Chapter 822: Thunder and Fire
"Insolent—!"
Gorazdra roared, her eyes flaring with chaotic thunderstorms, swirling clouds of fury. With a deafening crackle that shook the heavens, bolts of lightning—each capable of reducing a mortal to ash—lashed toward the advancing Red Dragon Emperor.
"Damned traitor! You seek death!"
The voice of the Ancient Blue Dragon echoed like a thousand thunderclaps, sending tremors through the soul.
Kai Xiusu did not flee. He hovered in midair, slowly unfurling his Dragon Wing. From behind him, a torrent of molten Dragon Flame erupted, surging forth to meet the storm of lightning.
In an instant, lightning danced, fire roared, and streams of flame wove through electric arcs in the sky—colliding, entwining, unleashing a colossal energy wave that surged outward. The hills below were flattened in an instant, reduced to smoldering craters. Yet neither dragon bore so much as a scratch.
This was but a single probing clash between two titans—one that already carried the terrifying weight of a cataclysmic descent.
Seizing the moment, Kai Xiusu studied the Ancient Blue Dragon—the one feared across the multiverse as the "Thunder Tyrant."
[Thunder Tyrant – Gorazdra]
Challenge Rating: 38
Her body stretched over sixty meters in length, her form lean and powerful, though still smaller than Kai Xiusu’s unnaturally augmented frame. Yet even so, she dwarfed the limits of any ordinary dragon, a testament to her noble Ancestral Dragon bloodline.
But her true might lay in her Elemental Manipulation. Gorazdra commanded thunderstorm clouds spanning over a hundred kilometers, bending electromagnetic fields at will, and unleashing thunderbolts capable of annihilating all in their path.
Even Kai Xiusu—possessing both True Dragon Mage and Elemental Master mastery—could not match her raw control.
And beyond that, she bore the Immortal Divine Body bestowed by Tiamat. Her horns, grotesquely massive, crackled with frenzied lightning, while her spines pulsed with a supernova-like glow, radiating an unfathomable surge of divine power. This reservoir of energy was endless, unyielding.
By sheer strength on paper, Gorazdra far surpassed Erebus. No wonder the Green Dragon Sect had been confined to the northwestern reaches of Seleucus, unable to expand.
Yet Kai Xiusu sensed her flaw.
Perhaps from Tiamat’s repeated indoctrination, she remained under relentless mental control—her mind fractured, her thoughts warped by oppression. She seemed… unhinged. Manic.
A fierce grin split Kai Xiusu’s face.
"Who do you think I am? A human? A dwarf? An elf?
With attacks this weak, you expect me to die? How delightfully foolish of you."
Gorazdra’s gaze burned with murderous intent, laced with a chilling seriousness.
For years, Kai Xiusu’s title—“Dragon Prince”—had circulated across the multiverse. She had dismissed it as mortal myth, a lie spun by the weak. After all, among the countless foreign species of Dragonkind, only a handful had ever breached the Material Realm and touched the Divine.
But now, seeing the Red Dragon with her own eyes, she realized the truth: this was no ordinary red dragon.
Eighty meters long, his body massive and powerful, radiating an aura beyond the Material Realm—perfect, divine. A faint shimmer of divinity and immortality pulsed from him with every breath.
Her experience points, her instincts—her very soul—screamed: this was no mere dragon. He was a fusion of Ancestral Dragon blood, Dragon Divinity, and a vast, tangled web of divine power.
No wonder he had crushed Erebus.
Even Gorazdra—so confident, so powerful—had to acknowledge the threat before her.
The Ancient Blue Dragon opened her maw, a gaping chasm brimming with blinding lightning. Her voice boomed like distant thunder.
"Kai Xiusu. Your end was sealed the moment you betrayed Queen Tiamat, betrayed the Five-Colored Dragon Race. You will become her Sacrificial Offering."
Kai Xiusu shook his massive head, feigning sorrow. "My fate has always been in my own hands. No one else can decide it.
