Douluo: Starting from the engagement with Zhu Zhuqing.

From a long distance away, the scarlet-gold soul ring suddenly entered the sight of Zhu Zhuqing and others.

"This is······"

Zhu Zhuqing and others were in a state of long shock.

This scarlet-gold soul ring was different from all the soul rings they had seen. Although it was dead, the aura of the abyss and hell was as if it was staring at a real god. They had also seen soul rings of 100,000 years, but even soul rings of 100,000 years or even hundreds of thousands of years were far inferior to the one in front of them.

"This is the soul ring of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, which means that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is dead. Let's go find Dai Yao!"

Dugu Yan reacted instantly and said in surprise.

Everyone woke up in shock, their hearts finally relaxed, but their worries grew even stronger. They had not expected this deep sea demon whale king to be so powerful. Although Dai Yao had defeated this soul beast, the situation was still unclear, and they had to rush over as soon as possible.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly, looking at the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, which looked like an island under the red-gold soul ring, with a serious look in her eyes.

Immediately, it turned into a phantom and flew forward at a high speed.

Dugu Yan and others followed closely.

After a moment, Zhu Zhuqing noticed two figures on the back of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. It was Bai Chenxiang supporting Dai Yao. She was delighted at once, but then felt distressed. With a flash of thought, she increased her speed, and with two clicks, she landed on the back of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

"Brother Yao, how are you?"

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing coming, Bai Chenxiang handed Dai Yao out. Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing quickly took it, looked at Dai Yao's tired face, and asked softly.

Dai Yao leaned all his weight on Zhu Zhuqing. Although he was extremely tired, he still raised his eyebrows and smiled, speaking in a relaxed tone:

"Don't worry, this little fish can't stump your husband."

The last move, 'Twilight of the Sea God', drained all his soul power in an instant. Even with his god-level body, it was a huge burden.

A touch of pink blush stained Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face. She didn't say much, but just gave Dai Yao a slightly shy look.

At this moment, a brilliant ray of light descended from the sky and landed on Dai Yao. Dai Yao could feel the fatigue in his body melting away like ice and snow.

Following the aura, Duguyan, Ning Rongrong, Feng Wutong and others all fell down. Ning Rongrong was holding the Ten Treasures Glazed Pagoda and looking at him with a smile. Dai Yao also nodded slightly and smiled. The relationship between the two did not need any words.

Duguyan walked to Dai Yao expressionlessly and examined him carefully before snorting with concern and complaint.
"Humph, if it weren't for Rongrong, you would have to lie on the ground for half a day. You are just a small fish, but you are really showing off!"

Dai Yao grinned but said nothing.

He naturally took Dugu Yan's hand, and Dugu Yan also naturally put her hand in Dai Yao's hand and wiped the wounds on his body.

"Brother Yao, you are in a very bad state now. It will be difficult for you to absorb this spirit ring. You should take a good breath and recover your spirit first."

Ning Rongrong reminded him while trying her best to activate the Ten Treasures Glazed Pagoda to restore Dai Yao's strength.

Dai Yao's body has reached the realm of god, and Ning Rongrong's cultivation has only reached the Soul Douluo. Although the quality of her martial soul is extremely high, it is still a bit difficult for her to treat Dai Yao.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan both nodded. Feng Wutong and Bai Chenxiang also looked at Dai Yao. It was obvious that they all agreed with Ning Rongrong's opinion.

Dai Yao did not refuse and sat down cross-legged immediately.

Immediately, the four or five remaining white tiger eight wings on his back inserted into the body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and the vast soul power poured into his body like a flood breaking through a dam.

But these soul powers are the icing on the cake for Dai Yao. The soul power stored in the Chaos Green Lotus, which is comparable to the peerless Douluo, has not been used yet! It's just because he knows that this battle will definitely be watched by the gods in the sky, so he didn't use it, so as not to be discovered by those gods.

When Dai Yao's soul power recovered, he transferred the excess soul power to Zhu Zhuqing and others through the Eight Wings of the White Tiger, raising their soul power levels to the peak below Titled Douluo.

Even Bai Chenxiang has reached the peak of Soul Saint.

Despite this, the soul power of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is still like the sea, without any decrease.

However, these soul powers were of no extra use to Dai Yao, so after adjusting his breath for a while, he began to formally absorb the million-year soul ring!

After letting Xiaobai take Zhu Zhuqing and the others away, Dai Yao's mind moved and he instantly switched to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Martial Spirit.

