Ember Dragon

Within that enormous sphere, a hundred meters in diameter and a mixture of lightning and flames, an extremely scorching pillar of fire, like an incomparably sharp spear, pierced through it instantly with a blinding light that stung the soul. Accompanied by a crisp sound of air exploding, it broke through the lightning and pierced out from behind.

"how is this possible?"

Finally, a hint of fear and panic appeared in Gorazdela's eyes. She tried her best to activate the Destruction God's Thunder in the horn, constantly increasing the output of the lightning.

Under normal circumstances, such a lightning-fast breath would be enough to destroy a city, wipe out an army, and leave the rebels feeling utterly hopeless.

But her enemy is the Burning Emperor, the purest-blooded sub-Zudai Dragon in the material world.

Moreover, Caesus had been preparing for this attack for a long time. He had almost exhausted the power of the sun god in his body and also mobilized the Heart of Karix with all his might, mixing several drops of scalding hot divine blood into this breath.

"boom--"

With a deafening roar, dazzling flames and lightning intertwined as Kaisius's dragon breath tore through the tide of lightning and slammed into Gorazdra's chest.

"Casius!"

A agonizing roar erupted from the depths of Gorazdra's throat, shaking the heavens. This was the first time she had suffered such a severe blow since ascending to the status of a quasi-god.

The scorching pillar of fire, imbued with divine power, destroyed her scales, burned her thick flesh to ashes, and pierced a hideous hole in her chest, almost tearing her torso apart. Large patches of charred flesh were exposed, emitting a burnt smell, and her internal organs and bones were clearly visible.

Such injuries would be enough to send an ordinary dragon plummeting from the sky and killing it, but as an immortal quasi-god, Gorazdra possesses extremely tenacious vitality, and even burning its heart to ashes would not kill it.

Accompanied by flickering lightning, countless tiny particles converged towards the body of the Primordial Blue Dragon, the gushing blood quickly stopped, and the wound that pierced through its body began to heal rapidly.

"You cannot kill me. I will eventually break free from the shackles of matter and ascend to godhood!"

Gorazdra raised her dragon claws and chanted ancient dragon incantations, causing bolts of lightning to descend from the sky and converge on her enormous horns.

At this moment, disregarding the loss of her divinity, she fully activated Tiamat's blue dragon horn, unleashing the power of the destructive divine lightning.

The ancient blue dragon is now like a black hole that devours everything. Thunder rumbles and surges towards her body like a tide, forming a vortex thousands of meters in diameter, filling the entire sky with dazzling lightning.

The lightning bolts coiled around her body, constantly gathering and condensing, filling her broken flesh and covering her surface, forming a constantly surging "flesh and blood" filled with subtle light patterns.

The Primordial Blue Dragon has a ferocious and terrifying appearance, with its stark white bones exposed. However, its body expands rapidly, with lightning bolts transforming into its wings and endless thunderbolts into its body. It is no exaggeration to say that it blots out the sky.

Gorazdra raised his dragon claw, grasped a thick bolt of lightning, and roared with wide eyes, "Kaishus, to die under such overwhelming divine power is the honor of your life!"

"An elementalized body?"

Kaisius raised his head, his pupils reflecting brilliant lightning, and sneered, "You bluffing fool, do you think—you're the only one with a divine body?"

"Bang, bang, bang"

A deep, rhythmic heartbeat rang out, and the Heart of Karax within the Red Dragon Emperor began to pulsate like an engine, releasing immense divine power.

After obtaining the "God-like Dragon" profession and ascending to demigod status, Kaisius now possesses complete control over the heart and will no longer be driven mad by it.

As the heart of God pounded, an endless torrent of flames erupted from Kaisius's body, instantly enveloping the sky for thousands of meters in radius.

Those flames also condensed into an elemental body, causing the Red Dragon Emperor's figure to expand rapidly, reaching hundreds of meters in length, like an erupting volcano.

"Come on, Gorazdra!"

Cassius's eyes, mouth, and nose burst forth with dazzling flames, and a roar accompanied by an explosion erupted from deep within his throat: "Now it's—round two!"

"Are these your last words, Alien Dragon?"

Before he finished speaking, Gorazdra flapped his wings of lightning, looked down from above, and swung his dragon claws to hurl the spear of lightning formed from thousands of bolts of lightning.

"boom!"

Thunder roared as it hurtled toward the Red Dragon Emperor's head. Kaisius took a deep breath and unleashed a torrent of dragonfire, scattering the bolt of lightning through the air.

