If you still have the life to fight, don't wait until you regret it.
Dragon Emperor Douluo, Tang Lingluo
————————————————————————————————————————
"You're not from this world, are you?”Wu Zhangkong said after a moment of silence.
Tang Lingluo stared at Wu Zhangkong with his ancient and majestic golden eyes."I'm indeed not from this world…No! Or should I say, I'm not human at all! I am the Dragon King, the King of Bronze and Fire! No, it could be Golden King, Golden King, or Tang Lingluo! The strongest king of the dragon race!" Tang Ling's golden eyes seemed to be burning up.
"The Dragon King? Then... What are Tang Wulin and the others to you?”Wu Zhangkong looked straight into Tang Lingluo's golden eyes.
"Family, companions, friends, and reverse scales!”Tang Lingluo answered without hesitation.
"Remember what you said!" Wu Zhangkong said solemnly.
"Don't worry, Teacher Wu. The Dragon Clan has always been the most trustworthy! However, please don't tell Wulin and the others!”Tang Lingluo put the golden contact lenses back on and said seriously.
"Alright, I didn't hear what you just said. Go back and rest early!" Wu Zhangkong said.
"Thank you for your trust!" Tang Lingluo gave Wu Zhangkong a solemn bow before returning to her dormitory.
Wu Zhangkong stared at the resplendent starry sky, lost in thought. Then, he sighed and went to rest.
————————————————————————————————————
Tang Lingluo returned to the dormitory and saw Tang Wulin and the others meditating. Then, after pondering for a moment, he called out to Star Creator Dragon King in his sea of spirit.
"Saul, can I have another martial soul? Waiting for the spirit ascension platform was too slow! It's not conducive to my improvement." Tang Lingluo said as he looked at Star Creator Dragon King's huge body.
"Have you forgotten your identity? You are the top alchemist of the dragon race. It was extremely easy for Feng's Bronze and Fire King to fuse a martial soul in his body.”Star Creator Dragon King's majestic voice rang out.
"That's right! I'll go now. I'm standing at the peak of alchemy. The Dragon King of the peak! Can such a small matter stump me?" After saying that, Tang Lingluo stretched out his hand. He extended his left hand, and a red light flashed in his eyes. A mark slowly appeared on his palm. It was a blood-gold dragon-shaped tattoo. He stared at the mark in his hand. Suddenly, the scene around him changed rapidly. Wisps of gray gas floated, like dead spirits.
Nibelung, the land of the dead. Roots. (Or the Kingdom of Dragons)
Tang Lingluo closed his fingers and looked around in surprise.
Tang Lingluo did not know how long it had been since he last came to his Nibelung. His kingdom could be said to be a complete Demiplane now. The easternmost part of the kingdom was an endless volcano eruption, the westernmost part was an endless sea, the northernmost part was countless sky islands, and the southernmost part was an endless mountain range and land.
Tang Lingluo slowly landed at the mouth of the roaring volcano. He looked at the erupting lava expressionlessly and whispered," Open!" The boiling lava in the mouth of the volcano instantly became restless. It should be the array under the lava slowly rising.
"The thunderstorm is finally here."
Tang Lingluo stared at the dark clouds that were slowly forming and drifting toward the volcano. He could not help but smile excitedly as he sighed in his heart that his success rate had increased by another ten percent.
"Since the thunderstorm has arrived as expected, what do you need me to do?”
Star Creator Dragon King yawned lazily. Even though he had been kicked awake by Tang Lingluo in the morning and then hit in the face with a large water ball, he still felt drowsy after eating and drinking. He could not help but want to catch up on his sleep.
"Of course! I can't handle it alone!”Under the helpless gaze of Star Creator Dragon King, Tang Lingluo nodded as if it was a matter of course and admitted that he needed help.
"Saul, help me control that machine. Can you see the spherical crystal? You just need to continuously inject your star power into this spherical transparent crystal.”
