Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

With its god-level cultivation, even without the aid of the ocean, its own energy is extremely terrifying, but this state will inevitably not last long.

Of course, it had its own plans for seizing this opportunity. The moment the dragon's head emerged from the sea, an incomparably loud dragon roar spread to the distant sea.

Seeing this, Dongfang Hanyue in the sky shouted urgently, "Kill it quickly, it probably has companions."

"No rush, I'll wait to catch them all in one fell swoop."

Yan shook his head unhurriedly, not rushing to slay the dragon, but instead continued to increase the gravitational magnetic field on the Terror Sea Dragon, forcing it back into the sea.

"Be careful, there's another Sea Terror Dragon, and it's also a Celestial-level being."

In the far distance, where the sky meets the sea, a striking line of water rushed rapidly toward them. The Eastern Cold Moon in the sky noticed this immediately and alerted Yan, who merely tilted his head slightly to indicate he understood, continuing to slowly erode his opponent's strength.

Another massive, towering wave swept in from the horizon, bringing with it a terrifying pressure. However, compared to the trapped Sea Dragon, this newly appeared one was noticeably weaker, probably only reaching the threshold of the Celestial God level, and its power level was unstable.

Amidst the towering waves, another Terror Sea Dragon appeared in Yan's field of vision. Compared to the previous Terror Sea Dragon, this one was clearly much weaker, measuring only about eighty meters in length.

Even though it is only eighty meters long, it is still a Celestial God level. Even if it has just entered the Celestial God level, it represents a completely new level, which is incomparable to ordinary Heavenly Emperor level.

"Big brother, I'm here to save you."

Upon approaching, the sea dragon discovered the hundred-meter-long sea dragon trapped by Yan, and with a surge of powerful waves, it prepared to break through the gravitational magnetic field to rescue it.

"Very good, two Celestial-level beings, a decent haul, time to wrap up the net!"

Yan watched the rapidly approaching eighty-meter-long sea dragon, a slight smile appearing on his lips. Two god-level sea dragons of terror—these were excellent research materials. This time, his gains were substantial, making his trip to the Xuan Tian Continent worthwhile.

"Save me, please save me! Let me out! I'll submit! Spare my life..."

As Yan's thoughts drifted, the gravitational magnetic field suppressing the hundred-meter-long sea dragon continued to increase its power. A mournful dragon roar came from the seabed, where the huge dreadful sea dragon struggled incessantly. Its massive body was covered in bloodstains, and it screamed in a frenzy that was almost out of its mind.

At first, the sea dragon hoped to be rescued by its brother, but as the uneasy intuition in its heart grew more and more frightening, it began to beg for mercy. However, no matter how it cried out, Yan remained unmoved and silently increased the input of power.

"Big brother."

The eighty-meter-long sea monster became increasingly concerned as it saw its older brother trapped on the seabed in such a frenzy. But it soon sensed something was wrong. When did the seawater around it turn yellow? And what was this force that was pressing it into the sea?

"I surrender, spare me, spare me..."

Bai Mi Hailong also noticed that his younger brother had easily fallen into Yan's trap, and he became even more uneasy, roaring and begging for mercy.

Yan remained unmoved, clenching his fists. The light containing spiritual power silently invaded, preparing to completely annihilate the two sea dragons while preserving their integrity.

A strong sense of crisis surged into its heart, and the hundred-meter-long sea dragon unleashed its remaining power at this moment. A strong energy fluctuation suddenly erupted, and the terrifying sea dragon mobilized its original life force. It was going to make a final gamble, even if it meant death.

No living thing, when faced with certain death, will ever give up and accept its fate.

An intensely deep blue light burst forth from the very center of its body. This blue light looked so unique, giving people a feeling of comfort and clarity.

The terrifying energy surged almost instantly. With each change in the immense energy, the colossal body of the Terror Sea Dragon trembled, and rings of azure light continuously erupted from its body. The terrifying pressure seemed poised to break through the gravitational field.

The Eastern Cold Moon in the sky recognized what it was and cried out in alarm, "Yan, it's about to self-destruct its celestial core! Stop it!"

"You want to self-destruct? Dream on."

Before Dongfang Hanyue reminded him, Yan had already noticed something amiss. His eyes lit up, and a beam of earthy yellow light shot out from his left eye.

