Chapter 163: Truth, Di Tian’s Breakdown
Huo Yuhao leaned against a large tree next to the Xilu City gate, quietly watching the silver-white divine power soaring into the sky in the distance.
Watching the originally deep blue sky being completely dyed silver, the terrifying anomaly could probably be seen across the entire Heaven Dou Plain.
“Yu Hao, what do we do about this commotion?”
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm scratched its head in the Sea of Consciousness and asked Huo Yuhao.
Ilex was also helpless and sighed as he said:
“That divine power level is too high. Even if I exhaust all my strength, I cannot conceal it.”
“This is unavoidable.”
Hearing the words from the two residents in his Sea of Consciousness, Huo Yuhao didn’t mind. His black eyes stared unblinkingly at that pillar of divine power light.
“So what?”
“Once the commotion ends, Elder Ilex, you open the Undead Demiplane and take the three dragon corpses inside. The Space Dragon King will cooperate with your actions.”
Ilex nodded and said:
“Mm.”
“As long as the other party cooperates, there will be no problem.”
“Otherwise, I truly cannot break through the divine power defenses on their bodies.”
“God King level lives up to its reputation!”
Ilex’s eyes flickered with a faint light. This time, he finally had some concept of the God King level strong person.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm interrupted them and said:
“But this kind of commotion will attract quite a few people, right?”
“Will they affect us?”
Huo Yuhao heard his words and smiled lightly.
“What is there to fear?”
“At worst, we’ll have a real fight!”
“I, the grand Enthusiasm Leader, am I supposed to fear this?”
“Whoever dares to make the first move, I’ll nail them to the city wall with the Sun Wheel Spear! Kill the chicken to warn the monkey!”
Cold killing intent filled Huo Yuhao’s eyes. His creed had never changed: if friends came, he would treat them to grilled fish; if enemies came, he had the Sun Wheel Spear ready for them.
Having roamed the Douluo Continent for a year and a half, he knew that some soul masters here respected power but not morality. Only by making them pay with their lives would they obediently listen.
Hearing Huo Yuhao’s words, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm jumped down from the Golden Tortoise’s tortoise shell and said:
“Alright then.”
“Since you have confidence in yourself, Yu Hao, bro feels relieved.”
“If we encounter very strong enemies, directly connect the spiritual power of the Dream Space. Ever since the Magic Net opened, the spiritual power there has been accumulating rapidly every minute and second!”
“Due to quantitative change leading to qualitative change, the spiritual power in some places there is about to condense into substance!”
“Mm, I understand, Tian Meng Ge.”
After ending the conversation with the two of them, Huo Yuhao continued watching this funeral belonging to the Dragon King.
Soon, from the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest, a majestic black stream of light sped over. That stream of light carried seemingly endless darkness, devouring every bit of external light.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao’s mouth curved up slightly. He knew Di Tian had also arrived.
Near the East Gate of Xilu City, that black stream of light extended its body from the thick darkness.
It was a black giant dragon that blotted out the sky. The giant dragon had a pair of majestic giant wings capable of absorbing all light, and its sharp dragon claws flickered with cold light in the air.
The majestic dragon body, as if meticulously sculpted by the most perfect artist, twisted freely in the sky, its beast god authority oppressing the creatures on the ground.
All residents of Xilu City stopped their activities and returned to their homes in panic.
The Enthusiasm Members on the city walls swallowed hard, gripping their soul tool cannons tightly, ready to launch an attack at any moment.
Near the military base at the South Gate of Xilu City, a level nine Disintegration Soul Guiding Cannon from Mingde Hall was already aimed at the giant dragon’s wings in the sky. Charging was complete, and various Soul Guiding Cannonballs were loaded, awaiting Adam’s order.
Adam looked at the black giant dragon in the sky but did not order to open fire.
Through the Dream Space, he could sense that the other’s heart was filled with sorrow, but there was no malice toward Xilu City.
After Huo Yuhao’s spiritual power sensed that the residents of Xilu City were all trembling in fear, he activated his Spiritual Eye. Nine soul rings disguised by spiritual power circled around his body.
A pure white giant stood tall in front of the city gate. The pure White Giant was over two hundred meters tall, with majestic white wings slightly spread, and white feather-like light scattering across the entire Xilu City.
This light dispelled the pressure from the beast god. Many Xilu City residents, upon seeing the White Giant, realized that the Enthusiasm Boss had made his move.
With love and trust for the Enthusiasm Boss, some even walked out onto the streets or parks to gaze upon the figures of the White Giant and the black giant dragon.
“So exciting! So exciting!”
“To see two such strong persons! Even death would be worth the ticket price!”
Some soul masters gathered in a plaza, their faces full of excitement as they watched the sky. This was the first time in their lives they had beheld true strong persons.
Some tried to capture the opposing figures of the White Giant and black giant dragon from various angles.
Seeking the most perfect angle to post on the Magic Net and earn reputation.
Di Tian’s massive golden dragon pupils unexpectedly glanced at the white giant below.
However, he said nothing, proactively flying away from Xilu City and continuing to watch that increasingly brilliant silver-white light pillar near the Green Soil.
