Listen While Reading: RETURN OF THE DRAGON -----

  “By the harmony of Yin and Yang, I unify you two to create perfect bance... And then I shatter you to gee endless chaos.”

  Suddenly, as the swords reached Bing Xue, she jured a strange magic the gods had never seen before. Two spheres of pure densed Primordial Venerable Yin and Yang Ki biogether as they rotated against one another.

  The skies above turned white, and the ground below turned bck. The two membranes of darkness and light touched before shaking and shattering.

  The spheres came together as if they were mere droplets of water, only to bine and swirl, beginning to rapidly distort spad time.

  “This is a eique I’ve made; want to give it a taste?”

  Bing Xue wi the green-skinned demon, who realized too te that his attacks were doing absolutely no damage to her.

  “{Bance Disruption Art}: {Hollow Chaos}”

  “W-Wha…?!”

  Darkness and light engulfed the god pletely; his entire being was immediately ed by a massive amount of destructive energy.

  He could not fight bad only saw as he disappeared, body and soul.

  BOOOMMM!!!

  The skies trembled and were split open pletely. Several Divine Domains the Gods had jured beforehand all came undone, shattering and causing backshes into their bodies.

  Space itself tore apart, fracturing and falling down like pieces of gss oached to the empty air that was the structure of space.

  By bining Yin and Yang together and then disrupting them, Bing Xue suddenly found a whole new realm of possibilities.

  And she called this...

  Bance Disruption Arts.

  The power to wield the destructive feed from disrupting baween two harmonious trations of Yin and Yang.

  “T-This is…! Just how strong is she?!”

  “T-The Emerald Fire God… he’s gone?!”

  “Not even a single ash is left!”

  “T-This is…”

  The gods started to hesitate, yet they khat if they hesitated, Bing Xue would e after them and kill them too. They knew very well they would be killed; they were all greedy mohat had bee the mortals of their world. They didn’t feel guilty, but they khat someone as righteous as her would despise them.

  There were iations that could be made against a figure of pure righteousness like Bing Xue! Any od would have happily iated things, but...

  Bing Xue was different; she would simply aim for their lives after knowing they had killed just a few hundred mortals to get more power.

  In their minds, she was a pletely unreasonable and chaotic being they couldn’t prehend!

  After all, who would get upset about the deaths of those they didn’t know or cared about before knowing about them retly?

  Only a lunatic!

  Or so they believed.

  “Attack her together!”

  The Barbarian God roared, his Aura of Power enpassing all the Gods as fiery wrath rushed from their bodies and souls. The gods rushed down at the same time as he did, and this time he finally chose to joitle.

  “All at once, huh?”

  Bing Xue quickly gathered Time Esseo her hands, activating one of her Skills as dozens of deadly divieiques rained upon her from all angles, and even the giant ons of the Barbarian God came down towards her.

  RUMBLE!

  As all blows reached her, suddenly, time itself and its flow shook drastically, as Bing Xue puime itself and made it twist around, making her skip through it entirely.

  BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

  “Where is she?!”

  “She disappeared?”

  “No, wait!”

  The Gods were shocked to find that Bing Xue had somehow pletely disappeared, only to find out she appeared again within the same space as before, but after all their attacks, they reached that area and exploded.

  “{Aeternitas Martial Arts}: {Primordial Diviinel of the Bright Future}”

  An immense amount of Time Essend Yang Essence overflowed from her body as she jured one of the abilities of her sed EX-Ranked Skill.

  The power to skip a sed into the future, allowio pletely mitigate all damage dealt to her within that time frame, and skipping into a sed after.

  But it wasn’t just that either!

  Crack, crack…!

  BOOOM!

  A gigantic explosion, a shockwave within time and space, was unleashed at the same time as she skipped through time. The absence of her existehin that time frame caused an immense void between time and space, geing a huge explosion of accumuted void energy.

  The explosion was immense, sending most of the gods flying away. Only the Barbarian God mao resist the gigantic explosion, gritting his teeth as he resisted it with his powerful body.

  “Just what was that?! What did she do?!” he muttered, gritting his teeth furiously.

  “Dammit! {Divi Spirit on Maion}!”

  “ROOOAARR!”

  Suddenly, the multiple roars of Divi Spirits he had turned into his ons echoed as the giant Barbarian God was suddenly covered by a huge armor posed of their souls and spiritual powers, further strengthened by his own divinity.

  “You’re finally going to fight, you pathetic bastard?”

  Bing Xue asked as the Barbarian god moved at lightning speed, almost as if he had skipped space itself, appearing above her and swinging his ons at once.

  “{Divine Spirit Beast Rampage}!”

  “ROOARR!”

  “SHAAAH!

  “GRUOOH!”

