Gu Yuena whispered to herself, the shock in her eyes growing ever more profound.
As the progenitor of the Dragon race, her perception of power was sharp to the extreme.
The contact from that brief moment had allowed her to clearly sense that the power not only contained endless vitality but also possessed an aura of supreme imperial authority that transcended all things.
It felt as though every plant in the entire world was offering its submission to the master of that power.
"This is not power native to the Douluo Continent."
"That direction... it is the Sun Moon Continent that has only just revealed its traces."
Gu Yuena withdrew her palm, her five fingers slowly tightening.
"Could it be that a supreme deity who has mastered the laws of life has been born on that continent?"
"But the God Realm has clearly been sealed; without the permission of the God Realm, it is impossible for a mortal to break through level one hundred and become a god."
"Moreover, the vastness of this power far exceeds that of an ordinary deity."
She stood upon the surface of the lake, her heart churning like a stormy sea.
She had originally believed that, with her Dragon Emperor Bloodline and strength, she was invincible in this world.
Yet now, this sudden and terrifying power had shattered all of her pride.
"The Sun Moon Continent... the Blue Silver Empire, is it?"
Gu Yuena gazed toward the west, a complex light flickering in her violet eyes.
"It seems this world hides even more secrets than I had imagined."
At this moment, ten thousand miles away on the Sun Moon Continent, above the Blue Silver Temple.
The vast and boundless life ceremony had reached its most critical juncture.
The life essence contributed by the billions of Blue Silver Grass across the entire continent converged into a massive blue galaxy, submerging Ah Yin.
Placed at the center of this energy, Ah Yin felt the blood within her body begin to boil.
That energy, pure to the extreme, was not only nourishing her soul but also reshaping her origin.
"Xiao... this power is too immense, my body feels as if it is about to burst!"
Ah Yin could not help but cry out in alarm.
She could feel every cell in her body undergoing earth-shattering changes under the infusion of this power.
Tang Xiao stood to the side, his deep blue hair flying amidst the divine power.
He looked at his mother, whose face was etched with pain yet radiated a sacred aura, his voice gentle and firm:
"Mother, do not resist this power."
"You are the Blue Silver Emperor; these powers are of the same origin as you."
"Yield to it, release your origin, and only by breaking the cocoon can you be reborn."
Hearing her son's words, Ah Yin gritted her teeth and allowed that massive energy to swallow her whole.
The next moment, a strange scene unfolded.
In that instant, Ah Yin's body began to manifest enormous blue roots.
Those roots spread through the void like swimming dragons, frantically absorbing the surrounding life energy.
In the blink of an eye, Ah Yin's physical form vanished, replaced by a colossal Blue Silver Tree that radiated a shimmering blue light.
The trunk was incredibly thick, requiring ten people to encircle it, and it was covered in ancient, mysterious golden patterns.
Rustle!
As the life energy continued to pour in, this Blue Silver Tree began to grow upward at an astonishing speed.
Ten meters, a hundred meters, a thousand meters!
In mere moments, a towering tree that pierced the clouds stood in the center of the Sun Moon Continent's capital.
The massive canopy blocked out the sun, casting the entire temple into shadow.
Every leaf looked as if it had been carved from the finest blue crystal, flowing with dazzling divine radiance.
"In my name, merge with all things!"
Tang Xiao pressed his palms together, uttering an ancient divine incantation.
At that moment, the massive blue galaxy in the sky began to condense frantically toward the center of the towering tree.
Countless branches and leaves folded inward, wrapping layer upon layer around the core trunk.
Finally, to the stunned gaze of everyone present, the towering giant tree vanished, replaced by a massive blue cocoon of light suspended high in the sky.
The surface of the light cocoon was densely covered in golden divine runes, and each flicker was accompanied by a dull thud, like the beating of a heart.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
With every beat, ripples surged through the surrounding space, and the pure aura of life transformed into a dense mist that shrouded everything for a hundred miles around.
On the ground, countless citizens of the Blue Silver Empire gazed at the miracle in the sky, their expressions reaching a fever pitch of fanaticism.
"Your Majesty's divine might! May the Empire flourish forever!"
The overwhelming roar of their cheers echoed across the entire continent.
Tang Xiao stood silently in the void, watching the massive cocoon of light before him, a flicker of anticipation crossing his eyes.
He could feel a brand-new, unimaginably powerful life force gestating and coming to life within that cocoon.
Crack.
A crisp sound of shattering rang out, exceptionally clear in the silent sky.
Immediately after, a beam of blinding, brilliant gold-blue light erupted from the cracks in the cocoon.
Crack! Crack!
Dense, spiderweb-like fissures instantly spread across the entire surface of the cocoon.
BOOM!
With a thunderous roar, the massive cocoon exploded, transforming into a rain of gold and blue light that drifted down toward the earth.
At the center of that rain of light, a breathtakingly beautiful figure slowly emerged.
The woman had long, deep-blue hair like a waterfall, cascading down to her ankles, with faint golden light shimmering at the tips.
Her skin was fair, her features so exquisite they were beyond flaw, and her entire being radiated an aura that was noble, sacred, and inviolable.
Her eyes, clear as sapphires, reflected the world before her.
Ah Yin stood quietly in the void, looking at her own hands, her eyes filled with bewilderment.
She could feel the terrifying power contained within this body of hers.
It was no longer ordinary Soul Power, but supreme divine power.
Her meridians were as wide as rivers, her bones as hard as divine iron, and every breath she took drew in the purest natural energy between heaven and earth.
"I... have I truly come back to life?"
Ah Yin murmured to herself, her voice clear and melodious, like a spring in the forest.
She tried to circulate the power within her, and in an instant, rings of brilliant soul rings rose slowly from beneath her feet.
Yellow, purple, black, black, black, red, red, red, red...
Nine soul rings, each radiating astonishing pressure; the latter red ones, in particular, carried a rich, sacred aura.
Her cultivation had transcended the limits of mortals in this moment, reaching the realm of a quasi-god!
"This... how is this possible?"
Ah Yin looked at her hands in disbelief, her body trembling slightly with excitement.
She had thought that merely regaining her physical form and becoming an ordinary person again would have been a gift of the highest order.
She never expected that her eldest son would reshape her into a god-level body, even allowing her to ascend in a single step to possess the strength of a quasi-god.
"Mother."
"Congratulations..."
A gentle voice came from beside her.
Ah Yin's body shuddered, and she whipped her head around.
Tang Xiao stood not far away, his long, deep-blue hair flying in the wind, a gentle smile gracing his peerlessly handsome face.
Looking at her eldest son, Ah Yin felt a sting in her nose, and all her emotions broke through the dam at once.
She thought of the moment this child was born, and the disgusted, cold gaze of that man.
She thought of how this child had been heartlessly abandoned on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, and the hardships and suffering he must have endured to survive under the threat of countless soul beasts.
All these years, she had been transformed into an ordinary Blue Silver Grass, imprisoned by that man in a sunless valley, while her eldest son had been on another strange continent, carving out such a vast empire all on his own.
How much injustice had this child suffered?
How much bitterness had he endured to reach this point today?
