ATG: My genius is almost frightening!

BAAAANG————

Dozens of kilometers of space violently swelled up with the Dragon Monarch at its center, and it looked like it was about to burst.

The Venerable Withered Dragons, Dragon Gods, and Dragon Sovereigns were all knocked backward by the blast of energy that had erupted from the Dragon Monarch's body. All of them immediately turned to look at him, and they were frozen in place by what they saw.

Long Bai's face had actually turned a ghastly shade of greenish-black, and his lips, nostrils, eyebrows… and every single muscle on his face was violently trembling.

The space around him violently twisted, and if he lost control of that dreadful rage of his, he would cause all of the space around him to collapse.

'I never loved you.'

'Die somewhere far, and quietly.'

"Im... Impossible... Lies! It has to be a lie!" Her voice continued to reverberate in his mind like poisonous needles stabbing at his brain and heart! Even though he knew Shen Xi never loved him, never even saw him as a man, hearing her say it out loud and worse, having another man relay her message, completely shattered his mental fortitude!

Shen Xi!

His Shen Xi... wanted him dead!

Why? Why now? Was it because of this man? What lies had he whispered in her ear? What poison had he dripped into her mind?

No... how had this filth, this wretched devil, even gotten close to her in the first place?

How dare he breathe the same air as her?!

How dare he speak to her?!

This bastard's very existence was a sin! He would rip him apart, limb by limb, and show Shen Xi the truth! That this thing was nothing but a deceitful, writhing maggot!

He would make him choke on agony.

He would shatter his bones, grind his pride into the dirt, and burn every last one of his followers, every dream, and every hope into ash.

And only then, when the man was a broken, whimpering wreck, would he finally let him die!

Boom!

A silver pillar of light shot into the heavens as Yun Wuji activated Invictus. His 12th level Divine Spirit Realm cultivation surged into the 12th level Divine King Realm. His once casual expression turned indifferent. He flicked off the head of the Dragon Emperor and slowly turned to face Long Bai.

"Let's get this over with. Shen Xi's been urging me to come back. Our child is missing her father."

BUZZZZZ————

It was as if a million thunderbolts had detonated inside every mind present at once.

What... the... actual... fuck!???

The Dragon Queen and this man—?

Had the legendary Shen Xi… just crowned the Dragon Monarch with a gleaming green hat?!

Long Bai's face instantly turned a ghastly shade of blackish-green as his eyes widened to the size of saucers!

BOOOM!!!!

Space collapsed around him as his raging draconic energy erupted from his body along with his boundless rage. The Dragon Gods, Dragon Sovereigns, and even the Venerable Withered Dragons were violently knocked away by the backlash from this energy eruption.

Furthermore, Long Bai… the monarch of the Dragon Gods, the commander of the Western Divine Region, had actually attacked!

BANG!!

An earth-shaking explosion rang through the air as his claw smashed heavily against Yun Wuji's body!

Poof!

A long line of fresh blood spurted out like a fountain, but to everyone's shock, it wasn't Yun Wuji's blood. It was Long Bai's.

A large, grotesque bloody claw mark dented his chest as he flew back like a comet, several times faster than he had been charging in.

Moon Star Restoration!

The combo that never failed him. The moment Yun Wuji uttered those provocative words, he activated Moon Star Restoration, because he knew that with Long Bai's obsession, anything related to Shen Xi would set him off. Even if it was the truth, after all, Shen Xi really did say that she and their daughter were waiting for him to come back.

His eyes started to glow blue, but that blue light only lasted for a second before it turned into a silver light that was even brighter than the sun. The shining silver figure of a dragon suddenly appeared in the skies above, its eyes blazing like twin suns. It bared its fangs as it released its boundless dragon might and let out a primordial dragon roar that was filled with boundless fury and wrath.

ROAAARR————

The blue dome of the sky looked like cracked glass. All the God Emperors and Divine Masters, enemies and allies alike, felt their souls crushed by a heavenly hammer. Their bodies shuddered violently as their minds went blank in that instant.

