As soon as Xia Fan called out Syd Loray's name, time magically froze again. The wind stopped blowing, the earth stopped shaking, and the black fog released by the demon dragon stopped spreading. The entire world suddenly quieted down.
Xia Fan heard Syd Loray's maniacal laughter. It was as if he was the legendary monkey that had been trapped under the Five Fingers Mountain and had suddenly regained his freedom. He was overjoyed.
"Finally … after sleeping for so long, I can finally return to the Three Realms!" Syd Loray shouted, his voice trembling. "Leave it to me. You won't be disappointed!"
Xia Fan was stunned. He felt as if he had released the devil hidden in a bottle. The next moment, the devil would explode and conquer the world.
* Boom! *
Suddenly, Xia Fan felt something enter his body. His blood sped up and his body heated up as if he was being burned.
At the same time, his power was increasing rapidly. It was a powerful mental power. His brain was full of energy, and his eyes were shining brightly. As his mental power grew stronger, Xia Fan felt as if he could see the soul of the second son of the flame spirit. That ugly monster's mental world was as hideous as his appearance, full of bloodlust and desire to kill. Xia Fan could clearly feel that the second son of the flame spirit only existed to destroy life. It had a deep hatred for the world.
Countless animals rushed out from all directions. Be it the weak mice or the divine beasts of the three heroes of Hidden Demon City, they all rushed toward the second son of the flame spirit with bloodshot eyes.
Life began to burn. A gray rabbit with big ears, covered in crimson flames, rushed toward the demon dragon and used its teeth to bite off a piece of dragon scale. Then, it used its claws to tear it apart, trying to turn into a blood leech and burrow into the body of the second son of the flame spirit.
Soon, the gray rabbit's body exploded. Its blood and internal organs exploded, turning into some kind of strong acid that splashed on the body of the demon dragon. Its skin burned and white smoke rose.
A spotted python crawled up the back of the second son of the flame spirit and burrowed into the demon dragon through a wound. It also burned its own body.
Crazy!
In just an instant, all the animals in the world went crazy. They exchanged lives for lives, exchanged souls for souls, and launched a violent attack on the Demonic Dragon.
Xia Fan had learned some beast-taming techniques, but he had never seen a sparrow turn into a blood maggot. Its two small eyes were as red as blood. It clearly had no combat power, but it burned its life force to kill its opponent.
One had to know that their opponent was a demonized Black Dragon. It stood at the pinnacle of the beast race, yet it had transcended the beast race and reached a level close to that of a god. How could those rabbits and sparrows dare to attack such a terrifying being?
There could only be one reason for this. They were being driven by a creature stronger than the Mystic Dragon!
The one who made the beasts burn their lives to attack the dragon seemed to be Xia Fan.
When Syd Loray possessed Xia Fan, Xia Fan seemed to have obtained a status that transcended everything. All the beasts in the world were under his control. He could control their souls. All he needed to do was to whistle, and those beasts would be willing to die for him.
It was a scene that could collapse the three realms. Even the Griffins, the mythical beasts, could not escape the guidance of fate. The Griffins roared and burned. Their beautiful feathers and eye-catching bodies turned into ashes in an instant. Without any hesitation, they carried out the call of the Grim Reaper loyally.
As for the second son of the Flame Spirit, he was clearly not under Xia Fan's control. However, his soul was also under some kind of pressure that was even higher than his own. He writhed in agony, as if millions of maggots had entered his body and were biting every inch of his flesh and organs.
The situation was far beyond Xia Fan's expectations. He thought that Syd Loray would give him some kind of combat power, like Superman, and suddenly become stronger. He could then single-handedly attack the Mystic Dragon and strangle it to death.
But the truth was that Xia Fan did not do anything. He sent a signal through his seventh brain region, and then all the animals in the world pounced on the second son of the Infernal Spirit in a frenzy, exchanging lives for lives. If one animal's life was not enough, then a hundred would be enough! A thousand! Ten thousand!
If the lives of ordinary beasts were not enough, then he would add the lives of the three mythical beasts!
"Jin Bao!"
Dongfang He screamed. He saw the Griffins that had accompanied him since he was a child turn into dust in the air and become ghosts of hell. The future heir of the dragon-slaying family was in so much pain that tears rolled down his cheeks. He felt like his heart was about to break.
"Life is mysterious and has unimaginable power. What I've triggered now is the highest level attack in the world, Death of the Soul. I'll use the lives and souls of the little ones to exchange for the soul of the second son of the flame spirit. After this battle, the second son of the flame spirit will no longer exist in this world. He will be erased from the Three Realms forever, unable to be reborn because I've directly destroyed his soul," Syd Loray said in Xia Fan's mind.
Seeing that Xia Fan was extremely shocked and did not respond, Syd Loray said, "This ability is called Beast King's Era. You've only recently awakened it, but I've strengthened it further. If I hadn't possessed you, you would still be able to use Beast King's Era, but it wouldn't be as strong as it is now. You can still control ordinary beasts."
* Gulp *
Xia Fan swallowed. "Why? Why can you command beasts to attack the dragons? Aren't dragons the super creatures that stand at the top of the pyramid? "
Syd Loray chuckled. "That's right. Dragons are indeed the creatures that stand at the top of the pyramid, but I'm standing at a higher position than the second son of the flame spirit. So my power combined with yours will surpass the second son of the flame spirit. To be honest, even his father is below me."
The flame spirit was Stanley's mount. How could Syd Loray be standing at a higher position than the second son of the flame spirit?
Xia Fan was suspicious. He felt that something was wrong. Why was Syd Loray's position higher than that of a demon dragon? Humans and dragons were not the same species. Take Xia Fan and Mingzhu for example. Who was higher between the two of them? Of course not, because one was a human and the other was a dragon. They belonged to two completely different biological systems.
"Could it be … you're …"
"No need to guess. I'm also a demon dragon. I look like the second son of the flame spirit. In human terms, I'm pretty ugly."
Xia Fan was stunned. "If you're the same race as the second son of the flame spirit, why did you kill him?"
"It's simple. Although we're of the same race, we're on different sides. You're a human. Haven't you killed a lot of humans?" Syd Loray countered.
Xia Fan was speechless. Being of the same race really wasn't an excuse. He was a human, and his specialty was killing. If everyone of the same race loved each other, the world would have been peaceful long ago. There would have been no war.
"I've been possessed by a demon dragon? What's going on?! "
Xia Fan felt the gravity of the situation. A dragon had managed to enter his brain, and a demon dragon at that, a demon that wielded the power of darkness! It was very strange!
"That's why I said you're a special case in Heaven's Wings. You're different from your family. It was my good fortune to have met you," Syd Loray said happily.
"With the death of the second son of the flame spirit, the domain will soon collapse. You and your friend will be able to escape this calamity, but you must be careful. The old guys in Hidden Demon City will definitely investigate this unusual phenomenon. You'd better not let them find out that you've been possessed by a demon dragon."
"What if they find out?" Xia Fan asked.
