The Jingyang Mountain Range are a continuous range of peaks and ancient trees reaching for the sky. This is one of the most extensive gathering places for Soul Beast in the eastern part of the Sun Moon Continent. An ancient and majestic Dragon Might's might permeates the depths of the mountains, making ordinary Soul Beast dare not approach the Core Zone.

Today, this tranquility has been shattered.

A streak of Purple-Gold light tore through the sky, appearing silently above the main peak of the Jingyang Mountain Range. The light faded, revealing Yu Yuanchen's tall and imposing figure.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze calmly looking down at the misty valley below, where a colossal creature that had brought a thousand years of nightmares to the Human Race of the Sun Moon Continent lay dormant.

He made no attempt to conceal his aura. In an instant, a terrifying Dragon Might, as vast as a starry sea, as noble as an emperor, and as fierce as Heavenly Tribulation, descended with a tremendous force, enveloping the entire Core Zone Jingyang Mountain Range!

The thousands of Soul Beast in the mountains, regardless of their Cultivation Level level, all prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling. The fear originating from the depths of their blood made them, who were originally ferocious, dare not bare their teeth at Yu Yuanchen.

"Roar--!!!"

Deep within the mountains, from the enormous, hollowed-out Dragon Nest, a Dragon Roar of shock and rage suddenly erupted! The Dragon Roar carried with it disbelief and a hint of... barely perceptible panic!

Rumble!

The earth trembled, and rocks tumbled down! A huge silver shadow tore through the rock strata above the nest and shot into the sky!

Under the sunlight, it was a colossal creature over two hundred meters long! Its entire body was covered with palm-sized, oval-shaped silver dragon scales, which reflected a cold and noble luster in the sunlight.

The enormous dragon head was ferocious and majestic, its huge silver eyes filled with vigilance and horror. Its broad wings spread out, blotting out the sky and radiating a suffocating pressure.

It was none other than the overlord who had ruled this place for thousands of years— the Silver Dragon, with over 300,000 years of Cultivation Level!

However, at this moment, this powerful Dragon Clan king appeared unusually uneasy. Its enormous silver pupils were fixed on the tiny figure in the air, its dragon eyes filled with disbelief and fear!

Wow! Absolutely amazing!

The Dragon Might's might emanating from the opponent was of such a high level and purity that it subtly surpassed that of the true Silver Dragon! The Purple-Gold lightning aura, carrying a Destruction will akin to divine punishment, made its very soul tremble!

Even more terrifying is that beneath the opponent's seemingly calm aura lies a power as unfathomable as an abyss! This is an existence that it absolutely cannot contend with!

"Human! Who are you?!" the Silver Dragon Mental Roar, its voice laced with a hint of bravado but underlying fear. It sensed an unprecedented threat of death emanating from the human before it! The other's killing intent was undisguised!

Almost the instant it saw Yu Yuanchen, the Silver Dragon made a decision—to flee! Without hesitation, it fled! Its massive dragon wings flapped violently, its body flashing with silver light, as it was about to tear through space and escape to what it believed was the only place that could offer refuge— the Evil Spirit Forest!

"Trying to leave?" Yu Yuanchen's lips curled into a faint smile, as if he had already anticipated its reaction. He slowly raised his right hand and pressed it forward.

"Heavenly Tribulation Sacred Dragon Domain, open!"

Buzz--!

Centered on Yu Yuanchen, a Purple-Gold Thunder Prison covering an area of dozens of miles instantly unfolded! Within the domain, the world lost its color, with only endless thunder raging!

Countless Purple-Gold Chains of Order weaved and intertwined in the void, forming a vast net! Furthermore, a profound spatial fluctuation spread out, completely sealing and solidifying the space in this area!

Although he was confident that he could overpower the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord, there was no need to confront the Evil Emperor if he could.

As long as the Silver Dragon is killed first, creating a fait accompli, given the nature of the Evil Emperor in the original work, he wouldn't cause trouble for three Titled Douluo over a dead Silver Dragon. It's just that, just in case, the worst-case scenario needs to be considered.

