Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 413: Broken Path

As Tang Wulin finished devouring Zeref, he fell silent.

Even as he felt a boundless amount of energy rushing eagerly through his body, pouring into his realm core and other cores.

Even as he felt it rushing into his sea of spirit, amplifying it even further.

He didn't show any reaction, no sign of joy or exhilaration, only pain. He felt it; the weight in his stomach was heavy, the pain in his heart was sharp.

It didn't take long for him to realize why.

The truth of the matter was before he didn't really imagine the future without Zeref next to him.

The Zeref that has been around him for so many years. The one who has been with him through all of the challenges and events on Douluo, that same Zeref was gone.

In all honesty, he felt Zeref was similar to his spirit soul. Someone that would be with him forever until the day he met his end.

A life-long partner in his present journey.

"... You are too much Zeref. Well, I hope you enjoy your rest, until the next time we meet."

Tang Wulin had released a sigh before he moved towards Mavis's body that was still encased in the purple crystal.

Grasping the crystal, he began devouring it.

As he was devouring it, chomping on the crystal, he felt a stream of energy rushing into his body.

Not only that but his eyes started to glow as a scene flashed before him.

He saw them both a barefooted girl and a jet-black boy laughing joyfully, Mavis and Zeref.

Both of them were embracing each other, hand in hand as they tread a path of gold. He couldn't tell where they were going, but he knew it didn't matter because they had each other.

And that wall, that mattered.

"Rest well you two..."

In the next moment, Zeref and Mavis glance back at Tang Wulin as he whispers those words. They smiled at him while uttering the words thank you before they continue on their journey.

Together forever, at long last, deep within the heart of fairies.

A beautiful end to the fairy tale that spans hundreds of years.

'But mine isn't done quite yet... Is it Zeref?'

Within a few seconds, Tang Wulin had finished absorbing Fairy Heart but he knew it wasn't done fusing with him yet.

Zeref's source and Mavis were taking time to fully connect. But he had more than enough energy to take the next step.

"Yggdrasil."

"Yes, it's time... To construct a God Realm."

Yggdrasil's expression was severe, her eyes were shining with a terrifying light. Both are useless at being unable to identify another solution for the Tang Wulin path to reach Typhoon level.

And also rage at Typhoon, wishing to slaughter him in the next instant.

Clasping her hands together, tendrils began to pour out of her as it began to wrap around Tang Wulin figure.

"Remember once you succeed, the Universal Law will descend down on you. With all of its wrath..."

"I know, there is no turning back after this... Don't worry."

After hearing the conviction in Tang Wulin words, Yggdrasil didn't say anything more, completely trusting in her soul master.

"Start now!"

In the next instant, Tang Wulin's whole figure was covered with multi-colored vines that overflowed with Immortal Qi.

Then, he began attacking the next step, wishing to evolve his Semi-Divine Realm into a God Realm and surpass all those before him.

Inside the tendrils of vines, his entire body erupted with Immortal Qi and blood as he started evolving his body.

For him to take the next step, he needed fusing the Immortal Qi fully into his realm and utilize it to expand his realm.

Which wasn't an easy task by any means. Any mistake or failure would lead to him perishing miserably before the Universal Law got a chance to end him.

In a way, he had to merge everything inside of him and then elevate it to the next dimension.

Tang Wulin's body had countless spots of light that were all beginning to shine as endless chains made out of immortal qi began to appear.

They were densely packed, swirling around Tang Wulin before rushing into his body, piercing his skin and into his bone.

The chains also punctured his organs as well, alongside his core and sea of spirit. They weren't just amplifying his body but also beginning to try and merge the various parts to form a true realm.

The chains of light were on the path to become one with him.

The whole around Tang Wulin began to tremble uncontrollably and shake. It was as if heaven and earth were splitting apart.

This world trembled, the corrupted qi began to rage around, spreading and sweeping through the whole area.

Before it started rushing towards Tang Wulin area as if it was reacting to Tang Wulin terrifying transformations.

Tang Wulin observed these changes as well, feeling a massive amount of qi rushing towards him. But he didn't mind this phenomenon at all as he began to smile and open his mouth.

And started to inhale.

The raging sea of corrupted immortal qi that was sweeping past began to tremble. Next, it began rushing towards the tendril of vines, seeping into them and Tang Wulin mouth.

Even though Qi around was corrupted qi, it was still Immortal Qi, nonetheless. He just needed the purification process to Yggdrasil, while he just continued absorbing this Qi.

The Fairy Heart was still taking time to fuse, so Tang Wulin opted to use the devour qi around to help push his breakthrough even more.

While the energy isn't anywhere close to Fairy Heart, it was around a God Realm level of energy.

Still, irregular events continued to happen around Tang Wulin. It was fortunate Tang Wulin was breaking through in a desolate world and not the Douluo Planet.

Or else it might have produced a grave disaster that would have wiped out the land he was on, affecting even the world.

Around Tang Wulin, immortal qi was rushing out streak after streak, shattering the space around him and streaking through the void.

While waves of it began surging like a sea, sweeping through the area, demolishing everything around it. None of the collapsed building was saved, even the violent storms and waves were being blasted apart.

The world continued to shake, the purple lights that were shining above were trembling as space continued to split asunder.

If one didn't know any better, it felt like the whole world was going to be destroyed. Yet one could sense the feeling of creation within the waves of Immortal Qi.

That was spreading out like ripples after the destruction came, mending everything that was broken or split before.

If that wasn't enough, the qi would begin to nurture everything around.

