Douluo: I have too many clones

Chapter 540: The Dragon God Core Begins to Wither
"On Douluo Continent, the fastest record for cultivating from Soul Saint to Titled Douluo is Holy Spirit Douluo Yali, who only took one year."

"But now if I want to, I can definitely break this record and become a Titled Douluo in a matter of minutes."

Nan Fusheng stood there quietly, slightly closed his eyes, and felt the abundant soul power in his body like a surging tide. He was not just boasting, but had sufficient confidence and strength to support this statement.

Whether it was Nashida or Aponia, after they sacrificed themselves to Nan Fusheng, they already had sufficient soul power accumulated in his body.

This time, the fusion of Nan Fusheng and Tianzhen took three days and three nights, which was to sort out these energies so that they could be better absorbed.

Now the power of Nashida and Aponia has been absorbed, but most of the energy of the punishment remains in his body in the form of a seal.

Nan Fusheng knew clearly in his heart that even if he randomly chose a hundred-year-old soul to fuse with at this moment, relying on Tian Zheng's incomparably powerful soul power cultivation, it would be enough to push his strength to the level of Quasi-Title Douluo.

Of course, this is only in theory. Nan Fusheng still has some requirements for his own soul.

Gray, gray, gray, red, green, gold, gold, purple and black, seven soul rings of different colors slowly rose from under Nan Fusheng's feet, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.

The first three soul rings appear gray because they are now absorbed by the purple-white crystal.

"Master, since you have successfully absorbed the seventh soul, why not take a look at its condition first? When you signed the soul contract with Tian Zheng, this crystal swallowed the two Dragon God cores and the Worm of Time together. I don't know what the condition is now?"

At this time, after seeing Nan Fusheng finished his work, Fusheng No. 1 immediately came over to report the situation.

"Let me see." Nan Fusheng nodded slightly. While listening to Fusheng No. 1's report, he focused his eyes on the purple-white crystal in front of him.

This crystal is of extraordinary significance to him. It is a carrier of his soul that he has carefully crafted with a great deal of effort and energy. If any unexpected situation really occurs, it will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to him.

Unlike the unreliable soul beast of Qingque, the soul beast bred in this crystal was the soul he had reserved long ago.

"Huh? What's going on? Is it performing energy grafting?"

Although Nan Fusheng has not yet officially signed a soul contract with the crystal, relying on the subtle connection between him and the crystal and his own keen perception, he can still roughly perceive the general situation inside the crystal.
When creating this special soul beast, in addition to the dragon bones of the Mountain Dragon King and the Light Dragon King, Nan Fusheng also added a lot of his own blood and the clone of the Time Worm, so he has a deep connection with this crystal.

However, at this moment, in Nan Fusheng's perception, the situation inside the crystal seemed quite strange, which was very different from his previous expectations.

Inside this huge purple-white crystal, there are several vital things.

First, there was the Chimera Soul Beast that had been bred in the crystal for a long time and had now taken human form. It lay dormant in the core area of ​​the crystal, as if accumulating strength, waiting for the moment to break out of its cocoon.

Secondly, there were three souls that Nan Fusheng had absorbed into the purple-white crystal, namely the Time Worm Soul, the Star Worm Soul, and the Spirit Worm Soul. They were wandering in the energy field inside the crystal, and seemed to be undergoing some special changes.

Finally, there were the two Dragon God cores and the mysterious nine-colored Time Worm that were swallowed by the crystal three days ago. Since the Time Worm had the arduous task of filtering and fusing the energy of the two Dragon God cores, its body had been dyed into the colorful nine colors, making it particularly eye-catching.

Nan Fusheng carefully sensed the flow of energy inside the crystal and was surprised to find that the crystal seemed to be madly absorbing the enormous energy contained in the Dragon God's core.

At the same time, it also expelled a portion of the energy and accurately injected it into the original three souls.

"Is it trying to make itself purer?" Nan Fusheng thought to himself.

In his perception, the energy repelled by the purple-white crystal exuded an extremely strong and obvious dragon aura.

In the process of greedily absorbing the core energy of the Dragon God, it seems to have a unique ability to cut and separate the energy related to the dragon clan and only absorb the purest energy essence.

