The Legend of the Dragon King

In the history of Tang Wulin’s cultivation, he had undergone multiple processes of achieving mastery through comprehensive understanding. On the other hand, it was a brand-new experience for him this time. Changes began to appear to him after he had completed Heavenly Refinement and comprehended the depth of elemental calamity.

Tang Wulin discovered that he was not only forging metal but also himself during Heavenly Refinement. On the other hand, Heavenly Refinement was a process of removing the flaws and retaining the essence. He preserved the essence for further refinement while rejecting the dross continuously so that he could become more powerful.

An ordinary soul master would generally be plagued by the lack of soul skills. On the other hand, it was the exact opposite for Tang Wulin. He had the Bluesilver Emperor and the Golden Dragon King bloodline in addition to the Golden Dragon Nine Moves learned from the Scarlet Dragon Douluo years ago. He had a large amount of soul skills, and he had attained his domain as well. In addition, his spirit souls were powerful and these soul skills supplied him with even more soul skills. He had dozens of soul skills in total.

How could he utilize so many soul skills in a battle perfectly? How many could he use in a single battle?

Recently, Tang Wulin had already found himself seriously considering these questions.

After gradually learning and understanding the two great divine skills including the Millennium Clouds and the Indefinite Storm left behind by his father, he found that he was becoming more aware that the number of soul skills did not signify his power. The combination of heaven and earth laws could truly allow him to resonate with the Heaven and Earth to result in even more powerful strength.

The so-called Godhood was actually referring to a being that had seized control of a certain number of universal laws. In other words, any creature could be said to have reached Godhood as long as they had control over some universal laws.

The laws understood by every person were different from one another just as Tang Wulin’s understanding could not possibly be the same as Tang San.

The process of Heavenly Refinement allowed him to capture a wisp of that from the elemental calamity. He was using the elemental calamity and Heavenly Refinement to polish himself.

As soon as the grinding process was completed and he had achieved mastery through comprehensive understanding of the subject, he could advance one step further and step into the ranks of the Hyper Douluos.

Joust For A Spouse was the juncture for him. Everything else aside, it would have already been totally worth it if he could seize this opportunity to achieve Heavenly Refinement. Of course, the prerequisite was that his final purpose could be achieved.

“How did you lose? How did it feel at the time?” inquired Qiangu Zhangting as he looked at Ao Wuchang standing before him.

It was until this exact moment that Ao Wuchang stopped convulsing. With the efforts of recovery-type soul masters, his injuries were not considered too severe. His entire body was extremely numb, making him spasm for a moment every few steps. He could only continue walking after his body recovered.

“I…I can’t explain clearly.” Ao Wuchang’s stuttering voice sounded broken.

“At the time, I felt that I was surrounded by lightning. I was about to mobilize my other soul skills instinctively, but I discovered that my body was numb. It was terrifying. The Wolf Emperor was guarding me at the time, but its protection was shattered by the lightning in a split second. Then, my entire body was paralysed and the vision before my eyes blackened before I lost consciousness,” said Ao Wuchang with a bitter smile.

Qiangu Zhangting’s lips twitched for a moment. He truly wished that he could call out Ao Wuchang for being a good-for-nothing, but he refrained himself from doing it as Ao Wuchang had a rather respected status and identity.

“Then you shall go back and rest. Your opponent comes from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan. Your defeat is not unjust.”

Ao Wuchang hesitated for a moment before he spoke, “However, I felt something at the time. When he shouted out, the Wolf Emperor transmitted a fearful emotion to me. This was also a major reason that caused the Wolf Emperor was unable to fully utilize it’s abilities.”

Qiangu Zhangting spoke in an unpleasant tone, “That’s called bloodline suppression, don’t you know? The ability is inherent to the Dragon Clan.”

Ao Wuchang muttered to himself, “But it seemed like the suppression was so formidable that even I was affected.”

“Alright. You should go and take a rest. I’ll make an analysis based on the tabulated data.”

