"Fine! I'd like to see what gives you the nerve to spout such nonsense, brat!"

Di Tian laughed furiously. He thrust out his hand, black dragon scales covering it as it instantly transformed into a dragon claw. Then he punched at his opponent.

Facing Di Tian, a true dragon, Mo Yuan naturally wouldn't foolishly compete with him in strength.

His advantage lay precisely in the various technologies Di Tian had never seen before.

He slammed Stellar Sea Harmony against the ground, instantly unleashing the authority to control gravity. A black domain spread out, and within it, gravity was amplified a hundredfold in an instant. At the same time, several powerful sources of gravity were created, tugging at Di Tian from different directions.

Di Tian felt as though he had fallen into a quagmire. Even moving was difficult, making it impossible for him to get close to Mo Yuan.

"Interesting."

Space Power surged around Di Tian. He vanished from where he stood, and in the next moment, the sound of something tearing through the air came from behind Mo Yuan. The dragon claw was about to touch his hair.

Mo Yuan wasn't afraid in the slightest. A golden Soul Guidance Shield unfolded, and when Di Tian's punch smashed into it, it only shattered the shield, unable to advance even an inch farther.

Mo Yuan used the momentum to widen the distance. On the little finger of his right hand, a ring gradually shattered and turned into metallic dust, scattering into the waves.

"A Level-Nine Soul Guidance Shield Generator?"

Di Tian was no stranger to this type of Soul Tool. After all, he had dealt with humans quite a bit over the past ten thousand years, and this Soul Guidance Shield Generator was one of the most common types.

However, when he looked at Mo Yuan, he was utterly stunned. At some point, each of Mo Yuan's other nine fingers had acquired a ring identical to the one before.

In other words, counting the one that had just shattered, he had a total of ten Level-Nine Soul Guidance Shield Generators!

Mo Yuan smiled. "Keep going, Di Tian. I may not have much else, but I have plenty of Soul Tools."

"Good, good, good! I'd like to see how many Soul Tools you have for me to wear down!"

Di Tian repeated his previous move. He released his Space Power and teleported to Mo Yuan's side once again.

"Crack—"

Another ring shattered, but Mo Yuan pressed a pistol against Di Tian's chest.

What?

Di Tian's scalp prickled. He could sense a power from that pistol that even he feared.

"Bang—"

A massive burst of fire flashed, and Di Tian was sent flying by Mo Yuan's shot.

A pair of dragon wings spread from Di Tian's back. After finally halting his backward momentum, he darkly pulled open his robe. In the very center of his chest, a shattered black dragon scale lay quietly.

"Damn it!"

If he hadn't made a split-second decision and dispersed the force by flying backward, this blow would have done far more than shatter a single dragon scale.

"What a pity."

Mo Yuan put away the Mimetic Judgement of Shamash. He had finally seized such a good opportunity, but Di Tian's reaction had been unexpectedly fast.

Now that this strike had failed, it would be nearly impossible to get another opportunity this good.

However, that thought merely flashed through his mind. In the next moment, three purple Soul Rings appeared beside him.

First Soul Skill · Control of Gold!

Second Soul Skill · Boiling of Gold!

Third Soul Skill · Sacrifice of Gold!

The golden elements around them began to burn frenziedly, transforming into pure Soul Power that Mo Yuan absorbed. One Soul Tool after another was created from the void, and in the blink of an eye, an iron fortress formed around him.

Eight Level-Nine Soul Guidance Cannons simultaneously took aim at Di Tian from atop the fortress.

Besides those, there were also more than a hundred Soul Tool Ray Guns of various levels, both large and small.

In the next moment, all kinds of Soul Guidance Rays fired together, rendering the surrounding air bizarre and multicolored.

Paralyzing Rays, Corrosive Rays, Weakening Rays, Piercing Rays... Every kind was present.

Facing this outpouring rain of light, Di Tian's pride prevented him from choosing to evade. Instead, he took it head-on.

He waved his hand, and Dark Power condensed into a wall of darkness, blocking all the Soul Guidance Rays.

Then he thrust his hand forward. The wall of darkness folded back and transformed into a hundred-meter-long blade of light that cleaved through the sea and raced straight toward Mo Yuan.

Mo Yuan was no less impressive. The muzzles of the eight Level-Nine Soul Guidance Cannons that had been charging for a long time simultaneously blazed with terrifying light. In the next moment, eight super-Douluo-level beams roared forth.

While flying, the beams continued to intertwine and absorb all the energy around them, constantly increasing their own power.

Finally, the beams collided with Di Tian's Blade of Darkness. Endless light and heat erupted from the clash, steaming the clouds and mist before both sides finally vanished into thin air.

Di Tian was preparing to pursue the advantage, but in the next moment, that same scalp-prickling sensation struck him. His body reacted instinctively.

His body vanished without warning, replaced by a black dragon several hundred meters long.

Less than a millisecond after he transformed into the giant dragon, a bullet wrapped in purple lightning struck the spot where his heart had been in human form.

However, after Di Tian returned to his true form, that spot had become his hind leg.

"Roar—"

Di Tian let out a pained dragon's roar. Wherever the bullet passed, his dragon scales and flesh offered no defense at all. The lightning tore straight through them, and the bullet pierced his left hind leg, leaving behind a small hole less than ten centimeters in diameter.

Mo Yuan shook his head and put away the Key of Judgment · Seven Thunders of Absolution. The Soul Tool fortress around him vanished along with it, while the effect of the third Soul Skill, Sacrifice of Gold, replenished his Soul Power.

At this moment, Seven Thunders of Absolution was in the form of a sniper rifle. Mo Yuan had deliberately used eight linked Level-Nine Soul Guidance Cannons to conceal this fatal attack.

Unfortunately, he had still underestimated the reaction speed of this super old geezer, Di Tian.

Although Seven Thunders of Absolution could ionize targets at the atomic level, making Di Tian's defenses as fragile as paper, its damage range was limited. A bullet less than a centimeter in diameter obviously couldn't cause any substantial damage to a dragon body hundreds of meters long.

And afterward, it would be unlikely that he could find another opportunity like that.

After all, his current fighting style relied mostly on catching his opponent off guard.

"Human, although I don't know where you got so many strange and powerful Soul Tools, it's over. I won't give you another chance."

A cold glint flashed through Di Tian's golden dragon eyes. He opened his mouth, and endless Dark Power gathered before he spat out a dragon breath.

This was his full-power strike. Even a Quasi-God-level Limit Douluo would absolutely not dare to take it head-on.

Wherever the dark dragon breath passed, even space began to tremble. It tore apart everything blocking its path and flew straight toward Mo Yuan.

"Perfect timing!"

A knight's spear appeared in Mo Yuan's hand, primarily white and interwoven with black.

Mimetic Key of Creation · Abyss Flower!

He activated the authority belonging to the Herrscher of Reason and chanted at the same time:

"I am the black that devours all. I am the white that gives birth to all. Born before creation, existing after annihilation!"

"Abyss Flower, First Rated Power · Spear of Salvation Blossoms!"
