[Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian, who had just become the Beast God, heard this voice.

Though puzzled, he still instinctively raised his hand and sent out a wisp of Soul Power.

That wisp of Soul Power circled in the air for a moment before vanishing into thin air, merging into a rift in space-time.

Within the Dragon Clan Secret Realm, a ten-thousand-year-old little black dragon was tirelessly practicing the Dragon God Claw when he heard the voice. He scratched his head with a dragon claw and looked around, but could not find where the voice had come from.

The next moment, a wisp of Soul Power flew out from his body and vanished into thin air.

Across countless time-spaces, innumerable different Di Tians simultaneously sensed this summons along different timelines and in different dimensions.

They all instinctively raised their hands and sent out a wisp of Soul Power.

Countless streams of Soul Power crossed space and time, converging in the God Realm!

God Realm.

After Di Tian shouted those words, the Asura God's eyes widened instantly as he stared fixedly at the purple figure in the sky.

Seemingly endless Soul Power appeared around Di Tian, burning fiercely like flames!

Di Tian's aura suddenly surged!

The boundary between a First-Level God and a God King was instantly shattered!

And it continued rising!

Not until he had reached the God King Peak, just one step away from the Supreme God King like himself!

Only then did that power finally stop.

"Was that also... a divine skill?"

The Asura God muttered softly, a trace of gravity appearing in his voice for the first time.

Having completed his power-up, Di Tian lowered his head and looked at the Asura God.

At this moment, he had nothing to fear, and even patiently explained:

"Although it is only a temporary increase, dealing with you..."

"Is already more than enough!"

"Arrogant!"

Hearing Di Tian's words, the Asura God shouted angrily and swung his sword.

A crimson slash tore through the sky, carrying terrifying might enough to kill a First-Level God as it whistled toward Di Tian high above!

This time, Di Tian did not dodge.

Once the attack neared him, he neither evaded nor retreated, merely giving his wings a light flap.

His enormous dragon wings collided head-on with the slash!

Then, the strike powerful enough to shake heaven and earth was actually scattered with a single flap of his wing!

The Asura God's brows furrowed, and a trace of seriousness flashed through his eyes.

"It seems his strength is not an illusion."

It was no wonder the Asura God was suspicious.

Di Tian's divine skill was simply too bizarre, allowing a First-Level God to instantly possess the power of a God King Peak.

Even after serving as a God King for hundreds of thousands of years, this was the first time he had ever seen such a divine skill.

Seeing that the Asura God had stopped attacking and remained where he was, seemingly contemplating a countermeasure, Di Tian spoke directly from the sky:

"Since you do not intend to attack, then it is my turn!"

Di Tian flapped his wings and took flight, and behind him appeared a radiance so brilliant that even the gods present could not ignore it!

But before long, the light behind him vanished in an instant, transforming into a circular void.

The next moment, the void rapidly expanded!

Space continuously collapsed into the void. The remaining ruins of palaces were sucked in by the terrifying pull, then instantly torn apart and vanished without a trace!

"Space-Time Turbulence!"

As Di Tian's words fell, the thing within the void revealed its true form.

It was Space-Time Turbulence!

The violent, chaotic Space-Time Turbulence, containing endless power of time and space, tore apart everything in its path!

And as the suction gradually intensified, weaker gods had already been pulled into the void. Their divine bodies and Godhood were crushed by the violent Space-Time Turbulence in the blink of an eye!

"In the next life, I will still be with you!"

"Mm, it is a promise!"

Unable to hold on any longer and falling ever faster into the Space-Time Turbulence, the Nine-Colored Goddess and the Food God clung tightly to each other, their eyes filled with sorrow.

They closed their eyes and waited for death.

Just when they believed they were doomed, a familiar voice sounded beside their ears.

"You two are really infuriating!"

Rong Nianbing appeared, carrying one of them in each hand. Divine power surged around him as he fled outward with all his strength!