The spatial silver light erupting from the Silver Dragon's body flickered violently a few times as if it had collided with an invisible barrier, and then abruptly went out! Its all-out spatial traversal had failed!

"Spatial lockdown?! How is this possible?!" The Silver Dragon roared in terror, its eyes filled with despair. Its greatest trump card had been so easily broken by its opponent!

"Your spatial skills are too crude." Yu Yuanchen's voice was calm and unwavering, like a pronouncement. Although he had not delved deeply into the Space Law contained within the Hell Gate over the years, it was more than enough to seal off the area around this Silver Dragon, which was not a specialist in space.

It turns out that this guy wasn't born Silver Dragon. In his early days, he was just an ice Ice-Wind Sub-Dragon with dual Ice-Wind and wind attributes. Although his bloodline was quite extraordinary, his future potential was at most that of an ordinary True Dragon.

However, he later obtained a great opportunity to acquire a portion of the Silver Dragon bloodline power, and after tens of thousands of years of arduous cultivation, his bloodline sublimated and truly evolved into Silver Dragon. But ultimately, he was somewhat lacking in innate qualities and could not be considered a pure Silver Dragon. In terms of quality, he could only sit at the same table as ordinary Light/Dark/ Thunder Sacred Dragon.

Of the seven elements, only Ice-Wind have reached Quasi-Ultimate Attribute levels. The other five elements are only slightly better due to the affinity with the Silver Dragon bloodline, but their mastery is quite average.

Even so, with only a little over 300,000 years of Cultivation Level, it was enough to easily defeat a level 97 Super Douluo. However, when facing Yu Yuanchen, its strength was insignificant, and its clumsy spatial manipulation skills were unable to break through the sealed space and escape.

With its escape route cut off, a glint of madness flashed in the Silver Dragon's eyes. It knew that today was a fight to the death!

"Roar! Human, you have gone too far in bullying the dragon! I, the king, will fight you to the death!" The Silver Dragon roared, its massive body bursting with dazzling silver light, and extreme cold and violent gales instantly condensed! It opened its mouth and spewed out a Destruction dragon breath mixed with ice crystals and wind blades, freezing and tearing apart the space in its path!

This is a combined attack of ice and wind attributes, cultivated over hundreds of thousands of years, and its power is enough to severely injure or even kill an ordinary Super Douluo!

Faced with this terrifying dragon breath, powerful enough to Ice Seal mountains and rivers and tear the earth apart, Yu Yuanchen merely glanced at it indifferently. He didn't even use his Martial Soul Avatar; he simply pointed forward with his fingers like a sword.

"Break."

A Purple-Gold lightning, condensed to its extreme and seemingly composed of the most primordial Thunder Law, shot out from his fingertips. The lightning was small, yet it contained a world-destroying aura, striking the massive Ice-Wind dragon's breath with pinpoint accuracy despite being launched later!

Laugh--!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, no ripples from the clash of energy. The seemingly terrifying dragon breath, upon contact with the Purple-Gold lightning, melted and disintegrated silently, like ice and snow under the sun, transforming into the purest Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, vanishing without a trace!

"What?!" The Silver Dragon's enormous eyes nearly popped out of their sockets! Its all-out attack had been so easily neutralized by its opponent?! The difference in strength was so great that it felt despair!

"Ice-Sealing Dragon Domain!" The Silver Dragon roared in frustration, unleashing its domain. Endless icy power spread, attempting to freeze Yu Yuanchen along with his Thunder Prison Domain!

However, as soon as its icy domain unfolded and touched the Purple-Gold Heavenly Tribulation Sacred Dragon Domain, it was as if it had encountered its nemesis. The Extreme Yang and Extreme Hardness and Thunder Power, containing the will of heavenly punishment, caused the ice domain to collapse and melt rapidly upon contact, unable to penetrate the Thunder Prison even slightly!

"Wind Erosion of the World!" The Silver Dragon changed its move again, manipulating the winds of heaven and earth to form countless wind blades that tore everything apart, slashing towards Yu Yuanchen from all directions!

