At this moment, the Sky Screen switched scenes.
[Outside Sunset Forest, more than a dozen figures sped over from the direction of Heaven Dou City, the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire.
A closer look revealed that every one of them was a powerhouse at the Title Douluo level.
The auras of the two people at the front stood far above the other Title Douluos.
One of them was Du Busi, the Body Sect Master and a Level 98 Super Douluo, leader of the Heaven Dou Empire's protector sect.
The other was Lv Chengkun, the Heaven Dou Empire's guardian Douluo and a Level 97 Super Douluo.
Sunset Forest was close to Heaven Dou City. Although the towering purple pillar of light deep within the forest had already vanished, the earth-shaking energy fluctuation from earlier could not possibly be ignored.
The Heaven Dou Empire's royal family had immediately called upon the Body Sect and brought the nation's top fighters here to investigate.
"Such an enormous amount of Soul Power vanished into thin air, and not even a trace of Soul Power remains."
Lv Chengkun stared toward where the Dragon Vein had been, his brows tightly furrowed.
That Soul Power had been so terrifying that it far exceeded the limits of his understanding, yet he could not sense even the slightest remnant of it now, as though it had never existed.
Du Busi glanced at him and said flatly:
"Heaven Dou City is so close to Sunset Forest. Now that something like this has happened in Sunset Forest, are you really telling me you know nothing?"
Lv Chengkun's face darkened.
Du Busi had asked him that several times already. Clearly, he did not believe that the Heaven Dou Empire truly knew nothing.
But the other man had been urgently invited by the royal family as a precaution, and he was stronger than Lv Chengkun. He could only suppress his displeasure and patiently explain.
"Our Heaven Dou Empire truly does not know what happened."
Lv Chengkun kept his tone as calm as possible.
"However, the Body Sect has been the protector sect of our Heaven Dou Empire for a thousand years. We would never harm the Body Sect."
Without even turning his head, Du Busi continued flying toward where the Dragon Vein had been, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.
Lv Chengkun made it sound nice enough.
But if things were really exactly as he claimed, the Body Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire would have long since merged into one, inseparable from each other.
There would no longer be separate concepts of the Body Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire.
As things stood, they were merely partners with a good relationship.
They maintained appearances, joined forces when necessary, and never hesitated to hold something back when it mattered.
Just as Du Busi and Lv Chengkun entertained different thoughts while leading the Title Douluos onward.
An unexpected voice reached every one of their ears.
"Coming through."
The instant the words fell, a black cube surrounded by countless soul-guided cannons appeared before them without warning.
The black cube moved at an absurd speed.
It was so fast that even Du Busi and Lv Chengkun, the strongest among them, only had time to see a human figure plastered against its front.
They had no time to mount any effective defense.
"What the—!"
"Bang bang bang!!!"
A series of dull impacts thundered across the sky.
Du Busi, Lv Chengkun, and the Title Douluos they had brought were smashed apart by the high-speed object, their formation collapsing in an instant.
Some were sent tumbling through the air, while others were blown hundreds of meters away by the gale.
One particularly unlucky Title Douluo was even smashed upside down into the ground headfirst, his legs dangling helplessly in the air.
He would probably become the laughingstock of the Title Douluos from now on.
"Hiss!"
Du Busi steadied himself and looked at the strange object, which had already fled into the distance as a tiny black dot. Then he lowered his gaze to his arm.
He had instinctively reached out to grab that thing, only for the impact to numb his arm. Even now, it still trembled faintly beyond his control.
His expression darkened.
But when he turned a questioning gaze toward Lv Chengkun, he discovered that the other man was in a far more miserable state.
Lv Chengkun was embedded in a large tree. Half his hair had been shaved off by the airflow kicked up as that object shot past.
His smooth scalp was exposed, while a few remaining strands of hair fluttered in the wind.
Du Busi's eyelid twitched.
That fellow had seemed to reach out to grab the thing too, hadn't he?
Du Busi could not help recalling that split-second scene.
As the leader, maintaining his authority before everyone else meant it was only natural for him to instinctively intervene when faced with a sudden situation.
But Lv Chengkun was only Level 97, one level below him.
As a result, he had been run over like a speed bump.
Fortunately, Du Busi was stronger. Otherwise, the prestige he had built over many years might have been ruined in an instant.
Du Busi's expression shifted uncertainly as he quietly placed his still-trembling hand behind his back.
After coughing a few times, he swept his gaze over the battered Title Douluos behind him.
"Regroup quickly, then continue onward!"
He did not mention what had just happened, as though nothing had occurred.
The Title Douluos exchanged looks, but seeing the miserable state of the guardian Douluo Wu Chengkun, no one dared say anything.]
The scene switched again.
[Back on Di Tian's side, his gaze fell upon the pool where ice and fire intertwined.
He raised both hands, and purple Soul Power surged around him, transforming into four enormous dragon claws that silently reached into the pool.
Purple energy penetrated through ten thousand meters of rock strata and extended toward the two Dragon Bones.
A moment later, purple light flashed in Di Tian's dragon eyes.
In his senses, the four dragon claws had firmly grasped the remains of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King.
Di Tian's gaze sharpened as he slowly raised his hands.
"Rise!"
"Boom! Boom!"
Two deafening explosions erupted at the same time, and the mixed roar of splashing water and exploding earth rang through Sunset Forest.
The waters of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well were forcibly overturned and blasted skyward, forming a curtain of water that poured down from above.
The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well had been utterly wrecked by the colossal Dragon Bones being forcibly lifted out.
The spring had become a scene of devastation, the surrounding rocks shattered into pieces by the raised Dragon Bones.
Above the ravaged Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
The Dragon Bones of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King saw daylight once more.
The two Dragon Bones were so massive they were suffocating, each radiating a red or blue glow.
Just as Di Tian was about to examine the two Dragon Bones more closely.
He suddenly froze.
His golden dragon eyes snapped downward, his gaze fixed on the shattered Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, which no longer resembled a spring at all.
"Boom!!!"
A golden beam burst from the spring and shot straight into the heavens, piercing the clouds and dyeing the entire sky gold.
The golden light was so dazzling that it was impossible to look at directly. Even Di Tian involuntarily raised a hand to shield his eyes from the blinding radiance.
Within the golden light, a figure slowly emerged.
"Di Tian, you dare destroy my Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!"
A voice filled with fury emerged from the golden light, exploding between heaven and earth like thunder. The entire world seemed to fall silent.
The golden light gradually receded, revealing a tall, slender figure.
He was a man dressed in blue-gold robes, with long hair draped over his shoulders and a blue trident mark between his brows.
Golden light radiated from his entire body. He looked illusory and ethereal, clearly only a divine-sense avatar.]
