Chapter 795: The Ancient Path, Condensing the Body of Space-Time (I)

The colossal beast, wreathed in black-red lightning and surrounded by sequence chains of law, marched forward with the weight of a world upon its back. Wherever it passed, the earth quaked, mountains swayed, and space rippled. Some hazardous regions were outright destroyed in its wake.

A stretch of ocean spanning several thousand kilometers was littered with jagged reefs, all overgrown with a type of mushroom-shaped plant with a black iron texture.

𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Powerful currents of electricity danced and coiled atop the black iron mushrooms, summoning rumbling dark clouds and relentless thunderbolts crashing down from the sky to form a high-voltage lightning field.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Even before the Destructive Dragon Emperor approached, the formless pressure of spatial shockwaves had already shattered reefs hundreds of kilometers away. Seawater was blasted into the air, creating a breathtaking spectacle.

Surrounding the Dragon Emperor, the Silver Colossal Dragon and the Golden-Blue Colossal Dragon roared with excitement, unleashing thunderous draconic cries.

The scene resembled a bodybuilder flexing on stage, while two lovestruck fangirls screamed and jumped with delight beneath the spotlight.

Compared to the two dragons, the other colossal beasts displayed a bit more restraint.

Zhulong, Qiongqi, and the newly joined Longjia King, Kerla, and draconic horse beast, all followed closely behind, their eyes filled with fervor, though they remained composed.

However, the Dragon Emperor had another little fanboy who was far less reserved.

Roar! Roar! Roar! So powerful! Ao Ba is absolutely insane now!

Caught in a thousand-meter-high tsunami stirred by the howling wind, the Nine-Headed Serpent quivered all over with excitement, its tail twisting uncontrollably into a figure-eight.

Its nine ferocious heads were violently tugging in different directions—three tangled together, two ripping sideways, two crashing into each other head-on, while the remaining two foamed at the mouth.

Flying low near the Deep Sea Dragon Turtle, the Single-Horned Kunpeng groaned.

Baxia, did you fight Ghidorah while I was gone? Why does it seem like it’s become even crazier?

The Dragon Turtle shook its head and lowly rumbled,

It’s normal. That guy’s always been insane. It's just worse now.

It's definitely dumber than us.

The Kunpeng chirped softly. Its fierce, round eyes shimmered with a smug look that made it appear almost comical.

The two colossal beasts huddled together and whispered like two gossiping bystanders on the side of the road.

Boom!

The sea erupted. A massive whale tail shot skyward, slamming squarely into the Kunpeng’s belly with overwhelming force, and the surrounding air detonated in a sharp blast.

The Kunpeng had already broken into the mythical level. With a body stretching over five hundred meters, it was far too robust to be rattled by a blow from the two-hundred-meter-long female orca.

Despite now being stronger than its mate, however, the Kunpeng dared not fight back. It lowered its head and stared at the orca with a pitiful cry.

Honey, why did you hit me?

The female orca surfaced calmly, letting out a series of squeaky cries.

I’ve told you countless times—you and Ghidorah are brothers who’ve faced life and death together. You can’t mock him behind his back.

Both the Kunpeng and the Dragon Turtle showed sheepish expressions in their eyes.

Trailing behind them, the Blue Giant Crab blew a stream of bubbles, as its two large eyes darted around mischievously.

The King of Black and White is so lame—so big and still henpecked.

Now the Blue Crab was the real deal. Over the past few days, it had bullied dozens of crab-type mutated beasts in the chaotic sea and captured them all as wives, and not one dared to rebel.

Soon enough, General Crab would father a whole brood of children and pass on its supreme sculpting craft to them all.

The Dragon Emperor had carried the world on its back across tens of thousands of kilometers, spending two full days on the journey, and encountered almost no danger along the way.

The moment it drew near with its unrestrained aura, mutated and colossal beasts within a thousand kilometers fled in madness before it even arrived.

A waterfall cascaded from the heavens, crashing into the rift world on the sea. As the Dragon Emperor approached with the Ancient Clam World on its back, the entire rift world trembled.

Boom!

With a violent eruption of Dragon Force, the two worlds collided in an earth-shaking crash. The void exploded, and space across thousands of kilometers rippled violently. A black shockwave burst out from the point where the worlds met.

Both the rift world and the Ancient Clam World were fully-formed, self-contained micro-worlds, akin to bubbles floating within the dimensional rifts of the mythical world.

The impact caused the phantoms of both worlds to manifest in heaven and earth; land shattered, and oceans roared. It felt as though the apocalypse had been summoned.

Roar!

Having already fused worlds once before, the Dragon Emperor let out a deafening roar. In a flash, radiant red light flared from its body, and crimson lightning erupted in all directions.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A force even greater than the collision of the two micro-worlds exploded forth. The entire sky trembled under its devastating aura, as laws twisted and seawater detonated.

The Longjia King, Kerla and the draconic horse beast looked on in shock as a colossal beast over six thousand meters long emerged, shrouded in deep crimson light and exuding an ancient titan's awe-inspiring might.

