Chapter 1039: The Great Red

Watching this adorable young girl make such a declaration, everyone present couldn't help but fall silent for a moment.

Little hearts couldn't help but pop up in Asia's eyes; she was clearly charmed by this cute little creature before her. However, a hint of seriousness appeared on the faces of Liuli and the others. Great Red is one of the two great Dragon Gods of this world, wielding the power of Dream; it can see the dreams held within others' hearts, and its strength even surpasses Ophis. If it did not possess this strength, it would have been unable to expel Ophis from the Dimensional Gap, thereby causing Ophis to harbor the thought of crushing it.

"Want to crush Great Red?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow.

Just at this moment, the space around everyone's bodies suddenly twisted, as if some powerful existence wanted to pull them from this place into another.

Lingyun raised an eyebrow, and layers upon layers of light unfolded from his body, instantly enveloping everyone present within a sheet of radiance.

Immediately, a Flash suddenly lit up from the Void, and with it, everyone's figures vanished from the room simultaneously.

The Dimensional Gap is the location of the world's seams, and it is also the necessary path for the High School DxD world to reach other worlds.

This void world looked like a clumsy painter's graffiti canvas, but it had been stained with an eerie red.

And in this space, the most eye-catching thing was the massive red figure floating in the Void. It was a typical Western dragon, with sharp fangs, a proudly standing single horn, and an unparalleled aura of oppression emanating from its massive dragon body. Crimson Dragon Scales covered its entire body, and every single scale released unimaginable power. Its massive dragon wings flapped slowly; every time they flapped, the power released caused a surge of ripples in the Dimensional Gap.

The massive dragon flew continuously through the Dimensional Gap, its every move fully displaying the powerful might of the ceiling of this world.

"Great Red..."

Looking at that massive dragon shadow, Ophis suddenly floated up from Lingyun's embrace. A massive Ouroboros phantom appeared around her body, and terrifying beams of light erupted from the Ouroboros phantom, slamming fiercely toward the direction of Great Red.

Powerful energy fluctuations surged from Great Red, and ripples dissipated around it, resisting Ophis's continuous attacks. The power of the two Dragon Gods collided in the Dimensional Gap, causing huge upheavals within it.

"Kin, help me!" Ophis landed by Lingyun's side again and took hold of Lingyun's hand.

Looking at Ophis's appearance, a bit of mischief suddenly rose in Lingyun's heart. Subsequently, a gentle yet powerful force suddenly spread out from Lingyun's body. Following that was an overwhelming dragon might that directly shrouded the entire Dimensional Gap.

Seeing Lingyun's state, Harakhti reappeared, standing side-by-side with Liuli. The powers of Creation and Destruction manifested simultaneously, carving out a protected territory in this silent Dimensional Gap and wrapping the others within it.

"Kin? Not kin?" Looking at Lingyun, who was releasing heaven-toppling dragon might, a hint of astonishment couldn't help but flash through Great Red's dragon pupils.

A massive beam of light shot up into the sky from Lingyun's body. Within the beam, a slender dragon shadow appeared before everyone. It was a pure golden giant dragon, roughly ten zhang in length, its slender body tracing elegant marks through the Dimensional Gap. The powerful dragon might even caused Great Red's body to pause slightly.

"Dragon? Mr. Lingyun, is that a dragon?" Asia looked at the slender divine dragon that had appeared before her, and a look of astonishment couldn't help but appear in her eyes.

"Not quite. Lingyun isn't a dragon; he is a genuine human. Hmm, you can consider this one of his incarnations," Liuli explained to Asia.

"So that's how it is?" Asia nodded, appearing to understand yet not quite.

The moment this dragon shadow appeared, a hint of astonishment couldn't help but flash in Ophis's eyes. Although she had previously sensed the aura of a dragon from Lingyun, she had not expected that Lingyun could actually transform into such a giant dragon.

After manifesting his dragon body, Lingyun's slender dragon form traced an arcane trajectory through the Void, and Earth Fire Water Wind simultaneously emerged around him, slamming fiercely toward the direction of Great Red.

Facing Lingyun's attack, Great Red dared not be negligent. Beams of crimson red flames suddenly spread out from Great Red's body. These crimson flames released astonishing brightness, and upon contacting the Earth Fire Water Wind attack released by Lingyun, they burned it all directly into nothingness.

Seeing that Lingyun's attack was effective against Great Red, a glimmer of light flashed in Ophis's eyes. Afterward, ribbons of massive energy were released from the Ouroboros phantom, tearing toward Great Red like giant snakes.

Facing the combined attack of Lingyun and Ophis, even an existence like Great Red fell into a disadvantage for a time. Of course, the three combatants were clearly deliberately suppressing their power; after all, if all three were to go all out at once, the Dimensional Gap would likely not be able to hold up for long before being destroyed by the three of them.

Seemingly wary of this, Lingyun, Ophis, and Great Red all deliberately suppressed their strength and did not release terrifying power that exceeded the specifications. But even so, the aftermath of their battle was enough to make any High-ranking Devil run for their lives.

"Non-kin kin, stop, stop!"

After brawling for a while, Great Red suddenly flapped its wings. With a flicker of its figure, it nimbly dodged the attacks from Lingyun and Ophis, and its dragon mouth suddenly let out a roar.

Seeing Great Red retreat, Lingyun had no intention of attacking again, and the golden light dissipated from the golden dragon's body. When the golden light receded, Lingyun's figure appeared once again in the Dimensional Gap.

Seeing Lingyun stop, Ophis tilted her head in confusion, then followed Lingyun in ceasing her attacks on Great Red, landing lightly by Lingyun's side.

"This was just a small return gift for you dragging us here to the Dimensional Gap without permission. Don't you know that this kind of thing is quite dangerous?" Lingyun looked at Great Red, who was flapping its wings, and spoke slowly.

"Apologies, I was reckless!" With a formidable enemy before it, Great Red decisively chose to concede.