Tang Lingluo pointed at a strange machine not far away from the forging table. There was a long needle-shaped pillar that looked like a lightning rod standing in an empty space. There was a small round pillar at the bottom of the thick pillar. There was a spherical transparent crystal on it that Tang Lingluo mentioned. It was crystal clear and sparkling under the sunlight.
"Starlight, help me hold this controller. When I say the number, press the number.”Tang Lingluo passed a remote control that looked like a TV remote control to the little grass snake Starlight. Starlight took it and saw that there were only one to nine numbers written on it. There were no other buttons.
"Also, Red Dragon, help me pull the bellows!”
As soon as Nero finished her words, an Eastern Dragon in mechanical red flew out of the crater. Tang Lingluo covered his face and sighed. Tang Lingluo often needed someone to pull the bellows to increase the firepower, and Tang Lingluo did not learn any shadow clone technique, so in the end, it was the red dragon who came to help!
"Then, what is this strange machine that requires my star power to support it?”Star Creator Dragon King looked at the spherical transparent crystal on the small cylinder curiously. He sized up the large lightning rod that was more than 30 meters tall and asked curiously.
"Uh, there's still some time, so I'll give you a brief introduction.”Tang Lingluo placed the bellows, firewood, and oil he needed in the most convenient place as he answered everyone's questions,""That machine is an electromagnetic controller. It can gather the power of lightning and store a large amount of lightning power. It can steadily transport the power of lightning to my forging table and further purify the impurities of metal minerals.”
" Although the power of lightning is undoubtedly destructive, there is no doubt that lightning also contains a glimmer of hope. You should have heard of it before, right? On a rainy day, a bolt of lightning struck a dead tree. The next day, a new sprout grew out of the dead tree.”
" Therefore, if I want the essence of the weapon to be refined, I also need to temper and refine the spirituality of the weapon. That is the power of lightning.”
"Then, why do you need my star power as a guide?”
Although he was powerful, his knowledge was definitely not as good as Tang Lingluo's. After all, alchemy knowledge was sold in single digits. Tang Lingluo would read some books to enrich himself whenever he had extra knowledge. It was better to know more so that he could solve problems in the simplest way.
"First of all, even though I've engraved runes on the lightning rod that can attract most of the lightning, it's best if I can attract all of it. I'm not afraid of wasting it…I'm afraid that if I suddenly run out of electricity during my forging, that would be terrible!”Tang Lingluo shrugged helplessly, indicating that he had no choice."" Secondly, there's still the problem of insufficient energy. After all, we don't know how long the thunderstorm will last. If it stops midway, we'll be finished, so..."
"So, just in case, you need to convert my star power into pure lightning power to replenish it, right?”Tang Lingluo could not help but glance at the handsome young man who was laughing.
"Hiss ~~"(Then what about the thing on my tail?)Little Grass Snake Starlight asked.
"Starlight, the thing in your hand is the switch to activate the magic array. I won't have the time and energy to activate the corresponding magic array to deal with all kinds of emergencies. I'll need someone to help me activate the magic array.”Tang Lingluo quickly explained the function of the remote control.
"Hiss ~!" (This works too?) Little Grass Snake Starlight shouted in shock.
It wasn't just the little Grass Snake Starlight who was shocked. The red dragon and the Star Forger Dragon King were also shocked. Science and magic were products of completely different theoretical systems. No one had ever thought of combining them before, yet Tang Lingluo had actually created a work that combined science and magic into one. How could they not be shocked?
For example, in the past, even if a mage left a medium to control the magic array when they set it up, they would still need to use their own mana to activate the medium to achieve their goal of controlling the magic array.
On the other hand, Tang Lingluo's remote control was made using scientific methods. It had its own independent energy source. Therefore, even if an ordinary person obtained the remote control and understood the principle of using it, they could control several magic arrays to fight several or even dozens of cultivators head-on as an ordinary person!
Of course, it also depended on the quality and power of the magic array, as well as the user's eyesight, courage, and relevant knowledge. Otherwise, even with the strongest magic array as a backup, it would only take a short time for the defense line to be broken.
However, Tang Lingluo's current work could be said to be a world-shaking innovation! It could set off an irreversible trend of magic and technological innovation!