The dark black color gradually infected the golden hair draped over her shoulders; when the tightly closed eyes opened again, the pupils turned black; the black spot between the eyebrows was like an abyss that swallowed everything, making people dare not look directly at it.

“I haven’t been out for a long time!”

The man smiled evilly, glanced in the direction of Zhu Zhuqing and the others, and then stopped his gaze on the scarlet-gold soul ring.

"Deep Sea Demon Whale King, tsk tsk, after a million years of cultivation, you still ended up with the same fate as in the original novel. However, I will not allow your soul to remain in the spirit ring and spirit bone to disrupt the inheritance."

As the soul power surged, the shadow of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger appeared behind Dai Yao. Looking at the red-gold soul ring in the sky, the tiger's pupils were full of desire and greed.

Dai Yao sat down cross-legged, and with a thought, the scarlet-gold soul ring slowly shrank and floated above his head.

As the absorption officially began, the red-gold soul ring began to flicker, and the surging energy continued to erupt with the flickering of the soul ring. Every eruption would cause a tsunami hundreds of meters high.

However, after this violent energy entered Dai Yao's body, it was like a drop in the ocean, unable to cause any waves.

In the spiritual world, the phantom of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King formed by the million-year soul ring was firmly pinned down by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and ruthlessly ravaged. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King wanted to struggle, but just when the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was unable to suppress it, the black spot between its eyebrows lit up slightly, and the extreme evil suppressed the Deep Sea Demon Whale King firmly, making him unable to move.

The power of the God of Evil is enough to suppress this million-year-old soul beast.

Soon, the absorption of the soul ring came to an end, and the frequency of fluctuations became lower and lower. As the last unprecedented energy burst was suppressed, the scarlet-gold soul ring finally fell silent.

Red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red.

The eight soul rings of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Martial Spirit slowly rose from the soles of his feet, and the blood-red light almost illuminated the sea surface beneath his feet.

Dai Yao slowly raised his right hand, and a mighty torrent of soul power surged towards the last soul ring in his body. In an instant, it seemed as if a strong wind was generated, his clothes moved without wind, and the calm sea surface was also stirred up by waves.

A scarlet-gold soul ring slowly emerged.

The scarlet-gold light was dazzling and deep. In an instant, it suppressed the eight noble hundred thousand year spirit rings and became the only focus between heaven and earth.

"Tsk, a million-year spirit ring, it's not bad, but I have already reached the level of peerless Douluo, so the improvement to me is minimal. Forget it, I'd better absorb the torso bone first."

Dai Yao raised his eyebrows and glanced at the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, with a hint of disdain in his frivolous tone.

Immediately afterwards, the body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King began to tremble violently, and with a loud bang, the body exploded, and a piece of purple bone flew into the air.

It is the torso bone of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

A hundred thousand year old soul beast will definitely produce soul bones, and these are the soul bones that soul masters lack. At present, the only thing Dai Yao lacks is the torso bone.

For soul masters, the most precious soul bone is undoubtedly the torso bone, followed by the skull.

The effect of a million-year-old trunk bone on a soul master is self-evident. Although Dai Yao's body has reached the god level, a million-year-old trunk bone can still bring a significant increase to his body.

A million-year-old torso bone, plus the skull of a million-year-old Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, four hundred-thousand-year-old soul bones, as well as the Eight-Winged White Tiger, and three external soul bones of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear in his left and right hands. It can be said that Dai Yao's soul bone configuration is unprecedented.

The purple soul bone fell rapidly, and with a snap, it clasped onto Dai Yao's spine. A strong sense of power instantly surged out, and golden light spread throughout his body.

But Dai Yao smiled strangely:
"Deep Sea Demon Whale King, since you want to hide, then hide for the rest of your life!"

The black spot between his eyebrows slowly lit up, and a puff of black smoke poured out, slowly enveloping the soul bone behind him. The ultimate evil, the ultimate thunder, raged through the torso bone of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Not long after, a scream seemed to be heard in his ears, and rain slowly fell from the sky.

It was as if it was grieving the true death of this million-year-old soul beast.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, like a downpour. Standing in the heavy rain, looking up at the sky, Dai Yao's face was more serious than ever before, and he said slowly:
"Hey, I know you're staring at me. Have you really decided? The Sea God is just a first-level god, which is a waste of our talents. The God of Evil is one of the two great gods in the God Realm, and his strength is also impressive. Why not inherit the God of Evil?"

