Chapter 4: The Furious Devouring of Pangu King
Many dragons, especially the Tyrannosaurus rex, have obvious shortcomings. They are arrogant and self-important, vengeful, and greedy and ferocious. However, conversely, their strengths are equally apparent, namely loyalty. As long as they can be genuinely convinced, they will set aside their arrogance and offer absolute loyalty, unwavering until death
A gust of wind swept through, and a towering tree in the distant forest cracked and fell. Just as Kong San and the others had not yet regained their senses, a golden strange bird suddenly soared out from the jungle. This golden creature possessed the brilliant plumage of a phoenix, the ruler of the skies, and the form of a pterosaur, a predator of the heavens. Most remarkably, it had four gigantic claws shimmering with golden light beneath its body
The dim sky began to drizzle softly, with droplets falling gently on Kong San, yet he remained completely unaware.
Upon witnessing the tragic state of Pangu King, the white-bearded and black-bearded figures let out a heart-wrenching howl. They summoned all their strength and, alongside the red-bearded figure, swung the enormous axe. With a spin, the axe whirled fiercely towards the connection point between the golden monstrous bird and Pangu King. In a flash of white light, although the golden monstrous bird, which clung tightly to Pangu King, tried its best to evade, it was still struck by the sharp axe blade, losing one of its hind claws, and its abdomen was heavily struck by the weighty axe handle.

Kong Sanyi felt a wave of frustration; the phenomena encountered today far exceeded its understanding. Even though it was a Tyrannosaurus rex that looked down upon this mountain peak, when faced with these phenomena that were fundamentally on a different level, all it could feel was a profound sense of powerlessness, a feeling it greatly disliked
When the three bearded men arrived beside King Pangu, although his body remained, his face was left with only two gaping wounds bleeding profusely, and his eyes had vanished completely
The three Pangu did not expect that Kong San's target was actually Pangu Wang. By the time they became aware, Kong San had already bitten down on Pangu Wang's body. When the three Pangu managed to wrest Pangu Wang from Kong San's mouth, half of Pangu Wang's body had already entered Kong San's enormous jaws
Kong San had not yet recovered from this bizarre scene when a series of bubbles suddenly emerged from the spot where the Tyrannosaurus King had sunk. Two bright, round spheres floated to the surface of the blood. Kong San was astonished and focused his gaze; one of the spheres was an oval, multicolored dragon egg, about the size of Kong San's head, shimmering with a lustrous sheen, while the other was a much smaller bead, relatively dull in luster compared to the dragon egg.
Floating on the surface of the blood was a dragon egg and a round bead, which pulled Kong San's thoughts back to reality. He slowly approached the dragon egg, which was covered in irregular patterns that flowed like waves. Through the translucent, multicolored shell of the egg, Kong San discovered that there was a faint blood-colored flame flickering inside. As the flame danced, he felt a powerful life force that filled him with awe.

Only after the three bearded men disappeared from sight did Kong San feel a sense of relief, slightly lowering his guard. He turned with difficulty, dragging his heavily injured body towards the Tyrannosaurus King
Kong San was just about to approach the two strange objects when a faint, ancient voice suddenly echoed in his mind, "The hope of the Tyrannosaurus clan... is entrusted to you... consume that dragon ball fragment... power..."
Kong San had not fared much better; the figure of Pangu King was at least twice his size. Swallowing half of its body was already a considerable challenge. Furthermore, with Blackbeard desperately tearing at the beast skin, Pangu King's waist suddenly deformed, and a sharp bone fragment from an unknown part viciously pierced Kong San's delicate throat
The pillar of support collapsed with a thunderous crash, and Kong San felt as if the world had plunged into darkness, with not a glimmer of light in sight
However, winning the complete loyalty of the Primordial Tyrant—Tyrannosaurus Rex—is often a hundred times more difficult than killing them. Nevertheless, the Tyrant King, belonging to the same Tyrannosaurus lineage, achieved this, which is why Kong San willingly pledged his loyalty
The Tyrannosaurus clan is highly sensitive to bloodlines. Although Kong San is separated from the Tyrannosaurus King by countless generations, being immersed in the viscous blood pool formed from the blood of the Tyrannosaurus King, he can still feel the intense oppression. Although the Tyrannosaurus King is dead, the body must not be left here; it should be taken back to the Holy Mountain
Kong San has begun to faintly understand that the hope of the Tyrannosaurus clan mentioned by the Tyrannosaurus King should refer to the dragon egg left behind by him. Only the descendants of the Tyrannosaurus King can be regarded as the hope of the entire Tyrannosaurus clan
The Hope of the Tyrannosaurus Clan
Kong San lay prostrate on the ground, gasping out fresh blood, unable to discern whether the blood he expelled was more from the King Pangu or from himself.
How terrifying is an angry Tyrannosaurus Rex? This is difficult to estimate, but an angry Tyrannosaurus Rex, if it fully opens its massive jaws, could even swallow a creature of its own enormous size in one bite
Glimpsing the three Pangu rushing in right after the axe, the severely injured golden monster bird no longer dared to underestimate its opponent. Reluctantly abandoning the body of the Pangu King, it struggled to soar into the air, fleeing high above. Unfortunately, its abdomen was severely injured, compounded by the loss of a limb and significant blood loss. Although it managed to escape into the sky, it quickly lost its balance and plummeted towards a uniquely shaped bell-like mountain peak, emitting a melodious buzzing sound.
The Pangu looked at Kong San, whose body was covered in blood yet whose eyes were sharp and fierce, and then glanced at the battered form of Pangu Wang. They seemed hesitant to take any further risks. With great effort, they lifted Pangu Wang's body, and after a reluctant glare at Kong San, they turned around and left with difficulty
The target of this four-legged monster bird is actually Pangu King. Its enormous wings, capable of blocking out the sky and sun, suddenly flapped, creating a fierce wind. Just as Whitebeard and Blackbeard, who had just regained their senses, were blown away, the monster bird extended its four claws and fiercely grasped Pangu King's head. Two of its claws even pierced into Pangu King's eyes. The monster bird flapped its wings repeatedly, intending to carry this colossal being into the sky. Unfortunately, even though Pangu King was left with only half of his body, he still had the size of an adult Tyrannosaurus rex. Despite the monster bird's desperate flapping, the ascent speed of Pangu King's body remained exceedingly slow.

