Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 373 The Eight Extraordinary Meridians

Nighttime, inside the Xingluo Hotel.

"How is it? Is Gu Yue still unwilling to come out?" Nan Fusheng asked Yuan Enhui.

Yuan Enhui shook her head and sighed, "Yes. I've already told her that we're leaving together tomorrow, and she said she knows."

However, whenever I brought up Tang Wulin, her mood clearly changed. I wonder what exactly happened between the two of them?

Although Tang Wulin and Gu Yue's relationship with each other was sometimes close and sometimes distant in Douluo Continent, they could still be considered partners who fought side by side.

But ever since arriving on the Star Luo Continent, Gu Yue seems to have become a different person. Her attitude towards Tang Wulin has suddenly become cold.

Nan Fusheng also sighed and said, "This is a problem between them. Let's just wait and see."

Then, Nan Fusheng turned his gaze to Xu Xiaoyan and Fors. Before Nan Fusheng could ask any questions, Xu Xiaoyan took the initiative to say, "Na'er is willing to communicate with us and is also willing to come out."

But she became somewhat silent when we brought up the topic of the captain. However, she didn't react much to the idea of ​​visiting him and expressed her willingness to go see him.

"Really?" Nan Fusheng nodded. "Then everyone should go and rest. We're taking a cruise back tomorrow."

"it is good."

……

The next morning.

On the ship, the Shrek Academy students had already boarded the cruise ship. Although Dai Yun'er seemed to have the intention to insist on coming aboard, she was ultimately stopped by her older brother, Dai Yueyan.

"Let's go."

In the infirmary, Nan Fusheng gave the others a wink, and they immediately understood. They followed him and quietly left the infirmary, leaving only Gu Yue and Na'er alone with Tang Wulin.

"Brother." Na'er called softly as she looked at Tang Wulin, who was wrapped up like a dumpling. Then, with a complicated expression, she looked at Tang Wulin. She was beginning to realize that perhaps she didn't like Tang Wulin as much as she thought.

"Perhaps, it was a mistake for me to propose this bet to Gu Yue in the first place."

Na'er sighed inwardly. Although she was also worried about Tang Wulin, it was only out of concern for her brother. After all, she and Tang Wulin still had a brother-sister relationship.

Even if their past encounters were a complete conspiracy, people are still human. Years of getting along, coupled with Tang Wulin's affection for her, are undeniable.

Even if she really had to sever ties with Tang Wulin, she hoped to do so gradually after he had fully recovered.

"Perhaps she's suffering more than I am," Na'er said, glancing at Gu Yue, who was sitting expressionlessly beside Tang Wulin's bed.

Unlike Na'er, who has already recognized her own feelings, Gu Yue is afraid to admit her feelings.

Seeing Gu Yue's silence, Na'er knew that perhaps she shouldn't disturb her. So, Na'er walked to the door and said to Gu Yue, "I'm leaving now. I'm leaving my brother in your care."

"Bang."

When the door closed, Gu Yue could no longer control her emotions. Looking at Tang Wulin lying on the bed, tears began to stream down her face.

"Why? Why are you a child of a god? Was our meeting a conspiracy from the very beginning?"

The words Nan Fusheng said at the time, the golden trident that appeared on Tang Wulin's forehead at the end, and that divine power and golden dragon spear.

All of these points to Tang Wulin's identity. There are also many records about Tang Wutong in the Spirit Pagoda, including a detailed account of Tang Wutong's weapon, which is called the Golden Dragon Spear.

And that gun was the weapon of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion in the Star Dou Great Forest ten thousand years ago. How could Gu Yue not know this?

"Tang Wulin, Tang Wutong, Tang San, Xiao Wu, it turns out your names are no coincidence."

Gu Yue looked at Tang Wulin, who was now completely powerless to resist. With just a slight movement of her hand, she could easily take his life and sever her own desires.

Silver scales faintly appeared on the back of Gu Yue's hand, and her pupils instantly turned into purple vertical pupils. Gu Yue raised her dragon claw, seemingly about to make a move.