Qiangu Zhangting was already feeling slightly exasperated by Ao Wuchang. Qiangu Zhangting told Gu Yuena that Ao Wuchang’s purpose for participating in this competition was to train himself but not to compete for a spouse. In reality, how could anyone from the Spirit Pagoda possibly contend with Qiangu Zhangting? Naturally, the organization made arrangements to send out a candidate like Ao Wuchang.

Whatever the case, the eight-ringed soul master was defeated so soon, meaning Ao Wuchang had not managed to eliminate any opponents for Qiangu Zhangting. Ao Wuchang’s presence was just a waste, so it was no wonder that Qiangu Zhangting was dissatisfied with his performance.

“Yu Longyue!” Qiangu Zhangting squinted his eyes. The impression made by the name in his mind had become even more profound.

In a land far away located on the northside of Douluo Continent, it was a world of snow and ice.

The northernmost part of the Douluo Continent was precisely the land of extreme cold. Not a single blade of grass could grow on this soil and only some special soul beasts could survive in this habitat.

However, according to legends, the soul beasts here were especially beneficial to soul masters. The founder of the Spirit Pagoda had even managed to make tremendous gains over here once upon a time. Thus, the Federation once performed a culling of the soul beasts in Thule. The powerful ice-snow type soul beasts were devastated and many powerhouses fell back then.

Of course, the Spirit Pagoda had benefited the most at the time. A large number of ice-snow type soul beasts were captured by the organization during the operation.

A troop of black silhouettes was seen in the frigid, white landscape.

They were all dressed in black robes with enormous hoods covering their heads to withstand the cold.

There was a stretch of mountain valleys over here. All the mountains in the surroundings were covered by ice and snow of a peculiar texture. In this frozen world, everything in the area was shivering ever so slightly.

It was not the cold that caused it to shiver but these men in black.

The black-shirted men came in a mass of over three hundred people. They were setting up something in a precise order on the floor.

Many unknown objects were being placed upon the snow. Occasionally, some ghastly light emerged from the surface of these objects.

The objects were set up densely and closely across the entire mountain valley. It was apparent that they had already been bustling about over here for quite some time. Even the Federation’s satellite would not be closely monitoring a place where so few people thread.

Meanwhile, at the peaks of the surrounding mountains, screen-type soul devices could be vaguely seen. Even if the satellite were to pay close attention to this place, it would only capture the image of a world of ice and snow.

“How’s the progress?” a hoarse and unpleasant voice asked.

“We’ve already completed sixty percent of the work. Everything is being carried out as planned” a black-shirted man respectfully replied to the cave from where the voice came.

“Very well. Carry on. Qiangu Zhangting has done well. All the attention should be focusing on his nonsensical Joust For A Spouse Festival now. Hah-hah, hah-hah-hah-hah!”

On the first day of the elimination match, the audience were watching with great interest. However, the first round took five days, so the excitement had faded by the end of it.

On the other hand, some of the most interesting competitions included both of Yuanen Yehui’s and Tang Wulin’s respective matches.

After Tang Wulin was listed as the popular candidate to enter the top ten finalists, he had developed quite a fanbase. Even though he conducted himself as an arrogant person in the competition, he had also used his abilities to prove that he was genuinely worthy of such pride.

On the other hand, Tang Wulin was busy forging with sweat pouring down his face.

“Boom!” The final strike was completed. All sorts of elemental radiance began gathering in the sky. It was time for the arrival of elemental calamity again.

He unleashed Devours the World!

The Damask Tulip stood by Tang Wulin’s side to help him maintain the effect of Devours the World. Seven-colored radiance circulated and transformed in the sky. When the calamity lightning dawned upon them, Tang Wulin would endure a portion.

After going through Heavenly Refinement recently, he found himself understanding the endurance of metal more and more. Additionally, the success rate of Heavenly Refinement was increased under his precise control due to his ability to absorb the elemental calamity through the utilization of the Thunderclap Nether Vine.