Surrounded by black and red lightning, the Dragon Emperor’s mere presence was so devastating that space itself shattered and disintegrated under the crimson glow, as fragile as paper.

The destructive aura that radiated from it, even without form, stirred instinctive fear and awe in all who sensed it. This was especially true for the Longjia King, who was utterly shaken.

It was already terrifying enough when Ao Ba had ripped apart and killed the Titanic Flame Whale in just a few exchanges, despite being at the beginning stage of the titan level. Yet now, it had revealed such a fearsome Destruction Form.

As the colossal beasts of the Longjia Race reeled in shock, the Silver Dragon roared with even more excitement.

Ao Tian, Saixitia always loved you most in this form!

So powerful... so amazing.

Sensing the Dragon Emperor’s mighty aura, now stepping into the ancient titan level, the Golden-Blue Dragon’s tail grew weak, and its golden-blue pupils shimmered with fervent admiration.

Amid the gazes of every colossal beast, the dark-red beast tore through layers of space, plunging into the depths of the dimensional rift between the two worlds, which were enclosed by transparent crystalline barriers.

Deep crimson lightning gathered and compressed between the Dragon Emperor’s claws, forming two blazing red orbs brimming with destructive power so intense that the surrounding void collapsed in on itself.

This was pure, ultimate destruction.

Roar!

The Dragon Emperor roared and pressed the destruction spheres against the world barriers. In an instant, dazzling red light blazed deep within the void.

Boom!

An endless amount of dark-red lightning exploded. The crystalline barriers of both worlds shattered, erupting into two massive rifts.

A thousand-kilometer-long rift split open across the sky above over seven hundred thousand Longjia. On the other side, a crimson colossal beast a million meters tall stood upright, emanating a might capable of annihilating all existence.

As the world’s power distorted, the Dragon Emperor's projection appeared to the lifeforms within the micro-worlds, seeming unimaginably vast.

Perhaps this was the Dragon Emperor’s true essence—its actual colossal beast body—merely suppressed within the more durable mythical world.

Eeya! Eeya!

In the rift world, the Little Purple Dragon gazed excitedly at the boundless crimson beast beyond the sky and transformed into a streak of purple light, circling joyously in the air.

Just as the Dragon Emperor destroyed the crystalline barrier, the rift world trembled. From its edges, crystalline red tree roots sprouted, creeping through the rift and into the Ancient Clam World.

The trunk of the Red Divine Tree pierced into the oceans and land of the Ancient Clam World, spreading swiftly until it reached the world’s core. Instantly, both worlds quaked.

The roots of the Divine Tree, imbued with the special qualities of a World Tree, drew them together, and the origins of the two worlds slowly merged.

Boom!

As more world origin was absorbed, the Divine Tree radiated an even more dazzling crimson halo. Its trunk thickened, and its branches stretched wide.

With the sturdy support of World Force, over a dozen divine fruits on the tree pulsed with potent energy waves, and the law patterns inscribed on their surfaces grew more complete.

The world fusion process took nearly half a day to fully complete. By the time the raging spatial fluctuations subsided and the energy of heaven and earth settled, the rift world’s diameter had expanded to four thousand kilometers, its vertical span exceeding three thousand.

Most of the world was now ocean. To the east lay a continent one thousand kilometers wide, and at the intersection of land and sea stood the Central Mountain Range, upon which rose the Divine Tree over eight thousand meters tall.

Hundreds of thousands of Longjia had gathered in the sea below the mountain. At the forefront were several hundred beautiful mermaids, and more than a thousand colossal beasts of level 7 and above floated nearby.

Every alien and beast was brimming with emotion, gazing up at the mountain with reverence.

Beneath the Divine Tree stood several massive colossal beasts. All of them were looking toward the frontmost black and red beast—or more precisely, toward the ten-meter-long Purple Dragon perched atop its head.

Standing upright on the Dragon Emperor’s massive snout, the Purple Dragon planted its paws on its hips, shouting its cries again and again—fierce in a childish, adorable way.

Stupid Big Brother! You all went out to fight and didn’t bring Yiyi along! The great Yiyi is furious! Furious!

The sight left Kerla and the draconic horse beast dumbfounded. This tiny creature, no bigger than a palm, actually dared to yell at the great Thunder Fiery Dragon King? That was the one who had just forcibly merged two worlds!

To the side, the Silver Dragon roared,

Little Yi, you weren’t there at the time—you ran off to nap beneath the lake! And you’re so small we didn’t even notice you. It’s not our fault. But don’t worry, since we’re all good friends, next time we go on a blood-soaked rampage, we’ll definitely take you along.

The Purple Dragon blinked its eyes.

You’re the best, Saixitia! Next time you run out of strength, the great Yiyi will spit extra for you!

The Silver Dragon's eyes bulged instantly.

...Wait, the purple energy that restores our strength... that’s your saliva, Yiyi?

Yup!

The Purple Dragon nodded proudly.

Disgusting, Yiyi! You actually spit on the great Saixitia!

The Silver Dragon briefly showed a very human-like look of revulsion on its face.

...But still, remember—next time the great Saixitia gets injured, make sure to spit a little more.

