Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

As time ticked by, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's struggles grew weaker and weaker.

Seeing that the time was right, Bibi Dong released the Evil God Space and returned to their original position with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

They were still in the ocean, but the powerful force released by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King earlier had disappeared.

Chen Luo was standing not far away, waiting for Bibi Dong and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to return.

Upon seeing Chen Luo, Bibi Dong immediately said, "He only has one breath left, hurry up and make your move."

Chen Luo nodded and immediately took action, going to the front of the massive body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, clenching his right fist, and throwing a powerful punch.

Under the devastation of Chen Luo's terrifying power, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King finally lost its last chance of survival.

A golden spirit ring, carrying terrifying energy, slowly emerged, symbolizing the fall of a million-year-old spirit beast...

Chapter 286 God Came, God Departed (Part 1)

Upon seeing the golden spirit ring, both Chen Luo and Bibi Dong were stunned, their eyes filled with longing.

This is a million-year soul ring!

After gazing at her for a moment, Bibi Dong slowly said, "Give me some time. I need to absorb the energy of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to recover from the losses inflicted during the battle. Once I'm in peak condition, you can start absorbing the soul rings."

Chen Luo said, "No rush, just absorb the energy. There is still a lot of energy left in the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's body. It would be a waste if you didn't absorb it."

"Ah."

Bibi Dong nodded and then began to act.

Bibi Dong went to the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, her spider spears extending out and disappearing into the corpse, rapidly absorbing the energy within the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's body.

Chen Luo waited silently on the side, while also quickly recovering his own condition.

The battle with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King had consumed a lot of Chen Luo's soul power, and since he was about to absorb this million-year soul ring, he naturally needed to be in peak condition.

As for Bibi Dong, her energy expenditure will only be greater. In this battle, her output is undoubtedly the highest. Chen Luo feels that he is just supporting Bibi Dong.

Seeing Bibi Dong devour the energy from the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Chen Luo couldn't help but recall that in the book, Tang San did the same thing after killing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

Tang San continuously absorbed the energy within the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King using his Devouring Golden Threads. With Tang San's help, the Shrek Seven Devils and others also gained some benefits from the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Even the guardian soul beast of Seagod Island, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King Xiao Bai, also benefited, maximizing the value extracted from the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

This also shows that powerful soul beasts are treasures from head to toe, not just limited to soul rings and soul bones.

Extracting value is a wise choice, better than letting it go to waste.

"It's a pity I don't have the means to absorb the energy from the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Otherwise, I would like to join in. But if I were to forcibly absorb it, I'm afraid it would do more harm than good," Chen Luo thought to himself.

"However, I should be satisfied with the soul ring and soul of a million-year soul beast. I just don't know if the soul of the Divine Dragon can help the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon evolve again after it devours the soul of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Furthermore, after I successfully obtain the million-year soul ring, I will truly enter the level of Title Douluo. Logically speaking, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon will also receive a certain improvement."

"The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon is already an SSS-level martial soul. What level will it reach if it is upgraded further?" Chen Luo was somewhat looking forward to it.

Thinking about the plot of the book, Chen Luo couldn't help but think about Tang San's future development.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was a great opportunity for Tang San, but now that his master has taken it away ahead of time, it will likely have some impact on him.

However, it's not a big problem. If the master becomes stronger, he can also help the disciple acquire resources better.

The ocean is teeming with sea spirit beasts, and there may even be spirit beasts of extremely high age.

After half an hour.

Bibi Dong finished absorbing energy, and her condition had returned to its best. Her aura also seemed to have become stronger.

“I will protect you, you should absorb the spirit ring quickly,” Bibi Dong said.

In fact, Bibi Dong could have continued to absorb energy, but she was worried that it would affect Chen Luo's absorption of the soul ring, so she ended it early.

Even if Bibi Dong were to devour and absorb all the energy from the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, she would not be able to make any breakthrough progress. Reaching level 100 from level 99 would inevitably require the ticket to godhood.

Chen Luo nodded, preparing to absorb the soul ring.

But then Bibi Dong suddenly spoke up again: "Are you really confident?"

Bibi Dong knew the answer in her heart. Since Chen Luo chose the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, he must be confident. But she still couldn't help but ask.

Chen Luo nodded gently: "I'm confident, no need to worry."

Seeing Chen Luo's resolute expression, Bibi Dong stopped saying anything more.

Chen Luo took one last look at the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's spirit ring, and then began to act.

Absorbing a million-year-level spirit ring is done in the same way as absorbing a hundred-year-level spirit ring; it only requires guiding it with one's mind, without any fancy tricks.

Next comes the test of the absorber's physical and spiritual strength.

The energy possessed by a million-year soul ring is undoubtedly enormous, placing extremely high demands on the body. Any soul beast above the ten-thousand-year level will experience a soul impact, and the power of a million-year soul beast's soul impact is even more self-evident; humans would almost be unable to withstand it.

It is impossible to absorb a million-year soul ring with a human body and soul unless one uses a cheat code or a million-year soul beast sacrifices itself.

In the book's plot, Tang San, with the help of various "cheat codes," still faced near-death experiences when absorbing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's spirit ring, which is enough to show the terrifying power of a million-year spirit ring.

However, a million-year spirit ring was as easy as a bag for Chen Luo; he had absolute confidence in absorbing it.

Where does self-confidence come from?

Needless to say, it's obviously cheating!

With the help of various opportunities, such as the Dragon Soul, Chen Luo's body had long since grown to an extremely abnormal level.

Even if Chen Luo's physical body is still not strong enough, he still has a soul bone that can help him share the pressure.

Chen Luo possesses four soul bones, the lowest being at the 100,000-year level and the highest at the 3 million-year level—this is no joke.

