The terrifying pressure passed through the Sky Screen and reached Douluo Continent.
Just by sensing it, they could tell that the power of the Specium Ray was far more than simply enough to kill its target instantly.
In the Worship Hall's reception room, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue—the only two among them who possessed divine positions—shot to their feet.
And it wasn't just them. The entire Douluo Continent was witnessing the power of this attack.
[However, the beam did not hit Zetton. Instead, it struck a sudden, translucent cylindrical barrier that had appeared in front of Zetton, flickering with sparks, and was completely blocked.]
At the sight, the entire Douluo Continent fell silent in an instant.
"How is that possible?! That attack was completely blocked. I could clearly sense that if the Specium Ray had been aimed at Douluo Continent, most of the continent would have been destroyed."
Bibi Dong was stunned.
Her delicate face had gone pale with shock.
Qian Renxue beside her was no better.
They even realized that the Sky Screen seemed to have deceived them.
It had clearly said that Zetton was a Monster at the level of a million-year Soul Beast, but judging by its actual performance and defensive skill—
It was far beyond anything a million-year Soul Beast could compare to.
Di Tian was staring straight at the Sky Screen for the first time.
He could not hide his shock.
Before, he had only glanced at it, but this time he stared fixedly at the Sky Screen.
If he had taken that Specium Ray head-on, he would have been seriously injured at the very least.
Yet the Space Dinosaur Zetton had completely blocked it with a single defensive skill.
Without a scratch.
If Zetton had been a natural Soul Beast, they would have been proud of it. They might even have tried to recruit it.
But Zetton had been created by the Zetton Alien.
A created Soul Beast was stronger than those who had cultivated for tens or even hundreds of thousands of years.
It was an absolute humiliation.
Only Gu Yuena still had a fairly sensible reaction. Every other Soul Beast felt deeply humiliated.
But Xiong Jun refused to admit it.
He slammed a fist into the stone wall again.
"This is impossible! How could a puppet like that be stronger than us Soul Beasts?!"
Di Tian looked away.
He spoke with forced calm:
"Think about it. There must be a trade-off. With such powerful defense and speed, Zetton's strength must be weak."
Xiong Jun hurriedly agreed:
"Exactly!"
The two Soul Beasts had remarkably similar thoughts.
Gu Yuena looked at them with disdain.
She felt Zetton was far from that simple.
In the Heaven Dou Imperial Family's palace.
The nobles and officials alike looked at the Sky Screen as if they had just eaten shit.
From what they had seen, both the Ultraman and the Space Dinosaur Zetton were far stronger than they could have imagined.
But not one of them had reached the level of a Titled Douluo, so they had no way to judge just how powerful they were compared to Douluo Continent.
Yu Xiaogang, however, didn't care about any of that. If the Heaven Dou Empire couldn't defeat them, how was he supposed to obtain the Plasma Spark?
How could his Martial Soul evolve?
He didn't want to spend his whole life stuck at a cultivation level of just over thirty.
He, Yu Xiaogang, wanted to become a god too!
So, while everyone else remained silent, Yu Xiaogang spoke up under the guise of a Martial Soul research Grandmaster.
"Don't be afraid. Not everyone in the Land of Light is that strong. Besides, this so-called Ultraman looks only a tiny bit stronger than a Titled Douluo."
Yu Xiaogang pinched the air between his index finger and thumb.
Then he continued:
"We have one enormous advantage over the Land of Light: we have strategy, and we don't fight alone. If we secretly contact that Zetton Alien and get his help, our chances of attacking the Land of Light will be excellent."
After Yu Xiaogang finished, a smile appeared on Xue Beng's face.
But just then, a civil official raised a question:
"But why would that Zetton Alien help us?"
The question set Yu Xiaogang roaring with laughter.
"Why? Because our Heaven Dou Empire has countless elite soldiers, and the Shrek Seven Devils I taught are at the peak of their strength. With such powerful allies, what reason would he have to refuse?"
Yu Xiaogang had said it right in front of Xue Beng.
Who would dare criticize the Heaven Dou Empire? Everyone nodded in agreement.
Xue Beng was also very pleased with what Yu Xiaogang had just said.
"Let our Heaven Dou might resound across the cosmos and make the name of the Heaven Dou Empire echo throughout the universe!"
After Xue Beng spoke, the ministers grew even more excited.
No one cared anymore whether Yu Xiaogang's words made any sense.
In Star Dou Forest.
The Shrek Seven Devils had gathered as well.
But when the Sky Screen showed Zetton completely blocking the Specium Ray, they stopped again to watch.
"That Specium Ray was blocked so easily? If I took that attack, I'd probably be reduced to ashes."
Tang San murmured softly, in a voice no one else could hear.
With his divine inheritance, Tang San was able to see the power of the Specium Ray more clearly.
An ordinary Titled Douluo would only think the Specium Ray was powerful, but not all that impressive.
Only Tang San understood how powerful the Specium Ray was—and how absurdly strong the Monster called Zetton's defenses were.
Seeing the other six staring at him expectantly, clearly waiting for him to assess the strength of the two figures on the Sky Screen, Tang San had no choice but to speak:
"There's no doubt about the power of the Specium Ray, but I don't think Zetton blocked it completely by brute force. The beam might have some weakness, and Zetton may have exploited it to counter the Specium Ray."
Hearing Tang San say that, Dai Mubai breathed a sigh of relief.
"I knew it. Everything in the world has a weakness. If the Zetton Alien can figure it out, why can't we on Douluo Continent? Once we discover that weakness, the Land of Light will lose its strongest weapon."
Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up.
"Then invading the Land of Light won't be dangerous at all."
Dai Mubai nodded and praised Ma Hongjun:
"Fatty, it's rare for you to be smart for once."
But Ning Rongrong felt that something was very wrong.
She, too, had inherited divine power from Sea God Island.
Although she had inherited very little, only a tiny fraction,
she still had some, so she sensed more from the Sky Screen than those without divine inheritances.
She felt things weren't that simple. If they really attacked the Land of Light, or faced the Monster Zetton,
they probably wouldn't stand a chance. But she didn't understand why Tang San wasn't saying so.
Thinking he might have his reasons, she didn't contradict them.
In the Worship Hall.
Xiao Che explained to the two women:
"Zetton was a masterpiece that the Zetton Alien had spent many years planning and creating. It was bound to be far stronger than ordinary Monsters."
Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue finally understood.
So not all Monsters were this strong.
This Zetton was probably the strongest Monster, right?
After all, it had such powerful defenses that even the Specium Ray couldn't break through.
Xiao Che continued:
"But this is still Zetton's weakest form. Zetton has many forms. The strongest, Hyper Zetton, can plunge the entire universe into despair. It took the appearance of Saga, one of the Mysterious Four Ultras, just to barely defeat it."
Bibi Dong: ???
Qian Renxue: ???
The two women spoke in unison:
"Zetton is still the weakest?!"
