Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 226 Gu Yue and Na'er plot to eat meat, Ling Zichen, a mortal, is comparable to a god!

As the last rays of the setting sun disappeared, a cold, dark blue slicing through the remaining orange-red of the sky. Shrek City lit up with lights from every home, and the streets, like a long dragon, were filled with people strolling leisurely. The aroma of delicious food wafting from the houses on both sides of the inner city enticed passersby.

The two fathers-in-law and the son-in-law gradually returned to the tea room.

What Nan Liujing saw was Ye Xinglan chatting happily with Song Miyun. Her eyes were still a little red, but her smile was very bright.

Ye Changming was stunned for a moment.

Nan Liujing immediately sent a telepathic explanation.

"Thank you." Ye Changming looked at the affection between his daughter and Song Miyun and understood what was going on.

“It’s what I should do,” Nan Liujing said earnestly.

Wu Jingru smiled and put her arm around her brother's shoulder: "Continue drinking tea."

After the two brothers left, Wu Siduo transmitted her voice, "I helped a lot, I should get some reward, right?"

Nan Liujing calmly replied telepathically, "What reward?"

Wu Siduo licked her rosy lips but didn't say anything.

Nan Liujing felt a surge of anger rising in his lower abdomen, but he didn't say anything.

When it's almost time...

Led by a waiter from Yunyanlou, the whole family went to a private room to enjoy a delicious dinner.

Nan Liujing didn't hesitate to take out two jars of Black Dragon Wine.

This is a top-grade wine specially made by the Beast God. Ye Changming and Wu Jingru are both wine lovers, and after just one sip, they fell madly in love with it.

The aroma of fine wine tempted them, and they couldn't resist asking Nan Liujing to buy some.

Upon hearing the request, Nan Liujing immediately regretted serving Black Dragon Wine.

Not long ago, Di Tian had been secretly complaining that he didn't have enough Black Dragon Brew to drink, and Gu Yue had given it all away.

He's a beast god, after all; we can't afford to be disrespectful.

Nan Liujing could only find an excuse to temporarily appease his father-in-law.

After the meal, Nan Liujing led Ye Xinglan and Wu Siduo to say goodbye to the three elders.

The three of them walked into the bright lights and bustling crowd of the food street, chatting and laughing.

...

In Gu Yue's private office in the Heavenly Spirit Tower, looking at the projected image of Na'er, she said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry to see me? What do you want?"

Na'er leaned closer to Gu Yue, "How about we team up once?"

Gu Yue asked in confusion, "Cooperation? What kind of cooperation do we have?"

Na'er said excitedly, "Brother took away the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, while we possess the bloodline of the Silver Dragon King. If yin and yang combine but do not choose to merge, the two bloodlines will collide and cause a change in the primordial energy of heaven and earth. Then, by relying on the heart of the Dragon God to purify this primordial energy, it will be enough to benefit the three of us. Both our cultivation and spiritual power will increase dramatically."

Gu Yue's eyes were sharp. After thinking it over carefully, he immediately said, "Okay, I can agree to that."

Na'er excitedly waved her small, white fist.

Gu Yue rested her left elbow on the table, her palm supporting her cheek, and said with a faint smile, "But you should know that for Yin and Yang to unite, the Silver Dragon King's bloodline must remain intact. In other words, if we want to help our senior brother, we must become one."

Na'er looked alert.

Gu Yue revealed a confident smile and said, "We can temporarily merge, but I will take control of the consciousness. After all, I have more Silver Dragon King bloodline."

"No way." Na'er shook her head like a rattle drum. "With your personality, I won't even get a sip of soup before it's all over and I regain consciousness."

Gu Yue's star-like eyes remained calm: "Alright, then think of a way."

Gu Yue chuckled inwardly. She remained calm and collected, determined to enjoy this prize alone. She walked to the front of all her sisters.

Na'er paced back and forth, occasionally tapping her head. Suddenly, her eyes lit up: "I've got it!"

Gu Yue frowned instantly, thinking that this shouldn't be the case.

Na'er chuckled and said, "After the Yin and Yang begin to merge, the two bloodlines will naturally fuse together. If they are unwilling to merge, it will cause chaotic collisions, which will then cause changes in the elemental energy of heaven and earth. Each change caused by the chaotic collision will, without fail, complete a cycle of 105 seconds, and 20 cycles will form a complete set. After that, we can stop to catch our breath and then reactivate our bloodlines to enter a new cycle. In other words, we each control a portion of the Silver Dragon King's bloodline. You occupy 70 seconds out of the 105 seconds, I occupy 30 seconds, and the remaining 5 seconds can be used to switch places."

