Chapter 98 A Certain Silver Dragon King Begins His Actions
In the brief silence, a golden streak of light rushed over and abruptly stopped beside Di Tian, revealing the figure of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked at Di Tian, who was kneeling on one knee, tilted its large, furry head, and asked with some confusion:
"Di Tian, what are you doing? Does your other foot hurt? Should we ask Sister Bi Ji to take a look?"
Upon hearing these nonsensical words, several black lines immediately appeared on Di Tian's forehead.
He wanted to remind the Three-Eyed Golden Lion that its master had already awakened.
But the Three-Eyed Golden Lion didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and started talking non-stop on its own.
"Oh, never mind that, Di Tian. The Crimson King is about to be killed by a human! You have to go save it!"
"No, what I meant was that I sensed that kind of being with the same aura as me again, right here in the Star Dou Great Forest. This time it was very clear."
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion suddenly remembered something more important, its large golden eyes lit up, and it urgently added, "I feel that the Crimson King shouldn't be killed anytime soon. You should help me find that fellow creature first; that's more important."
"My auspicious beast, it's been so many years. Seeing that you're still so lively puts my mind at ease."
That clear and ethereal voice rang out again, tinged with a faint smile.
"My lord!"
The three-eyed golden lion let out a startled cry, only then realizing its earlier lapse in decorum. It quickly lowered its head to show respect.
The ethereal voice pondered for a moment, then made a decision, "Di Tian, I've decided to go and see for myself. You go and handle the matter that the auspicious beast entrusted to you."
"In person?" Di Tian asked, somewhat puzzled. "But what about your injuries, my lord?"
"There are some things that I can only understand more clearly by seeing them for myself."
As the words fell, the ground beside the Lake of Life suddenly trembled violently, and a huge crack spread out.
A burst of silver light suddenly erupted from the crack in the earth, and a huge dragon claw covered with hexagonal silver scales burst forth from the ground, each scale reflecting a strange and dreamlike brilliance.
Within that blinding silver light, a colossal dragon shadow, over a hundred feet long, loomed in and out of sight, radiating a chilling aura.
But this enormous dragon shadow did not last long; the dazzling silver light began to rapidly condense and compress.
Finally, all the light faded, transforming into a stunningly beautiful girl in a long silver dress.
She floated silently in mid-air, her long, smooth silver hair cascading down to her waist, her amethyst-like eyes clear and deep.
Her beauty is beyond description, beyond even a fraction of what mortal language can offer.
Any intelligent being who sees this girl would likely feel a deep sense of wonder at the Creator's favoritism; only such favoritism could create such a soul-stirring beauty.
"My lord, you are so beautiful. I want to be like you when I transform into human form."
The three-eyed golden lion exclaimed in surprise again, its golden eyes filled with astonishment and envy.
This was the first time she had ever seen the true form of this supreme ruler of soul beasts since she was born.
She was completely stunned by Gu Yuena's appearance, and for a moment she even forgot about the urgent matter at hand.
Gu Yuena landed gracefully, her bare feet stepping on the green grass, yet leaving no trace.
She stretched out her fair fingers and, expressionless, stroked the three-eyed golden lion's fluffy little head, saying:
"Mythical Beast, it would be best if you transformed back into your original form. Using someone else's appearance will only make you a substitute for them in the end."
The three-eyed golden lion squinted comfortably as it was being stroked. Upon hearing this, it nodded vigorously and said admiringly, "My lord is indeed my lord; you know so much."
Di Tian, still kneeling on one knee, looked at this scene with a sense of doubt in his heart.
In his memory, since the Lord split apart, He had been healing in the depths of the Lake of Life and had almost never been in contact with the outside world.
How could they possibly understand these principles of human relationships?
Is this the wisdom that the Lord inherited from the Dragon God?
Gu Yuena breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the three-eyed golden lion, which she had persuaded with just a few words.
If other soul beasts were to take human form and actually imitate her appearance, nine times out of ten, due to differences in bloodline and temperament, they would end up looking like a dog instead of a tiger, appearing neither fish nor fowl.
But auspicious beasts are different.
As an auspicious beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion also possesses pure golden dragon bloodline, which Gu Yuena dared not gamble on.
Her appearance was something she conceived little by little over countless long years.
This was almost her only pleasure and comfort during the tedious process of recovering from her injury.
If this silly auspicious beast really manages to steal it, Gu Yuena will be devastated.
Just then, a faint silver halo emanated from Gu Yuena and instantly covered the entire Star Dou Great Forest, clearly imprinting everything that happened in the forest into her mind.
She suddenly frowned slightly, casually tossing Di Tian a spatial coordinate, and said in a cold voice, "Di Tian, although that human wasn't wielding a true dragon's bone, he still desecrated the remains of my dragon race. He deserves to die!"
