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

Chapter 404, 497498. The Divine Sword Slays the Golden Dragon, Reaps the Fruits of Tang San's Victory—So Delicious!

"Asura God, judging from your appearance... are you planning to perish together with the Divine Realm Committee?"

"Alright, alright! Then I'll grant your wish."

"But you can rest assured, I will not attack your Divine Realm Committee now. I will make sure that all the gods in your Divine Realm Committee see my presence."

"Just think about it, if they panic, won't their resistance to the spacetime turbulence weaken? At that point, I can watch you despicable gods be destroyed one by one by the spacetime turbulence in your panic. That would be absolutely wonderful!"

"Hahahaha!"

The Golden Dragon King's mocking words and arrogant laughter seemed to cause the Asura Sword to tremble slightly.

The Golden Dragon King's eyesight was astonishing; he could see the changes on the Asura Sword at a glance.

As the massive dragon's mouth twitched slightly, a hint of disdain emanated from the Golden Dragon King.

Sure enough, this new generation of Supreme Gods is quite different from the first generation of Supreme Gods!

This new Asura God doesn't seem very impressive. Compared to the old God of Destruction, he's far inferior.

What a pity! This spacetime turbulence came a little too early.

Otherwise, he could simply sit back and watch these gods fight amongst themselves, and the divine realm might just be destroyed by them.

In the Forbidden Land of Gods, the battle between Tang San and the God of Destruction was entirely within its perception; it witnessed the entire process of the battle.

In its view, Tang San's combat prowess, displayed from beginning to end, was far inferior to that of the God of Asura from back then.

And the difference is... quite significant.

After all, the God of Asura back then would never have been beaten to such a state by the God of Destruction!

Now, through their battles, it has become even more certain of this.

The Divine Realm Committee is almost here. In the distance, around the majestic golden building, numerous deities are gathered, and beams of golden light continue to converge towards the Divine Realm Committee.

Ignoring the attacks from Tang San and the God of Destruction, the Golden Dragon King spread his enormous wings and hovered outside the protective barrier of the God Realm Committee. His eyes turned slightly cold, and deafening dragon roars rang out from his mouth.

The divine power shield can isolate external spacetime turbulence, but it has little effect on blocking sound.

The gods, who were fully activating their divine power, were immediately awakened by the commotion.

Just as the Golden Dragon King had said, when the gods saw the Golden Dragon King, who was enormous and whose entire body radiated a powerful golden light...

In an instant, chaos erupted around the Divine Realm Committee.

"This...? This is the Golden Dragon King?"

Questions and exclamations rose and fell in waves.

Everyone knows what the appearance of the Golden Dragon King at this time means for the entire divine realm.

Especially for some veteran deities who experienced the chaos caused by the mythical beasts, they have a very deep memory of the story of the Dragon God!

"Boom!"

A loud noise was heard, but it was not caused by the Golden Dragon King; rather, it came from the spatial turbulence outside.

The spacetime turbulence continued to intensify, and there was no sign of the intensification trend weakening.

Within that gray aura, streaks of gray lightning flashed continuously, casting the divine realm in a flickering light.

"Hahahaha! You foolish gods, stop staring at me! Hurry up and do your best to resist the spacetime turbulence. Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry at all, I can wait."

"It's all very casual," said the Golden Dragon King.

Of course it wasn't in a hurry. Watching the gods of the divine realm fight against the spacetime turbulence, it felt incredibly happy.

This mutually destructive situation is exactly what it wants to see.

It was not afraid at all that the gods would turn against it at this time, partly because it was quite confident in its own strength.

More importantly, faced with the turbulent flow of time and space, these deities had no other choice.

If we give up fighting against the spacetime turbulence now, the divine realm will be destroyed immediately.

Therefore, even though they knew their plan was to watch from the sidelines, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with the spacetime turbulence in outer space.

The Golden Dragon King thought he was really smart, so smart that even he himself had to admire himself.

The rumbling sounds continued to echo, and the light emanating from the Divine Realm Committee seemed to have intensified, clearly indicating that the gods were beginning to exert their power again.

The Golden Dragon King spread his arms and flew around the protective shield of the Divine Realm Committee, carefully observing the gods' fear and gnashing of teeth.

The smugness in its ruby-like eyes became even more pronounced.

"This is absolutely wonderful. Keep trying to survive, you foolish gods."

As he spoke, the Golden Dragon King burst into laughter, until the God of Destruction and Tang San entered the central hub of the God Realm at the same time.

