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

Chapter 617 Both Breakthrough

The East China Sea Naval Corps is the headquarters of the joint command of the three services.

"What? Someone is pushing their limits?"

As the Vast Ocean Douluo, Chen Xinjie was already in his office reviewing various military documents and handling the legion's affairs.

However, a surge of energy, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly alerted him. He flashed forward, moving with ghostly speed, and in a flash, he was in mid-air, his gaze piercing as he stared directly in the direction of Tianhai City.

With his cultivation level as a Limit Douluo, it wouldn't be difficult for him to detect the obvious energy fluctuations in the distance.

Breaking through to the Limit Douluo realm is an extremely dangerous event, inevitably triggering energy tides in the world. A mishap could lead to a catastrophe.

Therefore, when Limit Douluo break through their limits, they usually choose a secluded and quiet place, and have someone help control the external situation to prevent problems from occurring.

But at this moment, this Limit Douluo's breakthrough came suddenly, and he clearly didn't try to hide it at all.

Such a rich, sacred aura, coupled with that powerful life-healing energy.

"Is that Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li?"

Silently sensing the changes in the surging energy, a hint of understanding appeared in Chen Xinjie's eyes. He was no stranger to Ya Li's aura.

"Shrek Academy still has a solid foundation."

A complex emotion flickered in Chen Xinjie's eyes. A Limit Douluo with a healing ability was virtually unheard of in the entire history of Douluo Star. At least, there was none in Chen Xinjie's memory. He hadn't expected to witness a miracle at this moment.

What level can a healing-type Limit Douluo achieve?

Chen Xinjie was unaware of this, but as a Limit Douluo himself, he was even more aware of the enormous difference between a Limit Douluo and a Level 98 Super Douluo—it was a completely qualitative difference.

With Ya Li's presence, the power of Shrek Academy and Tang Sect has clearly been significantly enhanced!

This obvious energy fluctuation was clearly not only noticed by Chen Xinjie within the three legions. Other highly skilled generals and soldiers also keenly sensed this unusual power.

"Commander-in-Chief, is someone breaking through to the Limit Douluo level? Should we send troops to investigate?" General Xu Yangyun asked Chen Xinjie with a serious expression.

"Buzz—"

Chen Xinjie glanced at Xu Yangyun, and just as he was about to respond, a strong energy fluctuation suddenly erupted from within the East Sea Fleet.

This fluctuation was different from the one that came from the direction of Tianhai City. It carried a strong aura of water element, and the surrounding water element seemed to be summoned by some powerful force, and began to surge and cheer.

Feeling the familiar soul power fluctuations, Chen Xinjie's face lit up with joy. He then said to Xu Yangyun in a deep voice, "Don't worry about Tianhai City for now. Now pass on my order: no one is allowed to approach the East Sea Legion's command post. Anyone who disobeys will be punished for treason."

After speaking, Chen Xinjie descended again. His figure drew a graceful arc in the air before landing steadily on the ground. However, his powerful mental energy emanated from him like an invisible net, covering the entire legion's encampment.

He did not choose to approach the East Navy headquarters, after all, his relationship with Aquaria was still very strained.

Ever since his big argument with Aquarius, the conflict between them had remained unresolved. Under these circumstances, he chose to use his mental energy to monitor the command center, just in case anything went wrong.

"Long Tianwu." As soon as Chen Xinjie landed, he called out to a young man with a cold expression.

Long Tianwu, as the second War God of the War God Temple, is titled Emperor Sword. She is an absolute backbone of the War God Temple, and in terms of combat power, she has never fallen out of the top five in the War God Temple.

"Palace Master." Upon hearing Chen Xinjie's call, Long Tianwu immediately stepped forward and bowed to Chen Xinjie with precise and swift movements.

"Tianwu, go to the East Sea Legion's command post and protect Commander Aquia. Your cultivation has reached level ninety-eight. Opportunities to observe others breaking through to the Limit Douluo realm up close are rare, and this might bring you some insights."

Chen Xinjie spoke earnestly. He was well aware of Long Tianwu's potential and hoped that this rare opportunity would help him make further progress on his cultivation path.

"Yes." A strange light flashed in Long Tianwu's eyes. After giving a military salute, he flew towards the East Sea Fleet.

"The Sea God family is indeed full of talented people!" In mid-air, feeling the intense water element fluctuations around him, Federation General Xu Yangyun revealed a hint of envy.

"One subject, two limits—that's quite a rare and remarkable story."

