With a mighty flap of its wings, the towering black and gold dragon released its iron-claw-like grip, allowing the last gasping high-ranking legendary dragon to plummet from the sky.

Immediately, Saga lifted his head, gazing at the ongoing battle between the ancient rock dragon and the Red Dragon.

In the Dragon Soul Sanctuary, these colossal dragon shadows, though not as powerful as Saga himself, exuded an aura of might during battle that was no less intimidating.

The clash of the two demigod dragons rippled with a world-shattering momentum.

The earth was utterly torn asunder and melted into a vast lake of magma, while the clouds above seemed ablaze.

High-ranking legendary creatures often possess the ability to elementalize, a mature skill that significantly enhances their attributes when fully unleashed.

Saga’s Superheavy Battle Form, enveloped by Power Essence, was a similar kind of ability.

For an ancient dragon with demigod status, using such power was even more terrifying.

The ancient Red Dragon, like the primeval Red Dragon that first attacked Saga, also unfolded an elemental form.

A magnificent fire dragon, miles long from head to tail, covered the sky, its wings stirring up a fiery inferno that set the heavens alight, with a rain of fire cascading down beneath its shadow.

At the center of the molten lake on the ground, created by the ancient Red Dragon’s flames.

The ancient rock dragon, at the core of its being, conjured a colossal earthen elemental form made of countless piled stones, stretching miles like a towering dragon-shaped mountain, each movement shaking the earth, though much of its surface was already turned to magma by the Red Dragon’s fire, its presence waning with time.

At this moment, the two ancient dragons fought with a relentless ferocity.

The Red Dragon roared, its wings of flame sweeping down toward the ancient rock dragon in a dive.

As it swooped down, the ancient Red Dragon released its breath.

Billowing dragon flames cascaded like a galactic waterfall from the sky, sweeping toward the ancient rock dragon on the ground.

The ancient rock dragon looked up defiantly, staring at the oncoming Red Dragon, and opened its maw to unleash a high-frequency Dragon Breath composed of powerful shockwave ripples.

Boom!

The breaths of the Red Dragon and rock dragon collided fiercely.

During the clash of the ancient dragons, countless dragon flames and shockwaves mingled to form a ring-shaped devastating shockwave, obliterating everything around and creating an apocalyptic scene.

Watching this unfold, Saga’s eyelids twitched.

Truth be told, even though he knew the dragons here weren’t as formidable as they appeared, witnessing the demigod dragons’ spectacular and overwhelming attacks still instilled a sense of fear deep within.

The demigods’ might was indeed genuine.

Meanwhile, reflected in Saga’s golden pupils was the oncoming shockwave, and he took a deep breath, standing his ground without flinching.

Boom, boom!

The fiery ring swept past the black and gold dragon’s body, a torrent of force and heat rushing over him, but the intense heat was directly immunized by Saga’s strong resistance to fire, a trait from his mixed True Dragon heritage, while the shock and impact were completely blocked by the Force Field.

Saga stood unyielding, not retreating even a millimeter.

The subconscious fear and apprehension born from the demigods’ might dissipated at that moment.

During the battle between the ancient rock and Red Dragons.

No other dragon kind dared to approach them.

In the most chaotic and frenzied period of the war, even the bloodthirsty dragons refrained from getting too close.

Demigod creatures were already the pinnacle of the prime material world, each action carrying a terrifying force that could tear the heavens and split the earth, and facing their might was no easy feat.

Having had such a rare experience, Saga would be able to withstand the might of a demigod creature if he encountered one in the outside world, though, of course, merely withstanding their might was nothing to boast of, and opposing them would certainly not be a wise choice.

Exhaling a hot breath, Saga’s mind steadied.

“A demigod battle is a rare sight in the outside world.”

“Moreover, to be able to participate in it, this trip to the Dragon Soul Sanctuary was well worth it.”