"I don't want anyone to know about this work for the time being, so don't say anything.”Tang Ling and Luo Youyou reminded them as if they had heard what they were thinking.
He did not want to change the relationship between science and magic too quickly. If people knew that he was the one who opened up an innovative path, he would gain both fame and fortune.
After all, Tang Lingluo had read countless worlds and had countless inspirations in his mind. Any one of them could change this world, which was powerful but far behind the modern world in terms of civilization development, beyond recognition. It was impossible to tell what the original world looked like.
"We know." Starlight carefully played with the perfect crystal of technology and magic in his hand. He was afraid that if he accidentally broke it, it would trouble Tang Lingluo and add unnecessary burden to his master. After all, Tang Lingluo was very serious about completing this task perfectly today, and Starlight did not want to drag his master down.
"Don't worry. As long as you don't want to break this remote control, just holding it hard won't cause any damage.”Although Tang Lingluo did not look at Starlight, his sharp senses told him that Starlight was nervous, so he could not help but comfort him.
"Hmm?"
While Tang Lingluo was comforting Starlight with a smile, he suddenly felt small water droplets falling from the sky. His expression turned serious.
"It's starting! Opening the furnace! Fire!"
Tang Lingluo immediately lifted the Jun Flame onto the forging table and poured some kerosene that could stabilize the flame. He then lit a small fireball on his finger and threw it onto the Jun Flame that was ready. The Jun Flame, which was extremely resistant to heat, started burning fiercely!
"Starlight! Press button number one!"
Seeing that the dark clouds were about to rain heavily, Starlight immediately gave the order. Following Tang Lingluo's instructions, Starlight immediately pressed the number one button.
Buzz!
Just as the heavy rain that was enough to give a person a thorough bath was about to fall on the four people on the empty ground, a transparent thin membrane immediately enveloped the entire empty ground, completely isolating the heavy rain from them!
"Hiss ~! Hiss ~!"…What is this? Starlight asked in shock.
"Oh, this is one of the defensive magic arrays I designed. It can completely block physical (magic) attacks and even completely isolate them. It's the easiest to deal with water magic, so it's actually not a big deal.”
Tang Lingluo said casually.
…" By Starlight.
…" By Red Dragon.
"…You'll get used to it." by Star Forger Dragon King.
"Pull the bellows with all your might!"
Tang Lingluo shouted as he picked up all kinds of rare metal stones and threw them into the burning furnace.
"Roar ~! Got it!"
The red dragon's expression turned serious. He knew very well that this was a critical period. He could not afford to be careless. He immediately erupted with the powerful physique and strength that only dragon experts possessed!
Bear--
The fire that was originally maintained became violent as the red dragon pulled the bellows with great force. The temperature also rose rapidly, but Nero was still very dissatisfied.
"Not enough! The temperature was not high enough! Red Dragon! Add some fire!"
Because he only found out about the thunderstorm yesterday, even though Tang Lingluo had already prepared the relevant materials and tools, he still couldn't do anything! Time was still too rushed!
The process of refining metal required a lot of time and fire to melt the metal from inside out. Otherwise, no matter how skilled Tang Lingluo was, he would not be able to purify a piece of hard metal without high temperature!
If he had two days to prepare, Tang Lingluo would have been able to melt every piece of metal thoroughly. The metal would have softened, and Tang Lingluo would be able to play with it easily.
It was alright! Tang Lingluo was already prepared!
Boom! Boom!
The lightning in the sky seemed to have been provoked by something. It crazily bombarded a certain spot, waiting for the loud sound of the lightning striking a certain item. However, it seemed as if the lightning's bombardment was an illusion. When the lightning struck this strange machine that was like a lightning rod, it was as if it was absorbed and completely lifeless!
It was an electromagnetic controller specially made by Tang Lingluo!
Crackling--
Even the naked eye of an ordinary person could clearly see that a bolt of lightning had followed an invisible but definite thin line in the void and pounced on the furnace that was already burning brightly!
Boom!
