The Bronze Dragon, having narrowly escaped death, stretched out its claw and vigorously rubbed its eyes.

It still couldn’t quite believe that before it stood the Golden Heart.

But no matter how it looked, the image of the Golden Dragon in its field of vision overlapped with that of the Hatchling Dragon champion of yesteryear, with no difference in appearance or even in the gaze and demeanor.

Truly, the young legend of Saga Alzhus.

“Bronze Dragon, how are your injuries?”

The low rumble of the Golden Dragon in Dragon Tongue interrupted the Bronze Dragon’s inner astonishment.

Regaining its composure, the Bronze Dragon bowed slightly to Saga as a sign of respect.

Within the Dragon Kind, strength is revered, not age. Dragons below the legendary status show respect to the legendary giants among them, pillars of the Dragon Kind. Even if Saga was but a Hatchling Dragon, as long as he was powerful enough, the adult Bronze Dragon would pay its respects.

“Thankfully, you came to my aid.”

“Otherwise, I would likely have perished at the hands of a Casserly prisoner. As for my current injuries, they are not serious, and I am still fit for battle.”

The voice paused, and the Bronze Dragon, unable to suppress its curiosity, posed a question.

“You are Saga Alzhus, the Golden Heart who claimed the title of Hatchling Dragon champion, right?”

Across from it, the Golden Dragon nodded slightly.

“To have stepped into the legendary realm at such a young age.”

Once the Bronze Dragon confirmed Saga’s identity as the one it had thought of, it couldn’t help but express its admiration.

“How goes the battle at Deep Sea Dragon City? Are we at an advantage or disadvantage in the war against the abyssal prisoners?”

Feeling the pervasive aura of the Casserly Abyss in the air, Saga inquired.

Hearing Saga’s words, the Bronze Dragon’s expression on its helm tightened, becoming serious.

“The abyssal prisoners from the outer planes are formidable, and though Deep Sea Dragon City has many legendary dragons, including Lord Nagaias and several ancient dragon leaders, the war situation against the abyssal prisoners is neither in absolute disadvantage nor particularly optimistic.”

Overall, the battle situation is slightly unfavorable.

This was certainly not good, but not too bad either. As long as the disadvantage wasn’t too great, the situation could be turned around bit by bit. For instance, Saga’s arrival could indeed offset some of the disadvantage.

Soon after, Saga and the Bronze Dragon chatted for a while longer.

Through the Bronze Dragon’s description, Saga learned about the current situation of Deep Sea Dragon City.

Now, due to the efforts of the abyssal prisoners, more of the Casserly Abyss’s energy has eroded the Golden Sea, and the number of abyssal rifts has increased, not just one.

Moreover, not all abyssal prisoners can pass through any given abyssal rift at will.

The size of the abyssal rift is crucial.

Small rifts allow only ordinary legendary prisoners to pass through, medium rifts permit higher-level legendary prisoners, and large rifts enable beings above legendary status to enter.

Around rifts of different sizes.

Based on the size and location of these rifts, as well as the strength levels of the escaping prisoners, the entire Golden Sea has been divided into different battle zones.

Among them, the most fierce and intense battle zone.

Is around the initial and largest abyssal rift near the bottom of the Ginia Sea.

Saga’s father is in the Ginia battle zone, as one of the leaders of Deep Sea Dragon City, tasked with confronting the strongest among the abyssal prisoners, some half-godly and extremely vicious beings. Now, the entire Ginia battle zone has become a terrifying forbidden land due to the battles between half-gods, and besides them, some legendary powerhouses are aiding the half-gods in the Ginia battle zone.

Below the Ginia half-god battle zone are various legendary battle zones of varying levels.

The main combatants in these legendary battle zones are legendary dragons.

But this Bronze Dragon is not yet legendary and is not a core combatant on the battlefield, mainly operating in the peripheral lower-level battle zones, dealing with small abyssal rifts, and only having a vague understanding of the higher-level battle zones.

After pondering for a moment, the Bronze Dragon then said to Saga:

“The Saga battle zone we’re currently in is undergoing a total assault on a small abyssal rift. The birdman you just killed escaped from there.”

“Besides many dragons of various races below legendary status, there are three leading legendary dragons in the Saga battle zone, but their strength is still lacking, and they have been unable to take down the target.”