Amplifying the collapsed building, blooming life into the ruined plains, and purifying the corrupted immortal qi.

This truly was a bizarre phenomenon, as a cycle of destruction and creation swept through the whole world.

Displaying the unique forms of creation and destruction!

Inside of Tang Wulin, he felt the spaces inside of him growing and expanding. It was as if he was melting the higher-dimensional spaces and then having them merge into his body.

As they merged into his body, they began absorbing the lower-dimensional spaces into them. He felt the infinite amount of 4-dimensional and 3rd-dimensional space rushing into the higher-space.

This scene was too unusual.

These changes were enough to shock anyone who could witness them. Tang Wulin could feel himself devouring more and more higher-dimensional spaces, leading to his realm growing bigger and bigger.

It got to the point that Tang Wulin's body began to give off a dazzling light, brilliantly illuminating all things in this dark and ruined world.

The chains that were made out of immortal qi were gradually bringing his sea of spirit and body together.

Yet this wasn't easy, his glittering sea of spirit and realm core was struggling against the merge. But Tang Wulin only gritted his teeth as he continued forcing it, while even more higher-dimensional spaces started to get absorbed.

In the next instant, Tang Wulin was able to forcibly merge them, leading to his body to tremble.

As these two were trying to resist and clashed with each other. But he simply began to rigorously suppress them both with his will, forcing the fusion even more.

While his realm continued to grow, surpassing the limits of a Semi-Divine plane.

But it was then the realm shooked even more before nine-colored clouds began to appear all around in the sky.

"Did it know you were here? And waited for when you were close?"

Yggdrasil's voice rang out with shock and disbelief, pondering how the Universal Law was able to find them.

Tang Wulin hasn't even completed his ascension yet!

"Well I expected this much; it's fine."

A piercing golden light burst out of the tendril of vines, which was blasted apart!

Tang Wulin glared at the crackling nine-colored clouds that were summoning everything possible.

From divine weapons made out of frequent lightning, to extraordinary figures from different eras! He saw mythical creatures, dragons, kirins, qilins, tigers, etc, all of them numbered over trillions.

Streaks of nine-colored lightning could be seen flashing through the clouds, all of them containing the power to annihilate a universe.

Tang Wulin tensed his body as felt his instincts and fortune sense screaming at him.

In the instant, the Universal Law took action.

Countless divine blades erupted with a dazzling nine-colored streak as they all hacked down!

Nine-colored blades radiance sweeping out.

Tang Wulin sensed the terrifying energy, all of them were enough to wipe out countless universes in a flash!

They cleaved through space, appearing right in front of Tang Wulin and wishing to squash him under their might!

Yet Tang Wulin only scoffed, he could sense these blades were only at the Third Class level, his fist blasted out.

Smashing them all into pieces before he rushed upwards, wishing to commit to annihilate dangers above him.

The nine-colored clouds trembled uncontrollably and shook as if it was questioning Tang Wulin.

"Yes, I dare to rebel."

One of the generals that were made out of lightning released a roar as they seized one of the divine weapons.

Tang Wulin instantly felt God-King energy from the blade, realizing it was an Ultra Divine weapon and the general was also a God-King.

The general said nothing as he hacked out with the blade, everything was split asunder by the blade radiance as it descended.

The energy contained enough power to destroy whole dimensions and multiverses! Tang Wulin roared out as his figure erupted with energy, even as he was still in the middle of undergoing his breakthrough.

He blasted out with his fist which clashed with blade radiance!

The blade radiance scattered through the whole world, wrecking everything it touched! The buildings were collapsing, space was shattering and black-holes were starting forming.

The clashes were simply too terrifying, any being not at the God-King realm would have their bodies and soul erased from their world.

Yet Tang Wulin continued rushing upwards, just as even more divine weapons, creatures, and lightning descended on him.

The scene here was too terrifying.

A tiger made out of nine-colored lightning lunged at Tang Wulin while an ax swept towards from the side. A relentless sea of lightning poured down on him and a dragon exhaled a stream of lightning that rushed forward.

All of them were at the Peak of the God-King Realm!

Unleashing their full power, to erase Tang Wulin from this world and never allow him to appear ever again.

Their attack shattered the space, obliterating the blackness which has the void as a glittering expanse of nine-colored formed around him.

But Tang Wulin simply took action!

His figure erupted with a murderous and divine madness colored aura that turned everything crimson as the presence of destruction could be felt.

While he clenched his fist before blasting out as True Destruction bloomed and erupted out.

Rushing out like waves, it struck the tiger that was lunging at him, shattering half of its body with no struggle.

Nine-colored wisp scattered around while the other half was devoured by the True Destruction as it continued sweeping out.

It clashed with the expanse of lightning, smashing into it and devouring its essence. As this happened, he felt himself grow even stronger as his Inferno Kill worked its magic as everything he destroyed empowered him.

Yet at the same time, Tang Wulin's body trembled.

He felt the higher-dimensional spaces release a shockwave that swept through his whole internal bodies.

But if that wasn't enough, another series of shockwaves rushed through his body. Tang Wulin spat out a splash of blood as he felt visible cracks appearing all around his body and his insides.

These cracks were leaking out immortal qi, that began to leak out while he smashed apart the long dragon and the divine ax.

This was not a good sign; all of it stemmed from Tang Wulin forcing his breakthrough while he resisted the Universal Law.

But if this continued, then Tang Wulin's whole body might lead to him perishing before the Universal Law does it.

Yet this didn't mean he could stop, as the Universal Law also noticed his condition.

Leading to even more attacks to rain down on him, as well as those legendary figures.
