Dragon King of Apocalypse

'Not only that but my Curse Art has gotten way stronger.' Thought Tang Wulin as he slightly narrowed his eyes.

Compared to the time he used it on Star Luo Empire, it was far stronger and more potent. At first, he thought it was because of all the negative energy and emotion that the Demonic Killer Whales were giving off.

But even before this trial, he could its strength was growing. Now that he thought about it, the cursed art started growing after his body training with those waves.

'Could it be because of the Space Between Time?'

Tang Wulin didn't have enough time to think more about this as he was brought back to reality as a bunch of orange lights appeared.

They swiftly launched themselves into him. It was only because of Old Tang's voice that he was able to prevent his innate resistance from stopping it, allowing the lights to penetrate his body.

"Sea God Sixth Trial, Demonic Killer Whale Rebellion, Passed. The reward is the Demonic Killer Whale King Soul Ring and Soul Bone. The trial participant is not yet at the level where he can absorb the soul ring. Demonic Killer Whale King's Soul Ring will be evenly distributed according to age. Since the Participant has four soul ring that is one million years, the distribution shall be through the other four."

The next moment, the orange-gold ray of light has swept through, Tang Wulin felt a stream of energy through his body.

He could feel the similar feeling he felt from the Spirit Pagoda, Mahal, and the abyssal creature essence.

The feeling of his Soul Ring's increasing in years and cultivation! Just how strong was the Demonic Killer Whale King?

Its strength was close to being four hundred thousand years or higher. But as Tang Wulin felt its essence being absorbed he could tell how strong it was.

He summoned all of his soul rings behind him, something he hasn't done in a while.

Red, Red, Red all wrapped with multi-colored, Orange-gold, Multi-colored, Green-Gold and two Pinkish-blue rings hovering behind.

Tang Wulin could feel Leviathan, Tao Tie, and Sarial strength being increased by a hundred thousand years.

With Kirin being pushed from 100,000 years to two hundred-thousand and becoming an orange-gold ring.

With these changes, came the transformation of his body once again as he felt his strength rising even more.

Everything about his physique was being remodeled and refine once again, as the increased ring attribute got added on.

Yet before he could think more about this, another set of lights began shining in front of him. In front of him was a right arm bone.

Tang Wulin was able to tell this was the soul bone of the Demonic Killer Whale King. With its cultivation level, this soul bone should be a four hundred thousand soul bones.

With the right arm bone, he would have five soul bones, allowing his strength to gain an even bigger improvement.

It wasn't incorrect to say that to the world of Soul Masters, these bones were sometimes even more important than soul rings.

"They slaughter for these bones." Sleipnir's voice rang out with a sigh.

Indeed, these bones were enough to push a Soul Master to go out and hunt the Soul Beasts, leading to a massacre.

Yet Tang Wulin only chalk this up as the strong devour the weak, which were the humans after going through many trials.

They went from the weak to the strong, dominating the Soul-Beast and forcing them to near extinct.

From being held up in cities, hoping to survive the next day to beings who ruled over the land.

The right arm bones shined before piecing into Tang Wulin's body, specifically his right arm.

He let out a sigh as he felt the various changes going through his right arm as the bone began to fuse with it.

He could feel the Demonic Killer Whale King's spiritual power that resided in the bone was trying to attack him.

But it was instantly squashed by his Dragon Form, suppressed by his God Slayer and devoured by his Devil Slayer Art.

Once again he could feel his body improving and his strength leaping to new bounds. He had to admit, doing these trials was cutting the time and energy he needed for getting stronger.

While also solidifying his foundation, pushing his state to become perfect and his Devil Slayer Art also increased.

As he was thinking, he felt a bump on his back before a pleasant voice rang out.

"You actually did it!" Demon Soul Great Shark appeared behind him before circling him while gazing at him with adoration and awe.

The Demon Soul Great Shark from the start till finished had gotten lost in the battle between Tang Wulin and the Demonic Killer Whale King.

If you could call it a battle, as she saw how fast and easy Tang Wulin killed the whale king. It wasn't wrong to say the battle didn't even last for a minute.

"You didn't get hurt from the shockwave, right?"

"Nope! I was fine the whole time; I don't know how you did it but staying behind you made it so none of the suppression or the shockwave was able to touch me." Demon Soul Great Shark said as she started wiggling her body.

It was an interesting experience for her as she was able to see the battle of titans, without any danger of being hurt.

Of course, had there been any danger, she would have run away and left both of them in the dust.

"Say...Is it fun being human?"Questioned the Demon Soul Great Shark causing Tang Wulin to raise a brow.

"Why the interest?"

"Well, I'm bored down here, as there is nothing to do. I was thinking It would be fun to become one of those reincarnated humans."