The black and gold dragon shook its head and then, with a powerful beat of its wings accompanied by a sonic boom, its body shot up and rocketed away, heading straight for the ancient dragon battlefield.

At this time.

The ancient Red Dragon’s breath had overwhelmed the weakened rock dragon, engulfing it entirely.

Although the rock dragon had layered its body with hard stones, it could only barely hold on under the Red Dragon’s flames, layer by layer turning into flowing magma.

“Cadrov, turn to ash and dust in my dragon flames!”

The ancient Red Dragon’s roar echoed through the heavens, its nearly two-kilometer-wide wings casting a shadow over the sky, flapping wildly as the majestic fire dragon’s body bore down, its claws reaching out, aiming for the ancient rock dragon’s head.

“Leonobar, you damned Red Dragon scum, I will crush your bones.”

The rock dragon roared defiantly, its feet stomping the ground, its heavy and massive body rising upright, like a mountainous dragon claw striking upward at the oncoming ancient Red Dragon.

However.

Before the two ancient dragons’ attacks could collide, a streak of black and gold light shot from afar.

Buzz!

A hundredfold gravity burst forth.

The fire dragon, composed of fire elements, merely paused before withstanding the oppressive weight.

But the rock dragon below, made entirely of stone and weighing at least several billion tons, like a true mountain, suffered greatly, its own weight of hundreds of billions causing its body to crash to the ground, with countless cracks spreading across its body like lightning.

Because of the dragon souls’ obsession, the battle between the ancient dragons was utterly self-forgetting.

Even as Saga swept through all the other dragon kinds like a whirlwind, they paid him no heed.

Only now, as Saga personally intervened, did they notice this black and gold dragon, small in stature compared to their elemental forms, but with a sense of weight so heavy that it did not fear their might.

As the ancient rock dragon was suppressed to the ground by the gravity field.

The stronger Red Dragon had no time to rejoice before feeling a sharp pain in its forehead.

Swoosh!

The black and gold dragon, like a bullet fired from a gun, instantly penetrated the colossal fire dragon’s head, the wind pressure from its flapping wings distorting the dragon’s head, tearing it apart, and passing through.

“Where did this mixed Golden Dragon come from, so bold and ignorant, daring to meddle in the struggle of demigods!”

The flames surged, the fire dragon’s head restored, and then it furiously fixed its gaze on Saga, who had emerged on the other side.

Bang, bang, bang!

At the same time, the ancient rock dragon’s stony body shattered.

The nearly eighty-meter-long rock dragon abandoned its overly heavy form, emerging from within and also unleashing an angry roar at Saga.

“An ignorant mixed Red Dragon!”

Both ancient dragons now saw Saga as an enemy.

During the Dragonfall War era, the concept of hierarchy among dragon kinds was much stricter than it is now.

For an ancient dragon battle to be interfered with by a dragon kind that seemed barely legendary, especially when it had been injured, was seen as a great provocation to their Dragon Might.

Moreover, being mixed-blood was too hated in that era.

The Red Dragon saw him as a Golden Dragon.

The rock dragon, aligned with the Metal Dragon camp, saw him as a Red Dragon.

In any case, neither side was pleased.

“I will put an end to your endless feud.”

Being the focus of both ancient dragons, Saga spoke calmly.

As he spoke, he acted, once again penetrating the supermassive fire dragon, braving the scorching flames to destroy the fire dragon’s form from the inside out.

“You’re on a path to your own demise!”

The fire dragon was momentarily stunned, then let out a thunderous dragon roar.

Inside it, Saga’s vision was filled with endless flames.

Accompanied by the ancient Red Dragon’s roar, the flames moved without wind, compressing wildly, condensing into numerous solid crimson fire chains that wrapped around the black and gold dragon from all directions.

With these omnipresent, dense fire chains, there was nowhere to hide.

The black and gold dragon was quickly engulfed, wrapped up like a zongzi.

“You think you can just barge into my fire dragon elemental body? Foolish and ignorant!”

