Alternate space, Douluo Star.
Apart from Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo, who had become the masters of the plane.
As well as Bibi Dong and Lan Fozi, who had reached the divine realm, and Qian Daoliu, who had broken through to first-level Angel God as Qian Renxue's kin—everyone else had fallen into a deep sleep.
The sudden appearance of a God King aura on Douluo Star startled everyone present.
"You… how did you all come back?" Bibi Dong asked first, her face full of surprise.
Although she was worried about her daughter, she should still be fighting the Asura God right now, right?
Had they won?
The Life God King, the Kindness God King, Tokisaki Kurumi, Gu Yuena, and Di Tian were all here too.
The main force had all returned victorious.
They hadn't won yet?
"We couldn't keep up with the pace of the battle."
Qian Renxue's mouth twitched slightly.
Now even God Kings could no longer intervene in the fight.
Just a moment ago, if not for Gu Yuena gathering everyone's divine power through the Dragon God Heart and fusing it with Di Tian, transforming him into the Glazed Holy Sword that surpassed super-divine weapons, everyone would probably have been wiped out in that one strike.
Of course, there was also the factor that Tokisaki Kurumi herself had broken through to God King and reached the supreme level.
But they still couldn't defeat the Asura God.
Even with the Asura God currently weakened, the result was the same.
"Is Rongrong back?"
Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo looked toward Tokisaki Kurumi.
"Mm, she sent a voice transmission to me, saying there was no need for us to get in the way over there. She seemed worried that something unexpected might happen on Douluo Star, so she sent even me over."
"What's your current strength like?"
Qian Daoliu sized up the group. Tokisaki Kurumi, who wasn't deliberately restraining her aura, seemed even more terrifying than before.
"All God Kings. I barely broke through to level 151 supreme God King, something like that."
"Hiss—"
Ning Fengzhi and the others sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Then what level is the Asura God?" Bone Douluo pressed.
"The Asura God doesn't matter. I've cut away a lot of his cultivation. Right now, he can't possibly be a match for Master."
"It's just…" A hint of worry appeared on Tokisaki Kurumi's face.
"Just what?"
Sword Douluo stepped forward. Speaking only halfway—what's with that!
"That's exactly why she had me stay behind too."
"There's someone behind the Asura God—very likely the mastermind who planned the Dragon God's fall. She didn't explain the details to me."
"In short, better to be cautious than sorry."
Speaking of which, this kind of battle might bring some benefits to your future as well.
Tokisaki Kurumi gently formed a hand seal, and a projection screen appeared in the sky. The scene showed Ning Rongrong confronting the Asura God.
"Is this the battlefield over there?" Qian Daoliu's voice trembled slightly, his pupils dilating.
"My vision and perception can be shared with Master's, of course. I can't interfere with her."
"But something like broadcasting it live through a soul tool is still possible."
"A battle between supreme God Kings might give you some insights. Just watch peacefully."
Seeing that Qian Renxue and the others still wanted to say something, Tokisaki Kurumi shook her head:
"No need to worry about the hidden existence. She'll handle everything."
Thus, everyone turned their gazes to the projection screen.
...
Battlefield zone, cosmic range.
"This isn't our first meeting, am I right, Ning Rongrong?" The Asura God's expression was indifferent, his tone laced with strands of chilling coldness.
"Who knows? You've obtained that Tang God King's god position, so there are probably many things I don't need to explain."
"Speaking of which, using the universe as your grave isn't exactly an insult."
Ning Rongrong's completely clean words instantly shattered the Asura God's composure.
A "well" mark creased on his forehead.
"Hmph, mere verbal strength. I'd like to see if you're as tough as you claim."
"Triad Judgment!"
The Asura God struck first, immediately unleashing a grand, sweeping move.
"Four Ounces to Move a Thousand Pounds."
Ning Rongrong slowly raised her palm, faint white light swirling in her hand.
"Hum!"
The energy of the Triad Judgment, upon touching the white light, sank like it had fallen into quicksand. It rapidly surged and spun on both sides of Ning Rongrong's position, passing by her in moments without touching her in the slightest.
"This is impossible!"
The Asura God's expression changed dramatically.
This move, built from the wisdom and power of the five great God Kings—his once strongest technique—could even fell the Golden Dragon King on the spot.
And she had cracked it with a mere raise of her hand?
"You… how did you do that?"
"Well!"
As she spoke, Ning Rongrong's figure vanished from the Asura God's sight.
"I can only say the gap between us is a bit large."
Her voice rang in his ear. The Asura God's expression turned icy, his pupils contracting. He instantly exerted full power—"Whoosh!"—turning into red light and retreating ten thousand meters.
A bead of cold sweat slowly slid down his forehead as he stared at Ning Rongrong standing exactly where he had just been.
"No, impossible! She almost fooled my perception!
The Asura God suppressed the unease in his heart. He gripped the Asura Demon Sword tightly with both hands, blood-colored divine power spreading outward from his body as the center.
"Asura Domain."
As he spoke, the spreading blood-colored aura began forming a stable structure.
The Asura God's energy grew even more condensed. Even the muscles on his arms swelled, becoming quite powerful and imposing.
"God Sword Unity, God Soul Unity—Asura Blood Sword!"
"Asura Heaven and Earth…"
"Chi!"
Before he could finish speaking.
The Asura God's voice cut off abruptly. Even the condensed laws began to fall into disorder.
The Asura God looked down at his chest in disbelief. The stinging pain snapped him out of his daze.
At the position of the Asura God's chest, a pitch-black light sword—formed from some unknown energy—had pierced through.
"With such a huge skill wind-up, who else would die if not you?" Ning Rongrong gently shook her head.
"When did you…"
"Explode!"
Without giving the Asura God any chance to speak, the black light sword lodged in his chest erupted with blazing radiance, clashing violently with the laws inside the Asura God's body.
"Boom!" The Asura God's body exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
"Of course it was when I just approached you, hehehehe."
Ning Rongrong slowly lowered her hand.
"People—oh no, gods—shouldn't get too smug. Retribution will come!"
"Damn… damn it!"
A vicious voice suddenly rang out, coming from nowhere.
The Asura God, who had turned into blood mist, rapidly converged and restored his normal appearance.
"You can't kill me. I've already fused with the cosmic laws."
"Now, I am the universe!"
"Hahahaha, hahahahahaha!"
"Is that so?"
While still laughing wildly, the Asura God exploded again, turning into another cloud of blood mist.
Ning Rongrong's pupils spun like clock hands. The area of blood mist began to collapse, erased in the blink of an eye.
However, just a few seconds later.
The Asura God reappeared in another direction, looking as if he hadn't been injured at all.
The blood-red in the Asura God's eyes was chilling and ferocious at a glance.
"I told you, I am the universe, and the universe is me. This seat is invincible in the world."
"Bang!"
The Asura God's body exploded once more. The blood mist formed from his soul and body was swallowed by cracking spatial rifts.
"Had enough fun yet? Cosmic laws, controlling a puppet—does it give you such a sense of accomplishment?" Ning Rongrong's calm voice echoed.
"Bastard, puppet—you dare call me a puppet!" The revived Asura God's face turned faintly purple. "I am a supreme God King, one who surpasses the Dragon God!"
As soon as the words fell, the Asura God's consciousness rapidly receded, and his soul began to annihilate.
"No…"
The Asura God's voice cut off abruptly.
Light fell from the sky, pouring into the Asura God's body.
At the same time.
A voice indistinguishable as male or female echoed through the universe, like a death summons from the netherworld.
"You're not wrong—the Asura God indeed cannot do anything to you. But for one who defies order, your journey ends here."
