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

Chapter 528 Million-Year Soul Beast

After all the fragments of destruction have been collected, let the Heavenly Punishment devour the energy of destruction. The remaining life energy in the fragments will be enough to help Nasida break through to 900,000 years.

In comparison, the power of these two 100,000-year-old soul beasts offered her limited assistance.

"Hehe, isn't this just a habit of saving money?" Nasita playfully stuck out her tongue.

"Let's give it to Leviathan, we're about to leave too," Nan Fusheng said.

"Huh? So fast? Aren't there still more than twenty pieces of destruction fragments that haven't been recovered?" Nasita looked at Nan Fusheng in surprise.

Nan Fusheng explained, "Previously, the Heavenly Tribulation was merely adapting over time and absorbing the power of destruction, but now it has adapted quite well, so it wants to absorb all the fragments of destruction in one go and break through to the level of a god."

"Alright." Nasita glanced reluctantly at the two large packages behind her, then waved her hand, and a spatial passage reappeared.

"This is for you."

After saying something to the spatial passage, Nasita threw the two large packages inside and then closed it, not wanting her face to be splashed by the seawater.

"Main body, come on. I'm ready. This time, we must break through to the god level in one fell swoop." The nine heads of the Heavenly Punishment spoke at the same time, their voices full of determination and anticipation.

"it is good."

Nan Fusheng responded, and immediately his God-King level spiritual power surged forth like a tidal wave, sweeping towards the numerous small islands near Devil Island. In just a moment, he precisely locked onto the more than twenty islands that still had fragments of destruction remaining.

"Transfer".

With a slight thought, Nan Fusheng unleashed his powerful abilities, peeling the fragments off the islands one by one and instantly transferring them to the main island of Devil's Island.

"Sizzle—"

The remaining twenty-odd fragments of destruction were gathered here. Just by getting close to each other, the destructive power contained within them stirred each other, causing the surrounding air to emit sharp hissing sounds, as if the space itself was trembling.

"Eat it."

Nan Fusheng deliberately took out a fragment of destruction from it, which was reserved for the seven old demons.

These seven old demons exist by relying on the life and destruction energy of this place, and they still have value to Nan Fusheng, so Nan Fusheng does not want them to disappear.

"roar--"

Without hesitation, Heavenly Punishment swallowed all the fragments of destruction in an instant.

In an instant, terrifying destructive power surged forth from its body like a volcanic eruption. The nine heads of the Heavenly Punishment simultaneously closed their eyes, and its massive body slowly lay down on the ground, falling into a deep slumber.

Streams of purplish-black soul power surged forth from his body like a raging tide, one wave after another.

Immediately, a purplish-black pillar of light, seemingly connecting heaven and earth, shot into the sky, reaching the heavens above and the netherworld below, its soul power fluctuations shaking the heavens and earth.

If Nan Fusheng hadn't used the power of "concealment," Tang Hao and A Yin would have definitely sensed the fluctuations in soul power here.

"roar--"

Just ten minutes later, a terrifying roar came from the pillar of light, and then the body of the Heavenly Punishment reappeared. Its body was still the same size, but its aura was completely different.

A terrifying purplish-black light swirled around Tianqian, surging forth with each breath. The next moment, Tianqian opened its mouth, spitting out more than twenty fragments containing life energy.

Nasita's eyes lit up. Ignoring their filth, she reached out and summoned several vines that instantly enveloped the twenty-odd fragments. These were the nutrients for her advancement.

The next instant, the colossal body of the Heavenly Punishment suddenly arched back, and a blinding purplish-black light burst forth like a dazzling explosion. Its massive body, over a thousand meters long, began to slowly shrink.

In mid-air, a naked figure gradually appeared. Enveloped in a hazy, purplish-black halo, her face was difficult to discern, but it was still vaguely recognizable as a woman.

During its transformation, Devil Island was completely enveloped in a thick light, plunging the entire island into darkness, where one could not see their own hand in front of their face.

Once the woman's figure was fully solidified, she walked slowly towards Nan Fusheng on the sea surface, her original face gradually becoming clear.

