Dragon King of Apocalypse

In a dark palace that was swirling darkness, with chains hanging from the ceilings. In the hallway were countless figures kowtowing, with four white pillars right beside them.

Down from them was a giant ivory throne with a figure sitting in it. The figure wore an ancient armor that held spikes and ancient runes that glowed with an ivory glow.

This being didn't look human but had the structure of one, their skins glowed Ivory as if they were made out of energy. Spikes could be seen protruding from their body, with their head having six of them.

"...Hm, what an interesting planet." The figure muttered as it opened its four eyes that shined with a silvery glow. His voice rang through the room, shaking the palace and causing the figures to tremble.

The figure didn't say anything for a bit as its eyes glowed, it was then a figure was walking into the palace. It looked similar to the figure on the throne but instead of six spikes on its head.

It only had three, it was glowing with an emerald shine, matching with its emerald armor and spear. The figure moves down, kneeling in front of the figure that was sitting on the throne.

"My Lord..."

"Emerald Emperor, take a pack of our Legion and head down to the planet where we sent the Rioting Pillars."

"Was there a problem down there? I thought out squadrons had it covered?"

"They ran into the inhabitants of the world and were forcibly pushed back. Go back down, slaughter them and take over the planet."

"As you command... What about the other plane-"

"It's fine, the others will handle it. But the faster you can take over the planet, the better equipped we will be." The Emerald Emperor nodded his head.

"I shall do as you say, My Ivory Lord."

The Ivory Lord watched as the Emerald Emperor walked out of the palace, falling into thought.

'Three worlds tied together but that thing is just sitting above and watching the fun... I swear I will kill it after I'm done with these three worlds.'

In a gray-white world, where mist and fog obscured the sky, with numerous mountains and hills under it. A small portal began opening up, space twisting and parting before six figures dropped down from the sky.

Tang Wulin felt his feet touching the ground with five other figures landing around him, all of them glancing around. Tang Wulin had already spread out his spiritual sense, which crossed tens of kilometers, sensing a few abyssal creatures around.

He already informed them of his spiritual sense of special ability to be unnoticed by anything lesser than a divine sense. While all of them were slightly jealous of this, they also understand how invaluable this was in their present situation.

"There are a few of them around."

"Okay, it seems the Sage King hasn't noticed us yet, let's use this time to hurry." Said Zhang Huanyun while glancing around before motioning everyone to move.

They quickly began moving, Tang Wulin leading the way while Dongfeng and Zhang Huanyun were moving behind him. Cao Dezhi behind them with Yun Ming guarding the back, this was the formation they came up with.

It didn't take them long to reach their destination, seeing a bunch of abyssal creatures. There these strange bat-shaped creatures, four arms, and wings with multiple eyes.

While the others looked like these knight-like creatures that were moving with a gigantic sword behind them.

They were strangely carrying something in their arms, moving towards an unknown location causing Tang Wulin and the others to narrow their eyes.

"Do you think?"

"Let's find out."

Tang Wulin wasted no time, his Golden Dragon Spear appearing in his hand before thrusting it out, piercing towards an abyssal creature. The abyssal knight only had a second to blink before it was pierced through by a golden spear.

Tang Wulin swiftly pulled out the spear, twirling it before bisecting the abyssal knight and then thrusting out his other hand. Grasping the face of the abyssal bat that was on his left and crushing its head with his hand.

The bisected knight couldn't stop itself from turning into grey mist, alongside the bat whose figure shattered. The grey mist began trembling before moving towards the spear, which was sucking it all up.

The other abyssal creatures blinked their eyes before releasing a roar as they moved to pounce on Tang Wulin. But they were too late, as other figures appeared and smashed them down.

A gigantic staff smashed down on the creatures, a blood-colored sword swept through them, a spear pierce through them. All of these creatures turned into mist, which was all absorbed by Tang Wulin spear.

Tang Wulin didn't pause as he dashed towards the other fifty abyssal creatures in front, his spear hacking, whipping, and sweeping out. With the other five Limit Douluo behind him joining, wishing to hastily finish the battle.

Within the next few minutes, the abyssal creatures were killed, with their essence being absorbed by the Golden Dragon Spear. Except for one of them that was pinned to the ground by Yun Ming spear.

"So how are we going to break it?" Questioned Chen Xinjie as he glared down at the beast in disgust.

"I'm unsure, I have a feeling it wouldn't react to the way we interrogate humans." Muttered Yun Ming causing the others to nod their heads but Tang Wulin only held out his hand.

