Chapter 397 The War of the Gods (Final) (Part 2)
Both the Silver Dragon King and Di Tian refused outright upon hearing this, with the Silver Dragon King becoming especially enraged: "Yang Podi, you have already ruined our soul beast clan's millennia-long plan, and you still dare to try to imprison us!"
That's absolutely impossible.
Yang Podi coldly said, "What kind of bullshit plan is this? If it weren't for your indulgence, or rather, your secret manipulation, this war wouldn't have happened at all. So many of my human races have died, and in the end, someone has to be held responsible. It's either you or Di Tian."
"Yi is still relatively easy to talk to. If you don't agree, then let's talk with the sword in my hand. In this world, strength will always prevail."
The Silver Dragon King sneered, "You're right. This world truly values strength above all else. You don't think that's all the strength I have, do you? Although you've mastered the power of creation, you're only at level 100. Your level is far below mine. If it weren't for the restrictions of Douluo Star's rules, I could kill you as easily as crushing an ant."
Yang Podi's face turned cold: "Then let's fight. I want to see just how strong you really are."
After saying that, Yang Podi didn't waste any more words. The Silver Dragon King was an incarnation of the Dragon God, known as the Lord of Soul Beasts. Perhaps because of the split, his intelligence was too low, but he inherited part of the Dragon God's power, making him the number one person below the God King.
Yang Podi, wielding the Asura Demon Sword, flashed forward and swiftly appeared before the Silver Dragon King. He slashed at the king with his sword, a seemingly simple strike that was as dazzling as flowing light, as if it contained boundless power.
The Silver Dragon King sneered and directly took out the Silver Dragon Spear and fired a shot. In just one move, the Asura Demon Sword collided with the Silver Dragon Spear.
Yang Podi had already used most of his power in this sword strike, unlike the previous probing strikes. It seemed to contain infinite creative power, while the Silver Dragon King's silver dragon spear seemed to possess infinite elemental power.
But with just one sword strike, the originally silvery-white and very beautiful Silver Dragon Spear suddenly dimmed, and even a faint sword mark appeared.
Upon seeing the marks on the Hundred Silver Dragon Spear, the Silver Dragon King flew into a rage, disregarding any issue of the suppression of heaven and earth.
It emitted a dragon's roar, and the surrounding space seemed to crack and crumble, as if the rules of the surrounding environment had been broken.
Even the Silver Dragon Spear possessed destructive power.
Yang Podi didn't care about anything else and directly swung his sword. Endless sword energy immediately enveloped the heavens and earth, as if it had transformed into countless rules, instantly enveloping the Silver Dragon King.
The Silver Dragon King's expression tightened at this moment, as if he sensed something was amiss. But facing the sky full of sword energy, he let out a huge dragon roar and instantly transformed into a silver dragon with a length exceeding one square meter. The radiant energy burst forth and directly met the countless sword energies.
As Yang Podi watched the Silver Dragon King reveal his true form, his seventh soul ring flashed, and he instantly transformed into a towering giant, the evolved Dharma Form of Heaven and Earth.
After Yang Podi used the Heaven and Earth Dharma Image, he held a golden giant sword that seemed to be of endless length and slowly slashed at the Silver Dragon King. The entire sky was split in two, and the sword directly struck the Silver Dragon King's huge body, forming a twisted wound.
The Silver Dragon King retaliated, unleashing a massive dragon tail that lashed out, a move resembling a divine dragon's tail sweep, seemingly intent on shattering Yang Podi's resolute Dharma form.
Yang Podi didn't care about anything else. Countless energies were immediately poured into the golden giant sword, and he swung it forward with all his might, even letting out a sound: "Creation."
Therefore, under the combined force of the Divine Dragon Tail Swing and Yang Podi's sword strike, the heavens and earth seemed to shatter. The Silver Dragon King's enormous tail once again revealed a ferocious wound, and countless drops of golden blood were scattered on the earth, as if a spiritual rain had fallen, filling the air with the breath of life.
Seeing that the Silver Dragon King would likely suffer a great loss if the battle continued, Di Tian quickly spoke up: "Yang Podi, please don't harm my lord. I'm willing to stay."
As Di Tian finished speaking, Yang Podi did not draw his sword again. The Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth slowly dissipated and eventually returned to its original form.
The Silver Dragon King gradually returned to her original girlish appearance, but she looked rather disheveled, with many wounds on her body.
At this moment, the Silver Dragon King coldly said, "I never expected, I really never expected that Yang Podi, you not only mastered the power of creation, but also became the plane master of Douluo Star. From now on, as long as you are on Douluo Star, I'm afraid no one will be your match, not even the five great god kings."
