The Legend of the Dragon King

The Battle of Five Gods was especially important to Tang Wulin who underwent a metamorphosis. After the transformation, he was fully-recognized as the Tang Sect’s Sect Master.

Back in the beginning, they did not mind that Tang Wulin was chosen as the Tang Sect’s Sect Master. They figured that the sect was cultivating them to be the reserved force. They would still need their senior powerhouses like the Amorous Douluo and the Heartless Douluo. Tang Wulin was just someone whom they were cultivating as well. He would still need some time before he could truly be in power.

Yet, it was not even a year before Tang Wulin had shown his ability to take charge as the chief. How could his comrades not admire him then?

Xie Xie realized it was hopeless trying to catch up with Tang Wulin. On the other hand, he felt proud to be Tang Wulin’s comrade. The Shrek Seven Monsters had also progressed in their development after having undertaken the trip to the Dou Spirit Empire and the Star Luo Empire.

Xie Xie could tell from the sparring session earlier that there was still a huge disparity between themselves and the Heavenly Kings Clan. Had it not been for Tang Wulin and Gu Yue’s Dragon God Transformation’s outburst during the final moment, they would not have stood a chance at all. What about this time? They had sparred against the same opponents who were the outstanding talents of the entire Star Luo Empire. However, they achieved easy victory this time. They had rendered their opponents completely helpless. In reality, they had not even exerted their full effort in the battle of six-on-six.

Yuanen Yehui was capable of stopping two of the more powerful opponents by herself. After all, it was only a spar, and all of them had not even used their full strength!

They were all geniuses, but their different experiences reflected the disparities among them. Undoubtedly, the Shrek Seven Monsters were bound for a long journey.

As he was thinking over this, Xie Xie’s gaze fell upon Tang Wulin once again. He thought to himself, ‘I wonder what the extent of our captain’s abilities would be after he has completed the spirit soul fusion and attained the Title Douluo rank. As it is, he’s capable of rivaling a Hyper Douluo despite being a Soul Douluo. What is he going to be like when he ascends to the Title Douluo rank? In addition to his super strong three-word battle armor, I’m afraid that the Limit Douluo will self-destruct in fear rather than fight against him.’

“Rumble…”

There was not the slightest hint of the thunder, wind, and rain stopping. Even after the linkage of the Strategy Alliance was completed, the three great fleets were still surging frenziedly in the raging torrents.

All the communication systems were disrupted. The same went for the reconnaissance systems. Due to the surging waves, they had temporarily lost the location of the opposing side.

The Boundless Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie’s expression grew unpleasant since the storm had been ongoing for too long. It was showing evidence of being a man-made effect.

However, the Boundless Douluo was confused by the situation before him. If it were man-made, would it not be terrifying then? He concluded that he did not have such an ability despite having such a close relationship to the sea.

It had been a full six hours and the crews of all the three great fleets were exhausted at present. Even though there were no fatalities or injuries suffered with the presence of the Strategy Alliance, they still needed to overcome the rigorous strain on their physical strength and morale due to the terrible weather.

Moreover, some of the soul equipment on the battleships were beginning to show signs of damage. Chen Xinjie received over twenty urgent requests for emergency reinforcements, and he was mobilizing his powerhouses to provide assistance.

‘Perhaps, this is caused by a super strong soul device that can disrupt natural phenomena?’

Such an idea arose in Chen Xinjie’s mind for a moment. If this idea were true, it would be even more terrifying. If the Star Luo Empire seized control of such a powerful force, then their sure-win war might just be not so sure anymore.

Chen Xinjie had made a name for himself in a hundred years. Hence, he had an unswerving determination and a lot of grit. At present, he could only wait it out. He dared not rise into the sky to investigate and risk running into the terrifying Lightning Hell despite his cultivation base.

The energy storm was filled with a natural power that no one could rival.

“Rumble…”

All of a sudden, an unprecedented loud booming noise was heard. Standing inside the main control room, Chen Xinjie saw the world outside change colors.

A purple-gold color that was never seen before suddenly appeared in the sky. The color soon covered the whole sky and the lightning was tainted by it.

