Douluo Continent: The Underworld Emperor Halosa Lets Three Fly

Chapter 235 The Basics

In the frigid void of space, the Dragon Valley microplane, like a meteorite emanating a faint dragon's might, moved steadily forward under Di Tian's careful control. A flash of silver light, and Gu Yuena's figure silently appeared in the core control area of ​​Dragon Valley.

Di Tian, ​​whose mind had been tense, finally relaxed slightly upon seeing his lord return safely, and respectfully bowed: "My lord."

Gu Yuena nodded slightly, her expression calm and composed: "Yes. You can continue to control it. You can also experience what it's like to travel through this boundless sea of ​​stars."

Di Tian replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

He continued to guide Dragon Valley as instructed, but a trace of indescribable confusion and subtle fear flickered uncontrollably in the depths of his sharp golden eyes.

Even though he was a first-level god who had dominated the Douluo Continent for hundreds of thousands of years, he still felt as insignificant as a speck of dust when he was truly placed against the backdrop of this vast and boundless universe.

Losing familiar celestial coordinates, surrounded by eternal darkness and distant points of light, a profound sense of disorientation quietly arises.

The universe is too big, and I am too small.

After flying in silence for a long time, Di Tian finally couldn't help but speak, asking the question that had been lingering in his mind: "My lord, there is something I don't understand."

Gu Yuena's gaze remained fixed on the endless darkness ahead, and she said calmly, "Speak."

Di Tian organized his thoughts, his tone tinged with confusion and a barely perceptible reluctance: "My lord, though Harossa is strong, we now have you by our side, and we possess two supreme artifacts—the Dragon God Core and the Ascending Dragon Pillar. Our strength is far beyond what it used to be. Why—why must we migrate our entire clan, leaving our homeland? Can't we stay in Douluo Continent and stand against Harossa?"

He has a long lifespan and a deep affection for Douluo Star, where he was born and lived for hundreds of thousands of years. It is the place where the Dragon Clan experienced both glory and silence, and where their roots lie.

This deep attachment to one's homeland is something even a god cannot completely sever. If it weren't for his absolute loyalty and obedience to Gu Yuena, he would never have easily agreed to leave.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena slowly turned around, her silver-purple eyes calmly fixed on Di Tian: "Do you believe that with the Dragon Clan's resources and two supreme artifacts, you are sufficient to engage in an equal contest with Harosa?"

Di Tian hesitated for a moment, but still said frankly, "I believe there is at least room for maneuver, and it is not necessarily necessary to go to a distant place."

Gu Yuena then asked, "Do you also believe that it is inevitable that I will merge with my brother's essence and return to the position of Dragon God, at which point I will be completely fearless of Harosa?"

This time, Di Tian answered with even greater certainty: "Yes! If Your Majesty can restore the Dragon God's power, Harosa will certainly be no match for you!"

Gu Yuena gently shook her head, her tone carrying a profound meaning: "Di Tian, ​​you're still too simplistic. Harosa's true terror lies not in his current God-King strength, but in his terrifying rate of growth. Think carefully, how long did it take him to rise from a mortal to where he is today? And how many tens of thousands of years has it taken us?"

She paused, then continued, "Staying in Douluo Continent may seem safe, but it's actually like sitting in a well and looking at the sky. Harosa's Samsara God Realm will continue to devour and evolve, and his understanding of the laws will become increasingly profound. If we cling to our corner, we will only be left far behind. At that time, the so-called rivalry will only become like a frog being slowly boiled in water, and we will eventually be unable to escape the fate of being gradually devoured and swallowed up. Leaving now is not only for stability, but also for change! Only by seeking opportunities in a wider world can the Soul Beast race truly find fertile ground for revival, instead of merely eking out an existence under someone else's rules."

o

Di Tian fell silent. Gu Yuena's words were like a hammer blow, shattering any lingering hope and nostalgia in his heart. He realized that his lord's vision was far more far-sighted and composed than he had imagined. Survival and rise to power allowed no room for sentimentality.

Seeing that Di Tian understood, Gu Yuena said no more and turned her gaze back to the deep universe: "Let's continue on. I have used the Dragon God Core to enhance my perception and vaguely sensed that in the far distance ahead, there is a gathering place of life with a high energy level, which may be a planet suitable for survival. If we can occupy it, it will be our new starting point."

Douluo Continent.

The Douluo Continent has now become Harossa's backyard, and there is no one left who can challenge its authority.

Inside the temple of the God Realm of Reincarnation, Harosa and Yali sat facing each other. In Harosa's palm, a thin wisp of chaotic light, bound by invisible divine power, slowly rotated; it was the origin of the Creation Law that he had "exchanged" from Gu Yuena.

"Yali, feel carefully, how is there any difference between this primordial source in my hand and the seed that naturally grows within your body?" Harosa asked.

Upon hearing this, Yali closed her eyes, drawing upon the perception of her life core to carefully sense it. After a long while, she slowly opened her golden eyes, a hint of surprise in them: "Indeed different—this strand in your hand feels to me—more restless, less docile, as if it contains some kind of unstable element."

Harosa nodded, affirming, "That's right, it's this kind of unruly nature." This was directly extracted from Gu Yuena's fused state, indicating that even though she managed to remove the most violent part of the Golden Dragon King's essence, the creation laws she derived still had flaws, even if they were more stable than the first Dragon God.

Yali seemed thoughtful: "So, you mean the one that's developing inside me is purer and safer?"

"That's right." Harosa said seriously, "The laws of creation are indeed powerful, all-encompassing, and have unlimited potential, but their foundation must be pure and solid. If there are hidden dangers at the source, and we blindly pursue power, the final result will probably only be to follow in the footsteps of the Dragon God's mad split. Power is valued for its purity and controllability."

Yali nodded in agreement, but then frowned: "But how can I help this seed of origin within me grow stronger? It's growing far too slowly."

Aside from Gu Yuena's method of fusing the essence of the Golden and Silver Dragon Kings, they all knew that it was a flawed shortcut that had been ruled out by Harosa.

Harosa reached out and pulled her into his arms, comforting her, "No rush, this matter needs careful consideration. We can't force things if the time isn't right. Right now, we have a more important task."

His gaze deepened and became filled with ambition as he looked towards the azure Douluo Star beyond the temple.

"We will transform the entire Douluo Galaxy into an impregnable—war fortress!"

Inside the temple, Harosa held Yali in his arms, his gaze seemingly piercing through time and space, seeing a grand blueprint for the future.

"For a long time to come, we will have a relatively stable period of development. Although the Douluo Galaxy currently does not have any high-energy planes worth devouring by the God Realm, apart from Douluo Star itself, it still has its unique advantages."

Yali nestled in his arms, tilting her head back, her golden eyes filled with curiosity: "What is it?"
