Just as the ferocious beasts stood there in confusion, Huo Yuhao (Electrolux) slowly spoke. "This is my Martial Soul space. There's no need to panic. This Martial Soul space contains the Law of Time, so no one can possibly discover this place."

The ferocious beasts had all suffered injuries of varying severity. The most seriously injured was the Silver Dragon King. She already had old wounds, and after taking a blow from the Asura Demon Sword, a super divine artifact, her condition had only worsened. Bi Ji began treating everyone.

A rather heavy voice slowly spoke. "Golden Dragon King, come here."

Just as Huo Yuhao approached, Electrolux and Tianmeng Ice Worm within his body both fell into slumber. Electrolux had overexerted himself too suddenly and injured his origin in his haste, while Tianmeng Ice Worm had merely lost too much energy and fallen unconscious. Huo Yuhao anxiously asked after Electrolux and Tianmeng Ice Worm. Hanging on by his last breath, Electrolux said to Huo Yuhao, "This old man is going to fall asleep, Yuhao. You can only rely on yourself now." Tianmeng Ice Worm had long since lost consciousness. Huo Yuhao spoke with a tremble in his voice, "Old Electrolux, Brother Tianmeng, don't abandon me!" Seeing that there was no hope of help, Huo Yuhao could only steel himself and walk toward the Silver Dragon King.

At that moment, the Golden Dragon King actually awakened. Perhaps the aftermath of the battle had roused him. "Kid, let me take control of your body. Don't be afraid. I won't harm you."

Silver Dragon King, your injuries are quite serious, aren't they?

"Golden Dragon King, I feel that my end is near. How did you escape the seal? And how did you end up inside this child's body?"

I don't know either, but there is one thing I can be certain of: the future of the Soul Beasts rests on this kid.

"What exactly is this child? He was actually able to withstand a god's attack."

That isn't important. You do not have much time left. I have a way to grant you immortality.

The Silver Dragon King spoke in surprise. "What way? Do you mean the two of us should fuse?"

Yes. That will create a new Dragon God. This Dragon God will contain both our consciousnesses, and we can jointly control this Dragon God's body.

"But why are you inside this child?"

This child's Martial Soul is extremely unusual. You have all seen it. His Martial Soul is called Void. This Martial Soul cannot obtain soul rings, but it can allow Soul Beasts to enter it and become his new Martial Souls. Then those Soul Beasts can produce soul rings for this child to use, up to a maximum of nine. I have already provided him with two soul rings.

If you and I fuse, he will surely become the new Dragon God and lead the Soul Beasts toward great prosperity.

"Hasn't the Dragon God's godhood been destroyed?"

It has been destroyed, but if you and I fuse, we can create a new Dragon God. Don't wait any longer. If we delay, your injuries will only worsen. Are you really going to watch helplessly as the Soul Beasts head toward extinction?

The Silver Dragon King said with difficulty, "Fine. Then let us fuse!"

Within the rift of the Forbidden Divine Land, rivers of golden and silver light intertwined wildly. The Golden Dragon King's dragon body coiled above the void, his scales seemingly forged from molten gold. Every scale flowed with a violent force capable of destroying all things. The shackles that had sealed him for a thousand years shattered inch by inch as his bloodline boiled, releasing piercing cracks. His dragon eyes were blood-red, carrying the fury and unwillingness born of imprisonment. His roar shook heaven and earth—it was the roar of power itself, seeking to release the oppression of countless years.

Mist from the Lake of Life rose into the air. Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, stood on the far side of the river of light, her silver hair cascading like moonlight. In her eyes surged the gentleness of Genesis Power and the weight of destiny. A faint silver glow enveloped her body, elemental power flowing around her fingertips, yet her exhaustion could not be concealed. To wait for this moment, she had slept for a thousand years, carrying the obsession of restoring the dragon race and hiding her helplessness toward this fate. When the Golden Dragon King's roar reached her, she lowered her eyes slightly, but the trails of light at her fingertips grew ever firmer. It was the responsibility of the Silver Dragon King, and also the final comfort she could offer the ancient Dragon God.

