The Legend of the Dragon King (Web Novel)

The nine round platforms suddenly swirled. Beams of heaven and earth spirits' lights descended from the skies, forming a conical barrier. Tang Wulin suddenly felt a force pulling at him, and instantly, a strange sensation spread across his body.

It made him feel as if he had already become the master of heaven and earth at that moment as if everything in the world was within his control. His senses spread out boundlessly. His ability to sense the various elements instantly cleared up. The entire mountain range seemed as if it was within his field of vision. He could even sense things further away.

He felt like the destiny of the entire Douluo Continent was hinging on him. This made his senses become extraordinarily clear. He sensed a wonderful change within himself.

The bloated feeling he had had in his body went away entirely. This was because he now felt like he was omnipotent. With support from heaven and earth spirits, he had become peerlessly powerful. The Golden Dragon Spear in his hands was scorching hot right now, and he heard a deafening dragon's roar resounding in his ear.

His Golden Dragon Spear seemed to have come alive, glowing like never before. At Tang Wulin's forehead, the mark formed by the Life Seed had become more visible.

Wisps of green light suddenly floated out from Tang Wulin's forehead. The heaven and earth spirits which were infused into his body with the Blood Gods Array suddenly flowed in the opposite direction.

Instantly, the entire barrier of light was covered by a green halo. An extremely dense life source instantly spread over the whole array.

When they felt the effects of this green halo, the nine Blood Gods, from Blood One to Blood Nine, had surprised expressions on their faces. This was because they could clearly feel that their own life forces being greatly strengthened. Their exhausted energies were restored. Even more strangely, with the strengthening of this life source, the heaven and earth spirits that had originally been under the guidance of the Blood Gods Great Array alone suddenly intensified. It was as if they found their source as they surged forth like a swarm of bees.

What was this?

Blood One's eyes brightened. He knew that he had made the right choice. Although he was not completely clear what this thing within Tang Wulin's body was, he could guess that it must be something crucial to the entire plane. It was what had devoured the origins of two abyssal kings. He must have been channeling the absorbed energy to them to help them utilize the power of the plane. With this, their confidence in fighting against the abyssal plane increased greatly.

Beams of bright light lingered in the air. Under them, the Black Monarch's expression was ice cold, with no emotion whatsoever.

Before her eyes, Tang Wulin's body was steadily growing. With the infusion of the shadows, his body quickly reached ten meters in height. The Golden Dragon Spear in his hands enlarged as well. Although he was alone, hovering there with the support of the Blood Gods Great Array, he exuded a feeling as if he could fight against a thousand men singlehandedly.

The Black Monarch swung her hand. The multitude of abyssal creatures that had frozen in place before this surged up like a swarm of bees and immediately shot up into the skies.

Under Zhang Huanyun's orders, every Blood God Army soldier commenced their attack again. For a time, various light beams and ammunitions wove a giant web of firepower, sealing the path on which the abyssal creatures were charging out from.

Tang Wulin wielded his Golden Dragon Spear and stared downward coldly. As the abyssal creatures died, something unusual occurred.

The strands of abyssal energy did not return to the abyssal plane but instead shot toward Tang Wulin. Seemingly in the blink of an eye, they had formed a vortex with the Golden Dragon Spear as the center and they surged into the divine tool.

Extremely powerful energy instantly surged into Tang Wulin's body, making the gold-red glow on his body increase in intensity. Tang Wulin's body enlarged and he struck out with his spear subconsciously.

The giant Golden Dragon once again became the extension of his Golden Dragon Spear and it suddenly blasted its way into the crowd of abyssal creatures, destroying a huge amount of them. The abyssal creatures turned into abyssal energy and were devoured by it.

With the support of heaven and earth spirits, Tang Wulin's endurance was greatly increased. It was as if he had another massive body. The energy that he could not bear would be absorbed by this extra body. The aura around him also grew stronger and stronger.

Tang Wulin was completely certain that the energy he could control at this moment could be compared to a Limit Douluo. Under the protection of the Life Seed and the heaven and earth spirits, he did not have to worry about his body being blown to bits.

Without a doubt, this situation could not be replicated elsewhere. This was because there were only one such Blood Gods Great Array on the entire Douluo Continent. With the addition of the Life Seed's feedback after it absorbed the abyssal plane's Plane Seed, it had given him the ability to temporarily control such a vast amount of energy.

For Tang Wulin, this was undoubtedly something amazing that he had never experienced before. The best part was, with such experiences, it had allowed him to feel the energy changes of experts' ranks. This gave a firm foundation for his future.

Under normal circumstances, a soul master's cultivation was done slowly in stages. A soul master could only go the distance by laying down firm foundations one step at a tie. It was just like what Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua said to Tang Wulin before: if he was willing to specialize in forging, he could help him swiftly reach the ranks of a Title Douluo through a certain method. However, Tang Wulin had turned down this offer. This was because if he took the shortcut, his fundamentals would not be firm enough. It would be difficult for him to reach higher ranks in the future.

Tang Wulin had cultivated for many years. It could be said that he had a strong grasp of the fundamentals. Even as he was absorbing these abyssal plane's energies, his foundations were extremely stable because he had the two great cores, the Dragon Core and soul core which he cultivated himself, as his core energy. He did not have the worries of normal soul masters.

However, his cultivation base would not experience any extraordinary improvement just by absorbing these energies alone. If that happened, he would still be faced with great trouble.

Hence, while Tang Wulin converted these energies through his Dragon Core and soul core, he only absorbed a portion of the essence. Also, he mainly used this portion to enhance and strengthen his body, instead of improving his soul power cultivation base.

Even so, his soul power was pushed to the peak of six rings in a short amount of time. This was done using only surplus energy. Most of the absorbed energy was used to strengthen his body.

There was no doubt that this was the cleverest option as it would lay a good foundation for him to continue breaking through his Golden Dragon King seals in the future.

The Golden Dragon King seals were the most important things to Tang Wulin. Not only could they improve his cultivation base, but they were also tied to his very life!

How could Tang Wulin not take them seriously?

He had absorbed a large amount of energy, and he silently felt the changes in the Life Seed. He infused these pure energies into the Life Seed and only retained a very small amount for himself.

As expected, although the Life Seed did not value these pure energies much, it still absorbed all of them. The Life Seed seemed not to possess intelligence alone, it seemed to possess extraordinary wisdom as well. It had understood Tang Wulin's intentions.

The dense life source intensified the gold-red hue on Tang Wulin's body. The bloated sensation he felt also lessened. He fired away relentlessly with his Golden Dragon Spear. He did not have to think about running out of energy. Every blast was like a shot from the most powerful fixed soul ammunition. It blasted the abyssal creatures under him to bits. Even abyssal creatures of the Black Monarch's rank hesitated to charge upward.

He was truly holding back ten thousand enemies alone. With support from the Blood God Army's warriors' high-tech equipment, the situation was completely under control. The five abyssal kings dared not charge up to fight him at this point.

It was not that the Black Monarch and the others had no confidence in themselves. It was actually because the closer they were to the passage's exit, the greater planar pressure they had to withstand would be.
