Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 572 Ability God
"I'm 90% certain now that what lies ahead of us is the Second Boss from a thousand years ago,"

"Because we have long been integrated into the time of a thousand years ago, or rather, as we get closer to that mysterious space, our time gradually merges into one!"

Kuro habitually wiped away the blood and tears from his eyes, then turned his gaze away from the ancient giant's corpse, which stood tall and majestic like a colossal mountain in the distance.

Moxi and Ruby shrank back, still staring at the corpse of the ancient Titan, which looked like it was covered in mountain armor.

This ancient Titan's corpse also bears the same marks of being corrupted and manipulated by the power of otherworldly gods as the ancient dragon, making its dead body still incredibly striking.

The only difference between this ancient Titan and the Primordial Dragon is that its entire head has long since disappeared, completely replaced by twelve enormous tentacles.

The inactive slime dripped from the twelve thick, mountain-ridge-like tentacle suckers, each splash gradually polluting the surrounding spiritual space into a mixed, foul-smelling mess.

However, this corrupting and corrosive power was completely confined within a few thousand meters of the ancient Titan's corpse by another force, unable to escape, and could only disappear and fall silent there.

Moxi had already used his trump card in response to the dangerous environment, hiding his entire body inside a tall suit of armor.

This towering suit of armor has four horns on its head, and its armor plates are like dragon scales. Huge, sharp bone spikes and fangs shoot out from the outside of the arm armor, and the beast-like beast on its chest is a huge dragon skull.

This True Dragon Life Battle Armor, labeled "Controlling the Fates of All Beings, Commanding Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire" on the shelves inside the Hall of Reincarnation, is also a magical treasure produced by the Second Boss.

This battle armor, which "controls the fate of all living beings and governs earth, water, wind, and fire," contains 18,000 mysterious and powerful magic arrays at its core. Only Moxi, who specializes in magic arrays, can easily control such a powerful treasure.

Even if Moxi cannot fully utilize the armor that is said to possess the power to contend with ordinary destiny, as long as he is in a world composed of the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire, Moxi will still receive a huge boost in combat power and an advantage in escaping.

Regardless of which of the four elements—earth, water, wind, or fire—this True Dragon Destiny Battle Armor can use the element to escape, instantly covering tens of thousands of miles.

With the enemy breaking through the elemental barrier formed by the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire, there was nothing that could stop Moxi from fleeing thousands of miles away.

Even ordinary legends cannot easily break through these four barriers, so this armor can be considered the most precious treasure in Moxi's hands.

"What did you see this time, boss?"

Moxi’s deep, muffled voice came from inside the armor, which made him taller than an ordinary giant.

This guy also cherished this armor immensely, which he had obtained through ten years of hard work, almost without leaving his house and staying up all night to draw a magic circle for the Hall of Reincarnation.

Therefore, while speaking, Moxi was also performing routine maintenance and upkeep on his armor, applying grease extracted from the bodies of deep-sea whales hunted from other worlds to the scales of his armor.

Young Ruby looked at the armor with longing in his eyes, and couldn't help but spit and say, "Damn it, this battle armor is said to be the best all-around combat treasure among mid-level secret treasures, but you, Moxi, are using it like a turtle shell. What a fucking waste!"

Kuro wiped away his blood and tears before looking at Moxi, and couldn't help but laugh, "This is also a reward Moxi deserves. He spent ten years drawing the magic array for the Hall of Reincarnation."

"He might have created this armor himself. The magic array for this battle armor is hidden among the countless magic arrays he drew over the past ten years. Then, the Hall of Reincarnation assembled it themselves and gave it to Moxi as a reward."

"Given Moxi's expertise in magic arrays, it probably only took him two or three years to draw the magic array for this battle armor. The remaining six or seven years were spent working for the Hall of Reincarnation. This is a reward for selling Moxi out and letting him count the money. Hehe."

Ruby licked her lips and said with a hint of jealousy, "Anyway, he's not at a loss. Although technical talents like Moxi who specialize in magic arrays are rare, what's even rarer is the mystery of those 18,000 magic arrays with different effects but interconnected."

"However, you still haven't told me what you saw this time?"

Although Ruby is a powerful legendary being, he can also use his legendary abilities to touch the rules and touch the essence left behind behind the traces of power at a high level.

However, this was far less clear than what the high-ranking legend Kuro, who possessed powerful secret techniques, could see. You must know that the power of this magical True Sight Eye is such that even a legend would feel the pain of paying for it.

Kuro chuckled and said, "Naturally, it's the power left behind by the second boss. I've learned a lot from it."

"You must understand, for a legend to forge their own rules is as difficult as a mortal ascending to the stars,"

"But the Emperor of the Floating Light Mandate, a thousand years later, not only has a specific meaning in the 'Floating Light' prefix in his title, but even the word 'Emperor' itself carries a profound meaning,"

"It was only at this moment that I realized this."