It wasn’t that Di Tian feared Huo Yuhao—Huo Yuhao currently posed no threat to him. Di Tian simply didn’t want unnecessary conflict to erupt at the Dragon King’s funeral.
A Dragon King’s funeral must be grand and majestic. Di Tian would not allow anyone to disturb it!
Gu Yue Na’s figure arrived at another direction of the Green Soil. At this moment, Huo Yuhao, Di Tian, and Gu Yue Na formed a triangular position surrounding the entire Green Soil.
She saw Di Tian in the sky, and Di Tian saw Gu Yue Na. The two dragons said nothing, quietly awaiting the Dragon King’s annihilation.
“Roar!!!”
A dragon roar that shook heaven and earth shattered the darkness brought by Di Tian, and countless rays of sunlight scattered over the Green Soil.
The silver-white cracks on the ground completely shattered, and a majestic giant dragon phantom, after countless years, soared in the sky once more.
Di Tian felt that familiar divine power. Tears flowed from his golden dragon pupils as he finally couldn’t hold back and shouted at the giant dragon phantom:
“Space Uncle!”
The Space Dragon King phantom twisted freely in the sky. Its majestic dragon head roared at heaven and earth, venting its inner sorrow. Hearing Di Tian’s call, its eyes wreathed in silver-white light turned toward Di Tian.
“Oh? It’s Di Tian!”
“It’s been a long time!”
“Hahaha! You’ve grown up!”
“Back then, in my clan’s territory, you told me you wanted to become a space dragon in the future.”
“I happily told those two guys, Light and Darkness, about it. I heard they beat you badly?”
“Sorry about that, hahaha!”
Hearing about his childhood, Di Tian realized the other was the genuine Space Dragon King. Only he would know this matter.
“I never minded.”
“Space Uncle, you were on the Douluo Continent all along. Why didn’t you ever come find me before?”
The Space Dragon King looked at Di Tian and said gently:
“Because I died long ago, on the Divine Star altar.”
“A human youth awakened my remnant soul. Hahaha, allowing me to soar in the sky one last time in the final moments of this wisp of remnant soul!”
Di Tian looked toward Huo Yuhao in front of distant Xilu City. Gratitude appeared in his golden eyes, and his dragon head nodded slightly toward him.
Then, with an anxious expression, he asked:
“Uncle! What exactly happened back then?!”
“Did the God Realm truly eradicate us without mercy?”
“We soul beasts now have our path to becoming gods completely severed!”
The Space Dragon King fell silent, looking at Di Tian with apologetic eyes as he said:
“Di Tian, sorry.”
“The Nine Great Dragon Kings did not die by human hands.”
“During the entire existence of the Dragon God Realm, human deities never betrayed us.”
“They were also the Lord’s subjects. We struggled together for the development of the Dragon God Realm.”
“The war between human deities and beast clan deities was a complete mistake!”
“Both humans and beast clan were victims!”
Di Tian’s worldview seemed to collapse. His golden eyes showed incredulity.
If the Nine Great Dragon Kings didn’t die by human hands, then who? Di Tian didn’t dare think further.
“Why? Then why did the Lord split! Why can’t soul beasts become gods?!”
The Space Dragon King was silent for a long time before finally saying to Di Tian:
“The Lord was schemed against, schemed against by the universe.”
“The Divine Star was a conspiracy.”
“Dimensional Ascension is a dead end!”
“Di Tian, as the personal guard captain of the Dragon God Guard Team! Don’t you know how strong the Lord’s combat power was?”
“Unless the Lord willed it, the Asura God could not split the Lord into two.”
“Nor could it be so coincidental to separate the Lord’s reason and madness.”
“Di Tian, regarding the soul beasts, forgive the Lord.”
Di Tian was struck like thunder on a clear day. Tears uncontrollably flowed from his golden eyes.
He wasn’t a fool; he was very smart. But now, Di Tian somewhat resented why he had to be so smart.
The Space Dragon King’s last words clearly meant that soul beasts’ inability to become gods was set by the Lord himself.
“Why?”
“Why?!”
The Space Dragon King shook his head. He too could not understand the Lord’s thoughts.
“Di Tian, what’s done is done. Just wait.”
“The beast clan will find a way out.”
“You’re still young. Keep waiting.”
“That day won’t be too far.”
Di Tian didn’t listen to the last sentence. This beast god was now distraught, like a walking corpse.
His persistence of hundreds of thousands of years turned out to be just a joke. At this moment, Di Tian really wanted to buy a red nose to wear on his face.
The Space Dragon King couldn’t bear to see his former junior so dejected and continued:
“Other beast clan may have no hope of becoming gods, but you should still have some.”
“The crowns of Light and Darkness should still be around. Go find those two crowns, and you can become a true Dragon King.”
Di Tian nodded painfully.
“Thank you, Uncle.”
“I will go search.”
“I will surely lead the beast clan to prosperity again!”
“I will personally find the Lord! And ask him all the truth!”
Light reignited in Di Tian’s eyes. Even Space Uncle had a remnant soul, so the Dragon God, being so strong, must certainly have a divine soul left!
He swore he would find the Dragon God’s divine soul and ask him face-to-face: why did all this happen?!
What were all the sufferings soul beasts had endured over these years for?!
