Chapter 15: The Awakening of the Ancient Dragon 5000

"Let me see what you really are."

It was the middle of the night in the unknown world, and darkness covered the sky, and in the middle of the lightless sky, a silvery mist swirled in mid-air, forming a cloud like a nebula.

Through the resonance of the power of steel, in just a few seconds, Joshua had already collected all kinds of coordinate information of the world in which Gu Long was located. Originally, he should have destroyed the life resonance brought by the activated ancient dragon's blood in his hand now, as Barnier and William said, and directly terminated this active contact, so as not to cause any bad consequences for the angry ancient dragon's counterattack, but he didn't intend to end this operation so simply.

Even in his previous life, Joshua had never seen an ancient dragon that could control thunder and lightning, and this time he encountered it, and he had already looked at it, so wouldn't it be a pity not to see what this ancient dragon looked like?

So the next moment, the ancient dragon buried under the gravel mountain peak suddenly felt that the peep who originally came from outside the void and traced it through its forged bloodline suddenly disappeared, not because the speed surpassed its perception, nor did it hide its own breath, and all means could not hide its ancient dragon that mastered the power of magnetic fields and thunder, which was the same power as her, but it was not known to it.

The ancient dragon used electromagnetic waves to scan the surroundings, but soon, it found that its reconnaissance was meaningless, because the enemy that had suddenly disappeared had reappeared, and the place of arrival was not elsewhere, just above it, the sky with yellow sand and strong wind.

It jerked its head up, but a silver iron fist had already descended like a meteor, and it had smashed down on its head!

Shrinking all his power back to the other side of time and space, and then violently releasing it through the resonance of the power of steel, Joshua, who easily created the disappearance and reappearance of this amorph, condensed his power into an entity, causing a steel giant fist tens of meters large to smash directly at the ancient dragon. It wasn't real steel, but a mixture of dust and gravel that condensed the surrounding dust and gravel with the force of steel, and then restrained it by magnetic fields and gravity, it was not indestructible, but it was enough to break through the mountain of gravel that covered the ancient dragon.

But what this iron fist faced was an angry dragon roar.

"Rumbling β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”"

Different from the fire dragon of the original realm, it is also different from the dragon of the astral realm, huge and abnormal, as if the loud sound of thunder exploding sounded from the deepest part of the earth, which is unique in this world, even in the multiverse, it is the only giant beast roar, and with this huge roar that no one has heard for thousands of years, the atmosphere began to crackle, the blue-red electric currents visible to the naked eye intertwined and exploded, and a huge arc of electricity flashed in the air, and in an instant, the dark night sky immediately thundered and rolled, roaring endlessly, Countless thunder pillars as thick as giant snakes descended from the sky and landed on the top of the gravel mountain where the ancient dragon was!

But after being bombarded by thousands of thunders, the seemingly fragile sand mountain did not disappear, but revealed its essence - a mountain of steel condensed by countless iron sands. It's just that its exterior is covered with a layer of ordinary gravel shell, and now under the control of the electric current, countless black iron sand began to move violently in accordance with the magnetic field like unrelated rivers, forming a spherical iron sand sandstorm, and flew straight up, towards the top of Joshua's falling iron fist!

Rumble! With a loud bang, the giant fist temporarily condensed by the power of steel was immediately annihilated in the collision, causing a huge silver mist to appear in mid-air, and beyond the void, the blood of the ancient dragon in Joshua's hand also evaporated and annihilated in a burst of lightning thunderbolt, leaving no trace.

The warrior was not surprised that his attack was crushed by the ancient dragon, as the primordial life of the world, their power was not something that the current humans could easily guess, but Joshua laughed unconcernedly, because no matter what, he had achieved his goal.

Through the remnants of steel power left in the unknown world, Joshua saw the true face of the ancient dragon - the black iron sand formed a giant spherical sandstorm with a diameter of more than ten kilometers, rotating rapidly under the rotation of the magnetic field, and behind this rapidly rotating iron sand, a huge and incomparable, comparable to the peak of the silver ancient beast suspended in the center of the sandstorm, its wings that covered the sky and the sun did not fan even once, but the magnetic field that was enough to distort everything was enough to support its weight, compared to its size, Even the Titans were young children.

The remnants of the steel power were rapidly annihilated under the raging ancient dragon thunder, and before it was completely repulsed, Joshua only had time to see the huge sharp horns, and the extremely cold, blue-blue electric dragon pupils.

Because of the stimulation of the warriors, the ancient dragon completely woke up, and once again it let out a huge dragon roar, and the huge power spread to every corner of the sky, and suddenly you could see that the sky turned into a sea of thunder, and countless sparks and lightning turned into waves, spreading to the end of the world, and even outside the world, huge fluctuations and even shaking time and space, and there was a trace of undetectable splash in the multiverse.

