At this moment, Kong San had no mood to consider these matters. Behind this body, countless shadows suddenly appeared on the ground, gradually growing larger. It seemed as if Pangu rain was falling from the sky, with deafening explosions occurring one after another. It was unknown how many Pangu had fallen again. The ground was filled with shockwaves, fierce winds howled, and sand and stones soared into the air. In an instant, dust obscured the sun, and the sky darkened.

That dazzling ray of colorful light instantly split into two, transforming into one red and one white beam. Before long, they each vanished, and a hissing sound emanated from the direction of the holy mountain, accompanied by a thick smoke that shot into the air. The rumbling sound gradually subsided.

Kong San's little heart truly could not withstand these successive anomalies, but faced with this white light filled with a sense of danger, it once again helplessly buried its head in the mound of earth, evading the impending sandstorm. What has come down this time? Could it be Pangu again, or perhaps a Tyrannosaurus?

Once again, a high-pitched wail echoed. Kong San turned his head and discovered three bearded Pangu, their eyes brimming with tears, prostrating on the mound of earth while gazing up at the giant axe, trembling all over. Their excited demeanor seemed to have long forgotten the presence of their natural enemy beside them.

At the moment when Kong San and the others were left dumbfounded, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared at the point where two beams of light collided in the sky, flying towards them at a speed difficult to discern with the naked eye

Kong San once again felt a splitting headache; it was truly unsuitable for contemplating these issues. However, although he could not sort out his thoughts, he still discovered traces of Tyrannosaurus attacks from the wounds on the remnants of Pangu. He vaguely guessed that these Pangu likely perished under the sharp claws and teeth of these skeletal dragons. Yet, some Pangu were charred all over, as if struck by lightning. The source of such divine-like damage was beyond Kong San's comprehension.

Under the immense force of the surging earth waves, Kong San was thrown off balance, nearly falling to the ground. The powerful and fatal strike inevitably landed in empty space. Once he steadied himself, he realized that Whitebeard and the others had long since vanished from the attack range

Kong San and the Pangu were abruptly interrupted in their intense clash of life and death. With a rumbling akin to an earthquake emanating from the direction of the distant holy mountain, before Kong San and the others could regain their senses, a thunderous explosion echoed through the sky. A colossal Pangu, large enough to rival Kong San, descended from above, landing heavily beside them. The immense pressure generated a whirlwind of dust that surged forth like a tidal wave, engulfing the battlefield where one dragon and three Pangu were locked in combat.

At just a glance, Kong San and the three Pangu simultaneously let out a lamenting cry

Yet this moment of tranquility is indeed the calm before the storm. The erupting sacred mountain seems to have provoked the wrath of the gods, as the originally clear sky instantaneously lost its color, plunging into a haze of gray, with even the sun seemingly hiding its face in fear. At this moment, the previously concealed red and white beams of dazzling light reappeared on the horizon, colliding with each other, radiating a brilliance several times more resplendent than before. After emitting a blinding glow, they suddenly merged into one, trailing a long, colorful tail as they fell into the distance, disappearing from sight.

In the eyes of Kong San, the appearance of the Pangu King was not significantly different from that of the three bearded men, except for the lack of hair and beard; it was simply taller and more robust, with a physique that was twice the size of Kong San the Tyrannosaurus. Its skin was adorned with numerous strange, colorful beast patterns, densely packed, even covering its face with intricate designs. However, this was not what astonished Kong San. What truly surprised him was that the Pangu King had a piece of purple beast skin wrapped around its waist, barely covering its lower abdomen. This was something that neither the three bearded men nor the Pangu who descended from the heavens possessed. Kong San was not a Pangu and did not understand the special significance of having a piece of beast skin around the waist.

With just one glance, Kong San was stunned, a deep sense of sorrow and indignation surged within him. What filled Kong San with grief and anger was not the ravaged and devastated land, nor the bizarre Pangu with its severed limbs and unclosed eyes, but rather the scattered pale golden fragments of bones evenly distributed around Pangu's corpse.

The language of dragons has only one pitch, which is a rising tone, thus it sounds like a chant. Coincidentally, the word "king" in the language of Pangu is also in a rising tone. In an instant, the dragon's roar and the long cry complement each other, spiraling upwards, resonating through the sky, enduring through time

Different races determine different ways of thinking, and different ways of thinking also determine their different destinies, whether in the present or in the distant future

This giant axe is composed of a round jade disc with alternating black and white colors and a yellow wooden stick intricately carved with numerous patterns. The edge of the shimmering round jade disc is extremely sharp, and at the center of the disc, eight hollow square holes are neatly arranged in two rows. Four slender, differently colored old vines pass through the square holes, entwining around the patterned yellow wooden stick, firmly binding the jade disc and the stick together, inseparable and appearing as if they were naturally formed.

At that moment, suddenly, a deep rumbling sound echoed again from the direction of the distant sacred mountain. The sound was extremely muffled and strange, emanating from the depths of the earth, resonating with a chilling intensity. Kong San and the Pangu group instinctively turned their heads, and as soon as they did, they saw a dazzling beam of colorful light shooting up from the peak of the sacred mountain, resembling a spear, piercing straight into the sky.

Under such terrifying "natural disasters," the severely injured Kong San could only curl up his body once again, trying his best to evade these extraterrestrial objects, fearing that he might be struck directly and suffer a tragic fate. However, misfortune does not come alone; just as Kong San was desperately fleeing, a massive body nearly brushed against him and crashed into the ground, creating an irregular large pit. The shockwave that surged from the pit directly knocked Kong San to the ground, burying him in the subsequent dust.