"Come." Gu Yuena's voice was as soft as a sigh, yet it pierced through the Golden Dragon King's roar and reached the depths of their divine souls. Before her words faded, the river of light around the Silver Dragon King suddenly surged, flooding toward the Golden Dragon King like a tide. Pale silver Genesis Power tried to envelop that restless golden blaze. Yet the Golden Dragon King abruptly broke free of the remaining seal. His dragon claw lashed out, and golden Destructive Power tore through the silver radiance like a blade, crushing toward the Silver Dragon King with irresistible ferocity.

The two ultimate powers collided in the void. There was no earth-shattering explosion, only silent annihilation and fusion. The golden Destructive Power tried to devour the silver radiance, but the instant it touched Genesis Power, it strangely froze for a moment. It was the resonance deep within their bloodlines, the bond of having once come from the same source countless years ago. Even after division and the erosion of time, it remained carved into the depths of their origins. The Golden Dragon King's roar gradually weakened. A trace of confusion flashed through his blood-red dragon eyes, as though he recalled the glory of the ancient God Realm and the searing agony of being slain.

Gu Yuena closed her eyes and allowed the silver river of light to completely coil around the Golden Dragon King's dragon body. Genesis Power seeped into every crevice of his golden scales like spring rain, soothing the restless origin of destruction. She could clearly feel the rage and pain within the Golden Dragon King's divine soul—the torment of a thousand years of sealing, the loneliness of losing his kin. Her divine soul slowly reached out and embraced his. At that moment, fragments of memories from countless years ago surged forth like a tide: the majesty of the ancient Dragon God, the brutality of the God Realm war, the pain of their divine souls being torn apart during the split, the long years they had spent separated...

"We were once one." Gu Yuena's divine soul whispered, filled with boundless compassion. The Golden Dragon King's divine soul trembled violently, and his savage power gradually receded. The golden river of light no longer crushed forward madly. Instead, it slowly intertwined with the silver river like twin vines climbing upward. His dragon body gradually became translucent within the light. The molten-gold scales broke apart one by one, transforming into pure destructive origin that seeped into and nourished the Silver Dragon King's origin of creation.

Above the void, the two enormous dragon phantoms gradually overlapped. The Golden Dragon King's fierceness and the Silver Dragon King's restraint clashed and fused. Destructive Power was no longer pure destruction; it now carried a trace of Genesis Power. Genesis Power was no longer merely gentle protection; it gained the edge of destruction. From within the rivers of light came the Golden Dragon King's unwilling growls from time to time, followed by the Silver Dragon King's soft sighs. The two voices intertwined, a farewell to the past and a call for rebirth.

Gu Yuena's silver hair and the Golden Dragon King's scales intertwined within the river of light, forming a cocoon. The collision of their divine souls brought unbearable pain, yet also made their origins increasingly compatible. She could feel the Golden Dragon King's power surging through her body. That violent force was slowly tamed by her Genesis Power, becoming an edge she could control. The Golden Dragon King could also feel the Silver Dragon King's gentleness, her heavy destiny and obsession giving his once-pure power bonds and responsibility.

When the final traces of golden and silver light completely fused, the cocoon above the void suddenly bloomed with dazzling radiance. It possessed both the majesty to destroy all things and the gentleness to create all things. The cocoon slowly shattered, revealing a brand-new figure standing in the void. His dragon horns bore both gold and silver, his scales flowed like a starry sky, and his eyes held both the Golden Dragon King's sharpness and the Silver Dragon King's depth. The aura of the ancient Dragon God slowly spread forth, yet it was no longer the same as before. It was the fusion of gold and silver, the resonance of fierceness and restraint, the end of destiny, and the beginning of rebirth.

The new Dragon God slowly raised his hand. Golden and silver light intertwined at his fingertips as he looked toward the distant heavens and earth. He carried the memories and power of the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King, as well as the future of the dragon race. At that moment, it was as though he heard the sigh of the ancient Dragon God from countless years ago, and the final whispers of the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King. All their unwillingness, helplessness, and obsessions transformed within the light of fusion into the resolve of rebirth.
