All the Dragon Beasts that had fallen silent suddenly began to wriggle irregularly, as the Primordial Substance inside them devoured their entire bodies from the inside. Then, those masses of Primordial Substance rapidly transformed, and in the blink of an eye, Dragon Beasts the size of ordinary Giant Dragons appeared. They didn't possess any strange armor or special enhancements; they were simply Giant Dragons.
But, there were just too many of them.
A regular Dragon Beast could transform into two Dragon Beasts shaped like Giant Dragons. Meanwhile, those massive Dragon Balls could turn into hundreds, those clamshell-like ones could become hundreds of thousands, and the largest Giant Dragon Balls could even transform into tens of millions!
From the very start, the god of worms had planned for this; it knew that competing in technological prowess against Long Yi was futile, so it had resolved to invoke a qualitative change through sheer quantity.