"Oh! You guys went in too!?" The Golden Dragon King looked down at the God of Destruction and Tang San, and said sarcastically, "Well, without you guys, they probably wouldn't have lasted much longer!"

"Use that move!" The God of Destruction and Tang San exchanged a glance, and the two aged, cunning gods simultaneously curled the corners of their mouths.

Suddenly, two clusters of flames appeared silently on either side of the Divine Realm Committee.

When these two flames first appeared, they were inconspicuous. One was red and the other was blue. They looked like just two simple and plain flames.

However, the two clusters of flames changed color almost instantly, one turning black and the other white.

In an instant, time and space around the entire Divine Realm Committee seemed to freeze for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, the two clusters of flames suddenly elongated, transforming into two sharp swords.

A melodious female voice rang out, "The highest good is like water!"

A deep male voice rang out, "Evil! Aura! Awe-inspiring!"

Suddenly, a primordial aura, seemingly originating from the primordial chaos, rose up between heaven and earth, turning the sky white and the earth black.

The black and white swords on either side of the Divine Realm Committee instantly transformed into two streaks of light, soaring into the sky and shooting towards the Golden Dragon King, their divine swords swelling in the wind.

Moreover, at the top of the Divine Realm Committee, a blood-red light and a purple light also broke through the air and merged with the black and white twin swords. The three divine swords and the purple light transformed into four beams of intense light, completely enveloping the Golden Dragon King.

An unprecedented fear gripped the Golden Dragon King's heart. Faced with all this, it felt as if all the dragon scales on its body were trembling, as if its body was about to be torn apart by them. The feeling of death suddenly descended upon it.

"Roar, impossible—" it roared furiously, flapping its wings, trying its best to escape.

But at this moment, the entire God Realm seemed to be under the control of the laws of that dazzling sword light, so how could it possibly escape!

"How was it? The Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms didn't taste good, did it?" The God of Destruction said in his cold voice as he regained control of the central authority of the divine realm.

Yes, the white divine sword was transformed from the benevolent god of righteousness, while the black divine sword was controlled by the evil god of malevolence.

In addition, there's the Asura God's Blood Sword, which controls order.

The three swords combined to form a single entity, which nearly controlled all the laws of the entire divine realm.

Even the Dragon God in his prime would have had to dodge such a sword strike.

Not to mention the Golden Dragon King, who only possesses the physical strength of the Dragon God.

The sword before us is called the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms, representing the world of good, the world of evil, and the world of Asura.

Back then, after the Dragon God caused a great calamity to the God Realm, the five God Kings of the God Realm, after much painful reflection, realized that they lacked offensive means. That's why they gathered together and researched and developed the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms.

If the Goddess of Life were here, she could even amplify the life force within the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms.

Therefore, although the sword strike before us is incomplete, its power is not lacking.

"Is it a specially preserved divine power projection? Or is it a one-time use?!" Huanhua stared at the two almost transparent hazy light and shadow figures beside the God of Destruction, and then fixed her gaze on the Golden Dragon King.

Black, white, purple, and red light condensed together in the air, transforming into a giant sword of four colors that appeared out of nowhere!

The Golden Dragon King wanted to escape, but it couldn't even muster the will to fight back. It was simply an absolute suppression of power and the absolute suppression of the laws!

The Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms was specifically designed to deal with the Golden Dragon King.

Before the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms, it wouldn't even have the chance to transform back into a dragon cocoon.

At this moment, the Golden Dragon King desperately flapped its wings and tried to escape, but its body seemed to be pulled by something, and it was still being gradually chased by the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms.

Fortunately, the gods of good and evil were merely projections of divine power, and there was no goddess of life assisting them.

Otherwise, the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms could have killed it directly.

It's important to understand that the combined power of the five God-Kings is such that they could withstand the temporal turbulence for a considerable period of time!

"Roar—" The Golden Dragon King finally understood, but it was too late.

Suddenly, an unprecedentedly fierce aura flashed in its ruby-like eyes, and abruptly, it turned around and rushed straight towards the direction of the Divine Realm Committee.

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, it finally became wise for once, or rather, when it had no way to escape, the thought of mutual destruction made it wise.

In desperation, the Golden Dragon King planned to attack the protective shield of the Divine Realm Committee, shatter it, and break the committee's control over the power of the divine realm.

As the central authority of the divine realm, the Divine Realm Committee is protected by the laws, but it is currently at a critical juncture in dealing with the temporal and spatial turbulence, so it cannot remain as stable as it usually is.

A bright golden flame rose from the Golden Dragon King's entire body. As a divine beast, it also possessed abilities similar to those of the gods.

