Dragon King of Apocalypse

It was morning, with the sun rays shining through the forest of Star Dou. Insects were moving around the forest, with birds chirping and leaves on the trees were swaying. There was a sparkling lake in the middle of the area with occasional ripples forming.

If one only took a glance at the lake, one wouldn't notice anything spectacular or extraordinary about the lake. But of course, that was only if they look only at the surface and not spread their senses out to see what was under.

Under the water, was a handsome man with long goldish-white hair and blue highlight. He was wearing only pants with no shirt or shoes and he was sitting in a lotus position. Yet that wouldn't be the thing that would attract one notice.

No, the first thing that one would notice would be the lack of water around the man, even though he was underneath the lake. Such a thing would be a shock to only some, as this was something that a strong soul master or spirit master could do.

But what was shocking to the rest, would be the deadly purple-black energy that was constantly surrounding Tang Wulin's body. There was only sparks flashing around his body, similar to how one would look like if they had lightning coiling around them.

Yet the sparks coiling around Tang Wulin was not the strangest thing about him. As compared to what was happening inside of his body, it was far more interesting.

Tang Wulin internals can be summed up in one harsh word, destroyed.

Countless sparks of purple-black destruction energy were rampaging through his body with nothing coming to stop it. All of his organs, bones, and even his flesh were being damaged by this energy with the bare amount of resistance.

All of his bones were being broken down as the purple crackle of energy swept pass it. Numerous sounds of bones forcibly breaking, flesh popping and organs bursting asunder could be heard from his inside.

He had to endure the agonizing pain while guiding the purple light through his internals. It was not wrong to say, the color of his face has been changing throughout this whole session.

His body released waves of thunderous rumblings as he shattered another bone.

At the moment, Tang Wulin was undergoing the Second Level of the Body Sect Revamped Method. In which the body undergoes constant stimulation from the destruction energy. If one was able to achieve this level of the Innate Secret Technique and master it.

They would gain a body that was truly terrifying and horrifying. Their flesh, bones and even organs would become more and more terrifying, to the point where it was a bit frightening. That was just their body alone, just how terrifying would their strength be once they passed this stage?

Would it be on the level of a Spirit Beast? Or maybe on the level of those with the bloodline of a Dragon?

Of course, this would only be possible if they were able to complete the training. As the process of the training was something that even caused all of the Body Sect Elders and Mu Ye himself to shiver in horror.

Tang Wulin's body trembled as he begins to grit his teeth under the excruciating pain. At the moment, his bones that were already broken were being destroyed even more as the destruction energy began to seep into them.

As if they were undergoing a transformation, the bones started to shimmer and glitter with a light purple glow, while sparks began to flicker around them. If one could see these purple sparks around the bone, they would be shivering involuntarily from the feeling they gave off.

Even his blood was being damaged, with it getting disintegrated from the destruction energy. All of this was causing Tang Wulin's face to turn pale as time went on, to the point it became pale-white.

When it looks like he was going to spurt out blood, a pule of green energy burst out from his soul core and swept through his body. This caused everything that the destruction energy ruined to be healed and rebuild as if it wasn't touched before.

Then after the green light of energy passed through and reformed everything, the purple-black destruction energy came once again.

It was only through destroying and reconstructing one body, that their constitution would become even stronger. With the combination of two of the primal force of the universe, one body could undergo a rebirth that could undoubtedly bring out their body full potential.

Horrifying sounds continuously rang through the air as Tang Wulin continued to endure the pain. He didn't know the pain would grow even more as the cycle continued. With various parts in his body continuously bursting and shattering apart.

This was extremely terrifying and frightening to anyone not because of the threat of death but because of the continuous pain. The Destruction Energy will force a person to stay awake as they train through this, as the pain wasn't something one could stay unconscious through.

Yet whether it was a blessing or a dreadful curse, the life energy will always stop a person from dying and will bring them back to peak form. This made it so, one couldn't even found solace in the sweet embrace of death as the Life Energy wouldn't allow that.

It was truly no wonder those disciples in the Body Sect hasn't yet mastered this level. Tang Wulin now knew exactly why they would shiver anytime the second level was mention. Then again, this was only because of his action at the moment.

As one would slowly do this type of training throughout some of the months or up to a year. Since this type of training was too tyrannical and exhausting.

This wasn't just testing one willpower as they go through the cycle of everlasting pain. But also their pain tolerance of how much they can benefit from each session.

Yet at the moment, Tang Wulin was trying to complete the second stage in a matter of days. He was boldly cycling through breaking and reconstructing his body without any rest. If Mu Ye saw him doing this, he would have slapped his disciple silly and scold him harshly at his dangerous attitude to his life.

As this type of method, is too ruthless and brutal. The amount of pain one would be feeling from having their inside getting disintegrated by the destruction energy was too much. Most likely only those old demons could understand, the pain Tang Wulin was going through at the moment.

Although this method was also making his blood essence denser and stronger from the constant battle with the destruction energy. It was also because of this, that most of the 'contamination' in one blood essence, would get destroyed.

At the moment, Tang Wulin flesh was being refined through the constant breaking down and rebuilding of the destroyed parts. This was causing every part of his body to gain an even greater foundation.

If one was to see the inside of his body, one could see his muscles and bones were gleaming with an extraordinary light, after every reconstruction. Dragonic roars were being produced and sounding through each of his limbs as if his dragon body was being awakened.

His golden bones and flesh were shining brighter and brighter after each attempt of trying to resist the boundless power of the destruction energy. Tang Wulin wanted to complete the second stage and maybe the third stage before he began to immerse himself in battle.

