"Everything all right?"

At Zhen Hua's question, a flicker of panic flashed through Mu Ye's sinister eyes. He hurriedly activated the shielding Soul Tool and a Soul Power barrier.

He sent a Voice Transmission with his Spiritual Power. "Are you crazy?!"

"Heh." Zhen Hua merely chuckled softly and stopped Mu Ye's frantic movements.

"Don't rush. Rushing won't help."

"If he wants to hear our conversation, even a Level Nine Shielding Soul Guidance Device and Spiritual Power will be useless. He'll still know."

"Look, after all this time, Di Tian hasn't noticed our unusual behavior, has he?"

Seeing that Di Tian truly had not appeared, and that the Seven-Colored Little Worms that had entered their bodies had not been controlled by Di Tian to torture them, Mu Ye finally relaxed.

But immediately afterward, another question rose in his heart.

As if he knew what Mu Ye was wondering, Zhen Hua answered directly before he could ask:

"When forging simple mecha components, I can still spare a little attention to observe the outside world."

"At fixed intervals, Di Tian enters a state of partial seclusion. I don't know what he does during it, but as long as we don't leave the Forging Masters Association Headquarters, he won't notice us."

"Today was the first test. It seems my conclusion was correct."

Looking at Zhen Hua's crazed expression, Mu Ye even felt a little self-pity, lamenting his own weakness in submitting to the powerful Di Tian.

But under the other man's provocation, a trace of Mu Ye's old fierceness resurfaced, drawing out a hint of madness.

"Don't worry. It was prepared long ago."

"Di Tian is just a soul beast. What does he know about battle armor and mechas?"

"The Curse Array is engraved inside the battle armor and mecha. The life ripples emanating from the Gold of Life are enough to conceal the Curse Array within them so no one will notice it."

Though this was something they had done in madness, it was also a helpless measure.

Di Tian was simply too powerful. No little trick or obstacle could have any effect on him.

They could only place their hopes on those who came after them. If someone in the future could shatter Di Tian's battle armor and mecha, it would mean that person possessed the ability to injure Di Tian. The Curse Array hidden within the battle armor and mecha would then be triggered by the damage and gaps, erupting to become the final straw that crushed Di Tian.

Just as they finished their exchange and began eating in slightly better spirits, Di Tian completed another stimulation and induction of the Dragon God Bloodline, emerging from his state of partial seclusion.

"You two seem to be in good spirits. Has the Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha that suit me been forged?"

Mu Ye still turned his head away, ignoring him completely.

Zhen Hua, on the other hand, extended a hand in a gesture of invitation, though he did not speak personally.

Seeing this, Di Tian did not waste words with them. Following the direction of Zhen Hua's hand, he saw a set of Four-Word Battle Armor and a God-level Mecha displayed before him.

The Four-Word Battle Armor was primarily black, accented by flowing golden lines. Its overall appearance was black and gold. A pair of dragon wings spread from its back, while a pair of Dragon Horns formed the headpiece in place of a battle armor helmet.

The God-level Mecha was a standard bright crimson. Starting from its feet, dark patterns ran across its various components.

However, in order to be worn together with the Four-Word Battle Armor, it had fewer mecha components than an ordinary God-level Mecha. The connection between its ankle joints and feet, for instance, was an integrated structure rather than separate pieces.

Golden light glittered in Di Tian's eyes.

Armor! Mechas! The eternal romance of men!

In his inner world, a Chibi Dragon Person seemed to be already itching to try them on.

"Both Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mechas are known as alternative life forms. If they are upgraded step by step from One-Word Battle Armor and Yellow-Rank Mechas, they can naturally move according to one's thoughts. But directly wearing Four-Word Battle Armor and a God-level Mecha requires a bloodline-binding process, allowing the two life forms to establish a connection."

Zhen Hua spoke from behind him, and even Mu Ye had come over.

Setting aside their irreconcilable hostility, watching a soul beast wear battle armor and a mecha was something unprecedented since the dawn of time.

Not to mention that this was the fusion of Di Tian, the continent's number one Ferocious Beast, with humanity's finest Soul Tools—a Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha. It was enough to draw anyone's curious gaze.

Di Tian nodded to show that he understood.

As he approached, however, he did not soak the battle armor and mecha with blood from his fingertips like an ordinary person would.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Each heartbeat boomed like thunderous drums, deafening and earth-shaking.

A spherical crystal flew out from Di Tian's chest. Gold and silver flowed within it, while a ring of nine-colored light drifted around its outer surface. Fresh blood circulated endlessly inside, refracting seven-colored radiance.

With a flick of his finger, Di Tian sent the blood flying. It drew out long, fine strands of seven-colored blood that traveled across the Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha according to Di Tian's body map.

The next instant, the battle armor and mecha seemed like two living beings that had known Di Tian for ages, letting out joyful hums.

The battle armor moved first. In a flash of black and gold, black-gold points of light appeared on his forehead, shoulders, chest, elbows, wrists, palms, waist, hips, and soles.

Starting from those black-gold points, strands of golden light instantly stretched outward and converged into magnificent golden patterns.

The pattern on his forehead took shape first. At either end of its center, a jet-black Dragon Horn that gleamed with dark light emerged.

From the lower ends of the two Dragon Horns, magnificent patterns drooped and extended downward, merging with the battle armor below.

Beginning at his neck, streamlined black armor covered him downward, streaked with golden patterns. By the time the golden patterns had fully formed, Di Tian's body was completely wrapped in black armor.

Clang—

The battle armor's dragon wings, poised to strike, suddenly unfurled. Each wing spread more than a zhang, its membrane filled with vivid crimson, like exposed scarlet flesh without skin—or like a flowing crimson cloak draped behind him.

Immediately afterward, the God-level Mecha transformed into a streak of red light and covered Di Tian's body.

More precisely, it covered the battle armor. The Battle Armor Master and Mecha Master worked in tandem; the so-called mecha was more like battle armor for the Four-Word Battle Armor.

Only in this way could the battle armor and mecha be used simultaneously.

"Ah..."

"He succeeded."

Mu Ye's sigh rang out. He was not merely lamenting that humanity's enemy had grown even stronger.

He was also sighing for himself. He had suffered so much to achieve the balance between the Four-Word Battle Armor and God-level Mecha, even delaying his cultivation and forever losing his chance to advance to Super Douluo.

Yet Di Tian had accomplished it in barely half a year. The blow was immense.

"With materials as exceptional as those used in Di Tian's battle armor and mecha, once fully formed, they can probably be called the strongest battle armor and mecha in history."

"No!"

Zhen Hua's sudden denial left Mu Ye confused.

"Is there something even better?"

"No. I mean Di Tian's aura is still rising. That's very wrong!"
