Douluo Continent II: The Dragon King Suppresses the World!

Inside the gates of Shrek Academy, follow the road inwards until you reach the shore of Poseidon Lake. From there, follow the lakeside paths to enter the inner courtyard. At the end of this path stands a group of statues.

At this very moment, right in front of these statues, Bei Bei, He Caitou, Xu Sanshi, and Xiao Xiao all looked rather unwell. Surrounded by them in the center was Huo Yuhao, who had been missing for ten days, and Ye Qi'an, who had gone to find him.

Huo Yuhao looked a little strange. He seemed to be asleep, lying quietly on Ye Qi'an's back with a satisfied smile on his face. There was even a small white flower stuck to his back, which looked quite peculiar.

Just then, a brilliant blue light descended from the sky, accompanied by a slightly hoarse, sweet cry: "Yuhao, where is Yuhao?"

Wang Dong'er descended from the sky, landing just a few meters in front of everyone. Her once stunningly beautiful face was now unhealthy and pale, and she looked lifeless. Her eyes were red and swollen, and she had lost a lot of weight, looking quite unrecognizable.

Wang Dong'er's gaze immediately fell on Huo Yuhao, and she cried out in distress, "Yuhao, Yuhao, what's wrong with you?" As she spoke, she ran towards Ye Qi'an.

"This silly boy is fine, he just had a huge mental drain. He should be fine after a few days of rest. When I found him, he had already fainted. Did you see the flower on his face? This is for you. As for why, take a look at this letter." Ye Qi'an shook his head as he spoke, holding Huo Yuhao by the collar and handing the parchment that Niu Tian had given Huo Yuhao to Wang Dong'er.

Wang Dong'er was stunned when she saw the parchment. She had never known what illness or hidden injury she had, but the parchment described it with great certainty, and Yuhao was now in this state. She didn't know what to do. She couldn't cry anymore. Her body was trembling, trembling incessantly, trembling violently.

Yuhao, Yuhao, Yuhao… In her mind at this moment, only these two words echoed. Yuhao, Yuhao, my Yuhao, for my sake, you actually… you actually… What hidden injury? Why didn’t you tell me? Why didn’t you let me face this with you? Yuhao!

At that moment, Wang Dong'er's heart broke.

"Wow—" A mouthful of blood spurted from her mouth, a few drops of which landed right on the Acacia Heartbreak Red flower next to Huo Yuhao's cheek. The Acacia Heartbreak Red flower trembled slightly and strangely absorbed the few drops of blood. Then, a faint blush emanated from it and enveloped Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er respectively.

"Alright, since Huo Yuhao is alright, I should go now. Carrying him back was quite tiring." Ye Qi'an yawned and walked towards the inner courtyard on his own.

Wang Dong'er held Huo Yuhao, feeling the fluctuations of life energy within him. She slowly lowered her head and gently pressed her lips to Huo Yuhao's dry lips. Her lips were cool and slightly moist.

"Yuhao. From now on, I am your wife. I really like that contract, Yuhao. I love you." Wang Dong'er's voice was very soft, but even that soft voice had an indescribable impact on the ears of her companions.

Beibei, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou could no longer hold back their tears. Jiang Nannan threw herself into Xu Sanshi's arms, and Xiao Xiao also threw herself into He Caitou's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. Wang Dong'er, however, did not cry. In her beautiful eyes, there was only tenderness.

Unseen by everyone, Gu Yuena and Ye Xiyao slowly emerged from the Heavenly Punishment Space.

"Was the contract for that Acacia Heartbreak Red something you deliberately arranged for the two of them to enter into?" Gu Yuena asked, holding Ye Qi'an's hand.

"Of course, Huo Yuhao has already been targeted, so we don't need to win him over. Instead, we might as well throw him out to attract the attention of the God Realm. Perhaps that person in the God Realm is in trouble himself. We should just let things take their course," Ye Qi'an nodded and said.

Gu Yuena nodded slightly: "Is throwing Huo Yuhao out to attract the attention of the God Realm really a good idea?"

Ye Qi'an gripped Gu Yuena's hand tightly: "That was his own doing. It has nothing to do with us. He's just a pawn we can discard at any time."

