Douluo: When Tang Wulin Met Little Huo Niang

Chapter 490: Traveling through time and space, the Dragon God's Divine Test (6k)

"of course not."

Tang Wulin denied it without hesitation.

"Whether you give me your soul bone or not, I will definitely find a way to restore your power and try to revive you in the future."

This time, the Space Dragon King looked a little surprised.

She raised her eyebrows and asked curiously:
"But wouldn't you be at a disadvantage? I'm not going to give you my dragon bone, and you're still going to find a way to repay me?"

"not at all."

Tang Wulin smiled gently, his smile was very sunny.

"All my strength comes from the Dragon Clan. Without the help of all the Dragon Clan elders, I wouldn't be where I am today. Therefore, I have long planned to find a way to repay the entire Dragon Clan when I have enough strength. So in my eyes, there is no such thing as a loss or not. After all, this is a decision that has been made long ago, and it will not change regardless of whether you help me or not. Of course, if you can give me a soul bone, my growth rate will be accelerated, which is even better."

"..."

After hearing his words, the Space Dragon King fell silent.

She looked into Tang Wulin's eyes with unprecedented seriousness, as if she wanted to find clues of lies in his eyes.

However, contrary to her wishes, no matter how she looked at Tang Wulin, she only saw sincerity in his eyes.

After a long time, the Space Dragon King seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. After a long sigh, he covered his face with one hand and waved the other hand helplessly at Tang Wulin.

"Alright, alright. I lost, so I said I'm not good at dealing with people like you and Big Asshole Brother. No wonder that guy fell for you. You two are exactly the same."

"Forehead……"

Tang Wulin felt a little annoyed.

It seems that the Space Dragon King is willing to give him the dragon bone, which makes him very happy.

But thinking back to the weird face of the Light Dragon King, he wanted to complain: How on earth is he like him?

Regardless of what he was thinking, the Space Dragon King suddenly asked him a question he was not expecting.

"You said you came back from the future, right?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Ah."

The Space Dragon King sneered, a weird smile on his face.

"Nothing, do you want to go back to your own time and space?"

"Really? Can you help me get back?!"

Tang Wulin excitedly took a step forward and suddenly appeared in front of her.

His speed scared the Space Dragon King. She subconsciously took two steps back and nodded nervously.

"Of course, this kind of thing is just a piece of cake for me. Ah, but with my power, you can only stay there for a maximum of ten years. Whether you are willing or not, you will come back immediately when the time is up. And when you go there, the passage of time here is almost static, so no matter how long you stay there, when you come back, less than five minutes will have passed here. How about it, what do you think?"

The more she spoke, the more arrogant her expression became, and by the end she resumed her attitude of "I'm the best in the world."

Tang Wulin subconsciously wanted to agree.

After all, his parents are still there, and he hasn't seen their faces for ten years. He really wants to see them again.

However, at this moment, he suddenly thought of something and quickly turned around, just in time to meet Huo Yutong's eyes.

Although she adjusted her expression in an instant, Tang Wulin still caught a glimpse of loneliness in her eyes.

For her, even though it felt like less than five minutes, she still felt a little uncomfortable about missing out on Tang Wulin's ten years.

His heart suddenly calmed down.

He took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice:

"Can I take someone there and bring someone back?"

He was prepared to receive a negative answer from the Space Dragon King.

Unexpectedly, the Space Dragon King nodded very briskly.

"Of course, who do you think I am? But the number of people cannot be too large, no more than five at most."

This answer far exceeded Tang Wulin's expectations, but it also made him feel relieved.

He breathed a sigh of relief, turned around to look at Huo Yutong, smiled comfortably, and then nodded heavily to the Space Dragon King.

"Okay, we are willing. Please, teleport Yutong and me over."

"okay!"

Seeing Tang Wulin's affirmative answer, the Space Dragon King suddenly revealed a strange smile. She waved towards the huge dragon bone, and suddenly a strong silver light burst out from it.

Then, silver light slowly peeled out from it and condensed into an exquisite silver wing.

"You already have all six soul bones in your body, so it is not convenient for me to give you a normal soul bone. So I will give you a wing-type external soul bone for the last soul bone. You must use it well."

After she finished speaking, she snapped her fingers suddenly, and the silver wings turned into a stream of light and shot into Tang Wulin's body.

"Okay, go ahead! I wish you a safe journey!"