Mostly because it would be far easier to bring out his potential and allow him to reap the greatest benefit from the Innate Secret. He didn't know how long it would take before the completion of this method but he didn't mind as much.

If the event ends before he was done, then he would simply find another way. As it shouldn't be impossible for him to find an opponent to fight with all he has.

'Well hopefully, I don't miss it.' Thought Tang Wulin as he continued stimulating the cycle with more sounds reverberating through his body.

Birds were chirping as they flew over an area that was overflowing with lush vegetation and trees that were incomparably tall. The dazzling and warm sunlight was shining down over trees and plants that were scattered around.

This was the inner region of the Star Dou Forest, which was a place filled with the greatest amount of nature and vitality. It was a place that was the most mysterious to all soul masters whether they be from the Douluo or the other continent.

As practically no one as ever made it to the center or if they ever had, they never were able to return to speak about it.

In this place was a man who was staring off into the distance.

It was a handsome middle-aged man in a black robe with golden lines. He had black hair with one golden strand hanging and sharp deep golden pupil eyes. He wasn't overly muscular, but he was very tall with broad shoulders and a terrifying presence.

If any Soul Master was to see this man, they would be terrified stiff. As this was none other than Di Tian, the legendary Beast God, and the strongest Spirit Beast known.

"How troublesome."Mutters Di Tian as he continues to stare out into the Star Dou Forest while thinking over the recent events.

This Beast God event was different than the others, as it seems his competition was more than he thought it would be. He was only expecting those hot-blooded or those Spirit Beast who haven't fully developed intelligence to try and challenge him because of the restriction.

As to them, the fact he was being 'restricted' only fifty thousand year cultivation would even the battlefield. Since every Spirit Beast that was over a hundred thousand years were all brought down to cultivation of fifty thousand.

This also applied to every other Spirit Beast, as they too were brought down. For example, if one was close to 100,000 years, his cultivation would be in the 40,000 and so on.

Because of this, many Spirit Beast thought they could suppress Di Tian since they believe his cultivation was a big part of his strength. But of course, they learned how wrong they were each event.

He would have thought by now they there wouldn't be any more competitors but it seems his thoughts were wrong. As for the first time in over a thousand years, some Spirit Beast whiches to compete against him.

'Well, it's not all bad.' Thought Di Tian, as his thoughts go back to his two Lords.

To say he was shocked at their cultivation progress would be an understatement. Na'er was only sixteen years old and yet she was already a Spirit Sage, making her the youngest in history. While he was annoyed with Na'er attitude and bearings before.

He had to admit her talent was truly tyrannical and overbearing. Something that he doubts anyone, whether they were humans or Spirit Beast could reach or compare to.

Her speed surpassed any soul master or Spirit Beast who rebirthed into a human before her. He was over ninty percent sure, that not even Huo Yuhao could compare to her. Then there was Gu Yue whose ability was no less than Na'er herself.

Even though he cultivation wasn't as high as her, her insight and comprehension of the elements had already reached a frightening degree. She was already at the level of implementing the seven-colored laws of the planes into her element. In fact, she wasn't far from being able to manipulate the origin of the element.

Combine that with both of them already being at the Spiritual Domain realm and both being trained by the top brass of humanity. Di Tian knew it wouldn't be long before his two Lords regain their pass glory or may even be able to surpass it.

Even though it was just her 'regaining' her power, the speed at the recovery was faster than originally thought.

'Of course, it would be easier and faster if they would just fuse back together.' Thought Di Tian in irritation.

But before he could continue his thoughts, he felt a spirit beast running up behind.

"My Lord." A voice rang out causing Di Tian to glance behind him to see a spirit beast rushing towards him.

It was a silver wolf with tribal markings on its fur and savage orange eyes. It was known as the Silver Wolf that was known for its savagery throughout the forest but this wolf held none of that savagery at the moment.

Now that Di Tian looks a bit closer, he could see a bit of fear and fright inside of the silver wolf's eyes.

"What is it?" Questioned Di Tian while spreading out his senses outward.

"My Lord! the Gol-"

Before the Silver Wolf could finish its sentence, the whole forest was illuminated as flames immediately overflowed through the sky. Di Tian watched as an enormous ball of flame was descending towards to where he was as if it was the sun itself.

"Get back." Said Di Tian towards the Silver Wolf that was trembling before he began to slowly clench his fist.

The Silver Wolf instantly turned around and began running away, too scared to even think of observing the great Beast God battle.

Di Tian smashed his fist out, striking against the ball of flame. His fist carried unrivaled power and excessive brutality as it began plowing through the ball of raging flames. Di Tian fist didn't stop for a moment, as if the heat and flames of the orb meant nothing towards it.

A second hadn't passed before the great ball of flame was destroyed before the might of Di Tian, who still had an indifferent look on his face.

"You wish to submit this early? Cheng Yan." Said Di Tian as his eyes slight narrow at the Spirit Beast in the sky.

In the sky was a gigantic vermillion bird with golden-red feathers that were similar to the scales of a dragon. It had a huge wingspan with it being big and long as 40 meters.

"Di Tian!" Shouted Cheng Yan as it stared down at the Golden Eyes Black Dragon King in front of it.

"Don't get too full of yourself! The time for you to surrender the title of Beast God and let a more worthy being rule, as come."Said Cheng Yan as the area around it began to heat up, while its eyes began to glow.

"It's too bad, you trash can't decide that." Said Di Tian as he waited for Chen Yan's attack to come.

Chen Yang let out a loud screech, as endless flames erupted out from its wings before it rushed down towards Di Tian.
