The Legend of the Dragon King

Dai Tianling regretted his action for not treating the Tang Sect properly. He was overly confident at the time. At present, he understood how far behind the Star Luo Empire was after witnessing the Tang Sect’s soul weapons.

He would need to figure out a way to get the Tang Sect on board Star Luo’s battleship. In fact, he was willing to pay a higher cost as this was a great opportunity for the rise of the Star Luo Empire.

At this point, Tang Wulin’s handsome face appeared on Dai Tianling’s mind subconsciously. He felt a twitch in his heart as the b*stard boy had taken advantage of his daughter. He truly wished to kill Tang Wulin! Yet, he had no choice but to admit that the opposite side would be cheering now had it not been for Tang Wulin’s presence.

At the same time, he had observed the extraordinary phenomena earlier. If the Tang Sect had mastered control over such an ability and the Star Luo Empire stood to benefit from it, what else was there to fear about the Federation?

Tang Wulin was unaware of Dai Tianling’s mood at present. The Tang Sect’s submarine was heading back to the Douluo Continent at top speed.

After a few days of rest and recuperation, Tang Wulin regained his peak condition once again. As they were travelling under the sea, they were unaware of the situation in the Star Luo Empire. However, they had already done their best. If the Star Luo Empire was still incapable of stopping the Federal Fleet on their own, then there was nothing else they could do.

“Hmm, you’re fine as expected. I can’t tell the specific condition of your body anymore. I can only say that your body’s endurance has surpassed the limits of a human. Even someone like me who is a Limit Douluo can’t rival your body’s endurance without using the strength of a demigod.”

After the information transfer, the Holy Spirit Douluo was back in the submarine. She had spent the past few days observing the condition of Tang Wulin’s body.

She had learned about the lightning storm which took place the other day. She felt quite surprised that Tang Wulin remained safe in the massive surge of lightning. So, she monitored Tang Wulin for a few days fearing that there might be side-effects from the incident.

As it turned out, Tang Wulin’s body was no longer human. Not only was there no side-effect, Tang Wulin was, in fact, as high-spirited and valiant as the dragon.

He was in rather good health, and his body was undergoing benign transformations every day. After his ninth soul ring was formed, he attained the rank of a Title Douluo finally. There was no urgent need for him to continue elevating himself anymore. He only needed to focus on stabilizing his rank.

Tang Wulin displayed an impressive performance whereby he took his time. He set a simple target for himself. He was going to stabilize his rank completely and master the control of his body before his return to the Douluo Continent.

“Thank you, Mother. I think I’m fine and in a better state than I’ve ever been.” Tang Wulin was feeling great with the substantial elevation of his physical condition. He felt that even the Golden Dragon King Seal did not threaten him as much now.

He had already broken through twelve Golden Dragon King Seals at present. There were still six more seals to go and each of them would certainly be more ferocious than the preceding one. However, he felt more confident now that the thirteenth seal would not be too much of a threat.

He understood that he would need to prolong the breakthrough of his seals as much as possible after communicating with his biological father. Otherwise, even the strength left behind in his body by his father could not possibly suppress the Golden Dragon King’s destructive thoughts completely.

It was a top-grade Godhood-rank after all. Unless Tang Wulin ascended into Godhood, otherwise, he could not possibly absorb the Golden Dragon King’s power completely for his own use.

Consequently, Tang Wulin did not have the slightest intention to breakthrough his seal in advance despite his body’s endurance which had improved by leaps and bounds. It was more important for him to consolidate all his abilities right now.

He had gained immensely from his visit to the two great empires this time. The return trip which lasted a few months was conducive for him to process his gains.

On the other hand, Tang Wulin seemed to be transforming daily in the eyes of his comrades. His dominant quality seemed to be lacking a little. In fact, he had become gentler. He appeared to be an ordinary person on most occasions. Nonetheless, the milder he was, the more dangerous he felt.

“Big brother, don’t.” Xie Xie looked at Tang Wulin with a bashful expression.

Tang Wulin felt speechless. “Didn’t you always want to surpass me? Let’s have a spar. Don’t worry, I’ll be merciful.”

Xie Xie shook his head profusely akin to a rattle. “No, no. I’m not planning to surpass you at all. Actually, I didn’t either in the past. It has always been Yue Zhengyu’s idea. Ask him if you don’t believe me.” There was a saying: ‘Brother, it’s better you die than I die.’ Xie Xie had witnessed the storm with his own eyes. He would not want to spar with a monster like Tang Wulin.