A long black dress perfectly hugged her figure, her exquisite features seemed to have been sculpted by the heavens, and her deep purple eyes were like mysterious purple gemstones, radiating a deep and captivating luster.

Her skin was as delicate as mutton fat jade, slightly pale yet crystal clear, as moist and captivating as a freshly peeled lychee. Sunlight poured down on her, adding warmth and making her purple hair shimmer with a crystalline luster. Her long, pale purple hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, reaching her waist.

(P.S.: For a specific example, refer to Saint Cai'er in The Throne of Seals.)

"Why a woman?" Nan Fusheng looked at her, his tone tinged with helplessness.

"Who knows? I was originally genderless. I just naturally took human form after transforming. Gender shouldn't matter, right?"

Tianqian waved her hand lightly, then extended her slender, jade-like finger and touched her lips lightly, "Or rather, do you, in your true form, wish to share a romantic encounter with me? I wouldn't mind."

"Forget it," Nan Fusheng waved his hand and said, "How are you feeling now?"

"How do you feel?"

Tianqian extended a finger, a purplish-black light flickering and dancing at its tip. This seemingly ordinary energy light made Nan Fusheng clearly aware that his own soul power was being subtly suppressed.

"Is this divine power?" Nan Fusheng stared at the purplish-black light, his eyes filled with curiosity. Although Devil Island itself possessed divine power, it was either too dormant or too violent, making it difficult to observe and investigate carefully.

Therefore, this was the first time Nan Fusheng had so directly experienced this mysterious and powerful force.

"Yes, this is divine power!" The figure of Heavenly Punishment was full of pride. "My spiritual power and soul power are already at the divine level. Unfortunately, I have too little destructive power. It is not enough for me to construct a divine position."

"Therefore, compared to the gods of the past, I am not yet. But for a Title Douluo, I am already a god! If Yun Ming is a quasi-god, then although I am not a god, I am a true god!"

"I don't know about the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm from ten thousand years ago, but at least on Douluo Star now, I should be the first soul beast to break through to the million-year level and truly reach the god level."

True God! This realm has been unparalleled since Huo Yuhao, the Spirit Ice Douluo, became a god. This realm is only half a step away from godhood.

Reaching the Divine Origin Realm in spiritual power is already incredibly difficult, but spiritual power is, after all, within the physical body of a living being, naturally formed. There's always a sliver of hope. Soul power, however, is different; soul power belongs to this world.

For humans, if they want to break through the ninety-nine levels of soul power and reach the legendary hundred levels, which is the level of a god, then the first thing they must do is break through the shackles of this world. Only in this way can they truly break into the god level.

But how easy is that? To fight against an entire plane with one's own strength is almost impossible. Even a true god, unless exceptionally powerful, would find it difficult to contend with the power of another plane within the Douluo Continent.

Take the Vast Ocean Douluo Chen Xinjie and the Sky-Supporting Douluo Yun Ming as examples. The two once joined forces to fight in the high sky of Douluo Star, with the aim of trying to see if they could break through in the battle.

But the result?

Even the two most powerful quasi-gods, whose spiritual power had reached the Divine Origin Realm, ultimately failed at the last moment. One can imagine how difficult it must have been!

But the divine punishment is different; she is only one step away from becoming a god, and in terms of level, she is already at the god level.

Even the Demon Emperor, now half-mad, has absolutely not truly reached the million-year level. This is the only thing Tianqian is absolutely certain of. Because she had this feeling when she broke through to the million-year level.

It was just a feeling, but she was absolutely certain of it.

And that is indeed the case. The Demon Emperor truly broke through to the god level after her Blood River God-Slaying Array was successfully activated. At present, she has at most 990,000 years of cultivation.

Aside from the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's breakthrough ten thousand years ago, no other soul beast on Douluo Star has ever successfully achieved this. This step is incredibly difficult on Douluo Star today.

Even the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, which Tang San killed 20,000 years ago, was only 990,000 years old. Perhaps its soul power had undergone some qualitative change, but it definitely had not truly reached the level of a million years.

"My true form, I cannot sign a soul contract with you yet. I can sense that my body has not yet truly transformed into a divine body. Perhaps I will have to wait a while longer," Tianqian said to Nan Fusheng.