But you… from the moment you abandoned your individual consciousness and pledged yourself to Tiamat, your fate was already written. You are nothing but a puppet. A vessel for her descent into the mortal realm."
"Silence!"
Gorazdra’s face twisted in rage. Veins bulged across her skull as lightning crackled around her, surging violently.
Unaware why, the Ancient Blue Dragon—on the verge of ascending to the Divine Realm—felt a deep, inner string within her mind tremble, as if severed. All she could feel was fury, rage, fire.
Kai Xiusu smirked coldly. "So you believe the multiverse’s most stingy deity—Tiamat—would freely gift her Immortal Divine Body to followers? That she’d sacrifice her own divinity to elevate a mere mortal into a True God?
How generous of her.
Honestly, Gorazdra, isn’t that just a laughable fairy tale?"
"Shut up!"
The Ancient Blue Dragon’s eyes flared with electric fury. Lightning erupted from her every pore. Thunderclouds poured from her massive form like a storm given life.
From the void, a rasping, venomous voice echoed:
"Kill him. Eliminate this desecrator. He is the greatest obstacle to your ascension!"
At the sound, Gorazdra’s rage cooled. Her gaze hardened—focused, merciless.
"Yes. His Majesty. To become a true Deity, I must kill this traitor of the Five-Colored Dragon Race."
Her vertical pupils narrowed into slits, streaks of lightning flaring within. With a roar that split the sky, she launched herself forward, thunderbolts blazing, streaking across kilometers toward the Red Dragon Emperor.
The sky split in two. Lightning stretched for miles—a torrential flood, a waterfall of pure electricity.
Kai Xiusu stared unflinching at the oncoming storm, his face alight with battle-lust.
"This… is true battle."
"ROAR!"
"Come then! Let me witness the strength Tiamat has granted her loyal hound!"
With a roar that shook the very fabric of reality, Kai Xiusu flared his Dragon Wing. Muscles tensed, his entire body engulfed in a torrent of fire. He transformed into a blazing red star, radiating endless flame, hurtling straight into the Ancient Blue Dragon.
Behind him, the Dragon Flame stretched like a crimson ocean across the sky, churning clouds that darkened half the heavens.
The world itself seemed torn asunder—one half a purgatory of fire, the other a thunderstorm abyss. Either realm alone could drive a mortal to eternal despair.
"BOOM!"
The collision was cataclysmic. Lightning and fire clashed in a storm of divine power. The shockwave tore through the earth, sending dust clouds spiraling into the sky. Electric arcs danced through the air. Swords and blades on the battlefield sparked violently, their edges flashing with lightning.
Thousands of mortals were swallowed by the aftermath—consumed, erased.
When the dust settled, hills were gone. The ground was scarred with blackened cracks, rivers of molten lava flowing like liquid glass. Shattered sand crystals gleamed under the sun.
High above, two divine titans wrestled—each clash sending ripples through space itself.
"Die!"
Gorazdra seized her chance. She flapped her wings, soaring upward, then swung her massive, lightning-wreathed tail with a whip-like force.
The air screamed. Lightning roared. The tail tore through the storm, lashing toward Kai Xiusu’s head. At its tip—faint but unmistakable—was the taint of Destructive Divine Power.
Kai Xiusu twisted, retreating a dozen meters, narrowly avoiding the strike. He swung his claw in return, slamming it into the side of Gorazdra’s neck.
"THUD!"
Scales shattered. Blood sprayed. The dragon shrieked, her neck mangled, bones fractured.
But as electric current surged through her wounds, the damage vanished—visible in an instant. Within a single breath, she was whole again. Blood and scales reassembled, flowing back into her body as if time itself reversed.
This was the nature of a Quasi-God—an Undying Entity. Physical harm meant nothing. The essence of immortality remained untouched.
Gorazdra roared, "Kai Xiusu! Is that all you’ve got? So this is what they call a Hybrid Dragon? Pathetic!"
