We agreed to set sail, so you'd become the ruler of the deep sea?

Chapter 468 [The Joining of Youxing] [Return to the Seven Seas World]

【prove……】

Xia En took a deep breath, realizing this was a crucial moment.

He turned to look at Xiange, whose dragon eyes gleamed with unwavering determination.

"I'll prove it."

Suddenly, String Song spread its wings and flew to the giant head of [Gana], chanting in the ancient dragon language.

These dragon languages ​​also contain ancient secrets.

In fact, it directly infuses the memory of string music into it.

Upon hearing this dragon language, Ghana was able to personally view the scenes from the memories of the String Song.

This includes the magnificent scenery of the Seven Seas, the present-day [Dragon's Nest], and the freedom of the ancient dragons soaring through the sky.

As she chanted, Ghana's breathing gradually calmed, and the lava patterns on her body surface stabilized.

Its massive body undulated slightly, and the vascular tissues extending into the rock wall began to slowly contract.

Shane seized the opportunity to shout at Grom.

"Now! Take the [War God's Hammer]!"

Grom had already taken the opportunity to get close to the artifact embedded in the rock wall.

He gripped the hammer handle with both hands, his muscles tensed, and the ancestral totem on his back lit up as he pulled outwards with force.

Grom, as the strongest dwarf in the Forge Realm, and having obtained a nearly complete Ancestral Totem, was essentially the successor of the God of War.

The sudden exertion of force at this moment naturally produced extraordinary results.

"Drink——!"

With a roar, the [War God's Hammer] finally broke free from the rock wall!
In an instant, the entire underground cavity was filled with golden light!

The runes on the hammer lit up one by one, emitting a vast wave of divine power.

At the same time, Ghana's body trembled violently, as if it were struggling against some kind of invisible constraint.

"Success!"

Grom raised his warhammer high and shouted excitedly.

However, at this critical moment, something strange happened!

"Rumble--"

The entire underground cavity shook violently, and countless pieces of rock fell from the top.

Those lurking sparks seemed to have been stimulated and suddenly became extremely violent!
Instead of attacking the dwarves, they all turned towards Ghana and pounced on its massive body.

The [Fire Seeds] crawled up [Gana]'s scales like locusts, tearing open cracks with their sharp claws and teeth, greedily sucking the flowing lava blood.

[Ghana] let out a painful roar, and its molten gold vertical pupils suddenly opened!

"Roar--!!"

A deafening dragon's roar echoed through the earth, and a violent shockwave pulverized hundreds of [Fire Seeds].

But more monsters kept coming, seemingly endless.

"They are preventing Ghana from waking up!"

"Xiange exclaimed in surprise."

Xia En's eyes narrowed: "We can't let them succeed!"

He immediately activated his Void Power, setting up Void Barriers around Ghana to temporarily block the attack of the Fire Seed.

Grom also reacted and charged into the battlefield, wielding the [War God's Hammer].

This divine weapon unleashed astonishing power in his hands, each strike carrying the force of thunder, shattering the [Fiery Seed] into fragments.

"Captain Shane!"

Grom shouted as he fought, "What do we do next?"

Xia En thought quickly.

According to the legacy of the God of War, they need the Blood of Ghana and the Hammer of the God of War to open the passage to the Seven Seas World.

But how easy is it to forcibly take away Ghana's hard work?
Instead of being enemies with Ghana, we should try to cooperate with it openly and honestly!

Therefore, Shane had Xuan Ge explain the current situation to Ghana again.

Randomly, Ghana's thoughts came again:

[Drawing blood... is possible...]

But it is necessary to...eliminate...the parasites...

Shane immediately understood its meaning.

Ghana is willing to contribute its efforts, but only on the condition that the "Spark" here be extinguished!
"Grom!"

Shaen shouted, "We need to purify the entire core region!"

Upon hearing this, Grom raised the [War God's Hammer] high above his head without hesitation.

"In the name of the God of War!"

He roared, and the runes on his hammer emitted a dazzling golden light.

“Purify these profanes!”

With his roar, the [War God's Hammer] unleashed a dazzling golden beam of light that shot straight up to the top of the void!
The beam of light spread across the dome, transforming into countless golden raindrops that fell from the ceiling.

These raindrops of light are harmless to ordinary dwarves, but once they touch the [Fire Seed], they will let out a mournful howl and their bodies will melt away like ice and snow!