  Bing Xue was immediately attacked by a dozen blows rushing down at her at once, imbued not only with the power of these divine spirit beasts turned into ons but also with the entire weight of the world of Elios, further enhang the strength of the Barbarian God.

  CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

  Each of his blows came apanied by the phantasmal illusion of one of these beasts he killed and transformed into ons emerging and attag Bing Xue with their cws, elemental breath, magiighty jaws.

  It was overwhelming! There were no openings, and Bing Xue seemed to be pletely blocked from fighting back, forced to take on all the damage and, at most, pointlessly defend.

  “Hahaha! Fool! I caught you off-guard!” ughed the Barbarian God. “Now, attack her while I have her locked here!”

  Space itself seemed to grow heavier as Bing Xue was taking on his attacks; her clothes were slowly shaking, slightly torn apart, and her eyes squihe Barbarian God erhaps the stro being she had faced sining back from Murim, and she could easily gauge this by the amount of power he held!

  “I was able to slice his arms before; was that because he had lowered his guard?” she wondered. “He’s a young god; he’s very na?ve.”

  “You’re within rasp now! {Divine Cursed Forest Domain}: {All-ing Rotten Wood Prison}!”

  An old goblin-like man wearing bck clothes and a magi hat with a long beard jured and unleashed a giant domain filled with bck, cursed wood that could absorb all life they touched.

  “Take this, you unfunny bitch! {Divine ival Domain}: {Colorful Firework Catastrophe}!”

  A -shaped puppet of metal and wood ughed. Wearing a -like mask and a red wig, the bizarre god jured a domain that created the illusion of a beautiful circus, where thousands of fireworks desded to annihite his foe.

  “DON’T LOOK DOWN ON US GODS EVER AGAIN. {Divine Meical Domain}: {Star Eater}!”

  A huge bd purple-colored robot, much rger, more modern-looking, and also imbued with dark and abyssal energies, unleashed a domain where everything turned into deep spad where a huge meical star gathered dark photon energies, firing a massive on.

  Yet Bing Xue, against all of these attacks...

  Smiled.

  TRUUUM!

  Suddenly, spad time began to distort rapidly again. The Barbarian God noticed this due to an artifact he held around his neck, a gift from a Higher God, yet it was too te.

  The fact that he noticed this teique at all did not matter!

  FLUOSH!

  Time itself reverted back to two seds; it was as if a movie was going in reverse. His eyes widened as he saw Bing Xue moving within the reversing time.

  “T-This is…!”

  “{Aeternitas Martial Arts}: {Primordial Diviinel of the Dark Past}”

  Ohe two seds went back, all the domains, attacks, and everything had yet to begin, and Bing Xue’s fists had already pierced the ’s chest, making him explode through Divine Photon Iion.

  “W-What’s happening- AAAGGGHHH!”

  BOOOM!

  The ods that couldn’t notice what happened gasped, suddenly seeing as if Bing Xue had disappeared and reappeared; this wasn’t even her super-fast movements or any teleportation; they would have been able to somewhat stop her from doing sh their domains that were anchored into space after all.

  But this was different!

  “The dark past unravels itself; yet another of your allies is dead; the future you envisioned is gone,” she said. “Now tell me, corrupt gods. Have you ever felt fear before?”

  Her hands waved, Yin and Yang energies bining together.

  Everyone knew what she was doing.

  The Cursed Forest and the Bck Mae God quickly attempted to stop her.

  Yet, it was simply too te.

  It was always too te with her!

  “{Bance Disruption Art}: {Hollow Chaos}”

  A tiny sphere of purple and bck light was released, and the divine domains immediately shattered into pieces before its very presence.

  And then, the sphere was divided into ten more.

  “{Bance Disruption Arts Echo}: {Fragmented Chaos}”

  An Echo! The ability to modify an already-jured spell or teique and ge it midway through its attag pattern.

  It was like a rain of purple and bck light.

  Yet when it touched one of the gods, the Cursed Forest God.

  FLASH!

  “Ungh?! UUAAAGGGH!”

  BOOOM!

  He was pletely ed, vaporizing pletely, and leaving no body or soul behind at all. The mae god attempted to escape the rain mented chaos.

  But it couldn’t; one sphere was right in front of him as he moved away.

  FLASH!

  “ERROR… ERRO- BBRRRHHHHH!”

  BOOOM!

  Vaporized agaial, circuits, everything ihing of that mattered at all; it was pletely erased from existence.

  “R-Run…! RUUUN!”

  The ods suddenly started esg, leaving the Barbarian God alone as he screamed at them, however, he saw the fragmented chaos catch half of the ones esg.

  “e on, are you not even givihe fight I wanted?”

  And Bing Xue appeared above him as the Barbarian God saw several mods perishing, oer another; chaos ed them entirely.

  BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

  Until no God was left… except him!

