At that moment, an indescribably terrifying aura suddenly surged up from beneath the Dragon God's feet.
The entire enormous platform was instantly bathed in brilliant nine-colored light, while every star in the sky flared brightly, becoming more dazzling than ever before.
The vast, ocean-like Immortal Spirit Qi surrounding them seemed to have answered an emperor's summons, rushing frantically and recklessly toward the platform to form a massive energy vortex centered on the Dragon God.
At some point, a staff had appeared in the Dragon God's hand, its entire body gleaming with nine-colored divine light and wreathed in runes.
The instant the staff appeared, Gu Yue Na immediately recognized it. It was the Dragon Clan's supreme clan-defending Super Divine Artifact—the Ascending Dragon Pillar!
The Ascending Dragon Pillar in his hand burst forth with light that pierced the universe. The eighteen God King powerhouses surrounding the Dragon God seemed to receive a summons and encouragement, erupting into deafening roars and shouts at the same time.
Their roars shook the heavens, and the entire altar—even the whole Divine Dragon Realm—trembled along with them.
An immense momentum that sought to shatter the barriers of dimensions and transcend the limits of the universe was wildly rising and gathering around the Dragon God.
The Dragon God slowly raised the Ascending Dragon Pillar in his hand. His movements were solemn and unhurried, as though he bore the hopes and weight of the entire realm and the entire Dragon Clan.
The eighteen God Kings around him also raised their respective Divine Artifacts, pouring all their Divine Power into this grand ritual without reservation.
Among the eighteen Divine Artifacts radiating vast Divine Might, Gu Yue Na's gaze instantly locked onto one particular sword.
It was a longsword as red as blood, emanating an endless aura of slaughter and judgment.
