Thunder Mist Cavern, Dragonbone Abyss...

It should be said that on this day, the entire third-layer secret realm saw that sun hanging in the firmament transform into a vertical pupil, scanning the ground.

It seemed to be searching for something.

The third layer of the secret realm, the True Dragon's Heart.

A behemoth over thirty meters in length was coiled atop the ancient Five-Colored Altar.

One could see its entire body covered in blue-purple scales, with Thunder Runes flashing upon every single scale.

In its form, it bore a seven or eight-tenths resemblance to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul.

Yet in its demeanor and bearing, it was far more transcendent.

This was the form of the Thunder Dragon King, surpassing pure-blood true dragon species like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.

"Do not fear. I sensed the aura of the Dragon King, which is why I summoned you here."

The awakened Thunder Dragon King's Divine Sense looked at Chen Zhuo, a flash of humanized doubt crossing his face.

Then, as if confirming something, the doubt turned into undisguised disappointment.

Chen Zhuo looked at this divine beast before him.

The expression on his face was not fear, but a deep sense of shock.

An expert of this caliber, even though he had fallen countless years ago, still possessed unfathomable divine might in the remnant of a thought.

"Does senior have anything to ask?" Chen Zhuo spoke up.

Aside from the Main God Space will, this was the first divine-level entity he had ever encountered.

"You are extraordinary." The Thunder Dragon King looked at Chen Zhuo.

This was the result he obtained after scanning every living creature in the Thunder Secret Realm and comparing them against Chen Zhuo.

In his era, the beast race was the protagonist.

Creatures like humans were no different from any other mortal beings in the lower realms.

"Let me ask you."

"What year and month is it in the outside world?"

"Is the Dragon God still wielding the Divine Dragon Realm today?"

As soon as the Thunder Dragon King said this, Chen Zhuo roughly knew what era of ancient antique this Dragon King was.

"It is currently Douluo Calendar year 2643."

"As for the Divine Dragon Realm senior speaks of, it ceased to exist long ago following the fall of the Dragon God."

Chen Zhuo very calmly informed the Thunder Dragon King that the former Divine Dragon Realm had evolved into the present Divine Realm.

It was ruled by the five divine kings of Evil, Goodness, Destruction, Life, and Asura.

The Thunder Dragon King instantly flew into a rage.

The entire True Dragon's Heart region plunged into a tempestuous thunderstorm due to his out-of-control emotions.

Soul beasts of fifty thousand years and above trembled, collapsing directly to the ground under this heavenly might, lacking even the courage to flee.

"Junior, tell me, what do you mean by the Dragon God has fallen?"

The dragon head on the altar glared savagely, its five claws clenched in the void as it grabbed a bolt of lightning into its palm.

The Thunder Dragon King instinctively refused to believe this was true.

Yet under the perception of his Divine Origin Realm spiritual power, he detected no sign of Chen Zhuo lying.

As a member of the former Divine Dragon Realm, he knew all too well how strong the Dragon God was.

Each of the Nine Great Dragon Kings was a divine-king-level existence.

Yet even if the Nine Great Dragon Kings joined forces, they could not be match for the Dragon God.

Above the heavens and below the earth, across the universe and beyond, there was no match.

"The Dragon God voluntarily died at the hands of Asura."

"However, the Dragon God mastered the two universal origin god domains of Creation and Destruction, and was inherently an undying and indestructible existence."

Chen Zhuo told this Dragon King the whole story of how the Dragon God used the Asura Demon Sword in Asura's hands to split his own origin, seeking death and falling into slumber.

"Your Majesty!"

The Thunder Dragon King sighed mournfully, dragon tears welling in his eyes.

Back then, civil war erupted in the Divine Dragon Realm, and the Dragon God accidentally killed the crown prince in a frenzy.

The various dragon kings, led by the Nine Great Dragon Kings, also fell one after another in their attempts to stop the half-mad Dragon God.

Ideals lost, father and son turning on each other... Presumably those tragedies became the last straw that crushed this invincible existence.

The Thunder Dragon King let out another long sigh.

Now, he too possessed only a remnant divine sense; apart from entrusting his grief, what more could he do?

"Thank you for telling me this, bloodline descendant of the Golden Dragon King."

"Speak, what do you want?"

With a thought from the Thunder Dragon King, the strongest soul beast overlord of the entire secret realm was summoned to him.

It was a Thunder Dragon Emperor approaching one hundred thousand years.

