The Legend of the Dragon King (Web Novel)
chapter-1666

It was hard to imagine the effects of a super divine weapon in the hands of a quasigod. In fact, one could even say that if he was capable of acquiring the super divine weapon and exercising full control over it, he could very possibly break through the suppression of the plane and become a true God. He could even create his own Divine Realm and not just a miniature plane.

The Underworld King Douluo Ha Luosa did not expect that he would encounter such a situation on this mission.

He began to feel manic after the moment of regret. The attraction of a super divine weapon was even greater than the affairs of the Holy Spirit Cult. This was because the possession of a super divine weapon would hand him all the control he needed, without having to rely on other people.

If he could acquire such a weapon, everything would be possible.

He retracted his deathly aura, and everything in the surroundings darkened. Ha Luosa gazed into the distance to Shrek Academy. His silhouette flashed and he had disappeared into the darkness, leaving behind only his greedy, ice-cold gaze.

Elsewhere, there was a radiant shimmer. When Tang Wulin, Liu Jingyun and Ling Zichen reappeared, they were surrounded by bright green light.

Liu Jingyun and Ling Zichen were astonished to discover water rippling all around them. Despite being underwater, they were not concerned with drowning when they were within the green radiance.

“Where is this?” Ling Zichen asked instinctively.

Tang Wulin gestured for silence. He quickly said, “I’ll be leaving for a while. It won’t take too long. Make your way back first and wait for me.” He waved his hands as he spoke and two waves of tremendous force surged out. Ling Zichen and Liu Jingyun we’re blasted away like cannonballs.

Both of them felt a wave of dizziness flooding over them. In the next moment, their bodies felt lighter and they found that they had flown into the sky.

Liu Jingyun was a Soul Douluo while Ling Zichen was equipped with a divine mecha in her body. Both of them hastily adjusted their bodies only to discover that they were actually above the Sea God Lake with Shrek Academy nearby.

‘How did we come back? What’s going on?’

Still midair, their eyes met and they looked toward the lake once again. They saw a stream of golden light that vanished after a single flash.

“Director Ling, what should we do?”

“Return to the academy first. Don’t tell anyone about what happened today, especially what happened just before we came back,” Ling Zichen answered without the slightest hesitation.

“Yes, for sure.” Liu Jingyun agreed hastily.

Ling Zichen frowned deeply. She did not have a scientific explanation for much of what just happened. As a scientist, nothing bothered her more than this.

Upon returning to the academy, she pondered for a moment before she made the decision to look for the Holy Spirit Douluo. She felt that the Holy Spirit Douluo was the most trustworthy person and she could tell her about the day’s incident. After all, she was his godmother.

By the Sea God Lake, Tang Wulin hastily bowed in salutation toward the Ancient Life Tree that brought him back. In the next moment, he vanished into a ball of golden light.

As a super divine weapon, the golden trident was not so easily wielded. Tang Wulin was already capable of utilizing it as an ordinary weapon after passing the Sea God’s Second Examination. However, if he was using the golden trident to unleash a divine skill like the Indefinite Storm, he would need to face the trial of another examination. He would need to pass at least one more examination to return to his world. On the other hand, he would lose the blessing of the golden trident if he failed the examination.

If it had just been him, he would have been able to transport himself back to Shrek using the Ancient Life Tree. However, Liu Jingyun and Ling Zichen had also been there. He could not take them along with him unless he broke free of Ha Luosa. As a result, when he felt he was no longer able to withstand him, he had no choice but to launch the Indefinite Storm. He took control of Ha Luosa momentarily and used the opportunity to transport them back. Transporting two people did not tire him, but the Ancient Life Tree would consume more energy.

As a result, he had to face the Sea God’s Third Examination.

There was a shimmering golden light. In a split second, Tang Wulin had entered a world of gold, but it did not last very long. He heard that someone was calling out to him faintly. The voices sounded gentle as many of them came from his family members. He seemed to hear his father’s voice as well as his mother’s.

Everything around him suddenly turned crystal-clear, and the golden color had vanished completely. He then saw an incomparably shocking scene.

He saw countless mountain valleys that appeared to be as deep as the abyss. There was no vegetation in the massive valleys. Everything was yellow-brown in color and the place felt very worn.

Tang Wulin raised his head to look up to the sky. To his surprise, there were three suns. Two of the suns were purple in color while the other one was white. The light emitted from these suns made the world seem like a strange and grotesque place.

Tang Wulin attempted to move his body instinctively. However, he found that he could only observe, but could not move at all.

In the next moment, he saw a familiar figure.