Moxi asked anxiously, "What does it mean? Tell me quickly, don't be like those traditional sorcerers who keep it in suspense!"

Kuro chuckled and said, "The word 'emperor' is just a noun or adjective to countless people, but in the eyes of the second boss, it is a rule."

"I discovered new rules and forces on the corpse of this ancient Titan,"

"Although I cannot know for sure, the trajectory of this power tells me that this is the Emperor's Law left behind by that powerful being,"

"The combination of the laws of unification, the laws of benevolence, and the laws of hegemony has formed a power of rules that has never appeared in the universe before. Unfortunately, my abilities are insufficient. Even the current second boss is not someone I can see clearly!"

"Fortunately, many of the laws of power are still in their infancy, and I can still roughly sense one or two tenths of them."

Moxi and Ruby gasped in astonishment, exclaiming, "How is this possible? How can such a powerful being exist, treating the creation of rules as easily as a game?"

"No wonder even the gods and spirits of the heavens fear Him!"

"Hehe, everyone says the power of legends comes from wisdom, but the level of wisdom one reaches requires not only imagination, but also solid material support,"

Kuro said, "The second boss can learn and perceive from everything around him; even governing a country and creating a civilization can inspire someone like him."

"This combination of benevolent rule and hegemonic rule, along with the principle of unification, forms the basis of the emperor's laws."

"This is something that cannot be imitated or learned, unless you give the person who wants to learn and imitate it the brain of the second boss!"

Kuro laughed, "If the authority of the gods hadn't been shaken simultaneously when the Second Boss ascended to the Heavenly Mandate, the Second Boss's true power would probably still be hidden in the shadows."

"I only learned these secrets through occasional conversations with other giants in the Hall of Reincarnation. It is said that the Second Boss's true power is never revealed to outsiders; what outsiders can see is only what the Second Boss is willing to let outsiders see."

"So for a very long time, the gods only regarded the second boss as a dragon god who was about to rise!"

"Some legends take the path of legend as their end, but some beings use legend as a starting point and a stepping stone, so the universe is never short of those who have ascended to legend,"

"The legendary realm, which allows beings to rival gods in power with just a little time, is merely a platform for those who have come into contact with the rules!"

As Kuro spoke, he took a staff out of his pocket and chanted a mysterious incantation, pointing it around the ancient Titan corpse in front of him.

The intense magical light instantly activated many traces left on the ancient Titan's body.

Suddenly, towering figures appeared before the three of them. These tall figures stood like pine trees, in a well-organized formation, clad in heavy armor, and as majestic as divine generals.

Those were storm giants wielding lightning tridents and golden guards with heavy blades, forming a tight formation to slaughter all the strange creatures around the ancient Titan.

These individual Imperial Guards and Storm Giants were not particularly impressive in the eyes of the three legends, but when they joined forces, they seemed to receive some kind of powerful boost.

The legionary will emanating from these powerful warriors exuded an aura of unstoppable might, a manifestation of the supreme emperor's law that those who obeyed the will of heaven would grieve, and those who defied the king's command would die.

"Hiss, these storm giants and golden guards, could they be the Titan generals and golden generals from the Hall of Reincarnation in later generations?" Ruby's mouth dropped open in surprise as he muttered, "It's said that Emperor Floating Light Heavenly Mandate is always guarded by three thousand Titan generals and three thousand golden generals."

“Each of those Titan generals traces back to an ancient bloodline, a powerful being capable of transforming into a true Titan. Each of those golden generals is one of the most outstanding figures in a great world.”

"It would take three thousand great worlds to gather the imperial guards and divine generals to protect the Emperor of the Floating Light Destiny,"

"I also received a mission to fight against the Golden Dynasty and destroy the world under its rule. At the time, I didn't know that the Emperor of Floating Light Destiny was the Second Boss, so I was very puzzled as to why I was unharmed after being captured by those divine generals,"

"Now it seems like this wasn't just acting, it was just me being a clown!"

Kuro watched as countless storm giants and golden guards slaughtered one strange creature after another in the distance. The lightning unleashed by these storm giants together, empowered by the Emperor's Law, was enough to make even the ancient Titans stagger.

The combined psionic chains released by the Golden Guards were able to temporarily immobilize the Titan for almost an instant.

Although Kuro's Time Reversal spell, a high-level legend, could not draw upon the remaining power to reflect another powerful being.

But Kuro knew that the noble and mysterious being was probably above these legion warriors, indifferently watching the ancient Titan's roar that shattered space, in order to find the Titan's weakness.

That being is the great sovereign of the spirits, which also means that this place is His domain. Not to mention a high-level legend like Kuro, even a demigod would have to consider the other party's preferences.

