139: Chapter 139: The Two Overbearing Dragon Kings and the Awakening of the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena

A warm current surged through the Snow Empress's heart. She steadied herself and, facing those two towering phantoms, said respectfully and with all her might, "Junior Snow Empress, a Spirit Beast from the Far North, thanks... the two senior Dragon Kings... for your assistance!"

Her voice was weak, yet it rang out clearly amidst the roar of the dragon might and the tribulation lightning.

However, the two remnant soul phantoms of the Ice and Fire Dragon King did not respond to the Snow Empress's gratitude.

Their attention seemed entirely captured by the pitch-black tribulation clouds and the speck of light churning in the sky—the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao's will, intent on putting the Snow Empress to death.

Or rather, they were enraged by a deeper, cold, and ruthless will behind those tribulation clouds.

"Presumptuous——!!!"

The first to speak was the phantom of the Ice Dragon King, whose entire body was ice blue.

Its voice did not travel through the air but instead resonated directly within the depths of every living being's soul!

The voice was cold, majestic, and filled with boundless fury and an extreme sense of dignity that had been offended!

"We!"

"Are the Elemental Main Gods under the Dragon God! We rule over the ice and fire authority of the Divine Realm and are eternal and immortal!"

The crimson phantom of the Fire Dragon King roared immediately after, its voice as blazing as fire, as if it could ignite the soul, carrying a fury that could burn through the eight wildernesses!

Although the two remnant souls of the Dragon Kings were illusory, their simultaneous roar exerted such might that it actually dispersed the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation clouds in the sky even further!

The invisible sound waves turned into a tangible shockwave that spread in all directions. Qian Renxue, Ning Fengzhi, and the others at the edge of the forest all turned pale. They hurriedly released their strongest Soul Power to form shields, desperately resisting this dual impact on their souls and bodies!

The Spirit Beasts in the forest groaned, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths, and they all knelt down.

The Ice Dragon King's cold voice, which seemed capable of freezing time, continued to boom, carrying an indifference and disdain as if looking down upon ants, its spearhead pointed directly at the invisible will of the Heavenly Dao:

"You are merely a celestial body in a lower plane, a newly born, ignorant, dead object following a set trajectory!"

"How dare you, in our presence, plot to eradicate a talented junior of our Spirit Beast lineage who has the potential to ascend to Divinity?!"

"Who gave you the nerve?! Who gave you the authority?!"

The Fire Dragon King's blazing roar followed, its voice filled with the fury of being provoked and an absolute pride stemming from an ancient God King:

"When we traversed the Divine Realm and looked down upon the ages, you, this celestial body, were still gestating in chaos!"

"Our fall was the result of contending with Divinity and fighting for the survival of our race! Our heroic souls are undying, and our wills remain eternal!"

"How can we allow you, an ignorant law of heaven and earth, to bully our juniors in the place where we slumber?!"

"Begone——!!!"

The final word, "Begone," combined the last of the Ice and Fire Dragon King's remnant souls' power, transforming into a terrifying beam of red and blue light containing fragments of the origin laws of ice and fire, which slammed fiercely into the pitch-black tribulation clouds and that terrifying speck of light in the sky!

"Hum——!"

That "speck of light," representing the final judgment of the Heavenly Dao, seemed to sense a fatal threat. It flickered frantically, attempting to gather its remaining power to counterattack.

However, before this strike from the remnant souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon King—which contained the will of a God King-level status and struck directly at the origin of laws—the power it derived from the will of the Douluo plane appeared so pale and weak!

"Sizzle——!"

Wherever the red and blue light beam passed, the pitch-black tribulation clouds melted and dissipated rapidly, like snow encountering a scorching sun!

That terrifying speck of light emitted a silent, unwilling shriek before being completely engulfed and shattered by the light beam!

The terrifying Heavenly Tribulation clouds that had covered hundreds of miles and made everyone gasp for air were, under this earth-shattering blow, torn apart as if by an invisible giant hand, collapsing and dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In just a few breaths, the apocalyptic scene vanished into thin air, revealing the long-lost sky behind it—though still dim, it was no longer filled with an aura of destruction.

The afterglow of the setting sun struggled through the thin clouds, spilling onto this devastated land.

The Heavenly Tribulation... dissipated?

It was forcibly blasted away by the remnant souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon King in such a domineering, barbaric, and unquestionable manner?!

Everyone stared blankly at the sky, at the two giant dragon phantoms that were beginning to fade but still stood towering, radiating an unyielding will, their minds completely blank.

Forcibly interfering with, and even defeating, the Heavenly Tribulation?

This was simply defying the heavens and overturning all common knowledge!

What kind of terrifying power and status would this require?

One must know, these were only their fallen remnant souls; if it were them in their prime, how strong would they be?

It was simply unimaginable.

The Snow Empress stared blankly at the two senior Dragon Kings who had protected her and defeated the Heavenly Tribulation. In her ice-blue eyes, shock, gratitude, reverence, and a trace of longing for a higher realm were intertwined.

She knew that if not for the awakening of the two Dragon Kings' remnant souls, she would have undoubtedly died today.

Lu Jing also let out a long sigh of relief, the clothes on his back soaked through with cold sweat.

He had bet correctly!

The origin aura of the World-Destroying Black Lotus, combined with his questioning that struck directly at the pride and responsibility of the two Dragon Kings, had successfully activated their dormant remnant will!

However, looking at the two dragon phantoms that were beginning to turn illusory and seemed ready to dissipate at any moment, he also knew that this was likely the last time the two Dragon Kings' remnant souls would shine.

However, just as everyone thought the crisis was resolved and the dust had settled——

Outside the Sunset Forest, in the high sky hundreds of miles away from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the space suddenly split open without warning, creating a huge rift with edges flowing with silver radiance!

A figure stepped out from that spatial rift.

The person was tall and graceful, wearing a simple silver dress that outlined breathtaking curves.

She had long silver hair like flowing mercury, cascading down to her ankles, shimmering with a hazy luster under the setting sun.

Her face was so beautiful it was hard to describe in words, as if it gathered all the spiritual beauty and nobility in the world, yet it carried an inhuman, cold, and lonely temperament.

Most striking were her eyes, like two of the purest amethysts, deep, mysterious, and containing endless wisdom and vicissitudes, as well as the intense emotional fluctuations that were hard to conceal at this moment—shock, ecstasy, disbelief, and... a trace of tears?

Her gaze instantly traversed the hundreds of miles, locking tightly onto the giant dragon phantoms above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well—those phantoms that were beginning to become transparent but still emitted a familiar aura that made her soul tremble!

"Ice... Fire... it really is you... your auras... to think they still remain in the world..."

The silver-haired, purple-eyed woman murmured to herself, her voice ethereal and pleasant, yet laced with a hint of a sob.

Two lines of clear tears slid silently down her stunningly beautiful face.

The next moment, she moved again, ignoring the distance of space. With a flash of silver light, she appeared above the valley of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, facing the two dragon phantoms that were about to dissipate from afar.

Her appearance was so abrupt, so silent, yet carried an indescribable presence.

Her aura was not particularly domineering or intense, even somewhat restrained, but everyone present, including the remnant souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon King that had just defeated the Heavenly Tribulation, instantly turned their gaze toward her!

The Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena!

Awakened from her slumber, tearing through space, traveling thousands of miles, she had finally arrived at this place where destiny converged!
