Give Douluo a technological shock

Suddenly struck by an energy attack, Hypnos's entire body crackled with leaping black arcs of electricity. His once handsome and neat golden armor and blood-red battle robe were now covered in wounds from the damage inflicted by an opponent of the same level!

hum!

"False god! How dare you insult me!!!"

Hypnos, who was suddenly forced to his knees by the enormous impact, was furious. How dare a mere pseudo-god who had just reached level 100 and had not yet obtained a formal divine position humiliate him like this?!

Feeling humiliated, he instantly flew into a rage, and then a crimson divine light began to flash on his body, and a complete divine armor continuously appeared on his body!

God of Slaughter's Divine Gear!

Having fully unleashed his power, Hypnos, with the high resistance boosted by his God of Slaughter Armor, instantly broke free from the suppression of the thick black lightning spear. He then flashed into the sky not far away, his blue eyes now completely bloodshot. His exclusive God of Slaughter Domain began to operate without reservation, constantly annihilating and reaping the lives within its range, which were then transformed into the purest blood energy to nourish himself.

At the same time, the powerful suppressive force belonging to the God of Slaughter domain was also fully exerted on the middle-aged man in the black dragon robe.

Hypnos, now clad in his god-like armor, stood high in the sky, his face contorted with murderous intent as he surveyed the enemies below, uttering a chilling glare:

"False God! You have the right to let me know your name! I will use your false divine blood to reforge my God Throne of Slaughter!"

"Long Xiaoyao".

The middle-aged man in the black dragon robe on the ground looked indifferently at the somewhat deranged Hypnos, while the enormous phantom behind him waved gently at him at the same time:

"Come on, let's see who's the best."

"Insanity!"

Xiu Prosper was furious. Although he was reborn and did not have the cultivation and strength of a top-level second-level god, he possessed the God of Slaughter Sword and God of Slaughter Armor that he should not have originally possessed, as well as the God of Slaughter Domain that made him stronger with each battle and could absorb the life force in the surrounding environment. In the sacrifice in the Behemoth City, he already had the strength to approach the third-level god or even break through!

How could it possibly compare to that false god who doesn't even hold a proper divine office?!

Deng!

The God of Slaughter Sword flashed with divine light, and the red divine halo behind Hypnos burst into light. A white light blade that directly locked onto Long Xiaoyao's divine sense instantly slashed through space and time at an unimaginable speed, fiercely slashing towards the expressionless Long Xiaoyao on the ground!

[The Blade of Killing Sense]!

This deadly attack, unleashed by Hypnos who was no longer holding back his power and whose divine sense was locked, struck directly at Long Xiaoyao, giving him no chance to dodge at all.

But does Long Xiaoyao need to dodge?

A cold smile appeared on Long Xiaoyao's lips. Then, the sword-like fingers he had been holding in front of his chest suddenly opened into a palm, facing inward to defend against the enemy. A vast amount of black energy erupted from his body in an instant, forming a light black, shimmering phantom with the surrounding energy of heaven and earth. A ferocious and domineering black dragon slowly circled around him, seemingly unaffected by Hypnos's attack!

Ding!

The white sword energy unleashed by the God of Slaughter Sword instantly collided violently with the light black amber-like glass phantoms surrounding Long Xiaoyao, unleashing a huge, ear-piercing golden sound!

Groan!

The enormous black dragon circling around Long Xiaoyao suddenly accelerated, and with a flick of its tail, it stirred up the surrounding solid energy, creating a powerful spatial shock that rippled onto Hypnos's God-Slaying Sword. The latter was instantly blasted away by this powerful force!

At this moment, a gentle breeze lifted the deep black dragon robe, and Long Xiaoyao slowly assumed a starting stance with one hand forming a mudra. The light black, translucent amber-like phantoms around him gradually deepened in color and became more profound as the black dragon phantom swirled around him.

Having severed his past, he now possesses only one ability.

The ultimate essence of martial spirit: Law of Heaven and Earth!

【Dragon's Domain】!

The immense power of heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of miles frantically gathered towards Long Xiaoyao. All of this energy was intercepted and solidified by the special energy field around him. The scales of the black dragon hovering in the air became even more realistic and dazzling, while Long Xiaoyao himself suffered no loss whatsoever!

The black dragon in the sky was constantly absorbing and exhaling massive amounts of the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy), and its momentum was becoming more and more enormous. Originally, it was a demigod who had just touched the divine realm, but then, under the watchful gaze of Hypnos, it quickly broke through to a level 100 priest, and was still increasing little by little!

"Impossible! You false god! How could you absorb so much energy from heaven and earth without the assistance of a divine being?!"

Deng!

Hypnos, whose entire body was bursting with crimson light, regained his footing. Looking at Long Xiaoyao's terrifying control over the energy of heaven and earth, which he had never encountered before, even he, a veteran of many battles, was moved.

Because only a God-King with nine layers of divine rings can achieve the ability to control external energy and transform his divine body at will!

"godhead?"