Gu Yuena nodded slightly, agreeing with what Ye Qi'an said.

"Xi Yao, I'm leaving those team members to you. Although Shrek Academy's glory has nothing to do with us, they are indispensable for the plan to proceed smoothly," Ye Qi'an said, turning to Ye Xi Yao.

"Okay, brother." Ye Xiyao nodded and walked towards the inner courtyard training ground.

Ye Qi'an arrived at the void space of the Eye of Annihilation. He has now completed the forging of the left arm armor of the Six-Word Battle Armor. There is still a month and a half before the start of the competition. With his current cultivation level, he can forge the remaining battle armor parts.

However, Heavenly Forging requires communication with the power of heaven and earth, but the power of heaven and earth in Douluo Continent is currently in the hands of the Plane Master and the Plane Core. Tang Hao is fighting with the Plane Master for the plane, and the Blue Silver Emperor is fighting with the Life Core for power. If the power of heaven and earth is invoked, Ye Qi'an will inevitably be discovered.

"Elder Yi, is there any way to communicate with the power of heaven and earth without the knowledge of the plane's master?" Ye Qi'an asked in a deep voice.

Electrolux's voice echoed in the void: "There is a way, but it is extremely difficult and dangerous. You need to construct an extremely complex mental energy shielding array. This array must be based on your soul power and fused with various rare mental attribute materials in order to possibly deceive the plane lord's perception for a short period of time. However, once the array shows the slightest flaw, you will face the plane lord's wrathful backlash, with unimaginable consequences. But there is also a particularly easy method."

Electrox continued, "There is another particularly easy way, which is to accept my legacy. My legacy contains half a plane. If that half-plane is merged with your void space, although it may not be comparable to a normal plane, it will probably be very close. In that newly created plane, you will be the master of the plane."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qi'an's heart stirred. After a moment of thought, he said, "Elder Yi, I choose to accept your inheritance."

"My inheritance is both easy and simple. As long as you can refine this mark of the Necromancer Saint, you will be the Necromancer Saint of this generation. As for me, it's time to return to my plane."

Electrolux's voice echoed in the void for a long time, while a golden mark pattern quietly floated in front of Ye Qi'an.

"Elder Yi, are you leaving?" Ye Qi'an's voice carried a hint of doubt and reluctance.

In the void, the golden mark of the Necromancer Saint God emitted a mysterious light, as if awaiting his choice.

Electrolux's voice rang out again, tinged with a sense of vicissitude and relief: "Child, have you forgotten? I am but a fragment of divine consciousness. I was fortunate to meet you. My mission is complete now that you have inherited my legacy. It is time to return to my place. If you have fulfilled your ideals, you are welcome to come to the Holy Demon Continent to find me."

Ye Qi'an stared at the golden mark, his heart filled with mixed emotions. Electrolux's departure was inevitable, but he was still filled with reluctance.

"Elder Yi, thank you for everything you've done for me," Ye Qi'an said, nodding.

Electrolux's voice grew weaker: "Keep going, kid."

As Electrolux's voice completely disappeared, the void space fell into silence. Ye Qi'an took a deep breath, slowly reached out, and touched the golden mark. Instantly, a powerful and mysterious force surged into his body.

Ye Qi'an gritted his teeth and began to refine the mark of the Necromancer Saint God with all his might. In this process, Ye Qi'an seemed to enter a wonderful realm. His consciousness merged with the power in the mark, and he continued to comprehend the mysteries of the Necromancer Saint God's inheritance.

Time passed second by second, and Ye Qi'an's aura continued to change. The golden mark gradually merged with his body. If his power before was full of violence, then now his power had become more profound and restrained.

In the void, time seemed to lose its meaning. Ye Qi'an was immersed in refining the mark of the Necromancer Saint, and his perception of the outside world gradually blurred. The remaining power of Electrolux was also pushing Ye Qi'an's cultivation forward invisibly, while the eighth seal that sealed the essence of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline and his cultivation seemed to be on the verge of collapse, as if it could break through at any moment.

In this void, Ye Qi'an's aura grew increasingly deep and powerful. The fusion between the Necromancer's Holy Mark and him deepened, and the remaining power of Electrolux acted as a mysterious force, propelling his cultivation to rise steadily.

