Chapter 2204 The Infernal Dragon Power Combines With the Infernal Dragon’s Soul, The Dragon Soul World Collapses
In the Dragon Soul World, Chu Kuangren looked at the Infernal Dragon's soul and was determined to get it.
His instincts told him it was an Opportunity of Fortune no weaker than the Dragonslayer.
He leaped forward in a flash, traveling as fast as he could. Although he did not specialize in speed, he was still an all-rounded cultivator, and his speed greatly surpassed that of his peers.
"Dragon Soaring Heavens!"
"Whoosh!"
Chu Kuangren even used some sort of speed-enhancing dragon cultivation technique.
He channeled the dragon qi around him into a dragon apparition that boosted his speed.
The other dragons were puzzled as they watched it unfold.
"Isn't the Dragon Soaring Heavens an advanced technique of the Dragon Tribe? Why does he know how to use it? It also seems like he's very proficient at it."
"Damn it. This guy seems more familiar with the dragon cultivation techniques than us."
Chu Kuangren was too weird.
He held too many mysteries, making it hard for people to see through him.
Enhanced by the dragon cultivation technique, Chu Kuangren caught up with the Infernal Dragon soul in no time. As he reached his hand out, his dragon qi erupted, forming a giant dragon's hand.
"Now, come over here."
Just as Chu Kuangren's dragon hand was about to grab the Infernal Dragon soul, the dragon soul's eyes released a mysterious energy that carried an indifferentness but almightiness to it.
In just a split second, a peculiar energy field of a radius of several meters formed around that dragon soul.
Chu Kuangren's dragon hand stopped moving the moment it entered that energy field.
"This is…"
Chu Kuangren's gaze narrowed.
He was no stranger to spatial freezing techniques like that as he could do it with his spatial energy.
However, because he possessed the Void Sky Seal, he was very familiar with spatial techniques. That allowed him to instantly identify that the Infernal Dragon was not using a spatial technique.
Instead, it was using an even more mysterious energy.
It was…
"Time energy!"
That dragon soul did not freeze space but time itself!
After the dragon's soul halted time, it escaped from Chu Kuangren's dragon hand. Chu Kuangren unleashed his dragon qi again but was met with the same time-stopping technique.
As long as he got near it, the dragon soul would halt time and then escape.
"Ha! How interesting." Chu Kuangren chuckled.
According to legends, it would be day when the Infernal Dragon opened its eyes and night when it closed its eyes, thus making it the ruler of time.
'It looks like the legends are true.'
However, neither his nor Huang Jiulong's Infernal Dragon power contained any ability similar to that. It meant he had not fully mastered the Infernal Dragon's true power.
Now, that power had appeared on the Infernal Dragon's soul before him, and it made Chu Kuangren want it more.
"You might be able to control time, but I can control… the space itself!"
Seeing that the Infernal Dragon's soul was about to escape, Chu Kuangren's gaze narrowed, and he took out the Timespace Treasure. In an instant, the power of that item spread forward, sealing off the surrounding space and time.
The Infernal Dragon soul roared when it sensed a threat.
Its time energy spread forward, clashing against the Timespace Treasure's power.
"Your resistance is futile!"
That Infernal Dragon soul's power was incomplete.
Similar to the other dragon souls, it was only a remnant soul. Under the power of Chu Kuangren's Timespace Treasure, it was eventually suppressed.
"Roar!"
The Infernal Dragon's soul roared with fury. Its roar reverberated throughout the soul world.
It was trying to make a final struggle.
"If that's the case, I shall make you submit!"
Chu Kuangren rose into the air, releasing waves of Destiny Great Dao aura from his body. Soon, a white pair of gates appeared in the void.
It was the Destiny's Gate from the Great Destiny Technique!
Under the suppression of Destiny's Gate, the Infernal Dragon soul was suppressed.
"Hm?" Chu Kuangren hummed lightly.
He noticed that the power of Destiny's Gate could not affect the Infernal Dragon soul's destiny. One could only imagine how priceless and noble its destiny was.
