with the Empire, why not show yourself? If you desire war, the Empire will willingly grant you an honorable death."

"And I also want to know if the bones of frost giants are harder than those of beastmen."

This Blue Dragon whose aura was as fierce as thunderbolt, its body length had reached eighteen meters, and its massive azure scales interlaced and covered its body, displaying a deep sky color under the sunlight.

The long and sturdy neck raised high, the massive horn began to change with growth, from growing forward and upward to curving backward, two short horns starting to transform toward the bone-like structure resembling face armor, looking as if wearing the horn crown of a Dragon King.

The mighty wings spread horizontally, displaying lightning patterns and thunderbolt spots.

The White Dragon Saclese hovering in the sky was enraged, not only because those slaughtered were his last remaining slaves and beloved, but also because the opponent blatantly disregarded his presence.

Thus, Saclese swooped down from the sky, the true dragon majesty of an adult giant dragon enveloped, like an imposing prison.

"Arrogant blue scales, are all the dragons of the Golden Empire as arrogant as you? I, ’Ice Prison’ Saclese, stand before you, and you dare to ignore me,"

Saclese intended to crush this rebellious blue dragon’s neck with his giant claws. With the adult giant dragon’s size and dropping speed, a distance of hundreds of meters became just a fleeting instant.

Yet not only was the majesty of the adult giant dragon unable to suppress Blue Dragon Akzhi, but even the Golden Empire Legion remained unshaken, the legion’s manifested will firmly resisted the dragon’s majesty.

Crack,

Blue Dragon Akzhi’s pupils suddenly turned dazzling white and bright, the lightning patterns on his wings rapidly flowed as if electric light flashed, at that instant, the blue dragon’s body nearly became transparent.

Countless surging currents manifested within his body, allowing Blue Dragon Akzhi’s speed to break the sound barrier, disappearing like lightning.

Although Blue Dragon Akzhi lacked the knowledge of the Ancestral Red Dragon and couldn’t fully comprehend it, even if he possessed all the Ancestral Red Dragon’s knowledge, he wouldn’t be able to replicate their abilities precisely.

Currently, Blue Dragon Akzhi has realized using his innate bloodline, although unable to achieve elementalization, he could rely on lightning to traverse the void.

It was as if Blue Dragon Akzhi took his body into account as the work needed in the electromagnetic field, Akzhi drew the power of effect within, able to use the electromagnetic field to accelerate his own work.

Thus, Blue Dragon Akzhi mastered a speed comparable to lightning.

"Get down, you are not yet worthy to speak to me, let the true Lord of the Frost Giant Corps come to see me," Blue Dragon Akzhi’s bright pupil laced with lightning appeared at White Dragon Saclese’s back, turning guest into host.

The enormous blue claws pressed down, and for a moment, massive currents combined with the chaos and violent corruption in the Evil Dragon Blood merged with its own power, invading into White Dragon Saclese’s body.

Lightning thunderbolt paralyzed his body, chaotic corruption paralyzed his mind, although White Dragon Saclese appeared stronger than Blue Dragon Akzhi, at this moment, he was smacked down by the blue dragon’s claw into the dust.

Crash, unexpectedly, White Dragon Saclese soared sideways, his massive body gnawed a deep trench into the wasteland.

Though the adult white dragon’s powerful physique remained undamaged, Saclese could feel the boiling violence, unparalleled darkness, brutality, and chaos within the Evil Dragon Blood was attacking and guiding his bloodline’s foundation.

He would soon turn crazy, a frenzied giant dragon posed a deadly threat to other living creatures, but before its own kind, it might become a fatal flaw.

The opponent failed to instantly shatter his scale armor, yet facing his insane self, he could easily detect the weaknesses that weren’t covered in scale armor.

"I must defeat this Blue Dragon before falling completely into chaos," Saclese’s mind flashed with thoughts, and he uttered a fierce roar.

"Roar," he stamped the ground and took to the air with flapping wings.

"Enough, Saclese, stop embarrassing yourself,"

The faint voice, imbued with undeniable authority, swiftly cleared the white dragon’s muddled mind, bringing clarity.

Dense Frost Giant Corps warriors parted like diverging tides, opening a pathway from the middle.

The Frost Giant King emerged slowly, armored, towering, strong yet calm, steadfast; it was the first impression for all beings.

"It seems, the Golden Empire’s emperor didn’t reject this appointment due to inability to resist my power, but rather felt I’m unworthy of his presence?"

The Frost Giant King stepped out from the crowd and spoke softly.

Yet as the Frost Giant King’s voice fell, time in the entire world seemed to pause and slow down, the grassland’s wind’s whistling receded from everyone’s ears, imposing and indescribable oppressive force descended upon the grassland.

Silence fell across the multitude, as if the spiritual shackles of Heaven and Earth enshrouded them.

"Then I’ll let you witness the price of belittling me,"

The Frost Giant King raised an ordinary Battle Lance, his boundless will locked firmly onto Blue Dragon Akzhi in the sky, the lance slowly lifted.

An indescribable lethal threat deeply enveloped Akzhi’s heart.

"Even if transformed into lightning, I’d still die!"

Realization flashed through Akzhi’s mind, he roared out in fury, true dragon’s majesty spreading forth, spiritual dominion resonating with the legion’s will.

Thus, upon the heavens above, like spreading ominous clouds shrouding, an invisible field and aura encompassed all, covering the heavens above.

Even the Frost Giant King’s five fingers holding the lance influenced by such immense will snapped apart with a click, breaking his ordinary Bone Spear.

Was it an illusion in the sky above?

No, it wasn’t an illusion but a projection.

Tens of thousands of Frost Giant Corps, thousands of Empire Legion, and countless spectators could witness.

Upon the heavens above, within the projection, a colossal Red Dragon was surrounded by storm giants presenting him to the palace hall.

The dragon sat upon the throne, slowly turning his head to cast his gaze here.

Eyes of dark gold, calm, indifferent, grim.

"Do you wish to die?"

The Dragon Emperor on the throne spoke.