The eighth seal, which contained the essence of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline and cultivation, trembled under the impact of this power, as if it would collapse at any moment. Ye Qi'an could feel the enormous energy contained within it, and once it was broken through, it would bring about earth-shattering changes.

He tried his best to keep his mind stable, continuing to refine the mark with all his might while carefully guiding the power that was about to erupt. If not handled properly, this power might backfire on him, bringing unpredictable consequences.

Time passed slowly in this tense atmosphere. Finally, after a long period of torment, the mark of the Necromancer Saint God was completely integrated into Ye Qi'an's body. At the same time, the eighth seal also reached its limit.

A deafening roar echoed through the void, and the eighth seal shattered instantly. A surge of powerful Golden Dragon King bloodline essence and cultivation power erupted like a flood, rushing wildly into Ye Qi'an's body.

Ye Qi'an felt an indescribable force impacting his meridians and soul, especially the rapid expansion of his divine sense. When he felt his divine sense becoming somewhat out of control, he quickly adjusted his state and tried to guide this powerful divine sense force to gradually stabilize it. As time went by, his divine sense became more and more powerful and condensed.

Shrek Academy, Poseidon Island, Inner Courtyard.

"Boom—" A golden light swept across, like a giant dragon turning over, and blasted Dai Huabin away.

Ye Xiyao sheathed the golden dragon spear in her hand, staring at him with a sharp gaze, and said, "In your current state, you can't even beat me, yet you think you can beat my brother? Who gave you the courage to think that way?"

Dai Huabin gritted his teeth and got up from the ground. There was no anger in his eyes, only determination. He roared, "Again!" As he spoke, he activated his soul skill again and pounced towards Ye Xiyao.

Not only him, but apart from Ning Tian, ​​almost everyone on the Shrek Academy team, including Wu Feng, Xie Huan Yue, Zhou Si Chen, Cao Jin Xuan, Lan Su Su, the Lan Luo Luo sisters, and Zhu Lu, was covered in injuries.

Since Ye Qi'an and Gu Yuena went into seclusion, Ye Xiyao began to train these people in special ways. Her training method was simple and direct: real combat, one-on-one combat, and then team-to-team combat.

At first, the group was somewhat unconvinced, but after Ye Xiyao single-handedly defeated their entire team, which they considered to be well-coordinated, they were convinced.

In just two months, under Ye Xiyao's encouragement and the provocation of Ye Qi'an's strength, everyone's combat ability has increased dramatically, especially in terms of fighting spirit. Under Ye Xiyao's self-torture-like training, their cultivation has indeed progressed by leaps and bounds, and all aspects have improved extremely quickly.

It was almost time to depart. After defeating Dai Huabin once again, Ye Xiyao sheathed her Golden Dragon Spear and said in a deep voice, "That's enough for today. Go back and rest. We'll set off tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Dai Huabin lay on the ground, panting heavily. When he managed to sit up and looked at Ye Xiyao's retreating figure, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"Xi Yao".

A voice called out from afar. Ye Xiyao stopped and turned around. She saw a man and a woman walking quickly toward her.

"Brother, Sister Nana," Ye Xiyao said after recognizing the person who had come.

Yes, the visitors were Ye Qi'an and Gu Yuena. Not long ago, after Ye Qi'an perfected his battle armor with his own strength reaching the level of a Soul Douluo, he emerged from the fused void plane. With the help of the void plane's master, Ye Qi'an successfully created the remaining parts of the "Golden Scale Moon Na Amazing Swan" six-word battle armor and completed the fusion.

On the other side, Gu Yuena also gained a lot in the Heavenly Punishment Space. Her divine power stabilized at the peak of the first-level god. If she could withstand the baptism of the chaotic energy, she could have rushed towards the God King in one go.

"How are their preparations going?" Ye Qi'an asked, stroking Ye Xiyao's hair.

Ye Xiyao raised her chin slightly, a hint of pride in her eyes: "They have made great progress recently, with significant improvements in their combat skills and fighting spirit. I believe they will perform exceptionally well in the competition."

"That's good. You've worked hard these past two months. Let's see how much of a stir this competition will cause..."
