"Calamity-Splitting..."
Waves surged across the Azure Sea.
Dragon King Dongzhu stood concealed within the Azure Sea, watching Hope Sea fall below him. A chill crept into his gaze as he said languidly, "I suspect this Calamity-Splitting has already been possessed."

Dragon King Dongren had long since been devoured by him.
Now Dongzhu was the only one of the Dragon Lord's offspring left.
At the thought, a chill rose