In addition, this crystal seems to be performing another remarkable operation - it is gradually separating the key materials for its own creation, namely the power of the dragon bones of the Mountain Dragon King and the Light Dragon King, and then cleverly transferring it to other souls.

"Could it be that it chooses to transfer through my soul because it doesn't want to be contaminated by the aura of the dragon clan?"

Nan Fusheng stared intently at everything that happened inside the crystal. He could clearly feel that the power of the purple-white crystal was steadily increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it was breaking through some shackles and moving towards a whole new realm.

"A second-level god?" A hint of surprise and confusion flashed in Nan Fusheng's eyes.

To be more precise, this is an energy fluctuation of the second-level god realm without the status of a god, and this fluctuation is still continuously increasing, climbing towards the level of a first-level god.

"I'm afraid even I can't predict what it will become now." Nan Fusheng sighed in his heart.

Originally, according to his idea, relying on the dragon bones of the two dragon kings and the powerful energy of the dragon god core, the Chimera soul beast nurtured in the crystal will most likely eventually present a dragon-like form.

However, the crystal now directly transferred all the energy related to the dragon clan, which made the final result full of uncertainty. Nan Fusheng even had an absurd idea in his mind: Will a worm really hatch in the end?

“Boom——” Just as Nan Fusheng fell into deep thought, the purple-white crystal suddenly shone brightly, and the dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire space, as if a dazzling star exploded with all its energy at this moment.

"A first-level god." Nan Fusheng's eyes narrowed, and an irrepressible excitement and excitement surged in his heart.

The strength displayed by this crystal at this moment is definitely one of the most powerful combat powers he currently possesses. Even the previous Heavenly Punishment, whose priest-level strength is compared to it, seems to be dwarfed.

If we have to convert it, the strength of Tian Zheng is at most at the same level as the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python.

The purple-white crystal in front of him was a genuine first-class divine level. Although it did not have the blessing of a deity, this did not affect its powerful strength.

"In theory, the environmental conditions of the Dragon Valley small world should not be enough to give birth to such a powerful existence as a god. Could it be because of the Dragon God Core?" Nan Fusheng's gaze moved slowly and finally fell on the Dragon God Core which was also located inside the crystal. His brows frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of doubt and inquiry.

Not sure if it was his illusion, but Nan Fusheng always felt that the light of the Dragon God's core seemed to have become much dimmer. Compared with before, the majestic and dazzling luster was obviously weakened, as if it had lost some of its vitality.

"It has really become darker. It seems that even something as powerful as the Dragon God Core can't withstand such high-intensity pressure and consumption." Nan Fusheng shook his head slightly, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

During the past period of time, the energy absorbed by Chimera soul beasts such as Tianzheng and Qingque is just a drop in the bucket for the Dragon God Core. The real energy consumer is undoubtedly this purple-white crystal.

The energy contained in the Dragon God Core is indeed enormous. In the original work, Gu Yuena cleverly used the Dragon God Core to consolidate the small plane called Wanshoutai, allowing it to exist stably and continue to grow and develop.

Not only that, she can also indirectly control and influence a large number of powerful soul masters through the powerful energy of the Dragon God Core. These examples are enough to show the magical uses and great value of the Dragon God Core.

However, everything in the world has its limits, and the Dragon God Core is no exception. Although it has an energy reserve beyond imagination, it is by no means infinite and inexhaustible.

After being "attacked" by Nan Fusheng for such a long time and with such high intensity, the energies of the two Dragon God cores finally began to show signs of exhaustion and gradually could not hold on.

"Are these two Dragon God Cores already a bit powerless just to support the breakthrough and growth of a first-level god? It seems that the actual energy they contain is even less than I expected."

If the Dragon God Core had consciousness, it would definitely curse Nan Fusheng. It was just a core that carried part of the Dragon God's energy, not the Dragon God himself, how could it have so much energy!

Not to mention, the thing in the purple-white crystal, while absorbing the core energy of the Dragon God, is also constantly removing the dragon aura from it. The energy consumed in this process is also not to be underestimated.