After landing, Xu Yangyun immediately instructed the surrounding soldiers to increase their vigilance.

Since the commander-in-chief said not to worry about Tianhai City, he naturally wouldn't meddle in its affairs. But the situation was different with the East Sea Fleet; it was a force belonging to their Federation.

At this crucial moment when war is about to break out, someone has been able to break through to the Limit Douluo level. This is truly exciting news!

It will not only strengthen the Federation's power, but also boost the morale of the soldiers, giving them more confidence for the upcoming war.

……

"Is this feeling... a breakthrough for Master's wife?" At the entrance of the Governor's Mansion in Tianhai City, Gu Yuena cast her gaze into the distance, a glint of silver flashing in her purple eyes.

The hotel controlled by the Tang Clan is located in the most bustling downtown area of ​​Tianhai City, while the Governor's Mansion is also located in the heart of the city.

At such a close distance, how could Gu Yuena, with her cultivation level, not sense the energy fluctuations coming from afar?

Mentioning Yali, Gu Yuena felt a pang of indescribable sadness. Gu Yuena knew this wasn't her own emotion; it was Na'er's emotions influencing her.

When Na'er first became Yun Ming's disciple, she did indeed harbor some ulterior motives, but Yun Ming and Ya Li, the couple, always treated her with the same care and affection as their own daughter. How could Na'er not know this kindness?

Gu Yuena forcibly suppressed the surging emotions within her, a strange glint flashing in her eyes. Admittedly, Na'er had deep feelings for Ya Li, but that didn't mean Gu Yuena felt the same way.

Na'er only caught Ya Li's aura, but Gu Yue keenly sensed another completely different aura from that direction.

"Tang Wulin".

Gu Yuena uttered the name expressionlessly, her voice cold and calm. She had expected that the moment she sensed the other person's presence, her heart would be filled with turbulent emotions, but the reality was unexpected; at this moment, her heart was completely still and calm.

Her memories of her time with Tang Wulin remained as vivid as yesterday, yet her heart was now completely unmoved. If he didn't possess the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, perhaps they could have become friends.

However, this was ultimately just wishful thinking. Tang Wulin, as the son of the Sea God Tang San, also possessed the powerful bloodline of the Golden Dragon King. This alone destined them to be enemies.

Gu Yuena pondered countless times why Tang San would leave his offspring in Douluo Continent and give them such a powerful and unique bloodline.

After careful consideration, she came to a conclusion: Tang San probably wanted Tang Wulin to devour him so that he could become the Dragon God.

This was the only answer Gu Yuena could think of, and the most likely answer she believed.

Recalling the accident from her childhood, Gu Yuena felt a mix of emotions. That encounter had sparked her feelings for Tang Wulin, and these feelings deepened as she transformed into Gu Yue.

In retrospect, all of this may have been a carefully orchestrated scheme by Tang San, with the aim of making herself fall in love with Tang Wulin, and then, like Xiao Wu 20,000 years ago and the auspicious beast 10,000 years ago, willingly sacrificing herself to Tang Wulin to help him ascend to the throne of the Dragon God.

Fortunately, her journey through the Dragon Valley mini-world allowed her to fully recognize Tang Wulin's identity and also brought her back to reality from this seemingly beautiful dream.

"The debt I owed you when I was young was already settled after I shielded you from a level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell last time. We're even now."

Gu Yuena gazed into the distance, silently reciting something in her heart. She touched her lower abdomen, feeling the deep love Nan Fusheng exuded within, a tenderness flashing in her eyes. Then she turned and flew towards the Spirit Pagoda of Tianhai City.

If we don't go to the Spirit Pagoda soon, that annoying "fly" at the Ancient Pavilion might actually come to the Governor's residence.

Given Qian Gu Zhangting's arrogant and conceited nature, if he were to clash with Nan Fusheng, the situation would be difficult to manage.

Although Fors is stationed inside the Spirit Pagoda, it is almost impossible for Qian Gu Zhangting to mobilize the power of the Spirit Pagoda to target Nan Fusheng.

However, it cannot be ignored that Qian Gu Zhang Ting's cultivation has reached the peak of level 94. Given his temperament, if he were to secretly use some ruthless means, how could Nan Fusheng, a mere Soul Saint, possibly withstand it?

Although the two might not clash, Gu Yuena decided to avoid such potential trouble as much as possible.

As for Tang Wulin's existence, Gu Yuena decided to put it aside for the time being.

