Huo Yuhao's face had become pale after releasing a series of explosive attacks. The three soul cores in his body were operating already operating at maximum capacity. Even though he made it seem easy, Huo Yuhao had already expended more than fifty percent of his soul power. This was something he had not experienced after becoming an Ultimate Douluo.
"Good!" Di Tian exclaimed loudly. He swung his left fist forward as he released a wave of spatial power.
An almighty intent was released at that instant. A gigantic black dragon appeared right behind Huo Yuhao as it opened its mouth to devour him.
Once again, Di Tian ripped apart space as he transformed into a streak of silver before vanishing.
Powerful binding and corrosive forces started to infiltrate Huo Yuhao's body. However, they were ineffective, as they were instantly frozen due to the effects of his Absolute Zero.
Just when Huo Yuhao was about to break out from the head of the dragon, he suddenly spun himself in mid-air as multi-colored light grazed past his body.
Huo Yuhao felt that side of his body turn numb. The insane energy within the light was actually able to spin his entire body around. The absolute zero temperature was somehow unable to affect Di Tian's attack.
At this instant, Huo Yuhao finally learned how powerful the Dragon God's Claw was.
There seemed to be some sort of extremely frightening absolute power within it, in addition, to pulses of elemental energy.
Huo Yuhao specialized in ice-type elemental energy. However, the Dragon God's Claw seemed to possess energy from all elements.
Water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and spatial-type energy fluctuations appeared at the same time. In fact, they were released in an extremely chaotic and explosive manner.
Di Tian was not trying to land a heavy blow on Huo Yuhao. Instead, he focused on the speed of his attack. In addition, he was able to fuse spatial power and the power of darkness perfectly. Di Tian managed to time his attack such that he struck Huo Yuhao when he had just expended a lot of energy, and was catching his breath. There was no lock-on, or any sort of warning. Hence, Huo Yuhao was ultimately unable to evade the attack.
Because of how half of his body was numb, Huo Yuhao had to activate the three soul cores in his body to fend off the frightening power of the Dragon God.
The dragon head, which had consumed him, had already disintegrated. Huo Yuhao took a step forward as he entered a crack in the space before him. He was able to avoid the subsequent attacks coming his way.
Space flickered as two individuals continually appeared and collided with one another. Flashes of light illuminated the surrounding air as both Di Tian and Huo Yuhao separated from one another every time after they collided.
If one were to look up at the sky above the Great Star Dou Forest, one would see a sky which was completely contorted. The colors in the sky were rapidly changing as they flickered between radiant golden, intense black, and rainbow colors. Even though they could have been separated by tens of thousands of meters, every single soul beast in the Great Star Dou Forest did not dare move at this moment.
Within the Core Region of the Great Star Dou Forest.
The Emerald Swan, the Myriad Demon King, the Bear Lord, and the Scarlet King were all gathered here. They all seemed to be reacting to the commotion above them differently.
The Bear Lord continually released and retracted its Darkgolden Terrorclaws as it glared ferociously.
On the other hand, the Myriad Demon King seemed to be thinking about something.
Meanwhile, the Scarlet King and the Emerald Swan were very worried about Di Tian.
After all, they were separated by ten thousand meters, and the four of them were extremely powerful soul beasts. Even though they were heavily suppressed by the effects of Huo Yuhao and Di Tian's battle, they were still capable of moving.
The Scarlet King bellowed, "Who is that? I don't know of anyone who is able to fight with the Beast God for such a long period of time."
The Emerald Swan's eyes seemed to be sparkling as it replied, "I think Di Tian is fighting with a human. I just don't know who he is. I only realized that when I saw Di Tian ascending into the sky with a human."
"Impossible. How is a human able to possess enough power to rival Di Tian?" The Scarlet King did not believe what the Emerald Swan had just said.
The Bear Lord sniggered, "Is it the Evileye Tyrant again?"
The Myriad Demon King scolded him, "Can you please use your brain? There's no way he can come here right now. He's probably busy trying to prepare himself for the catastrophe which is about to hit him. Unless he has reached the eight-hundred-thousand-year cultivation level, he would have no chance against Di Tian."
The Bear Lord grunted, "So what if he has managed to make a breakthrough?"
"Bullshit..." The Myriad Demon King replied. However, at the very next instant, its body started to tremble. All four Savage Beasts looked up into the sky at the same time as an expression of disbelief formed on their faces.
The originally warped sky suddenly became clear as a mystical streak of light flashed before their eyes.
"Is that really the Evil Emperor?" The Emerald Swan gasped.
The Myriad Demon King's eyes widened in disbelief."T-That's Space-Time Light?"
The sky above them had already transformed into a different world. The Eye of the Asura above Huo Yuhao's forehead was radiating a deep and frightening glow. At that instant, it seemed as though it had come alive.
Di Tian, who was not too far away from Huo Yuhao, seemed to be moving very slowly. The surrounding space and time seemed to have become frozen.
