Chapter 314 crippled two great god-kings

After realizing this, the Golden Dragon King's face darkened.

He was clearly in a bad mood at the moment, and his face was full of displeasure.

After listening to the Golden Dragon King's analysis, Tang San did not immediately respond.

Instead, he glanced at the two god-kings beside him first.

The benevolent god-king, Flame, had his hands hanging limply at his sides, his fingers trembling.

She had stomped a shallow hole in the ground beneath her feet, a result of the force she had used to support herself.

The evil god-king Ji Dong knelt on the ground.

Both of them were losing energy and had very little strength left.

Tang San seemed to realize something.

Before the Death and Annihilation Return Journey even began, they were the first two God-Kings to be ambushed by Lu Ren.

That time, Lu Ren deceived them, not only severely injuring them but also taking away all the energy from their fusion technique.

If Tang San and his group hadn't reacted quickly and arrived at top speed to provide support, they might have given Lu Ren the opportunity to kill them completely.

Now, in order to suppress the Golden Dragon King, they followed him and used the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms.

In other words—

The current Lieyan and Jidong have very little fighting power left.

Tang San's face gradually darkened.

He got it.

Lu Ren achieved his goal.

Using the Golden Dragon King, they dragged things out for five days and five nights, and now they've drained the power of the two most capable of coordinating their fusion techniques among the five great god-kings.

Before Lu Ren could even make a move, Tang San's side had already lost two God-King level combatants.

Tang San gritted his teeth, his clenched hand tightening uncontrollably, his fingers digging into his palm, and faint blood slowly trickled out of his palm.

Just then, the Golden Dragon King spoke again: "Are you just going to let these little golden insects follow you around like this?"

He looked down and examined them one by one.

Each god-king was accompanied by a pale white snake.

The little creatures stayed quietly, their bodies short and seemingly harmless.

The Golden Dragon King looked at them with an unfriendly expression: "I suspect these are spies that Lu Ren deliberately planted."

"It's specifically designed to monitor us and wage an information war against us."

"We are currently at a significant disadvantage because we know absolutely nothing about Lu Ren. Yet Lu Ren seems to know everything about us."

Tang San's face showed a hint of helplessness: "We know."

"But they dared not make a move."

"I wonder what price we'll pay for killing these defenseless little golden bugs."

The Golden Dragon King laughed heartily upon hearing this.

He grabbed the little golden beetle that was following him.

The little golden worm didn't even have a chance to struggle in his palm; he grabbed it and refined it in an instant.

"What price could there be?"

The Golden Dragon King said arrogantly and domineeringly.

He suddenly crushed the little golden worm in his hand into a bloody mist.

"I can crush them if I want—"

Before he could finish speaking, the Golden Dragon King spat out a jet of blood.

In the blink of an eye, the Golden Dragon King's aura weakened again, his back bent as if he had been hit from behind, and he almost stumbled and fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, another small golden beetle appeared beside him.

That one is exactly the same as the previous one, even the way it's coiled up is the same.

It said, "In the cycle of death and destruction, the little golden beetle acts as the referee."

"Attacking a referee is considered a violation. The first offense will result in a warning, the second offense in a penalty, and the third offense will result in immediate disqualification."

"What???"

The gods were all greatly surprised upon hearing this.

To simply eliminate them?

Is this really that outrageous?

Tang San was even more startled.

Along the way, he suppressed the urge to kill the little golden worm several times.

Now that he knew the outcome of his actions, a sense of lingering fear rose in his heart.

Thankfully, I managed to hold back.

The Golden Dragon King clutched his chest and cursed, "What a joke!"

"Where do you get the power to punish us directly? And even the ability to wipe us out?"

"Aren't we all god-king level figures here? Can you do it?"

"If you're really that powerful, would you need Lu Ren to take action?"

"Without Lu Ren even lifting a finger, wouldn't you have killed all six of us?"

After saying that, the Golden Dragon King tried to crush the little golden worm again.

But the little golden beetle didn't even want to hide. It just stretched out its body, revealing a corner of the rolled-up list: "The little golden beetle is here to help every participant in the Death Return Tour. It is a teammate of yours and also serves as a referee. The points obtained after each battle need to be counted. It is also responsible for monitoring and ensuring that all the rules of the Death Return Tour are in effect."

"Furthermore, the little golden beetle itself has no fighting ability and poses no threat to you."

"In addition, each deity, after joining the Death Return Tour, makes a deal with its own little golden beetle that has a binding effect."

"The binding effect is enormous."

Even the King of Gods cannot escape the bondage.

The Golden Dragon King stopped raising his hand halfway.

He looked puzzled. "When did I make any commitments to you?"

"Yes, the moment you agree to participate in the Death Return Tour."

The little golden beetle said with absolute certainty.

"However, one of the conditions for binding the terms of the transaction is that you forget these binding terms."

"Grass!"

The Golden Dragon King cursed.

"You are robbers and bandits!"

"Who knows what kind of obligations we made with you when we first participated in the Death Annihilation Journey?"

