In the alien territory, Rosie and Kyle walked side by side. The blue-purple grass under their feet emitted a faint fluorescence, leaving a series of glowing footprints.

A black shadow fell from the sky and hit Luo Xi, stirring up a circle of flickering light waves.

Rosie was startled, her voice trembling: "Caesar?!"

The little black dragon rolled twice, its black scales shrinking. When it stood up, it was already a little boy with black hair and amber eyes. He raised his head, his face full of grievance, and the corners of his mouth drooped slightly.

"Mom." He called softly, his voice trembling slightly.

Kyle's eyes suddenly turned cold, and a cold light flashed in his amber eyes: "How did you get in?"

Caesar hunched his shoulders, but quickly straightened his back. "I hid in the starship's storage compartment." He quickly glanced in the direction of the alien domain entrance and added, "I ran in when Father Fanxiao and the others weren't paying attention."

"This is too dangerous!" Kyle's voice was cold and hard, and his expression became even more severe. "Do you know where this place is?"

"I know!" Caesar raised his head stubbornly, his hands clenched into fists, "But mommy is here, I have to protect her!"

Rosie squatted down and reached out to smooth the messy black hair on Caesar's forehead: "Caesar, Mom is okay, you shouldn't come here." Her tone was soft, but her eyes were full of worry.

Caesar cried out, "I won't leave! I want to be with my mother!"

Rosie turned to look at Kyle with a questioning look in her eyes.

Kyle thought for a moment and said selectively, "This is not Taoyuan Star."

"But it's not easy to get out now." Rosie said softly, her fingers unconsciously stroking the Heart of Poseidon on her chest.

"We can only try." Kyle answered briefly, stepped forward and grabbed Caesar's arm.

Caesar twisted his body violently, trying to break free from Kyle's restraints: "No! I won't leave! I want to be with my mother--"

His words were interrupted. Kyle dragged Caesar towards the entrance quickly, his footsteps stirring up circles of light on the blue-purple grass.

Rosie hurried to follow.

At the entrance, Kyle let go of Caesar and pointed to the twisted space crack: "Go back and find Lingyuan."

Caesar bit his lip, tears welled up in his eyes, but he still shook his head stubbornly.

Kyle grabbed Caesar and pushed him towards the entrance.

The next second, before Caesar could react, he was bounced away by a huge force surging out of the space crack, drawing an arc in the air and falling to the ground in a mess.

"What's going on?" Kyle frowned and tried again, but was bounced back again.

Fortunately, the black dragon's physical strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, and Caesar can fully withstand this energy impact.

Luo Xi hugged Caesar in her arms distressedly, stroked his hair and said soothingly: "It seems that you can't leave for the time being."

As soon as Caesar showed his joy, Kyle poured cold water on him: "Don't be too happy too soon."

He squatted down and stared into Caesar's eyes. "Listen carefully, you must follow me closely and cannot leave for a moment. This place is very dangerous, and this is no joke."

Caesar nodded vigorously, biting his lip. Although Rosie felt distressed, she also understood that Kyle was right.

"Let's go." Kyle stood up and strode forward. Rosie followed, holding Caesar's hand.

The purple-blue grass shimmered beneath Rosie's feet, leaving behind shimmering footprints. Kyle walked beside her, his black hair blowing in the wind, his eyes warily observing his surroundings.

The deeper we went, the more eerie the atmosphere of the alien region grew. Plants emitting a faint blue light illuminated the path, but the surroundings were completely silent, leaving one feeling uneasy.

Rosie subconsciously grasped Caesar's hand, feeling the sense of security that warmth brought. The little guy frowned, not used to this environment, but he still stubbornly straightened his back, his amber eyes—the same as Kyle's—watching the front vigilantly.

"Don't leave my side," Rosie whispered.

Caesar nodded, seriousness written all over his face.

Suddenly, Caesar stopped.

"What's wrong?" Rosie bent down and looked into her son's eyes.

Caesar stared straight ahead with a tense expression, his black scales flickering coldly on his skin.