  “T-This is ridiculous…! Y-You killed them all?! And their souls… even their souls…! D-Does that mean?!”

  “Yes, it means what you think it means.”

  Bing Xue's smile became slightly wicked, and as her eyes turned deep red, her entire body began to transform in that moment, being a huge, demoy.

  A Demon Queen.

  “They’re dead.”

  As she spoke, the heaven above her rumbled, being bd red, awo hands formed giant bdes made of Yin and Yang disrupting each eing deadly Chaos.

  Her Draification also mixed with her appearance, giving her a draid demonic appearance, something Bing Xue would have tained before.

  “Y-YOUUUU!”

  With a furious roar, the Barbarian God lost all his mind, and the entire world trembled as Bing Xue noticed hundreds of rivers of World Energy rushing into his body, making him rger and rger and rger within a split sed!

  RUMBLE!

  “He’s draining the energy of the world itself to bee stronger!" Bing Xue thought, gring down as she noticed all nature and pnts beginning to die, the beautiful endless grassnds being a dead wastend.

  Crack, crack…!

  CRACK!

  RUMBLE!

  The entire world was shaking; giant cracks began to spread everywhere; and enormous quantities of va from the bzing core of the parted erupting everywhere.

  The Barbarian God nning to absorb the p's energy and use it to destroy her and everything else.

  “IF I HAVE TO DESTROY THE ENTIRE WORLD, I WILL! AS LONG AS I KILL YOUUUUU!”

  His form became rger, reag over two kilometers i, looking like an eower of a man, pierg the skies and the heavens themselves.

  “E! MY ARMY OF DESTRU AND BLOODSHED!

  His entire body, bzing with the va of the entire p rushing into it, started to rapidly shapeshift, giving birth to thousands of aberrant, titanic divine monsters.

  “KILL HER!”

  Bing Xue rushed against the beasts, sshing them apart oer another as explosions of chaos erupted across the skies.

  “Seth was right! The moment he was ered, he would do this suicidal teique and bring down the world with him!” Bing Xue thought, grittieeth as she was quickly swarmed by thousands of titanic Divine Bloodshed Monsters. “It seems their help will be the end…”

  As Bing Xue cshed against the monstrosity the enraged Barbarian God had bee, and Mursha and the rest fought against the God’s Cult, Seth, Umbra, arel rushed across the skies, seeing as the world was beginning to e to an end.

  “There it is! Quickly! We have to get inside!”

  Seth pointed down at a huge crater in the middle of the wastends, where there was a huge aemple covered by vegetation.

  RUMBLE!

  Yet the tless cracks across the p’s surface threateo destroy that enormous temple and what he sought inside of it.

  “Hurry, we don’t have time!” Seth said. “I have the key to uhem, but just break the damn ceiling with your divine powers; I think that’s possible!”

  These ruins were made by the Barbarian God himself to seal something or someone.

  Although a mortal alone could never break it down, it was pletely different fod, or two!

  “Got it!”

  “Let’s do it then!”

  Umbra arel transformed bato their divine forms, quickly unleashing their divine powers at once, resembling a desding bd golden star.

  This owerful teique they had created retly, as they traiheir new abilities and the application of their weakened divinities inside of Bing Xue’s Inner Realm.

  “If you are weaker than before, then how about bining your powers as one?”

  Although they thought of that proposal as ridiculous back then, they hought they would be doing it now.

  FLASH!

  “{Dual Divinity Arts}: {Twin Star of Light and Darkness}!”

  Crack, crack, CRACK!

  BOOOM!

  The ceiling shattered and quickly broke open, but it began to rapidly regee agaih quickly jumped inside while carrying the two gods and the veil made out of Bing Xue’s doppelganger.

  “Here we are…”

  And they found themselves deep inside a dark hall covered with dust and moss, and decorated with five giant statues resembling huge beasts and r creatures, further ed around by glowing s of divinity.

  “T-This is…?!” Estrel muttered.

  “They’re the inal gods of Elios!” Umbra said.

  “Yeah…” Seth nodded. “The Five Great Divi Spirits. The Barbarian God could not kill them because the elements of the world are ected to their lives; if they had died, the world would have ended, but he sealed them. And now it’s time to uhem, ond for all.”

  Seth held a rainbow-colored key, which shone brightly.

  Where could he have obtained such a precious item?

  “It’s time for me to fulfill my promise… Mia,” Seth said, with a slightly sorrowful expression. “I will save the world you loved so much… So you’ll have a home to return to.”

  [You have used the [Divine Great Spirit Unsealing Key Perfect Replica (SSS+++ Grade)]!]

  [The seal pced over the {Five Great Elemental Spiritual Pilrs of Elios} is beginning to rapidly fade away!]

  [However, because you’re only using a Replica of the Key, their Power ot be pletely unsealed.]

  FLAAASH!
