Douluo: The Holy Radiance of the Dragon King

Chapter 357 Learning from the Strengths of Others to Revitalize the Original Body, Lan Fuzi Returns, and the Two Major Overlords of the Near Sea Arrive Together

From the moment of its birth, Devil Island has been divided into two distinct zones due to its energy: a destructive purple aura and a life-giving green light.

Both have extremely high energy levels. Although they have been continuously weakened over thousands of years due to the influence of different planes, they still give people a sense of divine power.

The Seven Old Demons, who came from Shrek Academy, were once the rulers of this place, so the island is considered Shrek Academy's "property".

However, Shrek Academy had already fled, and they couldn't possibly carry the giant ocean liner on the island. When the Shen family controlled the Northern Navy Legion, they diligently protected this place, but instead, they blocked the spread of information.

And all of this has now made things convenient for someone.

"Like the legendary fisherman who only bites when he's willing, I'm fishing with my life energy, but I haven't seen a single fish take the bait."

Feng Zaixing sat upright for almost half an hour without catching anything. He held a fishing rod in one hand and an ancient book in the other. His face remained calm, but he was inwardly puzzled.

Could it be that no sea fish dare to approach Devil's Island year-round? I remember when I encountered Harosa at sea years ago, there were fish all around.

The Golden Dragon King's soul resided in the deepest part of the spiritual space, its vertical pupils narrowed to slits, and it chuckled eerily, "Kid, you're not trying to fish, are you? Who are you trying to lure here this time? The Demon Emperor has already been killed by you."

"How can you talk like that? I just wanted to experience the joy of fishing and see if there were any of the most ferocious sea monsters to practice on."

Feng Zaixing remained calm even after his thoughts were seen through, and responded indifferently.

Among the five god-kings of the divine realm, the one with the least connection to him is the Asura God. However, the Asura God's killing aura can theoretically be cultivated by anyone. For example, the Killing God Domain from 20,000 years ago could be obtained simply by passing through the Hell Road in the Killing City.

In theory, only those who have killed enough people and can control the killing energy within their martial soul are qualified to become the successor of the Asura. In other words, the more people a person kills, the greater their chance of becoming the Asura God.

Devil Island is an excellent place to comprehend life and the power of destruction, but breaking through to the quasi-god level is not something that can be accomplished in a day, and organizing the cultivation system above the Gold-level Awakening level also takes time. Feng Zaixing uses himself as a testing ground for the Body Sect's cultivation system, and has many ideas that he wants to verify on himself.

The first question is, what should be called the awakening of the main body martial soul above the gold level?

Feng Zaixing felt it necessary to brainstorm: "Na'er, Xiaoye, what do you think would be a suitable name for someone above the Gold level Awakening?"

"Huh?" Na'er was taken aback by the question. She put down the Demon Whale drink she was drinking and blinked her big eyes, saying, "Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold—these names are based on the colors of the second and third awakenings. Senior brother, what color figure do you think your third awakening will result in?"

As a direct descendant of the Body Sect, Na'er had read through the sect's historical records, which explained the reasons why the sect's predecessors believed in this division: firstly, it was simple, and secondly, it was intuitive.

Feng Zaixing frankly stated, "Any color is fine, as long as I want it. It can be a pure white, or..."

A breathtaking display of color.

"These are the two possibilities I deduced over many years using my Divine Origin Realm spiritual power. The former is that all paths return to one and become natural, while the latter is to take the path of brilliance to its extreme. It's hard to say which is better or worse; both are the Great Path to Heaven."

"Of course, both of these paths have a prerequisite: they require a divine foundation to bear that kind of unparalleled explosive power. That way, there will be no side effects, and one can even better control their abilities. At least that's how it should be for me."

Secondary awakening is the strongest asset for a Soul Master with a primary Martial Soul to stand in the world. Black Iron level awakening can instantly increase attack power by 30%, Bronze level by 60%, Silver level by 100%, and Gold level by up to 300%.

