The voice of the Destruction God King struck Tang San's heart like a cold hammer of judgment.
"That killing god in the lower realm may not be as powerful as the Golden Dragon King, but his combat wisdom, killing instinct, and unparalleled control over his own power... far surpass that beast that only knows destruction."
" Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong are nothing more than two pseudo-gods who were forcibly elevated to the God Level by relying on external forces."
"Before a true, flesh-bodied god who has proven his path through battle, the power they have fused is nothing more than..."
The Destruction God King paused slightly, a cruel smile flashing in his purple eyes.
"Just a better whetstone."
Sea God Tang San fell silent.
His imposing figure remained upright, but for the first time, a clear sense of wavering and an indescribable apprehension was reflected in his deep, ocean-like eyes.
The Destruction God King's words struck a nerve, hitting a truth he was unwilling to acknowledge deep within his heart.
He witnessed firsthand Toji Shen'er crushed Huo Yuhao with pure strength and skill, how he disregarded the laws of the mind, how he shattered the Ultimate Ice, and how he confronted the divine artifact head-on...
That fighting style, that absolute confidence in controlling one's own power, that pure fighting spirit burning solely in the pursuit of breaking through limits...
This is indeed another path.
A path rejected and forgotten by the rules of the Divine Realm, yet it grew wildly in some corner, eventually blossoming into a world-shaking flower.
He could not refute the example given by the Destruction God King regarding the Golden Dragon King. That imprisoned Ferocious Beast was the best proof of the terrifying power that could be unleashed when physical strength reached its peak.
And Toji before us...
It seems they are rushing headlong down a similar yet more dangerous and purer path in the mortal realm.
Tang San's gaze returned to the Subduing Dragon Plain, his expression incredibly complex.
He saw his daughter and son-in-law's tightly clasped hands, and he saw the Haodong Power rising and resonating between them. That power was indeed magnificent, and it did briefly allow them to touch the pinnacle of the mortal realm.
But... is that really enough?
The Subduing Dragon Plain, the deathly silent center of the battlefield.
The azure light of Life had dissipated, leaving only a faint ocean scent in the air.
Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong embraced tightly, their hearts intertwined with the relief of surviving the ordeal and the deep-seated hatred. Without a word, the Haodong Power surged between their clasped hands, like two converging rivers, unleashing a boundless force beyond limits.
Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eyes were as deep as the cosmos, and his Spiritual Power spread out like a tangible tide.
Tang Wutong's Light Dragon God Butterfly were holy and splendid, and her sacred dragon might was boiling like lava.
Under the frenzied amplification of the Haodong Power, the auras of the two soared, merged, and underwent a qualitative change as if riding a rocket.
A terrifying pressure that transcended the limits of the mortal God Level descended with a deafening roar.
At this moment, the two of them were undoubtedly the pinnacle of the mortal realm.
The two gods are one, their power is limitless.
A deafening cheer erupted from the direction of the Star Luo Empire.
It was as if they could see the dawn of victory.
The Sun Moon Empire fell into a depressing silence, the soldiers staring at the figure that seemed to descend like a god, their eyes filled with fear.
However, their opponent, Toji, casually slung the Soul Liberation Blade, which Entanglement with endless vengeful spirits, over his broad shoulder; the dark red blade flowed with viscous blood.
Faced with the God Level pressure that would make any Limit Douluo tremble, Toji only showed no fear, but instead grinned with an excited, almost ferocious, smile.
Those beast-like eyes burned with an unprecedented, pure, and intense desire and fighting spirit.
"Good, very good." Toji's voice was low and hoarse, like a volcano about to erupt, "That's the feeling, this... oppressive feeling that can crush everything!"
He could clearly feel that the surging Bloodline Power within his body, already at its limit, was being stimulated by this unprecedentedly powerful external pressure, like a ignited powder keg, frantically impacting the invisible bottleneck that stood before Level 99.
Each impact brought excruciating, tearing pain, yet was accompanied by an intense, exhilarating surge of power.
The bottleneck is loosening! That solid barrier, under the terrifying pressure of attacks from both inside and outside, is groaning under its unbearable strain, and cracks are spreading.
He wished the other side were stronger.
The stronger he is, the greater the pressure, and the closer he is to a breakthrough.
This battle had long transcended victory or defeat; it had become his only stepping stone to a higher realm.
"Come on, let me see how much of a surprise your so-called God Level fusion can bring me."
Toji slowly lowered the Soul Liberation Blade from his shoulder, its tip pointing diagonally at the ground, its dark red blade light flickering uncertainly, like the fangs of Ferocious Beast awakening.
His body leaned slightly forward, every muscle taut like a fully drawn bowstring, and a violent surge of Bloodline Power burst forth, forming a distorted, crimson force field behind him, like a lava hell.
The bottleneck at Level 99 has loosened; it's just one step away from breaking through!
The deathly silence of the Subduing Dragon Plain was shattered by a sudden burst of divine majesty that seemed to tear the heavens apart!
Between Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong's tightly clasped hands, the Haodong Power surged to its limit, like two galaxies colliding violently!
A blinding, brilliant golden light erupted from Huo Yuhao's body and shot straight into the sky.
The light was so intense that it tore a huge crack in the thick, smoky clouds in the sky, and a purer, more vast golden light, like a spear of divine punishment, crashed down from the heavens and precisely poured into Huo Yuhao.
The extremely dense, impenetrable ice mist, centered on Huo Yuhao, spread out like a shockwave, freezing the very space it passed through.
At the same time, Tang Wutong's figure completely dissolved in the golden light, as if transforming into pure energy, perfectly merging with Huo Yuhao.
Huge dragon wings, flowing with ice blue and gold light, suddenly spread out behind Huo Yuhao, each scale shimmering with divine luster.
His Ice Extreme War God Armor seemed to come alive under the influence of the fused energy, flowing with runes that blended icy blue and golden light.
His figure seemed unchanged inside the armor, but the aura emanating from the gaps in the armor had undergone a complete transformation.
In the void, the merged figures took a step forward.
Silver ripples spread across the space, and the figure instantly traversed a thousand meters, appearing directly in front of Toji.
The moment the golden beam of light descending from the sky completely merged into Huo Yuhao's body, Toji his beast-like pupils suddenly contracted.
He sensed that his opponent had completely changed.
No longer two separate entities, but a sacred light body that merges the Ultimate Ice, the Light Dragon God, and the vast Spiritual Power.
That aura had completely transcended the realm of the mortal, carrying a chilling pressure that truly touched the divine realm.