As she finished speaking, a hint of coldness crept into Gu Yuena's voice.
Di Tian, still kneeling on one knee, respectfully lowered his head and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."
As Gu Yuena tore through space and departed, and sensing the disappearance of Gu Yuena's aura, Di Tian stood up again, regaining his former majesty.
The three-eyed golden lion blinked its large golden eyes and urged, "Di Tian, my kind, hurry up and help me catch them back."
Di Tian sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. "My auspicious beast, I must first complete the task assigned by my lord."
The three-eyed golden lion rolled its eyes and began to whine and plead, "Then, Di Tian, I'll go with you to see the excitement too!"
"My auspicious beast, I'm not going there to play around. It's very dangerous outside. You'd be safer staying in this ominous place."
Di Tian's tone was somewhat helpless. Although the human was not a so-called Limit Douluo, he could not bring the auspicious beast with him and put it in any danger.
"No, I just want to go and see. I feel like I'm going to get moldy staying here every day."
The three-eyed golden lion simply rolled on the spot, as if she wouldn't get up unless Emperor Tian agreed.
Di Tian frowned slightly as he looked at the auspicious beast rolling and raging on the ground, feeling a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
"Di Tian, let her go with us. With me here, I will protect the auspicious beast."
A soft and gentle voice suddenly rang out.
Approaching was a tall, slender woman wearing a light green dress, with long, flowing emerald green hair cascading down her back like rippling waves, and eyes that were also emerald green.
Most remarkably, behind her stretched a pair of crystal-clear wings, as if carved from emerald gemstones.
As soon as the three-eyed golden lion saw the person, it immediately scrambled to its feet, ran over affectionately, and nuzzled the woman's arm with its head.
"Sister Brigitte, you're definitely the best to me."
Di Tian looked at it and finally nodded helplessly in agreement.
"Okay, but you must stay close to Brigitte and don't wander off."
With permission granted, the three-eyed golden lion cheered and followed Di Tian and Bi Ji excitedly into the spatial rift that Di Tian had torn open.
At the last moment before entering the rift, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion suddenly felt as if it had forgotten something important, but the thought only flashed through its mind.
After all, nothing is more important than watching Di Tian make a move.
Well, besides finding your own kind.
……
Soft sunlight streamed down through the gaps in the dense canopy of trees.
With the ability to detect mental activity, Huo Yuhao could naturally move quickly through the complex forest.
However, the golden mist emanating from his dazzling golden glazed armor was gradually thinning at a visible rate.
Both soul power and mental power are being consumed at an alarming rate.
Worse still, the Golden Dragon King's energy, which he had forcibly transferred to the armor, was now flowing uncontrollably into his body.
The third golden halo behind him, which had been somewhat illusory, began to gradually become more condensed.
The tearing sensation from inside the body intensified rapidly; bones, muscles, and skin ached everywhere, as if being ripped apart by the violent force.
If he hadn't possessed extraordinary resilience, he probably would have already fallen into a coma under such unimaginable pain and oppression.
Behind Huo Yuhao, the enormous Netherworld Serpent continued its relentless pursuit, its scarlet forked tongue flicking in and out.
Its massive body crawled rapidly along the ground, its speed no slower than Huo Yuhao's as he fled at full speed.
No matter what the obstacle, it is utterly fragile in its presence, and is smashed to pieces.
The Nether Serpent's evil eye was fixed on the figure in front of it, radiating an alluring life force; the surging blood and energy were an irresistible temptation for it.
As its prey seemed to draw ever closer, its inner ferocity and impatience intensified. It suddenly opened its mouth, and a mass of dark gray energy swirled rapidly, instantly taking shape.
The core of the airflow was pitch black, emanating a nauseating aura of death.
hiss--
With a sharp, piercing screech, a beam of light, as thick as a bucket and imbued with dense gray death energy, suddenly spewed from the snake's mouth and shot wildly toward Huo Yuhao.
Wherever the gray beam of light passed, the light within a radius of 100 meters instantly became dim.
Huo Yuhao relied on his mental detection to anticipate the attack and narrowly escaped to the side. A gray beam of light grazed the edge of his body and struck the forest beside him.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, only deathly silence.
A passage hundreds of meters long appeared out of nowhere in the forest, with all the plants withered and decayed. Even the ground sank half a meter down, presenting a deathly gray color, as if even the earth's own vitality had been stripped away and swallowed up.
Within the Sea of Spirit, Tianmeng, who had witnessed this horrific scene, cried out, "Yuhao, we're far enough already, let's teleport quickly. This guy is terrifying!"
"Teleport?"
If the second seal of the Golden Dragon King had not been broken, Huo Yuhao would have indeed chosen to teleport away.
But now that they've been half-untied and are enduring such inhuman pain, is it all just to flee in a sorry state?
