A gigantic black flood dragon crashed into the Black Dragon Abyss, instantly sending towering waves into the sky.
Blood streamed from Black Flood Dragon, staining the sea. He plunged deeper and deeper, descending ten thousand miles to the ocean floor, then slipped into an ancient underwater cavern and coiled atop an age-worn altar.
