The Gravely Wounded Asura God!

The Sea God gazed at the gathering power of Chaos and instinctively swallowed.

What terrifying pressure...

It seemed several times stronger than Rey's attack just now!

Just who was this person?!

But then he sneered.

What was there to fear?

The Asura God King was no pushover!

At that moment, above and below the Heavenly Screen, countless eyes were riveted on this battle.

Especially on the Douluo Continent!

Everyone understood-

If they lost this battle, they would be utterly finished!!!

With even the Sea God and a God King trampled underfoot, how could mortals like them survive?

When that happened, wouldn't the Soul Masters of the Douluo Continent be toyed with to death by those people?!

They would even be mocked for the rest of their lives!

The backbone of an entire generation would be broken beneath this defeat!

So, Lord Asura God-

You must not lose! You must not lose! You must not lose!!

Suddenly.

Something changed in the image!

Everyone looked over at once.

At the center of the eight crimson crystalline wings, the interwoven crimson-and-black radiance of the gathering power of Chaos spun wildly, its volume shrinking again and again, its density compressing further and further.

Finally, it reached its critical point!

The next second!

"BOOM-!!!"

The power of Chaos blasted out in an instant!!!

A beam of crimson-and-black Annihilation Light tore across the sky. Everywhere it passed, space shattered inch by inch and seawater was utterly annihilated, as though every law between heaven and earth had ceased to function before this strike.

Because Chaos had existed before laws were ever born!

The next second, the two collided and instantly exploded!

Crimson-and-black radiance erupted with a thunderous roar, violent shock waves surging one after another until they covered the entire Heavenly Screen!

Within the interwoven crimson-and-black light, the golden sword's silhouette flickered in and out. No one could make out how the battle was going.

Countless Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent stared fixedly, waiting for the result.

It was the same on the Holy Spirit Continent.

After all.

Both sides were at the God King Level!

The Asura God, foremost of the Five Great God Kings, presided over slaughter and had held the Divine Realm in check for ages.

As for the one facing him...

The younger generation of the Holy Spirit Continent could not say for certain either.

Could the Asura God King stand on equal footing with the Chaos Demon Lord Soronson?

To tell the truth.

No one knew.

Because only veterans who had lived for fifty thousand years were qualified to have witnessed the Chaos Demon Lord Soronson in action!

Those had been the years fifty thousand years ago when he followed the Lord into battle across the lands.

But the Holy Spirit Continent of today had enjoyed peace for a long time.

People like them had never seen it at all!

So...

They could not be sure either!

But soon:

They became sure...

At that moment, the Heavenly Screen returned to normal.

Everyone looked over.

Sea God Island.

Huge fragments of the Asura Demon Sword studded the ground!

That pitch-black giant sword, which had blotted out the sky and sun and crushed the wills of hundreds of millions of living beings.

Now it lay scattered across the ground in hundreds upon thousands of pieces, its blood-red markings extinguished, as dull as scrap iron.

And the bloody hue that had stained half the sky instantly dispersed.

That pressure from the Divine Realm, belonging to the foremost of the Five Great God Kings, vanished completely!

The result needed no further words.

The Asura God had lost!

And-

He had lost without even managing to bring his sword down!

At the sight, countless Soul Masters on the Holy Spirit Continent instantly felt their blood boil!

[Meng Jiu: A God King? That's it?]

[Old Wang: We don't need a second move to beat you!]

[Xiao Tian: Talking the toughest talk, taking the harshest beating!]

[Zhou Yueban: Whether they're Soul Masters or gods, everyone on the Douluo Continent sucks! They're too weak!]

[Wei Lai: Trash Soul Masters produce trash gods. I thought you could actually fight, but you're not worth a single hair on our Lord Chaos Demon Lord Soronson!]

Those on the Douluo Continent did not know what to say.

Not a single word appeared on the Heavenly Screen.

Yet that very silence revealed endless despair and sorrow.

Only after an unknown length of time did countless people come to their senses.

They had lost.

Lost!!!

Even their last hope!

Their god, and even their God King, had lost!

[Yu Xiaogang: Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could a God King lose? I must be dreaming. Yes, I'm definitely dreaming. Hehe... hehehe...]

[Yu Yuanzhen: I must not have slept well. My eyes are playing tricks on me... How is this possible? My eyes must be playing tricks!]

[Bibi Dong: Wh-who exactly is this person attacking from the shadows?! How could they be so overpowering!]

The Divine Realm.

"Pfft-agh-!"

The Asura God violently coughed up a great mouthful of divine blood and toppled stiffly to the ground!

Horrified, the other four God Kings all rushed forward to catch him.

The God of Life immediately channeled her Life Divine Power, enveloping the Asura God's body in gentle green light.

But the instant she probed inside him, her hand trembled slightly.

"What terrifying power..."

For the first time, her voice took on a grave tone.

"After entering his body, this power instantly destroyed all his internal organs and threw all his divine power into reverse turmoil. I can't seal off the source. I can only barely sustain his divine body!"

"And this was only a strike delivered across two planes..."

She paused, then spoke each word distinctly.

"If the Asura God hadn't cast his divine skill from the Divine Realm, with the separation between planes to cushion the blow, if he had taken this strike face-to-face..."

She did not finish.

But all four God Kings present understood.

The God of Destruction's face was livid as he slowly spoke.

"What terrifying power."

"Merely watching through the Heavenly Screen, even I felt despair... fear."

"I haven't tasted such a feeling in all these ages."

The God King of Goodness and the Evil God King exchanged a glance and nodded together.

It was far too overpowering.

Only after recovering for a long time did the Asura God struggle to his feet.

He did not speak.

Because what the other God Kings had described was what they had witnessed.

But at the moment he exchanged blows head-on with that mysterious person.

What he had felt was a boundless, unfathomably deep power!

That was not a measure of fighting strength. It was an ocean.

He had not even touched the other party's shore!

He was no match.

Had his true body gone down there.

He would already have died when that strike landed.

Yet even so, across two planes, the other party's power had inflicted such wounds on both him and the true body of the Asura Demon Sword.

He slowly lowered his head and looked at the Asura Demon Sword in his hand.

Several cracks were clearly visible across its blade, stark as ravines!

This supreme treasure of slaughter, which had accompanied him through ages of battle and slain countless powerful foes.

Someone had cracked it with a single strike across planes!

"So this is the Holy Spirit Continent's hidden strength..."

The Asura God gripped the sword's hilt tightly, his knuckles turning white.

Suddenly, he remembered something, and his gaze abruptly sharpened.

The one who stopped my Divine Sense from seeing the Holy Spirit Continent's precise location back then.

Was it this mysterious person too?!

Two clashes, two obstructions. That being lurking in the shadows was unfathomable.

After a long while, the Asura God narrowed his eyes and suppressed the surging injuries within his body. A voice wrapped in divine power traveled down to the lower realm.

Meanwhile, on Sea God Island.

From deep within the dispersing red clouds overhead came a weak voice.

"Cough, cough... cough, cough..."

"To think I actually lost... and so utterly!"

"Do you dare show your true body and let me get a good look at you?!"

Before his words had faded.

A voice rang out from every direction at once.

"Then take a good look at what I look like."

"The next time we meet, kowtow with every step as you approach me!"