A strong silver light suddenly burst out from Tang Wulin, enveloping both him and Huo Yutong. Then a strong light flashed by, and the figures of the two disappeared from the bottom of the Hell Valley.

Only one person was left behind.

The Light Dragon King's body was so fading at this moment that it was almost disappearing. When he found out that he was left behind, he had an expression of disbelief.

"Huh? Huh?! Why didn't I go with them!"

The Space Dragon King gave a mocking smile.

"Because he said that the only person he would take with him is his girlfriend, but not you, my dear brother."

When she said the last three words, she emphasized the pronunciation deliberately.

The Bright Dragon King suddenly showed a solemn expression. He coughed twice and changed the subject:
"Wait, Xiaobai, you're lying, right?"

"Oh?"

The Space Dragon King didn't seem to mind that he had changed the subject and raised his eyebrows with interest.

"how you said that?"

The Bright Dragon King said seriously:
"As far as I know, you can only control space, not time, so time travel is beyond your power. You must have lied just now, am I right?"

"Ah."

The Space Dragon King smiled and replied:
"You're right. That kid hasn't realized yet that what he experienced wasn't time travel, but space jump. His original world and our world are two parallel worlds."

"In fact, with my current strength, I can't send people across parallel worlds, but he is different. He has coordinates on him. I can directly send him to the time when he disappeared from his world. When he comes back, there will be almost no time passing on our side because he directly returns to our current coordinate point."

"Hehe, although the differences between parallel worlds are often very subtle, they do exist. I'm very curious about the differences between his two worlds. I'm also very curious about what kind of waves he will stir up over there when he doesn't know the truth about the parallel world. It's interesting to think about it, isn't it?"

Looking at the Space Dragon King with a smirk on his face, the Light Dragon King couldn't help but sigh.

"You really have a lot of bad taste."

"Huh? You still have the nerve to say that to me?"

The Space Dragon King had an amused expression on his face.

"Have you forgotten that you are just a remnant soul now, and you have no ability to resist me at all?"

"Uh...I was wrong."

A man of insight is a hero. The Light Dragon King admitted his mistake without hesitation.

But unfortunately, the Space Dragon King was still unwilling to let him go.

"Hehe, it's too late. Let's just get along well in these few minutes, my dear brother~"

…………

The moment Tang Wulin was hit by the silver light transformed from the dragon wings of the Space Dragon King, he had actually lost consciousness.

To be more precise, it is impossible to be aware of things in the real world.

He first felt a heat on his back, and the dragon wings of the Space Dragon King merged with his own golden dragon wings at an astonishing speed, promoting each other's evolution. Just like the dragon bones of the Dark Dragon King, the fusion was completed easily.

But what happened next wasn't so good.

After the power of the Space Dragon King was integrated into his body, he felt the other six soul bones in his body begin to heat up together.

This kind of fever was not an ordinary fever, but it instantly rose to a level that almost melted his body.

Six warm currents emanated from different parts of his body, combined with the dragon wings behind him, and successfully merged into one.

Then, his feelings changed again, and different parts of the keel all gave him different feelings.

The burning left arm, the moist right arm, the light and comfortable left leg, the cold and dark right leg, the warm and comfortable forehead, the torso as steady as a mountain, and the back that never stops changing, the different feelings brought by the seven soul bones suddenly confused his perception, and he almost got lost in this strange feeling.

Fortunately, Tang Wulin had successfully endured the baptism of multiple Golden Dragon King seals, and his resistance to painful feelings was stronger than that of ordinary people. He concentrated his mind and resisted the erosion of the strange feelings.

He knew that this was not a solution, so he tried to bring the seven forces together completely.

This is not an easy task, but fortunately he has spent most of the past year or so on condensing the second soul core that complements yin and yang. He does similar things frequently, so he can be said to be familiar with it and is very skilled in doing it.

Under the control of the golden airflow headed by him, the seven forces were gradually mobilized and slowly condensed together.

However, to his surprise, these eight forces seemed unable to merge completely. After condensing together, they soon became unstable, giving him a feeling that they would explode at any time.

What's wrong? Is this method wrong?

Tang Wulin was very confused.

But seeing that the eight forces that had gathered together were about to explode, he made up his mind and did not disperse them, but added his own vitality into it.

In his opinion, it was the power of the dragon bones of the seven dragon kings that was causing trouble. The reason for the unstable situation was that the power of the Golden Dragon King, who was controlled by him, was not strong enough to completely suppress the combined power of the seven dragon kings.

