Douluo Continent: The Myriad Body of Truth and Falsehood

Chapter 20 The Dragon God Abandons Him (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

Deep in Dragon Valley

The somber dragon clouds were suddenly forced to disperse, and the pitch-black spatial rift was slowly torn open and widened by a pair of dragon claws. It slowly pulled to both sides, and a series of low roars followed.

Upon hearing this deep roar, the dragon clouds within Dragon Valley unconsciously descended slowly, transforming into dragon shapes as if in worship.

A group of people fell down from the crevice, revealing their true forms.

Di Tian said, "My lord, time is of the essence. I am injured and may not be able to hold on for long. Three days is my limit. Please go and return quickly."

Two days is enough.

As the ferocious beasts continued to exert their power inside Dragon Valley, they attempted to stabilize the spatial rift and prevent the power of the small world from squeezing and repairing it.

The group looked around, faint dragon roars echoing in their ears, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth were crumbling, transporting them to an ancient battlefield. Dragons were falling one after another, and powerful enemies were charging in from all sides. The silver dragon's bloodline surged, its aura uncontrollable, and even Di Tian felt the sorrow and hatred within it.

Heaven is unjust, treating my dragon race so cruelly.

The divine realm would not tolerate it, forcing my dragon race to rise up in resistance.

The dragon race perished entirely due to the jealousy of the heavens. It was those humans, those despicable humans!

"Ha!" Bai Xu, the only human, chuckled. Azure flames ignited, and the innate power of his martial soul was activated. Endless karmic forces surged from all directions, like the rushing waters of a river, all flowing into Bai Xu's presence.

The causal fluctuations were overwhelming, and even the weakest person could sense Bai Xu's extraordinary actions at this moment.

Before long, Bai Xu held up a crystal-clear, solid fruit in his hand. The root stem produced another fruit, the size of a soybean, but it had transformed from the ethereal into the real world, truly affecting the real world.

The space around the Fruit of All Karma rippled slightly, sometimes shattering, sometimes rewinding. Spacetime twisted around it, freely radiating endless threads connecting the world. Karma came from these causal threads, infinite and boundless.

Bai Xu looked at the stunned Gu Yue and reassured her, "This will not harm anything in the Dragon Tomb. Karma is ethereal, scattered, and imperceptible. It has gathered into this form because countless resentments of dragons have accumulated here over the years. Even after hundreds of thousands of years, a large amount of karma still remains."

Seeing Gu Yue staring intently at the Fruit of Myriad Causes, Bai Xu reminded him, "Let's go, let's retrieve the Dragon God's Core, and while we're at it, absorb the Dragon Soul to heal ourselves."

"it is good"

The two gradually moved away from the ferocious beasts and walked on a path covered with the corpses of dragons. Although the dragons harbored resentment, Bai Xu, holding the Fruit of Myriad Karmas, could not exert any pressure on them.

Gu Yue glanced at him from the corner of her eye from time to time. She noticed that the Fruit of Myriad Karmas was becoming more and more solid and expanding, while the space around Bai Xu was becoming more and more distorted. The light was distorted, making Bai Xu's body look crooked and his appearance unbearable to look at, as if he wanted to be independent of the world.

This is a power unlike any other divine power before, seemingly an invisible karmic consequence from the dark dimension of the world, which even the gods cannot perceive.

"What are you looking at?"

A single sentence instantly brought Gu Yue back to reality. Looking at Bai Xu again, Bai Xu's face seemed to be distorted and was no longer visible. Although he was so close, she felt that his body was gradually becoming ethereal.

Gu Yue regained her senses, walked steadily forward, and said in a deep voice, "I have never seen such power before; it is beyond my comprehension." After a while, she asked again, "The space around you is distorted to such an extent, so why are you completely unaffected?"

Bai Xu understood, and immediately offered the Fruit of Myriad Karmas above his head, letting it slowly rise into the air until its entire figure reappeared. "It is influencing reality. Although no spell was cast, the karma gathered in this way automatically presents an illusion. In reality, I am still standing here, and have never moved."

"The sense of spatial distortion is so clear." As a favorite of spatial elements, Gu Yue naturally has a keen sense of perception.

"I can do it if I want to; it's as simple as a thought."

"I see. So this is your biggest trump card?" Gu Yue withdrew her gaze, all her questions answered, and she was somewhat surprised.

"Although the karma here is vast enough, it has been around for a long time, and its power is weak, with most of it on the verge of dissipation. Moreover, no causal events have occurred here, so it can't be considered a trump card; it's enough to protect ourselves. To counter such a strange ability, the only way is to fight against those who share the same path, or to crush them with a higher level; otherwise, I'm afraid there's nothing we can do."

