After Galen's Dream Domain captured everyone within the Delarosa Household, Emperor Varan and a few dozen imperial guards looked at the familiar desolate world with a crimson sky, stunned.

They had unexpectedly returned to this accursed place.

However, what shocked them the most was the number of people brought inside. It was a thousand times greater than their previous numbers!

No matter how much Galen had grown, it shouldn't be a thousandfold stronger, right?

Emperor Varan and his imperial guards had ugly expressions as they stared at Galen's relaxed expression in the distance.

At the same time, Galen looked back at them and seemed to have guessed what they were thinking, making him chuckle a little.

"Kekeke, relax, little lambs. If I were truly that strong, I would be considered Divine already," Galen said with amusement before shaking his head. "But even if I am not Divine, the current me is not someone you can hope to defeat."

"You may or may not have noticed, Varan boy, but this is not the same domain space as before. It has lost most of its original functions and only has one purpose – to augment my combat power! It is a true Slaughter Domain!" Galen grinned.

Galen raised his hand, and a blood sword, brimming with blood energy, instantly condensed on his palm.

"Allow me to demonstrate," Galen casually stated.

However, in the next instant, he swung his blood sword at the crowd of imperial soldiers and guards without warning.

"Dodge it!" Emperor Varan roared madly.

Alas, the speed of a Peak Transcendent's attack wasn't something most non-Transcendents could hope to match. Even the dragons' magic barriers failed to buy the imperial soldiers enough time.

Puchi!

Galen's blood wave swept through the crowd of imperial soldiers and guards, shattering barriers, swords, and armor alike.

The fortunate men survived with bloody gashes or dismembered limbs, while the unfortunate ones were directly cut in half. However, there wasn't anyone truly fortunate after receiving a sword wound from Galen.

"M-My blood is... Arghh--!!"

Shrieks and cries of terror resounded as blood gushed out of open wounds, reducing the wounded survivors into empty shells of bones and flesh. Their blood was completely drained in a matter of seconds.

It was a terrifying sight to behold.

Furthermore, the blood was absorbed by Galen, enhancing his physique, recovery abilities, and blood magic a step further.

Boom!

Galen's aura surged wildly, pressuring those around him as he took a step closer to the ranks of Demigods. Everyone felt suffocated and oppressed, even the Delarosan members who had also been dragged inside the Slaughter Domain.

Even though Galen was their old ancestor, they couldn't help but fear what had become of him.

Considering what happened to one of the High Elders, he feared Galen only viewed them as blood carriers to exploit when he desired it. They couldn't help but retreat a few steps, drawing their distance from him.

Galen noticed such subtle movements, but he didn't care. As long as they didn't turn against him, it mattered not what they did.

"How... How can that be? The brother next to me only had a small cut on his arm... And yet he died just like that..." A horrified imperial soldier fell to the ground, feeling weak from the fear.

Galen's vicious and cruel ability had truly shaken everyone to the core. No one could imagine his control over blood would be powerful to such an absurd degree.

However, it also strengthened their conviction to slay Galen – all vampires had to die.

"Venerable Dragons, I beseech you to assist me in slaying this old demon. A scourge like him must not be allowed to remain in this world!" Emperor Varan urgently requested before stressing, "We must prevent another Blood Calamity from happening at all costs!"

"Naturally," Kuvat answered, landing on top of the inners with his fellow dragons.

Although the Slaughter Domain didn't seem to restrain them from leaving, they couldn't abandon the humans within to the newly awakened vampire.

It was hard to determine how much more powerful the vampire would become if it were permitted to devour the blood of everyone within its domain. Naturally, Kuvat didn't need Emperor Varan's warnings to understand the gravity of the situation.

Kuvat sighed with regret, "I didn't expect this situation to develop like this so quickly. It seems even I can't escape the pride and overconfidence of being a young dragon…"

"To actually let the enemy make a counterattack like this… This is a stain on my life," Kuvat's eyes clouded with darkness and gloom as he despised his weaknesses and flaws.

"Everyone, please put your trust in me and buy me some time. If you do, I will create an opportunity to turn this situation around," Kuvat promised.

Before his departure, the Supreme Leader had rewarded him with a barrel's worth of Divine-rank Stalactite Milk. He was hoping for a more opportune time to consume it and maximize his gains, but alas, the present situation didn't maximize his gains, but alas, the present situation didn't permit it.

"You have a solution, Kuvat?" Fraegar asked.

Kuvat silently nodded.

"Very well. We will buy you as much as possible," Fraegar agreed before inciting her peers, "Brothers and sisters, this demonic human has been far too arrogant! Let us show him the pride and might of our dragon clan!"

"The Supreme Leader must have purposely arranged this trial for us. Only when we leave his protection and overcome disaster on our own will we truly grow and walk the path of the strong!"

Roar!

Four Early Transcendent True Dragons responded with their proud dragon roars, shaking heaven and earth.

To their surprise, Galen's domain was also destabilized for a brief moment due to it.

Galen was startled by the momentary cracks in his Slaughter Domain, which weakened his control over blood within the domain space.

Such a flaw wasn't permitted to persist!

"As expected, your kind poses the greatest threat to me. Very well, I will take care of you all first!" Galen's blood-red eyes flashed with strong killing intent. "Die!"

In that instant, the blood-mist clouds in the crimson sky condensed dozens of blood-solid spears.

The blood spears rained down on Fraegar and her peers like heavenly rods carrying out judgment on behalf of the heavens – the friction of air instantly transformed them into flaming blood spears as they descended.

"Block it together!" Fraegar roared with madness.

The five dragons quickly combined their magical power to conjure a five-layered green barrier to shield them and Kuvat.

Sizzle!

At the moment of contact, three layers of green barriers shattered in very short intervals before the dozens of flaming blood spears turned into purplish-black sludges that refused Galen's control as they clotted and corroded simultaneously.

Surprisingly, Fraegar and her peers all thought of using poison magic to counter Galen's blood power.

Moreover, it was far more effective than they had expected.

'We can win!' Fraegar's eyes lit up.