Huo Yuhao's spiritual power exploded like a geyser as Di Tian's human form started to give way. Scales started to appear on his human skin.
Initially, those scales still seemed to be radiant and shiny. However, very soon, the light on their surfaces started to fade away as they started to fall off of his body.
At this instant, Di Tian's eyes widened in disbelief. His body started to tremble as it stared at Huo Yuhao.
"Space-Time Light! H-How are you able to use Space-Time Light?" Di Tian could not believe what he was seeing.
As the two of them continued to collide in the air and unleash their demi-god abilities—the Dragon God's Claw and the Morning Dew Dagger—Di Tian had managed to land another blow on Huo Yuhao. However, his attack was blocked by Huo Yuhao's Absolute Zero. Following which, Di Tian saw Huo Yuhao's Eye of the Asura release a dark blue light.
A powerful streak of dark blue light was suddenly released from the depth of his pupils.
When this streak of dark blue light appeared, it was almost as if time had been frozen. Di Tian, who was about to go after Huo Yuhao, was practically immobilized in mid-air. The surrounding space-time was contracting at an incredible rate. The dark blue light seemed to be moving very slowly. However, during its movement, the sky and earth had become dark blue. At that very instant, everything seemed to have become dark blue.
Space-Time Light!
This was the Evileye Tyrant's biggest trump card. Back then, it was only able to escape from Di Tian with this powerful ability.
This was effectively space-time power which originated from one's source of spiritual power! Space-time power was able to strip the source of spiritual power from all living things. This would cause their source of spiritual power to deteriorate, and eventually be destroyed.
Back then, even though Di Tian was able to severely injure the Evileye Tyrant, he was also hit by the Space-Time Light. The Beast God took close to a thousand years before finally recovering from that blow. It was apparent how powerful Space-Time Light was.
This time, the Space-Time Light had reappeared. However, Huo Yuhao was now the person releasing this ability. Di Tian could sense that Huo Yuhao's Space-Time Light was, in fact, a lot more powerful than the Evileye Tyrant's. The reason was that Huo Yuhao's spiritual power was stronger than that of the Evileye Tyrant.
After all, Huo Yuhao possessed spiritual power which could rival that of a demi-god! His spiritual soul core was already at the demi-god level—a level which even Di Tian could not attain after cultivating for seven hundred thousand years. Di Tian finally learned that Huo Yuhao's power did not only come from the Morning Dew Dagger!
Di Tian finally understood everything. He realized that there was only one possible reason why Huo Yuhao was able to acquire the Space-Time Light power. Huo Yuhao must have gone to look for the Evileye Tyrant before finding Di Tian. In addition, he must have made the Evileye Tyrant his soul ring.
No wonder he's so confident of defeating me. That's right! With three soul cores, a demi-god level spiritual soul core, a demi-god level Morning Dew Dagger, his Absolute Zero aura, and the Sigh of the Frozen Goddess... There's no way he would not be confident of defeating me.
Di Tian's pupils had already taken on several colors at this instant. He was mustering all the energy his Dragon God's Claw could give him. He was trying to stop his source of spiritual power from deteriorating in the Space-Time Light.
However, at this instant, Di Tian saw a small blue light in Huo Yuhao's hand. The light was not very intense. In fact, it was wedged under his finger nail. However, Di Tian revealed a look of despair after seeing it.
Following which, Huo Yuhao's pupils took on a dark color. He closed his eyes, including his Eye of the Asura. The blue light in his hand suddenly became very intense as it became even brighter than the glow from the Space-Time Light.
Because Di Tian was pinned down by the Space-Time Light, there was no way he could stop Huo Yuhao. Right now, Huo Yuhao was practically one with heaven and earth.
Suddenly, Huo Yuhao waved his arm as the blue light instantly retracted to form a crystalline blue dagger. The dagger was released into the air as it formed a beautiful blue parabolic path which flickered across the sky.
The fear in Di Tian's eyes was apparent. As it watched the layers of space that were crushed and penetrated by the dagger, his eyes widened in disbelief. The dagger seemed to contain all of Huo Yuhao's spiritual power. Di Tian could sense the demi-god aura from the little dagger.
Di Tian lowered its head in despair. He knew that there was no point in watching the dagger, since he was unable to avoid the dagger. The Beast God looked at the forest beneath it longingly. He really did not want to leave the forest in such a manner.
Dragon God, it seems like I won't be able to complete the task which you have given me...?A bitter smile formed on Di Tian's face. Perhaps, this was the look one would give after one was liberated from his or her responsibilities.
Di Tian's body started to tremble lightly. At the very next instant, he felt as though its body was flying. The dagger was sending his body backward as Di Tian smashed through layers of space. The other world seemed to be beckoning him.
The four Savage Beasts could not believe what they were seeing.
Is the number one soul beast in the world really going to depart from this world? Is this the end for the Beast God who ruled the Great Star Dou Forest for hundreds of thousands of years?
At this instant, the sky was no longer in its warped and contorted state. The Emerald Swan was now able to tell who Di Tian was fighting.