Yang Podi shook his head: "I don't care about being a plane master or what power you possess. What I care about is the damage your soul beast race has caused to Douluo Star, resulting in the fall of countless lives. This is something I absolutely cannot allow."
The Silver Dragon King sneered, "What a righteous and awe-inspiring words! Do you think it's permissible for you humans to harm our soul beast race? Do you think it's allowed for you to wantonly destroy my Star Dou Great Forest? Aren't you being too self-centered?"
Yang Podi also sneered: "So you call yourself the Lord of Soul Beasts? You have the nerve to call yourself the Lord of Soul Beasts? After you started this war, you are no longer worthy of being called the Lord of Soul Beasts."
"Since you came to Douluo Star, what have you done for Douluo Star? What have you done for the Soul Beast Clan? Besides hiding deep in the Star Dou Great Forest, enjoying the provisions of the Soul Beast Clan and the reputation of your master,
"You haven't made any contributions, and you even watched your subordinates die. What right do you have to say such things?"
Only then did the Silver Dragon King look at the entire Spirit City. It was a huge meat grinder. The spirit beast race had suffered heavy losses this time. So many 100,000-year spirit beasts had died, and millions of ordinary spirit beasts had died, possibly even more. Even Xiong Jun, who had always been loyal to him, had died. It was a catastrophic disaster for the entire Star Dou Great Forest.
Finally, the Silver Dragon King gave a bitter laugh, a hideously cruel laugh, his small face streaked with tears: "Yang Podi,"
You're right. As the ruler of all soul beasts, I have indeed failed miserably. I will take responsibility for this.
Upon hearing this, Di Tian, who was far away, transformed into a black shadow and arrived beside the Silver Dragon King: "My lord, none of this is your fault. It is the fault of those false gods in the God Realm. Our Soul Beast Clan has simply fallen into their trap."
"Although Tang San was trained by us, all of this was clearly deliberately orchestrated by those people in the God Realm. That evil guy even set up a divine test for Tang San. It's obvious that the test he gave Tang San was to start this war, to make Tang San cause destruction, and even to make Tang San fill the entire earth with evil energy."
The Silver Dragon King waved his hand: "Di Tian, stop talking. A loss is a loss. My soul beast clan has suffered a terrible defeat this time. You have always been the one ruling the Star Dou Great Forest. The Star Dou Great Forest still needs you. It needs you to maintain order and to bring the remaining soul beasts back to the Star Dou Great Forest. Otherwise, the soul beast clan will really be wiped out."
Di Tian quickly spoke up: "My lord, the Soul Beast race needs you even more. You are the true symbol and the true master of the Soul Beast race."
The Silver Dragon King shook his head: "Di Tian, you should go. Take the remaining soul beasts back with you. I will stay in this human world as a way of taking responsibility for this failure."
Di Tian's face showed a moment of struggle: "But my lord, what should I do next? I can't just stand by and watch you wander outside, watch you suffer the humiliation of Yang Podi."
Yang Podi merely sneered: "Di Tian, Silver Dragon King, don't blame me for being ruthless. You two are evenly matched, one claiming to be the Lord of Soul Beasts, the other claiming to be the Beast God, but what have you done for the Soul Beast race from beginning to end?"
"Besides watching them kill each other, have we done anything to contribute to them whatsoever?"
Throughout the entire original work, Yang Podi was speechless. After ten thousand years of changes, the Star Dou Great Forest had declined to less than one percent of its original size. These two were truly big shots. They hadn't uttered a single word from beginning to end, nor had they done anything useful. They had simply watched their own soul beast race decline, and watched the soul beasts being slaughtered and their living space squeezed.
Although Di Tian is known as the number one expert in Douluo Continent, apart from bullying weaklings and being a nobody, he has accomplished nothing of note in his half-life.
The Silver Dragon King was even more ridiculous. As the avatar of the Dragon God, he actually worshipped Tang San immensely and even thought that Tang San had made many contributions to the soul beast race. Yang Podi wanted to point his finger at him and ask if this Tang San had ever made any contribution to the soul beast race.
Looking at the original work, Tang San is essentially the gravedigger of the soul beast race, and even the mastermind behind all the destruction.
Ultimately, under Yang Podi's disdainful gaze, the Silver Dragon King remained alone in Wuhun City, while Di Tian let out a huge dragon roar, and many soul beasts began to flee Wuhun City in a panic.
However, before leaving, Yang Podi coldly addressed Di Tian: "Di Tian, remember the outcome of this war. If your soul beast race dares to break the agreement and send out another beast tide or have any other ulterior motives, I don't mind completely wiping out your soul beast race. At worst, humanity will no longer have any advanced soul masters."
