The Legend of the Dragon King

Panda Novel

Meanwhile, the surrounding gray world began churning like boiling water. Enormous skeletons slowly rose out of the surrounding area. It was utterly impossible to determine what kind of creatures these skeletons had been in life. There were some that looked like dragons while others had the shape of different beasts. There were also those that appeared to be more like sea creatures.

These enormous underworld monsters filled the space at once and violently attacked the giant white dragons.

Light was supposed to suppress darkness, but the energy emitted from these underworld creatures’ bodies did not show the slightest fear of the light force. They pounced toward the Thousand Dancing Dragons akin to surging waves, numbering ten to a hundred times more than the dragons.

It was a Domain Suppression!

The Underworld Death Domain was supposed to be the Underworld King Ha Luosa’s soul skill, but, to everyone’s surprise, it had somehow managed to suppress the Holy Dragon Douluo En Ci’s four-word battle armor’s domain.

There were many occasions when the truth was even more dramatic than fiction. If the public was told what was happening here before everyone’s eyes, possibly none would believe that it was true.

Nevertheless, the reality of it was there for all to see. Despite being first among men in the Star Luo Empire, the Holy Dragon Douluo was completely suppressed by the opponent.

At that moment, a strange thought arose in Tang Wulin’s mind. He thought, ‘The Star Luo Empire would truly lose if Ha Luosa was sent to participate in the Battle of Five Gods in my place!’

He could not believe that the Holy Spirit Cult actually had such a formidable powerhouse. If the Atlas Douluo was still around, Tang Wulin wondered if he could outmatch Ha Luosa?

En Ci had a drastic change of countenance as well. His arms drew a circle in front of his body. Soul skills were not important for someone of his rank for as they had already merged into one and he could materialize it without much effort.

Even though the Qilin Douluo Tong Yu had also reached Limit Douluo-rank, he was still quite far from having this ability.

En Ci’s right hand patted the air, creating a small tremor and instantly creating a terrifying aura. The entire space seemed to collapse and put pressure on the Underworld King Douluo.

“Haven’t you figured it out yet?” Ha Luosa asked coldly.

He took a small step forward, and his entire body turned crystal-clear in a split second. The compressed space disintegrated when it reached him and the surrounding gray color began to rise higher into the sky.

The white Light Holy Dragons in the Thousand Accusing Dragons began screaming in agony. Their illusionary bodies were torn violently by those underworld creatures as if they were made of flesh and blood. The dragons would soon be vanquished.

En Ci had a sudden change of expression. “You…you’ve already achieved that rank?”

Ha Luosa spoke indifferently, “if that’s not the case, why would I join such a worthless Holy Spirit Cult. They’re just a bunch of nobodies. I did so in order to eliminate the ‘pseudo’ and retain the ‘true’. I already went beyond having to rely on mass killings to raise myself for this rank five decades ago.”

En Ci’s expression changed once again upon hearing the words “to eliminate the ‘pseudo’ and retain the ‘true’”. Only his expression revealed that he was shocked and upset this time. His face also showed sudden enlightenment.

“What a lovely phrase. ‘To eliminate the ‘pseudo’ and retain the ‘true’.” En Ci took a deep breath and glared at Ha Luosa.

“If you’re willing, you can join us. According to my knowledge, we are the ones getting closest in the pursuit of that rank. In fact, we’ve already carried out an attempt. Even though we failed, we’ve also accumulated adequate experience. It’s highly possible that we can break through the final layer in the future,” Ha Luosa said indifferently.

En Ci’s first reaction was an eagerness to follow suit upon hearing those words. At his rank, there were very few things in life that could attract his attention. However, there was no doubt that the matter mentioned by Ha Luosa was highly enticing to En Ci still.

A sudden burst of peculiar dominance radiated from En Ci’s back. In that overbearing aura, there was a powerful deterrent force that conserved En Ci’s state of mind instantaneously. He became clear-headed at once but felt shocked at the same time. That was some powerful mesmerizing force there that affected his spiritual cultivation base. It seemed that this Underworld King Douluo before En Ci had spiritual power that had reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Domain Realm and was even approaching the edge of the legendary Divine Origin.

“No. There is little room for understanding between persons of differing principles.” En Ci spoke in a resolute and decisive manner, “All of you are selfish and merciless. For your own desires, you have no care for life whatsoever. The act of defying the heavens will certainly result in divine punishment. Perhaps there are many talents among you. However, all of you can never possibly break through that layer of restrictions, because even our plane will never allow all of you to achieve Godhood. Otherwise, it will result in a catastrophe across the entire plane.”