In this case, let's add another powerful medicine. Don't forget that the attribute of Tang Wulin's first soul core is the attribute of life. Vitality is one of the strongest attributes for him. With the attribute of life, many things will become much easier.

But when the life attribute was added to the battlefield, something happened that Tang Wulin had never expected.

When the seven dragon kings' powers saw the life attribute, they pounced on it as if they had seen their master, and surrounded it. Then, each of the seven powers separated a small part and merged with Tang Wulin's life force.

Afterwards, Tang Wulin's life attribute that was originally used to control the power of the seven dragon kings was completely integrated with them and turned silver.

The moment the silver appeared, Tang Wulin's body trembled violently, and blood began to seep out of his seven orifices.

But he did not feel any pain. On the contrary, he even felt very light all over, and his mental state was almost the best in his life.

The silver color formed by the fusion of the eight forces, the gold color of Tang Wulin, and the remaining power of the seven dragon kings, a total of nine colors gathered together, achieving a wonderful balance.

Afterwards, Tang Wulin felt a strong white light flashing in his mind, which made him lose consciousness.

When he came to his senses, he found himself in an empty white space.

There is no one here but himself.

After all, he had experienced too many storms, so he did not panic, but observed the surrounding environment vigilantly and carefully.

The pure white color was endless, and he couldn't even tell whether he was standing on the ground. Tang Wulin only felt that there was only white in front of him, extending endlessly in all directions.

Fortunately, this white color was not dazzling, and Tang Wulin did not feel any discomfort.

At this moment, a voice sounded.

"I see. That's how you came to terms."

Tang Wulin's whole body trembled and he looked around vigilantly.

"Who?"

This voice gave him a very strange feeling, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where it was.

"Hehehe."

The mysterious voice laughed with great pleasure.

"Who am I? Yes, this is a good question, but for convenience, you can call me Dragon God now."

"!"

Tang Wulin's eyes suddenly widened.

He had heard the term Dragon God too many times, but he didn't really know much about him. He basically just knew that he was the most powerful Beast God, and the most important information came from the Frost Spirit Bi'an.

To summarize the information from Frost Spirit Bi'an, countless years ago, a war suddenly broke out in the God Realm. After that war, the Dragon God mysteriously died, but the cause, process and outcome are unknown - because Frost Spirit Bi'an was besieged and killed by multiple first-level god-level enemies at the beginning of the war.

The Bright Dragon King, who actually knew the whole story, remained silent about what happened for some reason, so that Tang Wulin still has no idea about the specific image of the Dragon God.

He actually saw the legendary Dragon God, which means he is not dead?
Before Tang Wulin could sort out his thoughts, a person suddenly appeared not far in front of him.

When he saw that person, Tang Wulin couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

Because this person looks exactly like him.

Tall figure, handsome face, jet-black hair. If one had to say what the difference was, it was that the expression of this "Tang Wulin" was very uninhibited, and his temperament was completely different from Tang Wulin's.

The Dragon God laughed and said:

"I've read your memories, so for convenience, I borrowed your image. What's wrong? Don't you like it?"

Seeing the Dragon God's current state, Tang Wulin suddenly realized why he felt that the other party's voice was very familiar just now.

Because that's his voice.

According to the knowledge taught by Shrek Academy, the voice a person hears is different from the voice heard by others, because the medium through which it is transmitted is different.

This is also why Tang Wulin did not react to the source of the sound immediately.

He asked somewhat cautiously:

"Your Excellency Dragon God, what do you want to do by calling me here?"

The Dragon God was stunned for a moment, then sighed helplessly.

"Hey, haven't you reacted yet? I didn't call you here, you took the initiative to come here to find me."

"?"

Seeing that Tang Wulin still hadn't reacted, the Dragon God smiled bitterly.

"Well, think about it carefully. You have never been exposed to the concept of 'divine test' before, so it is natural that you cannot understand it."

He spread his hands and explained:
"Let me put it this way. Generally speaking, if you want to inherit the throne of God, you need to pass the corresponding assessment. And you have achieved the most basic condition of inheriting the throne of Dragon God by collecting the power of life and the power of the seven elemental dragon kings. That's why you came to this space. After all, this space is what I prepared when I was alive so that I could pass on the throne of God one day."

Tang Wulin asked doubtfully:

"And what about you? You are not completely dead?"

