Douluo Dalu 2: The True God King - [DD2]: 46
If there had been more, Su Yu wouldn’t have been able to bear it. The gap between a God-King and a Soul Elder was unimaginably vast.
Su Yu reached into the tub. At this point, under the influence of the Golden Dragon King’s blood, the water had turned completely golden.
As Su Yu put his hand in, he felt a scalding sensation.
Within the water was an unbelievably violent power. The wildness contained in the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear’s soul bone was nothing compared to this.
This power wasn’t just wild—it was ferocious, destructive, and overwhelmingly domineering.
The moment the energy spread from his hand, both Skydream Iceworm and Electrolux, who were dormant within his mental sea, were immediately awakened.
“What is this thing?”
Skydream Iceworm’s voice was filled with unprecedented panic.
The noble, domineering, and violently wild aura made Skydream Iceworm feel fear deep within its soul.
It had never encountered such terrifying energy before.
“Just a little bit of blood,” Su Yu said casually as he withdrew his hand.
“A little bit of blood?”
Skydream was stunned for a moment, then shouted, “Whose blood is this? It’s terrifying!”
Compared to this ferocity, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the Snow Empress, and even Di Tian seemed insignificant.
Although the ferocity was faint, it was terrifying, especially to a soul beast.
Skydream felt that even the great ruler it had once seen under the Lake of Life didn’t have as terrifying an aura as this little bit of blood.
That great ruler was powerful and had a commanding presence, but it gave off a sense of life.
This, however, was pure destructive force.
“This must be the blood of some divine beast, one with a destruction attribute.”
A gray light flickered, and Electrolux’s illusory figure emerged.
Since entering Su Yu’s mental sea, this was the first time he had spoken on his own.
“Hey, old man, who are you anyway? Daring to compete with me for territory?”
Skydream bared its teeth as it saw Electrolux, who had been silent until now, suddenly speak.
“With a grasp of the sun and moon and the stars in hand, there is no one like me in all the world. People once called me the Undead Holy God, Electrolux, the Scourge of the Undead.”
“Undead Holy God? Old man, are you kidding? Are you a god?”
Skydream asked, skeptical.
“If I had wanted to, I could have long since become the Grim Reaper.”
Electrolux replied calmly.
“I don’t believe it!”
“You may believe it,” Su Yu’s voice cut in.
“If this senior were in his prime, he would indeed not be weaker than a god.”
“Can’t you sense it? His soul essence is divine consciousness, something only gods possess.”
“Divine consciousness?”
Skydream was stunned. Unable to use its origin currently, its perception was much weaker.
However, it seemed that Electrolux’s soul quality was indeed superior to its own.
Boohoo, how pitiful.
It had thought it could finally bully someone, but who was the real clown here?
“You are truly insightful, far beyond ordinary people.”
Electrolux marveled as he looked at the nine-colored light that enveloped Su Yu’s entire mental sea.
The level of this nine-colored light was so high that even at his peak, he couldn’t compare to it.
“Senior, you’re too kind,” Su Yu replied as he poured bags of medicinal powder into the tub.
This was to neutralize some of the wildness in the blood.
“What kind of divine beast’s blood is this? Its pressure is beyond imagination,” Electrolux asked.
Skydream also perked up its ears, curious.
“This is the blood of the Golden Dragon King,” Su Yu replied without hesitation, continuing to pour in the medicinal powder.
“Golden Dragon King? I’ve never heard of it, but it must be a terrifying divine beast,” Electrolux marveled.
“But, young friend, this blood is extremely violent, so be careful.”
After his initial amazement, Electrolux reminded Su Yu.
“Thank you for your concern. I already have a plan,” Su Yu replied, finishing up with the medicinal powder.
After adding the powder, the intensity of the blood’s power was slightly neutralized, though it remained wild.
Su Yu didn’t mind. He removed his clothes and stepped into the tub, sitting down.
The golden liquid rose to his chest, and his entire body was bombarded by intense energy.
The unimaginable ferocity of the destructive aura rushed recklessly into Su Yu’s body.
Even with his strong physique, Su Yu’s skin instantly turned red.
In the tub, the golden liquid boiled, and strands of the Golden Dragon King’s blood energy surged into Su Yu’s limbs and bones.
Within it was the will of the Golden Dragon King—arrogant, wild, and unstoppable—rushing into Su Yu’s mind.
A flood of thoughts, bent on destroying everything, assaulted Su Yu’s mental sea, attempting to bend his will.
