Chapter 557: Saixitia, Your Mom Wants You Home For Dinner

Looking at the Little Purple Dragon nibbling on an eggshell while perched on the Thunder Fiery Heavenly Dragon’s head, the Silver Colossal Dragon flying in the sky gazed down with curiosity.

Roar! Ao Tian, has that egg hatched?

The Heavenly Dragon growled.

Roar! Yes.

The Silver Dragon immediately flapped its massive wings, bringing its colossal head close to the Heavenly Dragon as it approached the Purple Dragon.

Roar! Ao Tian, your kid looks so adorable. May the great Saixitia touch it?

My kid? What nonsense...

The Heavenly Dragon was briefly speechless.

Roar! Saixitia, stop saying random things. We picked up this dragon egg. And with claws as big as yours, don't even think about touching it. What if you crush it to death?

Compared to the Silver Dragon, which had a body that stretched over two hundred meters and had claws larger than pillars, the Purple Dragon was only about a meter long. It looked like a speck of dust compared to the Silver Dragon.

Roar! I can't touch it?

The Silver Dragon lowered its right claw, disappointed.

Truthfully, it had wanted to use this opportunity to sneak in a pat on the Heavenly Dragon's head as well.

At that moment, the Single-Horned Kun flapped its fins and swam over. Staring curiously at the Purple Dragon on the Heavenly Dragon's head, it squeaked repeatedly.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Thunder Fiery, your egg hatched?

Boom!

A sleek, black and red tail swept through the air, tearing the atmosphere apart and sending shockwaves rippling in all directions. The strike landed squarely on the Kun's massive side.

From the impact, the surrounding space shattered as the powerful force sent the enormous Kun flying like a massive cannonball, hurtling dozens of kilometers away.

Boom!

The ocean erupted as the Kun crashed into the water. The violent waves that followed overturned dozens of colossal beasts nearby, creating a scene of utter chaos.

After witnessing this scene, the other colossal beasts, who had been about to speak, shrank back and held their tongues.

How scary. Thunder Fiery was still as violent as ever.

Meanwhile, the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle gloated from the sidelines.

Roar! Serves you right, you fool! How dare you say in front of Saixitia that the egg belongs to Thunder Fiery?

Roar! I’ve already said, this isn’t my egg, and it’s not my child.

The Heavenly Dragon snorted, releasing scorching waves of heat, while the slightly swaying tail blade behind it radiated a dangerous aura.

Of course, the tail strike earlier had been delivered without the blade and with controlled strength. Otherwise, the Kun wouldn’t have been sent flying—it would’ve been cleaved in two.

After finishing half of the eggshell, the Purple Dragon was full and satisfied. It set down the shell and looked curiously at the surrounding colossal beasts.

Eeya! Eeya?

In response to its inquiry, the Heavenly Dragon growled in gently.

Roar! They’re all my friends and subordinates.

It suddenly realized something.

Roar! Oh, right. I don’t think I’ve given you a name yet.

Hearing this, the Silver Dragon’s eyes lit up, and it roared enthusiastically.

Roar! Thunder Fiery, let the great Saixitia name it!

Roar! No need. I’ll do it myself. I don’t want it to have a Western name.

The Heavenly Dragon pondered for a moment.

Roar!

You’re always going "Eeya, Eeya" all day long, so I’ll call you Xiao Yi. You’ll take my family name, and your full name will be Ao Yiyi.

Eeya?

The Purple Dragon tilted its head, then happily nodded. It transformed into a streak of light and zipped back and forth above the Heavenly Dragon’s head, chirping "Eeya, Eeya" nonstop.

By then, the Kun returned from where it had landed, and asked.

Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Thunder Fiery, is Xiao Yi a male or female?

The other colossal beasts immediately perked up with curiosity.

Roar! It’s just been born. Don’t you think that question is a bit much?

In truth, the Heavenly Dragon didn’t know if the Purple Dragon was male or female either. After all, it had no idea how to distinguish the sexes of dragons. Should it check... that part?

However, the Purple Dragon’s rear was completely smooth—there was nothing to check!