"Ah, gods! You're finally here again! ”

"The King of Ten Thousand Thunders, the Dragon God of Salvation! You've finally arrived again! ”

But at the moment when Joshua was contented to be repulsed, he suddenly heard a prayer of piety, the warrior could not understand the sound of those prayers, but he understood the meaning behind these words, which was the joy of seeing the god of longing, and the most sincere blessing and admiration, the evil god can never receive such a prayer, only the true god can enjoy this glory.

"Hey, there's someone in that world?!"

Before he could utter such an exclamation, Joshua's spirit completely withdrew from the unknown world and returned to the Mycrof continent, and when he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the angry faces of the two legendary mages.

"I said don't have a conflict with that ancient dragon - Joshua, why don't you follow the plan?!"

"There's no evidence that Elder Dragons are sapient, but even if they're just beasts, they're sure to remember your breath - we just want to see the Elder Dragon's form, appreciate its power, and touch its scales...... Of course, it's best to be able to dissect, but we're not going to fight the ancient dragon head-on! ”

William and Barnier are indeed angry, and Joshua's reckless actions can be said to have pushed himself directly to the opposite side of the ancient dragon, although the probability is very low, but God knows if the other party will also remember the breath of the two of them by the way? Although they were not afraid of the power of the ancient dragon, they also did not intend to fight each other.

In this regard, Joshua calmed the anger of the two legendary mages with just one sentence:

"I saw the true face of the ancient dragon, do you want to see it too?"

……

It took a few seconds to share the ancient dragon form in his mind with Barnier and William through a spiritual link, and Joshua didn't care about the two legendary mages who cheered like children, he recalled the unknown language he heard in his memory, and the situation in his surroundings, and fell into deep thought.

"The sand and gravel in that desert is not a natural formation, it is the remains of a material that has been completely broken down by electromagnetic forces...... It was more like a ruin than a dwelling place, formed by the battle between the ancient dragon and some other being. ”

In the laboratory, Joshua frowned and muttered, "So, where should the ancient dragon be recuperating from his injuries?" However, it seems that he has almost recovered, and is about to wake up, which is why he reacts to the previous experiments of Barnier and my stimulation. ”

Although it was only a guess, Joshua was confident that his observations could not be wrong. That huge desert is obviously unnatural, every piece of gravel is regularly decomposed by the same force, and the natural habitat of the silver-white ancient dragon that controls the thunder can never be a dry desert, it should live high in the atmosphere, dancing with the magnetic field of the whole world, with that powerful force, it can even never fall to the earth.

And it was a civilized world with life, and the fact that the ancient dragon could coexist with those beings proves that it should not be evil, and maybe it also has the wisdom to communicate...... It seems that because of curiosity, his actions are indeed too reckless.

Now, Joshua was left with only one question – where did that strange familiarity come from?

But soon, he found the answer to his question.

That's the taste of the abyss.

One hundred and sixty-two layers of the abyss, the original sea of poison, now the abyss of dragon sleep.

This is a highly toxic world where the continent collapses and the whole world sinks to the bottom of the sea, and the radiation and heavy metal pollution after the destruction of the world make the waters of the whole world full of poison that can easily kill life, and the terrifying negative energy spreads in the black and purple ocean, only some of the most tenacious evil poisonous insects and deformed giant snakes can survive in this harsh environment, even demons are unwilling to settle here.

But now, this quiet place, where there was no sound except for the hissing of poisonous insects, has become a dragon world full of dragon groans and roars.

Huge floating islands, suspended above the poisonous ocean under visible magical fluctuations, resemble giant bowls of concave rock. These islands draw poisonous water from beneath the surface of the sea and purify it through magic into drinkable water, which is gathered in the lake in the center of the island. Tens of thousands of dragons inhabit the rocky walls of these islands, living on clean water and organically cultivated food.

The five-colored dragons are living a difficult life in their new home, even if the poisonous insects and giant snakes do not attack them, the too harsh living environment still makes these dragons breathless - it is really breathless, in this atmosphere filled with countless poisonous dust, even the dragons need to rely on purification magic to be able to breathe, they can't even fly freely, they can only cower in their respective caves, and flap their wings in every kind of boredom.

And in the center of these floating islands, in the middle of one of the largest floating mountains, in the huge space in the belly of the mountain, three huge wills were silently confronting each other, and after a long time, one of them took the lead in speaking.

"I felt a tremendous force shake through time and space."

The one who spoke was a huge white dragon, the king of the white dragons, the [Lord of Frost] Bonnard hovered over his seat formed by bright ice crystals, and said in a slightly tired tone: "To be precise, it has a slight splash in the multiverse...... It is a power that belongs to the level of the dragon king, or even stronger, according to the words of humans, it is above the legend. This power is close to us, but it does not have the depraved breath of those demons. ”

"There are countless ancient and powerful beings lurking in the abyss."

