The Red-Eyed Scaled Dragon, the Azure Lotus Sky-Stepping Steed, and the Jade-Blood Heart-Devouring Snake.
These were the three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts people had sighted in the Spirit Sea Mountain Range.
Of the three, the Red-Eyed Scaled Dragon was the most mysterious. It had been sighted fewer than five times, so humans knew next to nothing about it.

A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast with the Dark Attribute lived in a mountain range where the dark element far surpassed every other element.
It reminded Yu
