Xiluo turned the Titan’s summoned frost monsters against him, but Krono unleashed a blizzard of extreme cold, leaving the battle unresolved as Xiluo and his allies struggled to hold their ground.

• Krono Halifis used the Forbidden Sky Gem to ground the Dragons and charged Xiluo, while Xiluo dodged his attacks and struck him with Gladius.
• Krono trapped Xiluo with frost arms and sent him flying with a powerful blow, while Allen healed him and Karl intervened.
• Xiluo and the Descenders attacked Krono, but the Titan spread a freezing domain that disrupted their spells until Trixie and Allen absorbed some of the frost.
• Krono summoned twenty ice crystal monsters to attack the Descenders, but Xiluo used illusion magic to turn them against their creator.
• Krono recalled the monsters and unleashed a powerful blizzard, while Xiluo activated Dragon Domain - Extreme Thunder and kept attacking as Karl continued to be driven back.

Xiluo and his allies fought the Frost Titan while Barbara’s forces attacked from beyond his freezing domain, slowing his recovery but suffering devastating losses. The Frost Titan encased himself in frost armor and began destroying the Arcane Cannons, leaving Xiluo searching for a new battle plan as the Titan celebrated his apparent advantage.

• The Softscale Silver Dragon restrained the Frost Titan while Xiluo and the others wounded him, and the Titan’s attacks left the dragon badly injured.
• Abel, Koraman, and the other young dragons failed to enter the deadly cold domain, so Barbara arrived with soldiers, Spellcasters, Elves, and Arcane Cannons to support Xiluo from outside.
• Barbara’s forces repeatedly fired fireballs, arrows, and cannon shells into the domain, raising its temperature and slowing the Frost Titan’s regeneration.
• The Frost Titan armored himself in frost, grew into a thirty-meter Ice Giant, and hurled Ice Spears that destroyed Arcane Cannons and killed scores of soldiers.
• Barbara ordered the soldiers to keep their distance and continue firing, while Long Hair intercepted one Ice Spear but could not prevent further casualties.
• Xiluo realized his Dragon Armor was close to breaking and that he could not win a battle of attrition, while the Frost Titan destroyed another Arcane Cannon and gloated over his advantage.

• Xiluo and the Frost Titan approached a city, where a soldier fired a warning flare and the panicked defenders prepared to respond.

• Xiluo changed direction to keep the battle away from the city, and the Spellcaster and the city’s people were relieved.
• The Frost Titan stopped before a prosperous city with a lingering Legendary aura and accused Xiluo of leading him there to join forces with its Legendary resident.

Xiluo led the Frost Titan back to Niro City, where Barbara’s forces and the dragons confronted him with soldiers, Arcane Cannons, and coordinated attacks. Super-Concentrated Laser Cannons weakened the Titan and helped turn the battle, but he fled under pursuit as Xiluo and the Softscale Silver Dragon kept attacking.

• Xiwel and the bishops fired two Super-Concentrated Laser Cannons, striking the Frost Titan as Xiluo entered Limit Release and forced him to defend.
• The Frost Titan fled when the combined assault exhausted him, and Xiluo ordered everyone to pursue while he and the Softscale Silver Dragon continued attacking.

Xiluo and the Softscale Silver Dragon drove the wounded Frost Titan into the sea, where he escaped by freezing himself inside the water. After returning to Niro City and celebrating their victory, Xiluo fell asleep and received three achievements for helping defeat a Legendary Titan.

He praised Karl for his role in the battle and rewarded him with recovery ores and debt forgiveness.

• Xiluo promised Karl ores to aid his recovery and forgave 5,000 gold coins of his debt, leaving Karl satisfied with the reward.

After defeating a legendary Frost Titan, Xiluo assessed Niro City's defenses and sought allies, but hiring powerful dragons and adventurers proved costly. He asked the Church of the Goddess of Wealth and Dragon Mother Baili'er for help, while King Rovori Gerlo refused to send troops and secretly hoped the Titan would kill Xiluo on his next attack.

