Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 108: Preparation

"So what should we bring with us?" Questioned Zeref towards Tang Wulin as he was sitting on one of the decent beds. Ever since the Pavilion got destroyed, he had to relocate to the Inn and sleep here for the time being.

"The Lacrima." Said Tang Wulin causing Zeref to set his hand on his chin and nod in agreement.

"I can see the benefit of having them. With the Lacrima you could easily use it as a distraction, utility, and support."Said Zeref as he sighed at the usefulness of the Lacrima.

"What else?"

"That is all I really need to bring for now. Mu Ye said he and the elders would be packing the necessities that we need to survive for a while." Said Tang Wulin.

"Right now, we need to focus on what we can do in the days we have left."

They didn't have an exact date on when they were going as they still needed to make a plan and contingency for that plan. Still, he should be using this time to increase his strength as much as he can.

"You can use this time to open the rest of your eight extraordinary meridians." Old Tang voice rang out.

Tang Wulin nodded his head as he knew the effects of opening the meridians were pretty good. Not only would it boost his cultivation speed but also his recovery speed and his body.

"Also, you should try and see if you can raise your cultivation to rank 60." Sleipnir voice rang out.

"Your spirit can give me another ring?" Questioned Tang Wulin but Sleipnir shook her head,

"Lucky for you, the Gold Tree left you with some its power and also its spirit ring. So once you reach rank 60, you can fuse with its spirit ring." Said Sleipnir causing Zeref to be shocked.

"How old his the gold tree?"Questioned Zeref.

"Don't worry, you won't lose out on the level of the ring." Said Sleipnir with a delighted giggle.

Tang Wulin only sighed as he knew what he was going to be doing for the next few days. While he could train his other stuff, it would be easier to do so in combat and so it would be best if he focuses on his cultivation.

As Tang Wulin was about to begin to cultivate, he heard footsteps nearing the door. He spread his senses out and could tell who was approaching his room.

"It's open Na'er. You can come in." Said Tang Wulin.

The door was promptly open with Na'er walking in with a pleasant smile on her face. He watches as she secures the door and threw away her shoes to the side of the room. Then skip toward the bed he was on and jumps on to it.

"You want to sleep together?" Questioned Tang Wulin causing Na'er to nod her head.

A faint smile appeared on his face as he fixed the bed and cover. Then he lifted up the cover so Na'er could slip inside and then lower it over the both of them. He felt Na'er moving her arms around his body and resting her head on his chest.

"...Say, big brother, we will be able to save Yuanen right?"Questioned Na'er as she felt her brother rubbing her head.

"I mean, we won't be losing anyone on the journey right?"

'I see now.' Thought Tang Wulin.

Na'er truly fears the thought of one of them dying on this trip or never being able to return. Tang Wulin stop rubbing her head and moved his hand to pinch her lovely cheeks.

"W-Wulin stop!" Exclaimed Na'er as she felt Tang Wulin squeezing down hard.

"You shouldn't underestimate them. After all, I didn't train or become friends with people who would die so easily."Said Tang Wulin causing Na'er eyes to widen.

Tang Wulin said nothing else, but Na'er furrowed her brow. Then her face became serious as her violet eyes began to shine.

"We will make it back. All of us." Said Na'er with absolute confidence in her voice.

"Hm, I do have a question." Said Tang Wulin.

"Yea?"

"Gu Yue knowledge about hell is from her memories of the Silver Dragon King or is it really from the Pagoda?" Questioned Tang Wulin.

He asks this because he had a feeling she was using the Pagoda as a cover-up. It wasn't like she could actually come out and say she knew this because she was over a billion years old.

"Yea. We're able to retain the memories of the Dragon God."Said Na'er causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

"Also, is it possible for you and Gu Yue do spirit fusion." Said Tang Wulin causing Na'er to fall in thought.

'Logical we can...But it's not like we like each other enough to actually tried before.' Thought Na'er as she recalls all of her interaction with Gu Yue.

"It may be possible, but we would have to test it out." Said Na'er causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

"See if you guys can do it and if you aren't able to make any progress for the week, then it's fine. Anyway off to bed, we're going to be busy for the next few days." Said Tang Wulin but then Na'er stared at him with her eyes shining.

'Ah right.'

Tang Wulin moved forward as Na'er met him halfway and their lips connected.

Four days have passed since the revelation of Yuanen Yehui situation and the decision to go to the demon world. Right now Mu Ye and the Elders have already gathered enough supplies for the people who are going.

Now they were making up a plan for the journey and also any backup plan for hypothetical situations. While this was going on Tang Wulin, already opened and connected all of his eight extraordinary meridians a day ago.

Old Tang would be shocked at this speed if he didn't already know the strength and power of Tang Wulin body. With his body, Tang Would could have easily opened the eighth meridians years ago when he opened the ninth seal.

Right now he was trying to reach rank 60. Tang Wulin was sitting cross-legged in the lush garden with no one around him. Strangely enough, around him were multi-colored vines that seem to be coiling around his arms.

Tang Wulin didn't know his Blue Silver Genesis vines were carefully coiled around him as he was breaching the rank-60 bottleneck. He could feel his soul power was upgraded to a new level as it swept over his body.

His soul power consists of a bizarre mixture of color, that he would have mistaken it as because of Sleipnir but he could feel distinct types of aura that weren't hers.

'It's done.' Thought Tang Wulin as he let out a sigh and opens his eyes.

Six rings appeared prominently behind him. Black, Purple, Purple, Black, Multi-Colored and finally Green-Gold.