"Di Tian! Are you trying to destroy the entire God Realm?!"

Watching the ever-expanding Space-Time Turbulence and the gods continuously falling into it, the Asura God's face was filled with fury.

He immediately stopped holding back, and God King-level power erupted with a boom!

He swung his sword again and again, sending earth-shaking slashes toward the Space-Time Turbulence, attempting to shatter it!

Yet when those slashes fell into the turbulence, they could only slightly slow its spread. They could not eliminate it completely at all.

Just as the Asura God was at a loss.

Four figures swept in from the horizon and landed steadily beside him.

They were the other four God Kings of the God Realm Committee: the God of Goodness, the God of Evil, the God of Destruction, and the Goddess of Life.

The God of Destruction stared gravely at the expanding Space-Time Turbulence and said to the Asura God in a low voice:

"Use the move that killed the Dragon God and slice this void apart! Then the Space-Time Turbulence will not be able to come through!"

Hearing this, the other four immediately nodded in agreement.

Without any needless words, the four God Kings besides the Asura God attacked with all their strength at once.

They condensed their divine power and continuously passed it among themselves.

In the end, it all gathered within the Asura God!

The Asura God's eyes widened instantly.

The next moment, a colossal figure that blotted out the sky appeared behind him.

A gigantic blood-red man wielding the Asura God Sword, his entire body radiating a suffocating aura of slaughter!

For a moment, his terrifying might was evenly matched with Di Tian's Space-Time Turbulence!

"Slash!"

With the Asura God's furious roar, the enormous figure swung the Asura God Sword!

A sword strike whose attack power had barely reached the level of a Supreme God King hacked viciously toward the void!

Wherever the blade passed, space shattered inch by inch!

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

After a series of crisp cracks, the ever-expanding void finally could not withstand the power of that sword and shattered with a boom, disappearing.

Having lost its source, the Space-Time Turbulence also dispersed into the air.

"We survived!"

A group of weaker gods collapsed amid the ruins, their faces full of relief at having escaped disaster.

But not long after.

Di Tian's figure slowly appeared in the sky once more.

He looked at the five God Kings, who were clearly somewhat exhausted after unleashing that extraordinary strike, and curled his lips into a mocking smile.

"Five against one? That certainly fits my understanding of you humans. The weak huddle together for warmth."

The God of Destruction frowned tightly, stepped forward, and pointed at Di Tian.

"There is no need to speak of honor when dealing with a madman like you who seeks to destroy the God Realm."

The God of Goodness beside him was somewhat gentler as she said, "I investigated you before coming here. You are the Beast God of the Star Dou Great Forest."

"Although I do not know why you suddenly gained such powerful strength, since you are the Beast God, you should not fear fighting many against few."

"Five against one. Please do not call us despicable."

Di Tian fell silent for a moment, then suddenly let out a sneer.

"I will not call you despicable."

"Having completely mastered time and space, I do not care how many people there are, because..."

Before he finished speaking, Di Tian flapped his wings, and strange Soul Power vortices actually appeared all around him!

There were twenty-five of them!

Before the five God Kings could understand what Di Tian intended to do, twenty-five Di Tians walked out of those twenty-five vortices at the same time!

The expressions of the five God Kings changed drastically, their pupils contracting violently.

"Because..."

Di Tian's voice rang out from every direction at once. "I can have as many people as I want now."

"Twenty-five against five. Please do not call me despicable, considering that you are the God Kings of the God Realm Committee!"

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the five God Kings with their livid faces.

"These are my Time-Space Slices from one second ago—in other words, my clones."

"Though they can only last for a while, every one of them possesses the strength of a God King Peak. Before their duration ends, that should be enough to kill you all."

Having said that, he lowered his head again to look at the five God Kings, whose bodies had stiffened as they remained silent, a teasing smile curling at his lips.

"Now then, let me ask you a question."

A trace of mockery flashed through Di Tian's eyes.

"Should my clones... use Space-Time Turbulence?"]