The man’s long blue hair hung down loosely down his back, and he appeared to be very tired. Nonetheless, his gaze remained unshakeably determined as ever. He stood at the peak of a mountain and gazed into the distance. His entire body was emitting a faint blue-gold radiance.

Even though he appeared to be fatigued and there even seemed to be many wounds on his body, he was standing ramrod straight.

Following the man’s gaze, Tang Wulin was astonished by the sight. In the distance, a silhouette was standing on a mountain peak at least ten thousand meters away.

No, there was more than just one silhouette. There were a few others on the rest of the peaks.

The silhouette standing opposite had a tall and muscular build. He held a staff in his hand. For some reason, Tang Wulin felt like he was looking at Qiangu Dongfeng with the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand. It was that same feeling like combating heaven and earth.

Yet, Qiangu Dongfeng’s persona was like an ant compared to this massive figure. Standing over there, the long staff he held shimmered with dazzling brilliance. It felt as if the silhouette was going to destroy the entire world with his Combat Heaven and Earth willpower.

On the mountain located to his left was a man with an ordinary appearance. He even seemed to be somewhat honest and good-natured. It was only that his ice-cold eyes were filled with a deathly stillness. Tang Wulin’s feeling of familiarity was even stronger upon seeing this person. He sensed the same aura of the Underworld King Douluo Ha Luosa from this person’s body.

Even so, this person was different from Ha Luosa. He had an epee in each of his hands, both of which were full of vigor and vitality. A dagger hung diagonally on his chest, emitting a terrifying death aura. The blending of life and death resulted in an unimaginable aura that was just as strong as the Combat Heaven and Earth powerhouse.

The silhouette on the other side was most conspicuous because he had wings. More importantly, he had a total of twelve wings. His wings flapped gently and exuded a wild, terrifying aura that was filled with a thirst for blood. His hair, eyes and even his entire armor-clad body were a deep red color

The bodies of these three men were covered in wounds. It was obvious that the three of them were targeting the man with blue hair in the distance. Judging by their auras, Tang Wulin’s heart told him he was on the most intimate terms with the blue-haired man.

‘Are they father’s enemies?’

Yes, the person with long, blue hair confronting three powerful men on his own was indeed Tang Wulin’s father. He was the God King beyond his time, the Sea God Tang San.

“It’s best for you to accept your defeat. Even though you’ve already won in our hearts, yet there’s no way the final result can be changed,” said the man with a staff gruffly.

Tang San smiled. “Do you think that you’ve won, Xian Di?”

The man that was known as Xian Di frowned ever so slightly. “Could it be that we could have an unforeseen incident at our rank?”

Tang San smiled calmly. “There’s not supposed to be any, but my son is here. So, perhaps we will have one. Thus, I would still like to try it out. Son, watch. Father will let you have a sense of the true power of the Sea God’s Trident.”

As he was speaking, Tang San summoned something from the air. Tang Wulin felt as an unfathomably massive suction force descended upon him in a split second. In the next moment, he was astonished to discover that he had transformed into the golden trident. The trident seemed to have come alive from the moment his father took hold of it. The ineffable feeling of life pierced through Tang Wulin’s spiritual world instantaneously.

It was a feeling that was utterly impossible to be described in words. The only thing that Tang Wulin could feel was that there seemed to be something added to his heart in that moment.

What was that?

Tang Wulin saw it. A trident’s marks had been added to his soul. It was an imprint that came from the Sea God.

In the next moment, he heard a howl bursting out from his father’s mouth. The deafening cry sounded like the cheering of the sea.

He swung the golden trident, and everything around them seemed to turn into a sea of gold.

“Father!” Tang Wulin shouted aloud in his heart. Even though he had no idea what his father was dealing with, he could confirm that his father was engaging in a battle with formidable enemies.

He cried and yelled in his heart. He badly wanted to be at his father’s side and aid him in the fight!

Nevertheless, he was incapable of doing that. There was nothing he could do. In fact, he could not even see everything that was happening on the battlefield.

“Son, this is a Battle of Gods. No matter what, I won’t lose because it is only by defeating them that I will be able to return to see you. Wait for me, my son. Father will achieve the final victory regardless!”

“Boom!”

There was another loud boom in his mind. Everything else went blank.

Tang Wulin could not tell how long it had been before he realized that he had already returned to the golden world.

Shimmering with dazzling golden light, the Sea God’s Trident stood upright before him. The trident that was incomparably holy in Tang Wulin’s heart was interlaced with countless scratches. Only the spear prongs remained glistening with golden radiance.

“Sea God’s Third Examination: Imprint, passed. You may choose to return or continue the examination.”