"So, is this okay?"

Gu Yue clenched her right hand tightly. She hadn't expected Na'er to actually discover her special method. She said in a deep voice, "If we can't switch positions successfully within five seconds, all our efforts will be in vain. We should use the safest method..."

"Five seconds to switch positions, that's plenty of time, isn't it?" Na'er put her hands on her hips, looking smug. "With brother's accuracy in spiritual realm spiritual power, he can definitely find the right position in an instant."

Gu Yue's plan to enjoy everything alone has been thwarted, making it hard not to be happy.

Gu Yue was extremely disappointed and snorted, "Fine, let's do it this way then." Anyway, she would definitely eat the first bite of meat, so it wasn't a loss.

Na'er ran up to Gu Yue excitedly and asked, "When do we start?"

Gu Yue glanced at Na'er, whose face was flushed, and said irritably, "What's your rush? I'm busy working on the Heavenly Forging Metal these days. I'll make the arrangements when I have some free time. Just wait."

“Alright then.” Na’er nodded.

After saying that, the projection disappeared instantly. Na'er was still with Ya Li at the Xuanmen, and had not yet returned to the Heavenly Spirit Tower.

Gu Yue picked up the pen and twirled it between her fingers, feeling somewhat lightheaded.

Just thinking about the role-switching scenario Na'er described made her beautiful, gentle face flush instantly.

...

The Myriad Beasts Small Dimension.

The tranquil lake is remarkably similar to the once life-giving lake of the Starry Sky Forest.

Above the lake, a hollow halo appeared out of nowhere, from which a massive torrent of life surged forth.

The colossal Titan Ape sat motionless, a continuous stream of green-gold radiance flowing into its body. Beside it stood another enormous Azure Divine Dragon, similarly frantically absorbing the life energy transmitted from Douluo Star.

After a long time, the halo stopped emitting the torrent of life, and the two rulers of the minor planes gradually awoke.

This process will need to be maintained for some time. After all, the torrent of life is too vast and is mixed with the power of the laws of Douluo Star. It cannot be consumed all at once and must be done step by step.

Niu Tian's voice boomed: "Second brother, how's the matter Tang San entrusted to you going?"

Opening his golden eyes, Titan said in a muffled voice, "The person did manage to emerge alive from another minor plane, but his whereabouts are unpredictable, and he is always accompanied by a powerful figure lurking in the shadows whose strength is no less than mine. It's really difficult to take action against him."

Niu Tian said in a deep voice, "For Tang San to be so wary, this kid might grow to the point of looking at us as equals in a few years. He's really troublesome."

Titan looked up at his elder brother and said, "Brother, if we can rely on this batch of life energy to stabilize the minor plane, can our strength temporarily recover to the level of a priest?"

Niu Tian's eyes narrowed: "It seems... feasible."

Titan laughed and said, "Since it's feasible, then there's no problem. I don't believe that kid can grow to the level of a god in just two or three years. Besides, with Auntie helping us reduce the life essence intensity of Douluo Star, the Abyss Plane might launch an attack ahead of time. Once we deal with the Lord of the Abyss, and then let Uncle Tang take action, that kid might not even need us to lift a finger."

Niu Tian raised his beast head, a hundred meters above the ground, and gazed at the dark, deep forest.

For some reason, he had a bad feeling, as if someone was trying to ambush him on the road ahead.

Titan changed the subject, asking, "Brother, what did the Silver Dragon King say?"

Niu Tian looked down and said, "We're just waiting for the ten-thousand-year-old soul to be pushed out."

Titan said coldly, "Our soul beast race has suffered a great loss, so it's time for these humans to suffer a loss too. As long as the plan goes smoothly, these humans will be implanted with spiritual seeds, which will be enough to ensure that Douluo Star remains under our control until Tang San returns."

Niu Tian nodded noncommittally.

"Alright, let's not delay. Let's join forces and quickly integrate the life energy we just absorbed into this small plane."

"it is good."

...

Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the specially designed forging room, as the terrifying thunderclouds dissipated, various elemental halos still lingered in the air.

On the forging table cast by the Heavenly Forging Metal, lay two pieces of five-element fusion-grade Heavenly Forging Metal. Each piece seemed to be exquisitely crafted, and the aura brewing inside was exceptionally solid.

