Douluo Continent II: The Dragon King Suppresses the World!

On the ruins of the war-torn Sun Moon Empire, Ye Qi'an stood proudly, his gaze fixed on the remains of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, cleaved in two by the Nine Heavens Dragon Roar. A mocking smile played on his lips as he softly said:

"The Purple Emperor Annihilates the Heavenly Dragon? Heh, that will never happen again."

Having said that, he was about to turn and leave when he suddenly noticed that the remains of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon were emitting a strange and mysterious light. At the site of the cleavage, there seemed to be an unfathomable power quietly surging, as if it were resisting its predetermined fate.

Ye Qi'an instantly became alert. He gripped the Nine Heavens Dragon Roar sword tightly with his long and powerful hand, the blade trembling slightly as if it were on guard along with its master.

Just then, a crystal-clear dragon pill slowly emerged from the light. The dragon pill was like the most brilliant star in the universe, with nebulae flowing inside, as if it contained terrifying energy capable of destroying the world.

Ye Qi'an stared at the dragon core, muttering, "The dragon core of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon?"

With a hint of curiosity and determination, he raised his hand and gently summoned the Dragon Pill, which landed steadily in his palm like a docile sprite. The moment they made contact, the surging energy rushed into his body like a raging tide, flowing wildly down his arm.

Ye Qi'an frowned slightly. His incomparably powerful cultivation erupted instantly, like a towering mountain, forcibly suppressing this energy. His gaze was fixed on the dragon pill in his palm. Suddenly, a strange and intense feeling surged in his heart.

Without the slightest hesitation, he channeled the vast, ocean-like divine power within his body, slowly pouring it into the dragon core like a gentle stream. As the divine power continued to flow in, the dragon core shone brightly, its light as dazzling as the blazing sun, slowly forming a vortex gate radiating a deep purple light before him.

Ye Qi'an took a deep breath, the aura of which seemed to stir the surrounding air. He stepped resolutely into the secret realm, and as soon as he entered, an ancient and powerful aura rushed towards him like a surging wave.

Looking out, a strange and extraordinary scene unfolded before my eyes. In the sky, stars of various colors shimmered like jewels embedded in the celestial canopy, their mysterious brilliance shining through. Beneath my feet lay an endless ocean of spiritual plants, which emitted a dazzling array of colors, including many rare species that had long since disappeared from the outside world.

A hint of surprise and greed flashed in Ye Qi'an's eyes. He smiled and said, "There are quite a few good things here, but now they're all mine."

After saying that, he flashed, like a streak of light traversing the sea of ​​spiritual plants. His storage ring shimmered with a faint light, like a greedy beast, constantly taking in those rare spiritual plants one by one.

As he ventured deeper into the secret realm, the surrounding air grew increasingly heavy, as if an invisible hand was compressing the space. A powerful pressure emanated from ahead.

Ye Qian stopped abruptly, his gaze sweeping across his surroundings like a sharp sword. Ahead lay a hazy expanse of purple mist, which resembled a mysterious, colossal beast, emanating a dangerous aura.

Ye Qi'an snorted coldly and said, "Disperse!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised the Nine Heavens Dragon Roar, pouring all his divine power into it, and then swung his sword with force. An extremely sharp sword aura, carrying boundless divine power, roared towards the purple mist area like a giant dragon.

However, the purple mist only swayed slightly a few times and did not disperse as he expected. Instead, it seemed to be completely enraged and began to churn and surge rapidly, from which faint, deep, and terrifying roars could be heard.

Ye Qi'an frowned deeply. He knew clearly that this purple mist was no ordinary thing, and dared not be careless in the slightest. He poured his divine power into the Nine Heavens Dragon Roar, and the sword shone brightly. The dragon patterns on it seemed to come alive, eager to fight. He swung the sword again, this time unleashing several sword energies in succession. These sword energies, like an interwoven spider web, enveloped the purple mist.

When attacked, the purple mist slowly changed shape, transforming into small purple dragons that lunged at Ye Qi'an with bared fangs and claws, as if they wanted to devour him alive.

Ye Qi'an snorted coldly. His figure moved nimbly through the dragons like a ghost, his long sword constantly waving. Each swing accurately cut down a purple mist dragon, but the purple mist dragons seemed endless, constantly surging out from the purple mist like waves.

