Chapter 2105 Lord of the Dragon Vein
"Zod? Zod the Great Beast God?"

"The first hybrid, the sole Beast King who unified all orcs, almost transformed into a true god, but was dragged down by his own savagery and bestiality, and was ultimately defeated by the Fairy Kingdom—the Great Beast God Zod?"

"It felt like they started mocking me from the very beginning."

Zod shook his head, as if frustrated by Blazer's arrogance in trying to win the verbal exchange.

"The first mixed race is questionable. I may just be the first to grow up or the first to become famous. As for the others, there's not much else that's special."

Why do we always think of things as so special? Special often means complicated, and complicated things bring more doubts and misunderstandings?

"Like a furnace of souls."

Blaze's pupils contracted sharply. The Soul Furnace—this was the signature power of the Great Beast God, the very essence of the Great Beast God. Even the current Great Red Dragon Beast God was born because of the power of the Soul Furnace.

But Zod himself said that it was not a special power, and that they had misunderstood.

A guess came to mind.

"Could it be... that the Soul Forge is... that you are the Blessed One!?"

This is a very simple, almost obvious answer: why would they be so awestruck by the power of the Soul Forge?

Because it achieves almost the same thing as blessing, it can absorb other soul flames without hindrance or hidden dangers, and gain power from them.

They racked their brains trying to figure out what the Soul Forge was, but they never thought that it was a blessing.

If Zod, the Great Beast God, was a blessed being, then many of the things he did can be explained.

The reason Zod was able to unify all the orc tribes was not because he was invincible, but because he would never die no matter how many times he lost. He would be resurrected, become stronger, and continue to challenge until he won.

The reason why this is not special is that although blessed people are rare, in any era, they are far from being special in the eyes of other blessed people, or even strangers today; they are merely considered basic.

What shocked Blaze even more was that Zod had done something similar to him, accumulating power and deeds to transform into a god as a blessed one, only failing at the last step.

How did Kozod share his blessing with other orcs? This is something that countless people have studied for hundreds of generations but have simply given up on...

It is precisely because it is impossible to do so that this power is called a blessing.

Boom——

The tremors from above created countless ripples in the underground lake, jolting Blaze awake. Through visual sharing, he could see what was happening in the Goblet of Fire.

The Greenlanders have already engaged in battle with the grey and red dragon.

Although the Great Red Dragon had gathered all the necessary elements and was even given the title of Great Red Dragon Beast God, it was still mostly grayish-white because the [Gungnir] it had thrown had pinned it to the Great Beast God's Goblet of Fire, preventing it from completing the final transformation.

However, [Gungnir] only confined the Great Red Dragon Beast God within the Great Beast God's Goblet of Fire. Inside the Great Beast God's Goblet of Fire, the Great Red Dragon Beast God could move freely, and because it could nullify almost all attacks through dust, even Guild Master Zero couldn't do anything about it and could only watch helplessly as it resonated with the Great Red Dragon Totem within the Great Beast God's Goblet of Fire.

At that very moment, besides Gungnir, Greenland, which remained in the Goblet of Fire of the Great Beast God, became the penultimate step, and the true Great Red Dragon appeared.

Only one thing can resonate with the Great Red Dragon totem. As long as the Great Red Dragon transformed from Greenland exists, the Gray Great Red Dragon cannot be the sole Great Red Dragon totem. The entire Goblet of Fire of the Great Beast God entered a state of stagnation due to the appearance of the Great Red Dragon transformed from Greenland. The boiling, lava-like patterns stopped, and with them, the moment of the Gray Great Red Dragon's ascension to godhood also stopped.

The gray and red dragons then reassembled, enraged, and began to fight, simultaneously becoming vulnerable to attack.

However, the Great Red Dragon's transformation lasts only three minutes. After three minutes, although it will transform into a more powerful Seraph form, the gray Great Red Dragon will revert to its invulnerable state.

If this drags on, the gray dragon will still be able to resonate with the red dragon totem, thus influencing the entire orc territory and even the whole world.

Now is not the time to ponder these ins and outs; the question is what the great beast god Zod wants to do now.

Blazer's eyes darted around, scanning the surroundings.

The Grey Dragon is invincible because it was born from the Great Red Dragon totem. It is like a totem incarnation, and it is now moving from being a byproduct of the totem incarnation to becoming the main entity.

Consider the process of the gray-red dragon's birth. It also involved the dragon vein, but the root cause was that the Great Beast God's Cup of Fire suppressed the source of the dragon vein. To destroy the gray-red dragon god, the only way is to awaken the power of the source of the dragon vein and extinguish the Great Beast God's Cup of Fire.

Blaze lowered his head, his golden eyes peering through the clear water into the depths of the underground lake. What appeared to be rocky water was actually a coiled dragon, a serpentine dragon similar to the Great Dragon.

Just as they had guessed, there was indeed an incarnation of the dragon vein totem beneath the source of the dragon vein. No, it was a more advanced form than the stamped pattern that resembled a totem incarnation; it was the totem itself, the true incarnation of the dragon vein.

However, the dragon vein's incarnation now sits at the bottom of the water, devoid of any vitality, like just an empty shell, its soul gone.

Blaze suddenly looked up at Zod. He remembered the story Lottie had told about the Great Beast God, who had taken over the altar originally built for the High Prince and the Ancient Dragon Princess, and also seized the power of the Dragon Source. He spread his faith, centered on the Dragon Source, throughout the entire orcish territory, and thus became a god.

Zod seemed to have read Blaze's mind, turned his head to the side, and patted the back of his neck.

Do you want it?

Will you give it to me?

"There's no such thing as a free lunch. This is my power." Zod curled the corners of his mouth, a hint of provocation in his hearty smile.

"Come and take it yourself if you want it."

Boom——

Thunder roared through the underground space, splitting the tranquil underground lake in two.

Because of the interconnectedness of the totems, he was forced into a state between man and god, but in doing so, his power was released.

Blazer's expression changed as Zod caught his fist firmly.