A flash of yellow light disappeared in an instant, and the sea surface suddenly trembled violently. An unparalleled and terrifying explosion created towering waves, and the terrifying force of the explosion made all life tremble.

In that instant, a mushroom cloud thousands of feet tall appeared on the sea, formed entirely of seawater and rising steam.

After the violent explosion, the two sea dragons lay lifeless, belly up on the surface of the sea. These god-level sea dragons, which had caused countless powerful figures in the Xuan Tian Palace headaches, were easily killed by Yan.

A terrifying blue light, mixed with black, gray, and blood-red halos, expanded instantly.

Chapter 597 Xuan Tian Arrives to Aid

At the top of the seven-story pavilion of Xuantian Palace and Xuantian Castle, all the high-ranking officials of Xuantian Palace were seated, but the atmosphere was noticeably heavy.

Dongfang Hanyue, wearing a mask, sat in the main seat, while her mother, Madam Dongfang, and the human form of the Dark Demon Dragon sat beside her. The four Heavenly Emperor-level elders, Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water, sat on either side, and the rest of the people were standing to discuss matters.

Not long after Dongfang Hanyue returned, she convened a meeting of all the high-ranking officials of Xuantian Palace to discuss Yan's request to borrow the space teleportation stone.

"Mother, Uncle Demon Dragon, Elders, these are the Heavenly Cores from the two Sea Terror Demon Dragons that died in the outer sea." Dongfang Hanyue took out two Heavenly Cores radiating extremely strong energy fluctuations from her storage device. They originated from the two Sea Terror Demon Dragons that Yan killed, and were proof that Yan had fulfilled his promise.

The Dark Dragon gazed at the two Celestial Cores, a look of desire unconsciously flashing in its eyes. Then, as if realizing something, it said with lingering fear, "I never imagined there would be two Celestial-level Sea Dragons in the outer sea. We were far too careless. If it weren't for that unexpected turn of events that allowed Young Master Yan to intervene, we might not have been able to withstand the Sea Dragons once they stormed the continent!"

"This can be considered a mistake with a solution!" Madam Dongfang looked at the two Heavenly Cores with complicated eyes. Originally, she made an agreement with Yan thinking that if the other party was not capable of killing the Terror Sea Demon Dragon, then the Space Teleportation Stone would not need to be handed over.

But the current situation is far beyond her expectations. There are two Heavenly God-level Terror Sea Dragons, and they were still killed by that Young Master Yan even when they joined forces. Just how strong is the opponent?

Looking at the two Heavenly Cores, Madam Dongfang thought of many things. They not only represented that Yan had fulfilled the agreement, but also that person's warning to Xuantian Palace: never break the agreement, or Xuantian Palace would pay a heavy price.

"Elders, what I mean is, since Young Master Yan has rid us of the Terror Sea Demon Dragon, then it's not impossible to lend out this Space Teleportation Stone." Dongfang Hanyue looked around and spoke softly. The Space Teleportation Stone was a treasure of the palace, and it was of great importance. Even as the palace master, she could not use it lightly, and lending it out would require the support and consent of many elders.

Elder Shui frowned slightly.

“Palace Master, we need to consider this matter carefully. The Space Teleportation Stone is a treasure of our sect, and its power is not what it used to be. Each use consumes a lot of energy, which is not a good thing for our Xuantian Palace.”

"Elder Shui, this matter is not something we can decide on our own," said Madam Dongfang, Dongfang Hanyue's mother. "Look at these two Heavenly Cores. They not only represent two Terror Sea Demon Dragons, but also demonstrate Young Master Yan's strength. Two Heavenly God-level Terror Sea Demon Dragons were easily suppressed and killed. If it were our Xuantian Palace, could we have stopped them? The current situation is that they are unwilling to pursue the matter further and have taken the initiative to make an agreement. If we really provoke them, our Xuantian Palace may face annihilation." Madam Dongfang's words left the group of elders, led by the four elders of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water, speechless. They also knew very well that the current Xuantian Palace was simply no match for them, so what ability did they have to break their promise?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Dongfang Hanyue felt secretly pleased. Since her ascension to the throne, she lacked prestige and her actions were often hampered. Watching a few old stubborn people get their comeuppance was one of her few sources of amusement.