As for the Dragon Monarch, Venerable Withered Dragons, Dragon Gods, and Dragon Sovereigns, the color swiftly drained from their draconic eyes, which became pale white in the blink of an eye. After that, even the pupils of their eyes disappeared, and the only thing left in those eyes was a shock and fear they had never felt in the hundreds of thousands of years they had lived.

The overwhelming draconic might that had erupted from the Dragon Monarch and spread across the vast space was instantly shattered into nothingness. His body, which had been flung like a comet into the sky just moments ago, was now plummeting back to the ground.

The moment he hit the ground, most of the dragon energy that had naturally radiated from his body was already dispersed.

"I and the Dragons of Absolute Beginning will handle the Dragon God Realm. You guys deal with the rest," Yun Wuji said, stepping once again on the Dragon Emperor's head as he sent a sound transmission to everyone. "Remember, no matter what happens, we're going to absolutely win this, so don't push yourselves too far."

"Kill these overgrown worms!" he roared as the Dragon Emperor beneath him shot toward World Dragon City, followed by a small swarm of gigantic dragons.

Yun Wuji's battle strength had always been far beyond his actual realm. He could fight opponents seventeen small realms higher, and with the extra three small realms counted, that put him two great realms above his cultivation.

And with the skill Invictus, which lets him jump a whole great realm, he could fight three realms higher. Right now, with Invictus active, he stood at the 12th level Divine King Realm, but his battle strength matched that of a 9th level Divine Master Realm.

On paper, he had no chance against the 366 Dragons, but that was just on paper, because Yun Wuji still had another broken skill.

Omnipresent Domain!

The moment he activated it, a vast grey-silver domain spread out, covering the area around the Dragons who still hadn't recovered from the Dragon God Soul Domain. Instantly, over two hundred Yun Wujis appeared from different directions.

Each one held the vermilion-red bulky Heaven Smiting Devil Slayer Sword.

BOOOM!

They all appeared above one of the Master Dragons and viciously slashed with their swords! Multiple terrible explosions erupted at the same moment.

Each Master Dragon ranked between the 1st and 7th level Divine Master Realm. Among all the dragons, they were the weakest link, and Yun Wuji always believed breaking a finger was better than injuring the whole hand.

So he decided to start with the weakest and eliminate them before they could cause any trouble.

"Uwaaaa!"

"Aghhh!"

"ROAAR!"

Blood and scales exploding outward, chunks of flesh spiraling through the sky, followed by countless cries and roars of agony. Over fifty Master Dragons between the 1st and 4th level Divine Master Realm perished under Yun Wuji's attacks, while the rest suffered various degrees of injury.

The Omnipresent Domain allows Yun Wuji to be in multiple places at the same time, meaning he could fight a large number of enemies on his own and never fear being outnumbered. At the same time, his movement inside his Domain is incredibly fast, almost impossible to catch, because he could always switch his position somewhere else.

The only thing that made Yun Wuji feel some pity was that, because of the strong God Realm laws of space, his cultivation allowed him to appear effectively in only 200 different locations at once. Trying to increase that number would make energy consumption rise exponentially

If he tried to appear in 210 different locations, for example, his energy consumption would increase by more than five times, which wasn't worth it. The limit of 200 was the best balance between energy use and recovery, especially since he had the Nine Profound Exquisite World supplying him with enough energy.

As he was killing the Master Dragons, the Dragons of Absolute Beginning were not idle either. Using the moment when the Dragon Gods were still stunned from the Dragon Soul Domain, they rushed in to tear them apart.

The Dragon Emperor charged at Long Yi, the strongest of the Five Withered Dragons, while the five Dragon Kings charged at the other four Withered Dragons and the Crimson Destruction Dragon God.

The rest of the Dragons either went after the Dragon Gods or the Dragon Sovereigns.
