The extremely compressed power within Gu Yuena's body erupted instantly. Her consciousness fell into a void, and her divine sense seemed to have detached from her body and the entire world.
She felt as if she had reached the origin of the universe, witnessing the explosion from a single point—from point to line, line to plane, and then to a three-dimensional universe...
This was clearly the transformation of the universe! From one-dimensional space to two-dimensional, then to three-dimensional, four-dimensional... these wondrous changes gradually constructed the entire universe.
The universe was so vast, yet so tiny. Perhaps a grain of sand was a universe in itself. Or perhaps countless galaxies were merely a corner of the universe.
This was the mystery of the universe, its strangeness. Invisibly, a wondrous aura dispersed in the air, and all the singular changes lingered in her heart.
All the great explosions seemed to be disappearing, and she could no longer feel pain. When her consciousness gradually returned, she felt her incredibly strong delicate body and saw the shocked gazes around her.
Eighteen God Kings, the eighteen God Kings of the former Dragon God Realm, were all staring at Gu Yuena at this moment, their eyes full of reverence and relief.
Gu Yuena turned her gaze toward them. At this moment, as the Master of the Divine Star, she could clearly see everything about these God Kings, including their souls and divine sense thoughts.
Finally, she looked at the Time Dragon King and the Space Dragon King. Within their divine senses, she saw certain special things dissipating due to the universal severance.
Those were illusions—the illusions that the universal laws had once lingered in the minds of the Time and Space Dragon Kings. In their illusions, the moment the Divine Star was achieved was the moment the entire Dragon God Realm would collapse. Only by preventing the achievement of the Divine Star could the Dragon God Realm continue to exist and the Dragon Clan be passed down.
They had gone to other Dragon Kings to lobby them, but the others simply did not believe them. They had also tentatively spoken to the Dragon God, but at that time, the Dragon God was immersed in the dream of achieving the Divine Star, passing the throne to his son, and going to find his wife.
Ultimately, they chose to take a risk.
They did not hesitate to betray the Dragon God, hoping to allow the Dragon Clan to endure. The moment they pushed the Dragon Clan Crown Prince forward, they had actually already regretted it. But at that time, they did it as if possessed.
This was clearly the influence of the universal laws on them! The universal laws absolutely did not allow an independent Divine Star to exist!
The countermeasure Tang Xuanyu came up with at the last moment was to follow the universal laws. Maintaining the balance of the universe by letting it develop steadily was in line with the universe's interests. Thus, powerful law enforcers were needed in the universe to maintain that balance.
The universal laws needed law enforcers, so Tang Xuanyu became that law enforcer.
But a so-called universal law enforcer was ultimately an act of compromise toward the Great Will of the universe!
Gu Yuena's choice was to incorporate the Divine Star into her body, forming a realm within herself and creating a new universe!
Everything continuously circled in Gu Yuena's mind. Her divine sense was incomparably clear, and she could feel more clearly than ever that her power had never been this strong. Her divine sense had reached the Supreme God King realm in a single step!
She also heard calls—calls belonging to the Dragon Clan. These calls came from all directions, from countless planes.
These were her subjects calling out to her. Her people were excited by the return of the Dragon God. The Dragon Clan finally had an independent home; their Co-Lord had returned!
The emotions of the eighteen God Kings before her gradually returned to normal, their faces showing looks of adoration. They raised their hands, waved goodbye to Gu Yuena, and vanished into bubbles one by one, disappearing into thin air.
As each figure disappeared, a singular aura merged into Gu Yuena's body—that was a deity position.
A total of ten branded deity positions merged into Gu Yuena's sea of divine sense. These were the deity positions of the Ten Great Dragon Kings belonging to the Dragon Clan.
From this moment on, Gu Yuena was the true Dragon God. When she rebuilt the Divine Realm based on the Dragon Realm, it would be the time she bestowed the Dragon King deity positions.
At this time, the young man standing beside her revealed a relieved smile.
"Yuhao..." Gu Yuena could no longer control her feelings. Two lines of clear tears slowly fell as she practically lunged at him, kissing him with immense force.
Huo Yuhao gently patted her back, responding to her fiery emotions.
This kiss seemed as if it would last until the end of time.
"Ma... Mother?"
Right at this moment, an ill-timed, startled voice broke this warm scene.
Tang Xuanyu had arrived. He had been madly constructing spatial wormholes, rushing here from the distant Douluo star system, only to witness this scene.
His mother in this space-time was forcefully hugging a young man she had never met, seeking a kiss...
But he was not Tang Wulin at all. Furthermore, if Tang Wulin was the pinnacle of handsomeness, the young man before him was transcendentally evil and charming, his entire body exuding a bizarre aura, just like... the former Crimson Mother!
"He is the Dragon God and universal law enforcer Lan Xuanyu, also known as Tang Xuanyu." Huo Yuhao quickly recognized the young man through his connection with his divine sense clone and transmitted the thought.
"Mmhmm..." Gu Yuena nodded gently. She could feel an identical aura and bloodline from the other party. Without Huo Yuhao needing to explain, she guessed the visitor's identity.
Tang Xuanyu's gaze rapidly turned gloomy. He did not forget to glance in the direction of the Longma Twin Stars—the Tianma Twin Stars. This star had reached the brink of decay due to the heavy extraction by Gu Yuena, the Ice Empress, and the Demon Tree King.
"Demon King, Huo Yuhao?"
"Dragon God, Lan Xuanyu?"
Both sides stated the other's identity at almost the same time, confronting each other from a distance in space.
"Yuhao, he is a Dragon God just like me." Gu Yuena stood in front of Huo Yuhao, her expression grave.
"Mmhmm. Are you confident in dealing with him?" Huo Yuhao had to admit that right now, he was indeed not yet a match for Dragon God Tang Xuanyu.
"It is hard to say. He is a universal law enforcer; every move he makes can easily mobilize the universal laws." Gu Yuena smiled bitterly. She had just achieved the Dragon God position, her foundation was not deep, and she was still rejected by the universal laws. It was difficult to gain an advantage against Tang Xuanyu, who was also a Dragon God.
"I will strike with you." Huo Yuhao brandished the Demon King Halberd. Having initially fused with the Crimson Mother, he was already considered a Quasi-God King.
"Mother..." Tang Xuanyu looked at Dragon God Gu Yuena with a hint of resentment in his eyes. No matter what, he had to return everything to the right track, even if it meant erasing Gu Yuena's memories.
"Then let us fight, my son from another space-time!" Gu Yuena brandished the Dragon God Spear. All the abilities and moves regarding the Dragon God surfaced in her mind one by one. Her only advantage over Tang Xuanyu was that she was originally half of the Dragon God and possessed all the divine skills that originally belonged to the Dragon God!
"For Xiuxiu, and for myself—" Tang Xuanyu let out a long cry, and the entire Tianma star system began to boil!
The great battle was on the verge of breaking out.