Divine soul, divine body, and divine power constitute the three essential elements of a deity. Although Tianqian's spiritual power and soul power have completely broken through, her physical body is still lacking.

It was just a little short; after all, her body had already been washed by a large amount of destructive energy and had begun to transform. But she absorbed even more of the destructive power, turning it into nourishment for breaking through to the god level.

But it doesn't matter, her soul power has already become divine power. As long as she spends more time, she can successfully adapt her body to the divine power and transform into a true divine body.

"It's alright. You should go back to the Dragon Valley Small World first. Otherwise, without my cover, I'm afraid Tang Hao and the others will sense your presence."

Nan Fusheng casually waved his hand, and a phantom spatial gate opened. For him, it didn't matter when he broke through to the seventh ring, since his martial spirit was just so-so anyway.

"Hmm." Tianqian didn't say anything more and stepped directly into the door.

"The seven of you can stay here with Leviathan. I'll leave this smaller fragment of destruction here. It doesn't contain much destructive power. With your abilities, the seven of you shouldn't have trouble mobilizing its energy."

"You can periodically draw upon the life energy within to gather the surrounding sea spirit beasts, which Leviathan can then devour. However, the 'hidden' power I've placed around here is almost dissipating, so Leviathan's size should become increasingly difficult to conceal. This method can only be used a few times at most."

Nan Fusheng put down the piece of destruction that he had deliberately left behind, and then gave instructions to the seven old demons.

"Don't worry, Main Body. I just want to ask, how much longer do we have to wait here? There's nothing here at all. If we stay here for too long, I'm afraid we'll go crazy. No, it seems like we were already crazy to begin with."

The Greedy Demon first made a solemn promise, then cautiously asked Nan Fusheng. Even the other six Demons turned their gazes towards him.

"At the latest, it will be ten years. By then, the Abyss Plane should have completely invaded. That will be about right. And who knows, before I even take the seven of you away, someone else might do it for me."

"That's good." The Greedy Demon breathed a sigh of relief. "Then may you have a safe journey, and we will take care of Leviathan."

……

Skysea City, the Governor's Residence.

After being away for more than half a month, Nan Fusheng finally returned to his "home".

In the living room of the mansion, Xu Xiaoyan had finished her deep meditation. At this moment, she was lying lazily on the sofa, her boredom evident.

She wore an elegant dress, the hem of which was slightly flared, revealing her calves clad in white stockings. Her calves swayed gently from time to time, as if venting her inner frustration and impatience.

"Ziji, why hasn't Fusheng come back yet?" Xu Xiaoyan asked softly, her voice tinged with a hint of coquettishness and confusion.

Upon hearing this, Zi Ji hurriedly and respectfully replied, "Master, Lord Fusheng already explained that he received a message from Lord Fors and went to meet and talk with a certain senior."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoyan's face showed a slightly unnatural expression.

Normally, the servants in the house treated her with utmost respect, but this was the first time they had addressed her as "master" so directly, like Zi Ji did.

Moreover, Zi Ji was extremely beautiful and far more powerful than her. Under such circumstances, being called "master" by her often made Xu Xiaoyan feel quite embarrassed, as if she wanted to dig a two-bedroom apartment out of the ground with her toes.

"You don't need to call me master, just call me by my name," Xu Xiaoyan said softly.

"That won't do. There's a proper order of seniority. If we're..." Zi Ji remained stubborn, speaking firmly.

"You'll feel ashamed if Lord Fors finds out, won't you? You've said these words countless times, I'm sick of hearing them." Xu Xiaoyan rolled her eyes helplessly and complained.

Whenever this topic comes up, Murasaki always brings up Fors and argues with her using a lot of reasoning.

"I wonder what Fors did to make a Super Douluo so obedient to her," Xu Xiaoyan thought to herself.

"Never mind, I'll just go play on Star Wars.net instead." Xu Xiaoyan said, then lightly jumped off the sofa, her small feet in white stockings making a soft sound as they stepped onto the smooth floor.

Just as Xu Xiaoyan was about to get up and head to the room where the Star Pods were stored, she suddenly turned around as if she had a premonition, her gaze fixed on the door.