After a pause, the Bronze Dragon continued:

“The total assault is underway. If you could lend a hand, I think we could directly eliminate an abyssal rift this time.”

“Just so happens, if you’re planning to go to Deep Sea Dragon City, you’ll pass through the abyssal rift in the Saga battle zone.”

Feeling Saga’s immense presence, the Bronze Dragon believed that with Saga’s help, the total assault on the small abyssal rift in the Saga battle zone would surely be secure.

“Oh? And after we eliminate this abyssal rift?”

“After that, we can free up our claws to rush to other battle zones under great pressure. The situation in the Saga battle zone is still manageable, but some zones are in dire straits, with many dragons suffering heavy casualties and in desperate need of support,” the Bronze Dragon earnestly said.

“Alright, I’d like to see for myself just how capable these abyssal prisoners are.”

The Golden Dragon’s gaze was calm as it spoke slowly.

Since he would be passing by anyway, Saga wasn’t in a hurry to immediately go to Deep Sea Dragon City to meet the Golden Dragonfather. It seemed a good choice to check out the situation at the small abyssal rift first.

“Excellent, I can already sense the victory of the Saga battle zone.”

The Bronze Dragon’s spirits lifted.

Then, at Saga’s request, the Bronze Dragon directed him toward the destination.

“Together we go, to fight alongside a young legendary dragon will be an honor,” the Bronze Dragon said excitedly.

However, the Golden Dragon was unsparing in its response to the flattering words:

“No, Bronze Dragon, you’re too slow, you can’t keep up with me.”

“I don’t want to slow down and wait for you.”

The Bronze Dragon’s expression froze, then it scratched its head in resignation: “You’re right, the battle is urgent, we shouldn’t delay.”

After saying this and bidding farewell to Saga, the Bronze Dragon lifted its head and declared solemnly:

“For the glory of the Dragon Kind! Deep Sea Dragon City will surely achieve ultimate victory!”

Saga nodded slightly and, with a mighty flap of its wings, skimmed low over the sea surface, speeding toward the location of the small abyssal rift.

The rapid speed created a tremendous wind pressure, causing the sea beneath its body to part to the sides, splashing up waves of golden tides.

Time passed serenely.

Soon, Saga saw many dragon figures ahead, mostly Metal Dragons, with a few Gemstone Dragons, and the strange and bizarre abyssal prisoners they were battling.

Saga had arrived at the center of the Saga battle zone.

He looked up into the distance.

In the most intense part of the battle in midair, a vertical black rift appeared like a shattered mirror or a scar in space, from which a stench reminiscent of a muddy swamp emanated continuously.

“This is a Casserly abyssal rift.”

“The swamp-like stench is probably from the Mire Prison layer of the Casserly Abyss.”

The Mire Prison layer, also known as one of the layers of the six realms of the Casserly Abyss.

Saga’s gaze shifted from the abyssal rift to the surroundings.

Among the many battling dragons and prisoners, the most conspicuous were three legendary dragons, each over thirty meters in length, a Golden Dragon, a Brass Dragon, and a Copper Dragon.

The three legendary dragons were dealing with a total of five legendary-level abyssal prisoners and were gaining the upper hand.

Crack!

Just as Saga arrived, the legendary Golden Dragon breathed out dragon flames, sweeping over a worm-like legendary creature, reducing it to ashes.

But at that moment.

The abyssal rift trembled and lit up with a black light.

The Golden Dragon, having just slain a legendary opponent, darkened its face.

“Damn it, another legendary prisoner is coming. It’s never-ending.”

Buzzing, the irritating sound of mosquitoes filled the air.

At the same time, a large swarm of pitch-black figures erupted from the abyssal rift, and upon closer inspection, these were giant mosquitoes the size of human heads, swarming and covering the sky.

Mire Mosquitoes—the most numerous planar creatures in the Mire Prison layer of the Casserly Abyss.

When creatures from the prime material plane die and their souls end up in the Mire Prison layer of the Casserly Abyss, they are likely to be transformed into Mire Mosquitoes by the planar forces.

Even though they are native creatures, due to the cage-like nature of the plane, Mire Mosquitoes instinctively yearn to escape.

Accompanied by the swarming Mire Mosquitoes, a legendary wolf demon howled and roared as it stepped out of the abyssal rift, and then the trembling rift calmed down.

One legendary slain, another appears.

And this is the biggest problem facing Deep Sea Dragon City.

