Douluo: The Dragon King's Descent of the Gods

Feeling conflicted, Miss Gu Yuena wanted to cheer herself up.

"Star River," she blinked her big, watery purple eyes, "you should tell me what the surprise is about the second martial soul, right? I've been looking forward to it for so long."

Upon hearing this, Meng Xinghe smiled knowingly.

He believed that Gu Yuena was looking forward to this surprise, but it was hard to say whether she was really that much looking forward to it.

Gu Yuena is the Silver Dragon King and also a half-body of the Dragon God. Her bloodline power originates from the Dragon God, the supreme god-king. In human terms, she is a truly noble bloodline and a truly sacred being.

Any bloodline below the level of a God-King is an impurity to Gu Yuena. Even the bloodline of a God-King needs to be compatible with her own bloodline to be of use.

Gu Yuena, who underwent a transformation and rebirth, has a second martial soul slot that is "a dragon without a soul." For details, please refer to the "ice without a soul" that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm gave to Huo Yuhao in the original novel.

When Meng Xinghe's divine bloodline merges with the "soulless dragon," a martial soul with divine bloodline will be born: the Sky Dragon.

However, to make the Sky Dragon Martial Soul as powerful as Gu Yuena's own Silver Dragon King Martial Soul, the amount of divine bloodline required would be enough to drain Meng Xinghe dry.

Therefore, this idea is fundamentally flawed, and Gu Yuena knows this. Her surprise is less an expectation and more a reflection of the trust she has developed over the years in Meng Xinghe.

"Here you go, the surprise I prepared for you is in him."

Meng Xinghe took out a document that he had prepared beforehand.

"Really? Let me see." Gu Yuena reached out and took it, glancing down at it.

A photo of a fair-skinned child with big eyes, long eyelashes, and flawless skin. If it weren't for the gender being listed as "male," Gu Yuena would have almost thought it was a girl.

His name is listed as "Tang Wulin". His martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. He is a nine-year-old Great Soul Master, a Level 3 Mecha Maker, and has signed an A-level genius contract with the Spirit Pagoda. He is a key talent cultivated by the Spirit Pagoda.

"You mean... my surprise... is with him?"

Gu Yuena flipped through the documents left and right, but couldn't find anything special. She could only look up at Meng Xinghe, her amethyst eyes wide open, as if to say:

"Where's the surprise? I don't see it!"

Seeing this, Meng Xinghe calmly said, "Here's a little hint: what's the name of Tang San's daughter?"

Ten thousand years ago, the daughter of the sea god rebuilt the destroyed Tang Clan, leaving a significant mark on history and thus earning her a place in the annals of time.

In the process of learning about human history, Gu Yuena naturally also learned about the other party's name.

"Tang San's daughter? Her name is Tang Wutong, what's wrong?"

"Wait a minute..." She suddenly realized something and connected it to many other things.

"Tang Wutong, Tang Wulin, they both have the surname Tang, and the middle character is Wu... I see, Tang Wulin is Tang San's son."

"But what does this have to do with my surprise? I have no interest in the bloodline of the Sea God."

This last sentence made Meng Xinghe wipe his sweat.

Even if you drain Tang Wulin's blood to create a second martial soul using the bloodline of the Sea God, the resulting Ocean Dragon martial soul cannot become as powerful as the Silver Dragon King martial soul.

Furthermore, extracting Tang Wulin's blood to condense a second martial soul possessing the bloodline of the Sea God...

What kind of image do I have in your heart? A cunning old fox? Or a ruthless one? The me you think I am would actually do something like killing an innocent child.

I must clarify that I am not that kind of person; I would never do such an inhuman thing.

"No, what are you thinking?" Meng Xinghe was quite speechless, and his tone became very serious.

"Using the bloodline of the Sea God to condense a martial soul, even if you don't mind, I still find it disgusting."

"Let me put it this way, before the God Realm was swept away by the spacetime turbulence, a great chaos occurred. Your twin brother took the opportunity to bewitch the gods, broke the seal, and wreaked havoc in the God Realm. In the end, he was killed by the gods using the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms."

"Before he died, your brother fused his divine core with the newborn Tang Wulin, wanting to take revenge on Tang San and Xiao Wu for the pain of losing his son."

That Golden Dragon King who only knows how to use brute force and has no brains at all, he really is capable of doing such a thing... Gu Yuena thought to herself.

She inherited the Dragon God's creative power, elemental power, and reason and wisdom, while her twin brother, the Golden Dragon King "Gu Riyao," inherited the Dragon God's destructive power, strength, and madness and destructive nature.

In terms of realm, they are all first-level gods, yet they all possess strength comparable to a god-king.

Therefore, given the great chaos that occurred in the divine realm, the Golden Dragon King, having broken the seal, indeed possessed the power to wreak havoc upon the divine realm.

(The Golden Dragon King silently gave a thumbs up. If the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms hadn't instantly killed him, the God Realm would have been destroyed long ago under the combined attack of him and the spacetime turbulence.)

Gu Yuena displayed her intelligence, saying, "I think I understand."

"Tang San sealed the Golden Dragon King Divine Core within Tang Wulin's body, but the divine power within the core would be drawn to the divine power of the God Realm itself. Therefore, Tang San sent Tang Wulin to Douluo Continent, where there is no divine power and it would not trigger the power within the core."

Her purple eyes continued to gleam with wisdom as she murmured to herself:

"I think I now understand why Tang Wulin wasn't born with full soul power. Although the Golden Dragon King's divine core was sealed, it still suppressed the Sea God's bloodline within him, which indirectly affected his talent."

"There's just one thing I don't understand. With the Golden Dragon King's Divine Core suppressing the Sea God's bloodline, Tang Wulin's awakened Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is just ordinary Blue Silver Grass. He shouldn't have awakened a level seven innate companion soul power."

These speculations are based on the premise that Tang Wulin is alive and exists in this era.

Gu Yuena believed in her own wisdom, and even if her speculation wasn't the truth, it was probably pretty close.

As Wisdom's big eyes returned to normal, Gu Yuena became excited, but also somewhat worried.

The surprise Meng Xinghe had prepared for himself was actually the Golden Dragon King Divine Core, which was both surprising and delightful.

She is half of the Dragon God. If she can absorb the Golden Dragon King's divine core and transform it into her second martial soul, the Golden Dragon King, then the restoration of the Dragon God's glory will be just around the corner.

but……

The Golden Dragon King was on par with her. Although she now only had a divine core left, she had also transformed into a human and lost her peak power.

As she absorbs the divine core, the destructive and insane power of the Golden Dragon King will erode her reason and wisdom. Eventually, she will become as insane as the Golden Dragon King, turning into a killing machine that only knows destruction and devastation.

Meng Xinghe immediately saw what Gu Yuena was worried about, walked over, patted her shoulder, and comforted her:

"Don't worry, Tang San placed eighteen seals inside Tang Wulin's body, so the surprise I prepared for you is divided into eighteen parts."

"You don't need to absorb all the power of the divine core at once. You only need to absorb the essence of the Golden Dragon King's original power contained in one of the seals at regular intervals. Once the eighteen seals are absorbed, you will have the complete Golden Dragon King Martial Soul and nine Golden Dragon King bloodline soul rings."
