First a hand, then half a body, and finally the whole person passed through the light curtain, a layer of red light obscuring Chen Yuan's vision.

Under this red light, even Spiritual Power could not detect anything; all that returned to the mind was blankness.

When the light faded, Chen Yuan had left the scorching Yang Spring and was now exposed to the azure sky, sitting on the very light barrier he had just been on.

On the other side was the path I had come from. The space itself seemed to have been reversed, with no sense of weightlessness or being suspended upside down in the air.

The light curtain beneath them shone with a restrained intensity, appearing to be merely a layer of red mirror, without affecting the brightness of the space in the slightest.

Upon closer inspection, the air here was incredibly fresh, and the concentration of Heaven and Earth Origin Power was unlike anything Chen Yuan had ever seen before. Moreover, it contained absolutely no other attributes; it was entirely fire-attribute.

This place is simply a paradise for fire-attribute Soul Master! Any fire-attribute Soul Master who cultivates here will have a cultivation speed that is unmatched by their Soul Master.

Moreover, although this place is filled with fire-attribute Heaven and Earth Origin Power, it is not hot at all. On the contrary, it gives Chen Yuan an extremely warm feeling, which is very comfortable. Staying here for a while makes him feel that all the fatigue in his body has been swept away.

After getting up, Chen Yuan discovered that his Spiritual Power was completely ineffective here. No matter how he probed, the images transmitted back were all a blank white space.

Helpless, after withdrawing his Spiritual Power, Chen Yuan's Sea of Consciousness stirred, Dali Gu appeared beside Chen Yuan.

Upon arriving here, Dali Gu curiously looked around.

This place is boundless; I never imagined that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well would be like this. It's practically a Microcosm.

"Xiao Yuan, there's something Gulu over there!"

Pointing in a direction, Dali Gu excitedly told Chen Yuan about his discovery, sniffing and Dali Gu dripping from the corner of his mouth.

"It Gulu so good!"

"Alright, wipe your drool. Since there's something over there, let's go take a look."

After wiping Dali Gu's mouth with a tissue from his Soul Tool, Chen Yuan scooped Dali Gu into his arms and flew in the direction Dali Gu was pointing.

The only thing that could make Dali Gu react here is the corpse of the Fire Dragon King. Just fly in the direction it points.

In this magical space, Chen Yuan didn't even need to actively absorb it; the Heaven and Earth Origin Power would naturally approach Chen Yuan, and in the time it took to breathe, Chen Yuan could replenish all the Soul Power he had consumed.

Thanks to this, Chen Yuan quickly replenished the Soul Power he had consumed during his descent, and was able to use the Galloping Pegasus Domain to travel long distances at high speeds.

This space seemed boundless. After flying for nearly six hours, Chen Yuan still hadn't seen the fragrant thing that Dali Gu had pointed out.

There was no other way but to rest where we were and continue our journey after Awakening.

"Dali Gu, how did you manage to smell the fragrance from so far away?"

"I don't know, it's just a very special feeling, Gulu. Anyway, Xiao Yuan, just fly quickly."

After flying for almost another full day, a dark shadow appeared on the horizon in the distance.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yuan was overjoyed. After flying for so long, no matter how beautiful the scenery was or how rich the Heaven and Earth Origin Power was, facing the same scenery and the same horizon all the time, Chen Yuan's mood inevitably became somewhat irritable.

Finally, he saw something beyond the horizon. Overjoyed, Chen Yuan poured all his Soul Power into the Galloping Pegasus Domain, and his speed suddenly increased, drawing a striking trajectory in the air.

The shadow gradually grew larger, until a strikingly large body came into view.

The dragon's body stretched for an unknown length, its scales, interwoven with crimson gold and deep red, each as large as a millstone, radiating an unparalleled, dazzling light.

The dragon's body, covered in scales, has clearly defined muscles, and its enormous head stands majestically like a mountain, with its eyes tightly closed.

There wasn't a single trace of peeling or decay on its body; on the contrary, it looked as smooth and new as ever.

The body was neither shriveled nor rotten; the enormous corpse of the Fire Dragon King was curled up, as if this were its lair, and it had simply fallen into a long slumber.

Flying high in the sky, Chen Yuan looked down at the enormous body with a solemn expression. He believed that if it weren't for the huge claw marks on the dragon's body, the dragon king would probably still be alive.

