Douluo: Unbeatable from Capturing a Goddess

However, to deal with the freakish divine tribulation.

Luo Yu spent almost all of his time frantically cultivating, not daring to slacken for a moment. He hardly ever left the Star Dou Forest.

But since he had arrived in the Douluo plane so early, Luo Yu had definitely prevented some tragedies.

For example, a few years ago, he had ventured out once.

He rescued Empress Bibi Dong from a secret chamber, earning her favor, and directly blasted Qianxun Ji, that bastard, to oblivion.

Another example, a few years ago, he had casually rescued Xiaowu's intelligent and gentle mother from the hands of the Martial Soul Hall.

He still remembers the indebted look in the young widow's eyes to this day.

To be honest, a mature widow is like a fully ripened peach, truly a bit tempting.

But he was a serious person; cultivation was what mattered.

...

"Boom!"

A clap of thunder startled Luo Yu back to reality.

Gu Yuena was pursing her lips, looking at him with worry, "Luo Yu, are you confident?"

"What does it matter if I'm confident or not?"

"Face the soldier, cover the water with earth."

Seeing the man's nonchalant attitude, Gu Yuena bit her moist lips, her fists clenched silently in tension.

Luo Yu took Gu Yuena's small hand, helped her unclench her fingers, and said with a light smile, "Don't be nervous, it's just a minor divine tribulation, I'm confident I can break it."

Gu Yuena shook her head repeatedly, as if recalling something, her eyes filled with murderous intent, "The Divine Realm lacks virtue, they never intended to allow soul beasts to ascend. Your Million Year Beast God Tribulation is probably not going to be easy to overcome!"

Luo Yu smiled indifferently, looking up at the sky.

His body stood tall and straight like an unrivaled Divine Spear, with sparkling divine light flashing through his eyes, his black hair wildly dancing in the wind of the tribulation thunder, "What's new about the Divine Realm? We've known what they're like for a long time. Want to trouble me? Bring it on, I'm not scared."

In that moment, the peerless beauty and the man stood facing each other, black hair and silver hair dancing in the wind, their eyes meeting. Gazing at the imposing figure of the man, Gu Yuena's purple eyes flashed with a strange brilliance.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Thousands of blood-red lightning dragons tumbled in the sky, resembling apocalyptic destruction. The ground was filled with oppressive air, and millions of soul beasts cowered on the ground, trembling.

Luo Yu twisted his body and ascended into the air, shouting, "This tribulation targets me alone, all beasts be at ease, no need for panic!"

His resounding voice vibrated for miles, and in that moment, the panicking million soul beasts inexplicably calmed down.

They all looked up at the sky at the man who seemed tiny compared to the heavenly tribulation but was incredibly mighty in their hearts.

Watching Luo Yu boldly face the divine tribulation, Gu Yuena's gaze intensified as she shouted.

"Luo Yu, how confident are you in surviving the tribulation!"

The man looked at the blood-red lightning dragon tearing the sky apart and said teasingly, "Actually, I'm not that confident..."

Gu Yuena's beautiful face froze.

"It's just a hundred percent," he said.

"You're going to die, and still you have time to joke around!!" Gu Yuena stomp her Silver Lotus anxiously.

Luo Yu put away his playful smile, his expression solemn.

"Just watch, what I'm going to do today is not to endure the tribulation, but..."

"To overthrow this heavens!"

Gu Yuena was stunned, her beautiful eyes first flickering with confusion, but after hearing the man's words, her spirit was shaken.

In that instant, she somewhat understood why she, the ice mountain of ten thousand years, was willing to smile for this man; because he truly had no fear of the Divine Realm.

And she, truly hated how the Divine Realm gave no way out for soul beasts, insisting on setting up the tribulation.

However, looking at the rolling thunderclouds in the sky, a tribulation that could possibly destroy even deities, Gu Yuena felt worried.

Although she admitted the man was very handsome just now, with an arrogance that penetrated to the bones, facing such a tribulation, to be honest, his million years of cultivation might just be as futile as a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

"This bad man, he couldn't be trying to tell me one last joke before he dies because he's afraid I'll be sad, could he?" Gu Yuena's lips began to pale, knowing that surviving the tribulation was a nine-death-and-one-life situation, while overcoming the Annihilating Thundercloud was absolutely impossible.