After a long time without hearing a response, Dai Yao raised his eyebrows and smiled:

"If you don't agree, we can also coexist like Tang San, the two gods."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light bloomed from Dai Yao's pupils, and then occupied his entire eyes. Then the golden range continued to spread, and his black hair returned to golden color.

Dai Yao maintained the same posture, looking up at the sky, his eyes seemed to penetrate the thick clouds and see the distant God Realm. After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"You are me, you know what I am thinking."

"If there was no Chaos Azure Lotus, I would still be the slave who worked overtime until late at night, and I would not be the Dai Yao who is now so powerful on the continent. In Douluo Continent, my appearance changed the fate of many people. Tang San disappeared, Tiandou was destroyed, and the Wuhun Empire became the final winner." "The Haotian Sect was destroyed; the Azure Lotus Sect emerged; Bibi Dong successfully inherited the throne and overlooked the world."

"It can be said that I have taken away Tang San's luck. The protagonist of the story has become me."

"But I will not follow the same path as Tang San, who controlled the God Realm for his own selfishness and turned it into the private land of the Tang family. He even deliberately lured the Abyss Plane in the name of doing it for the sake of the mainland, which ultimately led to the sacrifice of billions of people, just for his so-called ten thousand year plan."

"I'm not Tang San."

"Of course, I'm not a saint. I can't sacrifice myself and give everything for the mainland. All I want is to be with Zhuqing and the others forever. Other than that, I'm willing to contribute to the development of the mainland. But if what I want to do threatens my loved ones, I will stop."

"Speaking of which, I am really a sophisticated egoist."

Dai Yao laughed at himself.

"However, I have gained so much since I came to Douluo Continent, and I have to do something for Douluo Continent."

"In the near future, Douluo Continent will face the crisis of energy depletion. This is why Tang San in the original novel wants to carry out the Ten Thousand Year Plan. In the more distant future, there will be space-time turbulence, colliding with the different worlds created by the author."

"Each of these problems is very difficult, but as long as Douluo Continent is developed, these problems will be easily solved."

"To develop Douluo Continent, we face two key problems. One is the relationship between humans and soul beasts, and the other is the problem of limited energy."

"If human soul masters want to level up, they must hunt soul beasts and obtain soul rings. This is the rule set by the God Realm. And changing this rule is both easy and difficult."

“It’s easy because if you can condense your own spirit rings when you reach a higher realm, then this won’t be a problem. The concept of artificial spirit rings also appeared in the subsequent parts of the original novel, which means that it is possible to condense your own spirit rings. Of course, Huo Yuhao’s soul method is also feasible, but it has not touched the root of the problem.”

"But the difficulty is that changing the rules means angering the God Realm and having to face all the gods directly."

"Tsk, my scalp tingles just thinking about it."

"However, compared to the second question, this one is relatively simple. The energy of Douluo Continent is limited. Although there are two cancers like Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, which have delayed the technological progress of Douluo Continent by 10,000 years, the energy of the continent will also be in crisis in 20,000 years."

"If the mainland is allowed to develop normally, with the speed of technological progress, the consumption rate will only be faster, and the energy may be used up in less than 10,000 years."

"And the energy on the continent is non-renewable. When the energy is exhausted, if there is no new energy to sustain life, or if there is no land in the universe, then the civilization of Douluo Continent will come to the end of destruction. It can be said that the second problem is unsolvable."

"However, the Chaos Azure Lotus gave me a glimmer of hope to solve these two problems. As long as we make good use of it, Douluo Continent will embark on a completely different path."

Dai Yao said calmly, and his calm tone seemed to have the power to change the continent.

After a long silence, a frivolous voice sounded in my heart, somewhat helplessly:

"Well, it's up to you. You are the master personality. As expected, souls from another world are a little different. Although I was born with the label of evil and compete with you for the dominance of the body, if you can do this, I don't mind disappearing from now on."

The evil personality's voice gradually became more serious.

He was born from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, and is cunning and unscrupulous by nature, but he was moved by Dai Yao's little wish.

In a sense, he is a native creature of Douluo Continent. Perhaps it is precisely because of Dai Yao's willingness to consider Douluo Continent that he is willing to sacrifice himself to let Dai Yao fulfill his wish.

Dai Yao was slightly stunned for a moment, then smiled softly:
"talk later."

After a while, the aura between heaven and earth gradually stabilized. Zhu Zhuqing and others knew that the soul rings and soul bones had been absorbed, so they rode Xiaobai and rushed over.

