Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 150 The Dragon God's Exterminator

A fierce aura was already spreading from behind the metal door.

A muffled thud came from the cave.

"Bang, bang, bang—" Amidst the booming sounds, a massive figure gradually appeared in Gu You's sight.

Its entire body is covered with a layer of purplish-black scales. It is over fifteen meters long and weighs at least ten thousand kilograms. It walks on all fours and has a huge tail. Every step it takes makes the metal ground tremble.

At first glance, it looks like a giant lizard, but upon closer inspection, you'll find that its head is much larger than that of a typical lizard, and it has two curved horns extending upwards from its head.

Demon Lizard Dragon...

Gu You was shocked. He had encountered thousand-year-old demonic lizard dragons in the previous levels, but to be honest, none of them had shocked him. This one was ten thousand years old!

This type of spirit beast is only recorded in some ancient texts. In ancient times, the Demon Lizard Dragon was also an extremely powerful spirit beast, belonging to the Earth Dragon category. It had a huge body, incredible speed, and was skilled in controlling dark elements. Moreover, it was an extremely ferocious spirit beast. Even if it wasn't for food, it would often indiscriminately kill other spirit beasts. It was highly aggressive and, like the Human-Faced Demon Spider, belonged to the category that was ostracized in the spirit beast world.

Legend has it that the Demon Lizard Dragon was nearly banished from the dragon race due to its brutality, its cultivation level restricted by heaven and earth to below ten thousand years. This is because the destruction a Demon Lizard Dragon could cause to its surrounding environment and other spirit beasts once it reached ten thousand years of age would be unimaginable.

A fierce aura filled the air, and the Demon Lizard Dragon suddenly raised its head and let out a sharp cry.

The piercing sound had a demonic quality to it, and Xie Xie and Xu Lizhi, whose mental strength was relatively weak, turned pale.

Gu You pondered for a moment; the ten-thousand-year-old Demon Lizard Dragon was truly a miracle. It was suitable for offensive and agile-type Soul Masters, but he didn't plan to let Yuanen Yehui absorb this Soul Ring. After they left, he would buy Yuanen a thousand-year-old Demon Lizard Dragon Soul Spirit, and perhaps see if there were suitable ten-thousand-year-old Soul Spirits in later levels.

Gu You speculated that the demonic lizard dragon before him might possess the ultimate dark attribute, and had already begun to grow real dragon horns, truly showing a tendency to transform into a dragon. If this level of growth was considered, then the demonic lizard dragon before him had definitely broken through the limitations of heaven and earth, and once it grew up, its destructive power would be unpredictable.

In short, although this kind of soul beast is brutal, Gu You is confident that he can successfully tame it and turn it into a docile dragon baby.

The Dragon God's Soul Collapse Domain began to recede. Gu You could control this domain on his own. As long as he allowed it, entering this domain would not cause any substantial mental harm.

However, this field has a downside: it obstructs the view. After use, the surrounding landscape turns purple, making it impossible for people with poor eyesight to see clearly.

Gu You charged toward the Demon Lizard Dragon, his Purple Emperor Terror Claws beginning to lengthen and stretch, the tips of his dragon claws reaching a terrifying ten centimeters in length, radiating bursts of cold light, seemingly able to ignore all defenses.

The Demon Lizard Dragon's temper could be described as absolutely fiery. When Gu You charged at it, it took it as a provocation. With a screech, its massive tail slammed against the ground, and it seemed to take flight, charging straight at Gu You.

Its enormous size and the astonishing speed it reaches when it charges are truly breathtaking.

Behind the Demon Lizard Dragon, six gill-like wings spread out, allowing it to hover in the air. Its whipping tail stirred up the airflow, and the surrounding air seemed to darken instantly. In just a moment, it was in front of Gu You, its huge mouth opening to bite him.

"hold head high--"

Just then, a deep dragon roar erupted. Yuan Enyehui and Le Zhengyu, who were watching the battle closely, saw Gu You's whole body flash with purple-gold light, and his body seemed to grow taller in the air, with a purple-gold halo appearing.

The once arrogant and domineering Demon Lizard Dragon seemed to freeze in mid-air the moment the dragon roar rang out. Then, to everyone's astonishment, its six wings seemed to lose their power, and its massive body plummeted from the sky, crashing directly to the ground with a thud.

The dragon god's former banisher, how could it not be afraid when facing yet another dragon god...?

Everyone was instantly thrown into a daze. Gu You, who had been leaping into the air, descended from the sky, his purple-gold claws flashing with light. With a soft thud, he plunged his claws into the back of the ten-thousand-year-old demonic lizard dragon's head, until his entire arm was buried inside.

The massive body of the Demon Lizard Dragon convulsed violently, but it didn't last long before it came to a standstill.

A black soul flew out from its massive body; it was a small, demonic lizard dragon, its entire body trembling uncontrollably.

Gu You looked down at it, "Why don't you dare look me in the eye?"

The Demon Lizard Dragon only managed to utter a faint, hoarse sound.

Gu You closed his eyes. "From this day forward, you will no longer be the exterminator. The former Dragon God is dead, and I will be the new one... Order changes, all things change. Are you willing to follow me? To become a god?"

His voice grew softer and softer until it could only be heard by the Demon Lizard Dragon.

hiss~

The Demon Lizard Dragon roared loudly, its body emanating bursts of black energy. Its eyes were filled with madness; it was willing to follow Gu You.

Gu You stored it in his spiritual world, while adding some restrictions to the world in his mind. He forbade the Demon Lizard Dragon from killing soul beasts indiscriminately, but it could do whatever it wanted. It also had the responsibility of protecting the Tree of Life.

Although he can resurrect slain soul beasts in his mental world, the Demon Lizard Dragon is an extremely ferocious beast. It's capable of killing even its own kind, so ignoring it is unacceptable, as each resurrected soul beast wastes his power. He'll release it again when the time truly comes to kill.

……

The fiftieth and sixtieth floors share the same large door. You can directly attack floors above your level.

The metal door slowly opened, and this time, Gu You did not sense any fierce aura.

Just then, a scent seemed to waft through the air, a scent that felt like air after it had been exposed to the sun—refreshing yet with a peculiar dryness.

Gu You's expression changed, and in the next instant, a deep rumble of thunder suddenly rang out, and a bolt of lightning struck him and everything around him almost instantly.

"Boom—" Lightning flashed throughout the entire hall. In an instant, the lightning flowed, and the powerful explosive force caused a burst of light to ripple across Gu You's body. He also let out a muffled groan, feeling a bit numb all over.

However, immediately after Gu You's four Qi and Blood Soul Rings rose from his feet, the Qi and Blood in the air surged, drawing in everyone present. At the same time, the second Qi and Blood Soul Ring lit up.

Purple-Gold Dragon Armor!

Purple scales covered Gu You's entire body, and the anesthesia disappeared immediately afterward.
