138: I am Su Ye, the leader of soul beasts!

Whoosh--

As Su Ye unleashed his final strike, a Chaos Fire Phoenix pierced through the Dragon God's body.

The Dragon God's Golden Dragon Spear disappeared, and Su Ye stood holding his spear, without joy or sorrow; he knew he hadn't won.

The Dragon God didn't truly intend to fight him intensely; for him, who was already dead, victory or defeat wasn't that important; he was just sparring.

How could the spear techniques he had practiced for two or three years compare to the spear arts born from the Dragon God's hundreds of thousands of years of combat?

Unfortunately, at this moment, the Dragon God's fused energy was exhausted, merely allowing his 'victory'.

'Young man, you've won~'

An infinitely profound and distant gaze seemed to project through layers of time and space onto Su Ye, and the Dragon God smiled with relief.

At this moment, he seemed to understand why the Time and Space Dragon King had betrayed him back then.

He saw the new small World within Su Ye's body, which was extremely similar to the Divine Dragon Domain he had created.

The difference was...

His Divine Dragon Domain was born from his own power, and only he could drive its growth.

However, the power of his Divine Spark itself was an extremely contradictory existence; destruction and creation tore at his consciousness, and at the same time, tore apart the hope of the Divine Star.

All things in the World require a balance of Yin and Yang, but his pursuit of extreme power was even more fierce and overbearing; both the Divine Sparks of destruction and creation belonged to extreme Yang, abandoning the Yin aspect.

Although Yang represents ultimate prosperity, it is ultimately fleeting, unable to last long.

The Divine Spark of creation within Su Ye's body was different from his; the dragon was Yang, the phoenix was Yin; creation and destruction complemented each other, forming a dynamic and exquisite balance.

Back then, if he had allowed the Phoenix God to exist, if he hadn't been self-righteous, arrogant, and conceited, perhaps the Soul Beast race wouldn't have fallen to its current state today.

Whoosh, the Dragon God's tall body, like grains of sand, began to dissipate in the wind.

For a moment, the entire forest returned to normal, filled with a sense of sorrow.

'Dragon Lord!!'

Di Tian cried out in sorrow towards the sky, but the Dragon God's expression was surprisingly calm, with a tranquility that saw through life and death, peacefully gazing at the sky.

'In the past...'

'To atone for the mistakes I made, I once made an agreement with the gods of the God Realm that Soul Beasts would not be allowed to become gods from then on; this act also restricted you.'

'From today onwards, the Soul Beast race shall revere him and the Silver Dragon King; prosperity, decline, honor, and shame shall all be determined by you.'

'My era has passed; the future belongs to you...'

With a hint of a smile that wasn't quite a smile at the corner of his mouth, the Dragon God's figure completely dissipated between heaven and earth.

This scene caused a sharp pain in the hearts of Di Tian and the Silver Dragon King; in a daze, they seemed to see the scene of the Dragon God's fall from countless years ago.

This was the Dragon God's last remnant thought; even if Gu Yue Na were to unleash the Dragon God Transformation again, she could only summon a Dragon God with her as the primary consciousness.

The Dragon God had truly perished--

Swish!

Su Ye also returned to his normal state, his posture straight and tall like a javelin.

His colorful black fitted suit shimmered with crystal light, noble and profound; his robe rustled in the wind, and beneath his skin, colorful light emanated, with three divine rings behind him radiating dazzling divine brilliance.

Watching the Dragon God dissipate, Su Ye felt inexplicably heavy-hearted for some reason.

He was a supreme powerhouse of his generation, yet now he had also turned into smoke and dissipated.

But too many things were involved, and it was difficult to comment on right and wrong.

However...

He really handed the Soul Beast race over to me?

Su Ye looked puzzled; did the Dragon God know what had happened between him and Gu Yue Na and intend to bind them, making him lead the Soul Beast race back to its peak?

No matter what, he belonged to the human race; how could he stand on the side of the Soul Beasts?

'However...'

'The energy of the Soul Beast race is indeed quite good...'

Su Ye looked at Di Tian and the other fierce beasts with burning eyes.

The prosperity of the Soul Beast race naturally implied the decline of the human race.

Naturally, he couldn't help the Soul Beast race persecute the human race, but the small World within him needed energy to replenish.

Hmm, he could slowly incorporate the Soul Beast race into his small World, using the power of the Soul Beasts to expand it...

Compared to the human race, Soul Beasts are clearly more adaptable; even if there are imperfections, they can be slowly adjusted.

What?

Using the Soul Beast race as lab rats?

In his small World, they could cultivate to become gods; when it grows into a divine realm, he could even bestow divine positions.

Compared to being hunted by humans for soul rings, this outcome was simply a pie falling from the sky for them.

To become gods...

For the Soul Beast race to make sacrifices is naturally reasonable and justified!

'Let's do it!!'

Su Ye stepped into the void, and colorful light burst from his feet, enveloping the entire Star Dou Great Forest.

The power of the Five Elements Origin spurted forth, nourishing the entire forest like spring rain; the pain of the injured Soul Beasts disappeared, and their injuries instantly recovered.

Almost every Soul Beast's cultivation increased to varying degrees, gazing at the colorful light in the void with worship and gratitude.

This scene made Gu Yue Na extremely envious; although she also had similar elemental control, using the Five Elements Origin would damage her own cultivation.

Su Ye, however, was completely unfazed, because the small World within his Primal Chaos Inner Core possessed the power of transformation, able to convert the power of the Five Elements into the Five Elements Origin, an ability Gu Yue Na did not possess.

'The Dragon God has passed away; all Soul Beasts, listen, from today onwards, I shall rule the Soul Beast race!'

Whoosh, a mental fluctuation spread throughout the Star Dou Great Forest; even thousand-year Soul Beasts without developed consciousness could perceive the meaning of the mental fluctuation being released at this moment.

'After this blessing, those who believe in me shall receive protection and enjoy good fortune!'

Su Ye used classic quotes he got from reading novels in his previous life; of course, 'eternal life' couldn't be said, as he wasn't some kind of god who would bless himself and suffer for it.

Bang--

Seeing Su Ye make such a declaration, wanting to dominate the Soul Beast race, Gu Yue Na quickly waved her hand, severing Su Ye's connection with the Soul Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Gu Yue Na angrily rebuked:

'Don't flatter yourself; Father God intended for us to rule together, not for me to listen to you in everything!'

'Don't forget, you are just human; the internal affairs of my Soul Beast race are not for you to decide!'

'Oh? Is that so?' Su Ye's lips curled slightly; he didn't seem angry.

Gu Yue Na frowned in shame and anger, staring back with her purple eyes without fear; it was true that she had lost a step, but that didn't mean she would become subservient to humans; she would rather die than comply.

She was the Silver Dragon King, the legitimate successor of the Soul Beast race; even if Father God shared power with him, he was still human and could never control the destiny of the Soul Beast race like she could.

Seeing what Gu Yue Na was thinking, Su Ye's smile deepened, and his gaze slowly shifted to Di Tian and the other fierce beasts.

'What about you?'

'Between her and me, who do you choose?'

'The thing I dislike most is forcing others; think carefully before you answer.'

Swish--

Di Tian, Biji, and the others exchanged glances, all a bit bewildered, trying to figure out what the others meant.

They naturally didn't have this kind of trouble before.

But the Dragon God had spoken, and the human before them was also a co-ruler of the Soul Beasts; although they didn't understand, how could they comprehend the Dragon God's perspective?

Under Gu Yue Na's death glare, the fierce beasts lowered their heads; for a moment, even Di Tian didn't know what to do.
