When It Came to Physical Attacks, I, Madara, Would Call You the Strongest

The Dragon God Claw was a divine technique the Dragon God himself had taught Di Tian when he served as his personal guard.

It was a true killing move of the Dragon God, imbued with a terrifying law of destruction.

With one swipe, it could tear open the void and rip any enemy apart.

No attack meant anything against his Dragon God Claw.

Most importantly, it required no time to charge. Its only limitation was that he could use it at most three times.

The claw appeared out of thin air and shot toward Madara Uchiha's back, fast and ruthless to the extreme.

But then—

"Limbo: Border Jail!"

The ripples in Madara's Rinnegan twisted.

An invisible shadow silently appeared behind him in the darkness and crossed its arms to block the claw head-on.

Clang!

A terrifying collision rang through heaven and earth as the Dragon God Claw struck the Limbo: Border Jail shadow.

Madara Uchiha was completely unaffected.

Di Tian's pupils contracted. He could see nothing, yet something had stopped his Dragon God Claw.

"What did you do?"

"You don't need to know."

Madara's voice came from the darkness, devoid of emotion.

"Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees!"

The earth began to quake violently as countless thick, ancient trees burst from beneath the ground.

Their dense branches and leaves instantly filled Di Tian's dark domain.

Enormous flowers bloomed in their canopies, releasing alluring pollen.

The pollen spread through Di Tian's dark domain. As he breathed it in, hallucinations seized him at once.

"A mind-bewitching Soul Skill?"

Di Tian roared. His soul power surged, forcibly shattering the illusion.

But in that very instant—

"Chibaku Tensei."

Madara Uchiha formed Hand Seals and pointed toward the sky. A black sphere rose from his palm and hovered in midair.

The next moment, terrifying gravity erupted from it. Rocks, trees, soil, and even the power of darkness within Di Tian's domain were dragged toward the sphere.

Di Tian's massive dragon body was caught in its pull too, flying toward it against his will.

"That damned power of rules again! What exactly is your Martial Soul?

"What are those eyes of yours?"

Di Tian struggled desperately, his claws tearing through space as he tried to break free of the gravitational pull.

But Chibaku Tensei's gravity was too strong. The more he struggled, the tighter it held him.

Countless layers of earth and stone wrapped around him. Soon, an enormous rocky sphere thousands of meters across hung in the air, sealing Di Tian completely inside.

"Break!"

Di Tian's furious roar came from within. Dark-golden light shone through cracks in the rock, and the entire sphere shook violently.

He battered the seal with all his strength. With more than eight hundred thousand years of cultivation, Chibaku Tensei could not hold him for long.

Madara Uchiha knew that too. He could sense how strong Di Tian was.

Though his Rinnegan overwhelmed him, the powerful beings of this world were not to be underestimated.

So he intended to show Di Tian the respect he deserved.

"Tengai Shinsei."

Madara Uchiha folded his arms across his chest, brimming with confidence.

The sky darkened. A meteorite over two hundred meters wide hurtled toward the Chibaku Tensei sphere, trailing a blazing tail of fire.

Boom!

The meteorite struck the rocky sphere in midair with a heaven-shaking crash.

The impact smashed open Chibaku Tensei's seal, and Di Tian burst from the rock. But before he could catch his breath, a second meteorite followed close behind.

"There's another one?!"

Di Tian's pupils shrank. He raised his dragon claws with all his might to meet it.

Bang!

Di Tian shattered the meteorite with one swipe, but its tremendous impact and terrifying heat slammed him out of the sky. He crashed into the ground, gouging a deep pit, while molten rock burned much of his body.

Di Tian crawled out of the pit covered in wounds. Dark-golden dragon blood stained his entire body, most of his scales had shattered, and one wing hung limp, clearly badly injured.

But Di Tian's eyes had turned red. Rage burned within him.

He could accept defeat at the hands of the Evil Emperor, his master, or even a god. But he could not accept losing to a level-95 Super Douluo—especially when his opponent was treating him like a weakling. That was unbearable.

"Sun and Moon Radiance!"

Di Tian roared. Darkness and dragon power intertwined around him, forming a shield that combined offense and defense.

Within the shield, the power of darkness continuously healed his wounds while gathering destructive force. He was going to risk everything.

"Black Dragon Flame!"

The ultimate fire of darkness erupted across Di Tian's body and clung to his dragon scales, turning him into a mass of black flame.

Dragging his battered dragon body, Di Tian charged at Madara Uchiha with dragon flames that could burn anything to ash and the power of destruction.

He meant to close the distance and deliver the final blow with his Dragon God Claw.

But as Madara watched him charge, not a ripple stirred in his Rinnegan.

"Truth-Seeking Orbs."

Nine black spheres emerged behind Madara and slowly revolved around him.

Formed from Yin-Yang Release, these spheres could erase all matter and ninjutsu—or, in this world, Soul Skills.

Madara Uchiha himself found it strange. He had never mastered Truth-Seeking Orbs, an ability of the Six Paths level, yet his Rinnegan now possessed them innately.

Clearly, being summoned here by his original self had strengthened him in every way.

He set the nine Truth-Seeking Orbs spinning before him. Di Tian's dark dragon flames struck the shield they formed and were instantly erased without a trace.

"Impossible!"

Despair appeared in Di Tian's eyes. None of his attacks worked against this human, while every attack the human made dealt him a grievous blow.

An undying body, limitless Soul Power, a strange and powerful bloodline, and abilities that defied the heavens.

He was Di Tian, an eight-hundred-thousand-year-old Ferocious Beast, a former personal guard of the Dragon God, a being above the gods. Yet a level-95 human had utterly overwhelmed him.

"I refuse to accept this!"

It was more than that. If he did not fight with everything he had, he would die.

Di Tian began burning his life force, refining his bloodline. He was the son of the Dark Dragon King and the Light Dragon King, born with an incomparably noble bloodline. It had merely been suppressed after he came to Douluo Continent.

Now he unleashed it completely. His strength was already approaching the level of a true god.

"Dragon God Claw!"

Di Tian poured everything he had into a single strike.

That claw held the entirety of his eight hundred thousand years of cultivation, the Dragon God's law of destruction, and divine power condensed from his own lifeblood.

Di Tian believed this strike would tear everything apart. It was powerful enough to kill a god-level being.