"Amazing." Said Zeref as he appeared next to Tang Wulin and began to stare at the Green-Gold ring behind him.

Zeref could feel a remarkable type of energy inside of that ring. Not only that but he could feel the aura of protection and life inside of the ring.

'Is it similar to the Tenrou Tree?'

"One million year spirit ring." Said Sleipnir as she appeared next to Tang Wulin with a complicated look.

"Another one million ring, huh." Said Zeref as he shook his head.

He swears Acnologia luck with these rings is getting insane and ridiculous as time goes on. Tang Wulin, on the other hand, was furrowing his brow as he turned to Sleipnir.

"I can't seem to fully activate the skill." Said Tang Wulin causing Sleipnir to nod her head.

"It seems the Gold Tree put a restriction on it." Said Sleipnir causing Tang Wulin to raise a brow.

"It's likely because your spirit power isn't ready to handle the full power or you may need more soul power to fully utilize it." Said Sleipnir.

"I guess that does make sense. It's, after all, a one million year spirit ring. Let's see the effect while it's being restricted."Said Zeref causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

His sixth ring lit up causing a distinctive silhouette of a gigantic golden tree to appear behind Tang Wulin with golden lights appearing behind him. Then the grass and plants around began turning golden one by one.

Tang Wulin was seated in a room of glittering gold. Strangely enough, his fifth soul ring lit up too and then a dense force of life energy exploded from his body intertwining with the golden plants.

Then both of his rings turned off with the dense life energy and golden lights disappearing. The plants and grass were returned to normal.

'Wow.' Thought Tang Wulin as he started to comprehend the effects of his sixth soul ring. He turned to Zeref who was staring at him in surprise and began to relay what he knew.

From what it did, he could discern it was a domain skill that allowed him to manipulate and use all of the plants in the garden as his 'eyes.' For example, the tree down from him, he was able to metaphorically see through the leaves and know what was in front of it.

"You could do that much even while restricted?" Questioned Zeref in surprise.

While the ability may not seem any special at first, one must understand with this ability it was possible for him to instantly scout over a whole area and spot any enemy hiding. No enemy would be able to hide from Tang Wulin in a grassy area or a forest.

And that was only with the restricted version of the skill.

"Hmm, from what I could discern it may be possible, the unrestricted version may be able to accurately cover a whole city or even a country." Said Sleipnir shocking both Zeref and Tang Wulin.

"...Ok, what about when your fifth soul ring lit up?"Questioned Zeref as he came back from his shock.

"I think the Gold Tree resonated with Sleipnir ring and the life energy inside of me." Said Tang Wulin causing Zeref to furrow his brows and Sleipnir eyes to lit up.

"Interesting, this is just a theory but it may be possible to increase the effect of the Gold tree soul skill with the life energy and Avatar of life." Said Sleipnir.

"By how much are we talking about?" Questioned Zeref.

"Not even I know, maybe 50? 60? Or even more. And that isn't even bringing in the fact it that may be able to stack onto each other into the equation."Said Sleipnir as she really didn't know the effects that it would have.

"Well now, with this we should be ready for the trip to hell." Said Zeref as he began massaging his temple.

'Time to get those Lacrima.'

Another four days passed before it was time to journey to hell. This was mostly because it took that much more time to finalize the plan and get everything ready.

Everyone who was in the garden last week was standing in the same garden. They all had solemn expression as they knew it was time. Mu Ye scan the group with an unreadable expression, although surprised appeared in his eyes when he passes by Tang Wulin.

'He broke through I see.'

"Remember the plan. 1. See if Yuanen Yehui can form a resonance with the dormant seed and see if she can track it 2.Began tracking the seed, while also avoiding the attention of all of the high-class demons 3. Destroying the seed and then using her gate to leave hell with everyone." Said Mu Ye as he looks at all of the youths in front of him with a grim expression.

Each one of them could be considered monsters in their own rights. Not only from possessing the qualification to be apart of Shrek Seven Deadly Monsters but also from surviving Wulin hell training that even caused Mu Ye himself to shiver.

The intelligent thing would be to stop them from going, so they can mature and reach their maximum potential but considering these are Wulin friends.

'They may act just like him and disregard my command.' Thought Mu Ye in depression.

He doubts anyone who could befriend that brat would be simple or easy to control. Shaking his head, he made sure to ask if they memorize the contingency plan and then gave the supplies.

"Remember, if you sense or see any high-class demon. Abandoned the mission as your lives are more important."Said Mu Ye.

"Alright, Yuanen Yehui do it now." Said Mu Ye causing her to nod her head.

Six purple-black wings appeared behind Yuanen Yehui and her eyes began to shine fiercely with a scarlet color. Above her, a pitch-black door with demonic and ancient symbols on it appeared that gave off an ominous feeling to those who saw it.

The sacred door opens and out came a demon that looks a bit like Yuanen when she assaulted the two boys. The demon moves her gaze around but then felt an incredible pressure being applied on her by Mu Ye who only glared at her.

"Begone."

With a simple punch, the demon was eradicated by Mu Ye. Some of the people drew in a cold breath at the might of Mu Ye punch as they could feel an incredible amount of pressure and suppression from it.

"Hurry up and go." Said Mu Ye with a grumble.

"Alright, everyone." Said Tang Wulin as they all glance at each other with fierce determination.

"Its time to go to hell."

They all jump through the gate and then after a few seconds, the gate closed shut.

'Its all up to your luck and abilities now.' Thought Mu Ye with a sigh.