Surrounded by the black dragon, Long Xiaoyao remained calm. The wind blew up his dragon-patterned robes and his full head of silver hair. He gently waved his hand, which was forming a mudra in front of his chest, towards Hypnos. Then, with a dragon roar that seemed to resound through the heavens, the black dragon in the sky, which had become increasingly realistic, transformed its originally chaotic black eyes into a black abyss and then charged fiercely towards Hypnos!

He also responded calmly, "Why should I absorb it? The energy of heaven and earth belongs to this world; I can borrow it at will, but can you?"

Groan!

Amidst the domineering dragon roar, the black dragon instantly clashed with Hypnos, whose rage was at its peak, in the air. The clouds dispersed, divine light shone brightly, and thunderous roars that seemed to destroy the heavens and earth resounded continuously!

"How dare you insult me!"

Hypnos felt greatly humiliated by Long Xiaoyao. He, the mighty God of Slaughter, the former strongest second-level god, was now being fought by Long Xiaoyao using a beastly avatar, who even wanted to defeat him?!

However, he misunderstood Long Xiaoyao. The Law of Heaven and Earth, evolved from the Martial Soul Armor, allowed Long Xiaoyao to directly "leverage" the energy of heaven and earth within the [Dragon Lord Domain]. This enabled him to use the energy of heaven and earth in combat at minimal cost. With the continuous replenishment of the energy of heaven and earth, and the fact that he did not convert the energy of heaven and earth for his own use, theoretically, as long as there was no serious disruption in the energy of heaven and earth, Long Xiaoyao's [Law of Heaven and Earth] would have unlimited energy.

The black dragon and the previous giant black divine phantom were both summoned by Long Xiaoyao within the [Dragon Lord Domain] as [Martial Soul Armor]. Their origin was his Martial Soul True Body, and both the combat techniques and the will belonged to Long Xiaoyao himself.

The only slight difference from the normal [Martial Soul Armor] is that while others pilot their true battle armor inside the [Martial Soul Armor], Long Xiaoyao can remotely control the [Martial Soul Armor] from the outside.

Furthermore, unlike before when he could only control his Martial Soul Armor by standing on its head, Long Xiaoyao has now taken this control a step further, transforming it into the Dragon Sovereign Domain. Within this domain, he can freely mobilize the energy of heaven and earth to enhance and control his Martial Soul Armor.

So the black dragon that is currently fighting Hypnos in the air is actually Long Xiaoyao fighting Hypnos. He has no intention of humiliating his opponent. Although from the scene, it looks like Hypnos is being held back by an avatar, while Long Xiaoyao is standing leisurely in place without moving.

But Long Xiaoyao was genuinely taking his opponent seriously. He just fought in a way that was a bit "disrespectful." As the energy of heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of miles was gradually gathering in this direction due to the energy siphon effect, Long Xiaoyao was not idle either. He kept his left hand hidden behind his back, secretly making hand seals to prevent his opponent's old-timer from having any backup plans.

For the gods in the divine realm, who had been closely watching the situation, the ongoing battle between Long Xiaoyao and Hypnos was undoubtedly an eye-opening experience!

As the battle between Long Xiaoyao and Hypnos continued and escalated, Hypnos unleashed a variety of his signature killing techniques, but they were all defended against by the increasingly powerful and refined black dragon.

Later, Hypnos also considered breaking through the black dragon's entanglement to directly attack Long Xiaoyao's main body, but the constantly strengthening solid energy barrier around Long Xiaoyao made it difficult for him to break through in a short time!

"That person's power is too much of a counter to Hypnos." As the divine thoughts left by the gods were continuously awakened, Dai Mubai, along with Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, Ning Rongrong, and the rarely seen Ma Hongjun, met up again in the void outside the Douluo Realm.

Oscar intently watched the battle between Long Xiaoyao and Hypnos projected in the void by the combined divine power of the God of Destruction and the God of Evil. He discovered that Hypnos's heavy sword strikes could not touch the body of the black-robed expert. Even the ten percent reduction in strength that was usually devastating from the God of Slaughter's Domain was immune to!

Calling it immunity is not accurate. Strictly speaking, it should be that the black-robed expert's essence and intent were unified, and his blood and qi remained completely still, which can be considered as resisting the stripping effect of the God of Slaughter Domain with all his might.

No one had ever remained motionless like Long Xiaoyao, guarding his spirit and vital energy, because doing so would allow the God-Slaying Sword to pierce directly into his heart. However, the current situation was that Hypnos's God-Slaying Sword couldn't break through the infinitely regenerative "Heaven and Earth Qi" surrounding Long Xiaoyao, rendering many of Hypnos's abilities unusable.

Oscar, recognizing this, couldn't help but praise: "Many of the abilities of the God of Slaughter Hypros are related to 'selling blood' and 'exchanging blood,' but Long Xiaoyao doesn't give Hypros any chance to exchange blood at all. This makes it easy for Hypros to get weaker and weaker as the fight goes on, while Long Xiaoyao gets stronger and stronger as the fight goes on thanks to his increasingly perfect moves."

In many myths and historical accounts, Hypnos, the god of war, is known for growing stronger with each battle. How could he possibly become weaker with each fight?