It was like adding oil to the fire. The flames in the furnace were about to overflow, but now, they were completely overflowing! Moreover, even Star Creator Dragon King, who was far away from the furnace, felt an extremely high temperature that seemed to be able to burn a person to ashes in an instant.
Tang Lingluo was fully focused on the stove that he had modified into a microwave oven that used electricity to heat up the furnace. He stared at the metal inside the stove and, as expected, he smiled.
"As expected! My calculations weren't wrong. Just as I expected, the firepower increased once again, and the temperature also rose to a new level!”
Tang Lingluo thought excitedly as he continued to look up at the thunder, lightning, and storm that seemed to be about to vent its anger. Then, as the electromagnetic controller that he had created attracted all of them, he could not help but shout in his heart,""Come on! Let the storm come even more violently!”
The dark clouds above seemed to have heard Tang Lingluo's words. Instantly, the storm, lightning, and thunder grew stronger.
Wait…wait…
Finally! Looking at the metal that was about to burst into flames, Tang Lingluo took a deep breath and used the Forging Breathing Technique to absorb the heat from the furnace into his body. Then, the heat flowed through his arm and into the hammer in his hand. The Eighteen Blade Increasing Strikes drew an indescribable arc in the air and collided with the metal, creating a thunderous sound that was not inferior to the sound of lightning striking down from the sky!
Boom!
In the past, metal would always produce numerous sparks when forging; however, there were no sparks today. The moment the forging hammer hit the metal, Nero even felt a marvelous suction force, which gathered all the metal sparks and smashed them back into the metal.
"F * ck! What kind of forging technique was this?”
Starlight was dumbstruck. What kind of f * cking forging technique was this? Such a heavy blow didn't cause any sparks to fly out of the metal?!
On the other hand, Tang Lingluo did not seem to realize how shocking his forging skills were. His face remained calm as he hammered again and again! Tang Lingluo's blood-gold eyes seemed to have been dyed red by flames. All that was left was the metal that was trembling in the sea of fire!
Spirit of Words, Bronze Throne! It was a "blood explosion"!
Tang Lingluo had cautiously activated two of his buffs during the crucial forging process!
In the past, no matter how careful he was when forging, he would not activate the Spirit of Words during battle! Not to mention the "Blood Burst" that was unique to the dragon bloodline!
This meant that Tang Lingluo was not only very cautious, but he was also struggling!
"It's time for me to completely step into the second rank!”
Tang Lingluo took a deep breath. There was no change in his expression, but his right hand that was holding the forging hammer was growing thicker and stronger in a completely illogical way. Golden dragon scales were growing on his right hand, and it had already grown to three times its original size!
"This brat! Have you finally decided to open the next door?”Sensing the change in Tang Lingluo's aura, Star Creator Dragon King glanced at Tang Lingluo and sighed.
"However," Tang Lingluo frowned as he looked at his thick and deformed arms. He did not feel happy about the increase in strength."Although my grasp of muscle strength has skyrocketed due to the activation of the second rank HP Burst, and my strength has also increased by two to three times…but! The precise control of speed and strength (technique) had been severely weakened!”
Tang Lingluo could not help but feel dissatisfied with his speed, strength, and technique. It was these three aspects that formed the basic strength SanJiao shape. Tang Lingluo had been trying his best to maintain the three SanJiao shapes as equal-sided SanJiao shapes. Only by improving the strength, speed, and technique of the three SanJiao shapes would he be able to crush all his enemies without any flaws.
However, once this stable isoscopes was broken by force, then…
"They will completely break their habits. At the critical moment, they will reveal a huge flaw due to the sudden change in their strength!”Tang Lingluo's face darkened even more,""In a life-and-death battle, although becoming stronger may bring an overwhelming victory, it is also more likely that someone will seize the flaw and kill him!”
Not to mention forging, alchemy, and cooking, which required great control over one's strength. Whether one had a trace of strength or a trace of strength, the final product would be worlds apart!
It was the same work with the same function, but why was it that other people could make priceless treasures and masterpieces that were handed down from generation to generation, while your work was a piece of junk that was sold on the street? This was the best proof!
