In the Rift World, amidst the dozens of kilometers of magma lakes formed after the peaks melted, a black-red giant beast measuring a thousand meters in length lay silently asleep.
Around the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, the magma was pushed away by an invisible force, creating a vacuum area several kilometers in diameter and a thousand meters deep.
Within this range, strands of black, gold, blue-black, and purple light flowed, representing eight higher-level laws such as destruction, diamond, chaotic dark power, and corrosion.
At this moment, under the intersection of the eight higher-level laws, the area resembled a massive galaxy slowly rotating, covering a range of more than ten kilometers like a complete "world."
The Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon resembled a primordial behemoth born at the beginning of the universe, resonating with the heavens and earth with each breath, swallowing and exhaling the source of laws from the depths of the void to refine itself.
This transformation was not merely about law body refinement; it was also a metamorphosis into a higher-level Heavenly Rank life form, causing its body to undergo changes.
For instance, atop the fierce head of the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, clusters of black-red mane several dozen meters long sprouted between the sharp angles and the scales on its neck, making it appear even more imposing and domineering.
The aura emanating from the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon was even more terrifying and grand, filling the heavens and earth, causing the surrounding space to continuously shatter, cracking dense black fissures, creating a chilling sight.
More than ten kilometers away, the Horned Tiger Kun opened its mouth resembling a black hole, its eyes showing surprise: "Ying Ying Ying!! Thunder Flame's transformation feels so strong."
"Roar! Strong... transformation." The Behemoth Candle Dragon, which had been in a disconnected state, also regained its senses, revealing shock in its eyes.
Over two months ago, when it first met the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, the latter was only slightly stronger than it and was at the early level nine.
But over two months had passed, and now the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon had broken through to the mid-mythical level, its combat power becoming increasingly terrifying with each strengthening, while it remained at the quasi-mythical level.
Had it not been for following the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon and consuming top-tier divine fruits, it didn't know when it would touch the laws of time and step into the quasi-mythical level.
Watching the black-red giant beast surrounded by galaxies, its aura growing more and more terrifying, the Behemoth Candle Dragon inexplicably felt a sense of crisis and couldn't help but let out a low growl.
"Roar! Big Horn, we should also sleep. Get stronger."
This time, they had consumed a lot of ordinary divine-level resources, and sleeping (cultivating) would significantly increase their strength.
Moreover, after facing off against that Qiongqi behemoth alone, both giant beasts had realized the gap between themselves and mythical behemoths.
Including the Behemoth Candle Dragon, although under the influence of two top talents and the laws of time, its combat power was already comparable to that of ordinary mythical behemoths, it fundamentally still belonged to the extraordinary.
The Horned Tiger Kun flapped its two fins and nodded vigorously: "Ying Ying Ying!! Let's work hard to sleep, and when Thunder Flame wakes up, we will take down that behemoth."
In fact, the Horned Tiger Kun held no animosity towards the behemoth; life among exotic beasts was inherently a survival of the fittest. If they couldn't win, they could only blame themselves for not being strong enough.
However, once Thunder Flame woke up, they would definitely go for it, after all, there were over a hundred top-tier divine fruits at stake.
The two giant beasts looked around and then found a peak over ten kilometers away from the Silver Giant Dragon to lie down, closing their eyes and falling into a deep sleep.