"Elders, there is one more thing I think we can agree to." The elders fell silent, but Dongfang Hanyue spoke again: "That Young Master Yan previously explained to me the background of borrowing the Space Teleportation Stone. The Vast Continent is currently facing the Netherworld Calamity. The evil Netherworld Lord, sealed within the Netherworld Space, is tempting the powerful figures of the Vast Continent to sacrifice living beings to help him break the seal. Young Master Yan came to retrieve the Space Teleportation Stone to invite the descendants of the Dragon Emperor lineage to come out of seclusion. Young Master Yan also extended an invitation to me, hoping that the Xuantian Palace could intervene to quell the chaos, in exchange for these two Heavenly God-level Heavenly Cores. Furthermore, the Space Teleportation Stone can remain with me, and we can take it to help the Dragon Emperor's descendants break the spatial seal. What do you all think of this suggestion?"

"This..." The four elders hesitated and looked at each other. Having just lost face, they were not about to express their opinions easily. Madam Dongfang looked at her daughter first, and then at the Dark Dragon on the other side.

"I think this suggestion is acceptable." The first to speak was the Dark Dragon. He glanced at the two Celestial Cores he coveted, and continued when everyone looked at him, "The matter of the Lord of the Underworld is of great importance. My dragon ancestors left behind relevant information. Once this demon is born, the entire world may face death. If our Xuan Tian Palace sits idly by, we will also be doomed. Furthermore, this suggestion is also beneficial to us; we can leave the Space Teleportation Stone behind, it's just a matter of using it once." Although the Dark Dragon coveted the two Celestial Cores most, he was very clever. When it came to dividing the spoils, he would definitely discuss it privately. How could he discuss it with these elders? Using the power of Celestial Cores on these old men would be a waste.

Madam Dongfang knew what was going on and naturally supported her daughter.

"The Demon Dragon Ancestor's words make a lot of sense, and I support this suggestion."

"Palace Master, we have no objections either." Seeing this, the remaining elders and the four Supreme Elders had no choice but to agree. After discussing it further, the Dark Demon Dragon carried a group of experts at the Heavenly King level and above, and they set off for the Vast Continent with Yan.

...On the vast continent, in the Zhongtian Empire, high above Tianzhu Island, a dark cloud rapidly approached the center of Tianzhu Island, and the powerful figures of the Vast Palace who remained behind immediately became vigilant.

"Don't be nervous, it's Young Master Yan who's back." Shangguan Tianyang's voice came from the depths of the Vast Palace. Soon after, three figures appeared almost simultaneously in the sky above Tianzhu Island. Xue Aotian, Shangguan Tianyang, Shangguan Tianyue, and the others rushed back to Tianzhu Island after receiving news of Yan.

The dark clouds dispersed, and a demonic dragon over forty meters long appeared in the three people's sight, carrying seven figures. When Xue Aotian saw the dark demonic dragon, his eyes were filled with surprise and joy.

Although Yan had previously sent word that he had brought back reinforcements, the information was not specific. Xue Aotian did not expect that there would be a dragon among the reinforcements, which was an old friend of their Heavenly Spirit Tiger clan.

Xue Aotian took the initiative to step forward and greet the Dark Dragon.

"Greetings, Brother Long."

"You are the Sacred Heavenly Spirit Tiger." The Dark Demon Dragon could sense the powerful ancient bloodline emanating from Xue Aotian. The Sacred Heavenly Spirit Tiger clan was second only to the Dragon Emperor clan among the Heavenly Beasts, and was much stronger than ordinary dragons, so its status was naturally extraordinary.

"Let's go straight to the entrance of the Light and Shadow Space!" Yan suggested before Xue Aotian and the Dark Demon Dragon could exchange pleasantries. Shangguan Tianyang and Shangguan Tianyue naturally had no objections, and the group quickly arrived at the entrance of the Light and Shadow Space, where a group of elders, led by Shangguan Longyin, were already waiting.

