Ashen Lao-Shan Lung

Lao-Shan Lung's name in all languages is derived from the Chinese word for "Old Mountain Dragon" (老山龙/老山龍, Lǎo Shān Lóng).

This is a big species of Elder Dragon, measuring between 45 and 75 meters in length. With a huge body, the head is small, and the tail and long neck make up nearly half of the body. It's a quadruped drake with four legs, resembling a crocodile, with a single horn on top of its well-developed red shell. Its mouth contains a few larger teeth on the exterior of several smaller teeth. Because of lahar flows and volcanic ash, the Ashen Lao-Shan Lung is a variant species of Lao-Shan Lung that was found living in a volcanic environment. Because volcanic ash has stuck to this Lao-Shan Lung's shell, it has taken on a grayish hue.

Ashen Lao-Shan Lung is incredibly submissive; it only attacks animals directly if they interfere with its food supply. Although it frequently ignores hunters, the beast will demolish any building that is in its way. When Ashen Lao-Shan Lung uses mazuku, she discharges more dragon energy from her mouth than usual. They still have the same city-crushing strength as a typical Lao-Shan lung, but because the ash and soot harden their bodies, it is much more difficult to penetrate them.

• Earthquakes: From its immense size, Lao-Shan Lung can cause damage to settlements just by simply walking.

Like many other Elder Dragons, Lao-Shan Lung has been around since ancient times and has been documented throughout history. Lao-Shan Lung is believed to feed on minerals, ores, insects, livestock, pine cones and even there are scavengers, also eat carcass; however, because little is known about it, a lot about its ecology is still correct. This dragon lead to bad luck on hunts with five or more for survivors or tames, with many hunts leading to the death of comrades in the end, but the sociologists and psychologists need to clarified the Lao-Shan Lung's curse forwards the monks.

From its enormous size, Lao-Shan Lung has no creatures to fear, but it has been reported that it seems to fear some kind of powerful monster like Safi'jiiva, Rukodiora, Radachalog, Drakolossia, Alatreon, Rathalos, Magnamalo, Stinkmink, to Kushala Daora; but many scholars don't believe in that old fairy tale and historical records. Though much is still unknown about the species, such as the juvenile form of a Lao-Shan Lung and their breeding habits, the ecologist is certain that those individuals are already mature. There are simply juveniles that haven't reached adulthood yet, but that is far from the truth.

It takes a long time for this shell to form on its body and it is estimated that the individuals encountered are about a thousand years old, showing how long this process takes. Unlike other Elder Dragons, Lao-Shan Lung lacks wings and breath-based attacks, which is considered to be unusual for an Elder Dragon, but its sheer size makes up for that. Exception during its near death, Lao-Shan Lung unleashes the form of cloud of Chaos element in their mouth to bite causing Chaosblight.

Ashen Lao-Shan Lung is extremely docile, only directly attacking creatures that disrupt its feeding. The creature often takes little notice of hunters, but will destroy any structure which stands in its way.

Lao-Shan Lung can survive in many environments, but prefers mountains and volcanic areas due to the high amount of minerals there. Lao Shan Lung was one of the invasive characters invade both Poland to Papua New Guinea in uncertain times.

Before getting onto Lao-Shan Lung's back, you wait for it to kneel. If you give it some meat or minerals, it will take off, but don't worry—you won't fall. Turning to the third party, it clenched its back. After the initial feeding, wait a short while before feeding it again.

Alternatively, to tame it, survivors must steal Lao-Shan Lung's egg. The kids must be fed any kind of milk after hatching from these eggs, which can be obtained from a variety of sources.

Introduction of Various Fauna of Our World - 99,000 BCE

It is likely the multidimensionally regulated organization known as the Time Variance Authority that allowed Lao-Shan Lung and other fauna from another world to enter the "Sacred Universe", as Harry Osborn and his friends at Oscorp discovered with the help of the Avengers Tower members. It is still unknown where these creatures from Monster Hunter's fauna came from. The godlike hominids known as the Isu, were born with superhuman skills, primarily without the use of physical magic, but with the capacity to predict the future. This is unless the unidentified character known as He Who Remains, a variation of Kang the Conqueror, sent these animals into the cosmos to challenge the Isu species.

He Who Remains introduced numerous species to this universe in the prehistoric era after winning the terrible Multiversal War brought on by his own variations. Because of the gravity and oxygen constraints, he reduced the size of Monster Hunter's animals. All Elder Dragon species' skills were significantly nerfed, and he received help from Arishem and Uatu to have Monster Hunter's animals change into their own versions of themselves.

Bereshit - 75,000 BCE

Project Pashneia was the Terran branch of Deities' scientific effort to make any creatures—animals, monsters, or humans—in terms of their own to be used as builders. Lao-Shan Lung was the ultimate weapon they produced. Ashen Lao-Shan Lungs are known to feed on ore, minerals, and large to small animals in certain environments, like the Philippines and Papua New Guinea, as well as England and the Pyrenees in the 9th and 14th centuries. Fire-element weapons are a reasonable alternative to dragon-element ones, although they are marginally less effective. In Sami, people called Ashen Large Rock or Guna Lavo-Šan Luŋŋá in Norway attack the village and castle alike.
