Chapter 390: Chapter 243 Hunting? Dining! The Element Gourmet

"Who dares to offend the great Lord Holba?"

As the stars burst and the Star Palace shattered, a flame giant with a broken body fell from within. But as soon as he regained his senses, he immediately saw a giant dragon opening its mouth wide, lunging at him to bite, its sinuous body coiling layer upon layer around him.

Crushing!

The dragon’s every movement could cause mountains to collapse and rivers to break their flow. At this moment, it unleashed all its power onto the flame giant, and the outcome was evident.

Crash～

The already broken, incomplete body of the giant was shattered in less than the time of a breath, countless spiritual flames, seemingly alive, scattered and overflowed from the entwining dragon’s body, fleeing in all directions, like a fire elemental legion on the verge of defeat.

An entity with a grotesque, incomplete form, a flame giant, fled in panic from the gaps in the golden dragon’s coiled body, but it hadn’t gotten far before a dragon’s head with closed eyes darted over and captured it in its mouth.

"No!!!"

A roar filled with despair echoed in this world dominated by fire, but with a crisp sound of shattering, the voice abruptly stopped, leaving only echoes lingering.

"Did Dragon Dad wake up?"

Gwen watched as the golden dragon charged into the Flame Domain, violently crushing and devouring a flame monarch, simultaneously surprised and utterly perplexed, she turned to her grandmother, who was deep in thought beside her.

"No, not yet, he’s still in his slumber."

After pondering for a moment, Selena looked at the golden dragon spiraling through the air, devouring spiritual flames, and confidently answered.

"Then why is Dragon Dad like this?"

Gwen couldn’t comprehend it. Thanks to Dragon Dad, she was a rare dragon scholar, possessing knowledge of the dragon clan almost on par with the pure-blood dragon clan.

Yet, even after reading many books on dragons, she had never found any record suggesting that dragons could respond to external stimuli while asleep, possessing such immense offensive capability.

If dragons had this trait, they wouldn’t bother hoarding wealth, painstakingly building lairs, recruiting servants, and creating favored ones. Why go through all that trouble?

It was precisely because the deep sleep period was akin to a calamity for dragons that they developed those despised racial traits of hoarding treasure and occupying land.

"Because he is an Ancestor Dragon, don’t look at him through the lens of book descriptions for ordinary dragon species, he isn’t limited by those."

Selena explained this way.

"Do Ancestor Dragons have such qualities?"

Although Gwen respected her grandmother and mentor, she remained skeptical. Ancestor Dragons, while rare, were not so scarce as to be unrepresented in books.

Though there were few records, Gwen could find quite a bit of information in the Star Tower, but none mentioned Ancestor Dragons exhibiting aggressive, predatory behavior during their slumber.

"Every Ancestor Dragon is unique, and perhaps this is Noah’s special trait."

"That’s too special."

Gwen expressed her inability to comprehend, as this entirely overturned her understanding of dragons. Though she knew her worldview was limited,

"Dragon Dad may have already awakened."

"No, if Noah had woken up, he wouldn’t have attacked in such a manner; it’s far too wild and primitive for a golden dragon."

Selena stated firmly, making a judgment based on her understanding of Noah; this dragon would never hunt like a wild serpent, which would undermine the noble and dignified manner of a Holy Dragon. She knew how prideful this dragon really was.

"Indeed."

Gwen had to agree with her grandmother’s perspective. Not just her Dragon Dad, but nearly all golden dragons pay great attention to their bearing and would never be so unrestrained.

Thus, the young girl’s gaze focused intently on the golden dragon that had completely devoured every remnant of the flame giant, watching its next move.

She was very curious; what would Dragon Dad do next after falling into the Fire Element Realm?

Not only was Gwen curious, but Selena was also very intrigued. She had never seen a dragon in a slumbering state that retained such an aggressive capability.

Logically speaking, when dragons enter a deep sleep, their entire muscles and bones undergo a process of sublimation transformation, so their consciousness and thought cannot awaken, and even their bodies find it hard to move.

Therefore, many dragons perish miserably in their sleep if someone discovers their dragon nest during their slumber; they won’t resist or struggle during the process, dying quite indignantly.

Under the watchful eyes of the grandmother and granddaughter, who looked almost like twins, the golden dragon that had devoured a flame monarch returned to its previous coiled posture.

Only now, its sleeping place had shifted from the Material Realm to the Fire Element Realm, meaning the devouring power that created the magic-free zone in the material world had also migrated to this world composed entirely of elements.

A large amount of flickering flames was consumed by Noah, and what the golden dragon devoured wasn’t just those floating basic flame elements, but also numerous fire element life forms with self-awareness and thoughts.
