Douluo: Dragon King's Tai Chi Mystery

With his foresight, Zhao Xuanzhen understood the powerful control mechanism of the Unpredictable Storm. Dark flames mixed with the power of the celestial disc surged out, and the treacherous and unpredictable evil fire of the Tengshe perfectly blocked all the golden halos!

“The stars gather here!”

Raising his head to gaze at the sky, Zhao Xuanzhen's pupils resembled the boundless starry sky, so deep that their end could not be seen. One by one, the stars lit up, countless golden specks hanging high in the sky, seemingly illuminating the entire world's night into day.

The stars poured into the celestial plate, their dazzling light piling up and pressing together. Nine stars were the most dazzling: the Big Dipper plus the Left and Right Assistants. At this moment, they were frantically absorbing stellar energy, and the veins of the celestial plate's star chart were burning ever brighter, as if they would never reach their limit!

"White clouds last for thousands of years, the sky is vast!"

Tang San lost his composure, his face contorted with rage. On this night of dazzling stars, the power of the stars was boundless, and a single divine thought was insufficient to contend with the celestial sphere.

The Heavenly Star Power manifested as a Restoration Array to prevent him from absorbing the energy of the ocean, further exacerbating his predicament. If Zhao Xuanzhen was not dealt with soon, the divine power left behind by Tang San's divine sense would inevitably be exhausted, forcing him into a deep sleep. He would then be unable to influence the course of Douluo Continent, and even the grand plan spanning ten thousand years would slip out of his control!

As the Trident of the Sea God danced, layers of golden light appeared on Tang San's body. The light gathered into clouds and mist, drifting aimlessly. The flow of time slowed down, and the world changed dramatically!

"null--"

The Golden Thirteen Halberds technique was interrupted, Tang San's movements suddenly stopped, starlight firmly imprisoned him, and time resumed its normal flow!

"The ocean lies prostrate at the feet of the sky, and you are always illuminated by starlight!" Zhao Xuanzhen slowly revealed the truth.

Astrological control is absolutely true!

My system is superior to yours!

"Bind the wicked and lock away evil, seal the Nine Luminaries!"

The Earth Plate commands the elements, the Divine Plate contains divine power, and the Heaven Plate excels at sealing!

Zhao Xuanzhen slammed his palms together, and the star power responded to the call. The celestial star chart condensed into nine rotating star crystal rings, and the powerful star power surged. This energy, born from the vast starry sky, flowed along the star orbits and wove a mysterious sealing star array.

The world seemed to be paused; the seawater stopped surging, the air stopped flowing, and Zhao Xuanzhen walked towards Tang San on the light staircase woven from star power, as the sealing star ring began to take effect.

"A mere seal isn't enough, is it?"

A sigh echoed in the void. Zhao Xuanzhen looked in the direction of the sound and saw a half-black, half-white figure appear between heaven and earth. Although its aura was chaotic, it had clearly transcended the quasi-god realm and ascended to the divine realm.

"You are... the spirit of the Douluo Continent!"

This figure's every move conformed to the laws of heaven and earth; Zhao Xuanzhen could find no other answer but the spirit of this plane!

"Yes."

The Spirit of the Plane looked at Tang San, who was bound by star power, and his eyes flashed with boundless hatred, as if he wanted to tear him apart and sleep with him. He spoke:

"Fate is unpredictable, and my time is limited, so let's get straight to the point."

As long as Tang San remains, the Douluo Continent will never be at peace. Even a mere wisp of his divine thought cannot be allowed to give him a second chance to stir up trouble.

Before the God Realm was caught in the spatial turbulence, Tang San sent a human named Tang Hao into the core of the plane, causing him to devour my body and consciousness and become the new spirit of the Douluo plane.

For thousands of years, I have gradually lost control of Douluo Continent. I thought about self-destructing and taking Tang Hao with me, but that method only addresses the symptoms, not the root cause. As long as Tang San is alive, Zhang Hao and Wang Hao will take my place in the future.

Until you came along, I had a new idea.