Upon hearing this, Di Tian left with an extremely solemn expression. This war was a disgrace to the Soul Beast race, and it might even lead to the true decline of the Soul Beast race. He was the true initiator and planner of this war. If it weren't for the continued survival of the Soul Beast race, he would have wanted to atone with his death.
Bibi Dong then solemnly declared the war over, with the Martial Soul Empire emerging victorious.
The crowd of Wuhun City, who were initially exhausted from injuries sustained in continuous battles, suddenly erupted in a thunderous cheer, as if they were witnessing a miracle in human history.
"Long live the Spirit Empire!"
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Long live the Angels!"
It's unclear who started it, but various sounds resounded across the land, and it even seemed to contain some kind of special energy. The angelic radiance on Qian Renxue seemed to shine even brighter, and even Bibi Dong possessed some kind of mysterious power, no longer as evil as the original Rakshasa God.
Although Yang Podi knew that this was the power of faith, he just smiled slightly and paid no more attention to it. After all, he had absorbed too much energy from Douluo Star when he became a god, and he felt that he had already merged with the entire Douluo Star.
Bibi Dong, however, remained relatively calm. She quickly dispatched Flame Eagle Douluo and Azure Phoenix Douluo, along with some flying Soul Douluos and Soul Saints, to accompany them. She herself went to negotiate with Di Tian, stipulating that during the retreat of the Soul Beast Clan, no harm should be caused to any personnel; otherwise, it would be considered a breach of the war treaty, and the consequences would be borne by the individual. She also left Flame Eagle Douluo and Azure Phoenix Douluo to monitor the process.
After the Soul Beast Clan retreated, Bibi Dong immediately organized the people on the scene to rescue the wounded, provide compensation and bury the dead, and even formulated some relevant post-war procedures. She also quickly arranged for people to spread the news of the victory throughout the country to prevent any villains from causing trouble.
Yang Podi just smiled. Although his cheap mother-in-law was a bit unconventional and even ruthless, she had a very good overall perspective and was at least a qualified emperor.
However, on the battlefield, Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and the remnants of the Power Clan and the Agility Clan were in a rather awkward position. Although they numbered only a few dozen, as guides, they caused great harm to the Soul Masters of the Spirit Empire. In particular, the Netherworld White Tiger, composed of Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, even killed many Soul Masters.
Now things are rather awkward. The war is over, the soul beast race has been defeated, and it's clear that Di Tian is in a hurry to retreat with his soul beasts and no longer has the mind to care about them. As for the other soul beasts, apart from those few ten-year soul beasts...
Nobody knows them, and they can't just follow ordinary spirit beasts; they might get mistaken for enemies and killed.
It's important to know that there are quite a few spirit beasts involved in this war.
Without saying a word, Bibi Dong captured all of them and threw them all into prison. According to Bibi Dong, these people were considered to have betrayed the human race and acted as traitors. They would be executed in a unified manner at a later time, so as to give an explanation to the dead people.
Yang Podi didn't care much about that. He was always very afraid of trouble, and the trivial matters after the war were often very troublesome. It was better to leave them to other professionals. He had already slipped away, taking Yang Zhentian, Sword Douluo, and Poison Douluo from the crowd to the Angel Temple, which was the quietest place in the entire Spirit City.
As for the Silver Dragon King, Yang Podi directly handed it over to Qian Daoliu, since he was the high priest of the Angel Clan and such a spoils of war should naturally be given to him to handle.
Qian Daoliu could only manage a wry smile. He couldn't possibly keep an eye on a master like the Silver Dragon King. He was merely a Limit Douluo, while the Silver Dragon King was a half-step God King.
Qian Daoliu was at a loss, so he could only casually arrange for a Soul Saint to take the Silver Dragon King for a stroll around Martial Soul City.
He also wanted to learn about the personality of this Soul Beast Lord to facilitate future communication, while he himself was busy with matters concerning the Offering Hall.
In this great battle, three people from the Hall of Offerings died, and the rest were all wounded, especially Golden Crocodile Douluo, who was seriously injured. Even the Angel Legion suffered heavy losses. All of these need to be dealt with and appeased by Qian Daoliu, and he will probably be very busy in the coming days.
To the Silver Dragon King, there really doesn't seem to be much difference between Limit Douluo and Soul Saint.
Yang Podi originally wanted to find Qian Renxue and Ye Lingling, but both of them were extremely busy. Qian Renxue was pulled away by Bibi Dong to assist in handling the affairs of the empire, while Ye Lingling was busy rescuing people. After all, almost everyone was injured in this war, and there were countless seriously injured people. Only Ye Lingling's treatment was effective.
