Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

Silver Dragon King... I wonder if he'll be very grumpy when he wakes up?

"Thank you for bringing us here, Qiu'er. I, Huo Yuhao, am deeply grateful. No matter what happens down there, I will make sure nothing happens to you and Dong'er before I fall."

Huo Yuhao suddenly became serious.

Qiu'er's eyes flickered, but she didn't respond. Suddenly, as if sensing something, she frowned, looked away, and took the lead in leaping into the air.

Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, then exchanged a glance with Wang Dong'er before jumping down as well.

The lake water instantly swallowed their figures, and the surface returned to calm, leaving only ripples that gradually spread outwards...

-----------------

At the very same moment that Huo Yuhao and the others jumped into the Lake of Life like dumplings being dropped into boiling water.

Shrek Academy, located on Poseidon Island.

The golden tree stood majestically. Its ancient canopy blocked out the sky, emitting a steady and powerful golden light that connected to the enormous Taotie figure.

Even with countless terrifying bursts of soul power erupting from the direction of the south city wall, the light of this ancient tree did not fluctuate in the slightest.

Beneath the tree roots, where the golden light was most concentrated, Kong Tianxu raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly clenched, and gently pressed it onto the radiant golden trunk.

A black vortex the size of a fist slowly spun out from the palm of his hand.

The moment the vortex appeared, countless smaller vortices, each the size of a fist, automatically formed in the surrounding space, revolving around the large vortex like stars surrounding the moon, rotating slowly at the same frequency.

At the edge of each small vortex, space is distorted into a layer of transparent ripples, making it impossible to see the scene inside the vortex clearly.

The next moment, a great light shone forth!

As if a sun had exploded in the heart of the tree, the roots of the golden tree trembled violently under his probing. Countless golden rays surged from the roots, spreading upwards along his arm, first flowing into his chest, and then completely engulfing Kong Tianxu!

……

outside world.

The light of the Golden Tree suddenly dimmed, and the golden light that had remained unchanged for thousands of years suddenly turned pale. The golden light band connecting the Taotie seal that enveloped Di Tian and the Golden Tree suddenly broke off!

Chapter 381 The Taotie Dies, Shi City Falls, and the Divine Dragon Emerges!

The entire golden tree trembled violently, and the golden light receded rapidly from its branches, leaves, and bark like the receding tide, leaving behind only a lifeless, pale color.

As the golden ribbon of light, severed like an umbilical cord, rapidly converged back towards the Golden Tree, the Shrek City defenders still fighting on the city walls looked up, gazing blankly at the sky. Meanwhile, the attacking spirit beasts became exceptionally excited, their offensive growing even more ferocious.

"Roar--"

The seal suddenly thinned, a deafening roar resounded in the sky, golden clouds surged, and golden light burst outwards like a punctured balloon.

A massive figure could be vaguely seen struggling within it, while streaks of black lightning crisscrossed and exploded in the clouds of light high in the sky.

On the city wall, Lin Huiqun suddenly looked up in the direction of the golden tree, her face turning deathly pale in an instant, her voice trembling:

"How is this possible! The immense energy contained in the Golden Tree should have been more than enough to seal the Heavenly Emperor's Three Realms, how could it have collapsed in less than a day..."

"Stop them with all your might!" Yan Shaozhe shouted.

Another deafening roar drowned out his words.

The seal, deprived of the Golden Tree's energy supply, abruptly ceased its transformation. A golden figure separated first, plummeting from the sky towards Shrek City. Although it was night, the entire sky instantly transformed into darkness even more profound than the night itself, and an indescribable, terrifying pressure descended from the heavens.

On the city wall, lower-level Soul Masters immediately collapsed to their knees, their chests feeling as if a huge rock was pressing down on them, making it difficult to even breathe. Ordinary soldiers without Soul Power were even more pale; some collapsed to the ground, fine blood seeping from their ears and nostrils. Even Title Douluo-level powerhouses were momentarily stunned by this oppressive force, feeling their Soul Power circulation stagnate.

The Beast God Di Tian gave Shrek Academy no chance to deal with the unexpected turn of events, breaking through the seal almost instantly!

The first golden light to separate transformed back into human form.

Xuanzi, on whom high hopes were placed, slowly fell like a withered leaf blown by the wind, drifting down from the sky above the south city wall.

His soul core had turned completely purplish-black and had even stopped rotating, and was gradually collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Xuanzi had truly burned out. Soul power, bloodline, life force... even the energy from his self-destruction was no longer present in his soul core.

