"It's simple! I'll just open up a new God Realm!"

Douluo Continent's God Realm had originally been created after the fact.

Since the current God Realm and divine positions had limitations, why not simply create a new one?

It could only be said that after spending so long with the Temporal Saint Dragon, Yu Yuan had been influenced to some extent.

"Ho ho ho ha ha!"

The Fire Dragon King suddenly burst into laughter, his booming voice echoing across the lakebed.

"Kid, you've got talent. I think you're even crazier than that guy over there."

He had thought that creating a new Dragon God was the limit of what these two could come up with.

He had never expected them to be planning to take down the current God Realm outright.

But! The more he thought about it, the more interested he became in joining them.

"Fire, calm down."

The Ice Dragon King saw at a glance what his old friend was thinking.

Yet, he himself was also feeling excited for the first time in a long while.

A new God Realm?

It sounded even more unreliable than a new Dragon God.

Still, they were already planning to join in creating a new Dragon God. Creating one more God Realm did not seem like much of a problem.

After all, it was all a grand promise the other side had painted for them. No matter how grand it was, it would not affect their fantasies.

So, he finally looked at his dear friend.

"Fire, have you decided?"

"Of course, Ice. Did you think I planned to rot away here?"

The Fire Dragon King looked back at his dear friend. They had always been like this.

They were used to looking at each other. Once one made a decision, the other would follow.

"Then, kid, what do we do?"

After exchanging glances, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings looked together at Yu Yuan and Xiao Kong below.

The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings chose to go all in!

"Oh yeah! I told you, you two would definitely agree."

Xiao Kong immediately broke into an improvised dance in delight.

Only then did he begin explaining the specific procedure.

The divine position fragments could temporarily be sealed within the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' soul bones.

At the same time, their remaining divine power and the ice-fire attribute energy within the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Eyes could be used to condense soul rings.

Their remaining spiritual power could also be stored within the soul rings.

Finally, the Golden Dragon would absorb their remaining bones, maximizing their use.

After all that, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings would essentially be eaten clean.

Yu Yuan sat cross-legged again. Before beginning, he needed to adjust his condition.

He also had to prepare himself for the pain that might arise during the absorption process.

After all, the Temporal Saint Dragon's sacrifice had hurt so much and had even caused all sorts of effects.

Although the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings did not have much power left, if anything went wrong, Yu Yuan estimated that he would still be in agony.

Considering the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' control over energy, Yu Yuan prepared to summon the Golden Dragon.

While the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings helped heal him, the Golden Dragon could also prepare to absorb the two Dragon Kings' bones.

"Grr?"

The Golden Dragon had been silently recovering from his injuries in the summoning space.

After all, his dragon body had suffered severe damage from the ice-fire energy during the descent.

Then he had slammed straight into the lakebed at the end, and it seemed he had twisted his neck a little.

However, upon sensing Yu Yuan's summon, the Golden Dragon still responded despite his serious injuries.

Thus, Yu Yuan saw a Golden Dragon with a crooked neck.

Good thing I held it together.

But Xiao Kong beside him began laughing.

"Pfft, hahahaha! Damn, there's actually a dragon with that kind of look."

"Grr!"

The Golden Dragon angrily bit at him.

Unfortunately, Xiao Kong had no physical body and was not afraid of physical damage.

Still, he knew when to stop, and he took the initiative to have the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings help the Golden Dragon sort through and absorb the ice-fire energy in his body.

Yu Yuan looked at the badly wounded Golden Dragon, who had still answered his summon.

He was deeply moved.

I've decided!

I won't raise you like a dog anymore!

From now on, I'll train and nurture you properly.

Mm, I'll start by taking him through basic training every day.

Or should I have him do push-ups and things like that every day?

Yu Yuan began considering a training plan for the Golden Dragon.

Not far away, the Golden Dragon, who was receiving supportive treatment, suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

Grr?

Is someone trying to harm me?

But after thinking about it, that seemed impossible. Aside from his master, he had barely met anyone. His master could not possibly be trying to harm him, right?

If the Golden Dragon knew that the result of pledging his life in loyalty was Yu Yuan arranging a long-term training regimen for him,

he would probably regret his desperate act of loyalty.

As the preliminary preparations came to an end,

Yu Yuan looked at the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' soul bones that the Golden Dragon had dug out.

The right arm bone from the Fire Dragon King shifted from dark red to scarlet gold, like a piece of red iron freshly retrieved from magma at the earth's core.

The surface of the bone was covered in flowing golden patterns, like trails of magma winding across the ground. Tiny sparks occasionally burst from within those patterns, burning bubbles into the lake water before slowly fading away.

The left arm bone from the Ice Dragon King was entirely translucent ice-blue, like cold jade carved from the heart of a ten-thousand-year glacier.

A layer of fine silver patterns covered its surface, shaped like branches of ice crystals. Under the faint light at the lakebed, they refracted fragmented rainbow hues.

As expected of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' soul bones. They looked quite high-quality.

Unlike Yu Yuan, the Ice Dragon King fell into thought as he looked at his and the Fire Dragon King's soul bones.

In the end, the Fire Dragon King and I still got dug up.

And it wasn't just our soul bones.

To maximize the value of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, their other bones were also about to be dug out and fed to the Golden Dragon as food.

Come to think of it.

Why was this dragon with the Golden Sacred Dragon Bloodline drooling?!

Who taught you that?!

"By the way, can I absorb these two soul bones now?"

Yu Yuan asked, because Xiao Kong had previously prevented him from absorbing the Wings of Time and Wings of Space on the grounds that his physique was not up to standard.

"Don't worry, Master! A large portion of the energy within the two Dragon Kings' soul bones has been sealed under Little Dragon's guidance."

After all, this was different from Xiao Kong's complete sacrifice.

The two Dragon Kings still retained a certain degree of control over their own soul bones.

Furthermore, most of the energy had been sealed through the divine position fragments within the soul bones.

And since ice and fire energy could offset one another, Yu Yuan should be able to complete the absorption.

"So there really was a problem with how you handled your sacrifice before."

"Hehe?"

There was no helping it. It had been his first sacrifice, and he had been in a bit of a hurry at the time. It was inevitable that a few problems would arise.

Xiao Kong had nearly died after directly rewinding ten thousand years. How could he have had the energy to deal with the soul bones produced after his sacrifice?

"Ho ho ho, kid, it's not too late to regret this now."

The Fire Dragon King spoke from the side. Even after being sealed, his and the Ice Dragon King's soul bones would not be so easy to absorb. After all, they had once possessed the strength of first-class gods.

"Hah. If I were scared, I wouldn't have come here."

It was clear from his performance in the other timeline that Yu Yuan had a streak of madness in his bones.

Otherwise, he could not possibly have fought one against three.

Anyway, he was getting it for free in this life, so what was there to fear?

I'll just install it while ignoring the risks!
