Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

The entanglement between the Crimson God-King and Yan continued, but she became increasingly anxious because she was all too aware of her current situation. In addition to the pressure from Yan, there was also the hidden danger of the laws of the universe. Continuing to drag on would be too disadvantageous for her.

Although the laws of the universe do not possess a unique consciousness, they can amplify or diminish certain things based on their own repulsion or affinity.

The Crimson God-King belongs to the "abandoned" "dark side of the universe," the kind of cosmic cleaners who are rejected by the laws of the universe. And causing such a major incident only exacerbates her unfavorable situation.

For example, if she exhibits even the slightest bit of madness, it could be magnified, leading her to do things she shouldn't have done.

Just like before, before becoming a god-king, she forcibly devoured all her children. Afterward, she realized that, rationally speaking, she shouldn't have done it at all.

The real strategy at that time was not to be greedy, but to quickly retreat far away, plan slowly, and improve gradually. Since the way to become a god-king had already been found, studying it for a longer period of time might be the best of both worlds, without having to make such a huge sacrifice.

But at the time, she was completely insane and did something utterly irrational. Looking back now, it all seems like a dream, and even when she successfully broke through to the God-King level, she still had some doubts in her mind: how did she manage to succeed?

Everything at that time was too coincidental. There was just the right opportunity; she absorbed all the crimson energy and advanced to the next level, all with remarkable ease. She herself was somewhat bewildered. Had the laws of the universe, instead of using this situation to destroy her, taken pity on her?

She quickly dismissed the idea, because after the breakthrough, she could feel herself being rejected by the entire universe.

This feeling was extremely painful, even for a god-king. Otherwise, she wouldn't have proposed peace talks with Yan, or even gone so far as to humbly beg to become his slave.

She had no choice; to survive, she needed enough leverage to mask this rejection. Although she was already powerful enough, the laws of the universe were too mysterious, blatantly exposed, and she might be inexplicably wiped out at any time.

To survive being rejected by the universe, one needs to struggle, to constantly struggle, to find more opportunities for oneself. And that's what she's been doing all these years.

She had long since lost all sense of honor and shame. If Yan was willing to accept her, she would actually be willing to be pinned down by him, and take this opportunity to have some more capable 'children'.

However, the negotiations have broken down. Yan, this 'unromantic' guy, rejected her good intentions, so they can only become enemies. She also needs to consider the future, and it is very necessary to find out the details of her enemy. Moreover, the other party is not willing to let her go either.

Having thought this through, the Crimson God-King made her decision. She slowly raised her right hand, and a huge crimson vortex began to appear centered on her palm. She no longer intended to entangle herself with the matter.

The longer the time passes due to the repulsion caused by the laws of the universe, the more obvious that feeling of repulsion becomes, making her increasingly uneasy.

She has no idea what Yan is capable of right now, and if she continues fighting, she'll probably be finished. She has to leave as soon as possible, even if it comes at a price, to get rid of this entanglement.

This time, the deep red vortex was even more intense than before, with its suction force at least twice as strong. Even the Silver Dragon King and the gods watching from afar were almost unable to control themselves as they were pulled towards it.

Yan's platinum divine radiance turned into a dazzling golden color. At this moment, he was like a pillar that stabilized the sea, remaining unmoved by the turbulent waves and completely unaffected by the vortex.

"Buzz..."

The crimson vortex suddenly unleashed immense power. In the distant space-time, some planets and meteorites gradually deviated from their original trajectories. It was as if a giant spider web had appeared out of thin air in the universe, sticking everything to the web and pulling it back.

The Crimson God-King's eyes were filled with extreme madness, and her vortex of divine power continued to spread, trying to influence the surroundings and break through the 'iron wall prison' personally set up by Yan. She pushed her Devouring Dao to its limit, attempting to defy the heavens and break everything.

At this moment, she no longer cared about the laws of the universe and used all her power without reservation.

She had held back her strength when facing Yan earlier, not out of any conspiracy, but out of a sense of helplessness.

Because she needs to reserve most of her strength to be prepared to deal with suppression or even destruction from the laws of the universe. For example, she needs to maintain extreme mental clarity and the ability to react at any time.

However, she didn't want to delay any longer. She understood the saying "the longer you delay, the more problems may arise." Continuing to delay might even ruin her.

The gods, led by the Silver Dragon King, retreated quickly because they could all feel their divine power being affected and drained away. Some of them could even clearly feel their bodies becoming weaker, and the weakness was increasing at an alarming rate.

Their divine power, and all other energies, became nourishment for the Crimson God-King at this moment. Countless powers bearing strong personal imprints entered her body. While the Crimson God-King rapidly improved herself, it also planted a huge hidden danger for her.

