"Heh."
"Two god-level powerhouses."
"You really think highly of me."
The instant Di Tian stepped onto Douluo Home Planet, he immediately felt two divine senses lock onto him, and even felt the fierce battle intent rushing toward him head-on.
He showed no fear whatsoever.
With his true body returning to Douluo Home Planet, someone was bound to verify whether he would suddenly trigger a godhood tribulation on the home planet.
He had long since prepared himself.
Even if he had to face god-level powerhouses.
"Whoosh—"
Dragon God Claw!
The moment he made his move, it was his strongest attack.
Nine-colored divine light flowed and shimmered, like colored lightning flashing.
"Good!" Compared to Elder Shu, Wang Tianyu was a simpler, purer battle maniac.
"I've long heard that ever since Beast God's cultivation reached nine hundred and ninety thousand years and could advance no further, he possessed the combat power to defy a god with a mortal body."
"To be able to fight with all my strength today—what fortune!"
"Haah—"
A roar that sank to the dantian rang out, accompanied by a thunderous dragon cry.
"Roooar—"
His god-level Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon bloodline was activated, and Wang Tianyu's right arm transformed into a blue dragon arm, a dragon claw.
After a soul master broke through to the god level, their martial soul would no longer manifest externally.
A martial soul was originally the outward manifestation of one's own bloodline.
Once they broke through to god level, beast martial souls entered the body, and the soul master possessed two combat forms: a beast body and a human body, which they could switch between at any time.
Tool martial souls, meanwhile, would materialize into divine weapons.
Moreover, they were divine weapons that could be hidden within the bloodline and resonated with for use at any time.
"Whoosh—"
The lightning dragon fist that had been gathering power for some time blasted straight toward Di Tian's Dragon God Claw, accompanied by a violent, howling gale.
The instant fist and claw collided, a surge of energy erupted around them.
Below god level, without the combat power of a Titled Douluo, anyone merely caught in that energy storm would be reduced to dust in an instant.
"Yo-yo, the deer cry, feeding on the wild artemisia!"
At that moment, the other god-level powerhouse also made his move.
"Thud!"
A cane brimming with life energy struck space.
Life energy gathered into deer-shaped spirits of grass and wood, weaving a grass-and-wood barrier that enveloped a stretch of space.
The moment he acted, it was a barrier-type divine skill.
First, it was to restrict the energy storm produced by the collision between the two.
Second, he was also feeling a little itchy for a fight.
Throughout the generations, the famous figures of Shrek Academy had all gone to fight the boss, Di Tian.
Even though Elder Shu himself had no mission to fight Di Tian, he wanted to give it a try now too.
The barrier-type divine skill bound the energy storm on one side while sealing toward Di Tian, who was locked in a contest of strength with Wang Tianyu.
"Swish—"
Di Tian's golden dragon eyes narrowed, his vertical pupils flashing with lightning.
"Black Dragon King Secret Art—Black Dragon Sword!"
An invisible vortex seemed to appear around him. In the blink of an eye, nearly endless dark elements converged, forming a lightless, dim night.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
The power of the law of darkness was unleashed to its utmost, and ninety-nine Black Dragon Swords gleaming with cold light shot forth.
The divine swords howled.
Above, they split the firmament; below, they suppressed the abyssal depths.
"Crack! Crack..." As Elder Shu's barrier was broken through by the energy storm and the secret art of the ninety-nine Black Dragon Swords—
Wang Tianyu lost the simultaneous contest of strength and was blasted back by the Dragon God Claw.
In the eyes of both god-level powerhouses was shock that was impossible to hide and beyond words.
Elder Shu was shaken because Di Tian could stand against two god-level powerhouses.
He had not become a god, yet he actually possessed such battle strength.
It was simply unbelievable.
Wang Tianyu's shock, however, showed itself in the contest of bloodlines.
His Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon bloodline had actually been suppressed!
"Why is this happening?" Blunt by nature, he asked directly.
"Your Excellency."
"I once took my own Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon bloodline and your Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King bloodline and tested them with soul-engineering machinery. Clearly, neither could suppress the other!"
"Are the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King not both true dragons of the same bloodline level?"
"Why?"
"Why was my bloodline suppressed just now?"
The corner of Di Tian's eye twitched.
He said speechlessly:
"You know it yourself—you used your own Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon bloodline."
"You are a deity."
"When a soul master becomes a god, they receive an all-around baptism."
"A comprehensive sublimation, including the bloodline."
"What is powerful is not the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, but you, a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon that has already evolved to the divine dragon level."
"Your bloodline-level experiment was not rigorous."
"Compared with a soul beast, the bloodline of the soul-beast Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King can definitely suppress the bloodline of the martial soul Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon."
"But compared with a deity, the bloodline of the soul-beast Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King can only draw even with the bloodline of a divine-dragon-level Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon."
"From beginning to end."
"The Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon have never been true dragons of the same bloodline level."
"As for... why I was able to suppress you, when the soul-beast Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King and the divine-dragon Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon should have been evenly matched?"
Di Tian raised the palm that still held the lingering nine-colored energy of the Dragon God Claw.
"This wasn't my first time using it."
"You Shrek people should have records of it."
Elder Shu stepped forward at this moment.
"Sigh~"
"A human's lifespan is ultimately still too short. Even after becoming a deity, it is only a thousand years."
"Even history is difficult for us to remember in full."
"The Dragon God Claw, hm? It truly is powerful."
"According to legend, only the Spirit Pagoda's founder from twenty thousand years ago, Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao, ever broke the Dragon God Claw head-on."
"However, this old man is quite curious."
"At the time, Spirit Ice Douluo clearly had not yet become a god, so how was he able to do it?"
"I hope the Beast God will enlighten us?"
"Very simple."
"A super divine weapon—the Ghost Carving Divine Blade."
"If you had a super divine weapon right now, you could also break the Dragon God Claw I used," Di Tian replied calmly.
Although he could fight two god-level powerhouses against the odds, he felt no excitement at all.
This truly was a terrible era.
Even though his strength had increased greatly compared with ten thousand years ago, it still could not compare to humanity's great leap in power.
A Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon not even a hundred years old, and a broken branch from the Eternal Sky Tree, could block his path forward.
He was already in a foul mood.
Yet Elder Shu just had to throw out an olive branch of recruitment at this moment.
"The Beast God has known Shrek for over twenty thousand years. Our ties run deep."
"Clearly."
"Your Excellency is fated with Shrek."
"After transforming and cultivating anew, why not come to Shrek?"
"With the Beast God's talent and foundation, you will surely become the pillar bearing up Shrek's glory for the next ten thousand years!"
Di Tian's golden eyes turned to Elder Shu, as though he were seeing the bearing of old acquaintances in him—Long Yeyue, Cai Yue'er, Xuan Zi...
That made sense.
Elder Shu was a fallen branch of the Eternal Sky Tree, and the seed of the Eternal Sky Tree had been born from the Golden Ancient Tree.
The Golden Ancient Tree and the Eternal Sky Tree had witnessed Shrek's rise and fall, its prosperity and decline, and had seen generations of Shrek people grow up.
Elder Shu had been contaminated by generation after generation of Shrek people, so it was only natural that he carried the bearing of old acquaintances.
However, Di Tian did not pay too much attention to Elder Shu.
His spiritual senses suddenly jolted. His eyes, which had been fixed on Elder Shu, instantly focused on the space behind him.
"Since you're already here, why bother skulking around?"
