Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

……

As the nine-colored dragon cocoon completely collapsed, two figures appeared in the center of the forbidden land.

Gu Yuena floated in the air, her silver hair moving without wind, surrounded by nine-colored divine light. Her aura was vast and boundless, like the origin of the universe at its beginning, and even faintly surpassed any of the god-kings in the temple.

She succeeded. With Xuanming's unwavering help, she fully inherited the power of the Dragon God and achieved a new and unique position as the Dragon God.

Although her aura was still fluctuating violently and had not yet fully stabilized, there was no doubt that she had stepped into that legendary realm.

Xuanming's aura was even more peculiar. He stood quietly, with no energy emanating from his body, looking just like an ordinary person.

However, when the divine senses of the five god-kings swept over it, it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, unable to fathom its depths.

He seemed to exist in his own world, independent of the rules of the divine realm, but that elusive, all-denying essence made the god-kings feel a stirring from the depths of their souls.

They couldn't determine Xuanming's exact level of cultivation, but they were certain that he was no weaker than Gu Yuena at this moment.

Xuanming ignored the prying eyes from the outside world, his gaze gently falling on his own chest.

There, two extremely faint, almost extinguished dragon patterns were quietly imprinted, one ice blue and the other crimson.

Those were the last traces left by the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King.

“It’s time,” Xuanming said softly.

He stretched out his hand, his palm facing the two marks. Pure white divine energy, containing the power of negation and domination, slowly surged out, like the gentlest spring rain, nourishing the seeds that were about to dry up.

Gu Yuena also came to his side, stretched out her jade hand, and the powerful Nine-Colored Dragon God's power surged forth.

Two completely different supreme divine powers have now perfectly merged together, forming a creative power beyond imagination.

"Wake up." Xuanming's voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to contain the power of law that made his words come true.

Om-!
The icy blue dragon soul mark suddenly lit up, and a familiar yet weak consciousness awakened from it.

"...Brother?"

The Ice Dragon King's voice echoed in Xuanming's spiritual sea, carrying a hint of bewilderment and disbelief.

Xuanming's eyes were slightly moist, but he couldn't help but smile: "I'm back, Sister Bing."

The joy of their reunion needed no words. The Ice Dragon King could sense the vast, ocean-like power emanating from Xuanming, and he understood the immense effort Xuanming had made to resurrect him. That resolute sacrifice had ultimately not been in vain.

"You've got a conscience, kid." The Ice Dragon King's voice regained some of its former arrogance, but the excitement and satisfaction within it were undeniable.

Xuanming smiled and said nothing more, instead focusing all his attention on reshaping the dragon soul.

Under the combined influence of Xuanming's divine power that governs all things and Guyuena's dragon god power that contains the origin of life, the dragon souls of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King began to condense and recover at an incredible speed.

The illusory soul gradually solidified, and the original imprint, which was on the verge of dissipation, was rapidly strengthened as if it had been infused with boundless vitality.

This process has transcended a simple resurrection; it is a complete sublimation! The aura of the divine realm emanated from the two dragon souls, but the upward momentum did not weaken in the slightest.

Level Two God!
First level god!

Peak of Level One Godhood!

Finally, with the infusion of the two supreme divine powers, the dragon souls of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King condensed into a complete divine soul body. With a roar, they broke through the final barrier and steadily remained at the God King realm!

After their fall, the two Dragon Kings not only did not perish, but instead ascended to the heavens and were directly resurrected as powerful beings at the God King level!
The Ice Dragon King transformed into human form, still possessing the same icy skin and jade-like bones, and an arrogant and stunningly beautiful appearance, only now his eyes held a new majesty and profundity befitting a god-king.

The Fire Dragon King also materialized into a massive figure, his long crimson hair like burning flames, his face filled with shock and ecstasy.

They felt an unprecedented surge of power within them, and for a moment they were speechless.

Xuanming looked at them, a genuine smile on his face. He had finally fulfilled his promise.

Having done all this, Xuanming did not stop. His gaze turned to the other special soul imprints on his body.

Those were the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and the Evil Emperor. They, too, entrusted their future to him through sacrifice.

"It's time to wake you up."

With a thought, Xuanming unleashed the pure white divine power once more, enveloping the three marks. Gu Yuena, understanding his intention, assisted with the power of the Dragon God.

This time, the process was much smoother. Under the influence of the Dragon God, the supreme master of soul beasts, the soul essences of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and Evil Emperor seemed to receive absolute guidance from their bloodlines, and began a frenzied leap.

The million-year-old spiritual essence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, under the baptism of divine power, quickly condensed into a crystal-clear prototype of a divine essence.

The domineering destructive power of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and the eerie spiritual power of the Evil Emperor, under the harmonization of the Dragon God's power and the reconstruction of the Xuanming Divine Power, also condensed their own divine status.

Their divine qualities, forcibly elevated by the two supreme forces, all reached the level of first-class gods in an unreasonable leap!
Three beams of light flashed, and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm transformed into a golden-haired boy of sixteen or seventeen years old, Deep Sea Demon Whale King became a robust middle-aged man in purple armor, and Evil Emperor became a middle-aged man in black robes with sinister eyes.

They felt the surging divine power within them, their faces filled with disbelief. They never dreamed that their gamble of sacrifice would yield such an astonishing reward.

This is the epitome of instant success.

The Ice Dragon King walked to Xuanming's side, her gaze complex as she looked at his slightly weary expression. She gently reached out, wanting to touch his cheek, but hesitated.

Xuanming noticed her movement, took her hand in his own, placed it on his face, and whispered, "What's wrong?"

The Ice Dragon King felt the warmth of his palm, and that sense of reality dispelled the last trace of doubt in her heart. She shook her head, her eyes slightly red: "It's nothing... I just feel like I'm dreaming."

She would never forget the resolute pain of her soul burning out during the sacrifice, nor would she forget Xuanming's heart-wrenching plea to stay.

She thought it was goodbye forever, but she never expected that there would be a day when they would meet again, or even that she would return to the world as a god-king.

“It’s not a dream.” Xuanming held her hand tightly. “I’ve kept my promise to you.”

This promise, transcending life and death, surpassing rules, has finally become a reality at this moment. (End of Chapter)