The prisoners behind the abyssal rift seem almost endless. Unless the rift is closed and the prisoners are not killed quickly enough, more and more will emerge.

In this war against the invasion of creatures from the outer planes, the dragons cannot afford any slack.

They must not only be able to kill the abyssal prisoners but also do so quickly and fiercely enough to have the opportunity to seal the rifts. Otherwise, they will be dragged into an endless war of attrition until they are wiped out.

Without being discouraged by the tense situation.

The dragons could only continue to fight with all their might, using their claws and magic to battle the abyssal prisoners.

The legendary dragons regrouped and charged at the powerful abyssal prisoners once more.

The legendary Brass Dragon, adept in the art of spells, opened and closed its mouth, rapidly chanting and constructing powerful spells. The legendary Copper Dragon and the legendary Golden Dragon fought side by side, directly confronting the attacks of the numerous legendary prisoners.

At the same time.

In the midst of the intense battle, suddenly, a black and gold figure appeared from afar, entering the vision of the many dragons and abyssal prisoners.

Boom, boom, boom!

With deafening thunderous roars, the figure was surrounded by a thunder prison, with thousands of arcs of electricity dancing wildly, causing various abyssal prisoners of different races and shapes to tremble uncontrollably, even turning directly to ash.

At the same time, there were fluctuations of Dragon Might, both hot and cold, making it difficult for the covered abyssal prisoners to move.

The most numerous Mire Mosquitoes fell like raindrops.

Just a few seconds after appearing, this figure, like an unstoppable sword, directly tore through the battlefield, annihilating all abyssal prisoners in its path and rapidly approaching the center from the edge.

“Hmm? Who is this? Looks familiar.”

Noticing Saga’s arrival, the dragons were slightly taken aback, feeling that this imposing black and gold dragon was very familiar, but they couldn’t quite place it in a short time.

“Good timing!”

“Kill all these abyssal prisoners!”

Setting aside the unfamiliar familiarity, the leading legendary dragons felt Saga’s powerful aura and were invigorated.

At the same time, the black and gold dragon that had entered the battlefield was rapidly approaching the location of the abyssal rift, entering the main combat area of the legendary creatures.

The wolf demon that had just escaped from the Casserly Abyss sensed a fatal danger.

Its fur stood on end.

The wolf demon turned its head.

The black and gold dragon, whose body seemed so heavy that the surrounding air twisted and with thunder flashing in its eyes, was reflected in the wolf demon’s pupils.

Howl!

It howled, opening its maw and biting at the black and gold dragon through the air.

In an instant, a huge phantom wolf head appeared in front of Saga, its teeth sharp and fierce as it bit down.

Saga ignored the attack, opting for offense as defense, charging head-on through the solidified wolf head phantom, his indestructible body serving as his most powerful weapon, shattering it into scattered light and shadow. Then, without slowing down, he reached the wolf demon in a blink of an eye and struck out with a claw.

The dragon’s body was massive, but its movements were not the least bit sluggish, incredibly swift.

The ferocious dragon claw came down, and before the wolf demon could react, it was smashed into a mist of blood, instantly killed.

Boom!

And behind the wolf demon, the sea surface parted due to the wind pressure from Saga’s strike, forming a long trail as if it had been directly torn apart.

After instantly killing a creature on the same legendary level.

Saga exchanged glances with the astonished legendary dragons.

The black and gold dragon grinned, saying:

“Leave the rest to me; you can take a break now.”

As it spoke, the dragon’s body, shining with a black and gold luster, moved, turning on its spine with a sudden twist and sweeping out a claw through the air.

Five gravitational blades burst forth, cutting towards a grotesque demon engaged in battle with the legendary Copper Dragon, and by the time the demon sensed the danger and tried to evade, it was too late.

Rip!

The gravitational blades swept across the demon’s body.

The towering figure paused, then split into pieces.

As the demon died, the black and gold dragon’s body had already flashed behind a giant bull demon, and with a heart-wrenching dragon claw strike, it burst forth.

Splat!

The bull demon looked down to see the bloodied dragon claw holding its heart, having pierced through its chest, and its eyes showed disbelief.

Splat!

Another dragon claw pierced through the bull demon’s chest.

Then, both claws twisted in opposite directions, gripping the bull demon’s body and tearing it fiercely.

Rip!

In an instant, the bull demon’s strong and burly body was torn in two.