The Tyrannosaurus King lay quietly on its side in another deep pit. Unlike the seemingly unscathed Pangu King, a massive, gaping wound extended from its jaw down to its abdomen, with blood flowing in a trickle that even submerged half of its body. The Tyrannosaurus King was exceptionally large, much more robust than the Pangu King. Its sharply defined, enormous head was covered with countless intersecting scars, including claw marks, bite marks, and many other indistinguishable wounds. These were all old injuries, testifying to the glorious life of the Tyrannosaurus King. For all Tyrannosaurs in this world, they represented supreme honor, as these scars were medals earned in the defense of their entire species.

A strange rustling sound suddenly made Kong San turn his head. To his astonishment, he discovered that the source of the sound was three Pangu who had vanished into the swirling dust. Like Kong San, they emerged from the earth, their heads exposed, covered in dust, and looking disheveled. What surprised Kong San was that they were actually crying, their solemn gazes fixed on the even uglier Pangu below, whose bodies were covered in various beastly patterns. Although their sobs were not loud, they were streaming with snot and tears, exuding an extraordinary sadness.

This is a marvelous world where surprises can happen at any moment

As Kong San's thoughts began to stir, a rumbling sound erupted from beneath the ground. This time, the entire mountain seemed to tremble, and countless peaks in the distance erupted like sacred mountains. In an instant, the visible area was filled with thick, rolling smoke, and the entire earth appeared to be shrouded in mist.

The Tyrannosaurus and the illustrated skeletal remains! Kong San stared intently at the pile of shattered bones closest to him, where fractured skulls, abdominal bones, tibias, and leg bones were mixed together, making it nearly impossible to distinguish them. The only relatively intact piece left was a small fragment of an arm bone, at the end of which three toe bones were still distinctly visible.

The recent Pangu rain has an extensive coverage, not limited to the open space where Kong San and the others are located. As far as the eye can see, there are cries of sorrow everywhere, a scene of mountains of corpses and seas of bones

Almost simultaneously, the three Pangu also discovered Kong San, their eyes instantly turning crimson as they struggled to crawl out from the mound of earth

Opportunity

The Three-Clawed Tyrannosaurus! Kong San felt dizzy and disoriented, his thoughts nearly at a standstill. Tyrannosaurs are solitary creatures; they never appear in groups. The only place in this world where a large number of Tyrannosaurus skeletons can be found is the Holy Mountain. According to the legends of the Tyrannosaurus clan, only the powerful Tyrannosaurs with three claws or more can enter the Holy Mountain before their death, transforming into formidable bone dragons after death to guard the entire Tyrannosaurus clan alongside the Tyrannosaurus King.

Kong San immediately recognized that the Tyrannosaurus Rex was not due to its size and scars, but because of its forelimbs. Its forelimbs had a full five claws, a characteristic that, according to the legends passed down through generations of the Tyrannosaurus clan, only the great Tyrannosaurus Rex possessed. In this world, most dragon clans are similar; three claws represent strength, four claws signify nobility, and five claws denote supreme royalty

In that moment, Kong San and the three bearded Pangu were all stunned

Kong San was startled and was about to crawl down again using the same old trick, when suddenly a deep and wide crack opened up in the ground not far behind the giant axe. Two beams of light, one red and one white, transformed into two enormous shadows that erupted from within, accompanied by billowing white smoke. The white smoke quickly spread, and in an instant, the open space was shrouded in darkness. At that moment, the two indistinct giant figures also crashed to the ground with a thunderous sound, adding two even larger new pits to the already uneven terrain.

Lying in the two large pits are none other than King Pangu and King Tyrannosaurus, both of whom have now completely lost their breath

Thick smoke gradually rose, swept into the sky by the howling gale. At this moment, Kong San and the Pangu figures also discerned the silhouettes on the ground, the instigators of this natural disaster, a dragon and a Pangu.

The high-pitched wail still echoed, while Kong San and the three bearded figures of Pangu had already shot out, simultaneously rushing towards the Pangu King in the pit. Although their targets were the same, their intentions differed; the Pangu figures, with expressions of deep sorrow, aimed to help the Pangu King, while Kong San, with eyes blazing with hatred, fiercely lunged at the Pangu King.

Uncertain how much time had passed, the "Pangu Rain" finally ceased, and the dust in the sky gradually returned to the earth. Covered in sand, dust, mud, and grass clippings, Kong San, resembling a muddy dragon, cautiously emerged from a mound of earth, opening his fearful eyes wide to survey the surrounding environment.

The white light descended, radiating countless beams of brilliance, difficult to behold. Strangely, although the white light was dazzling after it touched the ground, the atmosphere remained calm and undisturbed, showing no trace of the overwhelming force that had accompanied the earlier Pangu rain.

Kong San looked up in surprise at the uniquely shaped giant stone tool. Although he had encountered various anomalies today and was no longer easily startled, he still felt his mind sway at the sight of this giant axe, unable to face its sharpness directly. Even with his limited knowledge, he could clearly sense that this giant axe was on an entirely different level compared to the crude stone tools used by the three bearded men; the two were worlds apart.

Why has the three-clawed dragon appeared here? What changes have occurred on the Holy Mountain? What has happened to the Tyrannosaurus Rex?

The white light receded, and a massive stone axe, towering a full segment higher than Kong San, stood in the clearing before the three Pangu. The axe blade penetrated deep into the ground, splitting the earth open with a terrifying crack.
