<h4>Chapter 257: Smander, Colossal Dragons Pulling Carriage</h4>
The white me released an astonishing heat, with a temperature far higher thanva. The scorching heat could be felt from a great distance.
“Though this little fellow was just born, itsbat strength isparable to a mid-level half-deity. If it was allowed to spread its faith and collect the power of faith...” Dod praised, “It can be a deity within 100 years! Though it’s a pity that there are no more excess sources of faith in the Heaven’s Vault Continent for it!”
“A monster indeed.”
Meng Lei nodded slightly, looking at the huge fireball crashing towards him, and uttered, “Absolute Zero!”
Whoosh!
A chilly golden current shot out to meet the hundred-meter huge fireball in an instant.
An amazing scene urred—once the fireball touched the golden chilly air, it instantly sealed in ice.
Krak, krak, krak...
Shortly within a few breaths, the fireball was frozen into a huge ice ball, releasing chilly air into its surroundings. Therge fireball rapidly shrunk into its original white me.
The white me darted all over the ce as it crashed onto the ice ball madly, trying to break free.
How could Meng Lei allow that to happen?
The ice ball shrunk swiftly as well to just ten meters in size in an instant, forming a frozen prison trapping the white me inside.
Bam, bam, bam!
“You baddie! Let me out!
“Baddie! You’re a viin!”
The white me kept scolding furiously as it rammed the interior of the ice ball, but it was just helpless against the ice ball.
“A youth who knows no fear.” Meng Leiughed softly and shook his head, tightening the shrunk ice ball even more. “I’ll only let you out whenever you give in.”
“Let’s go, Dod!”
Meng Lei waved for Dod and prepared to leave.
“Hey, baddie! Where are you going?”
The white me was bing anxious.
“I’m leaving here.”
Meng Lei did not look back.
“Don’t... Don’t go! It’s too cold down here!” The white me panicked. “Let me out, and I’ll not attack you, at most, okay?”
“You sure you won’t attack again?” Meng Lei turned his head and smiled.
Now little thing, that’ll teach you a lesson!
“No... No, I won’t!”
“What if you attack again?”
“Baddie! I said I wouldn’t, and I’ll definitely not, I always keep my word!” the white me replied angrily.
“Alright, that’s what you said!”
Meng Lei withdrew the icy prison with a wave of hands, but once the white me was freed, it was poised to initiate another attack—it hated Meng Lei to the core!
“Hmm? Attacking me again? How did you manage to forget what you’ve said just now?” Meng Lei raised his eyebrows, and chilling currents flowed out of his fingertips.
The white me stopped still in mid-air and hesitated for a moment before it snorted. “You baddie! I’ll keep my word, I said I wouldn’t attack you, and I mean it!”
“Now that’s more like it. I like kids who keep their words.” Meng Lei chuckled. “Oh right! What’s your name?”
“Name?” The white me was stupefied. “What’s a name?”
“Name is a designation, or what we call you. Everyone has a name, I’m Meng Lei, and that’s Dod.” Meng Lei smiled. “Don’t tell me you don’t have a name? How about I name you?”
“Sure! Okay!”
The white me was excited.
“Since your entire body is milky-white like milk...” Meng Lei said in a proper tone, “How about Wahaha[1]?”
“Wahaha? That sounds quite nice!” The white me was quite excited.
“Of course! Wahaha AD calcium milk is a treasure that can strengthen divine bodies!”
Meng Lei praised, “Back in my hometown, everyone loves to drink Wahaha because it represents power, the symbol of strength...”
“Wow! Wahaha is so awesome! Okay, I’m called Wahaha!”
The white me was full of enthusiasm. “Hahaha, I have a name now! Wahaha... Tsk, tsk, such a mighty name!”
Meng Lei almost burst intoughter as he maintained a calm expression. “Wahaha, let’s reintroduce ourselves. I’m Meng Lei, nice to meet you.”
“Er... er...”
Wahaha paused before it turned into a little snake with a fiery red body. “Nice to meet you too, I’m Wahaha!”
“What the heck? It’s a Smander!”
Upon the sight of Wahaha’s true form, Dod was shocked. “No wonder it possessed the power of a half-deity. It’s a Smander, after all!”
“Dod, what’s a Smander?” Meng Lei asked quickly.
“Smander is a kind of extremely powerful fire elemental lifeform, and fire is their nutrient!” Dod exined, “The higher the level of the fire, the mightier it bes and the faster the Smander’sbat strength increases. There are very few fire elemental lifeforms that are stronger than Smanders!”
“Smanders are actually that impressive?” Meng Lei was amazed as he could not help lighting up some Netherworld Divine Fire on his hand.
The Netherworld Divine Fire was the exclusive indestructible me to the Divine Netherworld Phoenix, which could burn anything in evesting mes. Any normal beings would stay away at the sight of it.
However, once Wahaha saw the Netherworld Divine Fire, its eyes lit up and stared as if it was a hungry wolf that saw a fat, delicious sheep.
“Wahaha, we’re friends now.” Meng Lei smiled slightly. “This is my first gift to you, my friend!”
As he spoke, Meng Lei snapped his fingers and flicked the Netherworld Divine Fire over.
“Wah!”
Wahaha opened its mouth fully and directly swallowed this bit of fire. After which, it burped out ck smoke, its eyes filled with friendliness toward Meng Lei.