Di Tian hovered in the air, his enormous dragon body fully extended, casting a terrifying shadow on the city wall, but he did not pursue and kill Yan Shaozhe and Song Lao as he had done before.

It simply hovered there silently, its golden vertical pupils looking down at the slowly falling figure of the old man, its gaze terrifyingly calm.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see that the Gluttonous Douluo was already exhausted. Not only his life force and soul power, but even his soul power had been completely depleted.

In other words, Xuanzi was already dead. His heart had stopped beating. The reason his body had not completely dissipated was only because that last bit of strong spiritual will was maintaining the shape of his body and preventing it from collapsing.

Emperor Tian raised his head and roared!

Angry dragon roars echoed continuously, the sky boiled, and patches of purple burned and exploded in the air. In the darkness, the entire sky suddenly turned completely purple.

The earth, the city, and the countless corpses of spirit beasts outside the city were all bathed in the same color. The entire Shrek City seemed to have fallen into a purple inferno.

Giant purple bubbles, each over ten meters in diameter, dripped down from the sky, emitting a dense purple mist. These bubbles covered the entire area of ​​Shrek City.

Outside Shrek City, the army of soul beasts, which had been extremely excited at the moment of Xuanzi's death, suddenly retreated rapidly into the distance under the leadership of the four ferocious beasts.

The hundreds of thousands of soul beasts, enveloped by this rain of purple bubbles, were unusually quiet. Their previously frenzied roars had all vanished, as if each one had been gagged, afraid to utter a sound. Their bloodthirsty, fanatical eyes now revealed a deep awe and fear.

Black Dragon Annihilates the World: Emperor Tian's most powerful area-of-effect attack.

In his more than 800,000 years of life, he used this soul skill very few times. Every time he unleashed the Black Dragon Annihilation, it would cause Di Tian to lose lifespan. Although he had lived for more than 800,000 years, he valued his life far more than other ferocious beasts.

After the previous failure of the combined forces of the Golden Tree and Taotie, Di Tian no longer intended to hold back. Although it was obvious that something went wrong on Shrek's side, and it was only sealed for less than half a day, it was enough to sound a huge alarm for it.

These humans, these seemingly weak ants, have repeatedly exceeded his expectations. From the death of the auspicious beast to the sealing of the Taotie, every step has made him feel an unprecedented threat.

This time, it will wipe out Shrek Academy in one fell swoop!

Purple bubbles rained down as Di Tian spewed forth from his massive maw, unleashing purplish-black dragon flames that cascaded down like waterfalls, carrying an aura of annihilation towards the city walls.

The titled powerhouses who were taking turns resting all made their moves. Although they had already expended a great deal of energy in the previous battles, none of them dared to retreat in the face of Di Tian's furious attack.

Beams of light rose from Shrek City, attempting to block the purple bubbles. Those who made the move were all titled Douluo-level powerhouses from Shrek Academy.

Suddenly, a ball of fire shot into the sky, the intense flames dyeing large swaths of clouds crimson. The dragon-shaped flames, transformed from the bow-dragon, drifted amidst the red clouds.

Shi Xing's seventh spirit ring shone brightly, and a huge silver disc floated in mid-air, with only a second hand slowly rotating on it.

"Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock!" The crisp sound of the second hand rang out.

Within the area where the Black Dragon's destruction was most concentrated, strange black currents began to appear one after another. When these black currents appeared, a strange phenomenon of twinkling stars appeared within a 500-meter diameter area, and the falling of the purple bubbles seemed to slow down considerably.

Immediately afterwards, the area with a diameter of 500 meters suddenly vanished, and all the purple bubbles that had been within that area disappeared.

The Time Douluo is popular, and his martial soul is called the Time-Space Silver Disc. He controls not only time, but actually exists between time and space, having some knowledge of both.

Spacetime turbulence—that was the ability he had just used—to forcibly drag those purple bubbles into the spacetime turbulence, causing them to explode in other regions.

However, manipulating time and space in front of a Limit Douluo who has truly mastered the mysteries of space is undoubtedly not a very rational choice.

Di Tian simply shook his head dismissively, a flash of silver light in his eyes.

Countless fiery clouds gnawed at Di Tian's scales, leaving only a faint black mark. Gong Changlong spat out blood, and his protective soul power scattered as if being sucked by a vortex. Shi Xing's martial soul true body was instantly shattered, and those vanished black dragons reappeared in their original positions!