But the next moment, accompanied by lightning and thunder, a violent storm, and churning dark clouds that retreated rapidly, the Primordial Blue Dragon, dragging a torrent of lightning, swooped down with overwhelming force.

"Ow—"

The two colossal beings with divine bodies collided once more, sparks flying, flames shooting out, and powerful shockwaves swept across the sky, unleashing terrifying storms that swiftly ravaged the earth.

Kaisius swung his dragon claws with all his might, viciously grabbing at the wound on the chest of the Primordial Blue Dragon. His limbs were exceptionally well-developed, with bulging muscles like iron balls squeezed together. His sharp dragon claws roared in, piercing through the Thunder Armor and tearing off large chunks of flesh.

"Blue Dragon, who gave you the courage to fight me hand-to-hand!"

"Ow—"

Gorazdra screamed, twisting its body and desperately flapping its dragon wings to escape. As it turned, its thick tail, propelled by the upward momentum, lashed out from below with a thunderous roar.

But Kaisius was completely unafraid. He used his powerful forelimbs to grab the tail that was whipping towards him in mid-air, opened his blood-red maw to reveal sharp teeth covered in dragon flames, and bit down without hesitation.

"Stab!"

First came a series of crackling explosions, the lightning covering it was shattered, and the flesh inside was torn apart by sharp teeth. Broken scales flew everywhere, and warm dragon blood gushed out.

"Damn alien dragon—you're asking for it! Let go!"

Gorazdra raised its head and roared, its horns pointing upwards, as countless bolts of lightning struck down, bombarding the Red Dragon Emperor's body in an attempt to force it to relent.

"boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

Bolts of lightning struck Kaisius mercilessly, leaving charred marks on his head, neck, and back, and causing much of the flesh and blood formed from the flames to dissipate.

But Kaisius held on tightly to the ancient blue dragon's tail, his claws gripping its body, refusing to let go no matter how much Gorazdra struggled.

Enraged, Gorazdra tucked its wings, slammed the Red Dragon Emperor's body into the ground, and the two colossal creatures, entangled together, crashed into the mountainside. A deafening tremor shook the earth, and the nearly thousand-meter-high mountain crumbled and collapsed. But Kasius remained unmoved. To a red dragon with an immortal body, such physical damage was insignificant; at most, a few broken bones and scales would be shattered, which would heal in no time.

There is only one thing that matters most now—defeating Gorazdela and winning this war!

Thunder roared deafeningly. Amidst the ruins of the mountains, now reduced to rubble, the Primordial Blue Dragon and the Red Dragon Emperor clashed. The wound on the dragon's tail grew larger and larger, blood gushing continuously from the broken end.

Finally, the sound of flesh and bone being torn apart echoed through the sky, and the thick tail was ripped off!

Gorazdra howled to the sky, his vertical pupils flashing with blinding lightning, his eyes revealing extreme rage and madness.

"How dare you blaspheme against the divine body! I will kill you!"

She opened her mouth as if she had lost her mind, biting at the Red Dragon Emperor's thick neck. Her mouth was filled with crisscrossing arcs of electricity, emanating a terrifying aura of destruction.

"Tsk tsk, you're daydreaming again. It seems you've been blinded by your dream of becoming a god." Kaisius sneered, flapping his wings and easily dodging the fatal bite.

But Gorazdra was incredibly fast. It quickly turned its head, bared its teeth, stretched out its head, and bit down hard on the Red Dragon Emperor's right wing.

"Crack!"

Lightning exploded, the air burst open, and a crisp sound rang out. The flames covering the wings suddenly dissipated, and even the wing bones were bitten off by the sharp teeth. The entire wing drooped limply.

Intense lightning crackled around Kaisius's dragon body, and powerful currents coursed through him, causing him to tremble slightly and even his scales to burst open.

Intense pain assaulted Kaisius's brain, causing a splitting headache and dizziness, but he knew—this was also the best opportunity to defeat the ancient blue dragon.

Entangled in surging arcs of electricity, Kaisius closed his eyes and slumped to one side, seemingly having temporarily lost consciousness.

"Hahahaha, alien dragon, how can you possibly contend with me now?!"

"Kill you—"

A piercing roar emanated from the depths of the ancient blue dragon's throat, as it bit down hard on the red dragon emperor, while thousands of lightning bolts gathered on the massive horn at the tip of its nose.

