Douluo Planet.
Facing a spiritual power attack from a peak super-god-level powerhouse, Di Tian, who was not even god-level, had no way to dodge.
Struck in the forehead by the spiritual flying knife, he was like a rocket booster that had run out of fuel, plummeting straight toward the surface of Tiandou Planet.
His formidable dragon body scraped against the atmosphere, scattering dazzling sparks.
However.
He did not instantly perish just like that.
If a divine power attack from a peak super-god-level powerhouse had struck him, then there would have been nothing to say. He would definitely have died.
But this was a spiritual power attack.
And Di Tian possessed the innate talent of spiritual power immunity.
Unlike the spiritual power immunity innate talent of ordinary dragons, his had once undergone a god-level enhancement.
Back then, when he had regressed from a divine dragon body into a soul beast body, his divine sense had turned into spiritual sense, which was equivalent to an alternative kind of recultivation.
But that did not mean nothing had been left behind.
That one god-level enhancement from divine sense turning into spiritual sense had strengthened his spiritual power immunity innate talent.
As long as there was no qualitative gap in spiritual power, his spiritual power immunity innate talent could basically immunize him against all spiritual power attacks.
Twenty thousand years ago, even the spiritual power attack Huo Yuhao had unleashed by using spiritual power to stir the power of fate of the entire Douluo Plane had not affected him in the slightest.
And right now.
Although Tianlong Seat's spiritual power attack had a qualitative gap compared to Di Tian's, Di Tian's accumulation was profound; his spiritual sense had long since evolved to the level of half-step divine sense.
In the instant before the spiritual flying knife struck his forehead.
Under the pressure of death, Di Tian took that final half-step at the critical moment.
Once again, he crossed the chasm between mortal and god.
Spiritual sense turned into divine sense.
The instant his divine sense took shape in his sea of spirit, Di Tian suddenly felt an even stronger suppressive force in the unseen depths. It was the suppressive force of the curse that "beasts cannot become gods."
Even though the foundation of spiritual power he had accumulated was enough to support him in continuing to evolve toward true-god-level, or even super-god-level spiritual power.
He was still firmly restricted by that suppressive force.
However.
It was enough!
The emergence of divine sense evened out the qualitative gap in spiritual power between him and Tianlong Seat.
Spiritual power immunity took effect!
Ripples that were formless yet substantial spread from Di Tian's sea of spirit. The spiritual flying knife that had struck his forehead was like a boat swaying on ocean waves.
Before long.
The flying knife vanished, and the spiritual power that had pierced into Di Tian's sea of spirit no longer had any killing power.
Only a curled-up mass of super-god-level spiritual power remained.
But the crisis had not been completely resolved.
Even without offensive power, it was still the spiritual power of a peak super-god-level powerhouse.
Moreover, it was spiritual power incompatible with Di Tian.
If it stayed there indefinitely, who knew what kind of trouble it might cause.
Di Tian had to erase it as quickly as possible.
But!
It was true that his divine sense could erase this mass of spiritual power, but his physical body could not withstand it.
Di Tian's divine sense, which possessed the trait of spiritual immunity, VS Tianlong Seat's peak super-god-level spiritual power.
The force of their collision was capable of physically tearing the void apart!
This was no longer simple spiritual damage!
Just as Di Tian hesitated slightly, a sudden change occurred.
The incompatible super-god-level spiritual power began to swell endlessly in a suicidal manner. Each time it approached Di Tian's divine sense, its own super-god-level spiritual power would be reduced by a fraction.
Likewise, the collision would also produce physical killing power.
"Hiss—"
Even Di Tian's dragon body, which had reached god-level strength, began to crack inch by inch, dense spiderweb-like fissures appearing across the surface of his enormous dragon form.
"Looks like I can't keep it."
Facing such peril on every side, Di Tian had no choice but to take out an object.
A Life Evergreen Vine bag.
Woven from the roots of the Life Evergreen Vine.
Ordinary people only remembered that life-type heavenly treasures could prolong life, but they forgot that life-type heavenly treasures were formed by roots ceaselessly drawing in energy, transforming it, and nourishing them.
Roots that had nourished countless life-type heavenly treasures would only be of even higher quality.
Able to ensure that a weakened living creature would not die for at least thirty thousand years, these Life Evergreen Vine roots were enough to rank among divine-grade heavenly treasures.
After taking out the Dragon-Eating Beast—the "Golden Behemoth King Cub"—from within the Life Evergreen Vine roots, he refined the Life Evergreen Vine in an instant.
A warm current flowed through his limbs and bones.
Di Tian gained the properties of the Life Evergreen Vine roots, drawing in outside energy, transforming it, and using it to nourish himself.
All thanks to this property.
It greatly slowed the cracking of Di Tian's physical body, preventing it from collapsing quickly, allowing him to completely grind away Tianlong's super-god-level spiritual power.
At the same time—
With a deafening boom—
Di Tian's enormous Golden-Eyed Black Dragon body crashed down to the earth, smashing out a massive crater like a meteor strike.
The place where he landed was beside the Federation Academy of Sciences Tiandou Planet Branch.
Amid the chaos of sweeping dust and flying iron filings, researchers groped their way toward Di Tian one after another.
Their gazes shifted unpredictably.
From their initial displeasure at being disturbed, to curiosity upon seeing the colossal creature, and finally to excitement and thrill when they saw the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon body.
A young researcher saw the dense wounds covering the surface of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon body and the dragon blood flowing from them.
He spoke what everyone was thinking:
"He... seems to be dead."
"Do we have a new experimental specimen again?"
Of course Di Tian was not dead.
He also heard the words from outside.
But he had no mind to care.
On his end, one wave had only just subsided before another rose.
He had just finished grinding away the super-god-level spiritual power Tianlong had left behind, and his physical body had not completely collapsed either.
Before he even had time to be happy, when the super-god-level spiritual power was ground away to the end, a wisp of elusive Tianlong will surfaced.
Fortunately, it was not too troublesome.
Abilities like possession relied on will, and Tianlong's will was no exception.
Tianlong's will had one and only one possession target: Di Tian.
Could he succeed?
There was not the slightest possibility.
The instant Tianlong's will touched Di Tian, it immediately vanished into smoke and clouds, not taking even a single wisp of cloud with it.
Compared to Di Tian's long experience across endless years, the several-thousand-year lifespan of the Tianlong Seat was like a single grain in the vast sea.
If it was only a contest of will, Di Tian had lived for so many years, failed so many times, trusted so many wrong people... and even now, he still had not gone mad. He was still tireless, still conscientious and diligent.
He still gathered up the old mountains and rivers and set out again.
Compared to him, Tianlong's will—
to call it a firefly against the bright moon, or a nag against a qilin, would already be flattering him.
"Huff—"
After calming the final aftershock left by the strike of a peak super-god-level powerhouse, the gravely injured Di Tian exhaled a heavy dragon breath.
Then he opened his golden dragon eyes and looked down at the surrounding researchers as they discussed how to study him.
His voice was cold:
"I am Di Tian."
"The king of the Soul Beast Clan."
"Tell the Federation War God Temple that I have something concerning the life and death of the Federation to inform them of."
"Miss your chance, and it's gone."
Deep within his cold gaze burned the flames of bloodthirsty revenge.
Tianlong wouldn't let him have it easy.
And he wouldn't let Tianlong have it easy either.
What bullshit plan to devour the entire Douluo Demi-God Realm through the Dragon Source Crystal!
From today on, that plan was bankrupt!
He said so!