If we don't get something back from the Netherworld Serpent, wouldn't it be a waste to have the seal lifted?
Huo Yuhao endured the excruciating pain in his mind and quickly recalled the map of the Star Dou Great Forest in his mind. At the same time, he looked up at the position of the sun in the sky to confirm his location.
He gave Tianmeng a few more instructions and then rushed toward a cliff.
A resounding dragon roar rang out, and the armor on his body shone even brighter, with countless intricate and profound golden patterns emerging. A surge of blood energy, reaching its peak, suddenly burst forth from Huo Yuhao's body.
A gigantic golden dragon phantom emerged from behind Huo Yuhao, soaring upwards and spreading its wings in mid-air, unleashing a roar that shook the heavens and earth, filled with an aura of domineering arrogance.
Using the force of his charge, a golden light flashed in his right hand, and the Golden Dragon Spear transformed into a blinding golden bolt of lightning, carrying an overwhelming aura capable of shattering everything, shooting straight at the center of the forehead of the still relentlessly pursuing Netherworld Serpent.
The moment the Golden Dragon Spear was launched, the golden dragon phantom hovering in the sky also swooped down.
Like a golden sun falling to earth, carrying an intense heat that could incinerate everything, it instantly illuminated the land below with unparalleled brightness.
Rumbling--
A massive mushroom cloud rose instantly, accompanied by a golden-red shockwave.
The intense, masculine aura instantly transformed this area into a golden-red inferno.
As Huo Yuhao began to fall down the cliff, he could see that the Netherworld Serpent had instinctively avoided its vital spot on its forehead, but under the melting of the golden-red pillar of light, most of its body had completely dissolved, turning into a pool of black sludge.
The extremely yang and vigorous aura of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline does indeed have a very strong restraining effect on the Netherworld Serpent, a creature of yin and death.
A pang of regret flashed through Huo Yuhao's mind.
If his current soul power cultivation weren't so low, that attack, which combined his spiritual power, soul power, and bloodline aura, would probably have completely evaporated the Netherworld Serpent.
With a splash, Huo Yuhao fell into the rushing river below the cliff, creating a spray of water.
Hearing the venomous hiss of the Netherworld Serpent writhing and thrashing in agony from the cliff, Huo Yuhao smiled slightly.
At the same time, due to Huo Yuhao's prior instructions, a mental fluctuation carrying a strong sense of mockery began to emanate from Tianmeng in the sea of consciousness.
In an instant, all the soul beasts within a thousand miles began to roar, clearly enraged by this sudden mental fluctuation.
The unique aura emanating from Tianmeng will likely attract many powerful soul beasts.
No matter what kind of soul beast arrives, upon discovering the heavily injured, dying Netherworld Serpent exuding an evil aura, it will definitely try its best to kill it completely.
Such chaotic and disorderly existences, like the Dark Demon God Tiger and the Devouring Dragon, would not be allowed to exist in any area inhabited by soul beasts.
Having done all this, Huo Yuhao's golden glazed armor disappeared as his power was exhausted, leaving him completely naked as he drifted downstream in the turbulent river.
Feeling the meridians and bones within his body being violently torn apart by the backlash from the Golden Dragon King's divine core, Huo Yuhao frowned slightly.
On the surface of his body, faint golden lines still remained, flickering and radiating an astonishing heat.
The surrounding river water was constantly evaporated by the high temperature, forming a narrow white mist that stood out prominently on the river surface.
Just then, a golden light shot down rapidly from above the cliff.
The returning Golden Dragon Spear transformed back into a thick layer of golden mist, carrying the immense life force it had absorbed from the Netherworld Serpent, and quickly merged into Huo Yuhao's body.
The bones, meridians, and even internal organs that had been damaged by the Golden Dragon King's violent energy began to heal rapidly at an astonishing speed under the nourishment of this pure life force.
During the continuous repair process, Huo Yuhao's body underwent subtle changes.
His bones, meridians, and internal organs all had a faint golden halo, as if they had been coated with a tough golden crystal, giving them a textured appearance.
The newly emerging golden mist grew increasingly dense, eventually enveloping Huo Yuhao's entire body and transforming into an oval-shaped cocoon radiating soft golden light.
It then sank to the bottom of the water and disappeared.
Above the cliff, Gu Yuena, hidden in the space, sensed the lingering aura, and her doubts deepened.
Her gaze then fell upon the Netherworld Serpent, which had been pierced by the Golden Dragon Spear.
At this moment, most of the Netherworld Serpent's body had been melted away, leaving only a small fragment lying on the scorched ground, writhing and emitting a piercing hiss.
"Noisy."
Gu Yuena frowned slightly and made a gesture with her right hand.
Without a sound, the body of the Netherworld Serpent was completely annihilated, leaving not a trace.
