High above the sky, a figure in black stood proudly in the void. His crimson-gold vertical pupils overlooked the earth, carrying an unparalleled imperial majesty that ruled over all realms and commanded all living beings.

He merely stood there in silence, needing neither action nor words. The terrifying pressure originating from the depths of his bloodline crashed down like a falling sky, making everyone present's hearts pound wildly and their souls tremble.

"Limit... Douluo!"

Chen Xin and Yu Yuanzhen met each other's eyes, and both saw the utmost gravity in the other's gaze.

There was only one kind of being on the entire continent whose mere aura could make veteran Titled Douluo like them feel a chill—Level 99 Limit Douluo!

And the figure in the sky was the supreme ruler of all soul beasts across the Douluo Continent!

The foremost of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, possessing a terrifying cultivation of eight hundred thousand years—the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Beast God Di Tian!

The gazes of the four Titled Douluo upon Prince Xue Xing instantly turned incomparably cold.

What the hell had you people provoked?! Why had a Level 99 freak appeared?!

And why were there so many terrifying beings in the Star Dou Great Forest? How had they not known after all these years?!

Chen Xin secretly sent a voice transmission to Gu Rong. "If things go wrong later, hurry up and take Fengzhi away! I'll cover your retreat!"

Yu Yuanzhen, meanwhile, clenched both fists, looking eager to fight.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant would rather break than bend!

As for Dugu Bo...

Who am I? Where am I? What am I here for?

"Di Tian! Don't act rashly!" Bi Ji hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

If these people died here, then the conflict between soul beasts and humans would become absolutely irreconcilable!

Di Tian raised a hand to stop her, then said, "I know what I'm doing."

He looked at the four Titled Douluo before him once more and said, "I'll only make one attack. If you withstand it, you may leave."

What an arrogant fellow!

But the four of them understood that he truly had the right to be arrogant.

Ning Fengzhi said nothing and silently summoned the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Seven-colored light flowed, and in an instant, the strength of the four Titled Douluo before him rose by a full eighty percent!

At this moment, the strength of the four Titled Douluo was no weaker than that of the three Great Fierce Beasts and the Six-Winged Darkgold Tiger from before!

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda? Interesting." Di Tian finally began to take the four of them seriously.

"Make your move." Sword Douluo Chen Xin silently raised the sword in his hand.

He was a man of few words, but the sword in his hand already conveyed his intent.

"Chen Xin, we'll do this together." Dugu Bo spoke as well.

"No." However, Chen Xin shook his head. "I want to do this myself."

What!

Yu Yuanzhen, Dugu Bo, and Gu Rong stared at Chen Xin in shock.

Even with Ning Fengzhi's support, Chen Xin's current strength was only barely at Level 98. Though the difference was only one level, after Level 91, every level was separated by the distance between heaven and earth!

Yet Chen Xin still said with absolute resolve, "I want to see just how great the gap is between myself and the peak of this world."

He thought of his father. His father had once been a Level 97 Peak Douluo, invincible throughout his life, until... he encountered that man.

The Level 99 Limit Douluo, Qian Daoliu!

His father had given everything he had, yet all nine killing characters had been effortlessly blocked. Chen Xin wanted to witness that kind of terror for himself as well.

As a swordsman, he had to face every enemy with the sword in his hand!

Hearing Chen Xin's words, the other three Titled Douluo silently nodded and stepped half a pace back. Ning Fengzhi said nothing, only continuously placing every enhancement upon Chen Xin.

At this moment, Lin Ya was also somewhat worried.

Di Tian was strong, but he was not a god after all. If the four Titled Douluo joined forces, blocking one attack from Di Tian would not be difficult.

But if it was only Sword Douluo... he could only hope Di Tian would not use the Dragon God Claw.

"Facing me alone? Your courage is worthy of my regard." A trace of approval flashed through Di Tian's crimson-gold eyes. "In that case, receive this move of mine."

Dragon Emperor God-Slaying Roar!

Di Tian revealed his true form. The incomparably massive Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King stretched across the heavens, its jaws opening wide as a golden beam condensed with the power of the Dragon Emperor erupted forth. Wherever it passed, even space twisted!

Facing this terrifying strike that could instantly kill an ordinary Titled Douluo, the azure light around the sword in Chen Xin's palm surged. He softly recited a sword incantation:

"The cassia tree stands youthful across a hundred li of land, while partridges cry through the cool noon shade."

"Above Yanping Ford, peaks rise sharp as blades; when the sword departs, the river and sky flow on forever!"

The sword moved with his voice. The sword intent of the mortal world soared into the sky, and the azure longsword was completely swallowed by endless crimson radiance.

Ninth Soul Skill—Sword Dao: Chen Xin!

A phantom of a sword-wielding warrior towering between heaven and earth emerged behind Chen Xin. Grasping a massive crimson sword, it fiercely slashed toward the Dragon Emperor's breath!

Bang—!

Golden and crimson power collided madly. The dragon breath, powerful enough to shatter mountains and split seas, was actually forcibly halted in midair!

"Well done!" Gu Rong looked at his old friend excitedly! Worthy of being the number one sword on the Douluo Continent! What a move! Truly terrifying!

Yu Yuanzhen also silently praised him in his heart. If Di Tian's attack had been aimed at him, he likely would not have been able to withstand it.

Poison Douluo remained silent. He had always felt that this battle did not have much to do with him.

Lin Ya also breathed a sigh of relief. "Good thing it wasn't the Dragon God Claw, and... so this is that Chen Xin?"

Upon seeing Chen Xin's Ninth Soul Skill, Lin Ya understood the strength of this version of Chen Xin.

There were three versions of Douluo Continent: the novel, the animation, and the comic. Aside from character designs, the other characters' strengths were more or less similar, but Chen Xin differed tremendously.

Take his Ninth Soul Skill, for example. In the comic version, it was called God-Demon Dual Slash. In the animated version, the Ninth Soul Skill was called Sword Dao: Chen Xin. In the novel, it was Terrifying Thirteen Swords... which sounded rather mediocre.

Of those three versions, the animated version was undoubtedly the strongest.

In the theatrical release Sword Dao: Chen Xin, Chen Xin was someone who could truly survive against an all-out Qian Daoliu and even wound him!

"Not bad power, but... although the God Realm restricts us soul beasts from becoming gods, on this Douluo Continent, no one can ever be my opponent!"

Di Tian let out a dragon roar, and the power of the Dragon Emperor God-Slaying Roar surged once more!

Yu Yuanzhen, Gu Rong, and Dugu Bo all clenched their fists nervously. They were fortunate to be able to witness a Limit Douluo make a move from such close range.

They were also unfortunate, because they understood that it was a realm they could never reach!

Golden light completely submerged the sword-dao phantom, then swallowed Chen Xin himself.

Boom—!!

The intense light faded, and the dust gradually settled.

Chen Xin was covered in blood, his clothes torn to shreds, his aura weakened to the extreme.

Yet he still stood with his sword planted against the ground, his back straight as a blade. He had not fallen even half a step.

He looked proudly at Di Tian in the sky, a faint smile rising at the corner of his lips.

He... had succeeded!

Looking at Chen Xin below, battered all over yet still standing, Di Tian snorted coldly and said, "You may leave."

Although Chen Xin had lost, he had also won!