Buzz!

The densely wrapped crimson fire chains suddenly trembled, cracks appearing all over them.

Crack!

The fire chains twisted and shattered, the black and gold dragon spreading its wings, its horns majestic, using Magnetic Cold Dragon Might within the fire dragon.

The temperature plummeted, the flames forming the massive body weakened, and wisps of white frost spread inside and out, countering the flames.

This internal cold attack slowed the fire dragon’s body and weakened its breath.

Meanwhile.

The rock dragon outside was not idle, kicking the Red Dragon while it was down, seizing the moment of its sluggishness to launch a high-damage spell-like attack that was usually hard to hit.

Earthsplitting Rock Lance!

The rock dragon roared to the heavens, and the once blazing red sky suddenly darkened, a massive yellow spell circle appearing out of nowhere.

In the next instant.

A gigantic rock lance, kilometers long, shot out from it, tearing through the clouds and plunging into the fire dragon’s chest.

This earth-piercing rock lance, when it entered the fire dragon’s body, slyly locked onto Saga within.

Saga sensed the danger.

The ancient rock dragon was known for its physical defense, and this attack was one of its few with immense killing power. A direct confrontation was not a good idea, and although Saga was confident his Force Field could defend successfully, the consumption of Power Essence would be enormous.

The fire dragon’s body had a dimensional lock effect, making Psychic Step difficult to perform.

Saga gathered Power Essence, creating a massive repulsive force behind him, and with a flap of his wings, his form shot out like lightning, quickly escaping from within the fire dragon and avoiding the rock lance’s attack.

With both attack and defense maxed out.

Saga also possessed exceptional agility and maneuverability.

As a hexagonal warrior, he had no weaknesses.

As Saga left the fire dragon’s body, amidst the ancient Red Dragon’s furious roars, the gigantic rock lance drove the fire dragon’s massive body to the ground, nailing it to the surface.

In a normal battle.

The ancient rock dragon had for the first time made its archenemy suffer a significant loss.

But before it could rejoice, it saw a flash of black and gold light, rapidly approaching itself.

The black and gold dragon, only half the size of the rock dragon’s true form, charged forward aggressively.

The black sheen on its body flowed like liquid, thinning out, while a heavy, light-distorting superheavy dragon claw replaced it, viciously smashing into the rock dragon.

The rock dragon, not weaker than the Red Dragon in physique and even stronger in strength and defense, defiantly raised its massive stone claw, sweeping it towards Saga.

With its massive size, the stone claw was almost half the size of Saga.

Compared to that, Saga’s superheavy dragon claw seemed much less imposing.

But Saga was undaunted, not retreating an inch, and as they entered each other’s attack range, the superheavy dragon claw surged, colliding with the rock dragon’s stone claw.

Crash!

A deep, bell-like collision sounded.

Under the incredulous gaze of the ancient rock dragon, its stone claw cracked and shattered, pierced inch by inch by the thick black light of the superheavy dragon claw.

Saga unleashed a storm of attacks, shattering one of the rock dragon’s stone claws and not stopping there, turning most of its dragon arm into scattered rubble.

“Mixed-blood! I will kill you!”

The rock dragon roared in anger.

Its other intact stone claw suddenly blurred, vibrating at a high frequency, and struck Saga.

Boom!

Intending to rely on the Force Field to withstand the blow and then swiftly kill the rock dragon, Saga was sent flying.

The shockwave was not completely blocked by the Force Field, and a portion of it affected Saga’s body, stopped at the cost of cracks spreading on some dragon scales.

The demigod-level rock dragon, although only displaying legendary strength, had seen through a bit of the Force Field’s operation, using a complex and variable shockwave beyond Saga’s calculation to penetrate it.

The Force Field was not invincible.

When the opponent’s attack was too complex, beyond Saga’s understanding and defensive range, it was difficult to fully resist, and also when the attack’s killing power was too strong, simply brute-forcing beyond the defensive limit.