She still vividly remembered the scene in the Dragon Valley Small World where the Sea God Tang San possessed her. Clearly, Tang San had left a powerful backup plan for Tang Wulin, one that would allow Tang Wulin to unleash god-level power.

Under these circumstances, it would be extremely foolish to clash with Tang Wulin now.

Gu Yuena already had her own plans. She was not satisfied with the status quo, nor would she sit idly by and wait for her doom. If she really wanted to make a move against Tang Wulin, she would at least wait until she could reliably unleash god-level power on the Douluo Continent.

While she may have seemed foolish in sealing her own power and undergoing a transformation to rebuild her cultivation, she actually had her own profound considerations.

On one hand, she wanted to gain a deeper understanding of humanity, including their habits, thought processes, and power systems; on the other hand, she wanted to make her aura more compatible with that of humans, so that she could break through and become a god in human form.

Although she didn't understand why the Douluo Continent restricted the emergence of gods, it was clear that compared to becoming a god as a soul beast, it was easier for humans to become gods and less likely to be rejected by the plane. Therefore, Gu Yuena decided to break through as a human.

Once she breaks through to the god level, and with the help of the Dragon Mystic Technique to control a large number of soul masters, what power will humanity have to stop her?

At that time, even if the Sea God Tang San had a backup plan, what could he do? As long as Tang San himself did not descend, the Silver Dragon King, who possessed the power of a first-level god, would be an invincible existence on Douluo Star.

Although Tang Wulin has great potential and poses a huge threat, Gu Yuena firmly believes that her cultivation speed after transforming and rebuilding is far superior to Tang Wulin's.

Moreover, the Golden Dragon King's violent power is far from easy to completely control.

"The Silver Dragon's Reverse Scale is still on Tang Wulin's body, which allows me to sense his condition and location. In this way, he is essentially under my surveillance. Only at the Soul Saint level? His cultivation speed is quite fast."

A glint of light flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes. That silver dragon's reverse scale was something she had given to Tang Wulin when she was still Gu Yue. She never expected that what was once an unintentional act would now become the key to her controlling Tang Wulin's whereabouts.

"Perhaps I can give Fusheng a hard spot, which will allow me to keep a closer eye on his situation and protect him in critical moments. Those spirits are clearly plotting something against him, so we must be on guard."

Once this idea surfaced in Gu Yuena's mind, it took root and sprouted, causing her to ponder it repeatedly. If she could give him a sliver of support, she would feel more at ease, since Nan Fusheng's performance had been so weak.

However, this seemingly feasible idea soon encountered practical obstacles.

The reverse scale, as the most important and unique part of a dragon's body, is of paramount importance. Even Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, only has one reverse scale on her entire body.

At this moment, her only Achilles' heel is on Tang Wulin, playing a crucial role in monitoring his every move.

Tang Wulin possesses a special bloodline and is involved in the complex schemes of the Sea God Tang San. The surveillance of him cannot be relaxed for a moment, which makes it impossible for Gu Yuena to easily take back this reverse scale and give it to Nan Fusheng.

"Could it be that we should make Di Tian reveal his Achilles' heel?" This thought flashed through Gu Yuena's mind like lightning, but she decisively rejected it in an instant.

Dragons have a special sensitivity to their reverse scales, not only being able to clearly know the location of the reverse scale, but also being able to use the reverse scale to unleash powerful methods.

Once Di Tian's Reverse Scale establishes a connection with Nan Fusheng, Di Tian will be able to easily sense Nan Fusheng's location and status. This will not only completely expose Nan Fusheng's whereabouts to Di Tian, ​​but may also trigger a series of unpredictable consequences.

After all, the relationship between soul beasts and humans is complex. Although Di Tian is an important fighting force of the soul beast race and is loyal to him, such exposure will undoubtedly bring many uncontrollable factors.

Furthermore, considering Nasita's quasi-god-level combat power, and the other soul spirits whose strength could be clearly felt from the brief mental clash last time, even though they had never met, it was not to be underestimated.

Gu Yuena couldn't help but wonder if one day Naxi Da's spirits would truly reveal their true intentions and harm Nan Fusheng.

Then Di Tian used the Reverse Scale to teleport there. Was he going to save people or to deliver food to them?

"Ugh, this is so annoying. Fine, I'll just wait until the small world of the Beast Platform is completely stable, then find a chance to lure Fusheng over, throw him inside, and treat him like a sex slave."

A very dangerous thought suddenly occurred to Gu Yuena.