While I am still barely conscious, I will burn myself to drag Tang Hao into a deep sleep, buying you time to transcend the shackles of this world, and at the same time granting you the power to annihilate Tang San's divine sense before you!

I will bear the heaviest price for you!

I only ask one thing of you: carry on with my will, help the Douluo Continent break free from Tang San's control, and be reborn!

Zhao Xuanzhen did not agree, but instead asked, "The spirit of the plane, so easily entrusting its future to me, aren't you afraid that I will become the next Tang San?"

The Spirit of the Plane laughed loudly: "Of course I'm afraid, but thinking about it from another perspective, it can't be any worse than the current situation."

Even if it's a gamble with no certainty of success, I will seize the last chance to turn defeat into victory, do everything in my power to plan for future generations, never retreat, and never yield even in the face of death!

"I am the spirit of this plane, and I shall pave a path for the Douluo to survive!"

"I promise you, I will give the mainland a new lease on life."

Zhao Xuanzhen murmured, somewhat moved by the fierceness of the spirit of the plane.

Are you going to burn yourself to drag Tang San and Tang Hao down from their pedestals? You dimensional spirit, you bastard!

Faced with the power of the celestial stars and the spirits of the planes, Tang San's divine sense knew there was no hope of turning the tide. His voice was as cold as poison: "What you have done is meaningless. When the God Realm returns, your blood will stain the Douluo Continent red!"

"Humanity will never yield, nor will it accept the God-King's grand plan for ten thousand years. We swear to fight the evil god to the very end!" Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes blazed with determination.

"Twenty thousand years ago, I was blind and believed you to be the chosen one of this era. Ten thousand years ago, you used your daughter to bind the second chosen one of this era, destroying the Emperor Beast of the Soul Beast Clan," the dimensional spirit said, filled with hatred.

“I remember all of these blood debts!”

I'd rather die than not get justice from you!

The spirit of the plane burst into flames, and intense pain struck. Blood seeped from the cracks in his skin, and the continent wept and wailed as the spirit of the plane burned itself. Amidst the flames, the unwilling roar of a middle-aged man could be faintly heard.

In a desperate exchange of one for two, Tang San's divine sense was annihilated, and Tang Hao within his body was also plunged into a state of severe injury and deep sleep. The spirit of the plane laughed wildly and gleefully, having suppressed his anger for thousands of years, and finally found an opportunity to take revenge on the Tang family!

"Destiny is unpredictable. I have cleared away most of the threats to this continent for you today, but the Abyss, the Demon Hell, and other planes still covet Douluo."

"After I fall into a deep sleep, I am powerless against those enemies; I need you to find a way to deal with them."

As the source gradually burned, the voice of the dimensional spirit grew softer and softer.

"There's another thing. The core of the dimensional life form is facing the same predicament as me. The Blue Silver Emperor is devouring its consciousness and energy."

If you can, please help it; it will give you something in return.

After speaking, the spirit of the plane turned into specks of light and dissipated, while the dazzling seven-colored energy fell towards Zhao Xuanzhen.

"Killing Tang San...this is my last bit of strength!"

The seven-colored light fell into Zhao Xuanzhen's palm. The will of the plane spirit frantically absorbed the vast energy of Douluo Continent. Countless points of light surged from all directions, and the seven-colored light was forged into a spear.

Ancient inscriptions of mountains, rivers, and trees were engraved on the spear shaft, moving up and down like living things. Liquid blood light flowed from the spearhead. Zhao Xuanzhen gripped the seven-colored spear and locked his gaze on Tang San, who was sealed by the Nine Stars of the Heavenly Plate!

Charge up, then throw the gun!

The sky was as black as ink, and a seven-colored spear streaked across the sky like a meteor, leaving a rainbow trail that stretched for hundreds of meters. Wherever the spear passed, tree-like cracks appeared in the space, which continued to extend into the distance. In the fragmented cracks of space, one could vaguely see all things in the world rising and falling.

The Gun of Dimensional Revenge!

The seven-colored spear pierced through his chest, yet not a drop of blood fell. However, Zhao Xuanzhen could clearly see streaks of blue-gold light surging forth from Tang Wulin's body.