According to Feng Zaixing's deduction, this awakening above the gold level can instantly increase the attack power by more than five times.

The effects of force are mutual. While unleashing a powerful attack, the Soul Master's body will also bear corresponding enormous pressure. Otherwise, the Gold-level Awakening would not have been exclusive to the Body Sect Master ten thousand years ago, and even the Body Sect Master might not have been able to master it generation after generation.

According to Feng Zaixing's deduction, for those above the Gold level, non-spiritual soul masters need to temper their physical bodies to the God level, while spiritual soul masters need to reach the Divine Origin Realm.

The so-called "no side effects" takes into account the huge consumption after the second and third awakenings, because the gold-level awakening not only consumes a lot of soul power when used, but also consumes life force over time.

Awakening at the Gold level is too costly and requires a lot of time and energy. If the issue of the cost of use isn't resolved, wouldn't awakenings above the Gold level become life-extinct techniques that only last a few uses? The few and far between in the Body Sect can't withstand such a mess.

Because of his past experience of frequently using secret techniques to enhance his combat power, Feng Zaixing now has a deep understanding of "using life-saving techniques to boost combat power".

"Force" is a sensitive concept, and I want to provide a safety net for those who come after me.

Thanks to his simultaneous role as the master of the War God Temple and the honorary master of the Spirit Pagoda, all the core cultivation materials of the two major forces were made available to him. Over the years, he often discussed cultivation and sparred with experts at the Limit Douluo level, learning from their strengths and finally completing the conception of the theoretical framework, only lacking the final implementation.

"Now that you're confident, senior brother, which path do you plan to take?"

Na'er knew long ago that her senior brother was a man of deep thought, placing responsibility above all else—the responsibility of the Body Sect, the responsibility of being a descendant of the Blood God Legion, and many other things. Among these, the revival of the Body Sect was his long-cherished wish.

Yuan Enhui's beautiful eyes also turned to Feng Zaixing with attention; she never doubted the teacher's talent.

"As for me, if I were to complete my awakening now, I could only take the latter path, because what I have learned is too much and too profound, and I am not yet able to summarize it all into one."

Feng Zaixing did not hide his thoughts from his two closest confidantes. He gestured for the two women to come closer with his eyes, and then slowly said, "When I was doing my research, I intentionally observed the cultivation systems of various quasi-god level experts, especially senior quasi-god level experts. Among them, Guan Yue's cultivation method of 'extremely brilliant sublimation of foundation' and the Thousand Ancient Family's Unyielding Staff Technique is the most to my liking. I have also studied the paths of Chen Xinjie, Yun Ming, and even Halosa and the Ghost Emperor, but most of them rely on external things, which is not very suitable for the Body Sect's concept of inward development."

Feng Zaixing smiled and said, "The paths of the other four can also be used as a reference. For example, they can refine their martial souls into divine artifacts, or collect the power of faith to forge a divine position or a pure martial soul. Even if they only have half of it, they can still make it shine to the fullest."

"When I was peering into the realm of awakening beyond the Gold level, I had a feeling that this was an ability that transcended the limitations of different planes. Once this ability is systematically passed down, the Body Sect may be able to use it to forcibly break through the God-level barrier whenever a Quasi-God-level expert appears in the future, unleashing a short period of God-level combat power with no or very few side effects, and assisting in the breakthrough."

"Just like battle armor, a four-word battle armor can give a titled Douluo strength comparable to a Limit Douluo, thus allowing geniuses to experience the Limit Douluo realm earlier. As long as a top genius has enough talent and is not distracted, having a four-word battle armor gives them a great chance to become a Limit Douluo. Well, the negative example is Teacher Muye."

"So powerful?" "It's like using a god-level foundation to forcibly break through an insurmountable barrier."

The two women were astonished; the method Feng Zaixing had used was simply defying the heavens.