Under the double pressure, the energy consumption rate of the Dragon God Core naturally far exceeded expectations.

"It looks like it will take a long time to gestate." Nan Fusheng looked a little regretful, but it didn't matter. After all, he had waited for so long, and he didn't mind a little more time. It's just that Qingque's growth time would probably be extended.

Now that the Dragon God Core is occupied by the purple-white crystal, Qingque can only use the old method and let August hunt the sea soul beast, and then extract life energy through the time worm.

"Buzz~" At this moment, as if sensing Nan Fusheng's thoughts, the purple-white crystal suddenly shook violently.

Then, crystal clear rice-sized crystals slowly fell off its surface, like bright star fragments. At the same time, a faint but clear spiritual voice quietly reached Nan Fusheng's ears.

"You mean, use these crystals to feed the bluebirds." Nan Fusheng stepped forward and picked up these special crystals.

Although each crystal was extremely small, the moment his fingertips touched them, he could keenly sense the extremely pure and powerful energy contained in them. The purity and power of this energy made his heart excited.

"Qingque, you come and try it." Nan Fusheng waved Qingque to come over, and then gently placed a crystal on his palm.

Seeing this, a hint of curiosity flashed in the bluebird's eyes. It jumped lightly onto Nan Fusheng's palm and pecked at the crystal impatiently.

This scene gave Nan Fusheng an inexplicable feeling that he was raising rare birds, although in fact he was actually doing such a thing.

"Oh~ This thing tastes really good. It feels much better than absorbing the energy of the Dragon God's core before." After Qingque swallowed the crystal, his eyes lit up, and he flapped his wings excitedly and chirped non-stop.

"Go away, stop talking nonsense and tell me what you think." Nan Fusheng flicked Qingque's forehead in annoyance.

"Hehe." The bluebird smiled mischievously, then calmed down and began to carefully sense its own situation. After a moment, it raised its head and said seriously:
"This crystal contains a lot of energy. I just ate a small piece of it, and my cultivation level has increased by about 200 years. The effect is simply amazing. However, I feel that I can eat more, but then I need time to slowly digest it."

"That's good." Nan Fusheng looked at the purple-white crystals piled up on the ground and nodded in understanding.

Although each of these crystals is only the size of a grain of rice, they are produced from purple-white crystal. Each one is basically imbued with divine power and can play a significant role in improving Qingque's strength. This is also within his expectations.

"Now that things have been done, it's time for me to leave." Nan Fusheng said, and raised his hand to open the "door" to the outside world.

"Wait!" At this moment, Qingque suddenly flew to the top of Nan Fusheng's head like an arrow and stood steadily.

It scratched its head a little embarrassedly and said, "Well, can you take me out of this damn place as well? This little world of Dragon Valley is so boring. I really want to go out and have some fun in the outside world."

As if afraid that Nan Fusheng would refuse, Qingque quickly added: "If you find me annoying, I can transform into a human form and go out with you. And I can promise that I won't disturb your daily life afterwards."

As a special soul beast with the attribute of destiny, Qingque, although only having 20,000 years of cultivation, has the ability to transform like a ferocious beast, and can switch freely between human form and its original body. This is also a special ability of it.

“No.” Nan Fusheng refused without hesitation. “Even if you have transformed, it is difficult to hide the aura of the soul beast on your body. Even with the cover of the destiny attribute, as long as your mental power reaches the spiritual realm, you can’t hide.”

“Although there are not many people in Tianhai City who possess spiritual power at the Spirit Realm, there are still one or two. If you run into them, you will be caught immediately.”

"Ah~" After hearing Nan Fusheng's words, Qingque became like a deflated ball, visibly dejected, with a look of loss in his eyes.

“But?” Nan Fusheng patted its head and said with a smile, “The entire Tianhai City is our base camp now. You are just a soul beast. Even if we keep you openly, there won’t be any problems.”

"Let's go. You don't need to transform. Just stay like this. Otherwise, I'll have to explain to Xiaoyan."

"Go away, you're the one who's nothing." Qingque immediately retorted, then flapped its wings happily and followed Nan Fusheng.