At a single glance, he figured out the cultivation methods and promotion systems of these human soul masters.

As long as Chen Zhuo nodded.

He would slaughter this Thunder Dragon Emperor, take its soul bone, and present it to the other party.

This could be considered a tiny token of his appreciation.

"There is no need for that, senior is too polite."

To be honest, Chen Zhuo, who already possessed two hundred-thousand-year soul bones, really looked down on a ninety-thousand-year soul bone.

What truly moved his heart was the Thunder Dragon King's divine sense itself.

"Senior, would you be willing to leave with me?"

Chen Zhuo told the Thunder Dragon King that as long as there was an opportunity in the future, he would help him restore his physical body.

Who would have thought the Thunder Dragon King would refuse him on the spot, saying, "My true body and divine soul perished in antiquity."

"Even if you could resurrect me, that existence would not truly be me."

If not for the trace of pure Dragon King bloodline on Chen Zhuo waking him up, perhaps he would have slumbered on forever like this.

"Then senior, might you grant me an inheritance of the Dragon Transformation Method?"

At this moment, the Thunder Dragon King did not yet know that Chen Zhuo had already communicated with the Main God Space will.

He learned that even forcibly collecting this divine sense would not seriously impact the ecology of this secret realm.

Chen Zhuo had already made up his mind that if the Thunder Dragon King refused, he wouldn't mind using some coercive methods.

This Thunder Dragon King had only a divine sense remaining, having long since lost his god domain and divine position, and was no match for the Main God Space will at all.

"That is not difficult."

"However, I only possess the Dragon Transformation Method for thunder-attribute dragon beasts."

"Even if you reach the Dragon King tier through this method, you still cannot compare to orthodox Dragon Kings like the Nine Great Dragon Kings."

Chen Zhuo's eyes lit up; the inheritance of a thunder-type true dragon would do just fine.

The reason why the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul could suppress all beast martial souls under heaven, aside from the dragon might suppression brought by true dragon bloodline.

More importantly, every soul master possessing the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul could gain an additional "Dragon Transformation" body part upon reaching level 30.

Dragon claws, dragon wings, dragon scales, dragon horns... After reaching Titled Douluo, there would be a total of six permanent dragonized body parts.

Transforming from human to dragon...

That is, under a worldview like Douluo; if placed in another different world, the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would probably be unaccepted by the world and branded as heretics.

Yet it was truly powerful.

One dragonized body part would yield one dragonization soul skill.

Excluding soul bones and self-created soul skills, a normal nine-ring soul master had 9 soul skills.

While a nine-ring soul master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan could have 15 soul skills...

Chen Zhuo was very interested in the unique dragonization secret of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul.

He begged an Inheritance Soul Seed from the Thunder Dragon King, vowing to thoroughly research it when he had time in the future.

Meanwhile, deep within the Thunder Mist Cavern.

Ye Lingling watched Meng Yiran, who had been protecting her, absorb a four-thousand-year Coiling Dragon Soul Ring, and she felt utterly numb.

No?

Wasn't the limit age for a soul master absorbing a third ring within two thousand years?

Yu Xiaogang's soul ring limit theory could only fool Tang San who had just stepped out of the novice village.

Soul master aristocratic families like Ye Lingling's did not lack such inherited common sense.

This was data tested through the actual lives of successive soul masters.

Yet what about now?

She witnessed with her own eyes Meng Yiran breaking convention and absorbing a soul ring that even a normal four-ring soul master would only consider.

This delivered a massive shock to her worldview.

The Dragonbone Abyss.

Dugu Yan rode the Red-scaled Flame Python, frantically searching for Chen Zhuo.

She had slain two ten-thousand-year soul beasts when she saw the divine-and-demonic mutation hanging in the firmament.

This left her heart palpitating with anxiety.

Upon returning to the Golden Earth Dragon Nest, she discovered that Chen Zhuo was gone.

"I am right here."

Chen Zhuo directly had the Thunder Dragon King's Divine Sense teleport him right before Dugu Yan.

Seeing Chen Zhuo appear out of thin air before her, Dugu Yan's emotions could no longer hold together.

"Hey, don't cry."

Hustling and bustling, he coaxed Dugu Yan into calming down.

Chen Zhuo patted the head of the Red-Scaled Flame Python, feeding it a top-grade medicinal herb as a toll for these past few days of travel.

Next, it was time to go out and reunite with everyone.
