A Dragon against the Whole World

Chapter 744: Chapter 427: The Red Iron Dragon’s Domain and Traits (Part 4)

The Red Iron Dragon showed a contemplative expression, then said seriously, ”Hmm, I understand.”

”I will pay special attention to this.”

The Old Golden Dragon suddenly lifted his head, revealing a somewhat boastful smile similar to Alberto’s, and said, ”When I broke through to the Legendary level back in my day, I awakened quite a few traits, which made me perform excellently among my peers.”

After saying this, he thought of Galos in front of him, a monster dragon breaking through to the Legendary level around a hundred years old, and then he became disinterested.

At the same time, a slightly irate transmission reached the Old Golden Dragon.

”Ovis! Look at the fine offspring you’ve brought up!”

”They’re now causing a scene in the Dragon Breath Holy Hall, completely lacking the demeanor and dignity expected of the Golden Dragon Race, and they’re making a fuss insisting on a meeting with His Majesty the Silver Dragon King before they’ll stop! What sort of conduct is this?!”

Ovis was momentarily stunned, then immediately realized it must have been Alberto and Nasha adding to their roles without strictly following his previous instructions.

However, to be fair, ”make a scene” was exactly what he had originally instructed.

Judging by the situation where even the Elder had sent a transmission to question, the commotion there must be significant; those two had gone beyond his expectations.

”My apologies, my apologies, it’s my lack of discipline, I’ll go and handle it immediately.”

Ovis hurriedly responded via transmission.

He then looked back at the Red Iron Dragon soaking in the Spring of Stagnation, instructing, ”My companion, Astrid, should be returning soon from outside.”

”I’ve already informed her of the general course of events.”

”While I’m away, she’ll personally be stationed here to ensure the safety of this place.”

”Here, you can rest assured; there’s no need to worry about any form of retaliation or attack. What you need to do now is to sleep peacefully, recover, and stabilize your realm as swiftly as possible, becoming stronger and displaying greater value.”

The Old Golden Dragon hadn’t anticipated that Siano would dare to attack so boldly.

However, overall, his subsequent handling was quite prudent and comprehensive.

This put Galos at ease.

”I fear that this sleep will take some time.”

Galos said, ”My kin over in the Sel Wilderness, they might grow worried because of this... Please find a way to comfort them, inform them that I am well and just need to retreat for a while.”

The Old Golden Dragon nodded, agreeing readily.

”Rest assured, I’ll arrange for either Alberto or Nasha to personally go to your territory and deliver the message.”

After arranging everything that needed handling, Ovis no longer delayed.

His massive dragon body moved, swimming upwards, leaving the lakebed area where the Spring of Stagnation was located.

On his way to the lake’s surface, the Old Golden Dragon set up multiple layers of incredibly sturdy protective barriers.

Simultaneously, he summoned many Elemental Giant Spirits, commanding them to guard the area diligently.

The leader among them was even a Legendary Life.

After completing all this, he soared high, racing towards the Dragon Breath Holy Hall on the main island.

During the flight, he kept weighing his words, gradually formulating what to say.

Emphasizing that Siano initiated the attack, used ruthless methods, harmed fellow Metal Dragons, with an intent that was clearly relentless; emphasizing that Galos was pushed to the brink, forced to break through to Legendary in order to protect himself, and in a state of losing reason, was compelled to counterattack, ultimately defeating the formidable enemy.

Meanwhile, in the deep lakebed within the Spring of Stagnation.

The Red Iron Dragon felt extreme exhaustion in body and mind, and the gentle nourishment continuously transmitted from the surrounding spring water. His heavy eyelids gradually became unsustainable, eventually closing slowly, falling into a deep sleep.

However, this sleep was entirely different from his past slumbers.

Though his conscious mind fell into slumber, his subconscious remained somewhat awake, quietly guiding his body in the dream to start shaping the Legendary Domain and traits.

From time to time, around the slumbering Red Iron Dragon, clusters of leaping flames would spontaneously combust in the spring water, vanishing in an instant; occasionally a small piece of irregular steel would be spontaneously formed, then quietly disappear.

No combustibles, no metal materials... All these phenomena defied the secular understanding of logic.

The shaping process of the Legendary Domain was a challenge to existing world rules, a reshaping and redefining of common understanding.

Legendary Life had touched a thread of the world’s essence and could affect changes through the Domain.

As the time of slumber quietly passed.

In the dreamy depths, the Red Iron Dragon seemed to relive the countless times he had arduously honed his strength.

Countless sleepless days and nights; sweat shed like rain; the hardships of repeatedly challenging his limits.

His muscles beneath the scale armor were undergoing subtle yet continuous changes, sometimes swelling with tension, other times contracting and condensing, circulating in such a manner, engaging in some deep-seated refinement and metamorphosis.

Eventually, in a certain instant.

The Red Iron Dragon had a sensation in the depths of his consciousness, a realization emerging naturally in his mind.

He realized that he had successfully nurtured his first Legendary trait, which could also be called a template or specialty.

Legendary Trait: Giant Strength.

——Thanks to countless times refining and exploring strength, your essence of power has undergone a fundamental transformation, with a threefold increase in basic strength and an extra threefold efficiency in strength growth.

One effort yields threefold returns.

Simple yet powerful.

And this, was merely the beginning.

In the subsequent dreams, the Red Iron Dragon seemed to relive countless times stretching his wings vigorously, enduring the ripping pain from the wing roots, tirelessly soaring back and forth in the vast sky.

He bathed in winds, frost, rain, snow, and thunder, honing speed and agility time and again.

Superspeed, Agility... Again, two new Legendary traits began to gradually develop and sprout in him.

And this, appeared to still be only the beginning.

It was foreseeable that the number of Legendary traits the Red Iron Dragon could ultimately awaken would far exceed the ordinary Dragon Race.

All the hardships he had endured, every drop of sweat shed, every pain suffered, had not been forgotten by his body. At this moment, all efforts would be transformed into tangible rewards, breaking out from the cocoon and becoming a butterfly.