At the same moment, the Poseidon Heart on Rosie's chest felt a slight heat build up, and a sense of unease spread throughout her body. Her heartbeat quickened, her instinct telling her that danger was approaching.

"Caesar, do you feel anything?" Rosie asked in a low voice, holding the child's hand tightly.

Caesar raised his little hand and pointed his tender fingers forward: "There... is something there."

Rosie and Kyle looked in that direction at the same time. There was only blue-purple grass there, nothing unusual.

Kyle frowned: "Strange——"

Before she could finish her words, she suddenly felt a severe dizziness and terrible images emerged in Luo Xi's mind - Fan Xiao and Ling Yuan were torn to pieces, the children disappeared into the darkness crying, and the interstellar world collapsed in a sea of ​​fire... She covered her head in pain and almost fell to the ground.

"Sissi!"

Kyle was quick to react, grabbing Rosie's arm and holding her. A powerful black aura surged from his body, forming a solid barrier that protected Rosie and Caesar. His amber eyes became as sharp as a hawk's, and his muscles tensed like a beast ready to pounce.

"Damn it! It's a mental attack!" Kyle's voice was low and angry, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.

The mental attack also took its toll on Caesar. He turned pale as paper, clenching his teeth as he fought the excruciating pain in his mind. His small body trembled constantly, and black scales emerged uncontrollably from his skin, growing denser and brighter, as if a powerful force was awakening within him. Eventually, the black scales covered his entire body.

"Caesar!" Rosie exclaimed and tried to reach out to grab him, but was stopped by Kyle.

"Don't move! He's breaking through!"

In the dazzling black light, Caesar's figure twisted and changed.

The light gradually dissipated, and a small dragon covered in black scales appeared in front of the two. Although it was still small in size, it exuded a powerful pressure. It raised its head high and let out a dragon roar that resounded through the sky. It was crisp and majestic, shattering the surrounding illusions.

Rosie's headache immediately eased and she regained consciousness.

Kyle's eyes flashed, and the black aura quickly condensed in his palm, turning into an extremely sharp blade. He seized the opportunity and slashed fiercely in a certain direction in the air!

"hiss--"

A shrill scream echoed in the void, and a translucent monster appeared. Its body was twisted and weird, as if it was made up of countless twisted spirits, exuding a disgusting evil aura.

"Damn it, it's a mind devourer!" Kyle cursed, protecting Rosie behind him. "They feed on fear! The more afraid you are, the stronger they become!"

Rosie felt a wave of fear. If it weren't for Caesar's breakthrough, they would have been devoured by this thing.

The Spirit Devourer also sensed the strength of its opponent. It made a hissing sound, and its body began to swell, absorbing the surrounding energy.

"It's getting stronger!" Rosie exclaimed.

Kyle narrowed his eyes: "Then don't give it a chance!"

A black aura erupted from him, and he rushed towards the Psychophagus like an arrow. His amber eyes held a cold fighting spirit, and each attack hit the enemy's weak spot.

The Heart of Poseidon on Luo Xi's chest glowed, and blue energy flowed through her body. She raised her hand and used the purifying power of her wood ability to attack the Spirit Devourer, weakening its power.

The little black dragon Caesar also joined the battle. It flew around the monster and spewed out black dragon breath from time to time.

Every time the dragon breathes out, the spirit devourer will howl in pain.

Kyle found the right moment, and the black energy condensed into a giant sword in his hand, slashing towards the center of the spirit devourer!

The spirit devourer screamed and disappeared in a wisp of green smoke.

After the battle, Rosie felt exhausted and had to hold on to Kyle's arm to keep her balance. Caesar also turned back into human form, his face was pale, but he held his head up proudly.

"Well done, son." Kyle smiled rarely and ruffled Caesar's hair.

Caesar's eyes lit up and a blush of joy appeared on his face.

Rosie squatted down and hugged Caesar tightly in her arms: "Thank you for protecting Mom."

The little guy nuzzled into her arms and muttered softly, "I said I would protect Mommy."

Kyle looked around vigilantly: "Don't take it lightly, there may be other dangers here."