Feng Zaixing calmly said, "Actually, I also thought about referring to the Haotian Sect's Ring-Detonation Secret Technique. Tang Chen truly deserves to be called a peerless genius. He was able to create this ability 20,000 years ago. Unfortunately, there are very few Soul Masters in this era who can absorb real Soul Rings. Activating the Ring-Detonation Secret Technique may affect the Soul Spirit and damage its foundation."

"Therefore, the Haotian Sect members no longer dare to use this ultimate technique, which is an important reason for their decline. On the contrary, the Holy Spirit Sect's group of reckless madmen dare to use the Ring-Exploding Secret Technique. I don't know where they learned it from."

"The path of exploding spirit rings is not limited to the Clear Sky Hammer; the original spirit can unleash even greater power. It's a pity that if I had been born ten thousand years earlier, I might have been able to research something about this path. The current environment doesn't allow it anymore. My own spirit rings are all passed down from spirits, so their essence is already different."

As he spoke, he glanced at Yuanen Yehui with a smile. She was the only person among them who possessed a primordial soul ring, a gift from their ancestors.

Yuan Enhui thought Feng Zaixing wanted her to contribute to the cause of the Body Sect, so she proactively extended her fair hand with a "I'm ready" expression: "Teacher, if needed, this disciple is willing to cooperate with you!"

"We'll talk about it later if needed. There's no need for it now. I don't want to hold a funeral for my disciple yet." Feng Zaixing's lips twitched slightly. "Don't you think about how old your soul ring is? Once it explodes, your body simply can't withstand it."

Even when Tang San was fighting, he didn't dare to destroy a million-year soul ring. Little Ye Hui, you're incredibly brave, surpassing even the Sea God.

Seriously speaking, Titan's million-year soul ring probably has more energy than the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's.

"Sigh~" Yuan Enhui lowered her head in shame, feeling ashamed.

"Alright, if you have time, hurry up and temper your physical bodies to the divine level. The entire Body Sect is full of top geniuses, yet only my senior brother and I have cultivated the flawless golden body. Is this acceptable? Isn't this a betrayal of the ancestors of the Body Sect?"

Feng Zaixing spoke emotionally, his voice filled with anguish: "Even if not all geniuses of a sect become gods, they should at least be close to being gods. Now is the best of times. I have a premonition that in the near future, after our plane has absorbed part of the primordial energy of the Abyss Plane, another vacancy for a god-level powerhouse will be created."

"There will be more in the future."

Na'er looked solemn, her usual playful mood gone: "Don't underestimate me, I'm very close to the realm of flawless golden body; I'm not the incompetent Gu Yue, I have the talent and ability to refine my physical body."

Yuan Enhui nodded like a chick pecking at rice, her full breasts heaving up and down: "I admit that I am not as fast as Gu Yue in terms of cultivation speed, but when it comes to tempering the body, I can pin her against the wall with one hand."

Feng Zaixing wanted to say that Gu Yue was originally a god, but because she transformed into a human, her physical body and spiritual power panel were washed away. But at this moment, the spiritual power surrounding her suddenly sensed an uninvited guest.

"Boss, I've brought the bad guys from the ocean spirit beasts to you!"

In the distance, a deep-sea whale swam rapidly at a speed completely disproportionate to its size. When it was less than a kilometer away from Devil Island, it leaped into the air, its form transforming into the alluring figure of Lan Fuzi.

"What did you bring me?" Upon seeing Lan Fuzi, Feng Zaixing's eyes twitched uncontrollably.

"Hehe, there's quite a lot, take a look." Lan Fuzi smiled as if to take credit, pointing to different directions of the ocean with both hands.

A man and two women looked in the direction of her slender, white fingers and saw two patches of sea bubbling and gurgling. To the left, there was a white shark's dorsal fin, while to the right, the sea was completely dyed scarlet, with countless black orcas.

Both sea surfaces were filled with the powerful fluctuations of soul beasts over 100,000 years old.

"A swarm of Demonic Great White Sharks, and a swarm of Evil Orcas?!"
