The Dragon God had already locked the outcome.
Counting the Supreme authority, a total of ten authorities.
Even if he conceded the Supreme position and only controlled five God King authorities, he could still work wonders and seize control of the God Realm!
Such was the Dragon God's confidence.
Under circumstances where Supreme God Kings had transcended the universe, mastered multiple authorities, and resurrection from death was commonplace, he had killed a sibling – the first Phoenix God!
That spoke for itself.
Now, the Supreme authority Su Ming controlled – reincarnation – had instead been used, binding itself and also binding his other three authorities.
Only the pioneering authority remained.
Could the pioneering authority compete with the Supreme-level bloodline authority?
Su Ming remained calm.
The Dragon God's strategy impressed him. He marveled at the thinking of a seasoned Supreme God King.
However, he also had his own preparations.
Indeed, under the Dragon God's series of operations, he was left with only pioneering. But wasn't the other party also left with only bloodline?
Su Ming smiled.
"Your operations are over. Now, it's my turn."
He then manipulated the reincarnation authority. But before he could do anything, this Supreme authority emitted a groan of overstrain.
Su Ming was not surprised. He looked down at the other two intertwined pairs of God King authorities.
Life and death – annex!
The cycle of life and death was the most fundamental foundation of the reincarnation authority.
Therefore, just as the reincarnation authority was on the verge of overstrain, Su Ming threw the cycle of life and death directly into reincarnation.
The reincarnation authority stabilized.
Su Ming then looked at the forging and Nirvana authorities. He pointed one finger to the sky. A piercing spear intent condensed. The pioneering authority erupted.
At the same time, he fully activated the reincarnation authority. Driven by reincarnation, the forging authority further fused with the Nirvana authority.
The conception and Nirvana of spirituality – this too was a form of reincarnation.
Su Ming, of course, did not re-integrate this system into the reincarnation authority.
Further fusion would only stabilize the reincarnation authority, but most of its power had already been borrowed by the Dragon God to complete the process of the bloodline authority annexing the Elemental God authority and achieving Supreme status.
Supplementing the reincarnation authority at this point would be useless.
Instead, it would further stabilize the other party's bloodline authority, and Su Ming would gain little of reincarnation's power.
Therefore, Su Ming chose to integrate it into the pioneering authority.
The forging authority had been closely related to Su Ming's pioneering authority from the very beginning.
A significant portion of the pioneering intent within the pioneering authority came from the pioneering of the forging system.
Thus, through the forging authority, Su Ming's pioneering authority quickly absorbed the forging authority.
Simultaneously, the gestation and Nirvana of spirituality were also a pioneering of reincarnation. Su Ming then began to annex the Nirvana authority.
Driven by the Supreme reincarnation authority, the Nirvana authority and the forging authority were locked together. Of the three authorities, Su Ming actively controlled two. Their integration was naturally smooth.
However, even so, the temporary unification of the three authorities was merely a simple combination, not an essential transformation.
Su Ming was not flustered.
Pioneering still had room for improvement.
The pioneering of the God Realm was itself a pioneering path.
Thus, using forging and Nirvana as resources, the pioneering authority began to ascend.
"Supreme is out of the question. So, I need to do something more," Su Ming knew this well. He didn't expect the pioneering authority to be able to rival the current bloodline authority after its elevation. So, without even waiting for the result, he directly manipulated the three-in-one authority to merge into the reincarnation authority.
Life and Nirvana – this was a pair of authorities within the Douluo God Realm.
Su Ming's comprehension of life and destruction was also based on the origins left behind after the death of the two God Kings of Destruction and Life in the Douluo God Realm.
Thus, he successfully bridged the two pairs of authorities.
However, he wasn't making them opposing authorities again.
Life and death had already been locked together by the Dragon God, forming a cycle. Su Ming had no excess power to separate them.
What he could do was to let Nirvana step in, becoming a third party.
Nirvana – less complete than death, less full of life than life.
It was a special state, situated between life and death.
Thus, Su Ming, using pioneering to control the forging and Nirvana authorities, forcibly separated the locked state on this side.
The power of the pioneering authority was used here.
After separation, Nirvana joined the life-death cyclemaking it more perfect.
Meanwhile, pioneering continued to fusion forging.
The core of forging was the forging of spirituality.
"Thank you, Dragon God, for interpreting a more complete forging authority for me."
Su Ming smiled, using pioneering to control forging, and then using forging to control the cycle of life, death, and Nirvana.
Then, he controlled this entire entity and detached it from reincarnation.
Through this process of separation and reunion, the pioneering authority had effectively annexed the other four God King authorities.
At this point, the pioneering authority finally crossed that threshold.
Not long ago, Su Ming had only relied on the gestation of the Super Divine Artifact to elevate the pioneering authority to the God King level, still far from the distance to Supreme.
This feat of opening the God Realm had greatly elevated the essence of his pioneering authority.
Yet, even so, it was insufficient to break through to Supreme.
However, Su Ming had once again pioneered the forging authority, completely controlling four God King-level authorities through pioneering.
Under this dual accumulation of quality and quantity, the pioneering authority was finally pushed to the Supreme status.
Feeling that unmatched sharpness, that Supreme status transcending the universe's constraints, the Dragon God fell silent.
"His pioneering authority – clearly it had only just breakthrough to God King level, barely advanced – yet it could consecutively breakthrough to Supreme?"
The Dragon God was shocked.
He trusted his perception very much.
That pioneering authority was definitely not feigning weakness.
At the beginning, it truly was weak.
But after Su Ming's series of operations, it had indeed Devoured the tiger!
"That's it. He must have been on guard against me too. So, this pioneering authority wasn't just filler. It was his trump card. He had long prepared for pioneering to advance to Supreme."
The Dragon God could not accept this.
Because he realized he seemed to have been outmaneuvered.
"No wonder, no wonder he wanted to open up the God Realm in history in advance. So that was it. He wanted to cultivate this authority. He wanted it to advance to Supreme in history, transcend, and then breakthrough in the present."
The Dragon God murmured, as if he had seen through everything.
The Douluo 2 Dragon God had indeed taught Su Ming this – it was the core of authority transcendence.
However, he had guessed the premise incorrectly.
This was always not the past, not history, but the future.
A future that would never occur!
Transcending the pioneering authority in the future was naturally no problem.
Because Su Ming was the Douluo 1 Su Ming.
Even if he transcended at the Douluo 3 node, this authority was the Douluo 1 authority.
This also satisfied the first step of the past being stronger than the future.
"The situation is decided!"
Su Ming took control of the Supreme-level pioneering authority, feeling a surge of inner satisfaction.
This contest of wits should be his victory.
Not only had he won, but he had also successfully pushed the pioneering authority to the Supreme level.
Although his pioneering authority would likely fall back after losing the Dragon God's death authority, would he really lose the death authority?
