Chapter 156 Super Artifact: Origin Heavenly Wheel.
What made her even more wary was that the opponent's sword intent was too pure, too domineering.
It seemed to exist solely for "slaying gods"!
It had an extremely strong restraining effect on her elemental power.
Every time the sword and spear clashed, her elemental power would be torn apart and annihilated by the God-Slaying Sword Intent.
She needed to consume more of her source to replenish it, and if this continued, defeat was inevitable!
"This can't go on!"
A fierce glint flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes!
She decided to use even stronger power.
Silver light surged around her, and all the runes on the Silver Dragon Spear lit up.
"Boom!"
A dragon's might, far more ancient and majestic than before, spread out.
A phantom of a giant dragon, entirely silver-white and controlling the elements, vaguely appeared behind her.
It was a partial projection of the Dragon God, the ultimate manifestation of the Dragon God's bloodline power within her!
She was trying to draw upon deeper Dragon God bloodline power, as well as the portion of the Dragon God's laws contained within the Silver Dragon Spear.
She wanted to break the stalemate!
However, just as her momentum surged, preparing to launch an even stronger attack, Lu Xiao, who had seemed to be passively reacting, flashed a knowing look of "that's enough."
He had already ascertained Gu Yuena's bottom line through their previous exchange.
He had also verified his temporarily enhanced combat power; the warm-up was over.
"The warm-up should end now," Lu Xiao's voice rang out calmly, reaching Gu Yuena's ears with crystal clarity amidst the intense energy explosions.
It carried an air of complete control.
"Hmm?"
Gu Yuena's heart skipped a beat, a strong sense of crisis instantly enveloping her!
Lu Xiao raised his left hand and gently swiped it across the void before him.
"Buzz!"
An indescribable, terrifying aura, seemingly emanating from before the creation of the world, from the origin and end of all things, descended with a deafening roar!
The entire space of the endless arena violently distorted and fluctuated.
Before Lu Xiao, a wheel about three feet in diameter, its entire body a deep, chaotic purple, with dark gold mystical patterns flowing along its edges, slowly rotated and appeared.
This roulette wheel, though seemingly small, appears to be the center of the entire world!
As it slowly rotates, the birth and annihilation of stars, the creation and destruction of all things, can be vaguely seen unfolding within it.
This is the Origin Heavenly Wheel, the divine artifact Lu Xiao obtained through the Heavenly Curtain reward, which he later upgraded to a super divine artifact using the "Divine Artifact Upgrade Card" he earned through daily check-ins!
Super Divine Artifact—Origin Heavenly Wheel!
"This is... a super divine artifact!"
Gu Yuena's exquisite face once again revealed an undisguised look of horror!
A super divine artifact is a heaven-defying opportunity, enough to drive any god-king mad.
Lu Xiao actually possessed it?
Moreover, the aura of this wheel-shaped divine artifact seemed even more ancient than her Silver Dragon Spear.
Even closer to the essence of the world!
"Something's not right!"
What shocked her even more was that
Lu Xiao was also emanating a completely new domain aura.
It was an invisible domain, not very large in area, yet it carried supreme divine might, as if the gods had descended and were looking down upon all living beings!
Within this domain, Gu Yuena felt her elemental power become sluggish.
The pressure of her Dragon God bloodline was forcibly suppressed, and even her thoughts seemed to be affected.
This was Lu Xiao's innate domain—the Divine Domain of the Heavens!
"This domain..."
Gu Yuena bit her lower lip, her face turning extremely ugly.
The opponent's domain and the Radiant Annihilation God-Slaying Sword—everything seemed to be specifically designed to counter her.
It made it difficult for her to fully unleash her strength, and this feeling of being countered made her extremely uncomfortable.
Lu Xiao didn't explain much!
He could sense Gu Yuena's shock, but he didn't hesitate at all.
He simply pointed at the slowly rotating Origin Heavenly Wheel, and a detached voice rang out.
"The Origin Wheel, All Laws Return to Nothingness."
The Origin Wheel suddenly accelerated its rotation!
At the center of the wheel, the deep, chaotic purple light blazed intensely, transforming into a silent, yet powerful light that could return everything to its origin, shining towards Gu Yuena!
"Damn it! This aura?"
Gu Yuena felt an unprecedented, deadly threat!
She shrieked, pouring all her power into the Silver Dragon Spear without reservation.
The phantom of the Dragon God behind her roared to the heavens, unleashing a dragon's roar that shook the universe.
The power of the seven elements and the power of the Dragon God's bloodline fused wildly.
At the tip of the spear, it condensed into a single, extremely brilliant element, seemingly capable of recreating the world—the Light of Creation!
This was her strongest attack in her current state, a fusion of elemental authority, the Dragon God's bloodline, and the power of a super artifact.
Its power had already touched the threshold of a God-King!
"Elemental Creation!"
Gu Yuena shouted!
The Silver Dragon Spear in her hand, carrying unparalleled might, thrust forward fiercely towards the Light of Nothingness!
She would use all her trump cards to confront the power of the Ruins!
The Light of Creation and the Light of Ruins met silently in the center of the arena.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, no all-encompassing energy storm.
Only an extreme "annihilation" and "assimilation."
At the point of contact, space silently vanished into nothingness.
Time seemed to stand still, even light was completely swallowed up, forming a brief realm of "nothingness."