Amidst the rain of blood, the black and gold dragon stood quietly with its wings flapping, its bright and shiny scales repelling the demon’s splattered blood, looking new and bright.

At this moment.

The dragons and the remaining abyssal prisoners, looking at the black and gold dragon standing indifferently in the blood rain, couldn’t help but feel a tightening in their hearts.

The two remaining abyssal prisoners exchanged glances, feeling chilled to the bone, and then simultaneously fled in opposite directions.

Before the legendary dragons could intercept.

Saga stretched out his arms, aiming at the two abyssal prisoners, and then suddenly clenched his fists.

“Thinking of escaping without my permission?”

Universal Attraction!

A tremendous gravitational force erupted, like an invisible hand mercilessly pressing down, causing the fleeing figures of the prisoners to freeze in place, struggling to move a step further.

At the same time, the dragon’s claws shone with dazzling lightning.

Boom! Boom!

Electromagnetic Blast!

Two blinding columns of lightning erupted, engulfing the two abyssal prisoners and turning them to charred remains.

The Golden Dragon, the Brass Dragon, and the Copper Dragon, the three leading legendary dragons, looked at each other.

Where did this god of slaughter come from?

Thankfully, he’s on our side.

They inwardly sighed, shocked by Saga’s strength.

At the same time, Saga deactivated his Superheavy Battle Form, the black luster on his body fading away, transforming into a Golden Dragon.

The sense of familiarity suddenly intensified.

After a brief shock, many dragons widened their eyes.

“The Golden Heart, Saga Alzhus?”

“I’m not mistaken, am I? It really is the Golden Heart.”

“How many years has it been since the Hatchling Dragon competition? He’s already stepped into the legendary realm, and he’s so formidable.”

“This young dragon legend is even more prominent than Lord Nagaias.”

At the center of countless gazes, Saga, accustomed to the attention, looked towards the legendary Golden Dragon and said, “The prisoners are dealt with, close the abyssal rift.”

Through the Bronze Dragon, Saga knew that the dragons of Deep Sea Dragon City had developed a type of sealing crystal.

With the disruptive factors removed, using the sealing crystal could seal the abyssal rift.

Coming back to their senses, the legendary Golden Dragon nodded slightly, then took out a transparent crystal shaped like a tetrahedron and placed it into the abyssal rift. At the same time, strands of light emanated from the crystal, gradually filling and sealing the rift.

At this point, there were still many abyssal prisoners below the legendary level on the battlefield.

Not yet fully satisfied with the killing, Saga flapped its wings and moved again, sweeping across the battlefield like a whirlwind, with wide-ranging Dragon Might, both magnetic heat and cold, covering a large area. The multitude of prisoners within its range died in droves, and along with the actions of the other dragons, all prisoners were soon eradicated cleanly.

At the same time.

The Bronze Dragon, who had been looking forward to fighting alongside Saga, finally arrived.

Looking at the sea area where not a single living abyssal prisoner existed and the abyssal rift had already been successfully sealed, it almost thought it had run to the wrong place.

“Lord Nagaias’s two offspring, each more powerful than the last.”

“To have two young dragon legends is truly… unbelievable.”

At that moment, the legendary Golden Dragon breathed a sigh of relief, wiping away some residual blood from its helm, and turned to smile at Saga.

Hearing this, Saga raised an eyebrow.

“My dragon sister Yekaterina has also entered the legendary realm?”

“Yes, just a few months ago, Dragon Empress Yekaterina became a legend and then displayed very formidable combat power. She has become a pillar in this war, killing many legendary prisoners in just a few months,” the Brass Dragon interjected.

A year or two behind him.

But still very fast.

Hearing this news, Saga was somewhat surprised.

He had become a legend in his youth mainly due to the nourishment of divine power when the Goddess of Beauty possessed him, which was a kind of extraordinary encounter.

Even if Yekaterina had been training relentlessly in Deep Sea Dragon City, she shouldn’t have been able to step into the legendary realm just a year or two behind him.

As if sensing Saga’s confusion, the Brass Dragon explained:

“Yekaterina found a vein around the underwater mountains, containing a type of ore that radiates dangerous and lethal energy, but she was completely immune to it. After consuming a large amount of the ore, she entered a slumber, and then a few months ago, she awoke and stepped into the legendary domain.”

So that’s how it was.

Yekaterina also had her own extraordinary encounter.
