Douluo Dragon King: The Blue Silver Divine Tree, The Holy Dragon Devours the Heavens

Xu Mengqing smiled and agreed, reaching out to ruffle Na'er's fluffy hair, taking Na'er's small hand in hers. After washing up, the two returned to their room.

Meng Ling'er initially planned to set aside a room as Na'er's room.

Ke Na'er was unwilling to separate from Xu Mengqing, so Meng Ling'er had no choice but to maintain the double room arrangement. Besides, in her opinion, there was no problem with two six-year-old children.

Xu Mengqing and Na'er returned to their room. Na'er, who was lying on the bed, soon began to snore softly and evenly, clearly exhausted. Moonlight streamed in through the window, falling on Na'er's serene face. Her long eyelashes cast soft shadows, her purple eyes were closed, and her brows were slightly relaxed, as if she had completely let down her guard.

Xu Mengqing did not continue meditating as usual, but instead lay down on the soft bed and soon fell asleep.

……

The following afternoon, after saying goodbye to Tang Wulin, Xu Mengqing returned home.

The evening breeze carried the unique warmth of spring, causing the branches of the trees at the courtyard gate to sway gently. Before even stepping into the house, he could smell the aroma of food wafting from the kitchen. Meng Ling'er was preparing dinner. The rich aroma of meat mixed with the fragrance of rice instantly dispelled the fatigue he had been working outside.

"Brother, you're back!"

A soft, sweet child's voice rang out first. Na'er had been waiting in the yard. When she saw him, she immediately ran over with her short legs, carrying a large watering can in her hands. Her purple eyes were bright and full of joy.

She threw herself into Xu Mengqing's arms, nuzzling her head against his chest, and said in a sweet, innocent voice, "I watered the Blue Silver Grass today, and they're growing so fast!"

He smiled and ruffled Na'er's hair, took the watering can from her hand, and said gently, "Our Na'er is really capable."

Holding Na'er's little hand, I walked into the yard and immediately saw the neat Tai Chi Bagua Blue Silver Grass layout in the backyard. Under the setting sun, the pale green grass leaves shimmered with a soft light. The Blue Silver Grass arranged in eight directions was well-organized, and the round bluestone slab in the center was gilded with a warm yellow by the afterglow. From a distance, it seemed to exude a mysterious aura. Moreover, it was more vibrant than when it was planted yesterday, and even the surrounding air carried a faint fragrance of grass and trees. Its vitality was much stronger than elsewhere.

After that, Xu Mengqing and Na'er started playing and frolicking among the blue silver grass.

Immediately, the sound of two people laughing could be heard from the courtyard.

After playing around for a while, Na'er went to help Meng Ling'er prepare dinner for the evening.

Xu Mengqing began experimenting with her second martial soul—the Holy Light Lizard.

Xu Mengqing's mind stirred slightly, and her soul power surged within her body.

In an instant, an aura of sacred light spread outwards from him.

A phantom, entirely platinum in color and resembling a snake or lizard, appeared behind Xu Mengqing.

The moment the Holy Light Lizard appeared, it transformed into a stream of light and flowed into Xu Mengqing's body.

An unprecedented sense of power instantly swept through her entire body, filling every limb with surging energy. Xu Mengqing's originally neat short golden hair was now dyed with a dazzling platinum gold, making the hair even smoother and shinier. Her originally clear golden pupils had now transformed into sharp platinum vertical pupils, with a faint holy light shining through them. Her arms were covered with a layer of fine, translucent platinum scales, which felt slightly cool to the touch and contained extremely strong defensive power.

Although her physical form hadn't changed much, Xu Mengqing could clearly sense that her strength, speed, and physique had all increased exponentially.

"Is this the power of the Holy Light Lizard Martial Soul...?" Xu Mengqing murmured to herself.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Mengqing mobilized the devouring power of the Holy Light Lizard. With a slight twitch of her fingertips, she suddenly noticed a wisp of blackish-gray air slowly swirling and hovering in the palm of her right hand. This air seemed capable of devouring everything, and it also contained a sharp aura of destruction, creating an extreme contrast with the holy light surrounding her.

"This is the hidden power of devouring and destruction of the Holy Light Lizard." Xu Mengqing's eyes narrowed. He knew very well that if he exposed it, he would likely be branded as an evil soul master and might even be hunted down by the entire continent.

He didn't rush to activate it, but carefully gathered the wisp of dark gray energy in his palm, feeling its characteristics of devouring life and obliterating all things. Then he slowly raised his palm and aimed it at a blue silver grass in the corner of the courtyard.

He controlled the wisp of dark gray airflow, and with a gentle push from his palm, the airflow slowly disappeared onto the blue silver grass.

The next second, the Blue Silver Grass withered and died at a speed visible to the naked eye. The woody structure on the surface decayed rapidly, and the vitality and essence inside were instantly devoured. In the blink of an eye, the original Blue Silver Grass, which was full of vitality, turned into a pile of grass fragments that would crumble at the slightest touch and scattered into powder with a gust of wind.

Xu Mengqing's pupils contracted slightly. This power of devouring and destruction was far more powerful than he had expected. If it were fully activated, its power would be unimaginable.

However, Xu Mengqing did not end the experiment, but went to another Blue Silver Grass.

However, this time he did not condense the power of devouring and the power of destruction. Instead, he reached out and placed his hand directly on the Blue Silver Grass, and immediately activated the power of devouring within his body.

Just as the power of devouring was about to erupt, the Blue Silver Grass visibly withered and died, while a pure life force slowly flowed into Xu Mengqing's body.

Xu Mengqing's body was like parched land receiving sweet rain. Part of it was quickly absorbed and refined by her body, while the other part surged into the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul within Xu Mengqing's body.

Xu Mengqing could clearly feel that the speed of his soul power circulation had increased significantly, and at the same time, the impurities in his body were expelled with his sweat, making him feel refreshed.

Sure enough, the act of devouring can be addictive.

No wonder so many people take shortcuts.

Fortunately, his Holy Light Lizard Martial Soul possesses the attributes of light and holiness, so the devouring has little effect on him.

Xu Mengqing slowly withdrew the power from her palm, feeling the pure life energy still surging within her body, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

There was amazement at the Holy Light Lizard's formidable abilities, apprehension about its devouring power, and a barely perceptible sense of unease.

He knew all too well that this power, which seemed to be able to rapidly enhance his strength, was like a double-edged sword, and that the slightest carelessness could lead to utter ruin.

Evil spirit masters, those who are consumed by desire and enslaved by power, ultimately meet a disgraceful end, deserving of everyone's wrath. He clenched his fists, his platinum vertical pupils gradually fading back to their original clear gold, the fine scales on his arms slowly disappearing into his skin, and the aura of holy light receding, the oppressive feeling around him vanishing without a trace.

However, the life force that had been devoured within his body continued to circulate slowly, nourishing his meridians and martial soul. His Blue Silver Grass martial soul swayed gently in his dantian, as if it had drunk its fill of nutrients, becoming even stronger than before. His soul power also became more stable, showing faint signs of a breakthrough.

Xu Mengqing, however, wants to become the master of power.