If Su Yu lost control, he would likely become a mindless, destructive monster.
As the blood energy continued to flow in, golden scales even began to appear on Su Yu’s body. The immense power of the blood was attempting to rewrite Su Yu’s bloodline.
This was the dominance of dragon bloodlines. No matter what creature you were, contact with dragon blood would force you to change.
From his mind to his body, Su Yu was under tremendous pressure.
But Su Yu remained calm. At the center of his forehead, a nine-colored light suddenly erupted.
The power of the Dragon God surged through his body, subduing all the blood energy under its might.
The golden scales on his body began to fade, and the invasive state caused by the blood was instantly alleviated.
In his mind, under Su Yu’s control, the power of the Dragon God enveloped the wild thoughts.
Although the Golden Dragon King’s residual will was terrifying, it was no match for the power of the Dragon God.
No matter how strong the Golden Dragon King was, it was only half of the Dragon God and couldn’t compare to the real Dragon God’s power.
Moreover, this was just a trace of residual will.
As the Golden Dragon King’s wild thoughts were suppressed, Su Yu gradually stabilized.
…
At the bottom of the Lake of Life, Gu Yuena, who had been in a daze, suddenly awoke. Her purple eyes brightened, radiating mysterious nobility.
“This… this is the Golden Dragon King’s aura?”
Gu Yuena sensed the aura coming from her reverse scale, and her expression instantly became serious.
“But isn’t the Golden Dragon King sealed in the Divine Realm? How could he have encountered the Golden Dragon King?”
“Could the Golden Dragon King harm him?”
A hint of urgency flashed in Gu Yuena’s eyes. With the Golden Dragon King’s mindset, if he encountered him, he would likely devour him without hesitation.
The Golden Dragon King wouldn’t think twice.
“No, wait. This aura is too weak to be the Golden Dragon King himself. Could it be from the blood or scales the Golden Dragon King left behind?”
Gu Yuena carefully sensed it and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The aura was indeed the Golden Dragon King’s, but it was like a rootless source, far too weak.
It didn’t seem like the real body, more like a remnant part of him.
“If that’s the case, then perhaps this isn’t a disaster, but rather an opportunity,” Gu Yuena murmured.
Even though some of the Golden Dragon King’s power remained, no matter how domineering, it couldn’t harm Su Yu, who possessed the power of the Dragon God.
Although Su Yu’s Dragon God power was still in its initial stages, it was, after all, the power of the Dragon God—holding absolute dominance over both her and the Golden Dragon King.
“Still, even though that may be true, it’s better to check and be sure.”
With this thought in mind, Gu Yuena used the location of her reverse scale to send a spiritual projection.
In the bathroom, accompanied by a tremor in space, an ethereal figure suddenly appeared.
Seeing Su Yu in front of her, she let out a sigh of relief.
In the wooden tub, the golden liquid rippled, emitting a familiar aura.
“So, it is the blood of the Golden Dragon King? Where did this guy get it?” Gu Yuena furrowed her delicate brows, puzzled.
The Golden Dragon King had been sealed in the Divine Realm for a long time. How could its blood remain on the Douluo Continent? Could it have fallen here during the battle in the past and somehow been preserved until now?
Gu Yuena pondered, her beautiful eyes flickering with uncertainty.
“This guy is truly mysterious.”
Gu Yuena glanced at Su Yu, and upon closer inspection, she could even see Skydream and Electrolux, who were hiding within Su Yu’s spiritual sea.
“A foreign divine consciousness… its quality is high, no less than that of a first-level god, but it’s only a wisp of a remnant soul.”
Gu Yuena’s eyes flickered as she calculated whether this divine consciousness posed a threat to Su Yu.
If it did, she wouldn’t hesitate to erase it right now.
Regardless of whose divine consciousness it was, it had to be from a human god. And she had no fondness for human gods.
She even feared that Su Yu might be led astray by these human gods. Thinking of this, a trace of cold light flashed in her eyes.
In Su Yu’s spiritual sea, the Skydream Iceworm had already curled up into a ball, trembling in fear.
Electrolux also looked solemnly at Gu Yuena’s spiritual energy, as if he had encountered an unprecedented foe.
He recognized it—this was a true god.
And one whose spiritual power was incredibly high, perhaps one of the strongest even among gods.
As Electrolux pondered, he prepared to reveal himself.
He didn’t know whether this newcomer was friend or foe, but at this moment, he had no choice but to show up.