But Hypnos just happened to encounter Long Xiaoyao, who wouldn't give him a single drop of blood. It's like Hypnos can exchange his life points for powerful attack power, and he also has a terrifying 'damage life steal' ability, but he can't even scratch Long Xiaoyao!

Whether it was the black dragon that kept absorbing and growing stronger with the energy of heaven and earth, or the hundreds of meters thick protective aura of heaven and earth around Long Xiaoyao, they were all ethereal energies without any concept of flesh and blood!

“However, Long Xiaoyao’s appearance really did keep all the gods in the dark.” As he said this, Oscar’s divine sense intertwined with Dai Mubai’s for a moment, and then separated instantly.

Since the Kunlun Continent was entirely within the vision of the divine realm, Long Xiaoyao's appearance was very abrupt.

At this moment, Ma Hongjun, who had been silent all along, said indifferently and without restraint, "Someone wants to cause trouble for that person on the Kunlun Continent. If the person who goes is strong, the other party's mole will hide and wait for the right time to explode. If the person who goes is weak, it will explode instantly, causing that person unbearable pain and disrupting their state of mind. If I'm not mistaken, that soul beast girl named Jinlin was actually sent by that person to clear mines."

“Hongjun.” Dai Mubai, Oscar and the others were somewhat surprised to see Ma Hongjun, who hadn’t been “online” much since his last appearance, suddenly appear.

Ma Hongjun ignored them and, under the curious gazes of Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, continued indifferently, "The two thousand men sent by Xingdou, plus that golden scale, and that soul tool."

When Ma Hongjun mentioned "that soul tool," he paused slightly, a subtle change that went unnoticed by Oscar and the others around him. He then continued as usual:

"It's just enough to deal with that native force that temporarily possesses a level 99 Limit Douluo. It's just the right amount to solve the problem without making it too troublesome for anyone. We can now assume that the Soul Master army and the Soul Beast girl are bait. But that person wouldn't actually use them as bait, so the one with the weakest presence, Long Xiaoyao, is hiding right under the nose of the God Realm inside that Soul Guidance Device called the Damocles Space-based Satellite. He's entering the battlefield directly from outer space as a Soul Guidance Device projectile."

Ma Hongjun's analysis is correct. If he knew that Chen Fu had once thought of building a cannon to send Long Xiaoyao into space, then Chen Fu's "open card" approach would be even more bizarre.

Although...but.

Under the watchful eyes of Oscar and the other three, Ma Hongjun looked up at the scene in the sky, which showed that Hypnos realized something was wrong and retreated into the depths of the Kunlun Continent, while Long Xiaoyao's black dragon turned around and swallowed Long Xiaoyao and the surrounding天地罡气 in one gulp, and then chased after Hypnos.

A complex expression flashed in her fiery red eyes, and she sighed quietly:

"He's not perfect either; that golden scale has become his weakness."

And weaknesses are something no one wants to exist.

So that person ultimately hesitated.

Yes, in Ma Hongjun's deeply felt opinion, the person who used that soul beast girl as bait hesitated in the end.

Otherwise, Long Xiaoyao could have simply not appeared, or even appeared later by traveling normally.

However, in the end, without the notice of the gods, Long Xiaoyao drifted in the near-Earth orbit outside Douluo Star for nearly a month and then appeared in time to save the day as a soul tool cannonball.

Ma Hongjun didn't believe that Long Xiaoyao would climb up to that Damocles space satellite on his own initiative; it must have been the result of someone's orders.

"Of course, this is just my personal opinion, so please don't take it too seriously."

Ma Hongjun only mentioned it briefly, and then didn't say anything more.

"Hmm, isn't your idea a bit too far-fetched? Perhaps this is Chen Fu's plan? After all, judging from the current development of events, the auspicious beast is the cicada, and Long Xiaoyao is the oriole?" Ning Rongrong was somewhat unwilling to accept Ma Hongjun's personal interpretation, because it seemed that Chen Fu's purpose was just that.

"Yes, judging from the current results, it seems that things should have developed this way, but haven't you realized it yet?" Ma Hongjun glanced at his former partners around him and said calmly, "Isn't everything that Chen Fu has done the way we take it for granted? But what is the reality? He just keeps throwing out 'materials,' and these 'materials' produce different results at different times and places. What we see is often just what he wants to give us, and what we think we are being clever and want to see."

"Hongjun Ni" Dai Mubai and Oscar were both stunned. Where did their silly little fat boy go?

Ning Rongrong, however, was much more direct. She looked at Ma Hongjun with a surprised expression and asked, "How did you suddenly become so smart? Tell me, are you someone else in disguise? Where is the real Hongjun??"

Ma Hongjun meant that everything Chen Fu did could not be viewed from the perspective of process and result, because that was just one interpretation among a multitude of 'materials'.

Take the saying, "Raising pigs makes them grow as big as mountains, but rats die one by one; brewing wine makes every vat good, and making vinegar makes every jar sour," as an example. The same words can be seen as the same 'material,' but they can present completely opposite meanings under different interpretations.

That's why Ning Rongrong was surprised that Ma Hongjun had been sitting in meditation on Phoenix Volcano for thousands of years and had now achieved "enlightenment on Phoenix Volcano".