"Brother Yao, how do you feel now?"

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Dai Yao, and seeing his relaxed expression, she felt relieved and asked with a smile.

Dai Yao raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile:
“Better than ever.”

After absorbing the million-year spirit ring and the million-year spirit bone, although he did not obtain the tenth spirit ring, he could still vaguely feel his progress. If he faced the Deep Sea Demon Whale King again, he would probably not need to use the "Twilight of the Sea God" to kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

"Brother Yao, let's go to Sea God Island right away. I can't wait to see you become a god!"

Ning Rongrong said excitedly, her starry eyes full of longing.

Dai Yao touched Ning Rongrong's head and said with a smile:

"No hurry. This Deep Sea Demon Whale King is only one step away from completing his transformation into a dragon. Although it can't be said to be full of treasures, they are definitely rare items in the world. Let's deal with the rest of it first."

The most precious thing of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King besides his soul ring and soul bone is the whale pearl. In the original novel, the Heart of the Sea God on the Sea God's Trident was destroyed and it was restored using the whale pearl, so its preciousness is self-evident.

He took out the trident of Poseidon and opened the huge skull of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Along with a strong fragrance, a golden whale brain and the precious whale pearl were revealed.

"This is······!"

Ning Rongrong exclaimed, and Zhu Zhuqing and the others all fixed their eyes on the whale brain and the whale pearl. Xiaobai, who was swimming around, stared at the whale pearl intently, but did not dare to speak out due to Dai Yao's majesty.

Dai Yao took off the whale pearl and introduced:

"This is the whale brain of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. It can be said that it is the essence of a million years of its existence. You can take some and consume it after you obtain the ninth soul ring. It will be of great benefit to both the body and the mind. As for this whale pearl, it is even more precious. I will keep it for now. It may be useful when you become gods."

Upon hearing this, everyone took action.

Scenic brain is extremely precious, but the quantity is pitifully small. After a while, most of it is divided up, and only a little is left. Although each person can only take a small amount, they can save it for relatives and friends.

Looking at the remaining whale brain, Dai Yao glanced at Xiaobai who was waiting anxiously on the sea surface and said:

"Thank you for the hard work. I'll give you the remaining whale brain."

Xiao Bai seemed to be struck by a huge surprise. She thought that with her relationship with Dai Yao, it was impossible for Dai Yao to give her such a precious thing. She immediately said excitedly:

"Thank you, sir."

Dai Yao nodded, stared at the huge body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and said:

"However, you must take good care of the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. If you don't mind, let your people eat it. Don't waste it."

In the original novel, after learning of the death of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, the Demon Queen, the wife of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, absorbed the foundation left by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and only then did she quickly reach level 100 in 20,000 years.

Dai Yao can't let this happen again.

Xiao Bai was even more excited. Although the meat of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was old, the energy it contained was extremely amazing. If the tribesmen took it, their strength would increase greatly. Moreover, she was more confident that she could break through the 100,000-year barrier and reach a higher level.

After everyone was ready, Xiaobai drove them to Poseidon Island, and Xiaobai dragged the corpse of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King behind with his soul power.

After an unknown amount of time, a black spot appeared on the sea level. After a moment, the black spot grew rapidly and turned into a huge island.

"Sir, we have arrived at Poseidon Island."

Xiaobai reminded respectfully.

Dai Yao slowly opened his eyes and looked at the Sea God Island which he had not seen for several years, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Zhu Zhuqing and others were even more filled with emotion.

When they came here to practice, they were still Soul King and Soul Emperor levels because they didn't want to get involved in the struggle on the continent. Now when they return, except for Bai Chenxiang, everyone has reached the bottleneck of level 89, and Dai Yao has even reached the peak of level 99!
Memories of past training flooded into their minds, the sleepless nights, the exhausting training, the never-ending rest, and the breakthroughs that came after all the hard work, every scene was so familiar. And there was Dai Yao who had always been by their side.

"Let's go."

Dai Yao slowly stood up and was about to leave when Xiao Bai suddenly stopped him and said:

"grown ups!"

Dai Yao turned around and the girls also looked over, somewhat surprised.

"My Lord, you must complete the test and become a true sea god. The sea has been waiting for you for a long time!"

Xiaobai met Dai Yao's gaze and was a little scared, but the emotions in his heart overwhelmed the fear, and he said solemnly.

Dai Yao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"I will." (End of this chapter)