Gu Yue remained silent, unsure whether Bai Xu was testing her intentions or had ulterior motives, deliberately revealing the method to counter this strange ability to unsettle people.

As she walked forward step by step, the sense of desolation emanating from Gu Yue's silver figure grew stronger and stronger. A layer of silver halo began to ripple around her entire body, and wherever she passed, the aura emanating from the dragon bones seemed to relax slightly.

After an unknown period of time, a massive dragon skeleton appeared before the two of them. It was over a thousand meters long and brownish-red in color. Its incredibly heavy aura made the gravity within a radius of several thousand meters seem quite different.

Bai Xu sighed softly: "Mountain Dragon King."

Gu Yue was not surprised by this. With her eyes lowered, she said with certainty, "You know all the secrets of our dragon race."

Bai Xu did not deny it, and admired it to himself, saying, "The mountain dragon must be the king. It has no dragon wings, its body is huge, and its limbs are like pillars supporting the sky."

Gu Yue asked in confusion, "You're looking at Zhongshan Long?"

"It's just for appreciation. There are many strange species here. I know about them, but I've never seen them before, so I came to see them for myself, but that's all." Bai Xu waved his hand.

Gu Yue, however, did not believe it and sincerely asked, "His remnant soul is still intact. I can persuade him to voluntarily offer up his torso and soul bones. Are you willing?"

"Does he want to offer up his soul bones?"

"Of course I don't want to, you are not a dragon."

"Then there's no need."

Gu Yue: "."

Sometimes she really couldn't see through Bai Xu.

The latest novel is first published here!

The two bypassed the mountain dragon and continued forward, arriving at the core of Dragon Valley. The valley was sunken, like a basin, with a diameter of ten thousand meters and a depth of one thousand meters. Nine-colored light mist surrounded the middle of the valley, and the aura of the dragon god was overwhelming.

"Let's go." Bai Xu, with the Fruit of Myriad Causes on his head, jumped down first, even before Gu Yue, treating all obstacles as nothing, as if he were invincible as long as he had this fruit on his head.

Passing through the nine-colored light mist, Bai Xu landed and finally saw the Dragon God and Dragon Soul, which was twice the size of the Mountain Dragon King. Its entire body shimmered with nine-colored light, and even its scales were nine-colored, as if they were inlaid with countless gems.

It raised its head high and looked at Bai Xu, its imposing aura arriving in an instant.

Bai Xu activated the Fruit of Myriad Deeds to connect with the Dragon God's soul, but before it could react, his consciousness found itself in a mysterious space. Scanning the area, he immediately spotted a majestic middle-aged man covered in nine-colored armor. His eyes were clear as water, without a trace of impurity, containing a nine-colored divine light that encompassed all things.

"Dragon God!?" Bai Xu was shocked, his expression changing drastically.

The middle-aged man was greatly disappointed to see Bai Xu arrive, but he was not angry. He sighed and said, "You are not the person I was waiting for. But you have come here and even left a mark on the silver dragon."

Bai Xu was on high alert, guarding against any deadly moves.

The Dragon God's strength is universally acknowledged; in fact, he could be resurrected at any time if he wanted to, but he was overwhelmed by guilt and felt that life held no meaning for him. He had lost his wife, killed his son, and the dragon race perished because of him, so he willingly fell into depravity and sank into this state.

He pinned his hopes on the successor of the Dragon God's position to resolve his obsession and help him reincarnate and find liberation.

"Your Excellency Dragon God, the Golden Dragon is dead, and the Silver Dragon has also pledged allegiance to me. I have brought the Silver Dragon here; is she qualified to inherit the Dragon God's position?"

Upon hearing this, the Dragon God's gaze shifted, and the image of the ancient moon appeared in the space. She was absorbing the Dragon God's soul to heal her injuries. "She is too obsessed with power. Once she merges with the Golden Dragon's origin, she will only repeat my mistakes. She is not qualified."

"So, with the Golden Dragon dead and the Silver Dragon under my control, your divine position is likely to be unsuccessful."

"As time goes by, the golden and silver bloodlines will not be lost. In the endless years, a suitable person will always be born. You should leave."

Bai Xu regained consciousness and returned to reality.

[Good heavens! The Golden Dragon King was killed, and I planted a mental imprint on the Silver Dragon King, yet the Dragon God doesn't care? Soul beasts are beneath the Dragon God's notice, and now that soul beasts are extinct, the Dragon God's heart remains as still as water, without the slightest tremor.]

The Golden and Silver Kings were abandoned by the Dragon God.

The Dragon God's position awaits only the destined one!