They were all parasites in Su Yu’s spiritual sea. If something happened to Su Yu, none of them would be able to escape.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
The Skydream Iceworm looked at Electrolux’s shadow and asked.
“I’m going out to meet her,” Electrolux replied calmly.
The Skydream Iceworm broke into a cold sweat.
“Old man, are you looking to die? Do you know how strong she is? And you’re just going to go out and meet her?”
“In my life, I’ve never feared anyone. Even if a true god descended, I would still dare to face them,” Electrolux said calmly.
“Yeah, yeah, you’re amazing, you’re the Grim Reaper. But let the boss handle this. She’s not even an enemy.”
The Skydream Iceworm pouted.
Hmm?
Not an enemy?
Electrolux paused, then withdrew.
If she wasn’t an enemy, then there was no issue.
He knew his situation. He was just a wisp of a remnant soul, and if he went out, he definitely wouldn’t win.
He had simply thought she was an enemy and had no other choice.
But since she wasn’t, this wasn’t his battle to fight.
He decided to let Su Yu handle it!
With that thought, he quickly contacted Su Yu.
Su Yu, fully focused on absorbing the power of the Golden Dragon King’s blood, hadn’t noticed what was happening outside.
But when Electrolux reached out to him, Su Yu directed part of his attention to the situation.
Opening his eyes, Su Yu immediately saw Gu Yuena’s ethereal figure.
“Nana, why are you here?”
Su Yu asked, his eyes showing a hint of pleasant surprise.
“To see if you’re dead yet.”
Gu Yuena replied coldly, her gaze complicated as she looked at Su Yu.
There was a trace of annoyance in her eyes, but also a hint of gentleness and concern—mixed with resentment, longing, and a subtle, unspoken emotion.
Ever since that kiss, Su Yu had become different from other people in her heart.
“Heh, I knew you were worried about me. I’m happy.”
Su Yu chuckled with a bright smile.
If she wasn’t worried about him, why would Gu Yuena have come all this way in spirit form?
After all, Gu Yuena was a key target being hunted by the Divine Realm. By appearing, she risked exposing herself to the gods.
But even so, she still showed up.
There was no need to think too hard about what that meant.
Moreover, Su Yu was secretly relieved. If the Golden Dragon King hadn’t acted up just now, and if Tang San hadn’t gone to deal with it, Gu Yuena might have been exposed.
“Worried about you? What nonsense.”
Gu Yuena glared at Su Yu coldly.
“If you dare come back, just wait and see how I’ll deal with you.”
Su Yu continued to smile brightly.
“That only makes me want to come back more. How else will I get to see you?”
“As for punishing me, feel free. After all, you’re my future wife, and it’s only fair for you to manage me.”
Gu Yuena snorted.
“Don’t think you can fool me so easily! I’m not that easy to coax!”
“How do you know if I’m fooling you? Have you tried it before?”
“Oh right, you have tried it.”
Su Yu glanced at Gu Yuena’s red lips, a mischievous smile on his face.
Gu Yuena’s cheeks flushed as she slapped Su Yu on the forehead, leaving a red mark.
“Ouch!”
Su Yu cried out in pain.
Wang Dong, who had been daydreaming in the bedroom, was startled and quickly asked, “Su Yu, what happened?”
“Nothing, I bumped into the wall. It hurts.”
Su Yu replied.
“Oh, the bathroom is small. Be careful.”
Hearing it was nothing serious, Wang Dong relaxed but still reminded him.
“Got it.”
Su Yu’s voice came back.
Gu Yuena frowned, her gaze piercing through the wall to see Wang Dong in the dorm room.
With her sharp eyes, nothing about Wang Dong escaped Gu Yuena’s notice.
“Why is there a girl here? Who is she?”
Gu Yuena’s eyebrows raised, and her purple eyes fixed on Su Yu with an intimidating look.
“Are you jealous?”
Su Yu wasn’t scared at all and teased Gu Yuena instead.
Gu Yuena slapped him on the forehead again, causing another bump to swell.
This time, Su Yu didn’t cry out, but he did hiss in pain.
“Nana, that was too harsh. It hurts.”
Su Yu looked at Gu Yuena with a pitiful expression.
“Stop messing around. I’m not here to play.”
Gu Yuena’s face turned serious, and her eyes grew stern.
“Who exactly is this girl?”
“She has a god-king level divine seal on her. Are you aware of that?”
