Chapter 399 - 319: Dominic Blue Dragon Family, Reunion of Mother and Son
The severe cold of the Border Area could not surpass the natural barrier to sweep over the land of the Sel Wilderness.
Due to recent climate changes and the invisible impact of the aftermath from an earth-shattering battle between two Legendary Kings, the overall temperature of the vast wilderness, although slightly decreased from its perpetual heat, still did not allow even a glimpse of snowflakes to be seen.
Only in the sparsely populated regions at the northernmost point, closest to the edge of the Border Area, can one occasionally see some thin snowflakes drifting in the wind.
Whoosh——!
The Red Iron Dragon flapped its wings, soaring freely and swiftly through the high skies of the Sel Wilderness, the strong airflow easily torn apart by him, leaving long trails of vortices behind.
And as its wings moved, time quietly slipped by.
In the view of Galos below, the terrain continuously changed like a flowing scroll.
He gradually flew over the lush and vibrant primal forests, soared past the gigantic, jade-clear lakes, and looked down upon the endless expanse of rugged fields brimming with drought-resistant shrubs and grasses.
Finally.
His enormous body began to decelerate gently, descending like a steady black cloud onto the jagged peak of a steep cliff.
His sharp Dragon Claw gently tapped into the hard rock, securely gripping the mountain’s body.
As he folded his broad wings and lowered his Dragon head, he looked down.
A vast and deep land, as if once struck by a meteor from the heavens, appeared dramatically in his eyes.
It was his birthplace, the Celestial Pit Territory ruled by the Iron Dragon Lady Letitia, a unique and expansive basin.
Galos’s gaze slowly moved.
He could vaguely see, beneath the steep opposite cliff, a piece of particularly rugged land, with deep cracks and large claw marks still visible on the mountain wall beside it.
Despite decades of erosion by wind and rain and changes by nature, leaving many unfamiliar marks.
Yet he could still clearly recognize it, the masterpiece he left behind during his childhood, training daily on this site.
A mixed feeling of unfamiliarity and deep familiarity involuntarily surfaced from his heart.
"Good, the Iron Dragon Lady’s aura is still very strong, which means she’s clearly still living in this territory and hasn’t left."
Galos slightly raised his prominent Dragon head, no longer suppressing his Power, as a mighty Long Wei spread across the territory like an invisible tide.
In the agreed-upon social rules of the Dragons.
Invading another’s Domain without the Lord’s explicit permission is undoubtedly extremely rude, even strongly provocative and offensive, implying an intent of war.
Though Galos was born here, this place remains under the Iron Dragon Lady Letitia’s territory, not his direct dominion.
Releasing his unique Dragon’s aura first, so the other party clearly perceives his existence and location, rather than rudely barging deep into the Dragon’s Nest, is a way of expressing basic goodwill, indicating the visit bears no hostility.
As Galos’s unabashed Long Wei swept by like a storm.
In an instant, countless creatures living within this Celestial Pit Territory, regardless of their strength, felt an invisible, heavy pressure emanating from their life instincts, becoming restless or as silent as cicadas in winter.
The first to react to this unexpected guest were a group of startled Scorpion-tailed Lions.
A group of fierce-looking Scorpion-tailed Lions, oozing with an intense Evil aura, flapped their dragon-like large wings, rapidly ascending from the cave within the steep cliff below like dark clouds.
Their features were distinct.
They had human-like heads adorned with a messy mane.
Bodies were robust and agile like a lion.
Their backs grew a pair of gigantic, durable dragon-like wings.
Most distinctively, they had flexible scorpion tails covered in a hard, horny armor, ending with a cluster of venomous spikes.
Scorpion-tailed Lions were not a highly intelligent species, their intelligence comparable to the Earth Bear.
They could communicate with basic language, had an evil bloodline, and enjoyed serving powerful Lords who treated them well, could intimidate them, and allowed them to satisfy their lust for killing during hunts periodically.
Evil Dragons from the Lawful Faction, brutal Earth Goblin Warlords, and cold Giants... were their common employers.
The Scorpion-tailed Lions found in the core territory of the Iron Dragon Lady naturally belonged to Letitia’s Followers and Guard.
The leading Scorpion-tailed Lion was particularly gigantic, nearly the size of an ordinary young Giant Dragon.
Most strikingly.
On its scar-covered forehead grew a pair of short and sharp black Dragon horns, and amidst the dense mane, one could vaguely see black Dragon Scales embedded under the skin, gleaming with a dim metallic luster, exuding a light yet unmistakable Iron Dragon aura.
This was a Dragon Vein Scorpion-tailed Lion, enhanced through a Dragon Vein Transformation ritual.
Scorpion-tailed Lions innately craved battle and slaughter.
Initially detecting the aura of a strong invader, they rushed swiftly by flapping their wings, with menacing growls rolling in their throats, their ferocious fangs fully exposed.
However.
When they truly saw the majestic silhouette of the Giant Dragon hovering over the cliff top.
All roaring, all fierce aura seemed to be suddenly seized by an invisible hand, vanishing into thin air after a brief pause.
