As an extremely ancient Great Lord, Candle Dragon had spent countless years in the deep void.
Some Great Lords even believed that Candle Dragon had existed since the birth of the void, though Candle Dragon itself had never responded to such claims.
Great Lords were powerful, strong enough to wreak havoc in the outer void, disturbing space-time and even fate.
But Great Lords were not invincible. They were predators of the void, but not its sole rulers.
Within the infinite void, there still existed beings that could pose a threat to Great Lords.
For example, the Infinite Illusory Colors layer they relied on for survival, the mysterious game of unknown origin, even more powerful Great Lords, and the depletion problem faced by all Great Lords.
Therefore, if Candle Dragon had truly existed since the birth of the void, its power and experiences would likely be unimaginable to other Great Lords.
Candle Dragon shook its head, gazing at the slowly disappearing Illusory Colors of World Nine, and said to Dragon Nine along with the other gathered Great Lords:
"Little Nine, tell us what exactly happened?"
As Dragon Nine narrated, the solemn expressions of the Great Lords gradually faded, and everyone instead became immersed in a cheerful atmosphere.
For a moment, complex mental thoughts were transmitted among the Great Lords:
"Haha, Dragon Nine, you've been tricked by that little mouse again?"
"You fool! You reversed time a hundred times, only to capsize in the end! You must have spent a lot of Great Lord power!"
"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, Dragon Nine, you fellow, you're even more useless than the Dark Demon!"
"Damn it! It's fine to laugh at Dragon Nine! Why drag me into this?! Do you want to fight?!"
On the pitch-black humanoid form, ninety-nine blood-red eyes suddenly lit up, glaring ferociously at the humanoid form woven from light.
The light humanoid sneered, "You're already bound by the game outside the Illusory Colors of World Ten, and you still want to fight? From now on, you'll honestly work for the game!"
The Dark Demon roared and was about to pounce towards the light humanoid,
But in the next moment, several milky-white chains suddenly emerged from the Infinite Illusory Colors, instantly suppressing the Dark Demon back outside the Illusory Colors of World Ten.
Candle Dragon ignored the squabble of these juniors and instead looked reproachfully at the descendant of the Dragon clan:
"Little Nine! You were arrogant! Even the weakest ant has a chance to resist fate."
"You thought you controlled his time, yet you disdained to sense his thoughts, because you didn't believe beings below Great Lords could affect you."
"But in the end, you were still outmaneuvered!"
"Do not underestimate any existence! In the void, any carelessness can endanger your life!"
Although Candle Dragon didn't particularly like Dragon Nine, whose appearance was clearly that of a Western dragon, it was willing to help as a rare Great Lord of the Dragon clan.
It was just a pity that Dragon Nine still seemed incapable of improvement.
Gazing at Dragon Nine, whose eyes still flickered with hatred and showed no self-reflection, Candle Dragon shook its head and left directly, no longer bothering with this foolish creature.
The Great Lord with a human head and snake body came to Candle Dragon's side and said softly:
"Candle Dragon, I have a bad feeling about this World Ten game."
"Next time, should we also make a move?"
After a moment of silence, Candle Dragon said gravely:
"Wa Snake, when the game suddenly appeared in the Infinite Illusory Colors, all of us Great Lords sensed it."
"We thought that by relying on the game, we could obtain stable Great Source power and no longer suffer from depletion."
"For hundreds of millions of years, the game has conducted countless rounds, but under our disturbance, all worlds have become our pastures, and very few worlds have even been able to break through to the Infinite Illusory Colors layer."
"The Doomsday Game has shown no reaction to this. It has only, time and again, used a peculiar power that even we cannot replicate to condense the Great Source of complete worlds."
"But this inexplicable relationship finally had an accident, do you remember?"
Wa Snake's gaze sharpened:
"Are you saying that World Ten game might be like that one exceptionally large game world, capable of causing the fall of Great Lords?"
Candle Dragon shook its head:
"I just have a bad feeling. World Ten is just an ordinary medium world. Even the invasion of the Dark Demon almost destroyed her."
"If the game hadn't intervened, that world would have been gone long ago. Her foundation is incomparable to that of a super-large world."
"I'm just a little worried."
The brilliant golden dragon eyes gazed at the endless Illusory Colors in the void, as if reflecting an infinite galaxy:
"The outcome of that super-large world game, all surviving Great Lords cannot remember."
"Even newly emerged Great Lords like Dragon Nine don't know that such a thing once happened."
"But we old survivors must remember, it is best to maintain a sense of reverence for everything in the void."

Worlds that have not yet given birth to a Great Source, and lower-tier worlds, can survive in the outermost void.
Once a world gives birth to a Great Source, it gains the qualification to enter the outer void.
So from another perspective, worlds that can survive within the River of Void are at least lower-tier worlds.
The middle void, generally speaking, corresponds to medium-tier worlds. For example, the recently repaired Mother World can absorb energy to sustain its existence from the void worlds in the middle layer.
However, within the middle void, there are also some special existences.
Unlike the outer void where the great river flows ceaselessly, when the view enters the middle void, all that can be seen is a hazy nothingness.
As Chen Luo embarked on a new journey, with the repaired World Fetus breathing, the entire world gradually ceased to emit light and merged into this nothingness.
Because the Great Source of the Mother World instinctively felt that at this level, it was better not to stand out.
Throughout the entire middle void world, no surging waves or infinite illusory colors could be seen, only vast expanses of hazy nothingness.
But there were exceptions!
Hum!
A world as vast as a solar system slowly advanced in the nothingness, protected by a World Fetus so dense it had almost formed a tangible substance.
Within the World Fetus, a complete world of mountains and seas was radiating vibrant life.
The strong overlooked the mortal realm from the nine heavens, malice lurked beneath the nine abysses, observing the world.
And countless mortals and cultivators, unknowingly, grew freely on the boundless continent.
This was a top-tier existence in the middle void, a high-tier world!
Suddenly, the high-tier world advancing in the nothingness abruptly accelerated.
Bang! In the bursting void, a world emitting a milky-white light was directly smashed out!
And after smashing out the hidden medium world, the World Fetus of the high-tier world suddenly expanded, as if opening its mouth to devour the medium world!
Compared to the high-tier world, which was as large as a planetary system, this medium world that was dragged out appeared too small.
However, smallness was not a reason to give up resisting.
