Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

— Chapter 332 —

Yunlong rushed toward the Earth Dragon King and brought out his blood energy in the shape of a gray-colored swirl. Taotie felt a weird sensation spreading in the air and opened her mouth.

“Earth Dragon’s Shield.” A towering shield made of earth appeared before Yunlong, hindering him from getting closer to the Earth Dragon King.

“You should make it tougher.” He smirked because the shield didn’t really matter to him and skillfully waved the Dragon Cleaver.

A piercing light passed through the towering defense, leaving Earth Dragon King dumbfounded. She huffed and devoured the piercing ray with her mouth, chewing quickly and shooting it back at Yunlong.

Yunlong parried the reflected attack away and kicked Taotie’s shoulder, sending her flying a few meters away. To his surprise, the ground suddenly sucked him like quicksand. He caught a cheeky smile on Taotie’s face as his energy rushed out like a broken faucet.

“Wood style: Deep Forest Emergence.”

Taotie abruptly felt the earth element fight back against her will and yelled, “That’s not fair!”

BOOM!

A literal sea of the forest erupted from the ground and covered everything within a one-kilometer radius. Taotie was swept over by the wave of forest creation, trying her best to destroy every wood coming to her.

Mountain Dragon King watched this scene with a wordless look on her face. ‘There was someone with more natural energy than the Goddess of Life in this world??’ She solemnly thought while stomping the ground, stopping the tree from being rooted here.

Yunlong didn’t stop and added draconic blood into the Wood Styles, making it the nemesis of Dragons. Taotie roared in annoyance because these annoying trees weakened her strength for some reason.

“Hmm?” Yunlong instinctively looked up and saw the Light Dragon King descending from the sky. He pointed the Dragon Cleaver at her and launched an energy slash with a darkness attribute.

The atmosphere seemed to be distorted by Yunlong’s attack for a moment. The dark slash was influenced by his darkness law and Infinite Sword Ways, making it travel at the speed of light.

The Light Dragon King released intense light from her body and descended like a bright meteor. “Dragon’s Falls, shooting star rupture.” She concentrated the energy above her head.

BOOM!

She clashed with Yunlong’s attack and weirdly was bounced back because their forces canceled each other. She groaned and frowned inside because this man somehow perfectly estimated her power.

Clank!

Yunlong rotated his whole body and swung the Dragon Cleaver to the left, welcoming a sharp dragon claw. Darkness Dragon King’s eyes widened because her presence should have vanished from this man’s radar.

The Dragon Cleavered was covered thoroughly with Light Law and countered her pretty poorly. In this situation, She could only open her mouth and launch a fiery breath.

BOOM!

Yunlong swiftly dodged to the left and grazed the wood under his feet, causing them to move according to his will. “Wood Prison.” He whispered while staring at the Darkness Dragon King’s eyes.

“You-!” Darkness Dragon King’s blood screamed and warned her to dodge, but it was too late because a series of woods started to wrap around her limbs.

Yunlong waved his hand casually and said, “See you later.”

An enormous shadow appeared in the sky, and Darkness Dragon King watched it with disbelief. Dragon Cleaver’s projection appeared and fell to her.

“Haa… He’s out of my league.” A defeated laugh escaped the Darkness Dragon King’s mouth.

BOOM!

“Sister!” Taotie yelled, running toward the Darkness Dragon King.

Yunlong stopped Taotie and smacked his palm decisively on her stomach. A blood mark spread over the Earth Dragon King’s skin and sealed her strength even more.

“H-How?!”

“Bloodline Suppression.” He casually replied while flicking her forehead. After fighting the Ten Dragon Kings for several hours, it’s not hard for Yunlong to figure out a combination with his draconic lineage.

Yunlong linked the innate draconic bloodline power with his swordplay, ninjutsu, and sealing techniques. And he hasn’t felt any backlash, meaning his attack enhanced even further.

He stretched his neck slightly and commented, “I’m starting to get comfortable with this. Draconic strength is more versatile than I thought. It’s close to Divine Energy but more wild and robust in quality.”

SWOOSH!

“You let your guard down.” Space Dragon King’s claw pierced through Yunlong’s chest.

“Am I?” A smirk plastered Yunlong’s face.

Poofs!

Yunlong exploded into a cloud of white smoke and left the Space Dragon King’s mouth hanging down slightly. He also has Space Law and is quite a master in that field, so sensing her presence is “easier.” than Darkness Dragon King.

Darkness Dragon King hides in the darkness, which makes Yunlong have to force her to get out by herself. Meanwhile, Space Dragon King is like a blinking radar inside his spatial senses.

It also applies to Time Dragon King because her ability is easy to point out by someone with high mastery over Time Law. And fortunately, Yunlong was one of them.

“Another one.” He sealed the Space Dragon King with bloodline suppression.

“Chaotic Storm Dragon Roars!”

Yunlong frowned and slowly turned around, seeing a wide-ranged storm moving toward him. He could see three Dragon Kings combining their strengths and creating this attack. It’s impressive, considering Fire Dragon King and Water Dragon King have repulsing elements. The Wind Dragon King created the storm as the base, making it easier for her sister to combine their energies.

[Infinite Sword Ways]

Yunlong saw multiple paths before him and noticed a few sword paths “simply.” was countered by their combined attacks. He couldn’t help but feel excited inside because they were able to create a gap in his ability.

