Soul Land 3: Legend Of The Dragon King Chapter 1437

"My Lord, I just don't understand why you're so protective of that Tang Wulin! His very existence is a threat to us, and his rate of development is only growing faster. If we continue to let him grow, it's very likely that he could completely master the Golden Dragon King's power soon."

The silver figure replied, "That's exactly what I want to see. I've already recovered the core of the Dragon G.o.d, and I'm waiting for him to develop to his full potential before fusing with him. Only then will the Dragon G.o.d be able to return in his full glory and rebuild the Divine Realm."

Di Tian stammered in a slightly slack-jawed manner, "B, but, who would claim dominance then? He's a human!"

The silver figure replied in a cold voice, "Are you more aware than I am of who will claim dominance following the fusion? I ordered you not to step in, yet you've disobeyed me over and over again. If I hadn't planted some surveillance on him, he would've most likely fallen by your hands already! He still hasn't developed to his full potential and completely absorbed the Golden Dragon King's power yet. If I kill him now and absorb his power, it's very likely that the Dragon G.o.d will never be able to return in his full glory."

"My sincerest apologies, my Lord." Di Tian was still rather unconvinced by this for some reason, but he couldn't pinpoint any fallacies in the silver figure's explanation.

The silver figure continued, "I'll let things slide this time, but from now on, stay out of this matter and leave him to me!"

"Yes!" The four Great Beasts bowed in unison.

The silver figure then made her way over to Di Tian and placed a hand onto his head. Di Tian's body shuddered, and the erratic flow of his life force began to stabilize itself again.

"Thank you, my Lord." Di Tian heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he could sense that the silver figure's power had truly returned.

He had dared to disobey her orders and attack Tang Wulin in large part due to the fact that she still hadn't fully recovered her powers, so he could still overpower her if need be. However, he certainly didn't dare to do so from now on. He was well aware of just how fearsome she was at the height of her powers; she was like a deity among men!

The planar power of the Douluo Continent was no longer anywhere near sufficient to repress a being like her, and in a sense, it could even be said that she could contend with the entire plane on her own.

"Make the required preparations; we have to initiate the next part of our plan. The human world is going to be thrown into ma.s.sive turmoil soon, and this is the best opportunity for us."

"Yes, my Lord!"

...... 

When Tang Wulin reawakened, he was greeted by the sight of a boundless golden world.

This was a completely silent and peaceful world. He reflexively raised his head to find a wide path up ahead. It was the only landmark in this golden world, so it was impossible to miss, and it stretched on into infinity.

"You will be undergoing the Nine Trials of the Sea G.o.d. Only after completing the trials will you be able to truly master the golden trident's power, so forge on ahead with courage and determination."

The familiar voice of Tang San rang out beside his ears, sending a surge of warmth flowing through Tang Wulin's heart.

The Nine Trials of the Sea G.o.d?

...... 

Light flashed, and Shrek's Six Monsters and Sima Jinchi appeared in an unfamiliar and open place.

They were situated on a plain rather than in the lush Great Star Dou Forest.

Xie Xie murmured to himself in a slack-jawed manner, "Can somebody tell me what just happened? Am I dreaming right now?"

His words echoed everyone's thoughts.

Yuanen Yehui's brows were tightly furrowed as she said, "That silver claw was really powerful."

All of them could sense that the silver claw that had sent Bear Lord flying was extremely powerful, but they couldn't sense exactly how powerful it was. Perhaps it belonged to a being of the same caliber as Beast G.o.d Di Tian.

How could they not be stunned after seeing something like that?

Prior to this day, they had never thought that there would be such powerful soul beasts left in existence. All four of the Great Beasts were top-tier powerful beings. If it hadn't been for the Sea G.o.d's Trident that Tang Wulin had summoned and that silver claw at the end, they'd most definitely already be dead.

"I'm more worried about where Boss is right now," Yue Zhengyu said with a wry smile.

Indeed, where had Tang Wulin gone? He seemed to have been taken away by the golden trident, but where had he been taken to? Was he safe?

No one could've envisioned that their trip to search for crystals of life would conclude in such an inexplicable manner.

During the recent period of time, everyone had been rapidly progressing. They had all become Soul Doulous and attained a suit of three-word battle armor, as well as 100,000-year-old soul spirits. As a result of this, they had inevitably developed a sense of pride and complacency, but even after going all-out, they had still been comprehensively crushed during the recently concluded battle.

With their combined powers, they could perhaps contend with one of Myriad Demon King or Bear Lord, but they had no chance against Beast G.o.d Di Tian.

"Have any of you seen that trident before? What was that thing?" Ye Xinglan asked.

Xie Xie hurriedly replied, "I've seen it before; it appeared once back when Wulin was creating that storm and fusing with the Infernal Lightning Vine, and on that occasion, a humanoid projection had also appeared. I couldn't see the projection very clearly, but the trident's aura was extremely powerful. It seems like Boss was unable to completely control it. If he was telling the truth back there, then it's very like that the trident is imbued with G.o.dly power!"

Tang Wulin had declared that he was going to show Di Tian the power of a G.o.d, and he was only just barely able to keep Di Tian's attack at bay using his Millennium White Clouds.

However, the final outcome was something that even Tang Wulin himself had most likely failed to antic.i.p.ate. No one was of the opinion that Tang Wulin had intentionally abandoned everyone and fled; that simply wasn't who he was.

However, the fact of the matter was that he had disappeared.

"Let's go back for now; perhaps he's already gone back," Sima Jinchi.

Despite what he was saying, even he was unconvinced by his own words. He had a spiritual connection with Tang Wulin through his Dragonslaying Saber, but at this moment, he couldn't sense Tang Wulin at all.

Ye Xinglan nodded in response. "There's not much else we can do."

A wry smile appeared on Xu Xiaoyan's face. "What are we going to tell everyone when we get back?"

Tang Wulin was extremely vital to both the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy; his sudden disappearance was definitely going to be a ma.s.sive blow to Shrek Academy, which had only just begun its rebuild.

...... 

"Powerful energy fluctuations appeared in the Great Star Dou Forest, and even the protective barrier was compromised?" Qiangu Dongfeng had been in a very bad foul mood for the past few days.

Ever since the Shrek Academy bombing, he had thought that Shrek Academy was a thing of the past. Even if someone wanted to rebuild Shrek Academy, surely it wouldn't be the same Shrek Academy as it once was.

However, never did he think that this day would come so soon, and what was even more astonis.h.i.+ng to him was that all of the academy's students were still alive.

This was a major problem, and adopting several different tactics, he discovered that he couldn't do anything to Shrek Academy.

In the current situation, where the Holy Spirit Cult was unwilling to do the dirty work, Shrek Academy was virtually untouchable. Both the Spirit PaG.o.da and the Tang Sect were currently being heavily weighed down by controversy, so he didn't dare to make any big moves.