In addition, there are external soul bones, which have evolved as Chen Luo's strength has increased, and have also acquired a certain level of power.

As for the soul impact of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King?

Chen Luo had even less to worry about. With the Divine Dragon Soul, he could directly devour the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul. Since even the soul was devoured, there was no question of a soul impact.

Chen Luo only needs to prepare to bear the massive fragments of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's memories. After the Divine Dragon Soul devours the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul, it will feed back the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's memories to Chen Luo. Accepting and processing those memories is the biggest problem Chen Luo needs to face.

After absorbing the spirit ring began, Chen Luo quickly felt intense pain.

Even if his body is strong enough, he will still experience a lot of pain, but he is relatively more confident in his ability to cope.

With strong willpower, those pains are nothing.

He didn't know how much time had passed when Chen Luo's consciousness suddenly began to blur. After a moment, it became clear again, and at that moment, Chen Luo found himself on the surface of the sea, with an incredibly terrifying pressure coming from the sky.

Chen Luo subconsciously looked up at the sky, and a giant figure came into his sight—Poseidon, the god of the sea!

These are the memories of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!

What followed was a great battle between the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and the Sea God Poseidon. In the end, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King lost an eye and fled in a sorry state, and the Sea God Poseidon did not continue to pursue him...

Chapter 287 God Came, God Departed (Part 2)

The battle between the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and Poseidon, the sea god, was extremely intense and a visual feast. Unfortunately, the memory of the battle didn't last long, and soon the Deep Sea Demon Whale King entered its long growth phase.

The growth stages of the Deep Sea Whale King are very monotonous, consisting of the most common pattern of big fish eating small fish.

By devouring weaker sea spirit beasts to grow faster, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's true age is definitely not a million years, at most two or three hundred thousand years. The reason it can possess the strength of a million-year-old is mainly due to devouring other sea spirit beasts, and its own growth talent is not bad either.

Big fish eat little fish. Even the Deep Sea Demon Whale King had its moments as a little fish. After experiencing countless life-and-death crises, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was able to grow into a million-year-old soul beast. No one's growth is easy.

Countless fragments of memories flashed through Chen Luo's mind. Many of the scenes were repetitive, making Chen Luo feel bored and tedious. However, he had no choice. These memories were as if they were forcibly poured into his mind. Only after all the memories were poured in could he choose to forget or retain them.

The process of implanting memories is extremely painful. Chen Luo is not enjoying the ease of watching a movie. His body is under immense pressure, his willpower is facing a huge challenge, and he may collapse at any time.

Fortunately, Chen Luo eventually pulled through. As the image of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King suffering from lightning tribulation flashed by, all the pain suddenly disappeared, followed by an indescribable joy. Powerful energy filled every cell in his body, allowing Chen Luo to successfully step into a completely new level.

This powerful feeling even gave Chen Luo the confidence that he could beat the Deep Sea Demon Whale King in a one-on-one fight.

Before absorbing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul ring, Chen Luo was able to defeat the Deep Sea Demon Whale King mainly with the help of Bibi Dong. Although he could have defeated it on his own, he would have paid a heavy price.

Now that he has absorbed the soul ring, if he were to face an existence of the same level as the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, he could easily beat him up. That's how terrifying his combat power has increased!

After absorbing the spirit ring, Chen Luo then entered a state of cultivation to consolidate his strength.

Compared to absorbing soul rings, the cultivation process is undoubtedly much easier and can even be considered a kind of enjoyment.

He didn't know how long he had been cultivating, but when Chen Luo slowly opened his eyes, he was already in complete darkness.

The deep sea is inherently dark, with no distinction between day and night, and filled with immense pressure, but this does not affect the survival of someone with Chen Luo's strength.

With the activation of the Dragon Eye, Bibi Dong was not far ahead.

Even without activating the Dragon Eye, Chen Luo's powerful mental energy allows him to clearly visualize the surrounding environment in his mind, covering an extremely wide area.

Bibi Dong sensed that Chen Luo had finished his cultivation and immediately came over: "Congratulations! You've officially entered the Title Douluo level!"

Chen Luo smiled slightly: "Thank you for your hard work!"

"Let's go up."

After saying that, Chen Luo took Bibi Dong's small hand, and the two headed towards the sea at an extremely fast speed.

When Chen Luo and Bibi Dong burst out of the sea, they happened to be there at sunrise.

The sunrise at sea was still beautiful, but Chen Luo and Bibi Dong only had eyes for each other.

"What are your plans after this?" Bibi Dong asked.

Chen Luo said, "I don't know yet. Before becoming a Title Douluo, my goal was to become a Title Douluo. Now that I've become a Title Douluo, I don't have a goal for the time being."

Bibi Dong said, "With your strength, you can actually start looking for miracles. If you're lucky, you should be able to inherit a divine position."

As she spoke, Bibi Dong's gaze fell on Chen Luo's spirit rings, finally settling on the golden one.

"What exactly is the situation regarding the succession to the divine throne?" Chen Luo asked.

Bibi Dong said, "You have undergone the divine test, so you should know something about it."

Chen Luo nodded: "Yes, but I don't know much about it."

Bibi Dong did not hide anything from her, and without much hesitation, she directly brought up the situation of the succession to the divine position.

"God's succession means that God has chosen you to inherit his position."

"The ultimate limit for us human soul masters is level 99 Limit Douluo. Even if we can improve after reaching Limit Douluo, we can never break through level 100. Only by inheriting a godhood can we break through the human limit and enter a completely new level."

"To inherit a god's position, one must obtain the god's approval."

"There are some miracles in our world that we can seek out and explore, and perhaps we can gain the opportunity to inherit a divine position."