If it were put into an auction, even the lowest-level auction, it would immediately be promoted to the top level.

"knock off."

Gently stroking the Heavenly Forged Metal that radiated joy, Nan Liujing smiled. This was already the hundredth piece of Heavenly Forged Metal he had forged, almost surpassing Zhenhua's achievements over many years. Furthermore, in the past three months, Nan Liujing's cultivation had successfully reached level ninety. However, having decided to fuse his ninth soul ring with Niu Tian's, he forcibly restricted the Time-Space Behemoth from producing its ninth soul ring.

With a gentle wave of his hand, the metal fell into his storage ring. Nan Liujing turned and walked out of the forging room, quickly arriving at Leng Yaozhu's office.

Over the course of three months, with the establishment of a channel proposed by Leng Yaozhu for obtaining Heavenly Forging Metal exclusively for the higher-ups of the Spirit Pagoda, the entire Spirit Pagoda quickly shed its bloated state from the era of the Ancient East Wind.

There are quite a few people who want to become four-word battle armor masters, and they work desperately to earn more contribution points.

In addition, Gu Yue and his research and development team have successfully completed the project of creating thousands of different types of ten-thousand-year-old artificial soul spirits, basically meeting the requirements for launching ten-thousand-year-old soul spirits on the market.

Meanwhile, the Myriad Beast Platform, which the Spirit Pagoda was secretly researching, was also progressing steadily. According to Di Tian, ​​Niu Tian and Titan had temporarily lost contact with them, presumably because they had entered the final stage of fusing life energy.

"it's over?"

Seeing her disciple approaching wearily, Leng Yaozhu, holding a hot coffee, smiled and spoke.

Nan Liujing walked forward without any politeness, first putting down his storage ring, then snatching the coffee that Leng Yaozhu had drunk from and gulping it down in one go.

Leng Yaozhu said irritably, "I've already drunk it."

Nan Liujing praised, "No wonder it tastes even better."

Leng Yaozhu laughed and said softly, "Zang Xin just called and wants to invite you to Xuanmen."

"It must be in search of Heavenly Forged Metal," Nan Liujing said.

Leng Yaozhu said, "Zang Xin and Cao Dezhi have almost completely opened the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to you, so it's time to repay them."

"I'll be there in a bit." Nan Liujing was not an ungrateful person.

Leng Yaozhu nodded, her expression becoming more serious, and asked, "Has there been any news from Yu Lai?"

“Yes.” Upon hearing this, Nan Liujing’s eyes immediately turned solemn. “She has revealed the last few evil soul masters hidden in the Blood God Legion. I have already informed Mirror Douluo, and he is discussing the detailed start time of the plan with Amorous Douluo and Divine Brush Douluo.”

Leng Yaozhu said coldly, "Thousands of years ago, the Abyss caught us off guard. This time, we must catch them off guard."

A cold glint appeared in Nan Liujing's eyes.

"this is for you."

Changing the subject, Leng Yaozhu casually pulled out a card.

"What's this?" Nan Liujing asked curiously as he took it. After a closer look, he discovered that it was actually a very famous resort in Shrek City.

Leng Yaozhu spun around in her rocking chair, her long, shapely legs, seemingly longer than life itself, crossed over. She said in a seductive voice, "You've had a tough few months, so your teacher has decided to reward you."

Nan Liujing slowly raised his head, met Leng Yaozhu's eyes, and chuckled, "That's strange, you never agreed to go on dates with me before."

A strange look flashed across Leng Yaozhu's eyes as she instructed, "Remember to be there on time."

"Mm." Nan Liujing suppressed his inner joy and responded, then immediately left the Heavenly Spirit Tower and headed towards the Xuanmen headquarters.

After Nan Liujing left, Leng Yaozhu slowly took out her cell phone: "Tonight, it's up to you to see how you perform."

"Thank you, teacher."

A clear, cold female voice, barely suppressing excitement, came from the other end of the phone.

The call ended, and Leng Yaozhu couldn't help but smile.

Let them all compete; first place is hers anyway.

...

To Nan Liujing's surprise, all four halls of the Xuanmen sect, plus the deputy sect leader Zang Xin, came to greet him.

"Senior," Nan Liujing said, bowing.

Zang Xin subtly sensed Nan Liujing's aura, but unable to reach a conclusion, he said with a gleam in his eyes, "I apologize for the sudden intrusion."