Yu Yuanchen remained motionless, and a faint Purple-Gold halo naturally appeared around him. Those wind blades that were powerful enough to cut through gold and jade and tear apart the defenses of Soul Sage shattered and dissipated without even causing a ripple when they struck the halo!

Absolute overwhelming strength!

All of the Silver Dragon's attacks seemed so pale and powerless in front of Yu Yuanchen, like the playfulness of children.

Its Cultivation Level of over 300,000 years was simply no match for a Titled Douluo was in perfect condition, had profound foundations, and possessed God Position Fragments!

"Too weak." Yu Yuanchen shook his head slightly, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

He joined his hands together like claws and slashed through the air.

"Dragon Emperor Claw."

A gigantic Purple-Gold Dragon Claw, tens of meters long and constructed from a massive amount of Thunder Power, suddenly appeared and instantly tore off one of the Silver Dragon dragon's wings!

Laugh--!

A burst of silver light! A gigantic Silver Dragon wing, severed at the root, plummeted from the sky, spraying blood everywhere!

"Awooo--!" The Silver Dragon let out a shrill howl. Having lost one wing, it could no longer maintain flight, and its massive body plummeted to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

Yu Yuanchen's figure flashed, appearing atop the falling Silver Dragon head. His giant Dragon Claw "gently" slammed down, carrying an extremely terrifying force.

Silver Dragon felt an irresistible force coursing through his entire body, every bone and meridian groaning in agony from the unbearable strain!

It desperately channeled its Soul Power, mobilizing the power of elements such as ice, wind, and even earth and fire in an attempt to resist, but in the face of Yu Yuanchen's absolute power, all its struggles seemed so pale and laughable!

"It's over."

Yu Yuanchen no longer held back. His eyes blazed with Purple-Gold divine light, and on his right fist, a complex mark that seemed to be composed of countless Thunder Runes condensed— the Destruction Thunder Seal!

"Town!"

The Thunder Seal flew out of his hand, growing larger with the wind until it became the size of a small mountain. Carrying the supreme Divine Might to suppress all heavens and judge all things, it was fiercely imprinted on the head of the Silver Dragon!

Boom--!!!!

An indescribable, terrifying energy erupted within the Silver Dragon's skull! Its silver dragon eyes instantly lost all their luster, filled with terror and resentment. The hard skull shattered inch by inch like porcelain, and the immense Life Aura receded rapidly like a tide.

Rumble--!!!

The earth shook violently! Smoke and dust billowed into the sky!

The Silver Dragon, which dominated the Jingyang Mountain Range for tens of thousands of years and brought endless suffering to the Human Race on the Sun Moon Continent, has fallen!

A crimson Soul Ring, radiating astonishing energy fluctuations, slowly rose from the Silver Dragon's corpse.

On the Soul Ring are three clear golden lines, indicating its 300,000 years of Ferocious Beast Cultivation Level. However, there is a faint silver luster flowing at the edges of the lines, which looks somewhat strange and seems to be related to its Silver Dragon bloodline.

Yu Yuanchen landed gracefully, standing beside the enormous head of the Silver Dragon. He pointed his fingers like knives, easily breaking through the hard skull, and took out a Head Soul Bone that shimmered with silver light and emitted a powerful spiritual fluctuation, as well as a silver Dragon Pill the size of a dragon's eye, containing pure Dragon Essence and the Life Origin.

"A 300,000-year-old Silver Dragon Spirit Bone and Dragon Pill —these are indeed rare finds." Yu Yuanchen nodded slightly. This Spirit Bone is of extremely high quality, especially suitable for Soul Master with Mental Attribute or Dragon Martial Soul. And this Dragon Pill has pure energy, making it a treasure for tempering the physical body and improving Cultivation Level.

He looked at the 300,000-year Soul Ring in the air, not intending to let it dissipate, but his Soul Ring Configuration had already reached its limit.

"Gathering is also scattering, Return to Origin." Yu Yuanchen formed hand seals, drawing upon the power of the Thunder God Position Fragment that had been initially repaired within his body to drive the Spirit Domain Return to Origin.

