Chapter 490 - 491: Dragon Emperor’s Self-Destruction!
Chapter 490: Chapter 491: Dragon Emperor’s Self-Destruction!
Entering the River of Time, it was that familiar feeling once again.
But this time was different from the last.
With the energy support from the Demon God, he and Sally could choose more than just three time nodes.
This also meant…
This time, he could directly venture deep into the River of Time to search for the other two missing fragments of Sally’s Divine Pattern.
He could even head to any node within the River of Time to set things in motion.
And the first stop.
Gu Xing chose the time node where Sally’s perception was the strongest and stepped in.
Boom——!
A deafening roar instantly filled Gu Xing’s perception.
A dense, overwhelming smell of blood and scorching permeated the air.
He appeared on a battlefield.
The ground here was shattered, stars burned, and the area was covered with webs of spatial cracks.
The sky was stained a filthy dark red, as if doomsday had arrived.
Five figures exuding endless malice stood there, like the nightmare of the entire world.
When Gu Xing clearly saw these five figures, his pupils contracted.
He seemed to have arrived at the time node of the Demon God’s invasion.
And at this moment, appearing in the sky were five Demon Gods!
And among these five Demon Gods, there was unexpectedly the one he had just slain not long ago…
Demon God Abyss!
And on the other side…
A five-clawed golden dragon, tens of thousands of feet long, was drenched in blood.
Its dragon scales had largely fallen off, revealing the charred bones and flesh underneath.
One dragon claw was missing, with a terrifying wound in its abdomen that nearly tore it apart, the flowing dragon blood dyeing the shattered ground below.
He was the Dragon Emperor, the strongest existence in the Alternate Space.
But now he was on the brink of death.
Behind the Dragon Emperor was devastation.
The nine Pseudo-God auras fighting alongside him had mostly been extinguished.
Only the battle scars left around indicated their existence.
The only one slightly better off was an Elf with tattered light wings, struggling to maintain the Law of Life.
And she was an old acquaintance of Gu Xing.
The Elf Empress!
However, at this moment, the Elf Empress seemed to have reached her limit, her mouth constantly bleeding pale golden blood.
Then, Gu Xing’s gaze fell not far away.
There, a figure knelt.
She wore a pale golden palace dress stained with blood and dirt, her long hair disheveled, and her beautiful face devoid of any color.
Her once brilliant pale golden dragon eyes now only held despair and numbness.
She was Long Qingyan.
At this moment, her cultivation had reached Totem Tier Nine, just one step away from being a Pseudo-God.
But this one step distance left her powerless to participate in the Divine Level battle.
She could only watch as her father was besieged by the five Demon Gods, barely clinging to life.
She could only watch as one familiar elder after another burned their essence and fought with everything they had.
She could only watch as the Alternate Space was invaded by Demon Gods, leaving creatures in ruin.
“Father… Emperor…”
She murmured unconsciously, her tears long dried.
At this moment, Gu Xing’s figure suddenly appeared beside her.
Long Qingyan was initially startled, seemingly not realizing when someone appeared next to her.
But when she lifted her head in confusion and saw Gu Xing’s face, her hollow pupils contracted sharply.
This face… This face!
Although the temperament and demeanor were completely different, she would never mistake it!
It was that man!
The man who once warned her father of the impending invasion of the Demon Race!
“It’s… it’s you?!”
Long Qingyan was filled with disbelief, as if afraid this was just a near-death illusion.
Gu Xing looked at the despairing Long Qingyan.
She had completely grown up.
From a mischievous child to a qualified Dragon Race Princess.
However, at this moment, she was as fragile as a flickering candle.
Completely different from the Long Qingyan who was later filled with grace and despair!
“Please! Please save my father! Save this world!”
Long Qingyan, as if grasping at her last lifeline, suddenly threw herself at Gu Xing’s feet.
Disregarding etiquette, she grabbed his clothes, looked up with a face stained with blood and tears, and pleaded with all her strength:
“As long as you can save them, I’m willing to give you anything!”
“My life, my soul, everything I have can be yours! Please!”
Seeing this scene, Gu Xing was momentarily stunned.
He suddenly remembered that Long Qingyan had once told him.
She once begged him!
That was the only time she ever pleaded with anyone!
But Long Qingyan initially said that the one she prayed to was the Savior of the Alternate Space.
But Long Qingyan’s current actions made Gu Xing suddenly realize a fact.
The Savior…
It seemed to be him!
Realizing this, Gu Xing felt as if everything was connected.
Since he was the Savior, it meant the one who sealed the Demon God…
Was him!
At this moment, he also suddenly remembered.
The familiar aura above those nine Demon Gates seemed to belong to… Tushan Yueli!
Initially, Gu Xing only intended to retrieve the missing Divine Pattern Fragment for Sally.
He did not plan to interfere with the progression of this time node.
Last time, he wanted to stop the Demon God’s invasion, only to realize it was impossible.
The grand trend was unstoppable!
Therefore, this time he originally intended to be just a passerby.
But now…
He found himself unexpectedly a part of the historical process.
Gu Xing’s gaze slowly moved past Long Qingyan, falling on the Dragon Emperor in the distant sky, whose aura grew weaker.
With his keen eyes, he could naturally see that the Dragon Emperor was at his wit’s end.
The essence was depleted and the divine soul severely damaged.
It was purely by force of unyielding will that he clung on, ready to fall at any moment.
“Boom——!!!”
Just as all causes and effects became gradually clear in Gu Xing’s mind, an unexpected change suddenly occurred in the sky!
That gigantic golden dragon, whose Life Fire seemed about to extinguish at any moment.
At the moment of Gu Xing’s appearance, those vast and dim dragon eyes seemed to be suddenly infused with a final spark of light.
He did not look at the five wildly laughing Demon Gods, nor did he look at the Elf Empress struggling behind him.
Instead, his gaze pierced through the shattered space and landed on Gu Xing.
That gaze carried a sense of…
Finally there’s relief!
“Finally… you’re here!”
A weak soul transmission, tinged with a hint of release, resonated directly in the hearts of Gu Xing and Long Qingyan.
“Father——!!!”
Long Qingyan seemed to sense something, let out a heart-wrenching scream, and struggled to rush toward the sky.
However, everything was too late.
Suddenly, the massive dragon body erupted with a brilliance beyond its own limit, a last radiant glow before it extinguished!
This golden light was not an attack, but…
Self-destruction!
“Old dragon eel, what are you trying to do?!”
Demon God Abyss seemed to sense something and shouted sharply.
But what answered Him was the earth-shattering, resolute dragon roar of the Dragon Emperor!
“Roarーー!!!”
With this roar, seemingly exhausting all its remaining strength, echoing through the heavens and earth.
The Dragon Emperor’s shattered gigantic dragon form imploded violently from within!
