The Legend of the Dragon King Chapter 1823 - Body Forging

Chapter 1823: Body Forging

It was a sublime feeling. Although he only felt it a little, his body naturally craved for it when he got a taste of the transcendence.

He finally realized why every Limit Douluo had such an intense yearning for the Divine Realm. Perhaps, they, too, had this feeling. It was especially true for the quasi god-ranked Limit Douluos, such as Qiangu Dongfeng and the Boundless Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie.

It was precisely this uplifting feeling that allowed them to comprehend even more entities and the other world. That world was extremely attractive to all soul masters.

Tang Wulin intended to explore that rank in the future, as it was only by achieving that rank that he would be able to look for his family members. He wanted to look for his parents and sister!

A Limit Douluo has reached the limit with a foothold already in the god rank. According to ancient records, it was possible for a person to ascend to the Divine Realm with a gods approval to inherit the Godhood position. Naturally, the person would need to pass the Godhood examination first.

On the other hand, the Sea Gods Trident examination that Tang Wulin was undergoing currently appeared to be a similar examination.

According to the Tang Sects historical records, the Sea God Tang Sect and also Tang Wulins biological father completed his examination in a place known as the Sea Gods Island. There was no detailed record as to how he achieved Godhood. However, all the available records stated that Tang Sans breakthrough to Godhood was related to a fortuitous opportunity on the Sea Gods Island.

If that was the case, since his father could do it, could he not do it as well?

At the thought of this, Tang Wulin was even more eager to take the Sea Gods Ninth Examination. If he could pass all the Sea Gods Trident examination and had the fortuitous opportunity to achieve Godhood, it would certainly be awesome beyond a doubt. By then, there was no need for him to worry about fighting against the abyssal plane or anything else. Furthermore, he could begin to look for the Divine Realm too.

Tang Wulin felt clear-headed and light-bodied upon having this realization. It was precisely then that Tang Wulin felt a painful sensation in his body which jolted him from his thoughts.

He raised his head and looked up. Before he could clearly see, he felt a stream of painful sensations radiating from his body. He then saw spurts of water in the form of arrows shooting wildly toward his body. The pain was actually caused by these water arrows.

Tang Wulin was speechless. Whats happening here? How does the sea water change its form? Father, what sort of examination are you giving me?

Although he pondered over this in his mind, he noticed that the smashing force was growing stronger. In addition, Tang Wulin was shocked to find the water arrows were aiming for his acupoints with exceptional force.

Despite his Leakproof Golden Body, his entire body suffered searing pain from the continuous bashing. Later, he found it ticklish.

It turned out the ticklish sensation was more unpleasant than pain. Tang Wulin was initially confident of surviving this round with ease. Yet, he now felt the dread of the Sea Gods Nine Examinations once again.

Individually, the water arrows were not threatening to Tang Wulin at all. It was their massive numbers! They showed no signs of slowing down at all. The clothes on his body had vanished completely since earlier. In fact, red spots appeared on his skin from the impact of the arrows.

Should I use the Dragon Air to resist it?

It was the first idea that came into Tang Wulins mind. Had it not been his intentional control, the Dragon Air would have been unleashed earlier.

However, he dropped the idea. The reason was simple since this was the Sea Gods Nine Examinations.

Tang Wulin believed that his father would never do something for no apparent reason. Since his father chose to use such methods to test his body, it meant that the wave-crashing technique was beneficial to his body, just like the Body Sects Body Forging Technique in the past.

Hence, Tang Wulin was not furious. On the contrary, he was joyous after recovering from the temporary shock caused by the agonizing pain. He immediately suppressed his Golden Dragon Kings bloodline aura and power of the Dragon Core fully so that they would not interfere with his body from enduring the smashing force.

In reality, the most terrifying part of achieving the Leakproof Golden Body was not the pain, but the lack of it.

Based on Tang Wulins experience, the lack of pain during the training and tempering of his body signified that his body could not improve further.

A Ruhengs had already reached his limit in achieving the Leakproof Golden Body. This was also the limitation of the Body Sect. He could possibly advance another step only if he achieved breakthrough to Godhood and received nourishment from the immortal energy.

Tang Wulin held the same belief initially that this was his limit as well. Yet, he felt pain at this precise moment despite his Leakproof Golden Body. It signified there was still room for his body to elevate! What else could be more exciting than this?

Tang Wulins most important objective of taking the Sea Gods Nine Examinations was to elevate his cultivation base and improve himself so he could possess even more powerful abilities! Meanwhile, he learned that he was actively engaging in his elevation at this exact moment.

He was rather disappointed by the pain he felt which was a cinch in the fourth examination. Yet, the disappointment began to turn into anticipation at this very moment.

The crashing force grew more and more ferocious with each passing moment. Moreover, the waves underwent a multitude of changes. They were akin to heavy hammers which pounded incessantly, spears which came stabbing, and water blades which cut ferociously. Violent, ravaging forces were produced with each transformation.

Tang Wulin endured and resisted the brutal forces over and over again. His body changed ever so slightly following each impact.

He went from feeling intense pain to ticklish caresses, then to total numbness.

The pain he felt on the outside of his body did not affect the feeling inside. Every part of his body was stimulated. His body gradually transformed including his bloodlines, meridians, and internal organs even.

Although the pain was agonizing, his state of mind remained calm because of his strong willpower. The bloodlines inside his body began circulating on its own and helped reduce the pain endured by his body.

In the meantime, his body was akin to a piece of rare metal while the waves were akin to the forging hammers which he used. These forging hammers were melding and forming his body continuously to elevate his cultivation base.

As the minutes went by, Tang Wulins body endured the excruciating pain while his spirit rejoiced and continued to adjust his form continuously. Even though he could not move, he struggled to twist and turn his body with great effort. It let him use all sides of his body to endure the smashing force. At the same time, it gave him great pleasure to be able to do that.

Time did not figure during the Sea Gods Nine Examinations. His body went from feeling intense pain to numbness repeatedly over countless cycles.

Any ordinary person in his place would have died innumerable times, yet he took it in his stride. His body began to show minute changes as he continued to endure the process.

With the waves constantly crashing against him, his spiritual consciousness gradually fused into every part of his body. If he could mobilize his spiritual consciousness in its entirety or in a part of his body, he could then begin by changing a single strand of his hair following the fusion of his near Divine Origin-ranked spiritual power.

Such minute changes allowed him to fully master the control over every single part of his body.

All this while, inside the silver dragon scale suspended over his neck, the Ice God Pearl emitted a cool, refreshing aura which nourished his spiritual power naturally. Thus, it was not only his body enduring the forging process, but his spirit as well.

His spiritual rank was already very close to the peak of the Spirit Domain. Nevertheless, he needed to accumulate his experiences more than anything else at present.
