Your Dragon King bloodline is awakening.

boom!

As the Heart of Elements merged into Su Chen's body, a powerful force immediately erupted.

Along with this, a sense of superiority and arrogance also emerges.

This was the oppressive aura of an ancient dragon king, radiating supreme power. Under the pressure of this power, even the guardian-level beings of the deep sea dragon lizards could not withstand it, and they all prostrated themselves on the ground, showing the most respectful expressions.

In the void, a phantom image of a dragon gradually materialized.

Su Chen raised his head and could see that indifferent eyes meeting his gaze. Even if it wasn't intentional, the arrogance and sense of supreme privilege that filled those eyes were still very clear. This was the ancient dragon king's blessing to future generations. Only by bearing His grace could the descendant dragon lizards ascend to the supreme throne.

But Su Chen ignored this and even wanted to mentally give the other person the middle finger.

Having experienced the Human Emperor simulation, given his current state of mind, unless Teyvat explodes directly, the will of the Cricket Dragon King cannot affect him.

Roar! !

Seemingly sensing Su Chen's state of mind, the Dragon King's will unleashed a tremendous roar.

The descendants who were qualified to receive the inherited power had no reverence for the ancient Dragon King.

"You...wait, you're not..."

The Ancient Dragon King's gaze sharpened, seeing through Su Chen's disguise. This was not a descendant of the Dragon Lizard Clan, but a tiny elemental spirit!

"Come in you!"

Without giving Him any chance to act, Su Chen directly activated the Devouring Power to its maximum, forcibly pulling the last power of the Elemental Heart into his body.

Rumble~~

The rebellious force of the Ancient Dragon King's will created a violent impact within him. Fortunately, Su Chen's strength was different today, and the remaining will of the Ancient Dragon King could not fully activate the Elemental Heart, so his struggle was destined to be futile.

"I... curse you... to be forever condemned to the abyss of thunder..."

boom! ——

Endless lightning exploded from the highest altar, illuminating the entire realm of light. The dragon lizards lay prostrate on the ground, trembling, showing no intention of reacting.

You are absorbing the Heart of the Elements.

[Your Deep Sea Dragon Lizard evolution path has reached its final form—the Thunder Element Dragon King.]

[Because you failed to gain the approval of the ancient will, you could not fully inherit the power of the Ancient Dragon King, but you did not care. By integrating your own will into the template, you became the first Thunder Dragon King of this era.]

[You have successfully evolved into Thunder Dragon King - Initial Stage.]

One year, two years, three years...

The absorption of the Elemental Heart took far longer than Su Chen had anticipated, after all, the level of power it was subjected to was too high, and the obstruction of the Ancient Dragon King's will also caused him considerable trouble.

But for Su Chen, this was actually a good thing.

Because the will of the Ancient Dragon King is no longer involved, his current evolution into the Thunder Element Dragon King is equivalent to a complete rebirth, rather than an inheritance.

The former represents endless potential, while the latter will be trapped in the cage of pioneers, and only through special experiences can they break free of the shackles and move to a better position.

[After ten years, you have finally absorbed the Heart of the Elements and stepped into the level of the Thunder Dragon King. Although it is only the initial stage, the leap in power level is a qualitative breakthrough, which means that you have officially stepped into the divine realm.]

[However, the conditions for god-level evolution are much more stringent, and you know the road ahead is long. Fortunately, you are not in a hurry; as an elemental spirit, your lifespan is incredibly long.]

When you awaken, the entire Light Realm is plunged into an unprecedented crisis. An army from the Abyss Palace has crossed the rift between the two realms, causing countless deaths among the dragon lizards. The seven guardians intervene, but are nearly killed by Orobas.

"king!"

Upon seeing Su Chen awaken, the protectors all knelt before him.

"Please save your people!"

"Don't worry," Su Chen said slowly. "I will handle this."

