"Plane invasions aren't actually terrifying."
"What's terrifying is that the Douluo Continent can no longer nurture God-level powerhouses. Even though this era is filled with strong individuals, gaining the upper hand against other planes..."
"Is as difficult as ascending to heaven, because other planes have at least one powerhouse at the level of a first-grade deity!"
Tree Elder gritted his teeth and couldn't help but speak. For a world to invade another plane, it must have nurtured powerful deities.
Even if not a God King, at least a peak first-grade deity—an existence that could become an Archgod in the Douluo God Realm. But without a god realm and unable to nurture deities, the Douluo Continent...
Could only suffer helplessly.
"Tang San..."
After giving up hope on Tang San's son and deciding to follow Tang Luochuan, Tree Elder's resentment toward that man had long since taken root in his heart.
If even he could sense this crisis, he didn't believe the so-called Supreme Gods of the god realm couldn't feel it—or rather...
Tang San couldn't possibly be unaware!
Yet, up to now, Tang San hadn't left any contingencies. Even Tang Hao, the only deity in the Douluo world, showed no signs of preparation...
Tree Elder could sense at any moment that the other party was leisurely farming in a fertile field, carefree and without any pressure...
These Tang father and son...
Did they truly intend to send a group of Douluo powerhouses—armed only with Martial Soul talent and devoid of God Power—to their deaths?
"..."
"What Tree Elder fears is precisely the impending plane invasion, isn't it?"
Hearing this, Tang Luochuan's expression also darkened as he spoke slowly. With his foreknowledge, he naturally understood what Tree Elder was referring to.
It was the Abyss Invasion that would erupt in the future, and the strongest of the Abyssal Plane, the Abyss Sage Monarch, was a first-grade deity.
Moreover, he wielded a Super Artifact, a rarity even in the god realm!
At that time, the top human powerhouses suffered heavy casualties in that battle, while the fruits of victory were ultimately reaped by a certain "righteous" God of the Realm, Tang Hao...
The Douluo Plane evolved, but the historical records of that battle would only credit Tang Hao and Tang Wulin, grandfather and grandson, for their heroic stand against the Abyss.
"Exactly."
Tree Elder nodded helplessly.
"A first-grade deity from a plane invasion..."
Hearing this, Gu Yue, standing nearby, also frowned, fully aware of the gravity of the situation.
Even an ordinary God-level existence was beyond the reach of the current strongest on the Douluo Continent, let alone a top-tier first-grade deity nurtured by an entire plane.
With such a ticking time bomb looming, how could the Douluo Continent not be in danger?
But now...
Her gaze fell on Tang Luochuan beside her, and Gu Yue couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. Given at most ten years, both Luo Chuan and she would undoubtedly reach the pinnacle.
Not to mention Luo Chuan possessed the Dragon God's Inheritance...
Once the Dragon God emerged, what first-grade deity...
Would dare to come near?
Moreover, he had other inheritances. Even without becoming the Dragon God, the powers of Destruction and Life alone could overwhelm a first-grade deity when the time came.
"But now, with Luo Chuan Gongzi and the rest of you..."
"The scales of victory have already tipped in our favor."
Tree Elder smiled warmly, his face beaming.
A true Child of Nature has terrifying potential. Take Dai Yuhao, the former Emotion God, for example. Had he not been manipulated by Tang San, his future potential would have far surpassed that of a mere first-rank deity. But let's not dwell on that.
However, Luo Chuan Gongzi would never be subject to such influences, let alone with his Golden Dragon King Bloodline...
And with the Silver Dragon King also present, it's hard to say who will ultimately prevail—who will invade whom!
"Luo Chuan Gongzi, your Martial Soul is the Golden Dragon King. Should you ascend to godhood in the future, you will become a supreme deity."
"And Gu Yue and Na'er, if I'm not mistaken, you are the Silver Dragon King, the Lord of the Beast Race from the Star Dou Great Forest, aren't you...?"
Tree Elder spoke slowly, his gaze settling on Gu Yue and Na'er, his tone reverent.
"!"
"Gu Yue-jie..."
Hearing this, Gu Yue remained expressionless, but Na'er visibly stiffened, clearly not expecting their identities to be revealed so bluntly.
Then... what about Luo Chuan Gege...?
"That's correct."
"I am the Silver Dragon King of Star Dou, and Na'er here is my twin sister."
Gu Yue remained composed as she acknowledged it.
This day was bound to come. With the Fearsome Beasts of Star Dou around, her identity as the Silver Dragon King could never remain hidden.
Being exposed today was no big deal.
As she spoke, she instinctively glanced at Tang Luochuan, as if gauging his reaction. But all she met was a pair of calm, gentle eyes.
"Luo Chuan, this..."
Seeing this, Gu Yue froze momentarily.
Beside her, when Na'er mustered the courage to look over, she too was met with bright, tender eyes.
Luo Chuan Gege's reaction...
Was he really this calm?
"So it truly is the Silver Dragon King..."
"Luo Chuan Gongzi is the Golden Dragon King, and Gu Yue-daren is the Silver Dragon King. No wonder you've gathered together..."
Watching them acknowledge their identities so frankly, Tree Elder was momentarily stunned before speaking respectfully.
The Lord of the Beast Race—the Silver Dragon King!
He could no longer address her as "Gu Yue-xiaojie." She was now "daren." But then again, calling Luo Chuan "Gongzi" now seemed a bit odd...
At this moment, Tree Elder's mind was in turmoil.
"By the way, both daren."
"Although the divine realm of this era cannot sense you, that God of the Realm, Tang Hao—Tang San's loyal dog—still poses a threat to you."
"Luo Chuan-daren carries traces of God Power, but it's ultimately insufficient. Moreover, Gu Yue-daren lacks it entirely..."
"Without the blessing of God Power, it will be difficult to contend."
Suddenly realizing something, Tree Elder couldn't help but speak up.
Na'er bore almost no trace of the Dragon King's bloodline, so she wasn't at risk. But if Tang Hao were to sense Tang Luochuan and Gu Yue...
That would still be dangerous.
"God Power..."
Hearing this, Tang Luochuan merely shook his head dismissively. Exchanging a glance with Gu Yue, they both smiled faintly.
"Tree Elder, my bloodline has undergone evolution. Beyond the Dragon God's Inheritance granted by my Dragon God Bloodline..."
"I also had the fortune to inherit the legacies of the late God of Life and the God King of Destruction."
Tang Luochuan smiled faintly as he spoke.
"..."
"Huh?"
Hearing these words, Tree Elder gave him a bewildered look before his eyes suddenly widened to their limits.
Which two Gods?
The God King of Destruction and the God of Life?
"The Divine Realm..."
"Two of the top five God Kings?"
At this moment, Tree Elder's body couldn't help but tremble. It wasn't that he was saying...
He truly couldn't see how they could lose!