Ye Qi'an cursed under his breath, "Damn it." He knew in his heart that continuing to fight like this was not a good idea. Although his divine power was incomparably strong, it could not withstand such endless consumption.

As he continued to wield his longsword to fend off the relentless onslaught of the purple mist dragons, he quickly pondered a strategy. His gaze inadvertently swept over the dragon core floating above him, and a sudden thought struck him.

He realized that this Dragon Pill was originally transformed from the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, and perhaps it had some mysterious and close connection with this purple mist, which could very well be the key to breaking the deadlock.

Without further hesitation, he swiftly summoned the Dragon Pill back into his hand and then poured all his divine power into it. As the Dragon Pill received this immense divine power, its light shone even brighter. From within its swirling nebula-like interior, the faint sound of a dragon's roar seemed to echo the Purple Radiance Annihilation Dragon formed from the purple mist.

Seizing the opportunity, Ye Qi'an shouted and hurled the Dragon Pill towards the purple mist. The Dragon Pill, radiating dazzling light, shot into the purple mist like a falling star.

In an instant, the purple mist seemed to have met its nemesis, twisting wildly. The purple mist dragons also lost their vitality and vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed.

As the purple mist gradually dissipated, a huge purple dragon skeleton was revealed behind it. The dragon skeleton was several meters tall, and even after being eroded by the long years, it still exuded a majestic and mysterious aura. The dragon patterns on the dragon skeleton were clearly visible, as if telling the story of its past power and glory.

Upon seeing the dragon bones, Ye Qi'an's eyes were filled with excitement and anticipation. He murmured to himself, "Found it! The dragon bones of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon. Na'er's battle armor needs to be fused with the dragon bones to be upgraded to divine armor."

Ye Qi'an approached the enormous purple dragon bone. He reached out and gently touched it, feeling the powerful energy contained within. He knew that extracting the dragon bone intact and bringing it back for Gu Yuena to fuse with would not be easy, and no one could be sure if the remnant soul of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon existed here. If there was a remnant soul, it would inevitably bring great trouble.

He paced slowly around the dragon bone, his brow furrowed, pondering the best way to collect it. After a moment, Ye Qi'an decided to first set up a protective barrier to prevent any unknown dangers from interfering during the refining process. He moved his hands, his divine power weaving around him like threads, and a layer of pale golden light gradually formed, enveloping the dragon bone.

Then, Ye Qi'an sat cross-legged and slowly channeled his divine power into the dragon bone. Initially, the dragon bone seemed to resist this external force, with a powerful backlash coming from it. However, Ye Qi'an's divine power flowed continuously, like a surging river, gradually suppressing the dragon bone's resistance. As the divine power penetrated deeper, the dragon patterns on the dragon bone began to shimmer with a dark purple light, merging with Ye Qi'an's divine power.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Qi'an had a new plan: "Forget it, I'll just absorb all the power of this secret realm into the dragon bones of the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, and then refine the entire dragon bone into a dragon pearl."

Having made up his mind, he focused on absorbing the power of the secret realm. He mobilized all his divine power, forming a massive vortex, like a black hole in the universe, drawing in the starlight and energy of the surrounding spiritual plant ocean, continuously pouring it into the dragon bones. The dragon bones' eerie purple light grew stronger, like a bottomless abyss, greedily devouring all energy. As energy continued to pour in, wondrous changes began to occur within the dragon bones; the originally solid skeletal structure gradually became more dynamic, as if life was being nurtured within it.

After absorbing a large amount of energy from the secret realm, the dragon bone began to slowly shrink, its shape gradually becoming rounder, with dragon patterns flowing and shimmering on its surface, much like a nebula swirling on the surface of a sphere. Ye Qi'an increased his divine power output, forcing every last bit of energy into the dragon bone.

A melodious dragon roar echoed throughout the secret realm, and the Dragon Pearl finally took shape. At this moment, the Dragon Pearl radiated an aura of world-destroying power. Ye Qi'an reached out and grasped it, feeling the surging power and boundless vitality within. He removed the protective barriers and looked around. The secret realm had become dilapidated due to the massive draining of its energy, losing its former glory.

"The damaged secret realm can be devoured by the Divine Dragon Realm, so let's pack it up and take it with us."

Ye Qi'an carefully put away the Dragon Ball, and its immense divine power instantly spread to every corner of the secret realm, beginning to subdue the dilapidated realm.