"Furthermore, what you're doing is completely unreasonable! A loan? Are you using our lives to profit from? Even getting something for nothing isn't this ruthless!"

"With this kind of lending method, your credit score would have been negative long ago!"

The more the Golden Dragon King spoke, the angrier he became, his anger rising rapidly. He clenched his raised hand into a fist, making a cracking sound.

In the end, the Golden Dragon King did not gamble on whether what the other party said was true or false.

He silently lowered his clenched fist.

Tang San, standing nearby, advised, "Let it go, just leave it at that. Don't be angry, it's not worth it."

"It's because we're at a disadvantage."

"It's only natural that there are traps everywhere under Lu Ren's Death Annihilation Return Barrier."

"Since we can't solve the problem of the little gold bugs, let's not talk about it anymore."

The Golden Dragon King's expression finally softened.

Then, the benevolent god-king Lieyan spoke first: "Tang San."

"As you know, the current situation is very dire. Ji Dong and I are in extremely bad shape, and we can no longer continue fighting."

"Our current condition is far too poor. We could probably be defeated by even an ordinary level one god. How can we possibly fight Lu Ren alongside you in this state?"

The benevolent god-king, Blazing Flame, sighed: "Ji Dong and I are exhausted. That move, combined with the Three Realms Judgment Sword you used, completely used up our strength."

"So I thought, rather than the two of us being completely useless here, we should give all the strength we have left to one person."

Ji Dong also stood up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said in a deep voice, "So far, the most likely person to defeat Lu Ren is you."

"You are the hope of all of us."

"Therefore, both Lieyan and I are willing to give you our divine king essence."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at the God of Destruction.

"destroy."

"I advise you to return the central hub of the God Realm to Tang San."

"Whether in terms of strength or experience, Tang San's use of the God Realm's core is far superior to yours."

"In order to defeat Lu Ren, you should stop clinging to that little bit of power."

The God of Destruction stood there, silent for a long time.

In the end, the God of Destruction, somewhat unwilling, said: "————Fine."

He raised his hand, and the Divine Realm Central Hub, which was suspended above his palm, lit up briefly before slowly drifting toward Tang San.

Tang San reached out and caught it.

The central hub of the God Realm has returned to Tang San's control.

Tang San stood there, looking at the central hub of the God Realm, and remained silent for a long time.

He had always wanted to reclaim the central authority of the divine realm.

I've considered many ways to get it back, but none of them are easy.

I never expected that it would be obtained so easily in this way.

At this moment, Destruction sneered: "Are you satisfied now?"

"I know you've done something shady in the central authority of the divine realm."

"You can take it back anytime you want."

"You could even severely injure me, right?"

Tang San looked up at him.

Faced with the question of destruction, he nodded: "That's right."

"I did tamper with it."

Tang San did not explain.

It didn't say that it wasn't aimed at the current situation.

Because it's no use saying it.

The suspicion and distrust between the two of them could not be filled in just a few words.

Tang San then put away the central hub of the God Realm and turned to look at Lie Yan and Ji Dong.

The price to pay is undoubtedly heavy.

The situation of these two god-kings is no longer optimistic.

Tang San hesitated, unsure if what he was doing was the right thing to do.

If, during their final battle with Lu Ren, these two God-Kings have enough time to recover their strength and are able to defeat Lu...

Will Ren use their fusion technique?

In this way, the chances of winning the final battle will definitely be much higher.

But if he truly accepts the power of the two great god-kings' divine origin, it means that the last bit of power that good and evil have left has been handed over to him.

Don't blame me for talking too much.

The Golden Dragon King seemed to have seen through Tang San's intentions and couldn't help but speak up.

"Let me remind you."

"The time for Lu Ren's successful promotion is fast approaching."

"It took you five whole days and five nights."

"If you continue to delay and Lu Ren successfully advances, then my suggestion is that we should stop fighting him."

"Just surrender to him and become his underling, or slit your own throat and die on the spot."

He said this with an extremely somber expression.

Because the Golden Dragon King recalled that a few days ago, he had transformed into a irrational Golden Dragon King capable of destroying the very ends of the universe.

It can unleash its destructive power to the fullest extent, making its combat strength undoubtedly terrifying.

Even so, Lu Ren still handled Tang San with ease when facing him in his completely irrational state, and after the fight, he was able to conveniently redirect that hatred onto Tang San.

Based on this one battle alone, the Golden Dragon King concluded that Lu Ren was absolutely the strongest opponent he had ever encountered.

There are probably only two ways to reliably defeat such an opponent.

First, the fusion technique of the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction severely injured Lu Ren.

The second reason is that the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King reunited as one, becoming the Dragon God once again, and used the power of the Dragon God to suppress the other.

Tang San understood the current situation and knew that they couldn't waste any more time.

The longer they drag this out, the more successful Lu Ren's delaying tactics will be.

"OK."

Tang San agreed.

"I accept—we must begin immediately. Let me receive the divine power of both of you, and then—I will end Lu Ren!"
