"Very well. Fate is fate! Even if I die today, I'll take a chunk out of you first! Old Fire, use our ultimate move!"
"Understood!"
"Fusion divine skill, Ice Nightmare Flame Dragon Rage!"
As the words fell, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' divine souls began to merge. In the next moment, a hundred-meter-long ice-and-flame dragon appeared out of thin air!
The Destruction God King narrowed his eyes at the ice-and-flame dragon before him.
"Destruction God King, die with us!"
As soon as the words fell, the ice-and-flame dragon charged straight at the Destruction God King.
The Destruction God King showed no fear. "A dying struggle! Third divine skill, Source of Destruction!"
As the words fell, a chaotic phantom slammed into the ice-and-flame dragon!
"Boom!"
Amid the deafening explosion, the ice-and-flame dragon was instantly shattered.
Looking at the vanishing Ice and Fire Twin Dragons, the Destruction God King sneered. "Hmph. A mayfly trying to shake a tree—how laughable!"
After collecting the remains of the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons, the Destruction God King left.
By the spring at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
"It's over?"
While gathering herbs, Yang Ziyuan and the others had felt the whole Sunset Forest trembling from the battle between the two sides.
They had no choice but to stop what they were doing and find a place to watch from.
Just then, he noticed the water in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well rapidly losing its color.
Before long, it had turned clear and transparent!
At that moment, the Destruction God King appeared by the spring.
Seeing him, Yang Ziyuan and the others hurried over.
"Little one, my business here is finished, and I have to return. Before I go, here are two little gifts. Catch!"
With that, the Destruction God King tossed the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons' Soul Bones to Yang Ziyuan.
Yang Ziyuan stared at the Soul Bones before him, stunned.
If his guess was right, these two Soul Bones had to have come from the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings!
After all, the Destruction God King had said that his purpose here was to collect the remains of the survivors of the divine war!
What Yang Ziyuan couldn't understand was why the other man had simply given him two God-level Spirit Bones!
Were these two Soul Bones really so worthless to the Destruction God King?
Or was he trying to help Yang Ziyuan grow stronger as quickly as possible?
Before Yang Ziyuan could ask why, the Destruction God King vanished from sight.
"That guy really is strange."
After muttering to himself, Yang Ziyuan examined the Soul Bones closely.
The moment he looked, his heart began to race.
The Soul Bones in his hands were red and blue. The red one had to have come from the Fire Dragon King; it was a right arm bone. The blue one was a left arm bone.
Both radiated a faint aura of destructive power. Yang Ziyuan was certain that if he absorbed them, he could break through to Soul Elder!
After all, these were God-level Spirit Bones.
Even after enduring the passage of time, the energy within them was still enough to help him break through to Soul Elder.
"Ziyuan, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and absorb them!"
Seeing Yang Ziyuan staring blankly at the Soul Bones, Yang Wuhui urged him anxiously.
Although both of them coveted the Soul Bones, they knew there were some things they simply couldn't claim for themselves.
Besides, they were counting on Yang Ziyuan to lead the Breaking Clan to greatness!
So they could only rein in their greed.
"Oh, right!"
Coming back to his senses, Yang Ziyuan pressed one of the Soul Bones against his arm and began absorbing it.
Meanwhile, Yang Wuhui and Yang Wudi kept busy as well.
After one of them stayed behind to protect Yang Ziyuan, the other began gathering the remaining herbs around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
The Divine Realm.
The moment the Destruction God King took the remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, Asura God abruptly opened his eyes while cultivating.
"Destruction? How did he find that place?"
Before he could figure it out, he realized that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well no longer existed.
"Damn it!"
Just as the Goddess of Life had predicted, he had planned to use that Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to cultivate a new successor.
He had even chosen the candidate!
But now, the resources he'd planned to use to cultivate his successor had been snatched away by the Destruction God King!
How was he supposed to cultivate a successor now?
Furious, Asura God headed for the Temple of Life.
At that moment, the Destruction God King was sharing his good news with the Goddess of Life.
"Life, I'm back!"
"Well? Did you get it?"
"Of course! Do you know who I am?"
With that, the Destruction God King brought out the remains of the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons.
"Excellent, excellent! It seems Asura didn't just conceal that place—he also placed divine power on these two skeletons. That's why they've retained most of their divinity!"
The Goddess of Life's eyes lit up.
"Exactly! Now I have an even better chance of repairing the Scepter of Destruction!"
"Still, don't celebrate too soon. You brought back what you went for, but you've definitely alerted Asura! You'd better think about how you'll deal with him."
"Asura? I didn't report him for hiding the remains of survivors from the divine war. He should be counting his blessings! How dare he come after me?"
A look of disdain crossed the Destruction God King's face.
The Goddess of Life shook her head.
"Heh. You'd better be careful. That man is petty, and your Scepter of Destruction still isn't repaired. You're no match for him yet!"
"Uh, well... Life, you'll help me when the time comes, right?"
After hearing the Goddess of Life's words, the Destruction God King looked awkward. Then he cautiously asked her.
The Goddess of Life smiled faintly. "Heh, even if you're in the wrong this time, I'll still help you. After all, I am your wife."
Her voice grew especially tender as she said the last sentence.
The Destruction God King couldn't help grinning, then burst into laughter.
"Haha, I knew you'd say that!"
Just as the two were laughing together, Asura God suddenly barged into their temple.
The moment he saw the remains of the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons on the ground, he could no longer hold back his fury.
"Destruction, you bastard! You actually went down to the mortal world without permission and secretly stole the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons' remains!"
At Asura God's accusation, the Destruction God King sneered and mocked him. "I wondered who it was! So it's Lord Asura, the strongest in the Divine Realm! Shouldn't you be cultivating in Asura Temple? What are you doing here, throwing your weight around? You accuse me of secretly stealing the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons' remains, so tell me: why was your divine power on them? Besides, as the Divine Realm's enforcer, it's my duty to apprehend the survivors of the divine war! But there's one thing I'd like Lord Asura to explain. Why did you conceal that place with your divine power? Were you trying to hoard what was there, or were you planning to help the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons come back to life?"
"This... This..."
Seeing the Destruction God King pin him with a charge of colluding with beasts, Asura God was left speechless, unable to think of a rebuttal.
A mocking glint flashed through the Destruction God King's eyes. "What? Was I wrong?"
Asura God knew he had no choice but to take the loss.
The other man clearly knew that the place was where he had hidden his private resources.
There was no getting the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons' remains back now. But he couldn't leave empty-handed!
He had poured a great deal of effort into that place, after all!
Though he had been in the wrong first, the other man had also taken the Ice and Fire Twin Dragons' remains. Surely he wouldn't keep coming after him, would he?