The stalemate lasted only a few breaths.
Gu Yuena groaned, her face instantly turning ashen.
She clearly felt that her "Elemental Light of Creation," which had fused with her life's power, was being rapidly decomposed and dissolved before that strange "Light of Ruins."
It was being reduced to the most primordial energy particles, returning to its state before its "origin"!
"Pfft!"
In the end, the light of the Void completely overwhelmed the light of creation, and the aftershocks, like gentle water, brushed over Gu Yuena's body.
Gu Yuena was struck as if by lightning, her delicate body trembling violently. She spat out a mouthful of blood containing seven-colored radiance.
The violent elemental storm around her instantly dissipated.
The light of the Silver Dragon Spear also dimmed, and the runes on the spear lost their luster.
She flew backward like a kite with a broken string, her aura rapidly weakening.
The protective golden light of the Heavenly Curtain descended in time!
[The Endless Arena Battle has ended, Lu Xiao wins, ranking unchanged]
The cold and majestic voice of the Heavenly Curtain resounded throughout the entire Douluo Continent.
It brought to a close this battle, which could be called the most peak and most shocking duel in the history of Douluo Continent.
The aura around Lu Xiao, which had temporarily risen to the peak of a first-level god, slowly subsided.
His Domain: Divine Domain of the Heavens dissipated.
"Thank you for your concession!"
He looked at Gu Yuena, who was enveloped in golden light, her face pale but still stubbornly looking at him, and nodded slightly.
This was respect for the strong.
Immediately, he was enveloped in a golden teleportation light and returned to Beidou Academy.
The entire Douluo Continent fell into a long and utter silence.
Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, an existence infinitely close to a God-King, wielding the super artifact Silver Dragon Spear, and controlling the seven elemental powers… was defeated.
Defeated by Lu Xiao.
Beidou Academy: Lu Xiao.
The strongest warrior of the era, a God-King level… well-deserved!
After a brief, almost vacuum-like silence, the entire Douluo Continent erupted in a cacophony of sounds more deafening and complex than ever before!
"He won! Dean Lu won!"
"The battle of God-Kings…it was terrifying! I didn't even dare watch for long!"
"The Silver Dragon King was defeated…humanity has truly defeated the supreme being of soul beasts!"
The human world erupted in deafening cheers and exclamations.
Lu Xiao's victory not only vindicated Beidou Academy but also injected an unprecedented dose of morale into all human soul masters!
This meant that at the pinnacle of individual martial prowess…
Humanity now possesses beings capable of rivaling, and even defeating, the strongest soul beasts!
Star Dou Great Forest, core area.
The atmosphere was as heavy as iron.
Gu Yuena was transported back to the Lake of Life by the golden light of the heavens.
Bi Ji immediately stepped forward, using Gu Yuena's own powerful life force to stabilize her severe injuries.
Her face was pale, her purple eyes tightly closed.
She was fully processing the gains and wounds of this battle.
Di Tian, Xiong Jun, the Ten Thousand Demon King, and other ferocious beasts stood with their heads bowed, not daring to utter a sound.
Their lord's defeat was a devastating blow to their morale.
Even their lord, who was infinitely close to a God-King and wielded a super artifact, had been defeated.
What would become of the soul beast race in the future?
Beidou Academy, that mysterious Lu Xiao.
It had become the heaviest mountain hanging over the hearts of all soul beasts.
Just as Lu Xiao was teleported back to Beidou Academy, Gu Yuena began to heal, and the hearts of all sides of the continent were surging with emotion!
"Boom boom boom!"
On the sky, the blood-gold ranking list, which had been slowly fading, suddenly rippled like water!
Then, all the text, rankings, and light seemed to be wiped away by an invisible hand.
Just as everyone was confused, a soft yet incredibly striking milky-white halo appeared in the center of the sky.
The halo rapidly spread and shifted, finally condensing into a line of entirely new, ancient characters, completely different in style from the previous "Battle Power Ranking."
These characters no longer possessed the blood-red aura of slaughter.
Instead, they exuded a profound, harmonious, and yin-yang-like Daoist charm, a harmony of all things.
[Three days later, the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Ranking will be announced.]
[This ranking includes the most effective, potentially powerful, and extraordinary Martial Soul Fusion Skills from the Douluo Continent. Those listed are the crystallization of Soul Master tacit understanding, Martial Soul compatibility, and the blessings of heaven and earth.]
[Ranking criteria: Comprehensive evaluation based on multiple dimensions such as the power, rarity, and growth potential of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.]
[Those listed will receive rewards.]
"Soul Fusion Skill Ranking!"
The moment these words appeared, the entire Douluo Continent, especially all human soul master forces, instantly snapped out of the shock of the previous God King duel and plunged into a completely different kind of boiling excitement, filled with fervent anticipation!
"Soul Fusion Skill Ranking! Is it finally our turn?"
"Heavens! Fusion skills can be ranked! And there are rewards!"
Soul Fusion Skills are extremely rare and powerful abilities in the soul master world.
They perfectly fuse the power of two or more souls, unleashing power far exceeding the sum of their individual forms.
A powerful Soul Fusion Skill can often become the prized possession of a family or sect, determining the outcome of a crucial battle!
Now, the Heavenly Curtain has actually created a ranking specifically for this, with generous rewards!
How could those soul masters renowned for their unique Soul Fusion Skills not be extremely excited?
