The Legend of the Dragon King

What was that…?

In the next moment, he turned his head to look to his side just in time to meet the Heartless Douluo Cao Dezhi’s astonished gaze.

Their eyes met one another. They could not help blinking uncontrollably.

They lowered their heads simultaneously and saw they were holding each other’s hand.

At once, they loosened their grip as if they were electrocuted. Furthermore, they each took two steps back instantly.

“What’s going on? Why are we here? I thought we’re already dead.” said Zang Xin in shock.

Cao Dezhi rubbed his eyes. He looked at his surroundings and saw the familiar silhouettes.

Meanwhile, two silhouettes were headed straight toward them from the faraway sky.

“Is that… Elder Long?”

The people flying over were the Light Dark Douluo Long Yeyue and the Boundless Sea Douluo, or perhaps, one should say the Sea God Douluo Chen Xinjie.

All at once, there was only shock and astonishment in everyone’s heart.

Tang Hao’s body was even more blurry now. Following the resurrection of almost everyone, his lofty silhouette shrunk once again as he made his way over to Tang Wulin.

“Grandfather, are you alright?” Tang Wulin looked concerned.

Tang Hao shook his head but said smilingly, “I’ll always be the lord of the Douluo Continent’s plane before your father returns. Due to the plane’s issue, my power’s supposed to scatter to every part of the plane, but my spontaneous consciousness won’t appear so frequently. I’m only revealing myself before all of you since your father delivered a fatal blow to the abyssal Sage King. I’ll always be around so long as the Douluo Star still exists. It’s also why I became the lord of the plane in the past. Your father will guide me back to the Divine Realm when he returns.”

“You’re a good boy. You haven’t disappointed us. My mission’s been completed. It’s time for you to enjoy the victory. However, don’t be overly relaxed. You still have heavy responsibilities on your shoulders. You’re already equipped with power which is close to the God rank now. However, you’ll still need to become a true god in order to travel through the cosmos to look for them. First, you’ll need to create a Divine Realm which belongs to you. Thus, you still have a long way to go. The Douluo plane will evolve after devouring the abyssal plane. At the very least, its upper limit on the suppression of the powerhouses will be increased. You’ll discover that in the near future. By then, perhaps the Douluo Continent will evolve into a Demi Divine Realm and possess a certain number of Godhood tablets which will strengthen your power. Your grandmother will be channeling the abyssal energy she has absorbed into the entire plane. I’ll be joining her in a deep sleep next. You’ll be able to absorb the pure life force from your grandmother’s body, the Ancient Life Tree. That’ll be the most suitable place for you to cultivate.”

“Are both of you going to be in deep sleep? How will I be able to communicate with you then?” asked Tang Wulin anxiously.

Tang Hao said, “The abyssal energy is too massive. It’s a plane that is superior to us after all. It’s not an easy feat to completely devour and absorb the plane. We need a long time to complete it. By then, the rank-100 will no longer be a bottleneck and limit for the soul masters. As to how long we’ll be in deep sleep, I don’t know either. Nevertheless, you’re nearly the most powerful powerhouse on the plane. We can sleep at ease knowing that.”

“Your father has always kept his word. Thus, we believe they’ll be back for sure. Perhaps, he’ll be back in time to wake us. Be good and cultivate with great effort. If you don’t have the proper coordinates, it’s better not to look for him on your own. Wait for his return instead. Your father’s way more powerful than you imagine. After experiencing so many events, I believe that he’s become more powerful too.”

At this point, Tang Hao’s somber face suddenly cracked into a kind smile. He raised his hand to caress Tang Wulin’s head. “You and your father are the same. Both of you’ve carried way too many responsibilities and endured endless hardships. When you’ve a child, and I a great grandchild in the future, do take good care of him. Our Tang Sect can’t have our descendants keep enduring hardship. Although suffering makes a person grow, it’s time for us to think of ourselves too.”

Tang Wulin said, “Grandfather, we’ll surely meet again, right?”

Tang Hao burst out laughing aloud and said, “Of course. The Golden Dragon King Bloodline inside your body will ensure that you live as long as the Dragon Clan. Moreover, you’ve already achieved a god-ranked body. It’s not easy to kill you. However, you must bear in mind not to open the two final Golden Dragon King Seals. Your father has repeatedly given the warning. You should be fine to guard the seals judging by your current physical condition. When your father returns, he’ll manage the Golden Dragon King’s power sealed inside your body naturally.”

“Noted.” Tang Wulin answered respectfully.

“Alright, it’s time for me to leave. I’m going to lend a hand to your grandmother. This is the grand gift customized by your father in ten thousand years for the Douluo Continent. We can’t let any go to waste. Go back to Shrek, and you’ll be surprised.”

At this point, Tang Hao turned around and swayed his body once to transform into a ball of seven-colored radiance shooting straight at A Yin’s direction. In the next moment, the seven-colored radiance glowed brightly. The massive abyssal energy was swept into nothingness almost instantly.

The seven-colored radiance suddenly exploded and turned into countless light spots shooting out in all directions.

It rained.

The pattering seven-colored drizzle moistened the land and nourished the Douluo Continent. The sky turned seven-colored as well. A rainbow stretched across the sky and shimmered with a faint brilliance in the sky.

There was a saying of ‘a rainbow comes out after the rain’. The hardship had finally ended for the Douluo Continent and the entire Douluo Star. A brand new Douluo Continent would be welcoming them next!

“Tang Wulin!” All of a sudden, a shriek was heard.

Tang Wulin turned his head and saw Ling Zichen sitting on the ground with a confused look on her face. She was screaming at him.

Obviously, she was resurrected as well. The cannon god who sacrificed and turned herself into a bomb was alive.

She appeared to be no different from an ordinary person. There was no Positive Circulation Source Soul Circuit unit nor the Eternal Heaven cannon on her body anymore. She was now an ordinary person, or as one would say a commoner.

Tang Wulin held Gu Yuena’s hand and descended together with her from the sky and made their way over to Ling Zichen.

Ling Zichen looked at him, and then she looked at Gu Yuena by his side. She suddenly said in rage, “Who resurrected me? Call him out!”

Tang Wulin frowned ever so slightly. “What are you doing?”

Ling Zichen said in exasperation, “Where’s my Positive Circulation Source Soul Circuit unit? Where’s my Eternal Heaven? Make him return those to me. Why am I resurrected without my stuff? It wasn’t easy for me to acquire those things.”

Tang Wulin was speechless. She was still thinking about her belongings despite the situation. However, he came to a sudden realization.

No wonder the explosive force of the bomb was so terrifying. There was more than just the Eternal Heaven which had exploded at the time! There were also the Positive Circulation Source Soul Circuit units on her body. It would be strange indeed if the explosive force produced from the two combined massive energies turned out to be weak.

“Those things of yours have already exploded. How can we possibly get it back?” said Tang Wulin helplessly.

Ling Zichen said furiously, “I don’t care. You’re going to compensate me for that!”

Meanwhile, a gentle voice was heard. “Can anyone please tell me what’s going on? Why am I alive?” The Skycrosser Douluo Guan Yue looked slightly confused as he approached them.

Not only him, the powerhouses who died in the battle earlier including Chen Xinjie, Zang Xin, Cao Dezhi, and the others all came forward.