He breathed in and quickly channeled his Sword Soul into his weapon. The Dragon Cleaver released an intense sword intent, having enough force to cut down the dimension on the blade.

“Imperial Rupture.” The saber moved gently, separating the dimension.

Dragon God’s whole body trembled, and he immediately created a barrier around the Astral Realm because Yunlong’s attack could destroy the Dragon Clan’s Graveyard. He sighed and wondered if this man was a Universal law too.

“Our attack failed?” The Water Dragon King stared at the saber in Yunlong’s hand. “That attack, dodge!”

Fire Dragon King and Wind Dragon King hurriedly flapped their wings, witnessing a void appear and devouring their storm-like attack.

Wind Dragon King chuckled and said, “Oh, wow. Even our strongest attack is useless against him.”

“Don’t laugh… It’s not funny, Feng’er.” Fire Dragon King solemnly growled.

“Pretty funny for me~.”

Yunlong moved his gaze to the last three Dragon Kings and closed his eyes. Seven-colored Dragon King frowned and gathered her elemental strengths again.

Mountain Dragon King and Time Dragon King supported their sister by creating a fortified barrier. An enormous dome covered three of them, giving them time to prepare for the next move.

“True Dragon King’s Pillar.”

The Seven-colored Dragon King clasped her claws against each other and slowly pulled out a beautiful-looking pillar made of seven elements.

“Success.” She whispered while looking at her sister. “This is my last attempt before all my energy completely was exhausted, so I need your gravity and time laws to pressure this pillar.”

“I’m not confident to stop him, even with all our strengths combined. However, we can scratch him with this.” After all, Their strengths aren’t like when they are alive.

Mountain Dragon King and Time Dragon King nodded solemnly, pressuring the True Dragon King’s Pillar with their respective element. The pillar emitted faint nine-colored glows.

“They are my daughters, after all.” Dragon God said while shaking his head.

Even though she couldn’t inherit the Creation and Destruction laws, the Seven-colored Dragon King made simple changes using Gravitation and Time. It’s nowhere close to Dragon God’s attack, but still worthy and powerful enough to kill First Class God.

“Chromatic Rising Pillar.”

A nine-colored pillar pierced through the dome and approached Yunlong like a flash. He could have dodged this using Spatial Movement, but his pride won’t allow it. They tried their best to launch this pillar, which means he had to respond to it the same way.

[Infinite Sword Ways X Harmony Flow]

A crimson spirit ring exploded with brilliance behind Yunlong’s back. Yunlong aligned the Dragon Cleaver against the incoming nine-colored pillar.

“Eight Gate: Minus Flow.” He whispered while feeling his entire body burning. “Nine Extreme Arts of Eclipse Dragon, Devil Sin’s Trigger.”

“Imperial Rupture.” Yunlong’s body instantly was covered with faint blue light.

…

…

Nine-colored pillar made contact with Dragon Cleaver, creating an awkward silence in the Astral Realm. Dragon God witnessed unimaginable keenness coming from Yunlong’s body.

“A slash that cuts the universe apart…” He whispered silently. n

“Even the Asura God looks like a joke compared to him.”

Cracks!

The pillar began to crack under pressure, losing so much force against the Dragon Cleaver. Yunlong took this chance and thrust the saber forward, cutting some dimensional fabrics on the way there.

Seven-colored Dragon King blinked once and saw a dark blade hovering before her eyes. It almost pierced her head like a tomato.

“I give up.” She said while smiling at Yunlong.

Yunlong canceled all his transformation and replied, “Good fight.”

…

…

“You bastard! Compensate me with potato chips!” The Earth Dragon King grumbled while being tied in wood.

Yunlong smirked at her and said, “Be a good girl, and I’ll give you the snack.”

“Anyway, how was my progression, Dragon God?”

“Better than I expected.” Dragon God chuckled weakly. “You have shown a wide variety of bloodline enhancement. That last transformation ignites your draconic power for a short time, correct?”

“Yeah. I haven’t used that technique for a while. The Silver Dragon King help me once to stabilize it.” Yunlong nodded lightly.

“Silver Dragon King??” The Dragon Kings gazed at Yunlong weirdly.

He shrugged and added, “In my reality. Dragon God was slashed in half by Asura God into Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King. She was the one who taught me how to use Bloodline power efficiently.”

“No wonder.” Dragon God muttered while thinking about something. “Yunlong, I know this is selfish… But, can you do one more favor for me?”

“Father is this about…” The Seven-colored Dragon King felt a sour sensation in her heart.

“What?” Yunlong returned while looking at them weirdly.

“I want you to retrieve my wife’s corpse.” Dragon God sighed helplessly.

[A quest has appeared]

[Name: Dragon God’s Small Request]

[Objective: Retrieve Platinum Dragon Queen’s Corpse]

[Reward: Spirit Bone]

[Penalty: None]

[Do you want to accept the quest?]

[Yes/No]

“Sure.” Yunlong accepted the quest.

“I thought Dragon Clan’s Graveyard has every dragon corpse that died in the Divine War?”

“Yeah, that’s the case. However, I couldn’t take my wife’s corpse on time before resting in Dragon Clan’s Graveyard. She’s the only True Dragon with ambiguous power.” Dragon God answered dryly.

“Then, where is she?”

“Her corpse should be in the Divine Realm. Or precisely, the Divine Battlefield.”
