The moment Gu You finished cursing Tang Hao, Yue Zi felt that oppressive aura vanish. She showed no mercy.

Countless black spikes silently surged from the surrounding space. No energy fluctuations could be sensed. It was like a world corrupted by garbled code—pitch-black and unreal.

Gu You was pierced into a twisted mess, even through the heart.

The spatial fluctuations around them began to grow chaotically, yet that true heavenly pressure continued to suppress everything.

Yue Zi gave Gu You a deep look before turning and leaving.

"Did you enjoy that? Now it's my turn!!" An ancient pressure burst forth from Gu You's body. Yue Zi had underestimated him too much. Rather than attacking his Sea of Consciousness, she had focused on his physical body.

Gu You had always wondered how the many kinds of energy within his body coexisted: Extreme Ice, destruction energy, the aura of annihilation, ultimate destruction, and the Genesis Domain newly born on the Divine Wheel because of a trace of destruction. Countless endlessly renewing energies naturally could not coexist.

Yet Gu You could completely control these energies. What did he rely on? At this moment, he finally understood: the power of his bloodline! A bloodline at the level of the Dragon God. At the same time, the Dragon God's will had constantly been helping him. Its only flaw was that he could not make his next skill inherit a specific attribute of energy. Everything depended on his own bloodline to regulate it.

Roar!

His blood roared, and a purple-blue Soul Ring rose beneath Gu You's feet—the Blood Essence Soul Ring!!

Dragon Transformation!

The Blood Essence Soul Ring lit up, and Gu You's entire body began to transform. His flesh rapidly recovered, Dragon Scales covered his body, and he even grew a dragon tail.

This was a form unique to Dragon Martial Souls, one that was extremely difficult to learn. Normally, only those with exceptionally pure ancient dragon bloodlines could unleash it. But there was another form—for example, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul. Such a Martial Soul could gain a Dragon Transformation Soul Skill through a certain Soul Beast.

"How is that possible?" Yue Zi waved both hands, sending two black blades of light toward Gu You.

Gu You did not dodge. He reached his dragon claw toward the black spikes in his chest.

Crack! Squeak!

The black spikes were torn out. Gu You pointed with his dragon claw.

Annihilate!

The black light blades instantly dissipated. Gu You then pulled every black spike from his body. His flesh had already become riddled with holes, yet his terrifying recovery power could restore even bone and flesh.

Gu You truly had not expected the Plane Master to attack him. Was it because of the Dragon God aura on his body, or the Divine Wheel? Most likely, the Plane Master had discovered that he was not from the Douluo Plane.

Plane Master Tang Hao could easily suppress Soul Beasts, but to suppress humans, he could only act personally. For example:

The plant Soul Beast Thunderous Hellvine had been noticed by that old bastard Tang Hao because its talent was too high. Soul Beasts were very easy to suppress. He only needed to use his will to send down a beam of suppressive light.

Still, Gu You was not entirely certain whether the Plane Master at that time had been Tang Hao. But now he was one hundred percent sure. Since Tang Hao was targeting him, then his grandson should not expect an easy time. Once Gu You reached East Sea, he would see just how he dealt with Tang Wulin.

Fight!

Gu You's battle intent surged as he tried to close in on Yue Zi.

Evil God's True Body!

Yue Zi narrowed her eyes. A trace of divine aura emerged and blasted Gu You away.

"It really is Divine Power!" Gu You was deeply shocked. Could one truly become a god through this method of sacrifice?

His dragon claws swept up, and a dragon's roar shook the heavens. Space shattered in its wake as immense Destruction Power gathered together, even inflicting backlash upon Gu You.

Gu You tightly clutched his right arm, slowly raised it, and pointed with one finger.

A faint purple ray shot toward Yue Zi. It looked fragile, but once it touched anything, everything would collapse.

Yue Zi naturally sensed the power within it, and her expression changed drastically. Just as she was about to teleport through space-time and flee, she suddenly realized that the surrounding space-time had been sealed.

Who was it?!

It could not have been something done by the remaining Jiang Xing and the others. Soul Douluo-level people did not possess the power to seal space.

"Kid! Run, now! I'm giving her a big present!!" Jiang Xing shouted. A missile brimming with a destructive aura flew toward Yue Zi.

Gu You's expression shifted slightly when he saw it. There was something wrong with that missile. Its aura was terrifying. He had to get to a safe distance.

But if he did that, Yue Zi would definitely be able to evade it. Gu You made up his mind. "The cause of another day, the result of today. World! I return it to you!!"

Gu You charged at Yue Zi. While she was still stunned, he grabbed all four of her limbs and used the greatest strength of his life.

"Madman!" Jiang Xing stared blankly at what Gu You was doing.

I actually can't even compare to a child.

He laughed bitterly at himself. He could clearly have sacrificed his life to severely injure Yue Zi, but he had truly been afraid. Yet he had not been afraid either. After all, the moment he launched the missile, he had already prepared himself to be reduced to ashes beneath that Level 8 Armored Destruction-class Soul Cannon Shell.

"Let go! Don't you care about your life? We can negotiate. I can even fulfill the contract. Is it truly worth it for you and me to die together?" Yue Zi struggled as she spoke.

"Dying with you definitely isn't worth it, but... what am I to this world? Besides, I don't believe I'll be buried here today." Gu You spoke lightly, utterly calm.

"Madmen! A bunch of madmen!!" Yue Zi broke down.

The missile struck. The Destruction Ray struck...

A rising fireball burned away the earth. Everything was being destroyed, every object vanishing completely. Shockwaves spread into the distance without the slightest fear, leaving only a heavy elegy. The snowfield melted, water vaporized, and it became like a desert, no longer possessing its former splendor.

A fire cloud a thousand meters high...

"What happened to me?" Jiang Xing silently stared at his hands. Then he suddenly turned, shock filling his heart. "G-General!"

Qiong Shiyu nodded, his expression extremely grim. "I'll deal with you later. You issued reckless commands without knowing the enemy's situation! How many people died? How many people who should have survived, who should have enjoyed the honor of being soldiers, died?!"

"I was wrong!" Tears rolled down Jiang Xing's aged face as he dropped to his knees.

"You... stand up! What use is admitting you were wrong?! They're dead. Their bodies can't even be found. Why were they loyal to you? Because you were their commander. Soldiers bear military orders and had no choice but to obey! And here you are crying. Can they rest in peace below the Yellow Springs? Can their spirits in heaven rest in peace watching you like this? Go back and accept your punishment. This is not the time!" Qiong Shiyu said furiously.

"Yes!" Jiang Xing rose to his feet. No matter how severe the punishment this time, he would accept it.

Within the fire cloud, a faint purple light flickered. A trace of surprise appeared in Qiong Shiyu's eyes before fading again. "Isn't this trial too risky?" He looked toward the sky and slowly spoke to the empty air...

"Am I dead? So they were right. There really isn't any feeling at all." The air around him was scorching, but then a thread of coolness came through.

"You're dead? This king does not agree!"