"As expected of a former God-King Level powerhouse, even after so many years of death, his body has not decayed."

"Dali Gu, is this the scent you're talking about?"

"Yes, that's it, it's making Gulu."

Upon arriving at the corpse of the Fire Dragon King, Chen Yuan could sense that all the energy in this space emanated from this corpse.

Only after standing on the Dragon King's corpse did Chen Yuan notice that there seemed to be a colossal creature in the distance, just like the Fire Dragon King beneath his feet.

However, the air there was filled with cold air, and from such a distance, Chen Yuan couldn't see it clearly at all. He would probably have to get closer to see the dragon corpse's exact appearance.

That must be the Ice Dragon King over there, right?

Chen Yuan had initially thought the two dragon king corpses were piled together, but now it seemed that their bodies were distinctly separated, just like the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The energy that escaped simply formed a treasure land like the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, proving that the two Dragon Kings were indeed worthy of being among the Nine Great Dragon Kings in their lifetimes.

Unfortunately, these Nine Great Dragon Kings were eventually reduced to a pulp, and two of them even developed serious brain problems.

The two Dragon Kings, Light and Darkness, actually killed the Water Dragon King, and then both of them committed suicide in the end—can you believe it?

Although it's unknown whether the Fire Dragon King and the Water Dragon King are a couple, the Light and Dark Dragon King are definitely a married couple and have a child named Di Tian.

After the Dragon God's Rebellion ended, the surviving Light and Dark Dragon King surprisingly committed suicide together in a tragic love story?

No, you all survived, so why would you commit suicide? What kind of love story are you following? Just to give Di Tian a tragic backstory?

Moreover, it seems that even the Silver Dragon King is unaware of what exactly happened to the Dragon God.

All I can say is that the later settings are far too abstract.

Upon reaching the head of the Fire Dragon King, Chen Yuan seemed to sense a trace of the Fire Dragon King's resentment.

It was killed by the dragon Dragon God in its previous life because it tried to stop the Dragon God from going mad.

"Chen Yuan, is this the Venerable Lord?"

Infernal Delicate Apricot and translucent body appeared beside Chen Yuan, looking at the dragon corpse with awe.

If it weren't for the divine power that overflowed after the Fire Dragon King's death, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well would not have been formed, and the Infernal Delicate Apricot would not have been born.

In a way, it was indeed the Fire Dragon King in front of them who gave the Infernal Delicate Apricot life.

"Yes, this is the Fire Dragon King."

With his palm pressed against the Fire Dragon King's scales, streams of primordial Heaven and Earth Origin Power were gathered together by his Soul Aperture and then injected into the Fire Dragon King's corpse through Chen Yuan's hand.

However, the moment Chen Yuan injected a fraction of the Heaven and Earth Origin Power, it would dissipate from the Fire Dragon King's body the next second, without being able to stay.

"Is that not allowed?"

Chen Yuan had no idea how those immortal Immortal Herb in Douluo III awakened the Dragon Soul of the two dragon kings.

But this means that the Fire Dragon King's Dragon Soul must still be there. As long as the Dragon Soul is still there, everything is fine.

Within Chen Yuan's Sea of Consciousness resides an expert on the soul.

Electrolux's illusory figure appeared, and he looked at the dragon corpse with great interest. In his world, pure-blooded Dragon Clan were not very common.

However, strange beasts like chimeras can still be found.

In Electrolux's eyes, the dragon corpse before him was a treasure from head to toe, capable of being used to forge a considerable amount of equipment. In fact, if he had enough other materials, he could start forging it right now.

Who knows, you might just be able to conjure up a Divine Artifact on the spot.

"Old Yi, this is the Fire Dragon King. We'll have to rely on you regarding its soul. Do you have a way to awaken its Dragon Soul?"

"It's hard to say. After all, it was a true God Level powerhouse in its lifetime, while I am merely someone who could become a god."

How can one undergo transformation without first becoming a god?

Fortunately, Electrolux's main abilities lie in the realm of souls, so dealing with a dead Dragon Soul like this shouldn't be too much of a problem.

When it comes to becoming a god, Electrolux feels utterly speechless.

In his original world, he already possessed the potential to become a god, but due to the rules of that world, becoming a god was not much different from being dead, so he never became a god.