A ball of lightning in the shape of a giant raindrop dropped from the sky heading toward the sea. In the next moment, it had fallen into the surging waves.

The seawater within the range of a thousand meters turned purple-gold. Soon after, the lightning strikes fused with the surging torrents to burst out with a series of intense loud booms.

“Quick, despatch my order. Turn on the protective shields of all the battleships. Activate the full-cover protective shields on the motherships,” commanded Chen Xinjie sternly.

Although he had yet to find out what the purple-gold lightning was, he had a premonition that it would be prudent not to contact the purple-gold lightning at all.

As expected, more purple-gold lightning balls began to drop from the sky almost like it was raining snowballs. It covered the whole sea together with the three great fleets.

Even Tang Wulin had no idea what was happening to the lightning clouds in spite of being at the core of the Lightning Hell at present.

The surrounding purple-gold lightning rendered his whole person in purple-gold. The dense purple-gold color made him appear translucent.

The wild growth of the Thunderclap Nether Vine and the Bluesilver Emperor had merged as one as it continued to absorb the lightning’s energy furiously.

It had never acted so recklessly. Ever since it was bestowed with intelligence, it yearned to absorb more lightning despite knowing that it would be embarking on a path of destruction. Where would it be possible to encounter a lightning cloud which carried out absorption endlessly and lasted for so long?

It had less opportunity to absorb lightning ever since it followed Zhang Geyang. On the other hand, it felt the greed which was not there before.

Each vine extended for hundreds of meters in the air. The internal part of the Bluesilver Emperor vine was blue-gold, but it appeared to be cladded with a suit of purple-gold lightning armor on its surface. It was covered with a crystal clear radiance. Each time it wavered, a large amount of lightning was channeled into the Thunderclap Nether Vine.

Each time it failed to endure the process and was about to be destroyed, the Bluesilver Emperor would channel a gush of pure and mild energy to neutralize the destruction so that it could continue to absorb the lightning.

The feeling was truly wonderful. The Thunderclap Nether Vine had begun to open up itself entirely for Tang Wulin.

‘It’s such a wonderful experience, so what if I’m destroyed?’

However, Tang Wulin was lamenting in secret at present. No matter how tough his body was, it would fail to withstand the Lightning Hell.

In reality, it was not just the Nature Child’s power which helped the Thunderclap Nether Vine in absorbing the lightning. It was also his power as the Sea God Child. He used his control over the sea and the protection of the dense water element so that the Thunderclap Nether Vine could sustain itself for a long time.

However, Tang Wulin’s body was already swollen with lightning power since earlier. The terrifying destructive power began to suppress the Nature Child’s aura. The lightning element was considered the most tyrannical of all the elements. Also, the Nature Child’s aura was slightly weakened by being on the sea. There were still limits in spite of the plane’s blessings.

‘What should I do? I’m afraid I’ll burst if it doesn’t stop. I’m going to walk the path of destruction together with the Thunderclap Nether Vine!’

Meanwhile, Tang Wulin’s forehead was illuminated abruptly. A stream of dazzling golden radiance broke out from the area between his brows. The dense purple-gold radiance was suspended in the air before him.

Xie Xie widened his eyes in surprise. What was that?

It was a trident about four meters long. A golden lustre hovered around the dazzling trident. The lightning in the surroundings seemed to quieten down while the sounds of thunder softened the moment it appeared.

The sea below began to churn wildly giving out countless mournful sounds.

An aquamarine jewel was encrusted below the center prong of the trident. It was about the size of a fist, and it emitted a soft glow.

“Son, I leave you three life-saving opportunities. They are for you to experience the Indefinite Storm personally. Use your heart to feel it.”

A familiar voice was heard in Tang Wulin’s mind. The voice was gentle and filled with a deep concern. He opened his eyes subconsciously and saw a man of indomitable spirit standing by the side of the golden trident.

A faint golden battle armor covered his entire body. His sky-blue long hair hung down loosely across his back. His eyes seemed to reflect the entire cosmos. His hand was holding the trident.