Even the sex of the Silver Dragon was a mystery back when they first met. Back then, the Thunder Fiery Colossal Beast also spent a while observing the Silver Dragon, curious to figure out whether it was a male or female.

Since the Silver Dragon had nothing visible at the rear, however, Thunder Fiery was left confused for quite some time. It was only after it directly asked and the Silver Dragon explained that Thunder Fiery learned it was female.

Luckily, the lack of a visible rear on colossal dragons wasn’t an issue. With their ability to digest everything they consumed into energy, there was nothing left over to excrete.

***

Over the vast ocean, violent winds howled, and the sky darkened as towering waves over thirty meters high surged.

A menacing black and red colossal beast, over five hundred meters long, coiled within the storm clouds. Surrounded by blue thunderbolts, its massive body occasionally broke through the clouds, resembling a mythical dragon soaring through the skies.

However, compared to the dragons in eastern legends, the black and red beast appeared far more powerful and robust.

Atop this fearsome beast’s head, the Purple Dragon, barely over a meter long, clung on tightly with all four claws to one of the beast's sharp, thick black horns and let out an excited cry.

Eeya! Eeya!

The Purple Dragon was brimming with excitement. It glanced at the colossal beasts spiraling around in the skies and at the massive beasts slicing through the ocean waves below. Stretching out one of its small claws, it pointed forward.

Eeya! Yayaya!

The Silver Dragon flapped its enormous wings, stirring up powerful gusts as it flew alongside the Heavenly Dragon. It cast a puzzled look at the Purple Dragon perched on Thunder Fiery’s head.

Roar! Ao Tian, what is Xiao Yi saying?

The Heavenly Dragon growled nonchalantly.

Roar! It’s saying we should charge ahead. It wants to conquer the world.

The Silver Dragon widened its eyes and let out a thunderous roar.

What? This little one hasn’t even been weaned yet, and it’s already dreaming of world domination? Even the great Saixitia only ever claimed it wanted to rule the oceans. And why is it always perched on Ao Tian’s head, commanding it to charge forward?

Looking at the little one clinging to the Heavenly Dragon’s horn, the Silver Dragon suddenly let out a low growl.

Roar! Xiao Yi, do you want to go play in the ocean below with the great Saixitia?

The Purple Dragon turned its head to look at the Silver Dragon, thought for a moment, and then shook its head.

Eeya! Eeya!

The Silver Dragon, unable to understand the baby talk, looked toward the Heavenly Dragon for clarification.

With a slightly odd expression, the Heavenly Dragon growled softly.

Roar! Xiao Yi says you’re trying to trick it. It won’t go play with you.

Roar! The great Saixitia never tricks dragons! Really, I just want to take you down there to experience what it feels like to lead a colossal beast army and dominate the seas.

While the Silver Dragon hovered in the air, attempting to coax the Purple Dragon down from the Heavenly Dragon’s head, on the surface of the ocean, a level 7 colossal sea turtle approached the Dragon Turtle, letting out a submissive growl.

Wuu! Great Baxia, may I follow you?

The Dragon Turtle turned its massive head to glance at the sea turtle and nodded slightly.

Roar! Fine, you’ll do. Follow behind me.

Earlier, during the battle between the two colossal beast factions, this level 7 sea turtle had charged fearlessly behind Hu San, showing remarkable ferocity.

The black orca had led a group consisting of three beginning-stage level 8 colossal beasts and over twenty level 7 beasts to encircle and attack six beginning- and middle-stage level 8 beasts. They had managed to take down their opponents.

Hu San, supported by its subordinates, had bitten two of the enemies to death, while the remaining four were overwhelmed by the group of beasts.

Notably, this sea turtle had fought fearlessly, displaying the courage characteristic of its kind.

Passage One and Passage Two were located quite far apart. Under the lead of the Heavenly Dragon, who controlled a storm of thunderclouds, it took over three hours to reach the other passage's location.

Of course, the delay was mostly due to the slow pace of the colossal beasts following behind. If it wanted to make an impressive entrance, the Heavenly Dragon had no choice but to endure the wait.

