Douluo Continent, Reborn: Yuhao and the Silver Dragon Keep Their Appointment

Tang San instantly pulled Xiao Wu into his arms, the Trident of the Sea God appearing in his palm in a flash. A deep blue divine halo quickly appeared behind him, stabilizing the entire Sea God Temple. Just as Tang San regained his footing, the Goddess of Life beside him looked extremely serious, her brows furrowed, and the surrounding aura pressed down once more, causing the Sea God Temple to tremble once more.

Tang San strode out of the Sea God Temple and looked up at space. A tiny black dot, no bigger than a pinhead, had appeared in the once deep blue sky. Though only the size of a pinhead, it instantly grew larger, expanding into a massive black vortex in the blink of an eye. Wherever the black vortex passed, all light and all aura were silently swallowed up; even the stable space of the God Realm began to violently distort and collapse. A terrifying suction force emanated from the black vortex, firmly holding the entire God Realm within it.

Tang San's face darkened, and he said urgently, "Quickly, the God Realm Central Hub!"

He and the Goddess of Life exchanged a glance, and powerful blue and green light enveloped everyone present, transforming into a ball of blue-green light that flew towards the central hub of the divine realm.

Within the central hub of the divine realm, the God of Destruction's immense divine power rapidly poured into it. His majestic and resonant voice echoed outwards through the hub: "Attention all deities of the divine realm! Attention all deities of the divine realm! This is the Divine Realm Committee. I am the God of Destruction! All deities, immediately depart from your residences, ascend to the Divine Realm Committee, and assemble to resist the temporal turbulence! I repeat: Assemble at the Divine Realm Committee immediately! Those who refuse will be punished by divine law!"

In a short while, the Goddess of Life and the Sea God arrived with the crowd, and the two, Good and Evil, also appeared in the central hub of the divine realm. The four of them exchanged a glance and simultaneously poured divine power into the central hub of the divine realm. The powerful divine power caused the central hub of the divine realm to activate a protective shield on the divine realm, but the powerful suction force emanating from the black vortex was still frantically destroying everything.

At this moment, the God of Destruction was relieved. Thankfully, he hadn't initiated the expansion of the divine realm; otherwise, it might truly be doomed. The divine realm had experienced a spacetime turbulence a million years ago, but its intensity was less than one-fifth of what it is now, yet it still lost nearly a third of its area. Over the past million years, the divine realm has continued to expand, but now it may be unable to withstand the spacetime turbulence…

A ruthless glint flashed in the eyes of the God of Destruction; the only way now was sacrifice.

In the original story, because the God of Destruction destroyed 108 pillars of psychic energy, he merged with the Goddess of Life, resulting in a divine sacrifice that protected the divine realm from destruction and the subsequent temporal chaos. However, this time the pillars of psychic energy were not destroyed, so only one sacrifice is needed…

He turned to look at Tang San, the Sea God, and chuckled, "Sea God, you're right. If I expand the God Realm, it might really cease to exist."

Tang San's face was grim. His child had just been born, yet they had encountered such a calamity. However, he knew that this calamity required a God-King to sacrifice himself, so that they could enter the temporal turbulence and not be directly destroyed. As long as they were in the temporal turbulence, there was still a possibility of escape... Without a God-King's sacrifice, the entire God Realm would be completely destroyed.

A complex emotion flickered in his eyes. He was now the trump card of the divine realm, possessing the dual divine positions of the Sea God and the Asura God. If he were to sacrifice himself, the divine realm would lose its greatest trump card. Good and evil were the laws of the divine realm. Although they were second-generation beings, not as powerful as the first, the God of Destruction had previously proposed expanding the divine realm, and given his selfless nature, he would certainly sacrifice himself to protect it…

Almost all the gods had arrived at the outer perimeter of the God Realm's central hub, but one person was missing... Huo Yuhao, the God of Emotions.

Rong Nianbing rushed in, shouting, "Yuhao is missing!"

The Goddess of Life paled instantly and asked, "Wasn't he unconscious in my Tree of Life? How could he be gone?"

Rong Nianbing looked anxious and shook her head, saying, "Impossible. I just went to look for him and found that he was gone."

The God of Destruction solemnly stated, "Now is not the time to concern ourselves with this. Inform those outside that when the spacetime turbulence truly arrives, prepare to inject divine power into the central core of the divine realm, vowing to perish alongside it!"

Looking into the resolute eyes of the God of Destruction, Rong Nianbing understood that this supreme god-king was probably going to sacrifice himself to ensure the safety of the divine realm...

The Goddess of Life understood, but she couldn't dissuade her; the safety of the divine realm had to be prioritized for the greater good. She also knew that sacrificing the God of Destruction was the most sensible choice; no one else could do it. She lived by creation, and if the divine realm ultimately entered the temporal turbulence and wasn't directly destroyed, she could use her creative power to stabilize it. The God of Destruction's destructive power was almost identical in origin to the power of the temporal turbulence. The temporal turbulence was a power formed by the mixture of time and space, and the power of destruction or life could effectively counteract it… and besides, Xiao Zi's personality…

On the other side, in the forbidden area of ​​the divine realm.

Huo Yuhao was sitting on a tree, his long hair flowing down his back, his eyes unfocused. Standing below the tree was a tall, strong man in his thirties, handsome with blood-red eyes and a fierce aura.

Looking at the black vortex in the sky that was visibly growing larger, Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that I will not be able to avenge myself."

The Golden Dragon King sneered, "You want the God Realm to survive, and you also want revenge on Tang San. How about we make a deal? We can punish Tang San and prevent the God Realm from being directly destroyed."

Huo Yuhao asked doubtfully, "What method?"

The Golden Dragon King revealed a sinister smile: "You used sacrifice to resist the temporal turbulence. As for Tang San, he just injected so much divine power into the God Realm's central core, so his divine power must be depleted. And the God Realm's central core now needs other God Kings to inject divine power, so they can only send one person to deal with me. The Asura God is the strongest single being, and he is also a dual god in one body. I can self-destruct and perish together with the Asura God, and you will not completely dissipate while resisting the temporal turbulence. At that time, I will inherit your dead soul. My core essence is impossible to kill. After entering the temporal turbulence, I can live on with my body, which means I will use your life to exchange for the Asura God's life, and I will possess you."

A hint of reluctance flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes, but if Tang San died, Aunt Xiao Wu would definitely go with him, and if he left, she would be heartbroken if she regained her memories...

The Golden Dragon King sneered, "So, do you want revenge on him? And I was talking about the fate of the Asura God. Tang San inherited both the Asura God and Sea God positions, but if I crush his Asura God position, his strength will definitely plummet, leaving him crippled for life. And the Asura God's inheritance will fall into his daughter Tang Wutong's hands. Are you sure you don't want to give it a try?"