There was finally a slight change on Ha Luosa’s face. He spoke in a rather peculiar manner, “You can see things distinctly. The process of cultivating to Godhood is supposed to be an act that defies the heavens. There will come a day when we can break through the restrictions of the plane. Step aside. I don’t wish to kill anyone at my level. He is my only target.”

As he spoke, his eyes landed on Tang Wulin. It was a calm yet deep gaze.

Tang Wulin felt like his soul was being sucked away at this man’s glance.

Tang Wulin was almost certain that this man before him was the greatest powerhouse that he had met. He lacked the knowledge to know how the Atlas Douluo would have compared.

He had a feeling that a soul technology device of any rank would have already lost its usefulness before such a man.

Golden soul rings arose from underneath Tang Wulin’s feet while his eyes turned dazzling in an instant. The soul rings appeared especially brilliant in the colorless world as if they were illuminating everything with their light.

“Huh?!” Ha Luosa exclaimed in bewilderment. He understood his Underworld Death Domain very well. All substance and life would be tainted and corroded by underworld energy within the range of his domain. The first sign of infection was the change in color of the affected matter.

That was why the Hyper Douluo-rank Hu Jie’s body was covered in a layer of gray. Even when he was unleashing the Golden Belly earlier, the gray hue coated the surface of his belly as well.

It was just the same for En Ci.

Despite this, he could clearly see that the golden soul rings which appeared on Tang Wulin’s body were dazzlingly brilliant without any trace of infestation from the gray color.

He watched as a golden halo appeared underneath Tang Wulin’s feet.

“Roar!” A fiery dragon’s roar rang out. The shadow of a gigantic dragon’s head appeared in front of Tang Wulin’s body and let out a long roar into the sky.

At once, it was as if the blood was boiling in all the weak and dispirited Thousand Flying Dragons suppressed earlier. A layer of misty gold radiance enshrouded the bodies of all the Light Holy Dragons while the underworld energy that had forced its way into their bodies was expelled.

Every giant white dragon’s aura rose wildly. They shook their heads and wagged their tails while brandishing their sharp dragon claws as they boldly began launching attacks at the underworld creatures in the surroundings.

En Ci glanced at Tang Wulin upon sensing the change. In a split second, he felt his Holy Dragon Domain was growing exponentially more powerful in a split second. It had even affected his own aura, as if the domain had been injected with a shot of adrenaline.

It was an elevation that was close to one hundred percent. Immediately, it enhanced the Holy Dragon Douluo’s aura tremendously.

When En Ci was fighting against Tang Wulin, Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon King Bloodline was capable of suppressing his bloodline power and his martial soul. However, En Ci found that the Golden Dragon King’s aura had the best amplification effect of all dragon-type martial souls when Tang Wulin was fighting side by side with him.

Tang Wulin had previously discovered this unique quality when he was fighting together with his companions after his Golden Dragon King Bloodline had awakened. The abilities of his companions with dragon-type martial souls were greatly elevated at the time.

Thus, when his Golden Dragon King Bloodline was amplifying a powerhouse like En Ci, the effect was naturally incredible.

The Light Holy Dragon’s holy aura breached the constraints and was completely unleashed at last. Oddly enough, all the dragon-type underworld creatures in the Underworld Death Domain were being weakened.

Giant dragons had always been the beats at the top of the food chain. It was the same even in the Underworld Death Domain. The domain’s suppressive effect was greatly reduced without the dragon-type creatures. En Ci had pushed back a little from his disadvantageous position.

“Quite interesting. No wonder they said that you must be killed. Little boy, you deserve the reputation of Shrek’s chosen one. In my life, Shrek Academy was what I hated most bitterly. If not because of that old man the Heaven Blessing Douluo, I could have reached my current rank fifty years ago. However, Shrek Academy is also the only place that deserves my respect. None in this world are worthy opponents for me besides those from Shrek.”

“There are too many idiots in the cult. What a waste that they would use such tricks to destroy Shrek. I was supposed to slaughter Shrek and cleanse this world of it for my own benefit. If there are not too many things for me to attend to, I really hope to kill you when you’ve grown up. That’ll be interesting.”

Tang Wulin replied with a loud voice, “Enough nonsense. Make a move then. Come if you wish to kill me.”