"efficient!"

"Song of the Strings!" she exclaimed in surprise.

Xia En was not idle either. He fully activated his Void Secret Power, creating Void Vortexes throughout the battlefield to devour the remaining [Fiery Seeds].

The remaining dwarf warriors also took action, eliminating the nearby enemies.

With everyone's cooperation, the number of [Fire Seeds] decreased dramatically.

The remaining [Fire Seeds] also fled in disarray.

Finally, the entire underground cavity returned to a temporary state of calm.

Ghana's body trembled slightly, and the lava patterns on its surface began to light up again.

It slowly raised its enormous head and opened its molten gold eyes.

This time, its eyes were no longer ferocious, but rather held an ancient wisdom and weariness.

【promise……】

It looked at Xia En with a solemn expression.

Xia En nodded and took out a specially prepared container.

[Ghana] Without hesitation, it slightly opened its mouth.

A drop of blood, as brilliant as a ruby, slowly seeped out, hovering in the air and radiating astonishing energy fluctuations.

Xia En carefully caught this drop of blood in a container.

The moment they made contact, he felt an immense power, as if he were holding a miniature sun!

"Thank you."

Xia En said sincerely.

【go home……】

The name 【Ghana】 carries a longing within it.

Shane replied, "I will keep my promise, but please wait a moment."

The migration of dwarves naturally takes time.

Before that, Ghana cannot leave the Forge Realm.

Otherwise, this world might collapse in an instant.

Upon hearing this, Ghana closed his eyes again.

For it, a thousand years has already passed.

What's wrong with waiting two more days?
……

……

It didn't take long.

Xia En and the others returned to Molten City using a pre-prepared teleportation array and immediately began preparations to open the interdimensional passage.

In the central square of Molten City, Grom raised the Hammer of War high, while Shane took out the drop of Ghana's Blood.

As the two approached each other under the influence of the secret power, a dazzling golden-red beam of light shot into the sky, piercing straight through the dome!
"Rumble—" The entire underground world trembled violently, and a huge rift spanning the void slowly unfolded at the top of the pillar of light.

Through the cracks, one can vaguely see the azure sea and the vast sky—that is the view of the Seven Seas World!

"The passage is open!"

Grom shouted excitedly, "All tribesmen, proceed through the passage in the pre-arranged order!"

The dwarves, who had already gathered here, lined up in a long queue, carrying their most precious forging tools and heirlooms, and stepped into the portal connecting the two worlds with a mix of trepidation and anticipation.

Some of the dwarves clearly showed reluctance on their faces.

Although they migrated from the Seven Seas World to the Forge Realm.

However, after a thousand years, this place has become their true home!

How could they not feel sad when they are forced to leave their hometown?
Shane stood by the passageway maintaining order.

Youxing and the others from 【The Secret Realm of the Dark Night】 were also nearby.

Watching the dwarves line up to enter the passage, Youxing's eyes were somewhat dazed.

The Nightbringers around him remained silent, and an indescribable sense of desolation filled the air.

Xia En noticed their change in mood and walked over to You Xing, asking, "What are you thinking about?"

Youxing withdrew her gaze and said softly, "At least they can go home... while we..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but Xia En understood what she meant.

The [Night Realm] has been completely destroyed by [Filthy Fate], and they are now homeless.

"So, what are your plans next?"

Shane asked.

Youxing's gaze suddenly sharpened, a hint of determination flashing in her purple eyes.

"revenge."

His voice was soft, yet filled with deep-seated hatred: "[The Filthy Fate] must pay the price for everything He has done."

Xia En nodded, not surprised by the answer.

He pondered for a moment, then said, "In that case, why don't you travel with us for now?"

Youxing paused slightly, then said, "You mean...?"

"Welcome aboard the Black Swan."

Xia En said frankly, "Moreover, since we have a common enemy, why don't we cooperate?"

Youxing turned to look at his people, and their eyes were filled with anticipation.

After spending this time together, they have developed considerable trust in Shane and his crew.

"it is good."

Youxing nodded solemnly: "We are willing to join."

Xia En smiled and said, "It's a pleasure working with you."

After dealing with this matter, Shane continued to closely monitor the stability of the passage.

He noticed that, over time, subtle fluctuations began to appear at the edges of the crack.

