The Legend of the Dragon King

In that moment, Tang Wulin suddenly felt like he was absolutely nothing compared to these veterans from the Blood God Battalion.

Before, he was feeling pleased with himself when he took over Blood Nine’s position. Yet this grandiosity of his had completely vanished now. In its place was a respect that was difficult to describe.

Tang Wulin could immediately sense the change in his body upon leaving the Blood Gods Great Array. His aura weakened rapidly as he slid down a few ranks in a split second.

There was no way he could make use of the planar power without guidance from the Blood Gods Great Array.

Not long after the Blood God Army’s soldiers cried out in alarm, their cries turned into unprecedented cheers, erupting like an oil blowout.

‘Blood Nine is alive! The hero in our hearts has not died! The man suspended in midair is an even greater hero that saved the entire army!’

At this point, Tang Wulin’s stature in their eyes was untouchable. His status had even exceeded the regimental commander and the Blood Gods. They could do nothing but bear witness as Tang Wulin overcame an abyssal king with only one strike from his spear!

The abyssal plane shook violently as another level shattered. The plane began to break down when the lord of that particular plane vanished.

The Black Monarch watched helplessly as Tang Wulin separated himself from the Blood Gods Great Array but she dared not charge out again. She had never felt so close to death as she had just felt.

She was well aware that the opponent had borrowed the strength from the entire plane, there was still nothing she could do as long as the great array existed.

She was even more afraid that Tang Wulin was doing this intentionally to tempt her into charging out. She did not feel confident that she could withstand an attack akin to what he had just launched! Being killed by this opponent meant the annihilation of both the body and spirit so she dared not take the risk.

At this moment, she had even begun to withdraw and doubted whether it was the right choice to attack the human world.

Meanwhile, the abyssal fissure behind her back suddenly shook violently.

Blood One’s expression changed as he hastily utilized the full strength of the Blood Gods Great Array to suppress it.

Yet, he was shocked to find that the seal on the abyssal passage seemed to be losing its effect. Some kind of pressure was leaking out from the fissure little by little and reaching into the passage wildly.

A faint energy aura was rippling away from the bodies of the Black Monarch and the other five abyssal kings due to the influence of this aura which resulted in a spike of their force. It was as if the planar power from the Blood Gods Great Array was incapable of affecting them.

“Good-for-nothings!”

A deep voice echoed through the entire abyssal passage. Soon after, the inside of the passage was suddenly illuminated by an otherworldly pale hue. It was as if the Blood Gods Great Array had frozen. Blood One could not use the array’s strength to continue stabilizing the seal. How? How was this possible? What sort of energy was that?

As the leader of the Blood God Battalion, the Heartless Douluo Cao Dezhi was a four-word battle armor master. He came to the conclusion that he had already cultivated to the highest possible rank below Godhood after examining his conscience.

Yet at this very moment, he was very aware that there was more than just a half step between his Limit Douluo rank and Godhood. The unexpected aura had even managed to affect his thoughts and mood. Could such a terrifying creature exist on the abyssal plane?

Six thousand years ago, if our ancestors encountered such a powerful creature, how did they stand up against the abyssal plane?!

The passage’s seal began to break as cracks rapidly spread across it. The ghastly pale white tainted every minute detail in the entire passage.

The cheers from the Blood God Army’s soldiers came to a stop as everyone fearfully witnessed the scene.

The energy radiating from the abyssal passage had obviously exceeded their understanding. In the depths of the passage, the terrifying aura had far surpassed any soul device. Even the rank-12 Godkiller fixed soul ammunition had not had an energy fluctuation anywhere near this.

The mountains began to tremor from after the seal was broken. Everyone felt something in their hearts. It was like the mountains would be broken into pieces and utterly destroyed when the energy burst forth.

“Welcome our respected Sage King!” The Black Monarch and the rest of the five abyssal kings retreated to the side with absolute reverence on their faces. Even the kings that were already of Monarch-rank were no exception.

‘Sage King? There’s still someone like that in the abyssal plane?’

Blood One felt bitterness fill his mouth for this seemed to have already exceeded what they could withstand.