And in either case.

It usually occurred in battles that were too far beyond one’s rank.

In cases where the opponent was of the same rank or not much higher than Saga, there were few who could break his Force Field defense.

Saga estimated that before his Power Essence was exhausted, most high-ranking legendaries would not be able to break his Force Field defense, but the ancient dragons here were special, unable to display demigod combat power, yet their insight, experience, and understanding of various powers far exceeded that of normal legendaries.

With a powerful flap of his wings.

The black and gold dragon stabilized its retreating body, gazing at the rock dragon as it reformed its stone claw from the surrounding rubble, its golden dragon eyes shining brightly.

The feeling of battling the ancient dragons was entirely different from the sensation of facing a group of high-ranking legendary dragons alone.

The ancient dragons were incredibly resilient and could break Saga’s defenses, causing him harm, but it was precisely such battles that ignited Saga’s fighting spirit, making him more determined.

At this time.

The ancient Red Dragon gasped and growled, clutching the rock lance that had pierced its chest.

Surging flames rose, covering the entire rock lance and then melting it.

The gigantic fire dragon regained its wings and soared into the sky.

It stood upright, raising its claws high.

The flames that made up its body pulsed with life, concentrating along its arms to the front of its claws, compressing infinitely into two fireballs.

The kilometer-sized fire dragon’s body rapidly shrank.

All of its dragon flames converged on the fireballs in its claws.

The fireballs were only about ten meters in diameter, but the destructive fluctuations they emitted grew stronger, and their color gradually turned into a blinding white.

All the flames were compressed into the fireballs, and the ancient Red Dragon revealed its true form.

A dragon of similar size to the rock dragon, its scales a vivid red like blood, its gaze bloodthirsty and fierce.

“Mixed-blood Golden Dragon, rock dragon.”

“Descend to hell together and repent before the great Chromatic Dragon Queen.”

The Red Dragon roared, hurling the two white fireballs, locking onto their targets, and shooting towards Saga and the ancient rock dragon.

Boom!

The white fireball collided with the singularity ball that Saga simultaneously expelled, captured by the singularity ball, and as it expanded and compressed, gradually dissipated under the gravitational pull.

On the other side.

The ancient rock dragon built up thick armor on its body, and a mountainous barrier rose from the ground in front of it to counter the ancient Red Dragon’s attack.

But the barrier was penetrated.

The white fireball pursued the dodging ancient rock dragon, hitting it precisely, bursting into flames, igniting a layer of white fire all over the rock dragon’s body. The armor on its surface couldn’t withstand it, melting layer by layer, and the white fire grew more vigorous, nourishing itself on the rock dragon’s body, burning it more efficiently.

“In real history, this ancient rock dragon probably died from this move of the ancient Red Dragon.”

Watching the rock dragon enveloped in flames, Saga thought silently.

At the same time, a roar from the ancient rock dragon, filled with anger and unwillingness, pierced through the Dragon Soul Sanctuary, reaching the outside world.

The entire Dragon Soul Sanctuary trembled.

One by one, the dragon shadows that Saga had cleared began to flicker back to life, starting to revive.

Once the ancient rock dragon died, the Dragon Soul Sanctuary would reset directly to the beginning, continuing the cycle of the Dragonfall War filled with resentment and anger.

Exhaling deeply, Saga gazed at the ancient Red Dragon, which wore a victorious smile.

The black and gold dragon surged forward, intercepting the rock dragon before it was melted by the ancient Red Dragon, unleashing a fierce barrage of superheavy dragon claw strikes, shattering the weakened rock dragon’s body into pieces, killing it.

Because it was not killed by its archenemy, the Red Dragon.

The dragon shadows that emerged in the Dragon Soul Sanctuary flickered, the surrounding environment constantly changing, but not returning to the starting point, as if it had crashed.

Immediately.