“Brother Xue, you and Brother Long are both very powerful. Given your size, you probably won’t be able to stay in the Light and Shadow Space for three days. We’ll set a limit of one day, and then have Palace Master Dongfang use the Space Teleportation Stone to escort you out.” Before the entrance to the Light and Shadow Space, Shangguan Tianyang, Xue Aotian, and the Dark Demon Dragon discussed the details of their operation. This time, it was the two of them who were going in to search for the Dragon Queen’s descendants. Their god-level search abilities far surpassed those of ordinary people, and Xue Aotian and the Dark Demon Dragon’s special identities made it easier for them to gain the trust of the Dragon Queen’s descendants.

Xue Aotian and the Dark Dragon both nodded.

"We understand that with the combined efforts of the few of us, we should be able to send a signal from within. Just keep an eye on the time." Shangguan Longyin and the other elders of the Vast Expanse Palace had completed the ceremony. With a flash of light, Xue Aotian and the Dark Dragon disappeared from everyone's sight.

...Outside the entrance to the space of light and shadow, a group of people waited silently. This kind of waiting was the most agonizing process, and Yan was not a very patient person at times like this.

Unfortunately, Dongfang Hanyue was wearing a mask. Madam Dongfang was quite attractive, but with a child present and Shangguan Tianyue, her 'father-in-law,' in the picture, Yan couldn't chat with the beautiful woman. So he went to his 'father-in-law' to inquire about the three sisters.

"Uncle, I remember you mentioned last time that you sent Xue'er and the others to find reinforcements. Have you heard anything back yet?" Yan chuckled and approached Shangguan Tianyue. As expected, he received a look of disdain from his father-in-law. Shangguan Tianyue never had a good attitude towards this guy who coveted his three daughters. However, Yan was thick-skinned enough not to care about the cold look.

Shangguan Tianyue glanced at someone and said coldly, "Bing'er and the others should be back soon. As for Xue'er, she will inherit the position of Palace Master of Haomiao Palace in the future..." He didn't know what to do with this shameless guy. He couldn't beat him or reason with him. Unfortunately, his youngest daughter, Shangguan Bing'er, had already been stolen by someone else. He was now keeping a close watch on his second daughter. As for his eldest daughter, she had nothing to do with this guy at the moment, but he still had to be careful.

His words just now also had a clear meaning. Shangguan Xue'er is preparing to inherit the position of palace master, which also means that she will not marry outside the palace. This way, she can put an end to someone's thoughts and make him behave himself.

Yan seemed not to understand Shangguan Tianyue's meaning at all, and muttered to himself, "Oh, is it not going well? Do you think I should go and help them?"

"You've been traveling for so many days, why don't you stay in the Vast Palace and rest for a few days? We also need to entertain the distinguished guests from the Profound Heaven Palace..." Shangguan Tianyue suppressed the urge to beat this shameless guy to death and was about to make her point more clearly when suddenly a few spatial ripples appeared at the entrance to the light and shadow space behind her. This was a signal from the people inside.

Chapter 598 The Elf Race

"They're coming out, Palace Master Dongfang, use the spatial teleportation stone." Before Yan's voice had even faded, Dongfang Hanyue had already made her move. She stepped forward and stood in front of the crowd, then slightly opened her robe.

Most people subconsciously looked away when they saw Dongfang Hanyue's actions, but one person stared wide-eyed, thinking that it was better to see than not.

After pulling open her clothes, Dongfang Hanyue took out a small pendant. The pendant was made of silver-white metal, and the pendant was diamond-shaped and quite large. A thin silver chain hung it on Dongfang Hanyue's slender and beautiful neck.

Yan sensed it briefly and found that the rhombus-shaped pendant contained an incredibly large amount of spatial energy fluctuations.

As expected, the pendant contained a spatial teleportation stone. Dongfang Hanyue took the pendant in her palm, her beautiful eyes fixed on the swirling light and shadow entrance. Suddenly, the pendant in her palm emitted a crisp crack, followed by a strong silver light shooting out straight into the air.

The next moment, the silver light danced and intertwined in the sky, and a huge and complex graphic symbol appeared out of thin air. The intense spatial energy fluctuations seemed to distort everything around it.

The intense silver light twisted violently, transforming into a massive vortex at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

A terrifying energy surge erupted wildly in the next moment, and an overwhelming pressure suddenly spread from the spatial turbulence.

The intense fluctuations of celestial power almost made the entire Tianzhu Island tremble. A huge figure emerged from the center of the spatial turbulence.

