Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 403. Golden Dragon King: I, the Golden Dragon King, am invincible! Exoskeleton! Activate!

"You felt it, didn't you?!" the God of Destruction asked.

"Of course!" King Tang nodded, his expression grave. "That thing has come out; we must deal with it properly, otherwise... the God Realm will be in grave danger!"

The God of Destruction nodded to the God King Tang, then freed one hand and beckoned to Huanhua, signaling her to be quiet.

A fleeting look of smugness crossed Huanhua's eyes. She quietly rose and went to the side of the God of Destruction and the God King Tang, while simultaneously using her divine power to construct a barrier that isolated the inside from the outside.

Seeing Huanhua come to his side, the God of Destruction suddenly grabbed her hand and placed a small, exquisite object into her palm.

Looking down, Huanhua was surprised to see a small crystal in her palm.

It was an eight-pointed star, with endless purplish-black clouds violently swirling inside, seemingly containing extremely profound destructive power.

This is one of the five seeds that appeared when the divine realm was created, the Seed of Destruction.

"Emotions, from now on, you'll take my place. A formidable enemy has arrived outside, and I must go to meet them. You need to hold things steady. The spacetime turbulence is currently stable; you just need to continue maintaining your divine power output and control, and stabilizing the situation shouldn't be a problem. Once I've dealt with the enemy outside, I'll come back and relieve you immediately."

As the God of Destruction spoke, he looked at Tang Shenwang. Left with no other choice, Tang Shenwang had to entrust his Asura Seed to Xiao Wu for safekeeping.

As soon as the golden light shield conjured by the Divine Realm Committee appeared, the God of Destruction and the Tang God King heard the deafening dragon roar.

With a sharp look in his eyes, the God of Destruction transformed into a streak of purple lightning, traveling thousands of miles in an instant.

The next moment, he was already blocking the way in front of that huge golden figure.

Even though he had already guessed who the visitor was, his pupils still contracted slightly when he actually saw the person in front of him.

What powerful energy and vitality! As a supreme god, the physical abilities of the God of Destruction are beyond doubt.

However, when he hovered in front of the Golden Dragon King, he was still shocked by the power of blood and qi emanating from the Golden Dragon King. He was absolutely certain that he was inferior to the Golden Dragon King in terms of physical ability.

What a powerful Golden Dragon King!

No wonder it still managed to break out of the forbidden land.

When the Golden Dragon King saw the God of Destruction and Tang San, his ruby-like eyes flashed with a fierce light. He first looked at the God of Destruction for a while, and then glared at Tang San.

He knew very well that although the red deity's form had changed, its aura remained the same!

It's him, it's definitely him.

Back then, it was he who slashed with his sword, making himself a part of his body.

The power of that sword strike was so great that it severed even the soul and consciousness.

The Dragon God was transformed into the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King, becoming two independent individuals in terms of body, mind, and even abilities.

Compared to the Dragon God at his peak, who could challenge the five supreme gods single-handedly, the difference is far, far greater.

Upon seeing the God of Destruction, the Golden Dragon King felt only disgust.

However, when facing Tang San, the Golden Dragon King's first reaction was extreme anger, followed by extreme fear.

The Golden Dragon King roared to the sky, and his massive body suddenly accelerated. He was thousands of feet long and flew through the air like a giant golden meteor, heading straight for Tang San.

Tang San's expression hardened, and the blood-red Shura Sword soared into the sky. With a swift movement, he merged into the blood-red giant sword.

The Asura Sword, infused with his divine power, swiftly transformed into a massive, blood-red sword tens of feet long, which appeared out of nowhere and slashed straight at the Golden Dragon King.

The unity of body and sword is a powerful ability of the Asura God.

However, Tang San did not use the Asura Blood Sword at this time.

It's clear that he didn't not want to, but rather that he was unable to make up for it.

From the moment the seal was broken, he has been fighting non-stop.

Even after the battle, there was simply no time to recover his divine power. Of course, as the supreme god, his divine power recovery speed was far faster than that of most other gods.

However, when he expends a great deal of energy, the amount he needs to recover is also enormous.

Compared to the God of Destruction, who can accelerate his recovery with the help of the divine realm's central hub, his current condition is not even 40% of his peak.

Facing the Golden Dragon King with only 40% of his strength, he was naturally at a disadvantage.

The Golden Dragon King didn't care about any of that; he was the type to never let someone get away with something once he gained power.