Saga, who had just shattered the ancient rock dragon, surged up again, heading straight for the sky, pursuing the still-present ancient Red Dragon.

This ancient Red Dragon was the final boss within the Dragon Soul Sanctuary, stronger than the ancient rock dragon by a notch, but due to the previous continuous battles, its condition was now much worse.

In the tumultuous sanctuary.

Saga and the ancient Red Dragon continued their fierce battle.

The black and gold dragon had an indestructible defense, and though small in stature, its superheavy dragon body carried a force even stronger than that of the ancient Red Dragon, firmly suppressing it in close combat, which the Red Dragon excelled at.

After a period of intense fighting, the battered ancient Red Dragon took the initiative to distance itself from Saga.

“Mixed-blood Golden Dragon, follow the rock dragon into the abyss of death!”

Raging flames burned between the ancient Red Dragon’s fangs.

It opened its maw, unleashing a torrential Dragon Breath of fire.

On the other end, Saga’s eyes narrowed slightly, and the Annihilation Dragon Breath burst forth, effortlessly obliterating the Red Dragon’s breath, and under the disbelieving gaze of the Red Dragon, obliterated its entire head, then plowed a long trail through the Dragon Soul Sanctuary, almost piercing it through.

With the death of the final ancient Red Dragon.

The Dragon Soul Sanctuary began a strange transformation.

The sky and the earth twisted and turned like a painting, all colors merging together, and at the same time, the dead rock dragon reopened its eyes, its body floating up, turning into a translucent hue, its eyes no longer filled with endless resentment and anger, appearing lost and confused.

The entire Dragon Soul Sanctuary was nearly pierced by Saga.

These ancient dragon souls, mired in the hate-filled Dragonfall War, finally awakened.

Now in the sanctuary, only Saga, Tixil, and Charlotte remained, along with this ancient dragon soul.

Feeling Saga’s Red Dragon bloodline, the ancient dragon soul’s lost gaze sharpened, hostility emerging.

“Mixed-blood Red Dragon”

Noticing Tixil the Amethyst Dragon and Charlotte beside Saga, it grew even more furious.

“Amethyst Dragon, Golden Dragon, you stand with a mixed-blood Red Dragon, this is a shameful betrayal!”

The dragon soul’s fury reignited.

At that moment, Saga, having released his Superheavy Battle Form, the slight black sheen on the edges of his scales fading to reveal a Golden Dragon, said calmly:

“Ancient dragon predecessor, times have changed.”

“Don’t let anger cloud your judgment, don’t dwell on resentment and anger, and think about how long you’ve actually been dead.”

The ancient dragon soul paused, taken aback.

Then, Tixil and Charlotte also spoke:

“The infighting among different dragon kinds has long been forbidden by the Dragon God; the war has ended.”

The ancient dragon soul found it hard to believe Saga’s words, a mixed-blood Red Dragon, but Tixil and Charlotte made it somewhat doubtful.

“The war has ended?”

Its low voice carried a hint of bewilderment.

“Yes.”

After a moment of silence, with a touch of hope, it asked:

“Has the divine war between the Platinum Dragon God and the Chromatic Dragon Queen also ceased?”

“There have been some minor frictions between the two dragon deities, but a divine war hasn’t occurred for a long time.”

After receiving the answer, the ancient dragon soul fell into a long silence.

Some time later, its gaze swept over Saga and the others, and it spoke slowly:

“What is the relationship between different dragon kinds now, especially between the Chromatic Dragons and the Metal Dragons?”

Its gaze lingered on Saga.

“While they may not see eye to eye, there’s no deep hatred, and they wouldn’t fight to the death upon meeting.”

Saga responded frankly.

“Is that so?”

After another pause, the ancient dragon soul spoke in a complex tone:

“It must be nice to live in such an era.”

Having experienced the relentless bloodshed between different dragon kinds during the Dragonfall War era, the current state of mere mutual dislike seemed unimaginably peaceful to the ancient dragon soul.