'Eight Soul Ring: Branch of Akasha.'

Just as his rings began appearing behind him causing the eyes of the people to widen at what they saw. Red, Red, Red, Orange gold, Multi-colored, Green-Gold, Pinkish-blue, Pinkish-blue, and Crimson-scarlet rings appeared around Tang Wulin.

With Yun Ming and the others being able to feel a terrifying pressure emitting from these rings. The pressure from the rings was able to cause even the soul rings in their own body to shiver in fright.

"Just what kind of ring arrangement are those?" Questioned Zhang Huanyun with his eyes wide in shock.

He has seen people with all red rings before, like Yun Ming and the other top soul masters in the world. Especially those old freaks who aren't the limelight but were the previous masters of the top organization.

Yet he never saw someone with distinctive colored rings and what's more, he saw one of them was over two hundred thousand.

"This... Are those million-year rings?"Questioned Qiangu Dongfeng in disbelief causing the others to tremble.

What did it signify to have a one million year ring?

It was said that with a ten-year spirit ring, one's martial spirit would increase by ten in strength. With a hundred-year it will be a hundred and a thousand it will be a thousand increase.

So with all of this, what did it mean with a one million year ring? It meant one's martial spirit would increase by one million.

And this was only with one ring!

Figures like Yun Ming could only be equal to a one million ring overall and that was it.

Yet Tang Wulin potentially not only has one but five of them! Didn't this mean his martial spirit had been increased by five million?

Who could even compare!

Not even Tang San, who was said to have a one million year soul beast as his final ring. Nor Huo Yuhao, who was also said to have a one million year ring and the Evil Eye Tyrant Beast could compare to this!

"... He could kill gods, so it shouldn't be a surprise you know."Muttered Cao Dezi as he watched the multi-colored vines that were wrapped around the creature shining.

But even they could tell he was trying to come to terms with what he saw. It was then that Tang Wulin's voice rang out.

"Okay, I was able to find out a little bit. They seem to be carrying these resources to the passageway to the next floor, as they were ordered to by the Demon Empress."

"You read its memory?"

"More like a view but yeah." Said Tang Wulin as he released his vines before stabbing his spear into the creature and absorbing it.

"Say Wulin... How strong is your body at the moment?"Questioned Yun Ming causing Tang Wulin to arch a brow.

"Peak of Third Class, why?"

But he didn't receive an answer as the people around stared at him blankly before glancing at each other and sighing.

"Are those different colored rings, one million years?" Questioned Qiangu Dongfeng, too curious to not know.

"Yep."

"..."

"..."

Cao Dezi gave his Heartless Sword an aggressive jerk, sprinkling the mist from his blade, watching it move away. Before he sidesteps a blade coming down on him, that crashes into the ground and produces cracks.

Before he hacked down, splitting the abyssal knight and then sweeping out with his sword as a flock of abyssal creatures charged at him.

Dozens of them, knights, and bats were roaring out while trying to turn him into pieces. The heartless sword began shining before hacking out, slashing three of the abyssal creatures before bisecting the rest.

As this was going on the others were cleaning up the other abyssal creatures before everything went silent.

As the ground around them had long since turned into a land of a massacre, cover in craters, fissures, and cracks around.

Grey mist was swirling around before forcibly being pulled into a golden spear that was being held up. While there were many abyssal creatures, especially on floor one with them mounting over fifty thousand.

The abyssal creatures on this floor weren't strong by any means, only at the level of a Soul King.

This made it easy for them to slaughter their way through the abyssal floor one while making their way to the next passage.

With Tang Wulin also feeling his spear was close to being full causing him to gradually leak the energy into his body while moving.

But it wasn't towards the realm core inside of his body but towards his spirit souls who were surprised by this. Yet they didn't mind, as Leviathan and Taotie began eagerly absorbing the energy.

While he had Yggdrasil manually fuel it to Kirin and Serial so they can also increase in their strength.

"Are you sure this is okay? Should we be using it for the realm?"

'Technically yes but that can be made up after absorbing the floors themselves. I plan to increase my strength as much as I can at the very least. As the next breakthrough with my God Realm will be more terrifying and deadly.' Thought Tang Wulin as he still recalls how helpless he was against the universe law.

Even with the help of the cores, his father seal, and the divine weapons. Forcing him to have to trick the law than combat it, something he severely disliked.

'For the present, I should work on growth!'
