Douluo Dalu 3: The Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 1807: You Are the Pride of the Tang Sect

"What's up? Why aren't you saying anything?" Ling Zichen asked with a smile.

"Zichen, you've sacrificed too much," Tang Wulin sighed.

Ling Zichen's smile suddenly vanished upon hearing this. Tang Wulin couldn't see her face behind her mecha's visor, but he could sense the shift in her emotions.

"You must think I'm a monster, right? Some kind of madwoman?" Ling Zichen said in a cold voice.

Tang Wulin shook his head in response. "Not at all; I've never thought of you that way. In my heart, you're a scientist who's worthy of respect. You've given so much for your pursuit, and you're the pride of the entire Tang Sect."

"But I'm also a woman, and I also desire what normal women want! Even though I only think of those desires very occasionally, I'm still a woman!"

She suddenly began to choke up with sobs, and her drastic mood swings left Tang Wulin at a complete loss for what to do.

All of a sudden, Ling Zichen screamed, "Prepare to fire the Eternal Heaven cannon! Tang Wulin, stabilize the battery!"

Tang Wulin's heart jolted upon hearing this, and specks of golden light quickly appeared over his body as he donned his four-word battle armor.

At the same time, his battle armor transitioned into a liquid state and connected itself securely with Ling Zichen's mecha. He was holding Ling Zichen from behind, and at this moment, it was as if the two of them had completely fused as one.

The silver cannon barrel was slowly aimed toward the purplish-black light barrier in the distance, and in that instant, it was as if the very air had solidified.

The slowly advancing Blood River Godslayer Array was a harbinger of doom for the entire human race.

Ling Zichen pursed her lips tightly to forcibly hold back her own tears, and specks of light appeared all over her body as one source positive circulation core lit up after another, generating an enormous amount of power.

A series of halos lit up on her mecha's chest. Those were a string of source positive circulation cores, and they were connected in a brilliant configuration, releasing an unprecedentedly fearsome aura.

Even though Tang Wulin had donned his suit of battle armor, his flesh still immediately began to crawl in the instant that those source positive circulation cores were ignited. His entire body began to tremble, and his heart was filled with an indescribable sensation that was a mixture of fear, excitement, anticipation, and above all else, determination.

They had to destroy the enemy here in the northernmost region at all costs. They couldn't allow the abyssal army to progress further inland.

Inside the Blood River Godslayer Array.

One figure after another was emerging incessantly from the abyssal passageway to join the abyssal army, and all of them were top-tier beings of the abyssal realm.

Following the completion of the Blood River Godslayer Array, the abyssal plane was protected by the array, thereby shielded from the restrictive power of the Douluo Plane.

Countless powerful beings were rushing out of the abyssal plane, appraising everything outside of the Blood River Godslayer Array with greedy eyes, awaiting the moment that they could run rampant in this exuberant plane.

This world was going to act as a stepping stone for them on the way to godhood, and they could even sense the abundant life energy within the planet beneath their feet.

This was energy that they had been dreaming of for countless years!

The Spirit Sovereign hovered in mid-air directly above the center of the abyssal army with his hands behind his back, and he closed his eyes as he savored the moment.

In the distance, the ravaged defensive line of the Western Legion was already visible. The Blood River Godslayer Array was capable of eroding all things, and as soon as it bypassed this defensive line, the abyssal army would be released to all corners of the world to deliver the purest life energy back to the abyssal plane.

Right at this moment, an indescribable sense of horror suddenly welled up in the Spirit Sovereign's heart.

His spiritual power had already reached the Divine Origin realm, so he could immediately sense any threat to his wellbeing.

He instantly raised his head and cast his gaze toward a certain direction. There, in the pitch-black night, a tiny speck of light was visible in the distance.

It was none other than this diminutive speck of light that was striking horror deep into his heart.

What was that thing?

In the next instant, all of the quasigod level beings in the Blood River Godslayer Array also raised their heads and turned their attention toward the same direction with stunned expressions.

No one knew what the speck of light was, but all of them could sense a terrifying aura, as if the sky were about to fall on their heads.

"It's Eternal Heaven! We have to intercept it and keep it away from the array!" Ghost Emperor exclaimed.

The Holy Spirit Cult was naturally aware of Eternal Heaven's existence. The Shrek City bombing had been conducted using two godslayer missiles, and as one of the main perpetrators, Ghost Emperor could never forget that doomsday-like scene.

However, even those two missiles completely paled in comparison with Eternal Heaven. This was a legendary weapon of the federation!

The spies of the Holy Spirit Cult hadn't informed Ghost Emperor that Eternal Heaven had fallen into the hands of the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, so he was completely caught off guard by this development.

"Get Demon Sovereign to open the array right away and release us!" the Spirit Sovereign yelled.

Not only was the Blood River Godslayer Array capable of keeping out all attacks, it also trapped everything inside unless the overseer opened the array.

Ghost Emperor immediately released his spiritual power to get into contact with Demon Sovereign deep within the abyssal passageway.

At this moment, the woman that was bathed in purplish-golden light and situated on the giant altar opened her eyes. Standing beside her was another woman with shoulder-length hair, and her face was very pale as she stood on the spot with a listless expression.

"Eternal Heaven? So what?" Demon Sovereign mused in a cold voice.

The young woman beside her shuddered, and implored, "Please stop this, Mother; I beg of you. Do you really want to see the entire continent be destroyed by the abyssal creatures? We can't do this! This world nurtured us and gave us everything; you can't allow your hatred and desire to avenge Father blind you!"

"Shut up!" Demon Sovereign slapped the young woman across the face, knocking her onto the ground. "If it weren't for that person you let go, everything would be progressing even more smoothly. All humans must die to atone for your father's death; so what if the continent goes down with them? We'll be ascending to another world anyway. Only by becoming a god will there be a chance for me to find your father again; only a god can attain the ability to create life."

Blood was trickling out of the corner of the young woman's lips as she laid on the ground, but her eyes were filled with determination. "But so many people have already died in your quest to attain godhood. We aren't humans, but humans are still living beings. So many of them have perished for your quest for revenge; you're going to be punished by the heavens for this!"

"Hahahaha! Why wasn't your father's killer punished by the heavens? So what if the heavens decide to punish me? The planar ruler of the Douluo Continent has no physical form; once I become a god, the planar ruler may even be at my mercy! So what if they're deploying Eternal Heaven? Let them do whatever they want Hahahahahaha!"

Deranged laughter echoed throughout the abyssal passageway.

At the same time, Demon Sovereign swept her right hand through the air, and a string of runes lit up, following which an opening appeared on the Blood River Godslayer Array.
