Chapter 1314: Chapter 1299: Setting Out Chapter 1314: Chapter 1299: Setting Out Coming from the Void, without a true name, yet possessing a mimicry Talent so powerful as to be unreasonable, Yingdila. Although never spoken, this creature of unknown origin is precisely the existence that Muria fears the most.

Having the ability to swallow the Talents of any creature whole, and even to further enhance them on the existing basis, such a capability is far too overpowered, and Muria can’t help but feel that such an ability is utterly irrational; it’s beyond what Talent can explain.

In other words, the Egg of Void that hatched Yingdila, which was picked up by Muria’s grandfather Akmonde from the Void, possesses an extraordinary origin or background.

As a being who survived until the end of the World Community’s unification war, Akmonde obviously didn’t care about the extraordinary origin of the egg he had casually picked up from the Void and gave it to his grandson as a gift.

But what his grandfather didn’t mind, Muria could not afford to ignore; after merely testing Yingdila a few times, Muria also refrained from any reckless actions.

Because Muria discovered that Yingdila’s swallowing Talent seemed to have no limits, she could perfectly inherit everything from any creature as long as she swallowed it whole.

If the strength of the swallowed creature was much less than hers, she could even optimize it further based on the original, which was utterly unreasonable.

It was for this reason that after Muria discovered that Yingdila could even devour and perfectly replicate creatures with Legendary Bloodlines, he dared not test her any further. If he continued, he would be pushing his luck too far.

As an existence without a true name, he could not bind Yingdila with any Contractual powers. The only effective method was to play the emotional card, but Muria knew all too well how powerless such feelings, cultivated over a long time, were for truly mighty creatures.

It is like humans taming a baby dragon just emerged from its egg, relying on powerful forces and contractual suppression; the idea of domesticating a true Giant Dragon based on long-term interaction and nurture, hoping to win its favor, is pure fantasy.

Dragons receive a wealth of Inheritance information at birth and possess inherent knowledge. Thus, the human wish to tame a dragon through kindness and make it submit is impossible.

The tales circulating in Taverns, where an ordinary boy picks up a Dragon Egg, becomes a Dragon Knight, defeats all his adversaries, and returns home with the Princess, are mere fantasies; such stories could never happen in Reality.

Similarly, without effective means of restraint and harboring powers that surpass Yingdila’s, the best way to control her is through might.

Trying to control an entity whose life form is outrageously higher using familial bonds is an incredibly foolish act. The Inheritance inherent in these creatures’ Bloodlines can easily dilute the memories of long companionship.

Therefore, after some probing, Muria began subtly suppressing Yingdila’s growth. When he ventured into the Void, even though he knew well that Yingdila’s Talents could greatly assist him, he left her in Elasia.

In the Void, once Yingdila’s power grew to a point beyond his control, it’s really uncertain what could happen next.

“Look, brother, that is Yingdila!”

Remilia brought Muria into the desolate Mountains and then pointed at the center, where nine interconnected mini “mountain ranges” lay.

“This is Yingdila now?”

Feeling the volume of the colossal entity in front of him that rivaled the surrounding Mountains, Muria’s eyebrows furrowed; as an Epic, he could clearly sense the boundless vitality contained within the mountain ranges before him.

Such vigorous life force, if not well controlled, would by its mere radiation in a short span of time alter the surrounding environment, assimilating all the Plants and animals.

“Yes, yes, this is Yingdila!” Remilia said with extreme certainty.

“How did she get so big?” Muria exclaimed in astonishment. The creature before him, curled up with its surface covered with soil and rocks that could be mistaken for mountain ranges, was Legendary, yet its size was so great that there might not be many in the world that could compare.

After a brief examination of Yingdila in her Sleeping State, Muria realised that her current size had surpassed his own, a being on the cusp of advancing to Epic Titan.

While in the Void, the true body of Titans, compared to some creatures with exceptional Talents, couldn’t be considered large, or could even be said to be small, but for a Legendary being, having such a huge body was truly excessive.

“Yingdila!”

Facing the super sleeping behemoth, Muria called out, but after trying various methods, the creature ignored him completely, as if it were a lifeless mountain range.

“You see, brother, it’s just like this, no matter how much I call, it doesn’t respond. Do you have any other methods?”

Seeing that even Muria himself couldn’t awaken his playmate, Remilia was somewhat disheartened.

“Hmm, I do,” Muria answered affirmatively after a moment of thought. Then, under the curious gaze of the tall loli, he extended his palm, and immediately, the tip of a sword emerged from it, instantly filling the area with a dark aura that made the tall loli feel very oppressed.

“Is that your sword, brother?” Remilia instinctively distanced herself from Muria, and although she knew Muria wouldn’t harm her, she was scared.

As the murderous weapon, stained with divine and legendary bloodlines, appeared, the mountains in front of Muria began to tremble, and the thin layer of dirt and rock cracked and fell away.

Then, right in front of Muria, a head still covered in a bit of dust, similar to a dragon’s but even more ferocious, lifted up. As it opened its mouth before even opening its eyes, a dazzling light burst forth from the abyssal maw, rapidly expanding until it filled the giant mouth and shot towards Muria as a beam of light.

“Yingdila, wake up a bit more!”

The Fixed Star Beads, appearing golden and jade-like, surfaced around Muria, and everything was frozen. Thus, the beast with nine necks, each almost three hundred meters long, was fully awakened. Its consciousness quickly returned under the stimulus that threatened its very existence.

“Muria!” an excited voice called out.

…

“I wonder if these actions will please grandfather?” Standing in the regal, subtly luxurious Imperial Palace, the young emperor meditated on the throne, observing such a scene in Xena Pus.

One could see that of the original one hundred and thirty-two Floating Cities of Xena Pus, most of the buildings had been dismantled, leaving only the structures that had been there since the cities’ inception.

Even with many buildings removed, these Floating Cities did not appear empty. Instead, the leveled surfaces were densely packed with armored giants of the legions.

In addition to the giant legions stationed atop the Floating Cities, thousands of Giant Dragons could be seen flying around, their excited movement indicative of their highly agitated state.

“It’s a bit messy, grandfather will arrive soon, and he might not be pleased if he sees such a scene,”
The young Emperor, taking in Xena Pus and all around it, frowned slightly, dissatisfied with his dragons.

At this time, nearly half of the Empire’s elite legions were transferred to the Imperial Capital, so the airspace around the Capital appeared incredibly crowded with battleships and Floating ships carrying the main battle legions, moving back and forth in an unending stream.

Among this “flood” of transported legions were also some exceptionally large structures, which were Floating Cities – called back from the Empire’s frontiers by the Emperor.

The Floating Cities that used to make up Xena Pus were to be taken away by grandfather, but as the Capital of the Empire, the name and existence of Xena Pus could not simply fade.

If over a hundred Floating Cities were withdrawn, then an equal number of Floating Cities would be called back to restructure the Capital. The Senapus Empire, at the present, had such foundations. Even if it meant halting the Empire’s expansion, such actions were necessary.

Just as the emperor was making every effort to bring order to the scene, making it more pleasing to the eye, a presence appeared that he found familiar yet slightly oppressive, prompting him to stand up from the Imperial Throne with a respectful expression.

“Grandfather!”

“Hmm! Xiu, you’ve done very well!”

With the Luo Tian Mirror slowly turning behind him, Muria, taking in everything around him, greatly praised his grandson’s execution abilities.