Tang San's aura instantly weakened, his blue-gold eyes fixed on Zhao Xuanzhen, and he said coldly and angrily:

"Fate's twists and turns, spirits of the planes! You thought defeating the wisp of divine will I left behind was the end, but I will return once more to rewrite the ending!"

"I'll wait for you, Tang San."

Zhao Xuanzhen spoke calmly and without emotion. From now on, Tang San would no longer interfere in the Douluo Continent. With the return of the God Realm uncertain, he would take this opportunity to cut off the wings of the God King one by one and prepare a grand funeral for Tang San!

In the end, neither of them uttered any more harsh words. They simply stared at each other in silence, as if trying to etch the other deep into their hearts and souls, to forever remember that hatred. They were destined to be enemies to the death!

"boom--"

The blue-gold light shattered, Tang San's divine sense dissipated with the wind, Tang Wulin shuddered, opened his big black eyes, slightly bewildered.

"where am I?"

High in the sky, Tang Wulin stood on the star power that had been gathered by the Heavenly Disc, gazing down at Donghai City, which had shrunk to a small dot. A hint of panic involuntarily showed between his brows.

He was meditating and cultivating in his dormitory in Class Zero when he woke up and suddenly found himself in the sky, with a figure shrouded in clouds standing opposite him!

"who are you?"

Tang Wulin leaned down slightly, forcing himself to remain calm as he spoke. A one-ring Soul Master's weak Soul Power was completely unable to see through Zhao Xuanzhen's deceptive disguise of his true appearance; he could only cautiously probe.

Just as Zhao Xuanzhen was about to speak, he suddenly seemed to sense a change, and his expression instantly turned serious. The next second, Tang Wulin felt an unusually intense surge of energy erupt within his body, and a resounding dragon roar echoed throughout!

The dragon's roar was filled with excitement, rage, resentment, and an endless desire for destruction. Golden light shot straight into the sky, condensing into a huge golden dragon phantom!

The golden dragon was a hundred meters long, with a robust and powerful body. It exuded a rich aura of blood and energy. Its scales resembled glittering golden gems with beautiful spiral patterns, and its blood-red eyes were full of bloodlust and brutality.

Golden Dragon King, riot!

On the golden dragon body of the Golden Dragon King, which meanders and coils, seventeen blue-gold rings shimmer and attract attention, with the thinnest blue-gold ring faintly attached with seven-colored light spots!

"The residual force of that shot just now..."

Zhao Xuanzhen narrowed his eyes slightly. The Golden Dragon King was killed by the combined forces of the God Kings of the God Realm. On his deathbed, he injected his divine core, which contained his great power, into Tang Wulin's body, attempting to exchange one for the other and drag Tang Wulin down to hell with him.

Of course, the Golden Dragon King's plan backfired spectacularly, and his divine core was sealed by Tang San with eighteen layers of seals, turning him into nourishment for Tang Wulin. During this period, Tang Wulin had already broken through the first seal and absorbed a layer of the Golden Dragon King's energy.

The remaining seventeen seals were originally intact, but the spirit of the plane probably hated Tang San to the core. When the seven-colored spear pierced Tang Wulin's chest, it not only annihilated Tang San's divine sense, but also began to tear apart the divine power seals left by Tang San!

"Roar--"

With a roar, the Golden Dragon King shattered the second layer of the seal!

The seventeen seals are interconnected, and Tang Wulin is unable to absorb the second layer of seals at this moment. The Golden Dragon King controls all his energy and fiercely attacks the third seal!

This golden dragon, representing the power and destruction of the Dragon God, is determined to break through all seals and descend upon the mortal realm to destroy the world!

"Old Tang, save me!"

Tang Wulin cried out. As the vessel of the Golden Dragon King's divine core, he was experiencing an unparalleled destructive impact, and his body was on the verge of collapse!

However, the so-called Old Tang has long since vanished, and Tang Wulin's calls are bound to be in vain.

"Old Tang is dead," Zhao Xuanzhen said calmly.