However, in this world where becoming a god allows one to retain their consciousness and life, achieving true immortality, Electrolux no longer has a physical body, and the foundation for becoming a god is gone.

As he examined the dragon corpse, Electrolux grew increasingly satisfied. However, when Electrolux gaze fell upon the head of the Fire Dragon King below, he frowned.

The resentment of this dragon corpse seems quite strong. Even though it was powerful in life, its Dragon Soul has not dissipated to this day. But in this dazed and confused state, it would be better if it were just dead.

Electrolux waved his arm, and a familiar staff appeared, with layers of six-pointed stars forming beneath his feet.

The surrounding space shattered, and thick, transparent chains appeared out of thin air, passing through the six-pointed star array set up by Electrolux and entering the dragon corpse of the Fire Dragon King.

The chain merged into the Fire Dragon King's body without any hindrance, continuously exploring downwards at such a speed that it seemed to encounter no resistance Sisi, as if the Fire Dragon King's corpse were nothing more than air.

After about two or three minutes, the downward-exploring chain began to move violently, constantly changing direction, as if it were chasing something.

Electrolux swung his staff, and the chains suddenly sped up, one of the chains quickly taut, followed by a clanging sound.

Judging from the looks of it, they've caught their prey, but the prey is quite strong and is struggling constantly.

Bass!

"You're nothing but a vile creature that's been dead for who knows how many years. If you were still alive, I'd still respect you, but now that you're dead, before the Scourge of the Undead, you're nothing more than an ant that I can crush with a flick of my wrist."

Countless chains Entangle and continuously retracted, and fiery red light pierced through the corpse of the Fire Dragon King. Finally, with a soft "poof," a phantom Dragon Soul, about three or four meters in size, was pulled out.

This Dragon Soul looked almost exactly like the Fire Dragon King beneath their feet, except that it was many times smaller and only had a head.

Perhaps compared to other Soul Beast and creatures, this Dragon Soul is already incredibly large, but compared to the corpse of the Fire Dragon King, this Dragon Soul is pitifully small.

"Roar--!"

As soon as it appeared, this Dragon Soul bared its teeth. If this Fire Dragon King had possessed any profound Dragon Soul techniques in its lifetime, perhaps it would have used them now?

Electrolux muttered incantations, his illusory hand emitting a dazzling light as he stroked the Dragon Soul.

"How pitiful and pathetic! The proud Dragon King has turned into this beast! Let me help you regain your wisdom!"

A dazzling white light erupted from the point where Electrolux and the Dragon Soul made contact, forcing Chen Yuan, Dali Gu, and Infernal Delicate Apricot to defend themselves.

This is a radiance of the soul; physical defenses are completely useless. Fortunately, Chen Yuan's first condensed Mental Attribute Soul Aperture, otherwise the three of them would have truly had no way to avoid it.

After the dazzling light faded, the clanging and rattling of the chains, which sounded like they were about to break your teeth, disappeared.

At this moment, the Dragon Soul, whose eyes were blood red, lost all its malevolent aura, and its pupils, as bright as magma, lit up.

Without a sound or movement, the Fire Dragon King's Dragon Soul simply watched the people and beasts before him.

"Thanks."

A deep voice rang out, and the former dragon king of the Dragon Clan immediately expressed his sincere gratitude to Electrolux.

"Thank you for awakening my soul, human powerhouse. Tell me your name; you are my eternal benefactor."

"Holy Necromancer, Scourge of the Undead, Electrolux."

"Holy Necromancer? When did such a god exist in the Divine Realm? Was it after my fall?"

"No, I come from another world, and I am just a human who does not want to become a god."

"Unwilling to become a god? Electrolux, could you tell me your story in the final moments of my life?"

The Fire Dragon King was filled with curiosity about this human who was unwilling to become a god, since resurrection was basically impossible anyway, as the Dragon Clan had been almost completely slaughtered by the Dragon God himself.

Why should a Dragon Soul that's about to dissipate care about so much? It's better to quickly satisfy its curiosity.

Hearing stories of powerful beings from another world at the very end of one's life is a very good ending.

Chen Yuan was surprised that the Fire Dragon King was so calm; he had originally thought that it would be cursing the Dragon God after regaining its senses.