Its massive body crashed violently into the Asura Blood Sword. The longest golden spike on its hard head emitted a powerful golden light. Starting from the dragon's tail, all the spikes shone brightly, and then the golden light, like waves, stretched from the dragon's tail to the top of its head before finally colliding with the Asura Blood Sword.

With a crisp clang, the Asura Blood Sword, now one with its master, rebounded and transformed into a streak of blood-red light in the air, flying at least a hundred miles away.

The Golden Dragon King merely swayed its body in the air, and a small notch appeared on its single horn.

Slightly stunned, the Golden Dragon King's ruby-like eyes instantly filled with excitement. This new Asura God was weaker, far, far weaker than the original Asura God!

The Golden Dragon King's physical abilities are not only reflected in combat, but also in recovery.

The nick on the sharp corner was being repaired at an astonishing speed.

At the same time, its massive body accelerated again with the flapping of its dragon wings, transforming into a streak of light and instantly catching up with Tang San, who had transformed into the Asura Sword.

With a flick of its long tail, the dragon's tail, resembling a mace, slammed fiercely into the Asura Sword.

Instantly, the Asura Sword flew up again.

The Golden Dragon King was incredibly fast and possessed astonishing strength.

The God of Destruction slowly flew in from the side, gazing solemnly at the golden behemoth, and sighed, "This guy is much stronger than we thought!"

"This guy is actually stronger than before he was sealed away. For so many years as a dragon cocoon, he's been absorbing divine power from the God Realm," Tang Shenwang said, panting heavily.

"Its overall strength is equivalent to that of a supreme god, but if you want to defeat it, even two supreme gods might not be able to do it."

"So what! Right now, there are only two of us supreme gods in the God Realm. Whether we want to go or not, we have to go!" The God of Destruction laughed loudly, raised the Scepter of Destruction, and unleashed a barrage of destructive divine lightning at the Golden Dragon King!

This move successfully diverted the Golden Dragon King's attention from Tang Shenwang and bought Tang San a precious moment to catch his breath.

Regardless of whether he could withstand the Golden Dragon King, he first had to lure the Golden Dragon King away so that it wouldn't affect the Divine Realm Committee.

Otherwise, it would be a disaster for the divine realm.

The God of Destruction flew ahead at breakneck speed, while the Golden Dragon King roared angrily as he chased after him.

As they chased after them, Tang Shenwang, having recovered his strength, followed behind them and gave Jinlongwang a few blows.

Even though he was being pulled around repeatedly, the Golden Dragon King still... kept chasing him from both ends with great interest.

It's clear that this thing's intelligence... isn't very high.

"Boom!"

The game of chasing each other had only been going on for a short while when the divine realm trembled violently again, and even the sky darkened in an instant.

The God of Destruction felt a chill run down his spine as the pressure from the spatial turbulence intensified.

On the side of the Divine Realm Committee, can Huanhua hold out?

With the God of Destruction no longer holding them back, the pressure on King Tang suddenly increased.

Affected by the spacetime turbulence, the Asura Sword, which had become one with the body, also paused for a moment.

The Golden Dragon King was incredibly fast; he caught up with him from behind in the brief moment the man paused.

He opened his mouth wide and bit down on the Asura Sword.

Those sharp dragon teeth emitted a chilling light. Although one bite might not necessarily damage the Asura Sword, it would be difficult for it to break free.

At the critical moment, a blood-red pattern suddenly appeared on the Asura Sword that Tang San had transformed into.

Immediately afterwards, the Asura Sword twisted sharply and accelerated abruptly, almost in the blink of an eye, it passed between the Golden Dragon King's teeth, changed direction, and flew straight.

This time, he actually chose the God Realm Committee.

The Golden Dragon King roared in resentment and gave chase. With each flap of its enormous dragon wings, its massive body seemed to teleport, propelling it forward in an instant.

"Golden Dragon King, are you aware that the Divine Realm is facing a temporal turbulence? Once the Divine Realm's protective barrier is breached, and the temporal turbulence engulfs it, you may not fare well either."

Forced into a desperate escape, Tang San's angry voice rang out.

The Golden Dragon King's chilling voice then reverberated throughout the entire space.

"Of course I knew about the arrival of the spacetime turbulence, even much earlier than you did. With my extraordinary senses, I discovered it long ago. What does the destruction of the God Realm have to do with me? It's better that it's destroyed. You despicable, self-righteous gods, how dare you seal me away for so many years!"

"This time, I will help this spacetime turbulence to completely destroy this divine realm, and see how you will survive. With my physical strength, even spacetime turbulence cannot harm me for a while, so I can naturally find another space to survive."