The intricate magical runes became visible under the illumination of the Eye of Magical True Sight.

A mysterious power extended from the bodies and even the bloodlines of those storm giants and golden guards into the sky.

But when Kuro tried to use the power trajectory of the Golden Guards and the Storm Giants to find the powerful being he had always wanted to meet, he only glanced upwards and immediately felt his five senses go black.

boom!
The whole world is falling apart, being sucked up and swallowed by the rising black dot in the phantom.

It was a black hole in the process of forming, with an unparalleled suction force that held onto the ancient Titan's charging form.

This terrifying suction force even absorbed Kuro's time-reversal power, causing the entire reversal scene to collapse abruptly.

Moshi and Ruby were startled by Kuro's agonizing screams and actually jumped up.

"That's a real black hole, but it's also about the cycle of reincarnation in the River Styx,"

Blood flowed from Kuro's face, thick blood gushing down, completely staining the face of this high-ranking legend.

But Kuro still cried out in anguish, "The Titan's soul and a portion of the consciousness of the extraterrestrial god were directly cast into the River Styx, so the Titan's corpse is completely unharmed..."

……

Several days passed before the three of them had rested and resumed their journey.

Even when he encountered powerful, dead creatures along the way, Kuro dared not use his Magic True Sight to look around recklessly.

Having learned his lesson from the last time, Kuro lost an extremely powerful magical artifact in order to save his eyes, a loss that has always pained this high-ranking legend.

But Kuro was equally excited. This legend had once wanted to use the power of the second boss to wash away the control of the Samsara Palace mark on his body.

Although he did not achieve his goal or see his objective, he was still rewarded for his hard work.

"How can you say it's unrelated? Although I'm not a direct descendant of the second boss, I'm practically a member,"

Kuro thought to himself.

But the next second, Kuro's thoughts were jolted awake by his companion beside him.

"what is that?"

Moxi and Ruby's voices trembled, and the sound of their teeth chattering rose and fell.

Even though they were thousands of miles apart, the enormous, perfect goddess lying in the void with her eyes closed was still fully visible to the three of them.

Visible chains pierced through the body of this enormous goddess, locking every bone and muscle.

These shackles, which bound flesh and blood, were massive and tens of millions of meters long, nakedly displaying powerful auras of legendary destiny and the divine power of various other gods.

A surge of otherworldly divine aura spread through the surrounding void, enveloping the primordial mother goddess whose body stretched for millions of miles and whose spiritual presence surpassed even the entire world of Ekania.

The aura of those other gods seemed to be crawling on the body of this giant mother goddess, eroding, feeding on, splitting, and transforming it, gradually staining the body of this holy maternal deity with layers of mottled colors.

Facing the three of them was an equally powerful alien god.

Even though this alien god was thousands of miles away, it still covered the sky and the earth. Its body was like a huge light gray tree of flesh and blood, rooted on the toes of the huge primordial goddess, with its fleshy branches constantly swaying.

Countless tentacles and giant lizards grew on those fleshy branches. It was these tentacles that killed all the native creatures of the spirit world that passed by, and then the giant lizards dragged them into the gaping maw of the fleshy giant tree.

But the three of them saw that the creatures that had been swallowed by the gaping maw were reshaped and recreated by this bizarre god, and then reborn on fleshy branches. After they matured, they fell to the ground and transformed into bizarre creatures covered in slime, with tentacles eroding and taking over their brains.

But even this incredibly powerful and eerie deity manifested a beautiful female face on the giant tree of flesh and blood, its sharp, thorny tongue opening wide, uttering heavy whispers as it questioned the colossal shadow in the sky.

"You've really gone too far, Karon Gogmora! Why did you order your legions to slaughter my scattered offspring, and now you've come to attack my doorstep? Do you really think I can't kill you?"

“I did not invade your imperial territory within the Spirit Realm before!”

Kuro's eyes narrowed as he looked at the colossal shadow whose wings blotted out the sky. It was a creature he could not imagine, whose essence in the spirit world was so powerful that even Kuro's perception could not see its true face.

All he knew was that it was a powerful being that even another alien god within the spirit realm considered a formidable enemy.

"Oh?"

"The spirit world has always been my territory. You want to use Aikania, the node between the spirit world and the mortal world, to transform the entire spiritual space into your rules, thereby polluting the mortal world,"

"They're causing damage on my turf without my permission,"

Caron Gogmora bared his fangs and chuckled, "You have already defied the master's will and laws. Besides, I only wish to speak with Aynia and ask why you are preventing the birth of my bloodline."

"But you won't even grant me such a small request,"

"I had no choice but to call,"

The enormous seven-headed, ten-crowned dragon emperor slightly spread its wings and said in a deep, majestic voice, "Who told you to be the weakest among us?"

"If you don't want me to beat you up, you'd better get out of my way!"