Just as some of the creatures were about to give way to this devouring, Yan's figure suddenly became incredibly dazzling. A vast and powerful energy suddenly shot into the sky, transforming into a huge light shield that enveloped and protected the Crimson God King, effectively blocking the Crimson God King's all-out devouring attack.

"Hahaha, you thought this level of skill could stop me? I've finally forced you to take action."

The Crimson God King's consciousness went mad once more, and his hatred for Yan rose to its peak, causing him to lose his composure again.

"Do you think forcing me to make a move beforehand will end well?"

Yan coldly spoke as he unleashed a palm strike, a powerful divine light sweeping outwards, while the crimson light on the Crimson God King's side grew increasingly intense. With a mere wave of his hand, the vortex suddenly reversed, the suction force transforming into a repulsive force.

"Boom!"

The golden divine light and the deep red blazing light collided once more, and amidst the violent roar, a terrifying explosion swept through the void once more, instantly creating and destroying countless black holes.

A strange white light suddenly broke through the crimson waves and crashed directly into the vortex of the Crimson God King. The intense impact seriously injured her, but with ample energy, she also possessed a strong self-healing ability, and the wounds on her body quickly healed.

The white light was not extinguished immediately; after striking the Crimson God-King, it continued to unleash wave after wave of impact. The Crimson God-King's body trembled and swayed from the impact, constantly emitting dazzling light.

"It's no use... No, this is impossible, my power..."

Just as the Crimson God-King was about to gather her power to drive away the white light, she suddenly discovered that her power was rapidly disappearing, just as she was constantly absorbing other energies. It was as if some powerful being was also devouring her power. She immediately pinpointed the source: the white light. But this was what made it even more unacceptable to her.

The Crimson God-King herself rose to power through devouring, and the key law after her ascension to God-King was also 'devouring'. In other words, she was the authority in this field, unless another 'devouring' God-King appeared.

But what she was experiencing at that moment was that a white light was constantly draining her power, a situation that truly terrified her.

Why do you think it's impossible? Isn't everything possible?

A cold smile crept across Yan's lips, his eyes holding a half-smile. The Crimson Mother had fallen into his trap from the very beginning. Trying to break free? How could she possibly succeed?

She attained enlightenment through devouring, so she could naturally absorb other energies to replenish herself. The energy intensity in many regions of this universe is not high, making it suitable for this guy to act as a transfer station to 'purify' energy. The more she devours and transforms, the greater Yan's gains will be.

So at the beginning, Yan allowed her to devour energy, and only now has he officially taken action, which means it's time for everything to end.

The Crimson God-King's devouring power was indeed very strong, but she encountered Yan, and the key to Yan's advancement to God-King was 'devouring nothingness'. This guy was similar in attributes to the Crimson Mother, but in essence, or rather, in the way of devouring, Yan was more powerful.

The Devouring Nothingness almost devoured the Underworld and the Creator God of the Mad God Universe, so its Devouring Dao is naturally stronger than that of the Crimson Mother.

Yan withstood the test of 'devouring nothingness' and completely devoured it, making this 'unconscious tumor' entirely his own. Naturally, he inherited its powerful essence, which included 'devouring'.

However, Yan rarely uses this kind of power, so he didn't show it much before, and now he has caught the Crimson God King off guard.

Most of her skills lie in this Devouring Path, but now that the crucial Devouring Path is ineffective, she'll likely be swept aside in the upcoming battle.

"I refuse to accept this."

The massive crimson vortex erupted, shattering the white light. The area around the Crimson God-King twisted wildly. At this moment, she chose to unleash her power, unwilling to be tricked to death by Yan.

"Your madness is putting me in a difficult position! Should I just drain your strength and leave you only with your incompetent madness?"

A hint of madness gradually crept into the Crimson God-King's eyes. She was utterly fed up with the entanglement, and her unease was growing stronger; she couldn't wait any longer. She had to end this battle swiftly, at all costs. Yan, however, spoke calmly and unhurriedly, completely ignoring her words.

You'll regret this.

Seeing that he was about to be drawn in, the Crimson God-King was naturally unwilling to fail, and immediately went berserk, destroying everything in his path.

"I'll regret this. You should worry about yourself first! What are you without the Crimson Realm? The Crimson Mother? Look at this."

At this moment, Yan spoke again. Suddenly, the Crimson Mother sensed a subtle movement of air and a chilling sensation came over her. Almost instinctively, she raised her hand to grab it.

"Pfft~~~"

The Crimson God King grabbed the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd. This super artifact had been in his hands for so long, and now it was finally usable.

The Crimson God-King's face was deathly pale, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, and her body was covered in blood. The immense power carried by the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd had slammed into her chest, and the vast divine power had raged within her body, causing even her God-King level divine consciousness to tremble.