"Well, I won't say anything about the joy of being human. But if you chose to become one when you cultivate to 100,000 years, you will have the hidden danger in your early days. If people find out your a transform soul beast, they may try and kill you, so hiding your identity is important. Although the growth rate for you guys, I have heard is terrifying fast." Tang Wulin said after a bit of thinking.

"You human love to kill too much." Muttered the Demon Soul Great Shark with dissatisfaction.

"Soul-Beast shouldn't be talking." Said Tang Wulin causing the Demon Soul Great Shark to lightly blush before she did lightly glare at Tang Wulin.

"Well on another note, the conflict between the two races won't be going on for too much longer." Muttered Tang Wulin causing the Demon Soul Great Shark to tilt her head before her eyes lit up.

"Now you pique my interest even more. Indeed, I must go to the human world to play and have some fun."

"Is fun the only thing you know how to do? Can't you act your age?"Questioned Tang Wulin at the shark who only rolled its eyes at him.

"Of course not but nothing interesting has happened except this. Being down here is way too boring. Besides it's not like I am 100,000 years old, only my cultivation is. I am only ninty years old." Demon Soul Great Shark said causing Tang Wulin lips to twitch.

'She really is a kid, if we look at it from the Soul-Beast perspectives.'

"But wait! Since I have to wait for another ten thousand years, will you still even be alive by then? I know you humans don't last long and I wanted to play with you."Muttered the Demon Great Soul Shark causing Tang Wulin to arch a brow.

"Who said I wanted to play with you."

"Of course you have to play with me! You are my savior! So you must!"

"That doesn't make any sense..."

"Of course it does! The heroes always play with the princess!"

'This damn shark.'

"Well she is still a kid, what do you expect." Yggdrasil voice rang out causing Tang Wulin lips to twitch.

"You're going to be dead..."Demon Soul Great Shark eyes lowered a bit with her smile fading away causing Tang Wulin to sigh.

"Don't worry, I will be alive in the next ten thousand years. I tend to not die, so maybe if you get strong enough, we can meet."Said Tang Wulin as he began stroking the head of the shark.

"R-really! Yes, since you said you will, you can't break out of your promise. Hehehe, I am going to be having fun, I only have to wait a bit."Muttered the Demon Soul Great Shark as she began laughing.

"Welp, I guess you have one more reason to save the world." Zeref's voice rang out causing Tang Wulin to roll his eyes.

'I didn't promise her anything, though.' Thought Tang Wulin but then he gave it up as he doubts he would be able to win an argument with a kid.

Zeref only chuckles before he moved towards the white shark and put his hand on top of her head before a light shined.

The shark princess face crumple as she felt something pouring into her mind before blinking her eyes and glancing all around.

Tang Wulin eyes slightly narrowed at this before sighing and shaking his head, already understanding what Zeref did.

"Something wrong?" Questioned Tang Wulin causing the princess to widen her eyes before shaking her head, as she was still confused about what happened.

She felt something touching her but no matter how much she tries and recalls, she can't remember what happened.

The more she tries, the less certain she was that something happened a few seconds ago.

"Let's go now." Said Tang Wulin as he grabbed on to the princess before dashing towards the surface.

The princess's eyes widen as she saw the terrifying speed they were moving at, as within the next seconds they reached the surface.

"I don't know where to go, so start directing."

"Right!"

In the next instant, Tang Wulin saw changes through the sea as a bridge made out of ice was made right in front of him.

It was being created at a rapid pace, Tang Wulin had to silently praise the shark for its control over the sea and ice element.

As his foot landed on the ice bridge, he launched himself forward, shattering the ice bridge below and behind him.

It didn't take long before he reached land, alongside the ice bridge. As he landed on the ground, he placed the shark back into the water.

"Bye! Remember your promise; I will see you in ten thousand years." The Demon Soul Great Shark began waving its fin.

"What's your name?" Questioned Tang Wulin causing the Demon Soul Great Shark to her descent from underwater.

"Hmm, not telling! You just have to figure out, when we meet next time!"

Tang Wulin lips twitch as he saw the Demon Soul Great Shark leave but he didn't focus too much on her as he opened his mouth.

"Continue!"

It was then a familiar voice rang out once again.

"Sea God Seventh Trial, the strongest showdown. Deep-Sea Demon Whale King, million years old."

Tange Wulin's eyes widen when he heard the condition of his trial. He couldn't stop the pleasant smile that started to appear on his face with his blood boiling.

'Time to see how strong a million-year beast is.'

But it was then the familiar voice rang out.

"Sea God Seventh Trial has ended. The Participant has passed, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has died."

"...What?"