Tang Wulin's face flushed an unnatural red as he struggled to endure the pain inflicted by the Golden Dragon King. His voice trembled as he asked, "Did you do this?"

“Yes.” Zhao Xuanzhen admitted without hesitation, “In his own words, he had already found a way to die.”

"The way to death?" Tang Wulin disliked this phrase; it sounded like a clumsy excuse to pin a crime on someone.

"Do you think Lao Tang is a good person?" Zhao Xuanzhen asked.

"I don't know." Tang Wulin was slightly taken aback. "We've only met a handful of times. He just told me about the spiritual object that could unlock the Golden Dragon King's seal, and I also gained power through the seal."

"Have you ever experienced memory loss, or found yourself inexplicably in a certain place like today?"

Tang Wulin fell silent. Since meeting Old Tang, he had experienced three blackouts.

The first time, shortly after enrolling in Donghai Academy, I was invited by Gu Yue to go to Donghai Park. My memory is of seeing several strange people approaching, but when I woke up, they had all disappeared.

The second time was during the final exam of Class Zero at the Spirit Ascension Platform, where I fought against a genius from the Spirit Pagoda and briefly lost my memory.

Finally, today, I woke up from my cultivation and found myself high in the sky, completely bewildered, with the Golden Dragon King about to break free from its seal.

"You mean... Old Tang is the root of everything, that he took over my body back then?" Tang Wulin was clever and understood Zhao Xuanzhen's hidden meaning.

"That's right, with Old Tang dead, you will no longer be forcibly controlled by him. However, there is a problem now: the Golden Dragon King is rampaging, attacking the seals within your body layer by layer."

If the Golden Dragon King breaks the seal, no one on the Douluo Continent can stop him, and you and all humanity on the Douluo Continent will be plunged into endless death.

"No, I also want to find my parents!"

Reuniting with Tang Ziran and Lang Yue's family was Tang Wulin's greatest wish. He asked anxiously, "Is there no way to reseal the Golden Dragon King?"

"some."

Zhao Xuanzhen nodded slightly: "While the seal is not yet completely broken, apply a second, more stable seal to the Golden Dragon King. The Golden Dragon King's divine core is a treasure of this world, and those who have their eyes on it are not people you can fight against; you cannot protect it."

After the second sealing, I will take over the Golden Dragon King. During this process, your martial spirit will be cleansed by the power leaking from the Golden Dragon King.

Without hesitation, Tang Wulin nodded emphatically: "My parents are waiting for me to come find them. I don't want to die, and I don't want anyone in Douluo Continent to die because of the Golden Dragon King. They also have parents who love them deeply."

The Golden Dragon King gave me power, but also caused a lot of trouble. If my appetite wasn't so terrifying and I hadn't bankrupted my family, my parents wouldn't have disappeared while trying to make money.

Besides, the spiritual items needed to unlock the Golden Dragon King's seal are too expensive. The second seal alone would cost tens of millions of federal dollars. Moreover, without Old Tang, I wouldn't know what spiritual items are needed for the remaining seals, not to mention that others are eyeing the Golden Dragon King.

Possessing a treasure is a crime; if I continue to forcibly contain the Golden Dragon King's divine core, I might even pay with my life.

Take it, I want a peaceful life.

Tang Wulin was very clear-headed, or rather, in his heart, he had grown up safely and found Tang Ziran and her husband, which was greater than the Golden Dragon King's divine core.

"it is good."

Zhao Xuanzhen chuckled: "Suppressing this Dragon King will cost me a lot, but compared to the Dragon King's divine core, a little price is nothing."

The night of twinkling stars was not yet over when the nine stars of the celestial plate suddenly lit up, their starlight trembling and endlessly absorbing the power of the stars. The celestial plate trembled instantly, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on its surface!

The celestial disc shattered!

Zhou Tianxing Power breaks through the limit!

Tang San was merely a wisp of divine thought, while the Golden Dragon King possessed an entire divine core; the difference between the two was an insurmountable chasm.

Fortunately, Tang San did some work, and the seal on the Golden Dragon King was still relatively secure. The Golden Dragon King only managed to break through to the fifth level of the seal!
