Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting - Chapter 1756: The Truth Revealed

Chapter 1756: Chapter 1756: The Truth Revealed

The Dragon God’s gaze fixed once more upon the three God Kings, including the Asura God, the light of the Ascending Dragon Pillar in his hand gradually fading, finally merging into the Dragon God’s body.

At this moment, the Dragon God finally spoke, “Asura.”

The Asura God trembled at this tranquil call, bowed his head and said, “Master.”

The Dragon God smiled tragically, two lines of tears streaming down his cheeks, “This scene, is something I never anticipated. Originally, I thought our Realm of the Dragon God had possessed a foundation to endure eternally, yet unexpectedly, the achievement of the Divine Planet would lead to this outcome.”

“Remember several things: first, even if the Divine Realm shines once more in the future, do not attempt to achieve the Divine Planet without finding a definite method first. The madness and the resulting tragedy occurred because we violated the law of the universe. The universe’s laws should not easily allow the achievement of a Divine Planet. All of this seems destined by some hidden force. Compared to the universe’s laws, we are ultimately too weak.”

“Second, I’ve swallowed all resentment within me, along with the hatred and all negative emotions I generated, sealing them in my body. A long time is needed to wear them down until they gradually vanish. You will soon cleave my body; the part belonging to benevolence will depart, preserving a sliver of hope for my clan. The portion belonging to malice should be suppressed in the Divine Realm, to be worn away by time.”

“Master, you…” The Asura God was somewhat dazed; at this moment, the Dragon God seemed not only fully rational but had chosen a method beyond their imagination.

The Dragon God waved his hand, stopping him from speaking, “Let me continue. I now divide my emotions into two; who speaks to you is the benevolent part. My time is limited. Once malice erupts, the Divine Realm will cease to exist, and even the universe may face a catastrophe. So, follow what I said.”

“All these tragedies, the fault lies only with me. After I die, unless the Dragon Clan revives and the Dragon God reappears, the beast clan must not be allowed to achieve godhood in the Divine Realm. Since this tragedy was caused by us, we must bear this punishment. The extinction of my clan also led to the demise of many other clans. I hope this hatred can gradually fade after my departure.”

“Yes.” The Asura God answered respectfully.

In this moment, watching all of this, Lan Xuanyu suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment, finally understanding why the beast clan could never become gods, and why even the immensely powerful Golden-eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian could not achieve godhood. All of this wasn’t due to the previous Divine Realm’s seal, but because of the Dragon God.

The Dragon God’s refusal to let the beast clan achieve godhood was chiefly due to the tragedy caused, where too many gods perished, the Dragon Clan was wiped out, almost all beast gods were killed; yet, they also slaughtered countless gods of other races and human gods. How could this hatred not be remembered? Without the Dragon God, without the protection of the Dragon Clan, it was already exceedingly difficult for the beast clan to achieve godhood; even if they did, they likely wouldn’t meet a good end within the Divine Realm. Thus, it might be better not to become gods until the day the Dragon God returns.

“Use your Asura Sword to cleave my body. The era belonging to the Dragon Clan is over. You must take care of yourselves. Don’t repeat past mistakes. If one day I can return…, no, I won’t return. If my successor can return, he must be able to lead you to contest the existence of the Divine Planet once more.”

“Master…” The three God Kings cried out in grief, simultaneously kneeling before the Dragon God.

At this time, they no longer held any resentment for the Dragon God.

The awakened Dragon God did not seek revenge but stabilized the Divine Realm instead, taking all negative emotions of the Divine Realm along with his own death and sealing them away. He was ultimately the one who created the Divine Realm and led the Realm of the Dragon God to glory—a generation of Dragon God!

“The mistake is made, and it cannot be undone. Come forth.”

Blood-red light soared to the sky, the Asura Sword emerged once more.

The Dragon God had no time left; his sealing had completed, his body must be cleaved first and foremost to truly finish sealing all resentment.

The Asura God raised the Asura Sword once again, full of mixed emotions.

Before him was the Dragon God, tranquil, walking toward the edge of the Asura Sword!

No Dragon Air, no defenses. The Dragon God walked step by step toward the Asura Sword, crossing each step.

The edge of the sword finally fell. A passionate dragon roar suddenly resounded throughout the Divine Realm.

As the dragon roar rang out, all gods lowered their heads in unison. Despite the great battle bringing much loss to the Dragon Clan, making them unwilling to kneel to their former master, the Supreme God King, they couldn’t resist bowing in farewell amidst the roar.

It wasn’t a single dragon roar but two; a golden and silver light soared into the sky. Then, a burst of nine-colored light exploded in the sky, causing the bodies of all dragon kin to ascend, merging into that nine-colored brilliance.

“Farewell, Divine Realm!” The Dragon God’s vast voice echoed. In the next instant, the golden light fell abruptly, while the silver light silently vanished.

Only the nine-colored light spiraled in the sky for a long time before transforming into a nine-colored meteor, flying toward the distant horizon.

The scene stopped abruptly here, everything seemingly becoming entirely still in Lan Xuanyu’s perceptions and vision.

And this unfolding scene finally allowed him to realize what had truly occurred in the Divine Realm of old. Why such a powerful Dragon Clan ultimately met its decline.

The Asura Sword cleaved the Dragon God’s two incarnations. The silver one was his mother, also the Silver Dragon King. She inherited the Dragon God’s element control and the benevolence within the Dragon God’s heart.

While the golden one was composed of all malice and madness the Dragon God contained with his Dragon Power, as well as countless resentments in this battle, ultimately transforming into the Golden Dragon King suppressed in the Dragon Realm. Later, amidst another upheaval of the Divine Realm, the Golden Dragon King emerged. At that time, the Divine Realm’s Supreme God King was his grandfather, Sea God Tang San. The Golden Dragon King was ultimately slain by Tang San using the Asura Blood Sword, yet his resentment did not completely dissipate, injecting the essence of the Golden Dragon King into his father, Tang Wulin. This led to the later Legend of Dragon King on Soul Land.

(For the story of the upheaval of the Divine Realm, please refer to my work, “Douluo Dalu: Legend of the Divine Realm”)

What he inherited was precisely the bloodline of the former Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King. The reason why these two bloodlines caused him such trouble, all origins lay in the immense tragedy that once occurred in the Divine Realm.

Aside from a deep sigh, his heart at this moment was filled with sadness. Dragon God! Such a powerful Dragon God, such a mighty Supreme God King. Yet, he ultimately met this fate.

He finally understood why the Dragon God himself did not wish to revive. In a certain sense, reaching the cultivation of the Dragon God made even dying a difficult thing. Revival had too many opportunities and possibilities.

However, he was unwilling to come back because he refused to face the tragedy that once transpired. His wife and son were both dead. If not for the bond of a possible revival of the Dragon Clan, perhaps the Dragon God himself would have let himself completely perish long ago, to be reborn to seek his wife.

And now, this hope has fallen on him, resulting in this trial.

Just as he once said to the Asura God, if one day the Dragon God’s legacy returns then it must mean he has found a way to solve the Divine Planet. And this trial for himself is thus so weighty.