A profound fluctuation of laws enveloped the 300,000-year-old Soul Ring. Under his control, the Soul Ring began to tremble violently, and then, as if peeled away by an invisible hand, it transformed into the purest primordial energy, flowing into Yu Yuanchen's own Soul Ring like rivers flowing into the sea.

His original Soul Ring Configuration was five black, three red, and one orange-gold. After absorbing part of the essence of this 300,000-year Soul Ring, his Soul Ring configuration became: red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, orange-gold!

Yu Yuanchen had already mastered this method, but ordinary Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring offered him negligible improvement, and hunting high- Cultivation Level Soul Beast for cultivation was not easy. Furthermore, given Yu Yuanchen's current strength, the age of the Soul Ring was not very meaningful, and there was no need to slaughter high-age Soul Beast for a little insignificant improvement. However, since no one could absorb this Silver Dragon Soul Ring, it was a good opportunity to make use of it.

After doing all this, Yu Yuanchen's gaze swept towards the several trembling, enormous auras deep within the mountains—those were the other hundred-thousand-year-old Beast King of the Jingyang Mountain Range.

He didn't kill them, but merely released a chilling killing intent as a warning, sending a mental message: "Control your subordinates, behave yourselves, and you may live. Otherwise, this is the fate of the Silver Dragon."

The beast Beast King were already terrified. Feeling Yu Yuanchen's pressure, which was even more terrifying than the Silver Dragon, they hurriedly sent out mental waves of submission.

Yu Yuanchen ignored it, waved his hand and put the huge corpse of the Silver Dragon into a large Storage Soul Tool he had taken from the Purple Blazing Tribe. His figure transformed into a stream of light and returned to Purple Blazing Dragon City.

Just as the Silver Dragon Yu Yuanchen and its Life Force was completely extinguished...

In the central part of the Sun Moon Continent, in the deepest part of that vast forest shrouded in a strange Spiritual Power and perpetually shrouded in grayish-white mist— the Evil Spirit Forest.

A pair of enormous, eerie vertical pupils, each over a hundred meters in diameter, suddenly opened in the endless darkness! Within those pupils lay chaos, evil, and a hint of startled rage!

"Hmm? The aura of that useless Silver Dragon... has disappeared?" A deep, eerily magnetic mental thought echoed in the abyss. "Dead? Hmph! Useless thing! Two thousand years ago, he was chased by a few ants, and I, the Emperor, had to personally intervene to save his life. The 'reward' he promised me hasn't been paid yet, and he's already dead!"

This slumbering being is none other than the true ruler of the Evil Spirit Forest, a super Ferocious Beast with Cultivation Level — the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord!

Its immense Spiritual Power surged forth like a tidal wave, traversing endless space and sweeping towards the Jingyang Mountain Range. It wanted to see which fool dared to kill its "pre-selected" servant.

However, when its Spiritual Power tentacles extended beyond the Evil Spirit Forest, they suddenly stopped!

It sensed three powerful auras! One was from the direction of the Jingyang Mountain Range, carrying the magnificent divine Divine Might and pure Dragon Might that had not yet fully subsided after the slaying of the Silver Dragon; the other two were located in the direction of the Scorching Volcano Cluster and the Dark Radiance Forest, one holy and radiant, the other domineering and fierce!

These three auras were all incredibly powerful! Especially the one from the Jingyang Mountain Range, whose energy level was in no way inferior to its peak! Moreover, all three auras contained something that it both utterly loathed and secretly yearned for— Divinity! They were the inheritors of God Position!

"Titled Douluo? Three of them? And they even Divinity?!" The Evil Eye Tyrant Lord's mental fluctuations surged violently, filled with shock, jealousy, and a hint of apprehension. "When did such figures appear on the Sun Moon Continent? Did they come from overseas?"

It tried to concentrate its Spiritual Power more thoroughly, wanting to investigate more carefully, scanning the three auras.

The next moment, three powerful wills responded!

From the direction of the Jingyang Mountain Range, a fierce Divine Might, imbued with the Destruction will of Heavenly Tribulation and seemingly capable of judging souls, pierced straight towards them like a drawn sword!

