Gris vibrated his wings to dodge, the wing-winds swirling with venom that splashed around, corroding deep holes into the ground where it landed.
He saw Seranos take the opportunity to close in, a giant blade condensed from darkness hacking toward the black dragon's neck.
The black head swung violently, his scales meeting the blade head-on. As sparks flew, he once again activated the Imprisonment Force Field to lock around the Demon King's body. Simultaneously, acid and venom intertwined into a waterfall, his breath like a pillar blasting directly at Seranos's heart.
Seranos's Dark Rules surged frantically; while enduring the corrosion of the acid and poison, he condensed a dark shield to block. The Dark Rules were constantly dissolved by the corrosion, yet new shadows were continuously born. Purple light and dark green exploded within the deathly black curtain, shaking the entire world until it trembled.
At that moment, Seranos suddenly broke into an evil smile.
"Black dragon, this battle is over!"
"Dark Domain!"
As soon as he spoke, with Seranos as the center, endless darkness erupted from his body. Terrifying Dark Rules rushed toward Gris, intending to swallow and pull him in.
Gris's strength was originally inferior to Seranos's. It was fine for a short time, but over a long period, Gris did not believe he could outlast an existence stronger than himself.
If he were pulled into the domain again, facing a Seranos whose combat power was significantly enhanced, Gris would face only one outcome: failure, followed by death.
However... "Did you think I was asking questions for so long for nothing?"
Gris's body also emitted Imprisonment Rules, though they did not possess power as great as Seranos's.
A Simple Domain was constructed, creating an insulation layer around Gris's body to barely resist the Dark Domain.
This kind of Simple Domain could not compare to a complete domain; it was far inferior in terms of level, intensity, and amplification.
Against a true complete domain, it was only fit to be crushed.
But... it had one effect: it could briefly resist a domain, preventing one from being immediately pulled inside.
"What?"
Seranos was momentarily surprised. Gris seized that moment of surprise to launch an instantaneous attack.
"Myriad Corrosive Dragon Acid!"
A purple-black magic circle expanded instantly, and a Forbidden Curse-level Dragon Language Magic suddenly descended.
"Feel the pain of your body being corroded, trash."
A cold light flashed in Gris's eyes.
Acid like ocean waves surged out from the Forbidden Curse-level magic circle.
The volume was so massive that a single city could not contain it.
The entire massive Demon King City was within its attack range, and the sunlight in the sky was obscured by it.
Seeing this, Seranos was not arrogant enough to raise his hand and take it head-on; instead, he vanished into the shadows.
With his departure, the demons below suffered, directly becoming the targets of this Forbidden Curse-level Dragon Language Magic.
The Dragon Vein Followers, because they hadn't gone too deep, had almost all retreated outside the city-state.
"It's over."
This thought rose in the hearts of all the demons.
But just then, a sudden change occurred.
A purple dark-element barrier rapidly expanded, enveloping the entire Demon King City in an instant.
The Dragon Language Magic struck it with a "sizzle" sound, giving off bursts of black smoke.
However, it could not advance an inch. At that moment, a helpless sigh came through.
"Alas, why must it be like this? I didn't want to interfere in the disputes of the younger generation, but you have gone too far..."
The voice was old and raspy, making one's ears feel uncomfortable.
Seranos also looked toward the very center of the Demon King City at that moment. That was the Demon King Palace, the place where the First Generation Demon King slept.
His face showed shock; he hadn't expected that this Little Black Dragon's unintentional attack would actually wake that legendary Demon King.
In the next second, an elderly demon suddenly appeared in mid-air. The wrinkles on his face were like withered tree bark, and his figure was hunched.
The moment he appeared, the demons on the scene erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
"Fantastic! It's the Lord First Generation Demon King! We're saved!"
"Lord First Generation Demon King! Kill these three big-bellied lizards!"
Hearing this, not only the three including Jona Velli, but even Veitris looked at that Diamond-tier demon, her murderous intent undisguised.
Being stared at by three giant dragons simultaneously, the demon's entire body froze. Fear made him unable to move an inch!
"Hmph, just playing tricks."
Jona Velli didn't take him seriously at all.
At that moment, the slightly cloudy eyes looked toward Gris and the two dragons not far away.
When his gaze swept over Jona Velli, a clear look of surprise appeared.
His dry, black lips parted slightly as he muttered.
"Perhaps... the opportunity to break through to Demigod lies with this beast?"
At this thought, a look of excitement appeared on his aged face.
On the other hand, when the Three Dragons heard the word 'beast,' they all clearly showed expressions of anger.
Especially Friel; she absolutely could not tolerate this old scoundrel daring to call the one she cherished a beast.
"Come, little beast, merge with me and help me achieve Demigod status. When the time comes, I can reshape a body for your soul..."
Before he could finish, a powerful spatial fluctuation came through. Almost out of battle instinct, the First Generation Demon King instantly raised a defensive barrier.
But in the next second, a scene that shattered his worldview appeared.
The defensive barrier deployed by a Ninth-rank Legendary, though not at full strength, was shattered by a single claw strike from a Red Dragon who was only at the Legendary Rank Five level!
Boom!
The First Generation Demon King turned into a purple meteor and smashed into the ground, letting out a massive explosion and kicking up a sky full of dust.
At this moment, the entire scene seemed to have been paused. Even Seranos had a look of terror.
The other demons were even more speechless, their expressions entirely those of people whose worldviews had been shattered.
Look at what they had just seen!
That powerful Great Demon who had conquered the realm for the demon race had actually had his shield shattered and been slapped into the ground by a Red Dragon of a lower realm than himself!
But before they could react, Friel's cold voice already rang out.
"Trash, remember this: she is not someone a lowly scoundrel like you can defile."
After saying that, Friel curled her dragon mouth upward, revealing a mocking smile.
Jona Velli gave Friel a thumbs-up in her heart. This gold-medal fighter—hey! She really steps up when things happen.
Just then, a terrifying aura came from afar. Everyone was stunned and looked in that direction.
They found a massive white creature flying from the horizon. Jona Velli instantly recognized who the arriving dragon was.
It was none other than the White Dragon she had met once before entering the River of Time—Gris's biological father.
The sudden arrival of this White Dragon made the situation on the scene even more complicated, even adding fuel to the fire.
Harmody saw the scene ahead from a distance, and his expression couldn't help but tighten.
"It looks like a war is going on. Hiss—"
"Is it not a good time to go over now?"
But then he shook his head. He was already in his Prime Age; it was impossible for the other side to attack him over a single disagreement.
Even if they dared to move, they would have to weigh the consequences.