At a depth of over three thousand meters beneath the sea, a massive blue vortex over six hundred meters high rotated slowly, radiating invisible, powerful energy fluctuations from its boundary.

The mingling forces of two realms compressed and displaced the surrounding seawater, forming a waterless void spanning three kilometers.

Thunderclouds rolled across the sky, quickly blanketing the sky above the passage. Thunderbolts roared from the heavens, while the mighty roars of colossal beasts echoed through the seas.

After just two roars, however, all of the colossal beasts fell silent. They noticed something unusual—there wasn’t a single other creature in the vicinity.

Hmm...

The Silver Dragon suddenly remembered.

Roar! I forgot. The Balong Colossal Beast King, who resides near this passage, has never bothered to control it. It’s always sleeping on the other side, so no other beasts linger around here.

Roar! Any level 9 colossal beast passing through the passage just avoids disturbing it, and it won’t interfere. It allows any level 9 creature to come and go freely.

Hearing this, the Heavenly Dragon, radiating a mythical-level pressure, fell into annoyed silence.

It wished it had known sooner. Now its dramatic entrance had been a complete waste.

While Thunder Fiery considered whether it should cross the passage and give the mythical beast on the other side a beating, something stirred on the other end.

Sensing the unrestrained mythical-level pressure emanating from the Heavenly Dragon, the black colossal beast, which had been lying dormant on the other side of the passage, opened its eyes.

Roar! This aura... it’s that little one called Thunder Fiery. Has it already awakened and broken through to the mythical level?

The black colossal beast’s gaze was filled with surprise.

In the vast world, it was typical for a colossal beast advancing to the mythical level to sleep for dozens, even hundreds, of day-cycles, gradually fusing with the laws and tempering its colossal body. Yet this little one had awakened after just half a day-cycle.

Then again, this was the same creature that had gone from level 7 to the mythical level in only a few day-cycles. With immense talent like that, perhaps being a little abnormal was only natural.

With this thought, the black beast, which was over 1,300 meters long, slowly stood up. Its massive form stirred a storm of roaring waves, and with a single step, it entered the passage.

Boom!

The moment the black beast stepped in, the entire blue vortex began to tremble violently.

On the Blue Planet, the passage shook as an overwhelming aura rapidly spread out. Even the Heavenly Dragon’s gaze turned serious under the strong pressure.

This was a colossal beast at the late stage of the mythical level, and its aura was so formidable that even Thunder Fiery felt a hint of danger. Clearly, this wasn’t an ordinary mythical beast.

Boom!

Under the watchful and tense eyes of the surrounding colossal beasts, a black colossal beast, a thousand meters long, emerged. In an instant, an overwhelming draconic power filled the area, causing the Nine-Headed Serpent and other colossal beasts to feel their breaths grow heavier.

The oppressive aura of a mythical colossal beast with a king-level bloodline was extremely tough to bear, even for other creatures with king-level bloodlines like the Serpent.

As for the female orca and the other level 7 and 8 beasts, they were all instantly forced down to the seafloor by the pressure, unable to move.

At that moment, only the Silver Dragon and Zhulong fared slightly better. The Heavenly Dragon and Purple Dragon, however, were completely unaffected, as their bloodline levels were far superior.

Roar!

Suddenly, from ten thousand meters above, a terrifying aura erupted from the Heavenly Dragon. The explosive force formed a spherical shockwave that shook the heavens and earth.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the auras of the two mythical law-carrying beasts clashed, the entire ocean quaked violently. Towering waves surged across the sea, and the world seemed to flip upside down.

In the sky, the thunderclouds were blown apart, forming a circular void over ten kilometers wide. The surrounding clouds rolled turbulently, creating a spectacle of chaos.

The Silver Dragon beside the Heavenly Dragon immediately grew excited, letting out a resounding roar.

Roar! Ao Tian, go for it, beat it up! The great Saixitia will unify the seas!

Although the black beast didn’t seem to care much about fighting them, the Silver Dragon felt that, without defeating this mythical beast that was guarding Passage One, its path to domination would be incomplete.

The Heavenly Dragon, who shared this sentiment, slowly nodded. In its golden pupils, a faint dark red glow began to appear, while streaks of black and red lightning surged across its body.