In an instant, she vanished—reappearing as a phantom within the thunderstorm, lunging from behind.
But Kai Xiusu matched her speed. He twisted his body with impossible grace, nearly distorting space, and unleashed a breath of Sun God Power from his throat—engulfing Gorazdra in searing flames.
"BOOM—"
Yet within the inferno, Gorazdra armored herself in lightning, resisting the onslaught. She surged forward again.
But physically, she was no match for Kai Xiusu. In the entire Material Plane, few could rival him.
With a thunderous impact, Kai Xiusu struck her full force, sending her flying backward.
"Fool," he said coldly. "You serve Tiamat willingly—like a dog, selling your soul and even counting the coins for your master."
"Damned traitor! You, crawling worm, dare speak of Queen Tiamat?!"
Gorazdra lost all reason, her fury reaching a boiling point. From her throat, she spat glowing orbs of lightning, one after another, streaking toward the Red Dragon Emperor.
Kai Xiusu danced between them, weaving with effortless precision, dodging with ease. Then, turning to face her, he continued:
"Stop lying to yourself, Gorazdra. As a Primordial Dragon, you know better than anyone—what kind of existence He truly is."
"SHUT UP!"
She soared upward again, diving down—but Kai Xiusu caught her with a single palm, slamming her into a distant cliff. The mountain shattered. Earth trembled violently.
Kai Xiusu loomed over her, towering, overwhelming. He activated his Charmer, pressing the attack with words like blades:
"Think, you pitiful Blue Dragon. Even the mightiest Deity cannot breach the Dimensional Barrier. How could Tiamat possibly do it?
Face the real world. Her so-called descent, her Dragon Empire—it’s all a fraud.
Her true goal? To cultivate you—three Quasi-God-level Primordial Dragons—into a single, fused Avatar, a Color Dragon capable of true godhood.
She will use you as a vessel, to channel her will, and descend to Earth once more—under a new status."
"Impossible!"
Gorazdra screamed, her eyes bulging, veins bursting from her forehead. She looked like a beast choking to death.
Her gaze flickered—doubt, fear, panic—before hardening into endless rage.
"IT’S YOU! YOU, the arrogant, despicable traitor, are the one deceiving me! You’re trying to lure me into betraying the Dragon Queen!"
Her eyes wide, her maw gaping, she lunged forward, claws crackling with electricity—like a rabid beast.
Kai Xiusu sidestepped with a flick of his wing, dodging her charge. He shook his head, sighing.
"Tragic. You thought you could become a god—yet your will is already in someone else’s hands."
"Queen Tiamat promised—kill you, and I become the next Dragon God!"
Her eyes burned with madness. No hesitation. She spread her wings, and a storm of lightning surged forth—forming silver-white wings hundreds of meters long.
One simple flap sent a dozen dragon vortices tearing across the ground, kicking up storm after storm of sand. Thousands of lightning bolts rained down on the Red Dragon Emperor—impressive, terrifying.
"Ha. The old hag still loves empty promises."
Kai Xiusu stood unmoved, his expression calm, almost amused. A faint smirk curled his lips.
"Still…"
At that moment, the Dragon Crystal embedded in his chest flared with blinding flame. The gaps between his scales rippled with delicate waves.
A wave of incandescent fire erupted skyward—so fierce, so hot, it burned the heavens.
In an instant, the entire thousand-meter radius—lightning, sandstorms, hills—was reduced to ash.
Only charred remains remained.
"Even a dog wouldn’t be worth killing.
How dare you, you insignificant thing, think you can slay me?"
From within the sea of flames, a thunderous roar echoed—a voice so deep, so dignified, it stirred the soul and forced even the bravest to bow in submission.
Then, a colossal form rose from the inferno.
His narrow, golden eyes—like twin suns in the sky—blazed with light.
In that radiant fire, even the countless bolts of lightning paled, dimmed, extinguished.
