Douluo Dalu 3: The Legend of the Dragon King

The Spirit Sovereign didn't hesitate any longer as he retreated into the distance, and blue light began to glow from his eyes.

Gu Yuena had constantly been keeping tabs on him while also watching the battle between Tang Wulin and Demon Sovereign, preparing to step in at any time, and she hurriedly focused her attention back on the Spirit Sovereign.

The Spirit Sovereign's body quickly swelled in size, almost instantly transforming into an Abyssal Spirit Dragon that was around 15 meters in length.

This was naturally far smaller than the other Abyssal Spirit Dragon. In fact, the three Spirit Dragon Kings were all over 100 meters in length, but upon closer inspection, one would discover that the Spirit Sovereign's Abyssal Spirit Dragon form was of a different color compared to his brethren.

His entire body had a turquoise hue, and following his transformation, all of the abyssal energy permeating through the air converged toward him in a frenzy.

What was even more concerning for Gu Yuena was that the Spirit Sovereign's power wasn't being enhanced by much, but his spiritual power was spiking at an alarming rate.

Even at the Divine Origin realm, there were naturally also tiers of spiritual power.

In the Divine Realm, there were four major spiritual power realms, just like the number of godly tiers. Godly officials corresponded with Divine Origin realm spiritual, and above godly officials were third-rank gods.

One of the prerequisites that a third-rank god had to satisfy was to reach the third Divine Origin realm in spiritual power. After that came second-rank gods, first-rank gods, and godkings.

They naturally corresponded to the second Divine Origin realm, the first Divine Origin realm, and the Godking realm, respectively.

Upon reaching the Godking realm, one could easily control a plane and could even spread their spiritual power over many planets at once.

At this moment, the Spirit Sovereign's spiritual power was rising toward the third Divine Origin realm.

This appeared to only be a slight improvement, but one had to realize that the total amount of spiritual power required to reach from zero to the Divine Origin realm could've even reached 10% of the amount of spiritual power required to progress from the Divine Origin realm to the third Divine Origin realm!

Never did Gu Yuena think that the Spirit Sovereign would still have the ability to enhance his spiritual power further even though he still wasn't even a true god.

Furthermore, she was struck by a rather strange feeling. Ever since the commencement of the abyssal plane invasion, the Spirit Sovereign was the only abyssal creature who struck her as a creature that was quite beautiful in appearance.

A faint green light was glowing out of its entire body, and every single one of its scales looked as if it had been carved out of the finest jade. Its eyes were also as clear as a pair of gems, and even the purplish-black aura of Demon Sovereign was unable to obscure its radiance; it was as if this boost in spiritual power had allowed it to ascend to a whole new level, and even Demon Sovereign couldn't help but have her gaze drawn toward it.

Even though both her soul power and spiritual power had reached the godly level, she didn't know what changes would take place once someone reached an even higher level of spiritual power. Furthermore, she had her own objective, and to complete that objective, she had to use the abyssal creatures. If the abyssal creatures, namely the Spirit Sovereign, were to become too powerful to control, then that would spell trouble for her as well!

Thus, the Spirit Sovereign was thrust firmly under the limelight.

Immediately thereafter, all of the concealed Abyssal Spirit Dragons suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and they pressed their bodies against the ground while raising their heads to the heavens, as if they were paying reverence to the Spirit Sovereign.

What was even more concerning was that all of these Abyssal Spirit Dragons were also beginning to transform.

A layer of turquoise light surfaced over their scales, and it seemed that the transformation that the Spirit Sovereign had undergone was able to trigger a transformation among all of his brethren.

The Abyssal Spirit Dragons' auras began to elevate, and in particular, the eyes of the three Shrek's Six Monsters had all turned turquoise.

They had been repressed by Shrek's Six Monsters, but following this transformation, they began to give off incredibly powerful auras.

Invulnerability Mist was released once again, but not to enhance the surrounding abyssal creatures this time. Instead, the mist caused the abyssal creatures to explode, forming a massive reserve of abyssal creatures that was devoured by the Spirit Dragon Kings, causing their bodies to swell drastically in size. Furthermore, all attacks that struck them would simply be repelled, and even Xu Xiaoyan's soul skill was cut off by a spiritual attack unleashed by the Spirit Dragon Kings in the form of a roar.

Under the leadership of the Abyssal Spirit Dragons, all of the abyssal creatures quickly launched a counterattack against the human army.

This was the true power of the second most powerful being of the abyssal plane!

The Spirit Sovereign's cold gaze had been fixed on Gu Yuena's face this entire time, and its aura was constantly fluctuating, striking one with a sense of unpredictability.

In the next instant, a giant light pattern appeared above its head, and it was still speaking in a human tongue as it declared, "Planar Seal!"

All of a sudden, a massive area around Gu Yuena and the Spirit Sovereign was plunged into darkness, and from the perspectives of everyone else, a giant ball of black light had suddenly appeared in mid-air. Within the area encompassed by the ball of light, all elements had disappeared, and Gu Yuena and the Spirit Sovereign were also concealed within the ball of light.

Tang Wulin was greatly alarmed to see this, yet just as he was about to rush over to assist Gu Yuena, a voice rang out beside his ears, stopping him cold in his tracks.

The voice belonged to Gu Yuena, and it was a very short message, but it was enough to assuage all of his concern.

"Trust me!"

Having known one another for such a long time, both Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena had developed immense trust in each other.

Tang Wulin had wavered in the past, but Gu Yuena had always won back his trust with her actions, and she had never disappointed him.

Thus, immediately upon hearing this, he knew that she was definitely safe. Otherwise, if the two of them were to join forces, they would actually be even more powerful.

A full-scale battle commenced once again between the abyssal army and the human army, and as the interim commander-in-chief, Zhuang Huanyuan immediately ordered all of the heavy ion laser cannons of the Blood God Legion to be directed toward the Abyssal Spirit Dragons down below in order to suppress them.

After being enveloped in the green light, the Abyssal Spirit Dragons had indeed become significantly more powerful, but aside from the Abyssal Spirit Dragon Kings, which had devoured other abyssal creatures to enhance themselves, the other Abyssal Spirit Dragons were still fighting in much the same style as they had before.

Furthermore, their Invulnerability Mist and Light of Debilitation had become significantly more powerful, and their spiritual power had also taken a massive leap, but there was one downside, which was that they were no longer able to conceal themselves.

Even when they tried to conceal themselves, the green light glowing from their bodies would still be visible, so their location could be easily tracked.

The heavy ion laser cannons immediately abandoned the other enemies and began to specifically target Abyssal Spirit Dragons, forcing them to use other abyssal creatures as meat shields or take evasive measures.

At the same time, the infrasonic aircrafts had completely disabled the Hornet Sovereign's Abyssal Bomber Hornets.

The Invulnerability Mist was mainly affecting the battlefield on the ground, and its effects on the aerial battlefield were very limited as the mist would quickly disperse upon rising up into the air.

Thus, another impasse ensued. 

Meanwhile, in the black ball of light on the main battlefield, Gu Yuena and the Spirit Sovereign were in a world of their own, completely cut off from the outside world.
