The Crimson Blood Lake exploded, and a giant dragon living within it soared into the sky.
This dragon appeared to be tens of thousands of zhang in size, its entire body covered in ancient crimson-gold dragon scales. It soared through the four directions, possessed four claws, and had two dragon horns on its head, bearing the appearance of a dragon—a dragon race creature evolving toward a pure-blooded True Dragon.
Moreover, this was a demon dragon at the Great Power realm. Though not as massive as those tens of thousands of miles long outside the Ten Heavens Ancient Domain, its demonic body was far more condensed and formidable within this heaven and earth environment suppressed by the Emperor's Dao.
From its body flowed a thick dragon's majesty that pressured the heavens and earth, even causing this stretch of heaven and earth to grow heavy and still. Everyone could feel an unprecedented oppressive force.
"What a powerful demon dragon!"
The young geniuses on the thirty-six divine ships all changed color. Under the pouring of that vast dragon's majesty, they felt as if the void had turned into a tangible swamp, the air sucked dry, a sense of suffocation emerging—extremely oppressive.
The ten-thousand-zhang demon dragon soared through the Nine Heavens, its mountain-range-like dragon body undulating amidst boundless dark clouds, rising and falling. Its massive, mountain-like dragon head slowly lowered, two thick, long dragon whiskers constantly dancing. Its enormous golden dragon eyes looked down at the numerous Heavenly King-level divine ships below, focusing especially on the ball of divine radiance in Hua Yuntian's hand at the lead.
It could sense that within this ball of divine radiance, there was a trace of dragon race aura that made even its own dragon blood boil. Moreover, that dragon race aura made it tremble with an indescribable closeness, a closeness thicker than blood.
And within the ball of divine radiance was precisely a Dragon Egg.
This Dragon Egg was its own unhatched child.
So it was them—they had infiltrated its dragon palace and stolen its Dragon Egg.
"You have immense audacity, daring to steal this sovereign's child. Today, everyone shall die!"
Boom—
Boundless Great Power divine might erupted, winds and clouds swept, and phenomena instantly manifested, vast and mighty across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. The thick demon dragon body dove down, its dragon claws pouncing toward Hua Yuntian in the center, aiming to kill this person and reclaim its Dragon Egg.
The vast dragon's majesty descended overwhelmingly, terrifying and boundless. The numerous young geniuses all completely paled. This demon dragon was a peerless existence at the Great Power realm; they were far from its match.
However, Hua Yuntian stored the ball of divine radiance into his internal space, whooshed into the sky with a loud laugh filled with indescribable arrogance, his black hair exploding with power. On his body, nine True Dragon phantoms actually manifested, accompanied by terrifying divine might, directly colliding with the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon.
Boom—
Heaven collapsed and earth shattered. The dense, layered dark clouds instantly dispersed, revealing thick spatial cracks, extremely terrifying.
Within, the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon's massive demonic body trembled violently, its diving momentum completely shattered, while Hua Yuntian was slammed into the Crimson Blood Lake, exploding with towering waves, extremely fearsome.
Clearly, in a frontal collision, Hua Yuntian was no match for the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon.
However, Hua Yuntian soon soared into the sky again, completely unharmed, only his golden luxurious robes shattered, revealing a set of golden battle armor worn on his body. Imprinted on it were nine True Dragons, flashing with golden divine radiance, resonating with the nine True Dragons manifesting on his body's surface, appearing extremely majestic and extraordinary.
He looked up at the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon and laughed heartily: "Truly worthy of being a Crimson Scale Demon Dragon that has lived for fifty thousand years. Even this prince's Imperial Dragon Qi cannot match it. But if I obtain your Dragon Soul and dragon pearl, refine your dragon blood, it will surely allow this prince to advance further, thoroughly condense my Imperial Dragon Qi, achieve great success in my divine art. Even ascending to the Heaven Ranking would be within reach."
"Imperial Dragon Qi... you are from the Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty of the Ninth Heaven Ancient Domain." Hearing this, the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon's enormous golden pupils slightly narrowed.
The Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty was an immortal imperial dynasty that cultivated Imperial Dragon Qi. Its dynasty's founding ancestor, Great Emperor Taihua, once created a world-shaking, peerless Emperor Scripture—the Imperial Dragon Scripture.
Only the imperial clan bloodline descendants of this immortal imperial dynasty, especially direct lineage members, were qualified to cultivate such an Emperor Scripture as the Imperial Dragon Scripture.
When cultivated to a certain degree, one could cultivate Imperial Dragon Qi.
This Imperial Dragon Qi would contain a trace of the imperial clan bloodline's majesty, thus extremely domineering, possessing the most terrifying offensive power.
However, cultivating Imperial Dragon Qi was not as easy as imagined, especially cultivating nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi like Hua Yuntian. Even throughout the entire Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty's history, it was rare, enough to prove Hua Yuntian's monstrous talent.
It was said that cultivating the Imperial Dragon Scripture to its extreme, the evolved Imperial Dragon Qi would transform into True Dragons soaring through the Nine Heavens.
And it was worth mentioning that if one could refine a Dragon Soul into the Imperial Dragon Qi, it would greatly enhance the Imperial Dragon Qi's power, extremely terrifying.
Hua Yuntian said arrogantly: "You finally see it too. You know enough. But you also know that the Imperial Dragon Qi cultivated by my Hua Clan Imperial Dynasty requires Dragon Soul power. Now, this prince still lacks the final strand. And though you are not a pure-blooded True Dragon, you are considered a demon dragon with relatively pure dragon blood among the dragon race. Your Dragon Soul is strong enough, qualified to become this prince's final Dragon Soul."
"Submit obediently, offer your Dragon Soul, and this prince can spare your Dragon Egg. Moreover, being able to become this prince's Dragon Soul, assisting this prince in achieving great ambitions, is also your fortune. In the future, you can follow this prince to dominate this Ten Heavens Ancient Domain, looking down on past and present—wouldn't that be better?"
"Wishful thinking! Seeking death!"
The Crimson Scale Demon Dragon roared, shaking heaven and earth, diving down again, carrying vast and boundless dragon's majesty.
"Want to kill me, Hua Yuntian? You're not qualified. Let this prince properly fight you, Crimson Scale Demon Dragon."
Hua Yuntian laughed heartily, his body radiating nine divine dragon phantoms—the Imperial Dragon Qi he cultivated, extremely terrifying. Each strand resembled a True Dragon, containing terrifying power, easily tearing the void, coiling around his body as he soared into the sky, divine might overshadowing the world, fiercely colliding with the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon.
Heaven collapsed and earth shattered, the void massively torn!
This time, facing the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon, he was still blasted into the lake water, but soon charged up again. The nine strands of Imperial Dragon Qi roared and howled, as if nine True Dragons existed eternally, possessing the power of nine dragons, extremely powerful. Even the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon found it difficult to kill him.
Moreover, the golden battle armor on Hua Yuntian's body was even more extraordinary. Even under the Crimson Scale Demon Dragon's dragon claw strikes, it was difficult to break through its defense and inflict serious injury.
"Truly worthy of being a super Heaven's Pride ranked 103rd on the Earth Ranking, also a high-level young generation's supreme at the third level of Great Power. Facing a fifth-level Great Power Crimson Scale Demon Dragon, he remains completely unscathed—truly formidable."
The five young Heaven's Prides beside Ye Chen all drew cold breaths.
This was the terror of an Earth Ranking super Heaven's Pride. To enter it, one needed at least Great Power realm combat power, and was also a high-level young generation's supreme—how could they not be terrifying?
The Crimson Scale Demon Dragon was absolutely a dragon race existence difficult to match within the same realm, yet still could do little to Hua Yuntian, showing a glimpse of such a strong person's fearsomeness.
Simultaneously, Hua Yuntian shouted loudly: "Take action! Capture the demon dragon!"
