Sunset Longbow

With Beirut present, Fang Yun and Dylin naturally wouldn't start fighting directly in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

However, the Magical Beast Mountain Range was, after all, Dylin's "old home," and he couldn't just hand it over to Fang Yun like that. Once he confirmed that Beirut wouldn't throw him back into the Plane Prison, he agreed to a duel with Fang Yun.

"Let's head to the South Sea."

Beirut was quite in favor of a battle between the two. "The South Sea is vast enough for you to fight. When the time comes, whoever wins will decide the ownership of the Magical Beast Mountain Range."

The Yulan Continent had been too boring for the past few thousand years; even battles between Saint-level experts were rare. Although things had started to get interesting after the life from Blue Star began to descend, it still wasn't enough.

"Agreed."

Fang Yun smiled; he naturally wouldn't refuse.

He didn't lack power right now, but he was severely lacking in combat experience. Being able to fight a powerhouse of similar strength would be of great help to him.

Dylin's true form was a Ni Suan, also known as a Heaven Swallowing Beast, an incredibly formidable divine beast. With his own innate divine ability, he was definitely among the top tier of powerhouses at his level.

Otherwise, an ordinary Lowgod wouldn't be able to survive alone in the Plane Prison. The fact that Dylin could survive on his own and protect his children, even while hiding from place to place, was proof enough of his strength.

If Fang Yun didn't expose his Willpower, even relying on his fusion of the elemental laws of wind and the space of wind to become a god, he probably wouldn't be much stronger than Dylin. It was very likely he would even be inferior to Dylin.

However, he had obtained a Highgod-level longbow in the Sunset Mountain Range, which was a significant boost to the external strength of his wind-element divine clone.

As for their divine power, Fang Yun had only recently become a god and hadn't accumulated much. But likewise, Dylin had spent five thousand years in the Plane Prison, consuming far more divine power than he had previously accumulated, so he naturally didn't dare to squander it recklessly.

Seeing Fang Yun so confident, Beirut stroked his little mustache, ready to watch the show. "In that case, let's head to the South Sea."

Following that, the three of them flew directly toward the South Sea.

As for Dylin's three children, they were temporarily left behind in the Mist Valley.

"I hope Father wins."

One of the little kittens spoke up.

"Don't worry, Father won't lose!"

The other two kittens said with absolute certainty.

Ever since life from Blue Star began to descend "frequently," the region of the South Sea had started to become bustling. Of course, this was only a small area of the South Sea near the continent, not even one ten-thousandth of the entire sea.

One had to know that the South Sea was nearly boundless. Aside from the teleportation arrays leading to Blue Star, there were vast oceanic regions beyond. It contained many powerful magical beasts; if one were to count the number of magical beasts, even the Magical Beast Mountain Range couldn't compare to this place.

Therefore, the South Sea was perfectly suited as a battlefield for Fang Yun and Dylin.

The three of them did not hide their presence, and as they passed through the O'Brien Empire, they were naturally tracked by the War God.

"Lord Beirut!"

The War God flew out immediately.

He had heard of Fang Yun but had never met him. As for Dylin, he had never even heard of him, as Dylin had already been imprisoned in the Plane Prison by the time he became a god.

"O'Brien, perfect. Come along with us."

Beirut said with a smile, "It's been a long time since things were this lively."

Rather than saying they were accidentally discovered by O'Brien, it would be more accurate to say that Beirut had intentionally let O'Brien find them. Otherwise, the three of them could have easily flown across the Holy Union and the Dark Alliance without ever passing through the O'Brien Empire.

At this moment, O'Brien was filled with shock.

Aside from the Plane Guardian Hodan, he had always assumed that the only god-level beings on the Yulan Continent were Lord Beirut and the High Priest, with the addition of Fang Yun who had just become a god. But now, a god-level being he didn't recognize had clearly appeared!

"Yes."

O'Brien didn't know what they were going to do, but he obeyed obediently.

Afterward, the group coincidentally arrived at the Temple of Life, and the High Priest joined them as well.

The High Priest naturally recognized Dylin and was secretly surprised. Could it be that Lord Beirut had released Dylin? This Dylin was truly lucky.

Just as the High Priest was feeling surprised, O'Brien sent a secret voice transmission, "Catherine, do you know these two?"

He had some guesses about Fang Yun's identity, but he mainly didn't know who Dylin was.

The High Priest was silent for a moment, then replied via voice transmission, "That demonic-looking youth with a vertical scar on his forehead is Dylin, a god-level powerhouse who was imprisoned in the Plane Prison by Lord Beirut five thousand years ago."

"As for the other one, he is likely Fang Yun from the South Sea."

Five thousand years ago, Plane Prison? Dylin?

O'Brien grew more solemn.

This meant that Dylin's strength was likely greater than his own. As for Fang Yun, he didn't pay much attention; even if he had become a god on his own, how strong could someone who had just become a god be?