At that, the Golden-Blue Dragon cast it a look of disdain.

This idiot was just complaining about the spit, and now it's—wait a second, could it be Saixitia’s finally gotten smarter? It used to roar outright whenever it disliked something.

A trace of amusement flashed in the Dragon Emperor’s eyes as the Silver Dragon successfully diverted the Purple Dragon’s attention. It took the opportunity to slowly look toward the surrounding colossal beasts and issue a deep, rumbling growl.

This time, with the fusion of two worlds and the growth of the Red-Patterned Divine Tree, thirteen top-level divine fruits have matured. I’ll distribute these among everyone.

A single top-level divine fruit now held little effect for the Dragon Emperor; they wouldn’t even add a few meters to its size, unless consumed in large batches. There was simply no need.

Compared to it, which had already reached the titan level, these fruits were far more beneficial for its subordinates, such as the newly ascended Silver Dragon and the Dragon Turtle.

Not to mention, most of them still hadn’t finished digesting the divine pearl energy from before. Once this round of gains was fully absorbed, they would each leap forward at least one minor realm.

Especially the Blue Crab, which had just reached the middle stage of level 9—it was thrilled. With another top-level divine fruit, it could rise straight to late-stage level 9 once the energy was digested.

This kind of growth is like riding a rocket! That’s what you get when you follow the right boss—good food, good drink, every single day.

The Blue Crab thought joyfully to itself.

Under the Dragon Emperor’s direction, the thirteen top-level divine fruits were distributed among the Silver Dragon, the Golden-Blue Dragon, and other subordinates, including the black orca.

Thanks to the sufficient number, even the recently joined draconic horse beast and Kerla received one each.

The Longjia King, on the other hand, didn’t get any. At the titan level, only law-level resources could substantially raise one’s strength; giving her a divine fruit would’ve been a waste.

The Dragon Emperor continued with a low, rumbling voice.

Next, I will be venturing deep into the Chaotic Region. This journey will take a long time. I will only bring Big Horn, Saixitia, and Thorsafi.

Once we’re gone, Horn Hime, you’ll be in charge of commanding all colossal beasts below the mythical level, excluding Baxia and Ghidorah. Continue collecting Life Crystals.

As for you, General Crab, your task is to guard the entrance to the rift world.

Yes, my king.

The black domain rippled around them as the female orca, still hovering in the air, nodded with a respectful squeak. The Blue Crab burbled with excitement, blowing bubbles.

The Dragon Emperor then looked toward the mountain-sized Dragon Turtle.

Baxia. Ghidorah. Both of you need to put in some effort. Fully absorb the energy within your bodies and break through to the peak of level 9.

As they were among the oldest companions to follow the Dragon Emperor, it still hoped to lift them along as it advanced.

The Dragon Turtle roared with a firm nod.

I will give it my all!

The Serpent’s nine heads roared in disorganized unison, each pair of eyes filled with determination.

Don’t worry, Ao Ba. We won’t sleep this time—we’ll work hard!

The Dragon Emperor nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the massive golden Longjia King.

Alicia, you will command all mythical colossal beasts and defend the territory.

Also, have Kerla and the others lead the Longjia army. Fully extract every resource from within our lands and feed it all to the Ancient Clams.

The area between the rift world, the territory of the Ancient Clam World, and the area formerly ruled by the Black Abyss Race stretched over a hundred thousand kilometers.

The golden Dapeng and Titanic Flame Whale, who had once occupied those regions, had already been slain and eaten by the Dragon Emperor or subdued by the titan-level Longjia King.

The domain now under their control was vast. Such an expansive territory undoubtedly held countless resources—natural treasures, rare minerals, and more.

Most of these weren’t useful for cultivation and couldn’t be eaten directly. However, they could be fed to the Ancient Clams to accelerate the condensation of their Divine Pearls, effectively forming a continuous production line.

The Longjia King bowed respectfully. "Understood, my king."

Perched atop the Dragon Emperor’s flowing black mane, the Purple Dragon roared with excitement.

Charge! The great Yiyi shall conquer the Chaotic Region!

The great Saixitia is invincible! Charge!

And don’t forget the great Thorsafi!

Behind the Dragon Emperor, towering like a small mountain, the Silver Dragon and the Golden-Blue Dragon roared with excitement, followed by the Kunpeng with its wings spread wide.

Hundreds of thousands of aliens and colossal beasts watched as four large and one small beast shot out from the rift world, quickly vanishing into the stormy sea.

This time, the Dragon Emperor’s venture deep into the Chaotic Region had one goal: to ascend to the ancient titan level, devouring every natural treasure and consuming every mythical and titan-level beast in its path.

The Kunpeng was being brought along for its treasure-seeking ability. The Silver and Golden-Blue Dragons, on the other hand, were there to help digest the resources below the law level—things that were no longer useful to the Dragon Emperor itself, but too valuable to waste.

With their two top-level abilities and peak king-level bloodlines, the two dragons still had decent growth potential and digestion speed. They could accompany the Dragon Emperor a little further on its journey.