Compress, compress, compress again!
Tang Lingluo tried his best to control the strength brought by his bulging muscles. By compressing his muscles, not only would his strength become stronger, but his control over his strength would also become stronger! The strength of the loose steel bars could not be compared to the steel bars that were woven together in a reasonable way!
Soon, Tang Lingluo's arm, which had been severely deformed due to the exposure of his meridians and was thick and unsightly, shrunk back to its original white and tender lotus root that would not change even if it was exposed to the wind and sun every day. However, there were still blood-gold dragon scales on his arm as he continued to refine the mixed metal! Starforge Dragon King and Red Dragon, who was busy taking a break, were dumbfounded.
"F * ck! This brat…is he cheating?"
Even though Tang Lingluo had shrunk his arm (compared to the previous size), his strength did not weaken. Instead, it became stronger!
This could be heard from the forging sounds. Compared to the soul-stirring thunder-like sounds from before, it was sharp and revealed. It made people feel that although the strength was strong, it was easy to see and find the flaws. However, after Nero activated the second stage of 'liberation', she was like a hidden thunder in the dark clouds. Although she had hidden her power, her power was self-evident, which made people treat her seriously. The difference was obvious!
Compared to a sharp blade that was completely showing its edge and shining brightly, people would be more wary of a sharp blade that hid its edge and sheathed its sword. Because the unknown could easily arouse people's fear and vigilance.
————————————————————
"Almost there!"
Tang Lingluo looked at the pure metal that was close to 100% purity and calculated in his heart. He knew that it was time!
"Old friend, you have to hold on!”
Tang Lingluo took out the Murasame that had accompanied him as he grew up, but had now been broken into two because of her relationship with the king of the earth and the mountain. He did not care about its old age and the sharp blade that was still sharp due to careful maintenance. He fondled it with nostalgia. He touched it.
Tang Lingluo knew the first step: He had already overcome the difficulty of fusing all kinds of powerful and diverse metals. He had already completed what he needed to do perfectly. The next step was the most difficult part!
Next, he wanted to completely shatter Murasame and completely fuse her into the alloy that he had carefully refined and fused with all his strength before casting her into shape again!
If Village Rain's spirituality couldn't support him until he finished forging her again, then the sword would be dead. It would no longer be the original sword, and the spirituality that was born would no longer be the 'spirit' that had grown with him.
For Tang Lingluo, who had always been nostalgic, this was undoubtedly a sad thing. He would not be able to get over it for a long time and would not be able to walk out of this shadow.
"Buzz! Buzz!"
The slightly old Murasame seemed to understand Tang Lingluo's sincere feelings for it. She could not help but mutter to herself as she responded to her master's expectations.
"Would you rather choose destruction than to live on at death's door?”Tang Lingluo seemed to have understood Dao's call as he muttered to himself. Instantly, the determination in his flickering blood-gold eyes became firm.
"The moment of destiny has arrived-don't let me down! Speaking of which, I haven't given you a new name yet!”Tang Lingluo raised the Murasame in his hand and chuckled,""I'll give you a name when you're brand new!”
"Buzz!"
Murasame seemed to be excited as well, and she kept muttering to herself.
"Then, come!"
Tang Lingluo gritted his teeth and threw Murasame into the raging fire!
Clang--
Boom!
……
Forging, beginning to take shape... Unknowingly, the thunderstorm in the sky stopped, and the long-lost sunlight came out. Looking at the direction of the sun, it was already setting in the west. The forging time of Village Rain had actually lasted from morning to evening, and it had already lasted for at least six hours! (Nibelung. The time inside the root)
The electromagnetic controller in front of Star Creator Dragon King was already filled with lightning power and no longer needed to be replenished by Star Creator Dragon King. Even a god-tier powerhouse like Star Creator Dragon King could not help but feel exhausted after charging for six hours for Tang Lingluo's forging.
As for the Star Creator Dragon King, he was already exhausted just by being a portable power source to charge Tang Lingluo without expending a lot of energy. What about Tang Lingluo himself?
