"Roar!"
The Asura God King let out a furious roar, constantly bursting with divine power, attempting to break free from the silver chains.
However, as old chains were torn, countless new chains formed out of the void and wrapped around him, unceasingly, reaching a balance.
"Damn it, Silver Dragon King, are you trying to exhaust me?"
The Asura God struggled while confronting Gu Yuena.
"Yes, so what?"
Gu Yuena's lips curled into a cold smile, "Before my divine power runs out, you'll never break free from this sealing formation."
The Asura God raged helplessly.
Because he was skilled in the power of slaughter, but with the chains around him, it was hard for him to execute his moves.
If he had been on his guard sooner, then no matter how powerful Gu Yuena's trapping formation was, he would have found a way to avoid it.
But she had caught him off guard, gaining the upper hand.
The Asura God roared in rage.
"What good is temporarily trapping me? In a battle of attrition, you won't be my match."
"Once this Divine King breaks free, it will be your death day."
"Delaying is meaningless. Why still struggle in your death throes?"
Gu Yuena's hands flipped rapidly, shimmering with the silver power of space.
"Meaningless?"
"Ha, so the day you break free, either I die or you perish?"
"Ha?"
The Asura God let out a disdainful snort of derision.
"You think to put me to death?"
"With just the two of you, remnants of the Dragon Clan, dare you?"
"Then let's try and see."
Gu Yuena's purple eyes were determined, without any hesitation or doubt.
The Asura God continued to struggle, while launching a verbal assault, trying to break Gu Yuena's resolve and find an opportunity to escape.
"You can't be hoping that this kid will be capable of dealing with this Divine King within ten years?"
"Let me tell you, not just ten years, but even a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand years, what of it?"
"This Divine King has cultivated for endless eons to achieve such strength, what makes this kid so special?"
"A genius? This Divine King is the top genius of the Divine Realm, with infinite resources at my disposal. What makes you think he can catch up to me?"
Every word from the Asura God King was like a jewel, relentlessly mocking and scoffing, yet logical and grounded.
Trying to make Gu Yuena doubt herself, to waver in spirit.
But, to the Asura God's surprise, he found Gu Yuena's gaze as resolute as ever, her actions decisive and final.
Without any hesitation.
He was greatly shocked.
This...
How could this be possible?
Did this woman truly have such faith in this mortal kid?
The Asura God did recognize his talent, but couldn't believe that ten years would be enough.
"Boom!"
Gu Yuena clenched her silver teeth.
Her body erupted with surging silver light, and a complex, elaborate formation appeared in the void, with silver chains continuously forming from it.
Ordinary chains naturally couldn't trap the Asura God, but these were all chains formed by the formation with the power of space.
Breaking each chain was like breaking a piece of space - naturally, no easy feat.
The formation kept shrinking, the ground collapsed, creating a dark abyss.
"You asked me why I have confidence in him, didn't you?"
As the focal point of the formation, Gu Yuena suppressed the Asura God into the abyss while emitting a chilling voice.
"Because—he is Luo Yu."
"The man Gu Yuena has set her sights on."
The Asura God was first taken aback, then his howls rose incessantly.
"Hahaha."
"The mighty Silver Dragon King has actually fallen for a human man, and blindly believes in him, it's utterly laughable."
"Sealing me for ten years? To this Divine King, it's nothing more than a nap. You'll live in fear for these ten years."
"Once this Divine King breaks through the seal, it will be the time of your death,"
The Asura God's words at the end were filled with murderous intent, decisive and unrelenting, leaving no room for mercy.
The formidable iron-blooded killer of the Divine Realm had actually been schemed against by the remnants of the Dragon Clan, driving him to the apex of fury.
"Boom!"
Gu Yuena, dragging the Asura God, fell into a dark pit, a silver membrane covering the sky above once they were inside.
What was happening below was obscured from sight.
All fell silent.
The once lush plains were hardly recognizable, the land cracked and broken, a desolate scene of chaos before the eyes.
In the sky, the clouds were torn apart and scattered in the wind.
Violent particles of energy still wandered around.
Luo Yu stood straight, his deep gaze focused on the place where Gu Yuena had disappeared.
He could sense that Gu Yuena was exhausting all her divine power, struggling to delay the Asura God's escape with the help of the formation.
All to buy him time.
Whether to seize this opportunity to flee—for he carried the inheritances of the Sea God and the Music Deity.
Easily, he could ascend to the Divine Realm.
After all, he possessed Twin Martial Souls, and with the help of the Thousand Illusion Mask to disguise himself, the Divine Realm would struggle to detect the aura of the Dragon Clan on him.
This body he now occupied was entirely unrelated to soul beasts, and naturally wouldn't be discovered.
A faint smile spread across Luo Yu's lips.
He was thinking, Gu Yuena must have thought the same, right? Better one death than two.
Ensuring that he could at least live and leave.
If he could be a match for the Asura God in ten years, he would come to rescue her; if not, he would flee this world.
Change his appearance and ascend to the Divine Realm, or maybe travel somewhere else.
As he smiled, Luo Yu's eyes turned determined and serious.
Abandon his own woman to save his life?
He could never do such a thing in his lifetime.
He might always be cautious, but that did not mean he was afraid of death, even if his opponent was the Asura God.
What did it matter if the Asura God captured him and subjected him to endless torture?
Even if it meant certain death, he would not leave his woman behind to flee, right?
The most important thing in Luo Yu's life was his promises, a man of his word.
He had promised to take revenge for Gu Yuena, so how could he run away in the heat of battle?
He clenched his fists.
"I've always said, as you have never failed me, how could I possibly fail you?"
"Ten years, I don't need ten years. No matter the cost, I must surpass the Asura God, save you, and take revenge for the Dragon Clan."
Luo Yu's eyes shone with Purple-Gold Divine Light, his aura condensed to the extreme.
As if making a grand vow, the surrounding space began to rumble.
He took one last deep look at the ground, his eyes flickering, and then he decisively left.
Now was not the time for nostalgia and sorrow.
At the right time, one must do the right thing.
With his current Titled Douluo cultivation level, he was ready to absorb the soul bone of the Spatial Dragon King.
...
Elsewhere, in the sunless abyssal plane,
Within its deepest layer,
One hundred and two emperors stood obediently below, while an imposing and cold middle-aged specter stood above them.
As if sensing something.
Suddenly, his divine thoughts stirred, releasing a wild burst of laughter.
"Hahaha."
At this moment, the red-lipped and white-teethed Emperor Zhi stepped forward to inquire.
"Emperor, may I ask what has excited you so?"
The Abyssal Emperor looked down from above, a pleased expression on his face.
"This emperor has detected two powers that surpass those of a Level One Deity clashing in Soul Land,"
"And then they both vanished."
"Do you know what this means?"
