The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' Remnant Wills, Lin Chen's Negotiation
Lin Chen stared at the corpse of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, his eyes filled with shock.
In the original Douluo novel, the Nine Great Dragon Kings are described as possessing strength comparable to that of God King.
As for why the Nine Great Dragon Kings, despite possessing the power of God King, could still die in past divine wars, according to the original text, it was because the Dragon God went mad and killed all his own teammates.
However, the past is the past, and Lin Chen doesn't care much about it.
After all, regardless of whether the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings was God King or not, with his current strength, he couldn't judge their strength in life based on the corpse of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings in front of him; he could only guess in his heart.
As for safety, he wasn't worried.
After all, he now has Zero backing him up, even if Zero is bound by the rules of the Land of Light and won't interfere in battles between intelligent races within the planet.
However, merely saving his life still put him within Zero's attack range.
How could the remnant souls of two Dragon Kings possibly defeat Zero? Even if the Dragon God himself came, he would be treated like a football by Zero.
Thinking this, Lin Chen stepped out of the passage and came to the corpses of the two dragon kings.
Feeling the rich energy emanating from the two dragons, Lin Chen even felt that his own Soul Power had subtly increased.
He first walked up to the fiery red dragon and examined the Fire Dragon King's corpse.
Soon, he sensed a strange energy fluctuation at the Fire Dragon King's left leg.
A powerful energy fluctuation faintly emanated from the thick dragon leg; the ultimate fire-attribute energy seemed to originate from this dragon leg.
Lin Chen looked at the dragon leg curiously, but apart from being covered with fine, fiery red dragon scales, he couldn't see anything different about it.
"Although it's not obvious, the Fire Dragon King's Soul Bone should be in this dragon's leg." Lin Chen patted the thick dragon leg, feeling the Ultimate Fire energy emanating from it, but frowned slightly.
"But how am I supposed to retrieve the Soul Bone? Although I did come here for the Soul Bone, I'm afraid my current strength is a bit of a stretch."
Lin Chen shook his head. The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings's scales provided an incredibly formidable defense, making it extremely difficult to extract its bones.
Even though the two Dragon Kings had long since died, their corpses had existed for a very long time.
Lin Chen didn't believe he had the ability to break through the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings's scales and flesh, or even extract the Soul Bone within.
Moreover, Lin Chen clearly remembered that the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings in the third part of the original work had a dragon soul. These two dragons still have remnants of their souls remaining in the world. He also came here with the purpose of negotiating with the two dragons.
"Human, the extreme light and spatial aura emanating from you reminds us of those the Light Dragon and the Space Dragons."
Just then, a deep, resounding voice rang out, instantly making Lin Chen fully alert.
The next moment.
Suddenly, two enormous dragon phantoms, one red and one blue, appeared on the corpse.
"You are... the Fire Dragon King and the Ice Dragon King?" Lin Chen narrowed his eyes, feeling a little nervous as he looked at the two dragon kings.
"Human, where do you come from, and why did you awaken us?" The Ice Dragon King looked at Lin Chen indifferently and said in a flat tone.
Lin Chen swallowed hard and said, "My name is Lin Chen. I awakened the two Dragon Kings this time to obtain the Soul Bones left behind by you two predecessors."
The Fire Dragon King, known for his fiery temper, roared angrily, "Humans are indeed all greedy creatures!"
The Ice Dragon King, however, was much calmer. It stopped the Fire Dragon King from attacking Lin Chen and said calmly, "Human, you do not possess dragon blood. So if you intend to take our Soul Bones, you'd better leave now."
Lin Chen shook his head and said, "You two Dragon Kings, please don't be in such a hurry to refuse. Everything can be discussed."
The Fire Dragon King roared, "You're nothing but a weak human! How dare you try to negotiate with us? I'm already being merciful by not killing you, and you still dare to push your luck!"
"It seems that talking normally won't work, but my trump card isn't my own strength."
Seeing the two Dragon Kings' resolute expressions, Lin Chen shook his head helplessly and decided to take a gamble.
Without hesitation, Lin Chen immediately Zero's Eye, his azure eyes instantly focusing on his brow, and a sacred yet chilling aura, unique to Zero, swept across the entire area.
The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings sensed this aura and immediately felt as if they were being suppressed. Although the aura was not particularly strong, it was as if they were facing an opponent they could never defeat in their lifetime.
"Father God? No... this aura is even more powerful than Father God!" The Ice Dragon King sensed this aura and his attitude towards Lin Chen changed instantly. He looked at Lin Chen warily.
"Who are you? What's the deal with this aura emanating from you?" the Ice Dragon King asked, his expression changing drastically.
Sensing the change in the two dragons' attitudes, Lin Chen knew he had made the right bet and immediately smiled, "I've already said, I'm here to negotiate with you."
The Ice Dragon King looked at Lin Chen and said in a deep voice, "How do you plan to negotiate?"
Lin Chen spread his arms and said, "You two dragons are already dead. Now you are nothing more than a remnant of Divine Sense. You are incapable of fighting your Divine Realm back to the Divine Realm, nor can you contend with the five God Kings currently existing there."
"But I'm different. You've all felt it, haven't you? The aura emanating from me far surpasses that of God King. I have the strength to storm the Divine Realm and accomplish what you failed to do in the past."
The Fire Dragon King said warily, "Human, you actually know about the past war between the gods?"
The Ice Dragon King then spoke up, "You mean, you want to fight your way back to the Divine Realm and complete what the Father God was unable to do?"
Lin Chen nodded and said, "That's right. As long as you give me the Soul Bone to help me regain my strength, it's not impossible for me to fight my way back to the Divine Realm."
The Fire Dragon King snorted coldly and said, "How do I know you're telling the truth? What if we give you the Soul Bone and you break your promise?"
Lin Chen casually said, "Believe it or not, you two are dead anyway. Rather than lingering here, you might as well trust me this once."
The Ice Dragon King said coldly, "Humans are indeed cunning. According to you, even if we choose to believe you, we are not guaranteed to receive anything in return. So why should we believe you?"
Lin Chen said helplessly, "So what are you planning to do?"
The Ice Dragon King calmly said, "We can give you the Soul Bone, but our Soul Bone Divine Sense must also be attached to it to prevent you from breaking the agreement."
Lin Chen scratched his chin and said, "That's possible, anyway, I didn't intend to lie to you."
The Fire Dragon King said to the Ice Dragon King, "Are we really going to do this? If we divide our Divine Sense into our Soul Bones, we will truly die."
The Ice Dragon King shook his head. "We were already dead, so what difference would it make if we died again? Do you want to live a life of ignominy, or do you want to fight your way back to the Divine Realm to avenge your father?"