Even for the ordinary Infernal Dragons, only a handful would possess such a level of destiny, and only one Infernal Dragon in the entire Infiniverse would possess such a highly noble destiny.
"It looks like it's really the Primal Infernal Dragon's remnant soul!" Chu Kuangren exclaimed with shock.
However, he wondered why the Primal Infernal Dragon would leave behind a remnant soul in the Dragon Soul World. Did that mean it was dead?
No. Beings like it were incredibly ancient and nearly immortal.
Chu Kuangren did not think any further.
Although his Destiny's Gate could not suppress the Primal Infernal Dragon soul, the power contained within it that stemmed from the destinies of all beings was immense. Hence, its suppressing power was unfathomable.
Moreover, the Timespace Treasure's power was weighing upon it too.
With the help of those two energies, the dragon soul was suppressed until it was immobilized.
Chu Kuangren immediately dashed forward and reached out to grab it.
The instant he made contact with the dragon soul, his Infernal Dragon energy reacted by erupting uncontrollably.
The Infernal Dragon's power and the Infernal Dragon's soul instantly merged.
With a whoosh, it returned inside Chu Kuangren's body.
"What…"
Chu Kuangren could sense the Infernal Dragon energy inside his body. It was deep in his Great Dao's sea of qi, currently undergoing some sort of evolution.
He could only know what changes it had undergone after the evolution process was complete.
"The Infernal Dragon soul has merged with the Infernal Dragon energy. And having devoured millions of dragon souls and obtained the Dragonslayer, I can say that this visit to the Dragon Tomb is finally complete."
Chu Kuangren let out a satisfied smile after thinking through what he had gained on the trip.
Suddenly, the Dragon Soul World started trembling.
Gigantic cracks began to appear in the void.
Many dragon souls flew into the cracks, leaving the Dragon Soul World. Many dragons who saw it could not help but panic.
"W-What is happening?"
"The Dragon Soul World is about to crumble. What happened?"
"It's him. It must be because of him."
The dragons looked at Chu Kuangren.
After all, he was the one who caused the greatest commotion in the Dragon Soul World. Since the dragons already had a grudge against him, it was no surprise that they all placed the blame on him.
"Hmph. What does it have to do with me?" Chu Kuangren snorted.
'So what if I absorbed a few dragon souls and killed a few dragons? Do I deserve to be blamed for everything just because of that?'
He wanted to know why the Dragon Soul World was starting to collapse too.
"Master, that Infernal Dragon soul is the core of this Dragon Soul World. Since you have taken the core, this Dragon Soul World will cease to exist soon." Lil Ai's voice sounded.
Chu Kuangren froze for a while after learning that. "Wait, is it really because of me?"
"Yup."
"Ahem, well… What's so special about a lousy Dragon Soul World anyway? Just let it collapse." Chu Kuangren cleared his throat and did not seem bothered by it.
Then, he dashed to Shang Honghua, Long Shuijing, and the others, saying, "The Dragon Soul World is about to disappear. Let's leave quickly."
Everyone was afraid to linger any longer, so they quickly left the place with Chu Kuangren.
The space within the Dragon Soul World began to collapse behind him, and giant cracks started spreading in the void like a spiderweb.
Soon, a terrifying spatial hurricane swept across the land, causing the ground to shake.
The hurricane silently wiped out some of the dragon souls.
As the Dragon Soul World crumbled, countless dragon souls flew out and scattered all over the Dragon Tombs.
The crumbling Dragon Soul World did not matter to the dragon souls as long as the Dragon Tombs still existed.
Instead of being in the Dragon Soul World, they would be in the Dragon Tombs.
"But without the Dragon Soul World's protection, these dragon souls will die much faster now," Chu Kuangren thought.
Nothing could last forever, and the same could be said for the dragon souls.
Previously, the Dragon Soul World possessed some sort of effect that could prolong the duration of the dragon souls before they dissipated into nothingness. With the Dragon Soul World gone, those dragon souls would perish much faster.
However, there were countless dragons in the Infiniverse. As long as the dragons did not go completely extinct, the number of dragon corpses and souls would only increase in the Dragon Tombs.
