Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 183: Diving

'How strange.'

Was the thought of Tang Wulin as he found himself being bathed in a world of multicolored lights.

Yet in actuality, these were not just lights that were produced and exerting from the world but the natural laws around.

He knew at the moment. He was only in the starting stage.

He needed to make contact with nature around him. He had to get them to be able to hear him, while also having them understand him.

He must make a connection with the world around him. He must become a part of nature, the law, and the world.

Sleipnir and Yggdrasil informed him. It would be an arduous and painstaking path that most would give up at the start.

What type of path was this exactly?

"To become one with them..." Mutter Tang Wulin with a sigh as he slowly began to sit down in the world of dazzling light.

He was in a world that was blank, with nothing around except for the sky above him with the sun shining brilliantly. Tang Wulin began inhaling before exhaling and then he slowly begins to listen.

A few hours passed but nothing happens. He heard nothing, felt nothing and saw nothing. Yet he didn't get frustrated or irritated, as he was already informed by Sleipnir and Yggdrasil.

That the key to this was nothing but effort and patience.

And so, he kept on talking and trying to connect with them. He continued sending out his spiritual sense throughout the blank world.

He did this a hundred times, which turned into a thousand and kept on going up from there. He didn't know how much time was passing by and he didn't care.

As he kept on going, he began to hear and feel wisps of life pass by his spiritual sense. He tried latching on to them, but they always fade away before his spiritual sense could reach.

Yet he didn't stop but simply continued.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, he began catching the-wisps. And as he caught these wisps, he heard them.

He could hear them.

"Come on! Let's go!"

"Yes! We have been waiting! We have been waiting!"

"Come one! We have to go!"

"Hey! Hey!"

"You Can go further than this! Go On!"

"We believe in you!"

He could the lush grass, plants, flowers, trees, and branches that were around him in the outside world speaking to him.

They were telling him everything, preaching, informing and advising him.

On what exactly?

"For me to grow"

With a big exhale, everything began to change around Tang Wulin. His legs that were in a lotus position began melting down onto the floor before turning into roots that were breaking through the ground.

As his legs were breaking through, the ground around him started transforming into grass patches of land. It was no longer the white blank canvas that was gently spread around him but was now reforming into lush a grassland.

But that was not the end, as the roots began spreading throughout the area and deep down before stopping.

Yet throughout all of this, Tang Wulin did not move, think or speak. He merely sat there patiently as if he was waiting for something.

After a few hours passed, the sky above started to become dark. The clouds began rumbling as they started blocking out the sun before the rain started coming.

As the rain went down like a waterfall, it began soaking and drowning Tang Wulin in its essence as he sat. But it didn't last for long as after a few hours, the clouds went away and then the sun came right back up.

This continuous cycle repeated countless times before another change started to happen. A sacred tree began to sprout up from the ground and rise up from behind Tang Wulin. It was ten meters tall with golden-green leaves and broad branches sticking out of it.

Yet it didn't stop there, as another countless more cycles of rain, the sun, and coolness came through on the towering tree.

As these cycles went passed, leaves began growing on the mystical branches of the tree, with shimmering in a mighty surge of life. Countless tons of fragrant flowers, lush grass, and exotic fruits began growing all around the towering tree.

Alongside this, the area around Tang Wulin started to become overgrown and lush with grass to the point it started to obscure him.

Bits by bits, Tang Wulin's whole body began to be covered and drown out. Similar to moss growing on rocks, Tang Wulin's whole figure became nothing more than an ornament in this extensive forest.

With the rain pouring down on his figure, yet there was still no movement or any sign of him taking action. As if he was nothing but a statue that was crafted in the past and left to decay.

Either the way, the cycle of nature continued as if there was no sign of it stopping and Tang Wulin continued sitting in that same lotus position. More grass began growing to the point that it started covering all over the place.

After a long time as passed, the whole area of where the tall tree was growing was completely reformed and redone as something else took its place.

A massive ancient tree was in the spot of the tall tree before, coiling around it were large multi-colored vines. With the mystical branches, fruits, and leaves all shimmering with a variety of brilliant colors.

With light blue lakes appearing on the side that was glittering and shining from the rosy light that seems to be coming somewhere.

There were a variety of plants and flowers that were sparkling, swaying gently from the small breeze and carrying a faint shimmer of green mist.

Around the massive tree were countless small trees and flowering shrubs around. Similar to the ancient tree in the center of the forest. Next to these small trees, was a human figurine made out of grass and flowers that were sprouting out.