On the other side, a black dragon also spoke slowly, and the leader of the black dragon, [Stygian Dragon] Keano, said in a slightly sharp voice: "Demon Lord, Abyss Lord, Ancient Creation, Destroying Remains, Monsters That End the World, or Corpses of Fallen Gods...... The Abyss is the graveyard of the multiverse, a gathering place for demons, and there is nothing unusual in it, not to mention a few monsters similar to us. ”

At this point, it lowered its pitch a little: "After all, aren't we just losers who have to retreat into the abyss?" ”

It seems that Keano is not interested in the unknown power that Bonnard speaks of.

But Bonnard didn't intend to end the conversation like this, and continued in a slow, tired voice, "I know, Keano, you've been searching the depths of the Poison Sea lately for magical substances that are useful to our people, but have found nothing. You're tired and disappointed, but that's not a reason to be decadent...... I pay attention to that power because I perceive that there is no rotten smell of decay in the world in which it is located. Although it is indeed located in the realm of the abyss, it can survive. ”

It emphasized: "Fit for the life of our dragon." ”

This immediately aroused Keano's interest, and the Lord of the Black Dragon urgently asked: "This is impossible-the abyss is a world that has been destroyed, how can there be life if you fall to this place?!" ”

"Yes, it's possible."

The King of the White Dragon said calmly: "If there is an ancient dragon, the incarnation of the crystal of steel from the beginning of the world, and the existence of these first lifeforms, then even the abyss may not be able to regain its vitality. ”

"Didn't we venture to the Sea of Poison because we heard that ancient dragons once inhabited it? Isn't it, Ritya? ”

The topic was led in another direction by Bonnard, and the person being questioned, the master of the blue dragon, [Endless Wind] Rettia was silent for a while, and then nodded: "I got the news that I heard that there is a giant python in the depths of the poisonous sea that is comparable to a god's strength. If it was an ancient dragon, then the fact that there were poisonous insects and sea snakes living in this dead world could also be explained...... It's a pity that even if there were, it would have left this world long ago. ”

"However, our people cannot afford to fail again. What if you find a world that is still alive? The battle with the ancient dragons will deplete the remaining strength of the three dragons, and if it fails, who will maintain the material circulation required by the tens of thousands of dragons in the dragon sleeping abyss? In that case, we will never have a chance to rise again. ”

In the face of Ritya's answer, Bonnard just gently shook his huge dragon head: "No, it's not you and me, but only me." ”

As he spoke, the huge white dragon spread its wings, and it raised its head, its gaze penetrating the mountain wall, looking at the purple-black poisonous sky of the Longmian Abyss. Bonnard said in a tired but firm tone: "I'm going to look for the source of that power fluctuation, to find the abyss world that may have vitality...... And you, stay in the abyss of dragon sleep, guarding our people. ”

"In this way, even if I fail, the five-colored dragon clan will not be broken and on the verge of destruction."

In the face of Bonnard's words full of determination, both Retia and Keano were silent. In this sentence, the Lord of the Red Dragon once said, and the King of the Green Dragon also said that the two former Dragon Kings gave everything they had for their group to find a new place to live, where no other race as powerful as humans lived, and they were lost in the process of exploring the multiverse, and they lost their traces, dealing a heavy blow to the Astral Dragon Clan, which was already gradually weakening.

But they are all working for a hopeful future, and no dragon would deny it.

Bonnard didn't wait for a reply from his companion, and it left the Floating Mountain directly through teleportation magic. And after hesitating for a moment, the black dragon Keano also opened the space-time gate. Before leaving, it turned to Ritya, the only one who remained silent, and said, "It is dangerous for Bonnard to go alone, I must assist him, Ritya, take care of this place...... This is the last gathering place of our clan. ”

With that, it also passed through the space-time gate, and went to the void to chase Bonnard's trail, leaving the blue dragon Rettia to stay in the silent floating mountain, silently watching the empty mountainside.

"Of course." It whispered, as if answering the two departed companions.

That's the only thing I can do.

The sixth abyss, the Molten Sea Hell.

For the first time, several demon lords who had returned from a campaign in the Otherworld were summoned to the fortress of the Valley of Tears in the center of the plane by the Abyss Lord and Demon King Goliath. No demon knew what they were discussing, only the most keen-eyed archdemon inside the fortress could sense it, and after that, there were three inconspicuous fluctuations in time and space that vibrated at the bottom of the fortress in turn.

The multiverse, the unknown world.

A fleet shrouded in darkness travels from the Void Fortress, navigating the ripples of time and space with the tide of the Great Demon Tide, but the target is already locked onβ€”a corner of the abyss that lies at the bottom of the world, the endless world graveyard. They sensed a familiar wave, the one of the prey they had been seeking hundreds of years ago.

"Both, I suddenly thought of something we had both overlooked."

In the world of Mycrof, in the experimental airship over the Great Ajax Mountains, Joshua found two legendary mages who were calculating the location of the world in which the ancient dragon was located. His face was solemn, and he said in a low tone: "Since the ancient dragon has awakened, then its power will naturally spread...... That's the most obvious beacon, and maybe we'll have to hurry up and find it. ”

"Because it's quite possible, and it's not just our side that wants to chase its trail."