The deafening roar echoed through almost every corner of Shrek City. Muffled groans emanated from various directions; this single attack had severely injured at least a dozen Title Douluos.

Moreover, even when such high-end combat power was instantly thwarted, a massive amount of world-destroying purple light and black dragon flames still broke through the defense line.

Purple bubbles exploded on the city wall, each one taking dozens of lives. The soul-guided cannons on the city wall were swept by the dragon flames, and the cannons made of refined iron instantly turned into molten iron.

Countless soldiers who had no time to dodge were engulfed by the dragon flames, turning into nothingness in the black flames before they could even scream.

The defeat came in an instant.

Xuanzi's body slowly dissipated in the sky.

Facing the reverent and fanatical gazes and roars of countless soul beasts, Di Tian coldly surveyed everything.

The power of a single dragon can overwhelm an entire city; this is the supreme power in the Douluo Continent, where the strong are respected.

"Belonging to the Stars—"

Suddenly, it roared to the sky, like a thousand thunderclaps, piercing through every street of Shrek City:

"Slaughter them all! Shrek City!"

The beasts answered his call. And so, the beast tide moved!

Surprisingly, Shrek Academy was not first attacked by a horde of crazed spirit beasts, nor by the ranged spirit skills of flying spirit beasts known for their speed.

The first blow came from a bear.

This was a giant bear, arguably the largest in the history of Douluo Continent. Its massive body stood fifteen meters tall, covered in a thick, dark golden fur. Its arms were incredibly long, hanging down at its sides. For a body of that size, the length of its arms exceeded its knees. In other words, its arms alone were over ten meters long and extremely thick.

With its enormous arms outstretched, it roared to the sky, its fur radiating a brilliant golden light, making it shine like a sun in the air. Its already massive body grew even larger, and its arms slowly rose, swinging upwards from in front of it, palms outwards.

The next moment, the intense golden light on its body suddenly condensed all towards its claws, and the originally dark gold claws instantly turned into a brilliant gold. On the surface of the sharp blades, one could clearly see ripples of light flowing around, and the golden light finally stopped at the sharpest point of the claws.

"Go to hell!"

With a roar, ten golden blades, each a thousand meters long, swooped down from the sky, carrying with them starlight that streaked through the darkness of space, and struck the city wall directly!

A scene that defied everyone's comprehension unfolded: like a knife cutting through flowing water, the city wall, fifteen zhang high and over twenty zhang thick, shattered into pieces in an instant! Blood splattered everywhere, and at that moment, all that remained in everyone's mind were those ten chilling claw lights that seemed to split the heavens and the earth!

This is the Bear of Ten Thousand Bears, the King of Bears, the King of Destruction with the strongest offensive capabilities, the 470,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Lord!

After unleashing the self-created battle technique, Sky-Tearing Claw, which had once injured Di Tian, ​​Xiong Jun's aura dimmed considerably. His chest heaved as he breathed heavily. Even with his 470,000-year cultivation level, he needed to catch his breath after a full-force attack. But he didn't stop. His eyes were filled with excitement and cruelty.

The Demon King curled his lip, maneuvering thousands of branches with a seemingly slow but actually fast speed, while the Crimson King and the Jade Princess silently rushed to the forefront of the beast tide.

The city has fallen.

Ferocious beasts have entered the city!

The razor-sharp claws swept across the sky, causing several buildings to collapse like building blocks, with countless rubble and wood chips flying through the air; giant vines that blotted out the sun spread in from outside the city, wrapping and crushing an entire street; the flames of the molten hell raged within the city, turning everything into a sea of ​​fire; in the hazy blue light, Bi Ji's emerald glow fell upon the wounded soul beasts, causing their severed limbs to regenerate and their wounds to heal.

Beneath the wings of the 580,000-year-old Emerald Swan, there is only death or life, no wounded, but for humankind, there is only despair.

Various spirit beasts roared and charged into the city through the breach in the city wall, their eyes gleaming with bloodlust.

The remaining city garrison stood frozen in place, bewildered, their weapons seemingly weighing a ton. Most of the veteran soldiers began to retreat, while only a small number of young men stubbornly fought or were killed.

Yan Shaozhe closed his eyes in despair.

"Is it... finally over?"

……

it is finally over.

Kong Tianxu slowly withdrew his right hand, which was deeply embedded in the trunk of the golden tree.
