Chapter 327 Lu Xiao goes into seclusion, dimensional anomalies occur
With the great battle over, the atmosphere of the Star Dou Great Forest gradually calmed down.
However, the residual shockwaves from that divine-level collision spread like ripples throughout the entire Douluo Continent.
Deep within the Beidou Academy.
A secluded cultivation place sealed off by Lu Xiao with his supreme sword intent.
He was originally immersed in mastering the God-Slaying Sword and sorting out his own power.
"Um?"
Suddenly, his brows furrowed slightly.
The god-king level spiritual power spread out without reservation, instantly piercing through tens of thousands of miles of space.
They caught a glimpse of those fleeting, terrifying auras deep within the Star Dou Great Forest.
One of them was the Silver Dragon King's essence belonging to Gu Yuena, carrying the unique vastness and majesty of elemental power.
The other was the angelic light unleashed by Qian Daoliu burning his divine power, sharp and domineering.
Yet it also carried an undeniable sense of panic and dejection after being severely injured.
besides...
There's also the oppressive aura of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King from Di Tian, the Rakshasa God aura from Bibi Dong, and the berserk soul power of the Golden Crocodile Douluo...
Several top-tier forces collided violently, then suddenly converged within a very short time.
Lu Xiao slowly opened his eyes.
A hint of understanding flashed in his eyes, along with a touch of slight surprise.
"The Starry Sky Forest... has caused such a commotion."
"Bibi Dong, Golden Crocodile Douluo, and even Qian Daoliu personally took action."
After a moment's thought, he had a pretty good idea of the cause and effect.
"They must have discovered Tang San and Xiao Wu's whereabouts and took the opportunity to kill them all, while also hunting down the Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, two 100,000-year-old soul beasts."
"They're quite bold, though. They know that Di Tian and Gu Yuena are stationed in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, yet they still dare to act so recklessly."
In Lu Xiao's view, in the past...
Even if the Spirit Hall had ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare to easily venture into the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.
But with the appearance of the celestial curtain, opportunities abound.
People's hearts also swelled as a result.
A 100,000-year soul ring and a 100,000-year soul bone are enough to make any Title Douluo take the risk.
However, the result was somewhat unexpected for Lu Xiao.
"Gu Yuena made a move, but how did Qian Daoliu and his group manage to escape unscathed?"
A faint hint of curiosity appeared on Lu Xiao's lips.
He knew all too well the terror of a god-king level power.
At Gu Yuena's level, even a casual strike would be enough.
It was not something that a newly-broken-god-level expert like Qian Daoliu could withstand.
There are only two reasons why I survived.
"First, Gu Yuena did not intend to kill; she only used her strength to intimidate, not to go all out."
"Secondly, Qian Daoliu paid an extremely heavy price, mostly by burning his own essence, sacrificing his divine power, and using some kind of trump card artifact to barely escape with his life."
After all, if Gu Yuena really had murderous intent, let alone Qian Daoliu.
Even if ten more came, they would be instantly annihilated by that seven-colored stream of light, leaving not even a trace.
"Never mind."
Lu Xiao withdrew his spreading spiritual energy and closed his eyes again.
He has no interest in getting involved in the feud between the Spirit Hall and the Star Dou Great Forest for the time being.
Tang San, Xiao Wu, Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu...
To him, the lives and deaths of these people were nothing more than dust and ants.
His only goal now is to become stronger.
Previously, relying on various opportunities from the system and the rewards from the Heavenly Curtain, his combat power barely reached the level of a God King.
However, his cultivation level was not at the God-King level; he was a pseudo-God-King created by external forces.
It appears powerful, but in reality, it lacks sufficient foundation.
If you encounter a truly stronger opponent, unexpected situations can easily arise.
"Take advantage of this peaceful period to go into seclusion and cultivate."
"Completely digesting the system rewards, the bounty of the Marriage Space, and the sword dao insights gained after the God-Slaying Sword broke through to the highest artifact level..."
"To solidify one's realm completely and truly break through to the God-King level."
Once his cultivation level is stable, he can further enhance his abilities by wielding the supreme artifact in his hand: the God-Slaying Sword.
At that time, his strength will far surpass that of all God-Kings, and he will be able to fight even against beings above the God-King level.
Faced with the future invasion of the spirit world, which is both elusive and terrifying.
Only then can he possess the true power to protect himself, and even to protect Beidou Academy and everything he cares about.
Lu Xiao stopped thinking about it and focused his mind completely on his body.
The God-Slaying Sword hovered above his head, golden divine light descending and enveloping him in a primordial sword aura.
The retreat has officially begun.
Above Beidou Academy, the sword intent was contained, with not a trace leaking out.
It was as if the entire academy had become an ordinary valley.
...
Starry Sky Forest, Core Area.
Gu Yuena dismissed Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts, then looked up at the sky.
Her gaze pierced through the clouds and across the Douluo Continent.
Looking out over the Douluo Continent, there was a faint golden film.
It was a dimensional barrier, and also a barrier that shielded the perception of the divine realm.
It was precisely because of the existence of this golden film that the God Realm was slow to detect the dramatic changes in the Douluo Continent.
No one discovered that the Silver Dragon King had reappeared in the world.
Furthermore, no evidence was found that the Soul Beast race was quietly rising to prominence.
But at this moment, a hint of solemnity appeared in Gu Yuena's purple eyes.
"As expected... it's being weakened."
She murmured to herself, her voice cool and clear, yet carrying a hint of barely perceptible worry.
Since the invasion of the Abyss Plane and the appearance of phantoms of powerful beings from the Spirit Realm in the Marriage Space.
She had a vague feeling about it.
The golden film protecting the Douluo Continent is gradually weakening, thinning, and cracking at an irreversible rate.
Before long, this film will disappear completely.
At that time, the God Realm will instantly gain complete insight into everything about the Douluo Continent.
And she, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, is the existence of the Dragon God after his split.
It will also be completely exposed to the vision of the divine realm.
The five great god-kings of the divine realm would never allow her to live.
The grudges from the Dragon God War back then have long been ingrained in their bones.
Once they arrive, the Soul Beast race will face annihilation.
Gu Yuena took a deep breath, suppressing the gravity in her heart.
Although she now possesses the combat power of a god-king, her physical body, elemental control, and divine soul power have all reached their peak.
But in the end, he did not break through to the God King level!
In a one-on-one fight, she fears no god-king.
Even if she were to face two god-kings at the same time, she would be confident that she could deal with them and even defeat them.
However, in the realm of gods, there are as many as five god-kings.
With the five of them working together, she has no chance of winning.
"We must hurry."
"Before the God Realm descends, we should do our best to improve the overall strength of the Soul Beast race and cultivate more God-level Soul Beasts."
"At the same time, I myself need to make another breakthrough, and it would be best if I could recover some of the Dragon God's power from back then..."
She withdrew her gaze from the distant sky and once again focused on the vast, mysterious, and silent celestial canopy.
This thing has a mysterious origin and is all-knowing and all-seeing.
It publishes lists, bestows opportunities, showcases the future, and changes destinies...
It seems to be driving everything, yet it also seems to be observing coldly from the sidelines.
What will be the next list?
"Is it another list... or a list closely related to the soul beast race?"