The dragon race's " blood explosion " had reached its limit at some point and was instinctively retracted by its body.
It was still struggling to maintain the state of being able to permanently activate the bronze throne.
In the past, Tang Lingluo would only sweat after a very long time. Now, he would sweat profusely with just one strike of the hammer.
The exhaustion of mental strength, the control of strength and soul power, and the choice of angle couldn't tolerate any mistakes.
All kinds of hammers of different styles and shapes hit different positions of the weapon with different strength. He had knocked on the right spot and strived to not leave any flaws behind to forge the most perfect weapon.
Time ticked by, and it was already late at night. Tang Lingluo was still oblivious to the situation and continued to forge at a high intensity. Star Creator Dragon King and the others watched quietly. None of them had the thought of leaving to rest. All that was left was to watch Tang Lingluo complete this unprecedented masterpiece!
Finally…
The night passed, and the first ray of dawn shone on the empty ground the next morning. Tang Lingluo was about to complete his meticulous forging.
Tang Lingluo pulled out the newly-born Murasame from the furnace with his bare hands. He completely ignored the flames burning his right palm. With a flash of his mind, a wind blade slashed across his left palm, which he had deliberately lowered his defense. His golden eyes turned blood-gold once again. A stream of hot and bright blood shot out from his left palm and sprayed on the black Murasame's body. It made an ear-piercing sizzling sound and evaporated into white mist.
Chi! When the sharp blade entered the bucket, the cool water immediately turned into boiling water. Sharp Blade changed to ten buckets of cold water in a row and finally stopped boiling like before.
"Hehe…It's done…"
Tang Lingluo relaxed and sat on the ground weakly. He had been forging continuously for almost a day and a night. If he had not gone through countless extreme training sessions in the cultivation space and the flawless Ascetic Door of the Southern Cross, he would have died halfway through the forging process, let alone 24 hours of extreme forging.
Many old Master Forgers had spent too much of their energy and vitality to forge a masterpiece of their own. As a result, the day the masterpiece was born was the day the Master Forger died of exhaustion.
" Hehe…" Tang Lingluo chuckled as he looked at the inconspicuous black Murasame. He smiled happily,""Indeed, this is the last step…Thank you for making it through!”
"Buzz!"
A weak but firm voice rose quietly. It was the voice of Murasame, who was in Tang Lingluo's hand.
"Hahaha…don't be anxious! Very soon, you will be able to shine with your own brilliance.”
The sun is high in the sky, Nibelron. It was already noon. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot into the sky. The exhausted people squinted their eyes and stared at the sharp blade in Nero's hand, as if they were afraid of being pierced by the cold light reflected by the blade.
Tang Lingluo looked at the freshman in his hand with satisfaction and said softly,""From now on, your name will be Dragon Slaying Saber!”
Then, he quickly clapped his hands and six faint green lights were injected into the six black stones on the ground. Immediately, a layer of golden light was released from the six stones, forming a faint golden light shield that enveloped Tang Lingluo. Tang Lingluo slowly turned into a white cocoon.
After an unknown period of time, Tang Lingluo's cocoon was torn apart by a blood-gold claw from the inside out. The perfect creature leaped out of the crack and spread its white membrane wings in the air. He floated in the well like a giant cross, the reflection on his blood-gold scales illuminating the darkness.
He was graceful and graceful, between an angel and a devil. Even the king of the earth was not as perfect as him when he transformed into a dragon. He was the new Dragon King, Golden King Tang Lingluo, a great creature that was second to no one and above all. In the era without the Dark King, he was the throne of the world!
Then, Tang Lingluo slowly turned back into a human. He looked at his right hand and a purple-black tachi appeared in his hand. Then, two red soul rings flew out from his feet. He was excited. If anyone saw this, they would be scared to death. The first soul ring was a hundred thousand years old, and both of them were hundred thousand years old. Tang Lingluo's soul power had already reached rank-27. He could become an ordinary rank Spirit Elder at the third rank.
Tang Lingluo calmed down and left Nibelung. Roots.