When it turned around and sensed that the murderous intent behind it had not diminished but increased, it knew that its last chance to escape was gone.

Since that's the case, then let's perish together! The enormous golden figure rapidly shrank in the air, and as its body shrank, its speed increased, making it impossible for the Three Realms Judgment Sword, which was being fully activated behind it, to catch up with it immediately.

The Divine Realm Committee is just around the corner.

"Die! Die, all of you! Die!" the Golden Dragon King roared madly, his furious dragon roars shaking the entire divine realm.

However, at that very moment, the hilt of the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms suddenly emitted black, white, red, and purple light, propelling the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms to suddenly burst forth, its speed increasing dramatically in an instant.

In almost a flash, they were behind the Golden Dragon King.

"Pfft—" Although the Golden Dragon King had shrunk, its still enormous body suddenly stopped in mid-air and froze in mid-air.

The next instant, black, white, red, and purple light burst forth from the wound on its back, and its massive body began to disintegrate amidst violent tremors.

At this moment, he was already very close to the protective barrier of the God Realm Committee.

"roar--"

The Golden Dragon King suddenly let out a final roar. Only an hour had passed since it broke free from its seal, and its life was about to end under the sword of judgment of the Three Realms.

It was unwilling to accept this!

I'm so unwilling to accept this!

Suddenly, it opened its mouth wide, and a ball of golden light spewed out. The instant the golden light left its body, its ruby-like eyes dimmed, but even with dimmed eyes, they remained ferocious, filled with a vengeful pleasure.

"After waiting for so long, it's finally here!"

Just before the golden light was about to hit the Divine Realm Committee, countless thick vines pierced through the solid ground, transforming into a thick shield that blocked it.

A hand suddenly emerged from the center of the vine shield and grasped the golden light in its grasp.

Tang San, with his superior visual abilities, clearly saw that the hand was holding a brilliant golden crystal.

It is about the size of a fist, and the crystal is rhomboid in shape, with raised edges at the intersections, just like the scales of the Golden Dragon King himself.

However, it contains an extremely terrifying and immense divine power.

"That's a divine core!"

The God of Destruction spoke.

Just as gods possess divine souls and consciousness, the core of a divine beast is its divine core.

However, since that great battle, almost all the surviving divine beasts have been stripped of the possibility of possessing a divine core by the Divine Realm Committee.

This is what prevented them from continuing to grow. But the Golden Dragon King's divine core has always been there!

Although it was only a part of the original Dragon God, it was also the core of its power as the Golden Dragon King.

"Gentlemen, it's been a long time. It seems I've missed a lot!" Qian Lingyun leaped down from the top of the vine shield and landed in front of the gods.

"Qian Lingyun, this is a critical moment for the survival of the God Realm. As a first-level deity, why have you only come out now? What are your intentions?" Tang Shenwang glared at Qian Lingyun, dissatisfied. "Didn't you hear the announcement just now?"

"Oh dear, what are you saying?" Qian Lingyun turned slightly to the side, resting her chin on her left hand and pointing to her bare forehead with her right, explaining in a serious tone:

"I was 'just' passing on my divine position, so it's normal to be late! It just so happens that I'm late!"

"Passed on the divine position? Is it really just a coincidence?!" Tang Shenwang frowned, questioning with displeasure, "And who did you pass on your divine position to? What about the new Rakshasa God?!"

"Tsk! You're meddling in everything, even my divine inheritance? You're meddling too much!" Qian Lingyun frowned impatiently and put away the divine core in her hand.

"Hey! The Golden Dragon King was killed by the Divine Realm Committee, and you just took the divine core yourself?"

Seeing that Qian Lingyun had openly and legitimately taken the divine core, Tang San's eyes twitched involuntarily. He was about to use moral blackmail when he realized that Qian Lingyun's thinking was very clear:

"You killed the Golden Dragon King, but he spat out the divine core himself. Since he spat it out, it's unclaimed. Unclaimed things belong to the destined one! I got it, so it's mine!"

"You!" Tang San was about to find another reason to attack, but then he remembered that Qian Lingyun had not participated in the battle at all, unlike him who was exhausted from working non-stop after breaking the seal.

If things really come to a head, he might not necessarily gain anything.

After thinking it over, he could only purse his lips and say no more.

"Rou'er, come here quickly!"

Seeing Tang San swallow this bitter pill with a dark face, Qian Lingyun no longer concealed her purpose and generously threw the Golden Dragon King's divine core to Qian Rou'er.