"Roar~~~" The enormous dragon, over two hundred meters long, let out a triumphant roar upon breaking free. Its wings spread out like dark clouds pressing down overhead, and its fiery red body resembled the most dazzling red crystal.

Even though they had been mentally prepared, most people were still stunned when they actually saw the hundred-meter-long dragon. In particular, the group of powerful people from Xuantian Palace who came to support them felt the pressure from their bloodline.

Once upon a time, a dark dragon transformed into human form and mated with humans to rule the Xuan Tian Continent, which led to the later Xuan Tian Palace. Therefore, the high-ranking members of the Xuan Tian Palace lineage are all descendants of the dark dragon. Faced with the powerful bloodline of the Dragon Emperor, they felt immense pressure.

However, the massive silver spatial turbulence did not stop with the appearance of the dragon. In the next moment, another huge figure slowly emerged from the spatial turbulence.

This dragon was not as large as the previous one, only about 100 meters long. But what was special was that a small and cute fire dragon was hanging around its neck. It was a newborn dragon.

The group of people at the entrance of the light and shadow space were a little numb. The two unfamiliar hundred-meter-long dragons put endless pressure on them. The lowest level of cultivation among them was Heavenly King, who could command the wind and rain in the human world, but in front of these two dragons, they would probably be swallowed up one by one.

"Brother Huiyao, these humans are all our allies. Please show mercy." Xue Aotian's voice came from within the silvery-white storm. He and the Dark Dragon appeared one after the other. The Dark Dragon slowly flew to the side of the hundred-meter-long dragon and made a gesture of submission. After all, its bloodline was inferior to the other's.

The largest dragon spoke.

"Brother Xue, and everyone else, thank you for your help this time. Regarding the Netherworld Tribulation, my Dragon Emperor lineage was a participant back then, and naturally we have no reason to back down today." The dragon Huiyao's voice was very deep, but when it spoke, the mountains echoed, and everything around it slowly turned red.

This differs from the way the Terror Sea Dragon and the Dark Demon Dragon use the power of heaven and earth. When they use the power of heaven and earth, they also clearly rely on their own aura to influence the environment.

But the radiant dragon before him gave a completely different feeling, as if the primordial energy of heaven and earth had submitted on its own and was naturally at his command.

Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. The pressure from the giant dragon radiance was considerable. This guy seemed to really have the ability to hurt him, which was a very high evaluation.

Now that Yan possesses the bones of a Mountain Dragon King, it's virtually impossible for any power below the divine level to harm him. Even the previously powerful Sea Demon Dragon had the ability to injure him, provided he didn't actively activate his strongest defense.

But the current Dragon Radiance gives him a different feeling. Even if he activates Mountain Dragon's Guard, he might still be injured by it. Of course, if he were to actually use such a move, the dragon would basically be dead.

Huiyao didn't unleash too much power, but even though he tried his best to restrain his dragon might, it still rippled with strong energy fluctuations, and the surrounding temperature continued to rise.

"Descendants of the Dark Dragon Clan, may we temporarily reside in this Spatial Teleportation Stone?" He turned his dragon head to look at Dongfang Hanyue and said loudly, "Duo Si and I are too powerful, and the Dragon Emperor's bloodline has a great influence on the surrounding environment. Reckless actions can easily cause mass deaths. However, this time, in dealing with that Netherworld Evil, it would be best to achieve a surprise effect. This Spatial Teleportation Stone can allow us to temporarily reside there. In addition, if I am not mistaken, this Spatial Teleportation Stone seems to be fine. I will try to repair it by dissolving it. Otherwise, after a few more uses, this precious treasure will be ruined." Dongfang Hanyue quickly said with delight, "Senior's insight is keen. This Spatial Teleportation Stone is indeed faulty. It would be great if you were willing to help." Huiyao and Duo Si, the dragon couple, exchanged a glance, and the dense red light suddenly subsided. Their huge bodies transformed into two beams of red light, heading towards the Spatial Teleportation Stone in Dongfang Hanyue's palm.

A vast and boundless energy quietly poured in. Before Dongfang Hanyue could even sense it properly, Huiyao, Duosi, and the little dragon had vanished into thin air.
