Douluo Dalu 3: The Legend of the Dragon King

At this point, accumulation was more like compression of spiritual power, and during this process, Tang Wulin could feel his own spiritual power slowly evolving under the pressure.

If he could use this opportunity to make a breakthrough to the Divine Origin realm, then that would be perfect.

After a long while, when his body turned numb again, Tang Wulin's body and mind gradually entered a profound immersive state.

This was a very wonderful feeling. His entire consciousness was completely immersed in his own body, and to him, his body was currently like a small world.

As the ruler of this small world, he was able to clearly sense every single minute change that took place in this world, and that was the most wonderful thing.

The human body had always been an enigma, and this mystery still hadn't been completely solved even after countless generations of research. Genetic research was still at a very elementary stage in the federation, and during this stage, more information had been acquired to make this research more meaningful.

Tang Wulin currently felt like a scientist who was studying the human body, thoroughly immersing himself in all of the minute changes in his own body.

The things that stood out the most to him were the Golden Dragon King seals.

At this point, there were still four seals left to be broken, and this was the first time he was able to see the seals within his own body with such realism and clarity.

In contrast with his past guesses and observations, Tang Wulin discovered that the seals that his father had created in his body were far more incredible.

He had never seen such complex and minute soul arrays, assuming that those really were soul arrays.

Back in the Blood God Legion, the Blood God Array had struck him with a sense of awe and marvel. The grand construction and the glorious array allowed him to truly feel just how incredible the Soul Master world was.

However, upon catching a clear glimpse of the seals within his own body, Tang Wulin was stunned to discover that even just the 15th seal was at least 10 times as complex as the Blood God Array, yet it was so tiny in comparison. One had to realize that these seals were situated inside his body! The aura imbued within the seals definitely didn't stem from soul power; it was clearly energy of a higher level, energy from the Divine Realm.

Each successive seal was several times more complex than the previous one, and even with Tang Wulin's current level of spiritual power, he felt as if his mind were about to collapse just from taking a glance at the final two seals.

That was a clear indication of just how fearsome the spiritual power imbued within those two seals were.

Father, just how powerful is the Golden Dragon King energy within these seals? 

At his current cultivation rank and bodily condition, Tang Wulin was confident that he would be able to break the 15th seal without much trouble, but what about the next seals?

He had no confidence at all in his ability to withstand the power of the 16th seal, and the final two seals were certainly completely out of the question.

There was no doubt in Tang Wulin's mind that the power that his father had so painstakingly sealed away was definitely of the godly level, and it could well be power that was of a superior caliber to the entire Douluo Plane.

Back when he had first transformed into the Golden Blood Dragon, he had already realized that this power was definitely not something that he could touch as it was filled with aggression and destructive tendencies.

Only through deep observation could one gain a better understanding of oneself, and Tang Wulin was gradually struck by a sense of enlightenment.

If his body were a small world, then how could he get this small world to unleash more power?

He seemed to have already grasped onto something abstract, but he was unable to articulate exactly what this feeling was.

Finally, as the pain being inflicted on him faded, his consciousness also returned.

The familiar authoritative voice rang out beside his ears again. "The fifth trials of the Sea God, Tidal Body Refinement, has been completed; would you like to continue?"

Tang Wulin had returned to the golden world again, and all of his pain had completely faded, replaced by a sensation that made him feel as if he had been born anew.

He could clearly sense that he had completely consolidated himself at the demigod level, and his foundation was more unshakeable than ever. His outward appearance hadn't changed much, but he could feel the joy of this complete transformation, and it was an exhilarating feeling.

The pain that he had endured during the fifth trial hadn't been in vain. The only thing that was slightly disappointing to him was that he was unable to use this trial to progress straight to the quasigod level.

After heaving a faint sigh, a smile appeared on Tang Wulin's face, and he declared, "Continue!"

He needed more intense stimulus. The fifth trial had already enhanced him so significantly; what would the sixth trial bring?

"Sixth trial of the Sea God, Deep Sea Battle. Assist the Demon Spirit Great White Shark Race to force back the Evil Spirit Orca Race."

Deep Sea Battle?

After the 49 days of body refinement, Tang Wulin felt like a trial of the same nature would be more beneficial to enhancing his body and powers, so he was rather disappointed to hear that the sixth trial involved battling sea soul beasts.

As a Limit Douluo, this type of battle trial was most likely going to be easier, just like the fourth trial.

In the distance, a pristine white dorsal fin appeared on the surface of the sea, heading toward him at a high speed. There was only one dorsal fin, and it was particularly eye-catching on the surface of the clear blue sea.

Following the fifth trial, the sea's enmity toward him had already faded, but that didn't mean that it was friendly toward him at all, and the waves were still crashing into his body with tremendous force.

Tang Wuiln sank into the water and caught sight of his comrade.

This was a sleek and graceful shark with a beautiful streamlined body, allowing it to swim through the water incredibly quickly.

Just a short while later, it had already reached Tang Wulin and began to swim in circles around him.

Tang Wulin could sense the friendliness it was transmitting toward him, and a smile appeared on his face as he also transmitted friendly feelings back to it with his spiritual power.

"Hello, are you Tang Wulin's descendant?" A pleasant female voice rang out, and Tang Wulin was quite startled to hear it.

"Hello, I didn't think you could speak," Tang Wulin communicated using his spiritual power.

"Of course I can! Isn't it normal for 100,000-year-old soul beasts to be able to speak the human language?" 

The Demon Spirit Great White Shark's voice was very playful.

"You know my father?" Tang Wulin asked in an elated manner.

"Tang San is your father?" the Demon Spirit Great White Shark asked in response.

Tang Wulin nodded in confirmation. "That's right! He's my father."

The Demon Spirit Great White Shark circled around him one more time and transmitted an even more friendly aura toward him. "I met your father once. It was him who helped us Demon Spirit Great White Sharks drive back those bloodthirsty killers, and it's fantastic to be meeting his son now. The Evil Spirit Orcas have attacked us again, so please help us force them back. The Evil Spirit Orca King has already eaten many of my sisters, waaah!"

She suddenly began to cry as she spoke, and Tang Wulin was left feeling rather speechless.

Wasn't she a little too humanized? However, seeing as this was a trial, he naturally had to accompany her to the enemies.