A strange fluctuation arose around the secret realm, and the space gradually distorted and deformed. Under the pull of his powerful divine power, the entire secret realm slowly shrank and finally turned into a stream of light that he captured in his palm.

Reappearing on the ruins, Ye Qi'an slightly raised his hand, and large and small black holes appeared in the sky. Powerful suction emanated from the holes, transferring all the remaining soul beasts on Douluo Continent into the subordinate planes of the Divine Dragon Realm.

In the far north, the Star Dou Great Forest, and the sea, all the soul beasts, whether weak or strong, were transferred without exception. However, the only one Ye Qi'an did not transfer was the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan in the sea. The reason was simple: the Demon Soul Great White Shark had always worshipped the Sea God, almost to the point of obsession. Was there really any need to transfer such a soul beast?

It would be better to sacrifice them along with Seagod Island and those evil soul masters, thereby summoning the Abyss Plane and the Crimson Plane to descend. At that time, Seagod Island will become the main battlefield. The Abyss Saint King and the Crimson Mother, two plane lords who are not even God Kings, will inevitably be unable to withstand the siege of our four God Kings and many god-level powerhouses.

"Qian Renxue, how's it going over there?" Ye Qi'an asked telepathically.

Qian Renxue's voice rang in Ye Qi'an's mind: "The progress is going smoothly. Most of the evil soul masters have been captured. Only a small number of evil soul masters are still outside. My mother and her newly acquired divine servants are searching. They should be captured soon."

"Divine servant? When did you take in a divine servant, senior?" Ye Qi'an asked curiously.

Qian Renxue chuckled and said, "You probably know that person too; he's the Supreme Leader of the Holy Spirit Sect."

"Ye Xishui? That woman is insane. Unless your mother brainwashed her and made her forget everything," Ye Qi'an said in a deep voice.

Qian Renxue replied, "That's right. After my mother explored her memories, she discovered Ye Xishui's previous crazy behavior. But that woman was also pitiful. It seems that we see her past self in Ye Xishui. As you know, my mother used her divine power to forcibly erase those unbearable memories from her. Now she is like a blank sheet of paper, and my mother will try her best to teach her."

"I naturally trust you to handle things, senior. I believe your mother can also handle things well. If Ye Xishui performs well, I might be willing to promise her a divine position. By the way, what about the others in the Holy Spirit Cult?" Ye Qi'an said in a deep voice.

"The elders of the Holy Spirit Cult, as well as that Limit Douluo, rose up in resistance and were naturally killed on the spot. After all, your sacrificial formation doesn't necessarily require living people; the souls of the dead can also be used," Qian Renxue said.

Ye Qi'an nodded slightly, a ruthless glint in his eyes: "That's good. Those guys have committed numerous evils and deserved their fate long ago. However, the Holy Spirit Cult has been spreading for many years, and it's hard to guarantee that there aren't any who have slipped through the net and are hiding in the shadows. We still need to conduct a thorough investigation afterward and absolutely cannot let them have another chance to cause trouble."

Qian Renxue replied, "That's natural, that's exactly what Mother intended as well. Although we've captured most of the evil soul masters, no one knows if there are any remnants hiding in some nook or cranny. Once we've thoroughly searched out these remaining evil soul masters, we'll organize a team to conduct a thorough investigation of every corner of Douluo Continent, especially those areas where the Holy Spirit Cult was once active. We'll dig three feet into the ground and eradicate any hidden dangers at their root."

After thinking for a moment, Ye Qi'an said, "Well, there's also the matter of sacrifice. Although it's possible to use the souls of the dead, it's never as effective as using the souls of the living. We need to make preparations in advance to prevent any unforeseen circumstances. I need to go back to the Divine Dragon Realm to find Na'er. You guys need to be careful."

Qian Renxue chimed in, "Yes, improving strength is the key. You should make the arrangements as soon as possible. I'll also speed things up here and try to resolve the matter of the Evil Soul Master as soon as possible. Then we can prepare together for the arrival of the Abyss Plane and the Crimson Plane. This great battle concerns the Divine Dragon Realm and the Douluo Continent, and we can't afford to be careless."

"Alright, it's settled then. We'll stay in touch." After Ye Qi'an finished speaking, his divine power surged again, and his figure instantly transformed into a streak of light, speeding towards the Divine Dragon Realm. He disappeared into the sky shortly afterward.

Qian Renxue also put aside her thoughts and used her powerful divine sense to search for the remaining evil soul masters.
