Chapter 239: The Forbidden Land of Gods, The Golden Dragon King's Rampage
Although some factions decided to give up, many still longed to claim the weapon. Even if no one in their ranks currently possessed a dragon-type martial spirit, there was always a chance that someone might awaken one in the future.
At the very least, such a priceless weapon would serve as a legendary collectible—and they couldn't risk letting it fall into an enemy's hands.
"Teacher, if you were to obtain that Golden Dragon Spear, your strength would rise to an entirely new level!"
Yan Shaozhe spoke excitedly to Mu En of Shrek Academy.
With his teacher's Light Holy Dragon martial spirit, the Golden Dragon Spear was a perfect fit.
If Mu En wielded it, his fighting power would soar, once again securing Shrek Academy's unquestionable dominance over the continent.
"It is indeed an extraordinary treasure," Mu En said seriously. "If necessary, we must fight for it. But… we should still observe for now."
"Do not forget about the Soul Beast race—Di Tian and the others. They will never allow such a weapon to fall into human hands."
The elder's expression wavered with temptation. He had long lacked a suitable weapon.
The Golden Dragon's power far surpassed that of the Light Holy Dragon, embodying the element of ultimate strength itself.
If he could grasp the spear and comprehend the divine energy of the Golden Dragon's bloodline, perhaps his own martial spirit could evolve into a true Holy Light Dragon—attaining the limit of ultimate light.
He did intend to compete for it but had no illusions; the Soul Beast race now boasted two god-level beings. He would not risk Shrek Academy's millennia of heritage on mere ambition.
The others sighed silently, sharing his thoughts.
Indeed, the Soul Beast race had become a force beyond their reach.
All they could do was wait—and hope that Di Tian would choose not to intervene.
Unfortunately, their hopes would soon be crushed.
…
Divine Realm, The Forbidden Land of Gods.
The Divine Forbidden Land was where the gods imprisoned ancient evils, fallen deities, and countless monsters. It was one of the most secretive and perilous regions within the Divine Realm.
At its center towered the grand seal known as the Tower of Divine Prohibition—a structure reinforced by the combined might of the five God Kings.
Suddenly, the once-still tower began to tremble violently, releasing turbulent waves of energy that split space itself.
Within moments, four radiant figures appeared. Drawn by the disturbance, they were none other than the four God Kings: Destruction, Evil, Life, and Kindness.
"Fortunately, we arrived in time," said the God King of Destruction gravely. "To think that the seal set by the five of us would begin to loosen… If it continued like this, the Golden Dragon King might actually have broken free someday."
He exhaled a tense sigh. If they hadn't discovered the flaw so soon, the consequences would have been catastrophic.
"The cause must be the Silver Dragon King's rise in strength," said the God King of Evil coldly. "Her power resonates with his bloodline. As she grows stronger, so does he."
"She cannot be allowed to advance any further. If she reaches the level of a God King and once again fuses with the Golden Dragon King, the catastrophe that destroyed the Divine Realm tens of thousands of years ago will surely repeat itself."
His tone was sharp, eyes filled with killing intent. The Silver Dragon King was now marked for elimination.
"The matter of the Silver Dragon King can wait," said the God King of Destruction cautiously. "For now, we must reinforce the seal. The Golden Dragon King must never escape the Tower of Divine Prohibition."
The others nodded. They took position at the four cardinal directions around the tower and unleashed their divine power, channeling it through their divine artifacts.
In an instant, a massive formation appeared, blazing with radiant colors as divine energy converged atop the tower.
Wave after wave of godly might enveloped the entire structure. The tower roared in response, trembling under their combined strength.
Deep within the center of the tower, a colossal golden dragon coiled upon itself in the void.
Sensing the seal tighten once again, its scarlet eyes blazed with murderous fury.
"Roar!!!"
A torrent of blood energy erupted from its body, distorting the air with suffocating heat.
The ferocity of its life force was so great that the surrounding space began to rip apart.
At once, the Golden Dragon King's blood-red pupils expanded, bursting with rage.
His body pulsed with power as his essence surged outward in devastating waves. The energy rolled through the confines of the tower, annihilating everything in its path.
"Retreat! Quickly!" shouted the God King of Kindness, his face paling.
"Could it be he intends to self-destruct?"
The four of them retreated rapidly while pouring every ounce of their divine power into countering the oncoming burst.
If the energy wave spread unchecked, it could utterly destroy the Divine Realm itself.
Even so, they were still caught in the backlash—each struck violently and forced to spit blood.
Their combined might managed to contain the explosion within the Forbidden Land, suppressing the Golden Dragon King's fury—barely.
"Golden Dragon King! Cease your pointless struggle!" roared the God King of Evil. "You will rot within this prison until the end of eternity!"
"Ha ha ha… You think your fragile prison can hold me forever?"
The Golden Dragon King's laughter shook the tower.
"When I break free, I will devour every god in your realm—each and every one of you will become nourishment for my bloodline!"
But his anger drained what remained of his energy.
After a final surge, his colossal form gradually quieted. The seals re-stabilized, and the tower's vibrations slowly ceased.
For now, the Golden Dragon King had fallen silent again—his vengeance postponed, but his fury still smoldering within the darkness.