"Grom, the passage won't last much longer."

"We must speed things up," Shane cautioned.

Grom nodded and immediately directed the dwarf warriors to help the elderly, women, and children pass through first.

The entire migration lasted for three full days.

As the last group of dwarves disappeared into the light curtain, the rift began to flicker erratically.

"It's our turn."

Shaun spoke to the crew members beside him.

At this moment, the Black Swan, guided by the Diamond Star, also arrived in Molten City.

As the last group of dwarves passed through the interdimensional passage, the fluctuations at the edge of the rift grew increasingly violent, swaying precariously like a candle flickering in the wind.

Shaun stood on the deck of the Black Swan, his gaze fixed solemnly on the distant, dormant volcano.

He could sense that a powerful force deep within the earth was awakening—Ghana was about to break free from its millennia-old shackles.

"Captain, all crew members have boarded and we are ready to set sail at any time."

Joey strode over and reported.

Xia En nodded and turned to Xiange beside him: "It's time."

A ripple of golden light emanated from the dragon's eyes in the String Song.

She clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and ancient dragon chants rippled through the void.

As the last syllable fell, the entire earth suddenly trembled violently!

"boom--!"

With a deafening roar, the giant furnace in the center of Molten City exploded.

The molten lava shot into the sky like a fountain, turning half the sky blood red.

Amidst a rain of fire, a mountain-like black shadow pierced the earth, and the lava flowing on its dark red scales illuminated its ten-thousand-meter-long, winding body—[Ghana] had finally fully awakened!
"pay close attention!"

The moment Shane shouted, the tractor beam of the Diamond Star suddenly intensified.

Two ships were lifted into the air amidst violent rocking, while the ground below was collapsing at an alarming rate.

The rock strata shattered like fragile cookies, and thousands of columns of magma spewed out from the cracks.

The entire Molten City was engulfed by a sea of ​​fire in the blink of an eye.

[Ghana] spreads its sky-covering dragon wings, each flap stirring up a lava storm.

Its long cry, emanating from its raised head, created a visible sonic wave, causing the mountains in its path to crumble like sandcastles.

Xia En watched as the [Fire Seeds] that hadn't had time to evacuate exploded into fireballs amidst the roar, like a cruel finale of fireworks.

"The passage is about to collapse!"

Grom's roar came from the sound-transmitting conch shell.

The crack in the sky was twisting into a vortex, with golden fragments constantly peeling off its edges.

Xia En immediately activated his Void Secret Power, and the dark energy enveloped the two ships like a spider web, pulling them into the rift at the last second.

At the last moment, Shane looked back and saw the apocalyptic scene of the entire [Forge Realm]—

The mountain range was shattered like a broken mirror, with boiling magma gushing out from the ground.

Meanwhile, Ghana's massive body traced a dazzling trail of molten gold across the crumbling world, like a shooting star traversing time and space.

"boom!"

With a sharp, shattering sound like glass breaking, everyone was plunged into absolute darkness.

When their vision cleared again, they were greeted by a salty sea breeze and an endless expanse of blue—they had finally returned to the world of the Seven Seas!

Shane walked quickly to the ship's side and saw the Ghana circling high in the sky.

The ancient dragon suddenly stopped moving, its molten gold vertical pupils meeting Xia En's gaze across the distance.

A cross-racial understanding met in their eyes.

Then it raised its head and let out a long dragon roar, flapped its wings and flew towards the distant horizon, disappearing into the clouds in an instant.

"It is free..."

"Sound of a String," she said softly, her dragon eyes reflecting the flowing clouds.

Suddenly, Joey pointed behind him and exclaimed, "Look!"

Everyone looked back.

Suddenly, the remaining crack in the sky expanded into a huge black hole.

Countless burning meteorites poured out from it, creating columns of steam hundreds of meters high as they crashed into the ocean.

That is the last fragment of the [Forge Realm] being annihilated.

Xia En stared at the magnificent yet cruel scene for a long time, until the sea breeze dispersed the smoke and dust.

When he turned around, he found all the dwarves kneeling on the makeshift rafts they had built, their foreheads pressed against their palms—the highest form of respect the dwarves could show to their lost homeland.

In the crimson sunset, like magma.

Grom plunged the Hammer of War deep into the deck, the still-wet lava on its surface falling into the sea like teardrops.