"No! No matter what, I must save him! Even if it attracts the attention of the Divine Realm, I must save him!" Gu Yuena bit her lip, resolute, her body surrounded by a spectrum of light, frantically gathering energy.

"You jerk! If you're really not confident, don't fake it, you still have me!!!"

It wasn't just Gu Yuena who lacked confidence; faced with such a terrifying heavenly tribulation, all soul beasts showed despair in their eyes. Perhaps success in transcending the tribulation is an unattainable dream for soul beasts; the Divine Realm simply didn't give them a chance.

The mighty Titan Ape scratched at the Azure Oxpython, "Big brother, can the Beast God really flip this thundercloud?"

"Are you stupid? Can't you see how fierce this thundercloud is? It's giving no quarter to the beasts at all?"

The Azure Oxpython slapped its tail on its head and said desolately:

"A beast's strength is barely enough to cling to life, how can it battle the heavens? It seems the Beast God is destined to fail, but that spirit of defiance is something our kind should strive toward."

"Roar!"

Immense golden light radiated across heaven and earth as a thousand-zhang tall divine beast phantom appeared. Its scales and claws were thrown about, and it was enveloped in flames, displaying an earth-shattering might. It didn't wait for the tribulation thunder to strike; instead, it charged at the tribulation clouds with unparalleled ferocity.

"Holy shit, is the Beast God being this fierce??"

"This..."

The Azure Oxpython was stunned; normally, during a tribulation, one would grudgingly endure it, waiting for the thunder to strike and then withstanding it one bolt at a time, right?

But the Beast God just directly charged into it?

At the same moment, Gu Yuena's frantic screams pierced the air.

"Luo Yu, have you lost your mind??"

"What are you trying to do! Burning your soul core, are you willing to discard your million years of cultivation??"

"Boom!"

The thousand-zhang golden phantom of the Beast God had already charged with a destructive aura into the span of the ten-thousand-li tribulation clouds, its presence far more insane than the bloody lightning.

The next instant, the skies brightened!

The tribulation lightning ceased, the sky cleared, and not a cloud was seen for thousands of miles as light returned to Star Dou.

"He flipped it, he actually flipped it; the Beast God did it!!" The Titan Ape's blood was boiling.

"You idiot, shut your damn mouth!!" The Azure Oxpython knocked down the Titan and said in grief and rage: "Can't you see the Beast God burnt his soul core and sacrificed himself in attacking the thundercloud?"

"Ah?"

The Titan paused, his expression frozen, somewhat lost in thought.

"No way, did the Beast God... just disappear like that?"

Gu Yuena floated in the air, ceaselessly searching, a glint of tears flashing past her beautiful eyes as she looked on with a blank expression, stunned by everything unfolding.

Gradually, she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost embedded into her flesh. She looked up at the sky, her thin lips bitten until they seeped crimson blood, and spoke in an icy voice.

"Divine Realm... you slaughtered my people, now you've destroyed my dear friend. I will never share the sky with you!"

After saying this, she looked mournful, filled with resentment: "You damn men, if you can't handle it, just call for help. I would have aided you. To go so far as to erase yourself just to show off, you jerk!!!"

"Who's a jerk?"

"Luo Yu!"

"Hmm? Who's talking!" Gu Yuena instinctively responded, turning her head sharply, she realized that at some point, a twenty-four-petal golden lotus had appeared floating in the void beside her.

The golden lotus, as exquisite as jasper and agate, displayed a transcendental and divine aura.

That's not right!

Gu Yuena's pupils contracted.

Observing more closely, she felt the lotus's mystery and holiness even more, filled with endless life-giving potential, and even the sound of a strong heartbeat inside it – she had never seen such a sight.

What kind of treasure was this? Confusion flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes.

A dissatisfied voice came from inside the Twenty-Fourth Grade Golden Lotus.

"Little Nana, explain to me, what do you mean by 'showing off until you've showed yourself out'!"

"Luo Yu? Are you inside?? What is this thing, and what exactly is going on!"

Gu Yuena unconsciously wiped the corners of her eyes, looking at the lotus with surprise and happiness, her fingers poking at it. Not metal nor iron, but as solid as if fortified, it was made of a material she had never seen before.

"First, take me back to my cave dwelling. Take good care of me there, and later I'll explain everything to you!"

Luo Yu wasn't in the mood to talk right now, as a series of sounds echoed in his mind.