Soon, the five of them flew into the South Sea region.

"Let's stop here."

Beirut halted, looked at Fang Yun and Dylin, and said with a smile, "This is deep enough into the South Sea; it's enough for you to go all out."

"Lord Beirut, this..."

The High Priest spoke cautiously.

Neither she nor O'Brien knew what was happening.

Beirut chuckled, acting as if he had just realized something, and said with a grin, "Oh, you should recognize Dylin. As for the other one, he is Fang Yun, who became a god a while ago. By the way, he came from Blue Star."

The High Priest and the War God both knew of Blue Star, so they were not surprised by Fang Yun's origins.

Dylin, however, was somewhat puzzled. Blue Star?

Five thousand years ago, he had never heard of any place called Blue Star on the Yulan Continent. But now was not the time to dwell on that.

"The battle between these two can be considered a decision on the ownership of the Magical Beast Mountain Range."

Beirut smiled as he briefly explained the situation, then looked at the High Priest and O'Brien, saying, "You two can serve as witnesses."

Upon hearing this, O'Brien and the High Priest finally realized that Fang Yun was going to fight Dylin!

Battles between Deity-level powerhouses had not occurred since five thousand years ago.

However, both of them understood in their hearts that regardless of who won or lost, the situation on the Yulan Continent would be completely altered.

"Alright, you may begin."

Beirut looked at Fang Yun and Dylin and said directly.

Fang Yun smiled, then flew off into the distance first, the divine longbow he had obtained earlier appearing in his hand.

Since he was only using the power of his wind-style lowgod clone, Fang Yun had to use the longbow if he wanted to contend with Dylin.

Fang Yun did not know much about the longbow. However, he could tell it was a high-quality highgod artifact with a strong aura of life; its previous owner must have been a powerhouse who followed the Life Law.

In the divine planes, very few people used longbows as weapons. Having read the original work thoroughly, Fang Yun had not discovered any powerhouses who used a longbow.

Therefore, if he wanted to figure out the origin of the longbow, he would have to rely on himself. Still, he wasn't entirely without a lead; a powerhouse of the Life Law who used a longbow might have some connection to the Elf race of the Life God Realm.

After all, elves were all skilled with the longbow.

He could go to the Life God Realm to take a look if he had the chance in the future.

Seeing the longbow in Fang Yun's hand, the expressions of the High Priest and Dylin turned to shock instantly. "The Sunset Longbow!"

Both of them had lived through the cataclysmic war ten thousand years ago, when countless powerhouses from other planes had descended, including innumerable Deity-level beings. There were even super-powerhouses among them whose mere presence made them afraid to resist.

During that period, they could only hide far away, not daring to show their faces for fear of being killed.

Even so, they had heard of those super-powerhouses. The most famous, naturally, was the Purple Blood Demon.

But besides the Purple Blood Demon, there were many other terrifying existences. Among them was the Sunset Elf!

Regarding this Sunset Elf, they only knew she was a super-powerhouse from the Life God Realm, one of the four supreme planes, and an existence no weaker than the Purple Blood Demon; they knew nothing else.

This Sunset Longbow was the weapon of the Sunset Elf.

Everyone on the Yulan Continent now assumed the name of the Sunset Mountain Range came from Sunset Peak. However, the High Priest and Dylin knew very well that the true reason the Sunset Mountain Range was so named was because of this Sunset Elf.

Legend had it that whenever this Sunset Elf drew her bow, a deity would inevitably fall. The number of deities who died by her hand was no less than those killed by the Purple Blood Demon.

As for Sunset Peak, it was rumored to be the place where this Sunset Elf finally fell. Of course, they did not know if that was true.

Ever since the Sunset Elf fell and Lord Beirut had captured and purged all the Deity-level beings on the Yulan Continent, the Sunset Longbow had vanished without a trace. They had not expected it to have fallen into the hands of Fang Yun!

The Sunset Longbow?

O'Brien frowned slightly upon hearing their words.

He also turned his attention to the longbow in Fang Yun's hand, secretly guessing that this must be a formidable artifact from ten thousand years ago. Otherwise, the two of them would not have reacted this way.

This Fang Yun actually possesses the Sunset Longbow.

Dylin's expression turned somewhat ugly.

A powerful artifact provided a massive boost to one's strength. Among powerhouses of equal strength, possessing a formidable weapon allowed one to kill the opponent easily.

Not to mention that this Sunset Longbow was no ordinary artifact.

He was confident that he was not weaker than Fang Yun, perhaps even stronger. But if Fang Yun had this longbow as a weapon, he truly could not guarantee that he would definitely defeat Fang Yun.

At this moment, a hint of retreat had already sprouted in Dylin's heart.

After all, compared to the Magical Beast Mountain Range, he valued his own life more.

I will post two chapters a day for the next two days. I might release it on the first of the month, so I need to prepare some drafts.
