Chapter 372 The Trajectory of Destiny, Proclaimed to the World.
The five great god-kings were blasted away like kites with broken strings, spewing out golden divine blood from their mouths, their injuries worsening once again!
When the smoke cleared, the five great god kings scrambled to their feet in a disheveled state, but there was no trace of Gu Yuena and the Golden Dragon King.
They had already completely escaped the God Realm and returned to Douluo Continent!
"puff--"
The God of Destruction spat out a mouthful of divine blood, his anger overwhelming him, and he nearly fainted.
"Disgraceful! Utterly disgraceful!"
"Never mind..."
The God of Life closed his eyes wearily, his voice filled with weakness.
"Let's focus on healing our injuries and recovering our strength as soon as possible."
"The Golden Dragon King's power has greatly declined, and it will take hundreds or thousands of years to recover to its peak. As long as we recover as soon as possible, we may be able to suppress them again."
The benevolent God-King nodded slowly with a solemn expression: "Now, with the calamity of the Spirit Realm looming ahead and the Dragon God lineage behind, the God Realm... has reached the brink of life and death."
The five great god-kings were filled with bitterness, but they could only helplessly accept reality and drag their broken divine bodies back to the temple to heal.
...
Meanwhile, in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest on the Douluo Continent.
A moment of spatial distortion and flickering occurred, and Gu Yuena's figure suddenly appeared.
Behind her, a young man wearing a long robe with golden dragon patterns, with an arrogant face and a violent aura, slowly stepped out.
This person was none other than the Golden Dragon King in human form!
The Golden Dragon King took a deep breath, feeling the rich soul power and free air in the Star Dou Great Forest. He couldn't help but look up and exhale a long breath of stale air, his face full of joy.
"The scent of freedom... I can finally smell it!"
"After millions of years, I've finally left that awful place!"
Gu Yuena looked at him, a hint of relief in her eyes.
"This is the Star Dou Great Forest of Douluo Continent, the foundation of the Soul Beast race. The five God Kings are currently seriously injured and dare not descend easily."
"You can rest assured to heal your wounds here and restore your Dragon God essence."
The Golden Dragon King nodded, his expression turning solemn as he felt the depleted and broken dragon blood within his body.
"I have been suppressed for too long, my power has greatly decreased, and my dragon body has been damaged. I do need to go into seclusion for a long time to repair myself."
"but..."
His gaze sharpened. "Who severely injured the five God-Kings? I can sense that although you have become a God-King, you alone could not have done this."
"It's Lu Xiao, the dean of Beidou Academy."
Gu Yuena stated frankly.
"He controls the power of creation, and his strength far surpasses that of the God Kings. He single-handedly defeated five God Kings and even killed a God King from the outer spirit realm. He is currently the strongest person on the continent."
"The coordinates of the Spirit Realm have been leaked, and a catastrophe is imminent. We must recover our strength as soon as possible and join forces with him to protect the continent."
The Golden Dragon King's pupils contracted, his heart churning with shock, but he nodded emphatically: "I understand!"
Just as the two were talking, the sky suddenly burst into golden light again!
More solemn and imbued with the oppressive aura of destiny than ever before, it swept across the entire Douluo Continent!
All eyes turned to the sky once again, their hearts pounding wildly!
They waited for a long time!
The list of hypocrites is finally going to be officially released!
Above the celestial canopy, a line of explanatory text first appeared, each word gleaming with golden light, carrying an awe-inspiring authority that seemed to understand the will of Heaven:
[The ranking list is based on the original life trajectory of Douluo Continent]
From the moment the heavens descended, the rewards were distributed, and fate was rewritten, the original future has utterly collapsed.
This list represents only "history that should have happened" and is for reference only; it does not represent what will inevitably happen in the future.
As soon as those words were spoken, the entire continent was once again in an uproar!
"So that's how it is! The celestial canopy is looking at the original future!"
"So, those on the list were, in their original destiny, hypocrites?"
"Now fate has changed, everything is different? Even so, it's still terrifying! The Sky Curtain can even see through the past and the future!"
"..."
Countless people were discussing it, their curiosity pushed to the extreme!
They desperately wanted to know who the hypocrite was in the original future!
