Chapter 33: The Beginning

```

In the depths of the Hidden Reef Domain, within the deep cavern of the Dragon Pool.

A Jiao Beast, over sixty zhang in length with a body cast from molten iron, coiled there.

The beast's body was pitch-black, its surface covered with a layer of dark, lustrous Dragon Scales, the edges of the scales sharp as blades, sending chills down one's spine.

Beyond that, the beast possessed four massive claws beneath its belly, akin to Divine Weapons, exuding a penetrating chill, while atop its head, a pair of Jiao horns were crystal clear. Its large eyes were slightly closed as if it were resting, but even without anger, an oppressive and terrifying might exuded, leaving one gasping for breath.

At that moment, the enormous eyes of the Jiao Beast suddenly snapped open.

Malice and icy coldness lurked within those eyes.

This was the king of the Jiao Clan, on the verge of breaking into the Fifth Grade, about to Transform into a Dragon, an existence of terror.