Although he hasn't fully reached the power level of the Thunder Elemental Dragon King, his opponent is Ourobas. You know the root of this battle lies in the long-standing hatred between the two races, but it's not impossible to resolve it now.

[You left the Realm of Light and came to the Abyss Palace alone. Because you didn't deliberately conceal your presence, Aurobas quickly detected your presence.]

“My good friend, Kado, we meet again.”

High above the Abyss Palace, Su Chen transformed into a thunder dragon and coiled around. Although his size had increased hundreds of times, compared to the enormous body of Orobas, he was like a three-year-old child facing a mature adult.

"Orobas, we meet again."

Su Chen wanted to say it was a long time ago, but for him or Orobas, ten years was just a blink of an eye.

“I can sense your aura, which is of the same origin as those dragon lizards, but far stronger than them. It seems to be an even more ancient power…” Orobas did not show any hostility towards Su Chen’s thunder dragon form. In the end, he had no hatred for the dragon lizard race itself; he was just venting his anger for the people he protected.

What concerned him was the strength Su Chen displayed, which was vastly different from before, and the fact that this power was pure, ancient, and astonishing.

Su Chen said, "I have broken through the shackles of fate and obtained the inheritance from ancient times. Now I protect the Dragon Lizard Clan and promise my people eternal peace."

"I see."

Orobas did not doubt Su Chen's words, because he had witnessed Su Chen's amazing growth ability before, and in his opinion, Su Chen would one day reach the same level as him.

“In that case, let the war between the two realms cease,” Orobas said.

For God, war is not necessary, and dialogue between gods does not depend on the will of their people.

Furthermore, even if the Abyss Palace could breach the Light Realm, its environment is unsuitable for human habitation, and the dragon lizard would not submit to Orobas. Therefore, Orobas would not gain any benefit from this.

“You still ended up like this.” Su Chen sighed softly. “Orobas, my friend, I once told you that you shouldn’t have set foot here.”

Orobas said, "Because of the prophet's prophecy?"

“Yes, but since you have chosen to protect it, you cannot easily abandon your people and leave.” Su Chen pondered for a moment. “Aurobas, remember, no matter what, please do not be curious about the past of this world, and do not try to understand it. Some things here are taboo, and secrets that cannot be revealed in the heavens.”

Su Chen did not directly order Orobas to burn the "Stories of the Sun and Moon" because he had a premonition that if the book was mentioned in advance, Orobas would not be able to resist his curiosity.

"Destroy the past here, lead the people of the Abyss to the surface, and start a new life."

This is the best advice Su Chen can give.

Every era has its own rules. Even someone as powerful as Istaru cannot get too involved with the people of the Abyss Palace, and cannot even mention His name. His statue is also hidden in a secluded underground space.

"I will remember your advice, and I wish you good luck, my friend."

You don't know if your advice will affect Orobas's fate, but you feel it's unlikely. If fate could be changed so easily, there would be no such thing as inevitability.

[You return to the Realm of Light, declare the war over, and order all dragon lizards to refrain from entering the Abyss Palace to harass humanity.]

Because of your strength and status, all the dragon lizards obey your commands.

Your faith continues to grow, and your strength is enhanced.

[You began to order the Light Realm to rest and recuperate, eliminating the effects of the war. In addition, you gradually reopened the channels connecting the Light Realm to the outside world, allowing the exiled dragon lizards to return.]

[At eighty-three, the dragon lizard population has expanded further, and the power of faith has gathered once more. Dragon lizards fear light, and you searched the underground space, finding a crystal that emits a faint glow. The light from this stone will not harm the dragon lizards. You know that dragon lizards, through years of evolution, are not affected by darkness; this was done to allow them to adapt to light so that one day they can truly ascend to the surface.]

"Perhaps ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand years."

Su Chen knew that the characteristics of biological evolution change with the influence of the environment, and this process takes a long time, especially for ancient elemental life forms like deep-sea dragon lizards.

But after becoming the Thunder Dragon King, Su Chen always felt that he had to do something.