“Meng Lei, you’re such a nice guy. I was wrong about you just now, so I’m sorry!” Wahaha was a little embarrassed. “And well, I don’t have any wee gift for you...”
“Haha, you’re just born into the world. It’s normal to have no gifts for me.” Meng Leiughed and waved. “I’m leaving, talk to youter.”
“Where are you going?” Wahaha gave a puzzled look.
“Home!”
After leaving the Tower of Time, Meng Lei reappeared in the imperial pce and felt a terrifying divine power spreading around and enshrouding the entire Imperial City.
“Puhaman has seeded?”
Meng Lei’s eyebrow was raised when he heard Puhaman’sughter from the side pce.
“50,000 years! Hahaha, didn’t expect that I Puhaman could have such a day! You have my gratitude, Master!”
Whoosh!
Puhaman left the side pce with a sh and went straight in front of Meng Lei to pay his respect ceremoniously. He was just short of kissing Meng Lei’s smelly shoes.
“That’ll do already! What gives?”
Meng Lei rolled his eyes. “Since you’re out, quickly get going with handling governing affairs!”
“Yes, Master!”
Puhaman did not question, as he went on with his business in the administration hall, while Meng Lei returned to his pce.
“Master!”
Upon seeing Meng Lei, Bubbles, Nadja, and Seisia bowed and greeted respectfully.
“Come! Eat with me!”
Meng Lei called the trio into the pce and chose a divine beast carcass to taste. Having eaten too much pork, it was time for a change in vor.
In a while, the boiling soup in a pot gave off a tantalizing fragrance.
“That smells great!”
“Master, what meat is this?”
“The divine beast Tai RiTian[2]! This is a superior-grade dog meat hotpot. You’re wee to eat more!”
“It’s our pleasure then!”
Time flew by as one month passed...
After a month of busy construction works, Mount Dragon God underwent earthshaking changes—the lush trees were gone, the flourishing weeds were gone, and the rugged mountain passes were gone.
What remained was a white jade mountain paved entirely with white jade crystals.
Indeed, the entire Mount Dragon God had been transformed into a jade mountain.
The surface was entirely paved with white jade crystals, forming every step on the stairs from the foot of the mountain to the top. On the mountain top stood a statue 100,000 feet tall. It was made of gold, making the appearance seem incredibly magnificent, holy, mighty—it was Meng Lei’s statue!
While in the five kilometers radius of Mount Dragon God, it was transformed into arge square.
At this very moment, the square was packed. Some were powerful figures from the Dragon God Empire, others were expertsing from the other three empires, and the rest of the continent.
This day was not just Meng Lei’s day of enthronement, but it was also the day of the great battle well known all over the continent. How could they miss it?
Other than those were nobles, followers, civilians nearby, and diplomats from each nation.
These numbers were far more than millions!
Everyone, each with different thoughts, eagerly awaited the opening ceremony.
...
Roar!
The sun rose gradually into the sky, and just as the crowd was starting to get impatient, an earth-shattering roar came from afar.
“Look over there!” someone shouted.
Everyone livened up as they shot their eyes over. They saw a huge ck figure, like a battleship or an aircraft carrier,ing toward their side in roars of thunder.
It was getting closer!
Eventually, everyone could look at the ck figure clearly, and they were shocked with their mouths wide open!
The so-called ck figure was actually 10 prodigious Colossal Dragons. That’s right, 10 Colossal Dragons!
The Golden Colossal Dragon upfront was 20,000-feet-long with gold skin throughout its body, looking absolutely magnificent.
On the other hand, the Earth Dragon, Blue Dragon, Thunder Dragon, ck Dragon, Fire Dragon, Green Dragon, Tempest Colossal Dragon, Light Colossal Dragon, and Frost Colossal Dragon were 10,000-feet-long and extraordinary as well!
,000-feet-long Colossal Dragon!
Actual half-deities Colossal Dragons!
The appearance of so many half-deities was absolutely sensational, but what was even more shocking was...
The ten half-deity Colossal Dragons’ necks were each tied up in huge chains connected to arge floating dragon carriage!
Judging from the scene, it was clear to the crowd that these half-deity Colossal Dragons were pulling the floating dragon carriage!
“Where did all these half-deity Colossal Dragonse from? Weren’t the half-deities of Dragon Ind wiped out by His Majesty Meng Lei?” A Saint Domain expert felt uneasy.
“This... Who knows?” Others at the side shook their heads.
“How dare he use half-deity Colossal Dragons to pull a carriage? That is too much!”
Among the crowd, an elderly man in a ck cape ground his teeth.
He was the only surviving half-deity dragon that had escaped from Meng Lei’s destruction of the Dragon Ind—the Tempest Colossal Dragon.
The reason he had shown up here was that he wanted to witness how Meng Lei would meet his demise in front of him!
The tragic thing was he had not yet seen Meng Lei’s death, yet he saw this disgraceful scene.
The Tempest Colossal Dragon’s hatred was like an endless gushing river, like an overflowing river beyond control!
“And these bastards, they would really rather bring humiliation to the Dragons andmit such disgraceful acts! Our prestige was thrown away by these rascals!”
Others might not recognize these dragons, but the Tempest Colossal Dragon did—these were those Saint Domain Colossal Dragons from the Dragon Ind!
The only question the Tempest Colossal Dragon had was how had these sinful creatures managed to break through to be half-deities!?