At this moment, the blood pool, which had already begun to solidify and chill, suddenly boiled violently. Strands of blood-red patterns gradually spread upward along the walls of the deep pit. After reaching the edge of the pit, the blood patterns did not stop; instead, they intertwined in the air to form a semi-circular blood-red light curtain that emitted a faint ethereal glow, enveloping the entire deep pit. The light curtain appeared transparent yet felt substantial, isolating the inside and outside of the pit into two distinct worlds, preventing even the raindrops from the sky from falling into the pit. With the emergence of the light curtain, the water level of the blood pool rose ominously, reaching up to the neck of Kong San before gradually subsiding. At this point, the body of the Tyrannosaurus King had completely dissolved and sunk from Kong San's view.
... ...
Even in a situation of severe physical exhaustion, the three Pangu did not forget to take away the giant axe of Pangu King. Due to the immense weight of this axe, after respectfully paying homage to it, the three Pangu somehow managed to split it into three parts. One Pangu carried one part, shedding tears and sweat, as they carried the body of Pangu King towards the distance. Among them, the white-bearded Pangu was the least injured, bearing the black-and-white circular jade plate; the black-bearded Pangu was next, carrying the intricately carved round log, which had a purple beast skin taken from the mouth of the hole; the red-bearded Pangu was the most severely injured, merely wrapping four differently colored vine strips of unknown material around his waist, stumbling along at the back.
Unfortunately, Kong San was severely injured in a series of battles. The body of the Tyrannosaurus King was enormous, and this deep pit was filled with exceptionally viscous blood. Kong San pulled with all his might, but not only did he fail to drag the Tyrannosaurus King out of the pit, he was also toppled into the blood pool by the overturned body of the Tyrannosaurus King.
Blackbeard lunged forward recklessly, prying open Kong San's large mouth, and only managed to tear away the beast skin that Pangu Wang had wrapped around his waist. Meanwhile, Pangu Wang's entire lower body had already suffered the devastating kiss of the dragon. As Kong San and Blackbeard forcefully tore at each other, a copious amount of bright red blood sprayed into the air, splattering even the ten or so Pangu corpses lying in the distance with blood.
Kong San could not understand why the Tyrannosaurus Rex would bleed out a volume of blood several times its own body capacity, and he had no time to ponder this. When Kong San stood up again after being choked by the blood, he found that the Tyrannosaurus Rex had changed from lying on its side to lying flat, making it even more difficult to move.
The Tyrannosaurus King? ! Kong San's dim eyes instantly ignited with fervor, as it struggled to move its body, thrashing in the blood pool, searching for the figure of the Tyrannosaurus King. Unfortunately, Kong San found nothing; there was no trace of the Tyrannosaurus King's body in the blood pool, as if it had never existed at all
Although Kong San had never heard of the Tyrannosaurus King having direct descendants in the *Illustrated* books, it believed that whatever the Tyrannosaurus King said must be true. It only needed to obey the king's orders and protect this dragon egg with unwavering loyalty
The three bearded men were solely focused on how to bring the remains of King Pangu back to their tribe, deeply preoccupied as they hurried along the road. They failed to notice that the body of King Pangu, which they were dragging, was gradually shrinking, the bloodstains slowly drying up, and the skin becoming increasingly parched. Meanwhile, three wisps of faint, ethereal energy slowly seeped from the nostrils and lips of King Pangu, being inhaled into their bodies with each heavy breath they took.
This thought flashed by, and Kong San tightly bit down on the front claw of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, using all his strength to drag it out of the pit.
The sound came quickly and left even faster, disappearing without a trace after uttering a few incomprehensible words intermittently, leaving only the faint echoes lingering in his mind. However, Kong San did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, for this voice used standard Dragon language, and coupled with its aged tone, even if Kong San's rational thinking were poor, he could vaguely guess the origin of this voice.
Whitebeard wept loudly while holding half of Pangu King's body, Blackbeard stared blankly at the animal skin in his hand, and Redbeard, in a fit of rage, lunged at the giant axe, intending to wield it to kill Kong San. Unfortunately, not only was he unable to lift the giant axe, but he also aggravated his rib injury due to excessive force, crying out in pain.
Wang... Kong San choked with emotion as he entered the deep pit filled with viscous blood, prostrating himself beside the Tyrannosaurus King, rubbing his forehead against it. If it had tear glands, it would surely be crying more sorrowfully than the three bearded Pangu. For all Tyrannosaurs, the Tyrannosaurus King is not only their leader but also their spiritual support. In this world, it is the Tyrannosaurus King, the overlord of the land, that gives rise to the magnificent Tyrannosaurus clan. Now that the Tyrannosaurus King has passed away, what will become of the fate of the Tyrannosaurus clan?
