"Good grief, good grief!"
Gossip, gossip!
Hidden off to the side watching the battle, the twin-tailed Ning Rongrong toyed with her own twin tails, her face showing an expression of "I heard everything."
"The Dragon God's fall involving cause and effect—it's truly unbelievable."
Cause and effect—something like that—could it really exist in the baseline brick of xianxia, the Douluo Continent?
But in Ultimate Douluo, there was a character named Long Tianyang.
He mentioned the Dragon Horse Galaxy to Lan Yuxuan, along with some "ten-dimensional space" theory and the like. Are we sure this is a xianxia worldview and not sci-fi?
"Well, whatever, it doesn't matter." The twin-tailed Ning Rongrong gathered her thoughts and shrugged. "Leave the brain-taxing stuff to the main body. She's the one who's bored out of her mind anyway."
The Dragon God was influenced, leading to backlash that spread to the entire soul beast clan, forcing the rule that soul beasts cannot become gods—that was roughly the gist of it.
Some novels or anime had similar sayings.
Those who play with time will be played by time in return.
The Time Dragon King—clearly the weakest in strength but the most adept at causing trouble—why did you have to go peek at the future for no reason!
And what you saw was only the scene of the Dragon God Realm's destruction, without any cause or preceding events.
It's like prophesying an outcome, then desperately trying to change it, only to find that your every action is actually drawing you closer to that very result.
"Hm... I should mention this to the main body."
If she keeps messing with time and accidentally erases herself, that'll be massively awkward.
If the main body dies, no big deal—eighteen years later, another loli.
But all us clones would be properly screwed. We wouldn't even get to reincarnate.
That wouldn't do. Clones have human rights too, you know.
While the twin-tailed Ning Rongrong was muttering to herself.
The Asura God had already closed in on Gu Yuena with the Asura God Sword in hand, faint blood-colored flames swirling around his body.
"Sigh! Peak first-level god, huh." The twin-tailed Ning Rongrong felt a headache coming on.
It was certain that Gu Yuena could temporarily seal the Divine Realm.
If she accidentally died, the seal would probably be lifted above, and things would become even more troublesome.
Thinking of Gu Yuena's reckless operations, the twin-tailed Ning Rongrong was speechless.
"Dragging someone here, only to get counter-killed herself."
Sure enough, just like the Dragon God—had some real skills.
"And just as wise."
A silly-cute dragon like that—maybe even the main body could easily trick her into bed, and without even paying.
"Ah pfft pfft pfft pfft, what am I even thinking!"
The twin-tailed Ning Rongrong shook her head vigorously to shake off the messy thoughts.
On the other side, sensing the Asura God's undisguised killing intent.
Gu Yuena staggered back several steps.
"Asura, do you think you've already won?"
Gu Yuena bit down on her pearly teeth, her anger surging upward.
If only it were his true body.
The dragon soul's power could no longer seal the Divine Realm for much longer. If she could kill the Asura God, perhaps she could comprehend the rules.
Then, by stripping the Asura God's presence from the dragon soul's rules, she could fully fuse with the Dragon God's dragon soul without being affected by the Asura's bloodthirsty aura.
What to do?
Killing this clone would be meaningless—it wouldn't retain his signal. The Asura God's true body in the Divine Realm would definitely know.
If only she had the rules of time. Sealing both time and space would completely prevent any message from reaching the true body.
She had been too careless. She hadn't expected the Asura God to be so cautious, nor had she expected Tang San to be a person from the future and the holder of the Asura god position.
"Time... time..."
So in the end, I, Gu Yuena, just like the Dragon God, got screwed over by time again?
"I can help you."
"Who!"
Gu Yuena suddenly froze.
"You don't need to know who I am. I can help you set up an array to seal the entire Dragon Valley with the laws of time, locking down the space. You just need to find a way to defeat the Asura God."
"Who exactly are you?"
"Will you do it or not?"
"I will!"
Gu Yuena gritted her teeth. Although the flow of time in the Dragon Valley involved space-time, she, Gu Yuena, did not possess the ability of time.
