220: Another Dragon King is born!

Antarctica, glacier.

The area was boundless, a vast expanse of white, as fierce gales raged, sending snowflakes swirling madly, shimmering brightly under the sunlight.

At first glance, such a cold, barren place should not harbor much life, perhaps even be devoid of it.

However, there were also fierce beasts here, though relatively few in number and scattered sparsely.

Normally, these fierce beasts rarely encountered each other, all coexisting peacefully.

Tap—

Tap—

Beneath a glacier somewhere in Antarctica, a terrifying heat source suddenly erupted, melting the surrounding glaciers at an extremely rapid pace until it reached the surface.

Rumble!

Then, with a loud bang, a giant beast burst through the ice, shattering the remaining glaciers.

This beast was nearly a hundred meters tall, covered in grayish-brown skin, resembling a giant lizard. Especially when it stood upright, the hard plates on its back rose like sharp swords, quite astonishing.

After breaking through the glacier, the giant beast looked around. A hint of joy gradually appeared in its small but sharp eyes, then it muttered to itself, "After countless years of waiting, the energy of this world has finally revived!"

"Such rich energy! I love it!"

The giant beast breathed deeply until satisfied, then a glint of light burst from its eyes. "The era belonging to us ancient giant beasts has finally arrived!"

"Tremble, let me crush you!"

As its words fell, the giant beast walked out of the glacier area and eventually reached the sea.

It plunged in, swimming swiftly, even more agile than on land... Great Xia, Southern Sea.

"This time, I finally came to this sea at your request!"

At this moment, Ta Mu was leading Nami, having water-escaped from unknown depths to this location. Feeling the long-lost moisture, both beasts were deeply moved. Nami even responded with a smile, "Fortunately, our previous trip to the Northwest desert wasn't without rewards!"

Currently, Ta Mu and Nami were both fifth-tier powerhouses, indicating they had gained quite a bit.

Moreover, as they spoke, their attitudes clearly showed a discernible intimacy.

Evidently, after such a long time together, these two had developed some feelings for each other.

"Let's go, see if this sea is familiar to you."

Ta Mu called out, then continued to explore the Southern Sea with Nami, determining their location while also understanding the current situation in the sea.

Soon, they both made astonishing discoveries.

"Nami, a new Dragon King has actually appeared in this sea!"

Ta Mu surfaced, speaking in surprise, "It's said that this Dragon King controls tens of thousands of miles of sea and has even built a Dragon Palace at the bottom of the ocean!"

At this point, he couldn't help but smack his lips, "I remember the previous Dragon King only had a bump on its head, it couldn't really be considered a dragon."

"But this time's Dragon King actually has dragon claws and dragon horns. It seems this Dragon King's bloodline has evolved more thoroughly!"

"In terms of area and number of creatures, the sea has much more than the land."

Beside him, Nami was not surprised by this at all. "Perhaps the disputes in the sea are even more intense than on land."

"In such a situation, it's not surprising for a new Dragon King to be born."

She even looked down on the sea area controlled by this Dragon King. "It's just a mere tens of thousands of miles of sea. After this great change in heaven and earth, it's nothing to speak of."

"Perhaps, in other sea areas, there are even more powerful existences!"

"But no matter how strong they are, they are no match for our Great King, are they?"

For some reason, Ta Mu suddenly thought of Xia Fan and really wanted to know what his Great King was doing. "If I knew the Great King's location, I would immediately use water escape and rush over."

A hint of longing appeared in both beasts' eyes.

They wanted to find out Xia Fan's whereabouts as soon as possible, but currently, human communication had been cut off and, due to the fierce beasts erupting everywhere, it would be difficult to restore in a short time. Thus, they also found it hard to learn about the major events in the world... "Tiger Brother, Mahamayuri has sent a message!"

After leaving the Western Tibet region, Magic Cat suddenly received a message. Seeing it was from Mahamayuri, he immediately reported, "He said that a crack in heaven and earth has appeared near Mount Tai. There might be opportunities within it. He is currently guarding it, and ordinary fierce beasts dare not approach."

"But there are also powerful fierce beasts who want to enter the crack."

"Oh?"

Hearing this news, Xia Fan clearly hesitated for a moment, muttering, "Do I have to go to Mount Tai again?"

Due to the impact of the great changes in heaven and earth, most of humanity's original information transmission tools and methods had lost their effectiveness, leading to very slow message delivery. He now seemed to have no choice but to take things one step at a time.

With this in mind, Xia Fan changed direction and said, "Since there's an opportunity there, then I'll make another trip to Mount Tai!"

On the way to Mount Tai, he once again released several clones, thinking to himself, "Once my clones are spread everywhere, I will be able to build a powerful information network. If I have eyes all over the world, I will be able to control the overall situation again!"

..."Mount Tai..."

"It seems there's going to be another struggle here!"

At the edge of Dongshan District, the giant formed by the True Lord Successor seemed to have received some news. He immediately sped up, his eyes filled with determination. "Last time, Tiger Brother snatched my opportunity, but this time... I will definitely not fail!"

"Even if Tiger Brother comes, it will be the same!"

At the same time, over the East Sea, a fleet of ships, after a long journey and countless battles with ocean waves, finally arrived at Dongshan District and was preparing to land.

On the bow of the main ship, a woman stood, her gaze deep as she looked towards Dongshan District, muttering, "Sakura Island is no longer suitable for living. Only by coming to Great Xia can our bloodline continue!"

To come to Great Xia, the woman had experienced countless dangers at sea. Nearly one-third of the ships that set out had been lost.

Her originally elegant robes were now stained and torn, and her face was especially weathered.

Although she smiled when she saw the Dongshan District coast, one could see the weariness in her heart.

As the fleet landed, the woman clenched her fists, having made up her mind. "Currently, Sakura Island is powerless against the powerful fierce beasts, and the population is only the ten thousand or so people on this fleet!"

"If we die, we will truly be completely extinct from this world!"

"So I must not fail..." (End of chapter)
