Chapter 673 - 95: Two Choices (Part 2)
In a certain sense, the Ancestral Red Dragon is indeed a different life form compared to ordinary Dragons.
And the size of the Ancestral Red Dragon reaches a length of twenty-seven meters, a concept perhaps not clearly understood by other species, but deeply realized by these Five-Colored Dragon Species.
Among the Five-Color Dragons, during the hatchling and juvenile stages, from breaking the shell until around twelve years of age, they enter a period of dormancy in the next age stage. In both the hatchling and juvenile stages, even among Red Dragons with exceptional talent, the body size limit is approximately nine meters.
The Young Dragon stage is roughly from twelve to twenty years old, and each Giant Dragon adjusts according to their growth, but the difference is minimal.
By the end of the Young Dragon age, the body size limit is around twelve meters.
The adolescent Red Dragon is roughly from twenty-one to fifty years old, with the body size limit just over sixteen meters.
The Youth stage is from fifty-one to one hundred years old, and the normal Red Dragon’s body size limit can reach around twenty meters.
An adult Red Dragon, aged from about one hundred and one years to three hundred years, has a size of about twenty-six meters.
This is the common rule of Red Dragon growth in the Icaria World.
However, this Ancestral Red Dragon, during its adolescent stage, has already surpassed the body size limit of the vast majority of adult Red Dragons, crossing two age stages of difference, leaving all present Giant Dragons unable to suppress their inner shock.
But the Frost Giant King is also a powerful figure beyond legend; the Ancestral Red Dragon’s intimidation didn’t make him feel any fear. In the heart of such a strong figure, no matter the existence, it cannot frighten them, even if it’s the embodiment of a divine spirit descending to the world, let alone just a projection of the Ancestral Red Dragon.
A strong figure has strong resolve and pride.
"The Emperor of the Golden Empire, indeed imposing, do you feel that above the world, only you reign supreme, and even the kings of equal status need to bow in submission and fear your majesty?"
The Frost Giant King stood proudly, hands clasped behind him, and said casually, "Merely using words and such means isn’t enough to make me retreat. I’d rather measure your strength and see if it is as astounding as this grand spectacle."
"Oh? You are quite thoughtful; you are a very thoughtful Frost Giant,"
With a resounding echo of ancient Dragon Language, the sky above, in the projection, the Giant Dragon brought its pupil close. Instantly, the entire projection darkened, with all images occupied by this Red Dragon’s dark gold pupils.
"Then I will, as you wish."
The faint Dragon Language reverberated through the world, making it seem as if all images in the projection were occupied by the Red Dragon’s pupils, and in this moment, the world quietly dimmed.
No clouds blocked the sky, nor was there any cover of magic, it simply grew dark.
The projection in the sky instantly dissipated, and the pupil of the Ancestral Red Dragon disappeared, but the last image seen by all was the projection of the Ancestral Red Dragon baring its teeth and smiling.
In the next moment, the Ancestral Red Dragon with a toothy smile descended from the projection into this very reality.
Countless looked up in the dark at the center absorbing all light, not the actual Ancestral Red Dragon, but the sky covered with all will and field twisted.
The solar light’s radiated waves and rays were absorbed at this point of genuine will, constructing a form for the Ancestral Red Dragon’s mental consciousness to descend upon.
All heat and light, along with the information-carrying solar radiation waves intertwined into the Ancestral Red Dragon’s nervous system, foundational blood vessels, and muscular structure.
Crackling, on the earth, the initially calm ground started to rise, crumble in patches, and suddenly collapse, with cracks extending like a massive spider web.
From these cracks sprang countless black metal minerals and colored metal minerals. There were iron ores, silver ores, copper ores, lead ores, zinc ores, nickel, cobalt, tin, antimony, mercury, cadmium, bismuth ores, and even some gold and mithril stones.
Massive quantities of ore erupted skyward like gigantic earth dragons soaring.
Pale liquid stirred along the massive metal mineral vortex, flowing down to gather on the ground as stone-like liquid, with black and various colored metals extracted, twirling upward along the vortex.
These black and various colored metals were absorbed by the sky’s phantom, condensing into muscles attached to dragon bones, forming flesh clinging to dragon bones, constructing Dragon Scales on the metallic-liquid-like flesh exterior.
Then came the Giant Dragon’s claws, the Giant Dragon’s teeth, and finally the Giant Dragon’s horns.
Until the Ancestral Red Dragon’s body fully descended into this world, the light in the sky once again shone on everyone’s heads.
But whether it was the Imperial Legion, the Frost Giant’s Legion, the observers, or the powerful Frost Giant King, silence prevailed.
What a terrifying power, reminiscent of the myth where the King of Demons who destroys the world and returns it to chaos and darkness descended upon the earth, stripping everything bare, all life like mere grass.
And the majesty of the Ancestral Red Dragon was like the re-illuminating sun, pervading everyone, as long as you would consider this Red Dragon’s existence with actual interference and observation.
Just like this Red Dragon, able to harness the solar radiation waves, utilizing the radiation field, spreading its Ancestral Dragon Blood majesty.