No matter what the other party's goal was, solving the immediate problem came first.
With that thought, Gu Yuena coordinated with the other party.
The dejected aura vanished abruptly. A sharp Dragon God pressure surged upward.
"What!"
The Asura God was stunned.
"You've gone mad? Forcibly using the Dragon God's power—even you won't come out unscathed."
The Asura God had expected Gu Yuena to flee, allowing him to leave the Dragon Valley.
As long as this clone could return to the mortal world and coordinate from inside and out to break the shackles on the Divine Realm, the mission would be complete.
This woman...
The Asura God did not dare be careless.
After all, she was the embodiment of the Dragon God's wisdom—no matter how much he belittled her.
In truth, he never believed a little trick of his could make Gu Yuena fall completely.
"Hmph. Since you want to fight, then come!"
"I'll accompany you with my life."
The words had barely fallen.
Yet the Asura God was suddenly blasted backward with a "boom," crashing into a mountain range a thousand meters away.
"Pfft!"
The Asura God spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn it. Such a massive increase in power!" The Asura God was incredulous. "Is this woman trying to die?"
Seeing Gu Yuena appear before him once more, the Asura God wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Asura God Sword—Slash!"
"Dragon God Claw"
The clash of divine powers—the might unleashed by the Dragon God Claw directly suppressed the blood-colored sword qi.
"Riiip—"
Three clear gashes appeared on the Asura God's armor. Scarlet blood seeped deeply from within.
"Gu Yuena, let's see how much longer you can last."
The Asura God no longer held back. He fully channeled the power of his god position.
"Body and sword united, soul and god united."
"Asura Blood Sword"
The Asura God's divine power poured into the Asura God Sword. Vast flames dyed the sky blood-red.
Under the release of power, the Asura God Sword—which had lingered on the Douluo Continent—began to show faint cracks, as if it could no longer withstand the surge of divine power.
"Die!"
The blood-colored flames rapidly converged, forming a massive sword shadow that split the sky in two.
One half red, the other half normal.
"Dragon God Heart"
Gu Yuena fully activated the Dragon God Heart in her chest. The Silver Dragon Spear emitted a faint glow, and her pupils turned gold in an instant.
"Divine Skill—Creation and Destruction"
In that instant, powerful laws shattered the Asura God's rule power.
Terrifying divine power surged toward the Asura God's position at lightning speed.
"A half-step God King realm boost that can unleash power extremely close to God King realm—is it because of the Dragon Valley?"
"So this was your trump card! Damn it—I underestimated you."
The Asura God retreated repeatedly. He knew Gu Yuena must have a very strong ultimate move, one capable of even breaking the spatial seal on the Dragon Valley.
As long as that happened, he could withdraw.
Then...
"Zafkiel: City of Devouring Time—Time-Space Imprisonment!"
An abrupt voice echoed throughout the entire Dragon Valley.
Massive array patterns rapidly condensed and manifested high in the sky.
"What!"
The Asura God's expression changed drastically. "Impossible! Who—who exactly is it!"
The rules of creation and destruction engulfed the Asura God's body. He let out miserable, piercing screams.
"The rest is up to you."
A fully mosaicked figure appeared, then quickly vanished.
"You are..."
Gu Yuena opened her mouth, wanting to say something.
The Asura God had been swallowed by her ultimate move. He probably wasn't dead, but he was close enough. As long as the information didn't reach the Divine Realm, it would be fine.
The appearance of this massive array pattern made the Dragon Valley even more unbreakable and completely isolated passage. She could feel that she was able to control this array.
At this moment, Gu Yuena could no longer sense the earlier figure.
"She left?"
Gu Yuena murmured, then turned her gaze toward the Asura God whose divine power was rapidly declining.
"I need to hurry. If I'm influenced by the killing aura again like when I first fused with the dragon soul, it won't be so easy to recover."
Thinking back to when she fused with the dragon soul, felt herself losing control, and hurriedly pushed Di Tian out of the Dragon Valley.
It seemed she had even injured Di Tian in her unclear state of mind.
Di Tian was thick-skinned and tough—he should still be alive... right?