"Moreover, without your divine realm, there will naturally be no more of those annoying divine hunters. At that time, even if I travel to the human world on various planets, no one will be able to stop me. Once I find my other half, the Dragon God of yesteryear will return."

After forcing Yu Fan to talk, much like nine out of ten villains, the Golden Dragon King became so engrossed in his own plan that he slowed down his pursuit of Tang San.

Unable to catch up with Tang San, he simply followed behind him, engaging in verbal sparring.

"Stop struggling, God of Asura, you have no chance. Right now, three of the five supreme gods are not in the God Realm, and the turbulent currents of the God Realm pose no threat to me. Now, in the entire God Realm, only you and the God of Destruction can barely resist me."

"The Divine Realm Committee is approaching. Do you still expect it to protect you? I saw it long ago. The gods in your divine realm are resisting the temporal turbulence. I didn't directly break the barrier; I just wanted you to consume more of the temporal turbulence so that I could be safer."

"Consuming divine power? That coincides with my plan. In that case, let you be arrogant for a while longer! As for this... the return of the Dragon God!"

Qian Lingyun, who had been keeping a safe distance from the Golden Dragon King, listened to the Golden Dragon King's arrogant words and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips.

The Golden Dragon King was obsessed with making the gods expend more of their divine power, and wasn't she doing the same thing?

After the Golden Dragon King and Tang San fight to the death, it will be her chance to reap the benefits!

As for the Dragon God's return! Ha! The Dragon God might return, but it's definitely not up to the Golden Dragon King to decide.

If it had broken free of the seal and escaped the realm of gods, she might not have been able to do anything to it, but... blinded by revenge and anger, it chose to take direct revenge.

And you think you're so clever by revealing your whole plan... well, don't blame yourself for your bad luck!

Thinking about it, Qian Lingyun turned around and walked into the dense forest behind her. Deep in the forest, within the barrier, was her most precious little princess!

In the very center of the woodland…

An elderly man in a gray robe with white hair is performing a special operation on a blonde girl who is lying on an operating table, next to a bunch of rather bizarre punk-style machines.

"Teacher! How is it?" Qian Lingyun nodded to the old man and quietly observed the girl on the operating table.

"As expected of your daughter, her affinity for metal is incredibly high!" Electrolux glanced at Qian Lingyun and operated the robotic arm on the operating table to slowly lower a flat mechanical spine.

On each side of the mechanical spine is a mechanical arm that is almost identical to a normal arm.

"I never expected her to ask to have this installed. I was originally planning to use it myself!" Qian Lingyun sighed, rubbing her eyes helplessly. "I shouldn't have let her run into your lab every day when she was little. Now look what's happened, she wants to install everything on herself..."

"Tch! Adding things to your body is much better than disassembling and modifying yourself!"

Upon hearing Qian Lingyun speak ill of his grand-disciple, Electrolux's white eyebrows twitched violently, and he rolled his eyes at Qian Lingyun with considerable displeasure.

Qian Lingyun nodded, both amused and exasperated, and clicked her tongue in amazement, saying, "Tsk tsk tsk! Grandparents really do love their grandchildren more! I never got this kind of treatment back then!"

"That's because Rou'er has a very respectful attitude towards my inventions, unlike you, who treats my masterpieces as... 'xx tools'!" Electrolux said irritably, flipping the switch and watching the metal spine slowly descend.

"Pfft!"

The little one on the operating table chuckled, turned to look at his mother, and teased, "So, Mom, you were playing this big game!"

"Shut up! Kids shouldn't ask so many questions!"

Enraged, Qian Lingyun shoved Qian Rou'er's face back down.

Click!

The metal spine was aligned and accurately attached to Qian Rou'er's smooth back.

"How are you feeling?" Electrolux asked with concern.

"It's a bit cold!" Qian Rou'er answered honestly.

bass!

After a few muffled thuds, golden needles emerged from the silver metal vertebrae and were injected one after another into Qian Rou'er's spine, entering the spinal cord gray matter.

As the last needle entered Qian Rou'er's spine, the ends of the two mechanical arms were attached to her shoulder blades.

"It's a little numb!" Qian Rou'er muttered softly.

But judging from the twitching corners of her eyes and the bulging veins on her forehead, it seems that it's not just a little bit of numbness!

"I've done this before, you know whether it's numb or painful!" Qian Lingyun sat on the edge of the operating table, comforting her good daughter who was trying to remain calm.