His tone was very polite, and he no longer regarded Nan Liujing as a junior, but as an equal.

Nan Liujing understood and maintained his smile: "Senior, you're being too polite."

Zang Xin extended his hand and said with a faint smile, "Please."

"Please." Nan Liujing returned the gesture by extending his hand.

The two walked in front, followed by the four hall masters.

Deep inside the Xuanmen headquarters, they didn't encounter many people, but without exception, everyone possessed a powerful aura, at least at the Soul King level or above.

Some of the younger generation of Xuanmen disciples also saw Nan Liujing, and after the group left, they gathered together and discussed it in hushed tones.

The meeting was held in the council hall. When they arrived, there was already someone sitting inside, and Nan Liujing took a few more glances at this person.

The woman wore a dress on top and black knee-high socks on the bottom. Her long black hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin. She wore black-rimmed glasses, had delicate features, a wheatish complexion, and a cluster of freckles under her eyes.

She had abundant blood and energy, but no spiritual power aura about her body, clearly indicating that she was an ordinary person. What was rather peculiar was her figure.

Her waist was very slender, but her hips were unusually large and perky, which, combined with her equally long legs, made her look very sexy.

Ling Zichen.

A name immediately popped into Nan Liujing's mind.

Throughout the entire Douluo series, she is the only one who, despite being a mortal, is comparable to a god.

He was also the greatest contributor to the rapid development of aviation technology by the Tang Sect after Tang Wulin's suicide in the original timeline.

"This is Ling Zichen. She is the director of our Xuanmen Aerospace Technology Department and also serves as the director of the Soul-Guided Artillery Shell Research Institute," Zang Xin introduced.

"Hello," Ling Zichen greeted him casually.

Nan Liujing responded calmly.

I've formed a preliminary judgment about this conversation.

As expected, after everyone sat down, Zang Xin got straight to the point: "The main reason I asked you to meet me today is for one thing."

"Please speak," Nan Liujing said.

Ling Zichen's eyes flickered, and Zang Xin said in a deep voice, "Because of your existence, I believe that the humans of Douluo Star will definitely be able to go out and witness the vast universe in the future. But the first thing we need to do after leaving Douluo Star is to have a sufficiently powerful energy core. In recent years, our Xuanmen has been researching the corresponding technology, but unfortunately, the progress has been too slow."

Nan Liujing suddenly realized that Zang Xin's purpose for this trip was clear.

Zang Xin said, "I know you have a close relationship with the Divine Brush Douluo. Could you please help smooth things over? If so, we hope to cooperate with the Federation to conduct joint research on the energy core."

Nan Liujing stated bluntly, "Is it because the Federation has long since sealed off the research technology for the metal source?"

Upon hearing this, Zang Xin, the four hall masters, and even Ling Zichen could no longer remain seated.

They never expected that Nan Liujing would guess their purpose so easily.

Nan Liujing calmly said, "I will speak to Senior Shenbi, but I cannot guarantee whether he will grant permission."

Zang Xin said solemnly, "It's enough for us if you can help us put in a good word."

Nanliu Scenic Spot nodded: "In that case, I'll take my leave now."

"Wait a minute." Ling Zichen suddenly stood up, his voice slightly urgent.

Nan Liujing turned to look at her.

Ling Zichen said in a deep voice, "If possible, please do not use up all the God-Slaying Fixed-Mount Soul-Guided Cannonballs when dealing with the Abyss. If you can save one, I swear on my life that it will shorten the time it takes for humanity to enter outer space by hundreds or even thousands of years."

Nan Liujing gave her a deep look, while Ling Zichen's tone became much more friendly: "Please."

Nan Liujing didn't say anything and left the council hall directly.

After he left, Ling Zichen sat down with a worried expression. "The God-Slaying Shells are made by combining the most advanced metal source research technology. If we use them all, it will be a huge loss for us."

Zang Xin patted her on the shoulder: "If it's for the sake of humanity, perhaps he can be of help."

Ling Zichen looked up at Zang Xin, who resembled a father, and suppressed the pride of a top scientist, saying hopefully, "I hope so."

“Vice Sect Master, given the Federation’s hostility towards us, it’s highly unlikely that our initiative to seek cooperation with them will succeed.”

Liang Xiaoyu, the head of Mintang, couldn't help but complain.

Zang Xin stood with his hands behind his back. "Who knows what the outcome will be for something that hasn't been done yet? Let's wait and see."