Xu Xiaoyan covered her mouth and chuckled softly. She did not attempt to speak on behalf of Yue Zhengyu either. Ye Xinglan and Yuanen Yehui were perfecting the three-word battle armors for everyone. At their work rate, the three-word battle armors for the Shrek Seven Monsters would be completed by the time they arrived in the Douluo Continent. By then, everyone would become three-word battle armor masters.

Tang Wulin had been accumulating his gains and become thoroughly acquainted with his abilities recently. He conducted a self-examination to find out the things he had learned from this experience, but he could only test and verify his abilities through actual combat. That was why he went looking for Xie Xie.

“Die, Xie Xie! Since when did I say that I wished to surpass the captain? Are you even human? Captain, I’ve always been your loyal fan. Xie Xie has been making malicious remarks about you behind your back. Do take a beating out of him. We’ll be cheering for you!”

Yue Zhengyu walked in through a door at the side. He glanced at Xu Xiaoyan whom had been secretly sending messages to him. He had a look of resentment and deep hatred on his face.

Tang Wulin spoke with a slight helplessness, “Is it okay if both of you spar with me then?”

“No!” said both of them in unison.

Tang Wulin was a true Title Douluo now. Yue Zhengyu had just achieved breakthrough to Soul Douluo-rank a few days ago, while Xie Xie still lacked the most crucial cultivation to achieve the Soul Douluo realm. They were not Tang Wulin’s worthy opponents even with their combined efforts when they were previously of the same rank, let alone now when there was a large disparity in their abilities. They did not wish to endure the torment!

“Both of you are cowards…” Tang Wulin felt speechless.

He was truly itching for a spar at present, and he found himself yearning for the Battle of Five Gods. The more stressed out he was, the better it was for him to express his potential. However, it appeared there was no suitable opponent for him currently.

Although his godmother was a Limit Douluo, she was not a big fan of battles and was more skilled in healing. As for the rest of them, no one was willing to partake in a spar with Tang Wulin.

“How about if we ask Xu Xiaoyan? Xu Lizhi can join too! The four of you against me.” Tang Wulin looked at them with anticipation.

Xu Xiaoyan spoke with a hidden bitterness in her eyes, “Captain, I’m a girl. How could you ask that of me?”

Tang Wulin spoke in an unpleasant tone, “Stop pretending. You’re a first-class actor when we were in the academy. Don’t try to bewitch me. Xinglan and Yuanen are the best! They’ll never say no to a challenge if they were here. How are all of you going to progress if you dare not face a challenge? Didn’t you notice that my speed improved tremendously when I was continuously engaged in challenging the powerhouses?”

“Knock it off!” said the three of them almost in unison.

“Alright. Forget it then. I’m heading to the sea’s surface for a practice by myself. Perhaps I’ll encounter some powerful sea soul beast!” Tang Wulin walked away resentfully.

In reality, he was well aware that he could not possibly encounter any powerful sea soul beasts. The sea soul beasts would not attack him at all due to the Sea God’s aura on his body.

The submarine ascended from the depths. Tang Wulin flew out onto the surface of the sea. He inhaled the fresh, moist air and was refreshed at once.

Even though Xie Xie and the rest had refused to fight against Tang Wulin, they would not miss out on the opportunity to take in some fresh air. All of them followed Tang Wulin to the surface. Nonetheless, they refused to approach Tang Wulin but only watched him from a distance.

Tang Wulin darted a look at his three vigilant comrades. He thought about A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi who were competitive as well, but both of them were engaged in closed door cultivation now. Otherwise, he could ask them out for a spar.

He felt rather restless about not being able to express his power despite having all that power.

A dash of purple flashed once in his eyes as the soul rings arose from underneath his feet.

Four black soul rings appeared first, then the green-gold soul ring, followed by the sixth to the eighth soul rings which were all orange-gold, while the ninth soul ring had an odd color. The ninth soul ring was blood-red on the surface with a layer of purple-gold radiance circulating inside.

In fact, Tang Wulin could possibly be the first man in history who possessed the one-hundred year Thunderclap Nether Vine as both his soul ring and spirit soul.

The nine soul rings complemented each other. The colors were not only different but extraordinary: a peculiar green-gold, a shocking orange-gold, and a prestigious purple-gold.

His long hair hung down loosely on his back. There was an unusual quality to him especially when he was at sea. Even the sea water turned crystal clear in his presence.

The thick water element around Tang Wulin supported his weight. Even though he was flying in the air, he remained his best at all times with minimal energy consumption.