From the direction of the Scorching Volcano Cluster and the Dark Radiance Forest, a holy and radiant will of light, Purification everything, and a domineering and boundless terrifying battle intent, suppressing all wastelands, also rose simultaneously!

The three powerful intentions were like three towering mountains, carrying a clear warning!

The Spiritual Power tentacles of the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord slowly retracted. In its enormous vertical pupil, anger and greed intertwined, but even more so, there was a calm that came from weighing the pros and cons. There's an old saying, "The one who rushes through Xi Xi fog is Wei Junjie."

If it were a one-on-one fight, it was confident that it would not fear any of them. But facing three at the same time, especially the one who killed the Silver Dragon whose aura was no weaker than its own, and the other two were also extremely troublesome... If a real fight broke out, it would surely die, and it might not even be able to achieve a fight to the death, causing its hundreds of thousands of years of Cultivation Level go to waste.

More importantly, the other party is Godhood Inheritance, and there may be a true god standing behind them! As for it, although it thinks highly of itself, it is ultimately Soul Beast, Path to Godhood is extremely difficult.

To provoke three fully-fledged Titled Douluo and Godhood Inheritance simultaneously for a dead Silver Dragon that hasn't even been "paid" yet? This deal doesn't seem worthwhile at all.

"Hmph! Despicable humans!" The Evil Eye Tyrant Lord let out a resentful mental snort, his enormous vertical pupils slowly closing, and the terrifying aura around him gradually receding.

It chose to lie low. Soul Beast have long Life; it has plenty of time to wait. Its most important task at present is to heal the wounds inflicted by its battle with Di Tian and to find an opportunity to become a god. As for the death of the Silver Dragon... it can only be considered a failed investment; it has to accept its loss.

The Evil Spirit Forest returned to its usual deathly silence, as if nothing had ever happened.

Purple Blazing Dragon City.

Yu Yuanchen appeared silently in the side hall. Ye Zhilan, Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen and others who had been waiting there immediately came forward to greet him.

"Brother Yuanchen."

"Brother Yu!"

"Old Yu, how is it?"

Yu Yuanchen smiled slightly, nodded, and then turned his gaze towards the Evil Spirit Forest, saying calmly, "The Silver Dragon has been slain. Also, that one over there has been 'greeted' as well."

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen exchanged a smile. They had naturally also sensed the probing mental scan from the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord and its subsequent retreat.

"Looks like he knows what's good for him." Tang Chen grinned.

"That's good, it avoids an unnecessary dispute." Qian Daoliu nodded slightly.

At this moment, Xu Yu, Zhao Hui, and Kong Ze also rushed over, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation. When they saw the Silver Dragon corpse at Yu Yuanchen's feet, which, even though it had shrunk in size, still exuded a faint Dragon Might's might, the three of them trembled violently, their eyes instantly filled with wild joy and indescribable excitement, and even tears welled up in their eyes!

"He's... he's really dead! This beast... he's finally been brought to justice!" Zhao Hui's voice trembled, his tiger-like eyes filled with tears.

"A thousand-year-old blood feud... has been avenged today! Heaven has eyes!" Xu Yu, tears streaming down his face, bowed deeply to Yu Yuanchen.

"The Human Race the Sun Moon Continent... finally sees hope!" Kong Ze was also extremely excited.

Yu Yuanchen raised his hand in a gesture of support. "Please rise, three leaders. The Silver Dragon is dead. Next, we must unite our forces, wipe out the remaining remnants, and truly usher in an era belonging to the Human Race."

He glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Pass down the order: the news of Silver Dragon's demise can be appropriately publicized to boost morale."

At the same time, the integration of the Three Great Tribes and the recruitment of other tribes must be accelerated. Once the overall situation is largely settled, it will be time for us to completely settle accounts with the remaining Soul Beast forces on this continent!

"Yes! We will obey Your Majesty's command!" Xu Yu and the other two responded with a resounding roar, their voices filled with unprecedented enthusiasm and hope.
