Yun Yi hovered above Penglai Island, his gaze slowly sweeping over the thousand-foot-long true dragon formed by the fusion of Ji Canghai and the Sea God—he examined every part of it carefully, from its horns and eyes to its scales, claws, and tail.

This was indeed the first time he had ever seen a real dragon in person.

Such beings had never existed in the previous two worlds.

Opposite, the giant blue dragon coiled in mid-air slowly turned its vertical pupils, and the golden light patterns deep within its pupils trembled violently.

Ji Canghai's consciousness locked onto Yun Yi through the dragon's eyes—he recognized this person.

This is the person who, with a single sentence, condemned the twelve reincarnators under his command to death; this is the person who caused the East Sea Alliance, which he had painstakingly built up over several years, to collapse; this is the person who forced him to abandon his physical body and merge with the Sea God.

And now, this person is standing right in front of me.

His expression was calm, with no murderous intent or anger in his eyes, only a faint curiosity, like examining a novel object.

This kind of gaze was more unbearable for Ji Canghai than any mockery.

He gave up so much—an equal contract, twelve teammates, even his physical body as a "human being"—yet he couldn't earn their respect.

Now that he has transformed into a dragon, having devoured all the fortune of the East Sea and metamorphosed into a true dragon unlike any other in this world, the way the other party looks at him remains unchanged:

It's like looking at an object, something that's slightly interesting but still not worth mentioning.

Such a gaze is more painful than the other party's mockery.

The dragon opened its mouth, and its roar shook the heavens.

The deep blue sound waves materialized and spread in all directions from above Penglai Island.

Wherever it passed, seawater overflowed, clouds tore apart, and space trembled.

People along the East China Sea coast who had just escaped the tsunami knelt down again, covering their ears and howling in pain.

Before the dragon's roar subsided, the giant dragon had already begun to move.

The thousand-foot-long dragon coiled once, its four five-clawed dragon feet simultaneously shattering the water and clouds beneath its feet, and the entire dragon transformed into a dark blue lightning bolt, rushing towards Yun Yi.

The dragon's tail indirectly connected to the Beast Taming Soul Seal during the attack—the Nine Dragons United Seal, the strongest strike based on the ten-thousand-year faith in the Sea God and fueled by the entire fortune of the East Sea.

He once used this seal to sink a continent in a certain world; now, wielding it in his dragon form, its power is more than ten thousand times greater.

The nine soul imprints intertwined in the air to form a huge cage, which descended simultaneously from nine directions.

Wherever the cage passed, space was forcibly distorted by the laws of beast taming, even isolating Yun Yi from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Yun Yi didn't dodge, or even move.

He simply extended his right hand from his sleeve, fingers spread, palm facing the soul-imprint cage that loomed overhead.

His lips parted slightly, and he uttered two words:

"ban."

The decrees of Heaven and Earth are law.

When used in its true form, its power is even greater.

The Soul Imprint Cage remained motionless, three feet in front of his palm.

The eerie blue light flowing across the surface of the nine soul imprints dimmed at a visible speed, and the Beast Taming Laws began to collapse under the suppression of the Heavenly Decree.

Cracks spread from the edges to the center, and a moment later, the cage turned into countless dark blue specks of light, which were scattered by the sea breeze.

The dragon's vertical pupils suddenly contracted—his Nine Dragons United Seal, which he had exerted with all his might, was as fragile as paper in the face of these two words.

He didn't believe it, and he refused to accept it.

With the fortune of the East China Sea and the protection of the sea god's millennia-old faith, how could he possibly not be able to catch a single word from the other party?

The dragon let out an even more ferocious roar, its thousand-foot-long body suddenly flipping in mid-air, its tail sweeping across.

This was no ordinary physical attack—the space was torn apart along the path of the dragon's tail, revealing countless fine void cracks, and turbulent currents surged out, tearing the clouds above Penglai Island into pieces.

A dark blue light shone from the end of the dragon's tail, a testament to his gamble on the entire fortune of the East Sea.

If this strike lands, not only will Penglai Island be breached, but the bottomless trench beneath it will also be pierced.

The resulting earthquake and tsunami were enough to reshape the entire east coastline.

As Yun Yi watched the dragon's tail draw closer, he clenched his outstretched right hand into a fist.

He did not use the decree of Heaven and Earth.

He also wanted to see just how strong his physical body really was at that moment.

He slammed his right fist into the dragon's tail.

A very thin and faint golden light membrane of law was covering the surface of the fist—that was the effect of the Law Nascent Soul opening its eyes in the dantian and adding the power of law to its body.

This punch had no fancy moves; it was simply the purest punch from the pinnacle of this realm.

But the moment the fist was thrown, the space in front of the fist was compressed by the power of the law, creating a visible indentation. The spatial folds at the edge of the indentation spread outward like ripples.

The fists meet at the heels.

There was no sound—because the sound was too loud, exceeding the limits of human hearing.

At this moment, the shock wave blew a hole thousands of miles in circumference into the clouds above Penglai Island. The cloud walls at the edge of the hole were straight and sharp, as if they had been cut by an invisible knife.

The sea around the island exploded simultaneously, and the seawater was thrown hundreds of feet high, forming a ring of water.

The dragon's tail was smashed back by a punch, and the tip of the tail shattered, turning into countless dark blue light spots that dissipated.

The dragon's thousand-foot-long body was thrown backward by the residual force, tumbling several times in the air before it barely managed to regain its balance.

For the first time, disbelief appeared in the dragon's eyes—he had transformed into a dragon, devoured all the fortune of the East Sea, and stood at the pinnacle of this world.

Why can't I even withstand a single punch?

Why is the gap still so large?

Yun Yi withdrew his right fist.

The layer of law-based light membrane on the fist surface remained intact, without even a crack.

He glanced down at the back of his hand, then looked up at the giant dragon that was coiling its body around in mid-air again.

His voice was soft when he spoke, yet it pierced clearly through the howling sea wind and reached Ji Canghai's ears:

"So that's what gives you the confidence to stay?"

"It's not that great."

The tone was flat, not sarcastic, but simply a statement.

The dragon fell silent.

After a brief and oppressive silence, the golden light patterns in the dragon's eyes suddenly trembled violently, more violently than ever before.

Ji Canghai's consciousness roared wildly inside the dragon's body—not because he was defeated, but because the other party's tone was too calm.

That calmness wasn't feigned; it came from the bottom of his heart—he genuinely believed he was weak.

On what grounds?

Would someone at that level still consider a group of ants as their own?

Would someone with such power still feel that the things they gave up are worth cherishing?

Hasn't he given up enough?

He bet everything, lost everything, and then the other party told him – you're no good.

The dragon opened its mouth, and its roar carried a hint of hoarse madness.

A deep blue dragon flame surged from his throat, engulfing Yun Yi.

Wherever the dragon flames passed, the air was directly burned into a plasma-like blue mist, and even the space itself was burned with fine cracks.

Yun Yi shook his head, raised his right hand, and gently tapped his index finger in the air.

A faint golden ripple appeared where the fingertip touched the ground, and the ripple spread out, completely engulfing the oncoming dragon flames.

Then he spoke for the third time:

"Destroy".

One word.