"No, I'm really dead."

The Dragon God scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly and said with a smile:

"This me is not the residual soul of the Dragon God as you imagine, but a piece of data, a piece of data that records my behavior style when I was young. As long as someone starts the Dragon God's Divine Test, I will appear. Apart from the fact that my personality and memories are basically the same as when he was young, I have basically no relationship with the Dragon God himself."

"Is this, like this?"

Tang Wulin only half understood what he heard, but he finally understood that this Dragon God was not the real one.

He took a deep breath and asked:

"Then, as long as I pass your test, I can inherit the throne of the Dragon God, right?"

"Yes."

The Dragon God nodded slightly, confirming his question.

Tang Wulin immediately asked:
"How many tests are there? What is the first test? I will definitely complete it."

His eyes were very determined.

The gap between him and Huo Yutong is now very large. Although it cannot be seen on the surface, his heart is actually full of desire for power.

There are two great gods, Frost Spirit Bi'an and Alex, inside Huo Yutong's body.

Frost Spirit Bi'an is the Ice God himself, and he also carries the complete Ice God throne on him. As long as he and Huo Yutong are willing, he can pass the Ice God throne to Huo Yutong now.

Although Alex did not have a deity, he was only one step away from becoming a god during his lifetime. He also taught Huo Yutong the skill of the God of Death. Even if a God of Death really became a deity in the future, Tang Wulin would not be surprised at all.

In contrast, he couldn't even see the hope of becoming a god, which made him desperately crave for power.

As long as he can inherit the throne of Dragon God, no matter how difficult the so-called Dragon God test is, he will risk his life to complete it.

The Dragon God smiled helplessly:
"Okay, don't get so excited, you've already completed the first test."

"Ugh?"

Tang Wulin's eyes instantly turned suspicious.

When did he finish it? Why doesn't he remember it?
He thought about it carefully again, but still couldn't figure out when he passed the first test of the Dragon God's Divine Exam, so he had to ask the Dragon God:
"Um...what is the content of the first test?"

The Dragon God smiled and said:
"It's very simple. Just come to this space."

"……what?"

Tang Wulin couldn't quite understand.

“Is the order reversed?”

Aren't those who enter this dimension eligible to take the divine test? Why is entering this dimension the first test of the divine test?

The Dragon God said helplessly:
"Because it is not easy to gain the recognition of the Dragon God. There are basically only two ways. Either you combine the power of the Gold and Silver Dragon Kings to form the pure Dragon God bloodline again, or you gather the power of the various Dragon Kings like you did, gather the powers I distributed to each child, and piece together a complete power worthy of the Dragon God. Since this process is too difficult, I set it as the content of the first test. You can think of it as a reward for your hard work during this period. But I suggest you don't take it lightly, because there are still eight tests to come."

"……I see."

Tang Wulin finally understood.

In other words, the first test is for him to collect the dragon bones and life force of the seven dragon kings.

And after that there are eight tests that are more difficult than this one.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes immediately, and asked:

"What is the content of the second test?"

The Dragon God did not answer him immediately, but raised his eyebrows.

"I will tell you later, but before that, don't you want to know the reward for passing the first test?"

"Is there any reward?"

"It's natural."

The Dragon God stroked his chin and stared at Tang Wulin for a while, and finally nodded as if he had suddenly thought of a good idea.

"Got it. Aren't you preparing to break through to the Title Douluo level? I'll give you a soul core."

"?"

Before Tang Wulin could react, the Dragon God poked out a finger at his heart at a speed that he couldn't react to.

Suddenly, Tang Wulin felt a sharp pain coming from his heart, and his consciousness became blurred.

In this state of blurred consciousness, only the words of the Dragon God echoed clearly in his mind.

"Since the rewards for the first test have been given, let's talk about the content of the second test."

"Looking at your memory, you are on your way to your time now, right?"

"That's perfect. The power of the dragon kings other than the Golden Dragon King is still too weak. It will be difficult for you to inherit my throne in the end. Your second test is to collect the soul bones of the seven dragon kings again and merge them with the soul bones in your body."

"As the soul bones are exactly the same, I believe it won't be difficult for you to fuse them together."

"That's it then. The next time we meet will be when you finish the second test. I wish you a safe journey and good luck."

Hearing this, the overwhelming pain that almost tore his brain apart completely overwhelmed Tang Wulin's consciousness, causing him to sink into deep darkness.
