Douluo Dalu 3: The Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 1810: Ling Zichen's excitement

"They did it! They are the heroes of humanity!" Chen Xinjie proclaimed with tightly clenched fists. 

He was currently recalling what Long Yeyue had said to him prior to his departure from Shrek Academy, and his heart was filled with radiant passion and hope.

Everything seemed to be progressing in a positive direction.

All of a sudden, something seemed to have occurred to Yu Guanzhi, and he yelled, "Huanyun, Huanyun!"

Zhang Huanyun was also in the main control center, and he was just as ecstatic as everyone else.

He had spent the majority of his life fighting against the abyssal plane, but never had he witnessed so many abyssal creatures being wiped out at once.

"I'm here, Commander," Zhang Huanyun said as he arrived beside Yu Guanzhi before extending a military salute.

"The rest is up to you now, Old Man Zhang. Once we force the abyssal army into retreat, set up the Blood God Array right away to seal the passageway; we can't give them any chance to come out again."At this point, Yu Guanzhi had regained some of his composure.

The initial objective for the battle had been successfully achieved, and now, it was time to seal the abyssal passageway and permanently keep the abyssal creatures out of this world.

He didn't know how much damage that attack from Eternal Heaven had caused to the Holy Spirit Cult, but the best-case scenario would obviously be the death of all of the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters.

"Rest assured, we've already made the preparations. Once the abyssal creatures are cleared away, we'll be able to begin setting up the Blood God Array immediately. As for the resources required, we'll require your assistance for that."

"We'll do everything in our power to cooperate with you!" Yu Guanzhi replied without any hesitation.

Zhang Huanyun smiled, as did Yu Guanzhi, and both of them felt as if a massive weight had been lifted from their shoulders.

At this moment, a silver figure appeared on the battlefield, flying directly toward the abyssal passageway as a streak of silver light.

The storm of artillery fire didn't slow her down in the slightest as she was always able to accurately evade the artillery shells that were on course to strike her, as if she could see into the future.

In the next instant, she plunged headfirst into the artillery fire and straight toward the vast cloud of abyssal energy in the distance.

This silver figure was naturally none other than Gu Yuena.

Her Silver Dragon Spear was glowing with dazzling light, and all of the shockwaves from the explosions were being kept at bay by the rainbow energy around her body.

There was no better time than now to devour abyssal energy. So many abyssal creatures had been killed, among which many were extremely powerful, creating an enormous amount of abyssal energy to be devoured.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Yuena approached the epicenter of the explosion, she clearly felt her Silver Dragon Spear become scorching hot, and a tremendous rush of energy entered her body in a frenzy.

However, she didn't pay any heed to all of this as there was one question in her mind: why wasn't he here?

Surely he wouldn't miss out on such a fantastic opportunity!

With Tang Wulin's power and ability to grasp opportunities, Gu Yuena was confident that Tang Wulin wouldn't miss something like this.

That attack from Eternal Heaven had killed countless abyssal creatures, and there was no lack of abyssal emperors and sovereigns among them, so there was no better opportunity than this one.

As for the storm of artillery fire, that wouldn't pose any threat to his four-word battle armor.

Beneath the secondary tree of life, the visor of the pink mecha was slowly lifted, revealing Ling Zichen's pale face.

She was currently completely paralyzed, by the excitement in her eyes was clear to see.

Tang Wulin heaved a long sigh of relief upon seeing this, and he asked in an urgent manner, "How are you feeling?"

Ling Zichen's voice was slightly feeble and hoarse as she asked, "Did we succeed? Did we manage to destroy the Blood River Godslayer Array?"

Tang Wulin hurriedly nodded in response. "We did, so rest easy. On top of that, a massive number of abyssal creatures were killed. We succeeded. No, you succeeded."

A wide smile appeared on Ling Zichen's face. "We really did it! And I didn't die! I thought I was dead for sure. I had at least 30 broken bones in my body, and I thought I was done for, but it's all worth it. Also, even more importantly, I was able to verify one of my hypotheses. I really didn't want to admit it, but it looks like I have no choice now."

"Don't talk; conserve your energy and rest. With Mother here, you won't be able to die even if you wanted to," Tang Wulin said.

Ling Zichen shook her head as she withdrew her divine-grade mecha amid a flash of pink light, then raised a hand, only for it to fall back down in a limp manner.

"Wulin, please keep a record of what I'm about to say next. I don't know if I'll be able to live until the end of this battle, and I just had an extremely important epiphany that needs to be recorded in text and sent back to the Tang Sect headquarters. This is going to be an invaluable treasure for our Tang Sect, and through it, I can see the future."

"The future?" Cao Dezhi asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Ling Zichen's eyes immediately lit up, and in that instant, it was as if she had turned into someone else, as if those injuries on her body didn't even exist.

Yali hurriedly increased the rate of injection of holy energy into her body, fearing that she was experiencing terminal lucidity.

With her support and the constant injection of life energy from the secondary tree of life, Ling Zichen was immediately reinvigorated. "I fused Eternal Heaven with my mecha as I wanted to conduct a very important experiment, one that can only be conducted by me. I've already sent the records of the experiment back to the Tang Sect, and all highly authorized members will be able to view it. Back when I first began studying Eternal Heaven, I quickly discovered that it was a very intriguing creation due to its structure.

"I discovered that Eternal Heaven is indeed comprised of source positive circulation cores. This is something that I've been constantly researching. I am also able to create source positive circulation cores, and they're even better than the source positive circulation cores made during the era of Eternal Heaven's creation. However, I'm able to control one core easily and install several cores into a soul tool, but I've always been stumped by the problem of how to create synergy between cores, thereby resulting in an effect that's superior to the sum of the constituent parts.

"This is definitely possible for Source positive circulation cores, but whenever I've tried it, I've almost always been met by a huge explosion. However, the more it exploded, the more I was convinced that I was going in the right direction. If we can harness and control this power and prevent it from exploding, we'd be able to create even more powerful soul tools! I was convinced that this was correct, and I've always been working toward this goal. However, my research wasn't able to yield a satisfactory answer; I was unable to fuse the cores.

"I've already been able to fuse several source positive circulation cores on an elementary level to generate a slight qualitative change, but that was it. Everything changed when I got my hands on Eternal Heaven. Eternal Heaven is truly a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, and the most important inspiration it provided me with was related to the fusion of source positive circulation cores. Do you know what I saw when I removed the shell of the missile? I saw a huge number of source positive circulation cores interconnected with one another, synergizing with one another, and the system could be activated at any moment to generate a terrifying qualitative change.

"Once this qualitative change took place, all of the cores would explode in unison to devastating effect. So how were these cores connected? They were connected through meridians!