Soon, the text on the screen began to scroll.
The list of hypocrites has officially begun publishing its rankings!
[List of Hypocrites: Number 10]
[Character: Avalanche]
[Identity: Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, future Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire]
[Reason for being fake:]
1. The disguise of enduring hardship and biding one's time: In order to avoid assassination by Qian Renxue (Xue Qinghe), he disguised himself as a playboy for many years, pretending to be crazy and fooling the emperor and the entire court.
2. Utilitarian Exploitation: After Tang San helped Xue Beng quell the rebellion and reclaim the throne, Xue Beng was extremely respectful to Tang San and even became his disciple. However, his true intention was to use Tang San to protect the imperial power and destroy the Spirit Hall; he showed no genuine respect whatsoever.
[Penalty: Luck Value -2%, Talent Value -1]
The release of the rankings caused an instant uproar throughout the entire Douluo Continent!
"Avalanche? Who's that? Never heard of it!"
"It's a prince of the Heaven Dou Empire! He's never appeared on any previous list before, and now that he's on it, it's the list of hypocrites?"
"Feigning madness to evade pursuit, using Tang San to consolidate his throne... Goodness, his scheming is too deep!"
"..."
The vast majority of Soul Masters on the mainland looked completely bewildered!
After all, Avalanche had always been unknown and had no reputation, but within the Heavenly Dou Empire, it caused quite a stir!
Inside the main hall of the Heavenly Dou Empire's Imperial Palace.
Emperor Xueye sat on his dragon throne, looking at the names and judgments on the sky, his brows furrowed and his expression extremely complicated.
His chief strategist was dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to come to his senses before he exclaimed in shock.
"Your Majesty! Prince Avalanche... has been faking it all along?"
"All these years of his纨绔 (spoiled brat), 荒荒 (absurdity), and 无学无利 (ignorance) have all been an act?"
"You even managed to fool Your Majesty!"
The strategist looked on incredulously.
Everyone knows that Prince Xue Beng is the most useless member of the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, indulging in pleasure and lacking ambition.
He's a piece of trash in everyone's eyes!
But who would have thought that all of this was just a disguise to save his life!
Emperor Xueye sighed deeply, his face showing no anger, only a complex mix of emotions and relief.
"Qian Renxue transformed into Xue Qinghe, wreaking havoc in the court and slaughtering the royal family. My royal lineage was almost wiped out. Xue Beng was able to survive by disguising himself, and his intelligence far surpasses that of ordinary people."
"But... he actually used Tang San in the future..."
At this point, Emperor Xueye frowned, his face full of worry.
Tang San's current strength and potential are clearer to him than anyone else; he is the chosen one, backed by the Clear Sky Sect.
If Xue Beng really dares to plot against Tang San, the Heaven Dou Empire will surely be doomed!
"Your Majesty, although Prince Xue Beng is shrewd and capable of ruling, his talent has been punished, and his future cultivation may be difficult to achieve."
The strategist whispered a reminder.
Emperor Xueye's expression was solemn as he slowly nodded, but there was nothing he could do.
Fate has changed, and no one knows what the future holds.
...
The border of the Spirit Hall.
Tang San and Xiao Wu were preparing to go and carry out the inheritance trial of the God of Resentment.
The two looked up at the list of hypocrites in the sky, and when they saw the words "Avalanche" and the description, they were both taken aback.
Xiao Wu paused slightly, turned to look at Tang San beside her, and said softly.
"Third Brother, Tianmu said... in the original future, you would assist him in becoming the emperor, and be used by him?"
Tang San narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold killing intent flashing in them.
His soul power stagnated slightly.
Use him?
He feigned respect for the emperor and became his disciple, but had no true feelings for him.
In Tang San's heart, he could help others, but he would never allow himself to be schemed against or used by others.
Avalanche, you have already chosen your path to death.
"rest assured."
Tang San's voice was calm, yet carried a hint of coldness.
"Fate has been rewritten; there will be no future intersection between him and me."
Tang San withdrew his gaze, no longer paying attention to the rankings, and, holding Xiao Wu's hand, continued walking towards the trial grounds.
For him, improving his strength, completing the inheritance, and protecting Xiao Wu are the most important things.