• Xiluo warned the dragons that the Frost Titan could return with an army, and they discussed hiring Xilian's parents, adventurers, and the Softscale Silver Dragon's powerful contacts at steep prices.
• Xiluo decided to wait before hiring anyone and visited the Temple of the Goddess of Wealth, where High Priestess Xiwel promised the church would send support.
• King Rovori Gerlo and Kexi rejected Xiluo's request for troops, deciding instead to claim they would strengthen coastal defenses and negotiate with the Titan if he returned.
• Dragon Mother Baili'er read Xiluo's flirtatious letter, agreed to visit Niro City, and left the palace after sending word that she was returning to her family home.
• News of Xiluo's victory over the legendary Titan began spreading through the Gerlo Kingdom, Blue Star, and the Central Continent.

After Xiluo’s victory over the legendary Titan spread across Blue Star and Domirank Star, several powerful figures took an interest in him and made plans involving Niro City. A week later, Xiluo had recovered, discovered that his Extreme Thunder Overlord Dragon bloodline was growing naturally, and prepared to contact the Ancestor Extreme Thunder Overlord Dragon again.

• After a week of recuperation, Xiluo fulfilled his daily agreement with Baili’er, then reviewed his improved stats and noticed his Extreme Thunder Overlord Dragon bloodline had grown without consuming thunderstorm crystals.
• Xiluo concluded that his bloodline had become innate and was now growing naturally, then took out the Dragon Soul Orb to contact the Ancestor Extreme Thunder Overlord Dragon.

Xiluo defeated Huo Jing Farien in the Dragon Soul Arena, then was overwhelmed by the Young Red Ancient Dragon Lance Tiamat.

• Xiluo negotiated the deadline from one hundred years to two hundred, and the creator established a contract witnessed by his enormous dragon head.

• Xiluo inspected the assembled Beastmen and was pleased that Steel Fang, Tīgǔ, and the other dragon-transformed warriors had grown stronger.

Xiluo gathered his followers and dragons to announce dragon transformation rewards, then proposed ranking dragon bloodlines by age, potential, and Dragon Soul Arena performance. The rankings sparked rivalry and determination, while the chapter left the dragons pondering the immense power of the beings Xiluo placed at the highest level.

• Xiluo introduced the Lady of the Dragon Scales Clan and told his longtime human and Beastman followers that some could earn dragon transformation, while Descenders could buy eligibility with gold or points.

Xiluo oversaw a mass dragon transformation, discovered that Karl the Softscale Silver Dragon’s blood produced exceptional results, and used the proceeds to repay the Church of the Goddess of Wealth. He spared the badly injured Red Dragon and ended the chapter preparing to hear Nina Bru’s story after she arrived seeking his seed.

• Xiluo assigned dragon blood to camp commanders, elite personnel, and Descenders, while the dragons and the recovering Red Dragon inscribed transformation arrays.

• Steel Fang and Tīgǔ recruited Beastmen across Gerlo's borders, and a month later Xiluo surveyed four groups assembled at Niro City's Eastern Military Camp.

Two years after Niro City’s rise, Xiluo welcomed powerful newcomers and strengthened the city, while Bosha Miste intercepted envoys from the Royal Capital who had come to invite Xiluo to transform the king. The chapter ended with the envoys paying Bosha three Gold Coins to let them pass.

• Xiluo assessed Ailan the Red Thunder Dragon’s bloodline and listed the powerful dragons in Niro City, prompting Ailan to stop pestering him and Alicia and Koraman to resolve to keep improving.
• The Church of the Goddess of Wealth stationed the Golden Cross Legion in Niro City, and Xiluo hosted its members, Ailan, and Nina at a banquet.
• Followers of the Storm God tried to convert Xiluo, but he had the Temple of the Goddess of Wealth deal with them as more powerful people joined his ranks and he unlocked three achievements.
• Two years later, envoys from the Royal Capital arrived in Niro City to honor their agreement and invite Xiluo to perform Dragon Transformation on the king.
• Bosha Miste stopped the envoys, questioned their credentials, and demanded proof of their sincerity, so their leader tossed him three Gold Coins.

Two years after his previous visit, the Royal Capital’s envoy reached Niro City and found it far more prosperous and powerful than he remembered. After he and his knights disparaged the city and clashed with its subjects and patrols, they were captured, released by Lord Bosha, and finally brought before Xiluo Utrasis.