In the sky, dark clouds rolled and lightning flashed. Under the control of Tiamat's horns, the massive thunderbolts formed a blue-silver pillar a hundred meters in diameter that pierced the sky, about to crash down and completely destroy the Red Dragon Emperor.

However, at that moment, Caesus, who had been feigning unconsciousness, suddenly opened his eyes. Flames shot out from his pale golden vertical pupils. He roared and pounced on the Primordial Blue Dragon, suddenly extending his dragon claws and grabbing the huge horn that was surging with lightning at an extremely fast speed.

Through observation during the battle, Kaisius has discovered Gorazdra's weakness.

The horns of this ancient blue dragon are the divine body of Tiamat, transcending the essence of the material plane. Like a phantom from a parallel world, it is utterly indestructible and untouchable.

However, when unleashing the full power of the Destruction God's Lightning, this horn will briefly appear in a materialized form on the material plane—and this is the precious opportunity to completely defeat her!

Kaisius grabbed the horn of the ancient blue dragon, ignoring the crackling lightning in his palm, raised his head, and grinned at Gorazdra, revealing an extremely ferocious smile.

"I got you."

"What? How could this be—"

Gorazdra's expression changed drastically. The arrogance and pleasure in her eyes vanished instantly, replaced by surprise and fear. She struggled to twist her head, trying to break free from Kaisius's claws.

But Kaisius used all his strength, almost pressing his entire dragon body down on it, firmly suppressing the ancient blue dragon and rendering it unable to move.

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for showing no mercy!"

A ruthless glint flashed in Gorazdra's eyes. If all the destructive lightning bolts from the sky were to strike, Kaisius would surely die, but she, with her lightning constitution, was absolutely certain of surviving.

"Join me in this feast of destruction, alien dragon—" Gorazdra shouted fervently.

"boom!"

A deafening roar of thunder, the lightning gathered in the sky and drawn by Tiamat's horns poured down like an inverted ocean, engulfing the two intertwined dragons and lashing their bodies with fury.

"Ow!"

Amidst this terrifying, destructive lightning, Caesus let out a painful roar. He felt as if he were being torn apart bit by bit, with thousands of silver needles piercing his dragon body. Everything on his body—scales, flesh, and internal organs—disintegrated, cracked, or even melted in this terrifying lightning, turning into countless tiny ashes that spread from his body.

Under such thunder, Gorazdra's body was also suffering, but as a blue dragon with ancestral blood, the renowned "Thunder Tyrant," her lightning resistance was far greater than that of Kasius, and she could obviously withstand the impact of this destructive divine lightning for longer.

Kaisius gritted his teeth, his face contorted in a terrifying grimace, his narrow, vertical pupils flashing with a cruel and resolute light.

Despite the relentless bombardment of thunder, his dragon claws not only did not loosen, but tightened even more. Even as the horns continuously released terrifying lightning, scorching his palms black and leaving them bloody and mangled, Kaisius refused to loosen his grip.

He knew very well that this was a life-or-death situation; it was either him or her!
"Break it off—!"

The Red Dragon Emperor pressed his left claw heavily against Gorazdra's upper jaw, while his right claw gripped the massive horn. His forelimb muscles bulged, veins popped, and he opened his ferocious maw, letting out a hoarse roar.

A tidal wave of lightning engulfed his entire body, relentlessly eroding the Red Dragon Emperor's form, illuminating his entire body so clearly that his blood vessels and bones were visible.

Under Caesus's immense strength, tiny cracks appeared on Tiamat's horns, from which evil, destructive divine power surged forth.

In contrast, Gorazdra's expression grew increasingly terrified, filled with panic as she cried out in disbelief, "Impossible! This is the divine body of Her Majesty Tiamat, a demigod dragon! You could never—"

Kaisius suddenly exerted force, his left claw pounding the ancient blue dragon's head, while his right claw used the strong reaction force to forcefully break off its horns.

"Click——"

A crisp sound echoed through the sky as the Red Dragon Emperor snapped off the massive horn. Crystalline fragments flew through the air, and blinding lightning shot out from them, swirling around Caesus's dragon claws.

Gorazdra's dragon horn was broken off at the tip of its nose, and it no longer looked majestic, appearing rather disheveled.

Her face contorted with madness as she stretched out her dragon claws, her chest heaving violently, her desperate eyes blazing with boundless rage and hatred: "No—" (End of Chapter)