However, in the end, she couldn't make a move. The silver scales faded, and her pupils returned to their normal color. From Donghai Academy to Shrek Academy now, they had spent too much time together. How could the feelings between them be so easily severed?

When she was silent just now, she didn't even dare to ask Na'er for her opinion, because she was afraid of hearing something she didn't want to hear.

"I promised you that we would study together at Shrek Academy until graduation. I will not break that promise. When I graduate from Shrek Academy, that will be the time for us to go our separate ways."

Gu Yue seemed to be comforting herself, or perhaps forcing herself to make a choice. In the end, she left the infirmary with only this one sentence.

……

Within Tang Wulin's spiritual sea.

"Wu Lin, Wu Lin, wake up, don't keep sleeping." A gentle yet powerful voice echoed in Tang Wu Lin's mind, trying to awaken his consciousness.

"Ugh—" In a daze, Tang Wulin's consciousness began to clear.

"Ouch, that hurts."

Even while in the Sea of ​​Spirit, Tang Wulin felt excruciating pain all over his body, as if he were being torn apart by something.

"Old Tang, what's wrong with me?"

In the sea of ​​consciousness, Tang Wulin forced himself to clear his mind and tried to forget the pain.

A beam of azure light shone on Tang Wulin's body, and instantly, Tang Wulin felt that he was not in so much pain.

Old Tang's voice came through, "Wu Lin, your situation is very serious. The first eleven seals in the Golden Dragon King's seal have all been fully opened. If you are not careful, you will be in mortal danger."

"What!" Tang Wulin was shocked. Old Tang had said before that starting from the tenth seal of the Golden Dragon King, it would be safer to open it only after reaching the level of a Title Douluo.

"Old Tang, am I already dead?"

Tang Wulin examined his spiritual sea. He had only opened five seals before, so how did he inexplicably reach the eleventh seal now?

"No." Old Tang's voice remained as gentle as ever. "You were harmed by villains before, and even the twelfth seal showed signs of opening. I barely managed to use a bit of my power to suppress the twelfth seal again."

However, the Golden Dragon King's violent power has permeated your entire body, and even the power you absorbed in the Dragon Valley Small World is still raging within you. Right now, you are barely maintaining your basic vital signs thanks to my power.

"Dragon Valley." Upon hearing Old Tang's words, Tang Wulin quickly recalled his previous memories. "What about Yun'er? Old Tang, did Dai Yun'er successfully escape from Dragon Valley?"

"That little girl who was with you? Don't worry, she successfully escaped Dragon Valley. But you seem to care more about other people's lives than your own?"

"Hehe." Tang Wulin breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Dai Yun'er was alright, then chuckled, "After all, she was part of my team, and she's also a princess of the Star Luo Empire. If she died, it wouldn't be a good thing for the relationship between the Tang Sect and the Star Luo Empire."

Besides, Old Tang, didn't you say I wasn't dead yet? The fact that you're telling me these things means there's still hope for me, right?

"You silly child," Old Tang said, sounding both helpless and relieved.

"That's right. Although the Golden Dragon King's seal has been opened up to the eleventh level, thanks to your two soul spirits, they have absorbed most of the power for you. So although your situation is very dangerous, it is not beyond saving."

"Soul spirits!" Tang Wulin exclaimed in surprise. Yes, what about Jin Yu (the name of Tang Wulin's first soul spirit) and the Tyrannosaurus Rex soul spirit?

Tang Wulin hurriedly looked towards a corner of the Sea of ​​Spirit. At this moment, Jin Yu and the Tyrannosaurus Rex Soul were lying in a corner, quietly sleeping.

A layer of golden light enveloped both spirits, and their bodies seemed to have undergone some changes. Jin Yu was fine, but the Tyrannosaurus Rex looked completely different.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex, which was originally over sixty meters tall, didn't grow any taller, but instead sprouted a pair of enormous wings from its back. Wings—that's the hallmark of a true dragon!

Tang Wulin let out a soft "Eh?", "Old Tang, what's wrong with those two?"