In an instant, an ominous aura spread across the entire area.

The black beast, which had been observing them, was startled. It could feel an overwhelming sense of danger emanating from the Heavenly Dragon, even though it had only recently broken through to the beginning stage of the mythical level. The danger was palpable—strong enough to threaten its life.

Roar! Stop, no fighting, no fighting!

The black beast hurriedly roared.

Roar! Saixitia, the great Adrienna asked me to tell you it’s time to go home. You’ve been out playing for several day-cycles now. It also said to bring your friends along as guests.

The Heavenly Dragon, who had been on the verge of entering its dark red form, froze.

The excited Silver Dragon also paused in confusion and looked down below.

Roar! Balong Colossal Beast King, you know the great Saixitia’s mother?

Roar! Of course I do.

The black beast let out a low growl.

Roar! I am the subordinate of Adrienna—the Titan King, the ruler of storms, destruction, and frost. I am Balong Kolodo, the king of the mountains.

As it spoke, the mythical-level pressure the black beast had been giving off gradually receded. All of the colossal beasts, who had been stunned and tense, collectively breathed a sigh of relief. The Kun widened its eyes in shock.

Squeak, squeak, squeak! So, you guys are all family!

Roar, roar! Saixitia is amazing, absolutely legendary!

It was also at that moment that all of the colossal beasts had the same realization. They glanced at the Silver Dragon circling in the sky and then at the mythical beast below.

Even the Heavenly Dragon hadn’t anticipated this development—and with Adrienna having a title like Titan King, it was clear that Saixitia's mother was a mythical titan colossal beast on par with the Heavenly Kings of the human race.

No wonder the scale of law wielded by the Silver Dragon had been so powerful, capable of effortlessly destroying the will-projection summoned by the Black Abyss King.

At that moment, Zhulong, circling nearby, suddenly roared.

Roar... Xiao Yi’s name... sounds... beautiful.

...??

The black beast below blinked in confusion. How was its connection to the Silver Dragon’s mother relevant to Xiao Yi having a nice name? And who was Xiao Yi?

Then, the Heavenly Dragon let out a deep and resonant roar.

Roar! Since we’re all family, there’s no need to fight.

As it spoke, dazzling black lightning burst forth from its body, with golden light radiating from between its scales.

Boom!

The high-level destruction and vajra laws erupted simultaneously, causing the entire world to tremble under the divine aura. The clouds in the sky were instantly dispersed, and the air churned into massive vortexes.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Surrounded by these laws, the Heavenly Dragon raised its head and unleashed a series of fierce, majestic roars that shook the heavens.

With the four mythical colossal beast factions controlling the world passages subdued, the vast ocean now had no power left to rival the Dragon Palace.

At this point, the Heavenly Dragon could officially declare the Dragon Palace as the undisputed ruler of the seas.

As the Heavenly Dragon roared in triumph, perched atop its mighty head, the Purple Dragon clung to the massive dragon horn. Its mouth opened wide, and it joined in the celebratory roars with joy.

Eeya! Eeya!

Roar! The great Saixitia is invincible! Saixitia is the ruler of the seas! Roar! Roar! Roar!

The Silver Dragon, filled with excitement, circled around the Heavenly Dragon, letting out high-pitched roars of triumph.

In the air, other colossal beasts joined the celebration. The Kun, the Serpent, Zhulong, and even the colossal beasts that had resurfaced from the depths roared in unison, their voices shaking the heavens.

It wasn’t until ten minutes later that the thunderous roars gradually subsided, and calm began to return to the world. After such an emotional release, it was time to prepare for departure.

Passage Three was blocked by the ancient creature. While the Heavenly Dragon had already learned the Ocean Phantasmal Demon secret technique, it hadn’t yet had the time to gather other life auras to fully cultivate the technique.

Even if the cultivation succeeded, it wasn’t planning to risk that passage. After all, what if the ancient creature was just waiting with its mouth wide open on the other side?

Passage Four was too small, and Passage Two had collapsed. Thus, even without the invitation from the mythical titan beast, their only option was to take Passage One.