Just then, a golden shadow flew passed. In a flash, Tang Wulin had returned to the inside of the Blood Gods Great Array once again. His eyes were still golden in color while faint golden flares arose from his body.

It sounded strange but as soon as he returned to the inside of the Blood Gods Great Array, the array went from being close frozen seemed to come alive. Nine types of heaven and earth spirits flocked together once again and infused into Tang Wulin’s body. The planar power was triggered as the Life Seed’s aura fluctuation in Tang Wulin’s forehead grew more intense.

“No wonder. This is the Life Seed from this plane that’s causing trouble, huh?” The stern yet deep voice seemed to sound a little joyous.

“Very well. I’ll speak with your human words then. This is known as ‘hitting the jackpot’ as it saves me from wasting energy looking for you. After capturing the Life Seed, I’ll be able to transport all the lives in this world at will. The millennia I spent trying to break the seal will not be in vain.”

The Life Seed trembled ever so slightly in Tang Wulin’s forehead, but in the next moment, Tang Wulin felt the fifth green-gold soul ring on his body shake in an inconspicuous manner. The six immortal grasses that surrounded his body earlier flew out of the Blood Gods Great Array simultaneously. They landed on the ground of the abyssal passage’s exit before taking root there!

What was that…?

Was it triggered by the Nature Child soul skill? No, it was triggered by the Life Seed’s stimulation.

Tang Wulin could clearly tell that the Life Seed was filled with dread at the unexpected presence of the voice. Otherwise, it would not be reacting in such a manner.

What sort of creature was that? Was that the most powerful creature of the abyssal plane?

At this very moment, Tang Wulin felt neither sorrow nor joy in his heart for he did not have the time to ponder and consider. He pointed the Golden Dragon Spear in his hand to the distance below. On the other hand, there was only irony in the expressions of the Black Monarch and the six abyssal kings.

‘Yes, it is true that the abyssal plane was defeated by mankind six thousand years ago. Even so, the ridiculous humans are unaware that the Sage King was in a deep sleep at the time along with a few other high-ranking Monarchs.’

‘This time, the Sage King wishes for the total annihilation of mankind at all costs so how can all of you stop that? The great array is highly capable of making use of planar power, but all of you are about to face the lord of our abyssal plane!’

‘The planar power of the human world is loosely organized, but it’s completely different in the abyss. The Sage King is the lord of the plane born after thousands of years of overlapping, constricting and combining of the purest energy in the one hundred and eight layers of the abyssal plane. From the moment his consciousness awakened, the entire abyssal plane was sure to rise again.’

‘The Sage King doesn’t even deign to ascend into their domain known as the Divine Realm as he wishes to create his own Divine Realm! Otherwise, the Sage King could have already become a God with his cultivation base, and he will certainly become the king of the Gods. How can these tiny little human beings possibly imagine that?’

‘This time, the Sage King will spare no effort in this assault in order to take down the human world, so that he can annihilate every single hope that mankind might have.’

A green hue appeared. Almost instantly, the color, bursting with vitality, appeared on every patch of ground on the outside of the entire abyssal passage.

From the Six Great One-hundred-thousand-year Immortal Grasses, the green hue spread at an unimaginable speed.

In a single moment, countless plants bored out from the pure white snow and covered the entire mountain range green.

Thick life source surged out like a swarm of bees toward the Blood Gods Great Array.

At the same time, branches reached into the hands of every Blood God Army’s soldier soundlessly one after another. In their minds, their subconscious ability to infuse their soul power into the branches was awakened.

The branches lit up as they were infused with soul power. The Blood Gods Great Array had turned dim before, but it brightened in a split second.

There was no doubt that the Life Seed sensed the presence of danger so it took the initiative to strike. Being the Nature Child, Tang Wulin acted as the conductor as he unleashed his life force without hesitation to guide in all the life source in his surroundings to him. He did not even mind sacrificing his life force to produce even more lives so that he could absorb origin energy better.

Thousands of the Blood God Army’s soldiers were connected together to help them to infuse their soul power into the Blood Gods Great Array so that the array could regain its prior glory.

Meanwhile, all the borrowed energy was guided into Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin would not be able to withstand such an amount of energy, but it could still be conducted through his body.