In fact, if he could truly reach the form of the ancient dragon king, he could even use his power to change the bloodline characteristics of the dragon lizard race, giving them the ability to adapt to light.

Unfortunately, even if he truly grows to the Dragon King form, the limit of evolution, he can only become an ordinary Elemental Dragon King if he cannot fuse with the Heart of God.

Over the next twenty years, you will use your experience to begin developing the Dragon Lizard civilization. Although these roughnecks don't require a living environment like humans, the evolution of a civilization depends on the race; if it stagnates, it will not become powerful.

To your surprise, the probability of encountering lizardmen within the lizard colony has increased.

[You begin researching this phenomenon and discover that deep-sea dragon lizards are a species with extremely strong evolutionary capabilities. Upon reaching adulthood, they develop distinct evolutionary characteristics; some evolve into dragon lizards with different elemental powers, and a very small number evolve into dragon lizard humans. For some unknown reason, the number of dragon lizard humans is indeed increasing, and they possess an extremely high degree of light adaptability. While they are not yet completely immune to white light, this gives you hope.]

[You used the Dragon King's power to improve the environment of the Light Realm and taught the Dragon Lizardmen using methods of human civilization. The Light Realm is rich in resources, which has made the development of civilization very smooth.]

Twenty years later, the Light Realm underwent a dramatic transformation. The Dragon Lizardmen gradually became the majority, obeying the Dragon King's commands, learning about culture, establishing civilization, and reading books borrowed from neighboring lands by the Dragon King to enrich themselves with human knowledge.

Dragon King's Palace!

This place was originally the Dragon Lizard Palace. The majestic palace stands on the mountaintop, with huge crystals emitting a soft light that illuminates the surroundings. Rows of gorgeous gemstones are inlaid, radiating brilliance and dazzling beauty.

Above the palace stands the majestic Dragon King's throne, and two rows of armored dragon-lizardmen stand upright at the entrance, weapons in hand, their expressions solemn.

There is a courtyard behind the palace.

At this moment, in the courtyard, Su Chen, in his human form, sat opposite Orobas, in his human form, drinking fine wine together.

Orobas is a bald, burly man with a fierce demeanor, vertical pupils, and skin covered with coral-colored crystals.

However, despite his ferocious appearance, he is actually a rough and kind-hearted man.

"The last time I came here, it was a desolate wasteland, barren of vegetation. Now, in just a few decades, it has completely changed." Orobas exclaimed in amazement. "Kado, how did you do it? Where did you learn all this management experience?"

Su Chen smiled and said, "Elemental spirits bear the laws of heaven and earth, so they naturally know how to do it."

"You're really good at talking, it's so fake, so fake." Orobas took a swig of wine and suddenly said with some emotion, "You are one of the three people I admire most."

"Three people?"

“Yeah, I met two people before I came to Inazuma… those two guys, tsk tsk.” Aurobas pointed to a scar on his forehead and said, “Look here, this is the scar on the forehead of Morax, the ruthless Geo Archon from Liyue. He injured me and I’m still unable to recover because of his power.”

"Oh? You've even fought Morax?" Su Chen was quite 'surprised'.

Seeing that he also knew Morax, Aurobas said with considerable pride, "Of course! Back in the day, I was a contender for supremacy in Liyue, and one of the few Daedric Lords who managed to escape from Morax!"

Morax's fearsome reputation was already widespread back then, and now that he has ascended to the position of Geo Archon, his fame has only grown. Any hidden demon god with a modicum of sense would not choose to wander around Liyue.

The fact that they managed to escape from Morax is already something to be proud of.

Su Chen gave a thumbs up and said "Awesome" repeatedly.

"What about the other one?"

“The other one, I admire even more. It’s said he’s human, not a demon god, although I’ve never seen him in person… The Human Emperor. Do you know the Human Emperor of Liyue?” Aurobas asked.

Su Chen shook his head: "Never heard of it."
