Chapter 79: The Fifth Summoned Beast — Simon, the Endbringer Demon Dragon!
Somewhere beyond Blue Star lay the Demon Realm.
A world without a sun.
Within the greatest capital in that world, the air was thick with savagery and blood.
In the largest arena of the royal city, the ground was strewn with Demon corpses. Flesh lay everywhere, bodies piled into mountains, and bones spread like a sea. It was a scene straight out of hell...Only a single figure remained standing at the center.
“Magnificent! Truly magnificent!”
High above the arena, an Archdemon with an unimaginably terrifying aura sat upon a throne.
The Archdemon was extremely pleased. “Worthy of being my son!”
That was entirely true, because whether it was the corpses littering the ground or the lone Demon still standing below...all of them were this Demon King’s sons.
Beside the throne, a demon emissary bowed respectfully and said, “My King, according to your rules, in the death match among the 172 princes, it was His Highness Simon who survived in the end!”
“Who?”
“His Highness Simon,” the demon emissary reminded softly. “He is the child born from that Dragon Maiden...”
“Her!” The Demon King suddenly remembered and then seemed to sink into recollection. “A Dragon Maiden truly was exquisite!”
“Good! Crown Simon as the Demon Scion!” The Demon King strode forward.
“Only the strong are worthy of being my sons!”
The rule the Demon King had set was simple: only the one who survived the death match among all his sons could officially become the Demon King’s son.
He was just walking toward the final surviving figure in the arena...
when he discovered that the sole victor had vanished in an instant!
“Hm?!”
The Demon King’s steps halted abruptly, and he froze on the spot.
But he was not the only one. Every demon watching was stunned for a moment as well.
In an instant, the Demon King released a pulse of power. His vast and boundless mental force swept through the entire Demon King’s Capital in a heartbeat...
Then it swept across the entire Demon Realm...
“Where is my son?!”
After finding nothing, the Demon King flew into a rage and crushed the entire arena with a single stomp.
The demon emissaries all trembled in fear and immediately scattered to search under their king’s command...
...
Ye Ze had set the summoning location inside the Summoned Beast Space.
The reason was simple...
Since the race included Dragon blood, the creature’s size was probably not going to be small. If he summoned it inside the house, the house would likely be finished!
As it turned out, Ye Ze had judged correctly.
A streak of black light flashed, and within the fifth Summoned Beast Space, a black draconic figure roughly three meters tall appeared.
The Demon Dragon’s body was covered in blood, as though he had just come from a brutal slaughter.
That only made him look even more ferocious alongside his jet-black dragon scales. A dark crimson glow flickered over his body. Two sharp horns curved upward from both sides of his forehead, and his pupils burned with red light like the flames of hell.
Behind him spread a pair of enormous demonic wings woven from black and dark crimson scales, with bone spikes along the edges as sharp as blades.
His entire body radiated a dark demonic aura.
If he appeared in a Chinese residential zone, he looked dangerous enough to trigger a citywide alarm.
A panel of information appeared before Ye Ze’s eyes:

————
Looking at that luxurious panel, Ye Ze could not help praising the Trait Ultimate Summoning.
It might have been a one-time effect, but it was absolutely worth it!
His level was 16, so what he summoned could only be below level 16.
But this Demon Dragon in front of him was so powerful he was practically more terrifying than an ordinary level 30 Class User!
Six Legendary skills!
And every one of them was battle-oriented. It was practically perfect!
At the same time, Simon’s expression and voice were both filled with rare bewilderment.
“This is... where?”
Had he not still been in the Demon King’s Capital just a moment ago?
But now, with the summoning contract established, he understood his situation almost immediately!
“A mere human Summoner dares to contract me?!”
Simon the Demon Dragon exploded with fury.
His vast demonic wings spread wide, and as his roar rang out, the surging demonic energy shook the Summoned Beast Space as though it were about to collapse.
If a Summoner rashly summoned a dangerous creature, the result would very likely be backlash.
At best, the Summoned Beast Space would collapse. At worst, the Summoner would be killed by the backlash.
Of course, Ye Ze understood that perfectly well and had the ideal solution:
If a summoned beast was always irritable and violent, then more often than not...
it just needed a good beating.
With Ye Ze’s mental power, the Summoned Beast Space naturally did not collapse.
The moment the Demon Dragon roared, Ye Ze dispatched two figures into the space.
Panda and the mantis, one on the left and one on the right.
They proceeded with some patient instruction...
To be fair, the Demon Dragon really did possess excellent combat ability. He stubbornly endured for more than ten minutes.
“Wait!”
The fire in Simon’s eyes had grown extremely faint, as though it might go out at any moment, yet he did not care about that at all.
Instead, he stared at the mantis in utter shock.
“The Void! A creature from the Endless Void?”
Why could a human control a creature of the Void?
And how was an ordinary panda more terrifying in a fight than a Demon Dragon like him?
With the knowledge of the Demon race, Simon naturally understood how strange Void creatures were, and his fear of a Summoner capable of subduing one deepened.
What kind of world was this?
Simon fell silent.
Seeing that, Ye Ze was fairly satisfied and spoke to him through mental power:
“Demon Dragon, obey the contract. You won’t regret it.”
Without bestowing Traits first, making a dangerous creature like this submit was still rather difficult.
That was why many Summoners chose to contract summoned beasts that were friendly toward humans.
Fortunately, Ye Ze had Eye of Insight.
He could first look through a summoned beast’s goals and desires, then use that to achieve submission. He had already tested that method on the mantis.
“I can help you...”
Ye Ze activated Eye of Insight and searched for the Demon Dragon’s goal or desire.
“I can help you... kill your father.”