"Roar~~~"

The Crimson God-King roared in agony, disbelief still lingering in her eyes. She was injured; this was definitely not over.

At this moment, all the red light on the horizon faded away amidst her frenzied rampage, and a terrifying crimson band of light swept out wildly.

Chapter 769 Annihilation of Crimson

"How could you possibly be this strong!"

The Crimson God-King was pierced through the body by the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd, while Yan on the other side was constantly devouring her power, gradually causing her to lose the ability to resist. During this process, the Crimson God-King also truly felt how powerful Yan was.

The power of Yan, unleashed to its fullest extent, gave her a feeling that went beyond mere strength. Despite her God-King level, she seemed utterly powerless to resist.

How could there be such a powerful being? Even the King of Gods, who already possesses the divine realm, is no more than this, right?

The Crimson God-King suddenly laughed, her laughter tinged with madness. "It's here, it's finally come after all? Good! Very good! The laws of the universe, what a fine law of the universe. You've calculated everything perfectly after all, leaving me no chance at all?"

"Fine! Come on then, let's see if you can kill me, or if I can kill you."

As the Crimson God-King spoke, she became increasingly frantic. She seemed to no longer suppress her emotions, and streaks of crimson light appeared out of nowhere, heading straight for Yan. In that instant, she unleashed all her power.

"You still won't give up!"

Yan stood motionless, but when the deep red light streaks rushed into the area within a thousand feet of his divine body, they vanished without a trace. They were all blocked by a faint layer of light, disappearing without leaving any mark.

The Crimson God-King's attack had reached its limit, yet it couldn't even make Yan raise his hand to counterattack.

"impossible……"

The Crimson God-King was stunned, then screamed wildly. For him, this situation was like falling into an ice cellar.

She never imagined that she would encounter this situation after becoming a god-king, so powerful that it suffocated her and made her unable to fight back at all.

"No, that's impossible. How could you so easily neutralize my attack? That's the power of a God-King!"

The Crimson God-King screamed madly, her attacks becoming increasingly intense. The crimson light emanating from her body seemed to have been ignited, causing the surrounding cosmic space to begin to burn.

But the more she did this, the stronger the repulsion from the universe became towards her. Yan, on the other hand, remained suspended there, and no matter how she attacked, the attacks were instantly annihilated, with Yan absorbing most of the energy.

Aside from constantly devouring and eroding the divine power of the Crimson God-King, he made no other moves. He was gradually pushing the Crimson God-King into a desperate situation, and only at her peak would he seize the final reward.

What is this?

Suddenly, Yan emitted a peculiar fluctuation, and the Crimson God King's pupils began to contract violently. This strange change calmed her down a bit, and she quickly gathered her own power into her body, trying to avoid being devoured by Yan.

She didn't know what had happened, but at this moment, the intense unease had become even more pronounced.

The sky seemed to have opened up. Brilliant, multicolored light silently poured down, covering Yan's entire body in nine-colored light.

A terrifying aura continued to rise and spread. Powerful energy fluctuations swirled and rose in the air. Each change in energy exerted an indescribable, overwhelming pressure.

At this moment, Yan exuded an aura that was so terrifying that it was as if he were a world in himself, the core of the entire universe.

The madness in the Crimson God-King's eyes gradually faded. She seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes became furtive.

The Crimson God-King was able to develop the Crimson Domain to this level, which naturally meant he possessed extremely high intelligence. At this moment, he was naturally able to notice that Yan's condition was not quite right.

She suddenly soared into the sky. In the next instant, she was already ten thousand meters away. Sure enough, just as she had predicted, Yan remained suspended there, not leaving his spot to give chase.

A look of joy flashed across the Crimson God Queen's eyes. Without further hesitation, she charged toward the edge of the universe, attempting to escape the Douluo Universe at this moment.

Just as the Crimson God King was about to escape and rush into a vortex ahead, suddenly, everything froze.

The Crimson God-King's joy faltered. Her hands, which had reached out from the black hole, seemed to sink into mud, and her movements became incredibly slow. But she was still trying to move, still trying to escape.

"You have no chance. I've spent so much time training you, how could I let you escape?"

Yan's sigh rang in her ears, and the Crimson God-King was horrified as she tried to sense him. What she saw was Yan slowly turning around, facing her.

"He's bound to fail. He dares to make any rash moves at a time like this? He'll definitely suffer a backlash. He's doomed to fail. Just die already..."

The Crimson God-King screamed and cursed wildly in her heart. But in reality, she saw Yan slowly raise his hand, and a golden light quickly condensed.

The Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd, which had previously wounded the Crimson God King, quickly entered Yan's palm. This super artifact came from the abyss, but Yan quickly refined it into his own possession.