"The two of them helped you bear most of the power of the tenth and eleventh seals of the Golden Dragon King, so they fell into a deep sleep. Otherwise, with your physical strength, you would probably have exploded and died long ago."

This is also a huge opportunity for both of them; the Golden Dragon King's bloodline energy will promote the further evolution of their bloodlines. But let's talk about you first.

Upon hearing Old Tang mention him, Tang Wulin immediately perked up.

"The Golden Dragon King's bloodline energy is rampaging throughout your body, disrupting your meridians. If you were a normal Soul Master, even if you didn't die from this kind of injury, you probably wouldn't be able to become a Soul Master anymore."

Hearing Old Tang say this, Tang Wulin clenched his fists nervously. Not being able to become a Soul Master? This was unacceptable to him. He still had so many ambitions to fulfill, and he hadn't even found his parents yet!

"However, do you still remember the method I taught you before for opening the eight extraordinary meridians?"

Tang Wulin nodded. The method for opening the eight extraordinary meridians. According to Old Tang, it was originally part of the Mysterious Heaven Skill, and it could help Soul Masters open their meridians and increase their cultivation speed.

However, because this method was too dangerous, the creator of the technique, for the safety of future practitioners, deliberately erased this part. What selfless dedication!

Tang Wulin didn't ask why Old Tang knew this method; it was a tacit understanding between him and Old Tang.

"The power of the Golden Dragon King fills your body, and it is impossible to expel it all. However, you can transform and absorb all of this power by using the method of opening the eight extraordinary meridians to open your own eight extraordinary meridians."

This process is destined to be difficult and lengthy, but my strength will assist and guide you.

Tang Wulin said firmly, "I'm not afraid."

"Good, you're a good kid indeed." Old Tang's voice was full of satisfaction. "This is destined to be a long and drawn-out battle, but the benefits you will reap when you succeed will be enormous. After opening up your eight extraordinary meridians, your body's endurance and cultivation speed will experience a huge boost."

"Besides that, Wu Lin, I also have some bad news for you." Old Tang's voice became serious. "Although my power is suppressing the seal, you must completely open your eight extraordinary meridians within five years at most."

Because at that time, the twelfth seal will be completely broken. Furthermore, every three years thereafter, one seal will be opened.

In other words, you must unlock the twelfth seal before you turn twenty, and the eighteenth seal when you turn thirty-eight.

Hearing Old Tang's somewhat worried words, Tang Wulin pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's okay, Old Tang. Look, I've already reached the eleventh seal, and I'm still full of energy."

The Golden Dragon King's seal might not be as powerful as you think, and my two spirits will also help me bear it.

"Foolish." Old Tang's voice turned serious. "Wu Lin, you'd better not have such strange ideas. The power of the Golden Dragon King is definitely not as simple as you think. If you don't believe me, you can try communicating with your two spirits right now."

Hearing Old Tang's serious words, Tang Wulin was startled, but communicating with the soul was not difficult.

With a thought, Tang Wulin connected his mind with them through the Soul Contract.

Kill! Kill! Kill! Heaven is unjust, and the divine realm will not tolerate us. Since those gods do not want to submit to my dragon race, then let's kill them all!

Incredibly violent thoughts filled Tang Wulin's mind, his eyes began to turn bloodshot, and even the surrounding sea of ​​consciousness began to faintly turn red.

"wake up."

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Old Tang emitted a blue light, which dispelled the red light and brought Tang Wulin back to his senses.

"Ha, ha! Huff..." Tang Wulin gasped for breath, and it took him a while to slowly recover.

"Old Tang, what is this...?" Tang Wulin asked breathlessly.

"Now you should understand what's going on. The power of the Golden Dragon King is too violent. In the later nine seals, each one contains a certain amount of the Golden Dragon King's consciousness. Your soul is affected by that violent consciousness."

They now lie dormant not only to deplete that power, but also to resist that raging consciousness.

Tang Wulin gasped for breath, "So that's how it is."

"Now you should understand the seriousness of the matter, right? Hurry up and start cultivating, I will help you."

"it is good."
