Chapter 160: The Corpse Suit Dragon’s Participation.

Sigh, I knew it—I’m into dragons.

Staring at the relatively intact corpse on the ground, the newly born Extinction Dragon let out a soft sigh, candidly admitting her terrible preferences.

In the heat of battle, rage takes over, unleashing primal instincts without restraint.

But once the fight ends and calm returns, the complex human side of this alien soul dominates, making her less about destruction when faced with what she likes.

It’s like having two split personalities, but this is who she is—just face it!

Even ordinary people struggle to control themselves in anger, let alone Jié Jié, who’s been tainted by wild instincts after gaining immense power.

Understanding oneself deeply often brings internal contradictions—a normal part of self-discovery.

The feeding process for the Extinction Dragon has now become purely about collecting materials.

Why is it still “he” even though he became an Extinction Dragon?

Previously, due to subjective perception, the asexual being was referred to as “she.” Now that he’s taken this form—

Asexual! Asexual!

This means he can subjectively refer to himself as “he,” since “he” includes “she” when gender isn’t determined, right?

The newly born Extinction Dragon, referring to himself as “he,” began searching through the body of the other Extinction Dragon, whom he subjectively thought of as “she.”

Where could the dragon gem be? Where could it be?

After futile searching, Jié Jié looked at the massive horns of the Extinction Dragon.

By now, the entire body of the Extinction Dragon had been gnawed all over, leaving it battered and bruised.

Still unsatisfied, Jié Jié wanted more from the Extinction Dragon, driven by the “love” in his gaze.

Once again extending his monstrous claws, he twisted and smashed at the giant horns, finally breaking one off with a terrifying sound, revealing a dull crystalline fragment at its base.

This gemstone was very dim.

The Extinction Dragon’s gem was retrieved, hesitated briefly, then swallowed after taking a deep breath.

What defines the traits of an Extinction Dragon?

It’s their powerful vitality that grows stronger in battle, their ability to rise from desperate situations and unleash devastating revenge without regard for themselves, and their intense desire to tear apart prey for nourishment during fights.

This power now lay dormant within Jié Jié, waiting for him to encounter strong foes.

After swallowing the gem, Jié Jié closed his eyes and waited. Moments later, he opened them again, gazing deeply at the “corpse” of the Extinction Dragon.

In the form of an Extinction Dragon, abilities from the Steel Dragon and Corpse Suit Dragon gems were somewhat suppressed, especially after consuming the gem.

This allowed him to perceive even the finest details—his cells and those of the Extinction Dragon were devouring various microorganisms inside him.

Having obtained the form and power of the Extinction Dragon, Jié Jié took one last deep look at the still feigning-dead Extinction Dragon before disappearing into the shadows, unseen by the Corpse Suit Dragon.

A gigantic spider watched from the ceiling as the Corpse Suit Dragon reappeared and started carrying away the “corpse” of the Extinction Dragon.

Little Miss Accountant seemed happy despite the fact that transporting such a corpse would take many days.

She died happily within hours.

Finally, the Extinction Dragon revived from its fake death, its stiff body gradually regaining movement as strength returned to its muscles. It pounced on the Corpse Suit Dragon, pinning it down with its arms and biting into it.

Fortunately, most of the Corpse Suit Dragon’s body was covered in dry, hard rotting flesh, which the Extinction Dragon mistook for its actual meat. After chewing twice, it spat it out.

There was no nutrition—it was too dry and hard to satisfy her hunger.

The Corpse Suit Dragon, this Ancient Dragon’s Shame, is always spat out by the Extinction Dragon after just a few bites.

Looking around, flapping its wings, the Extinction Dragon flew upward toward the upper levels of the Valley of Miasma, leaving poor Little Miss Accountant behind, wailing in despair.

Rare nutritious corpses encountered had come back to life and fled, and she got beaten twice…

I did finish them off though!

Jié Jié expressed some sympathy toward Little Miss Accountant below before hurriedly leaving the area.

For the next while, he needed to wait for his severed limbs to regenerate.

Arthropods have insane regenerative abilities; aside from limbs, even eyes and certain internal organs can regrow.

So, what’s the cost?

Just a few meals of Giant Bees.

When his broken limbs regrew, Jié Jié soared into the sky in the form of an Extinction Dragon, landing atop the Coral Land Plateau.

The continuously growing white thorns and powerful recovery ability on the Extinction Dragon are proof of its high-speed metabolism. To maintain this regenerative capability, the Extinction Dragon also requires large amounts of energy.

Unlike the indiscriminate Terror Tyrant, the Extinction Dragon won’t collapse from gluttony and is quite picky.

Their prey is often highly energetic and powerful individuals, sometimes requiring months of stalking.

But after hunting for several days on the Coral Land Plateau, Jié Jié didn’t encounter either the Extinction Dragon or the Abyssal Wave Dragon.

Climbing the tallest coral peak, he looked toward the direction opposite the Ancient Tree Forest, only seeing vast skies and clouds beneath.

Not wanting to develop depression from hunger, Jié Jié transformed back into a Fire Dragon and pursued something far away.

The first thing he saw was the towering shield-like mountain ranges, visible to the naked eye yet unimaginably distant.

Lowering his head, he realized he hadn’t even left the Coral Land Plateau yet; the endless land of coral stretched endlessly.

The Dragon Crystal Land, where ancient dragons roam, was much further beyond the mountains, invisible to the naked eye.

Jié Jié descended to the flight altitude of most creatures, filled his belly, then turned back toward the Ancient Tree Forest.

A pink figure stood on the coral peak of the plateau, watching the sky. The majestic Pink Fire Dragon Queen disappointedly shifted her gaze from Jié Jié.

He was just bigger in size, not the Cāng Huǒ Lóng (Azure Fire Dragon).

Female sub-species of Fire Dragons, Pink Fire Dragons, only choose male sub-species Cāng Huǒ Lóngs as mates.

However, strangely, their habitats in the New Continent don’t overlap. Cāng Huǒ Lóngs appear in the Dragon Crystal Land and Ancient Tree Forest, while Pink Fire Dragons appear in the Coral Land Plateau and Giant Ant Hill Wasteland. They need time and luck to meet each other.

Every breeding season, Pink Fire Dragons wait on the Coral Land Plateau between the Dragon Crystal Land and Ancient Tree Forest.

Jié Jié merely glanced at the Pink Fire Dragon. Once it disappeared from sight, his shell turned blue, transforming from a Male Fire Dragon into a Cāng Huǒ Lóng, continuing forward without pausing.

During her look-around, the Pink Fire Dragon turned back just in time to see the retreating Cāng Huǒ Lóng, letting out a loud roar.

Seeing the Cāng Huǒ Lóng not turning back, the anxious Pink Fire Dragon flapped her wings and chased after him, calling out during the pursuit.

Clearly, the Pink Fire Dragon’s flying ability couldn’t match the Cāng Huǒ Lóng’s, and she could only watch as his unyielding silhouette crossed the Grand Canyon, shrinking smaller and smaller in her view.

Deciding to cross the canyon herself to search for the Cāng Huǒ Lóng, a completely black figure finally emerged from the canyon, scanning the sky with a fierce gaze, locking onto the Pink Fire Dragon above and initiating a dive.

Pink Fire Dragon, K.O.