If one was to look at the whole forest, they would be stunned by its auspicious and sacred feeling. Be quelled by its tranquility and breathtaking beauty.

And awed by its other-worldly feeling as if they have transcended past the mortal world and step into a divine realm.

Tang Wulin was slowly beginning to understand nature around him, while also unraveling more of his bloodline. It was a slow process, with him having to increase his direct connection with the plants, grass, and trees around.

Yet it has been a process that was strangely gratifying. As each time he becomes closer and increases his connection, he gains a sense of tranquility.

It was similar to going on a long journey throughout the world or a pilgrimage. Where you constantly begin to learn new things, meet new people and make pleasant memories.

This was what Tang Wulin was doing, as he slowly began to be pulled into these strange dreams. He didn't know if it was caused by nature or the planes itself. But strangely enough, he didn't mind as a small smile bloomed on his face.

Each step he took, the more he begins to understand how different parts of the earth function and worked. As each part of these dreams would have the world preaching and advising him on the secrets of the world.

As each acknowledgment he receives from the world, the more protected he felt. As if there was a whole kingdom centered around him, ready to take on any conflict or foes that wishes to harm.

He could also feel his spiritual sense and body going through some extra changes. His spiritual power was increasing sharply with his senses becoming, even more, sharper and refine.

Tang Wulin's body would also be filled with an astounding amount of energy as he absorbed and refines the life energy around him. With the unleashing of his bloodline, he could feel every inch of his flesh was sparkling with life.

Not only was his flesh full of vigor, but his soul was also flourishing with life energy and was also being strengthened. If one was to look deep within him, they would find a soul that was shining brilliantly with demonic and terrifying features, that wasn't normal.

All of this was making his blood essence surge while also keeping his calm and collected. Tang Wulin felt if there was such a thing as enlightenment in the world, then he was experiencing it at the moment.

A long-time passed before Tang Wulin began opening his eyes. He glances around to see the moon was already up, and it was night time.

"Still far..." Mutter Tang Wulin with a quiet sight before going back into his meditation or was it a dream?

He didn't know for sure as a slight smile once again bloomed on his face.

Deep In a grassy valley that was being overseen by a massive tree that had its branches and leaving glowing with a brilliant light. Sat a young man who has been silently meditating for an unknown amount of time.

He looked similar to a statue that hasn't moved in days. Yet there was nothing covering him except the grass and plants all around as if they were comforting him.

"So my little Tang Tang was here." A familiar voice rang out as a charming figure came walking towards the compact area where Tang Wulin and the Gold Tree was.

Lang Yue was walking forward while humming merrily while carrying a small basket in her hands. One could notice the cheer and upbeatness in her steps as she approached.

As she reached the area, she started glancing around and begin taking note of the lush vegetation around. This place was a shock to her, as she has never seen an area with so much flower, plants, fruits and life before.

Even in the rare forests that weren't destroyed, they still couldn't compare to the area of the Gold Tree. As Lang Yue was making her way towards Tang Wulin, she failed to see or note a huge shadow appearing behind her.

A large snake rose up behind her, causing Lang Yue's eyes to widen from the shadow that began covering her whole figure. Slowly turning her head, she came face to face with a large dragonic snake-like creature.

"Grandma!" Shouted Leviathan with his fierce eyes emitting joy.

"...You are?" Questioned Lang Yue after calming her beating heart while her lips and brow began twitching from the words of Leviathan.

"It's me! Leviathan!"

"...Oh! Look at how much you have grown!"Shouted Lang Yue with an enormous smile before grabbing Leviathan's head and began hugging him.

Although she was a bit shock that the small garden snake that used to crawl all around the house was now so huge. Who would have thought it would grow and evolve into something like this.

"Hehe. It was all because of Dad!" Said Leviathan while swinging his tail from being cuddle by his grandma.

"Oh, grandma! How did you get here? I thought this place was barred off?"Questioned Leviathan after a bit of thinking.

From what he listens to and heard from his father. Only the members of the Sea God Pavillion could come here and even then, it was only after checking with the Pavillion Master.

"Hehe. Nothing can stop me from seeing my adorable son and my grandson." Said Lang Yue with a cheery laugh while easily accepting Leviathan as her grandson.

"Grandma so cool!"

"Indeed." Said Lang Yue with a hand on her face while laughing softly.

Of course, the truth was that Lang Yue abuse her relationship with Na'er, Yali and her recent new friend Long Yeyue to pressure Yun Ming. Who would have thought the divine Sea God Pavillion Master would have cracked after feeling the piercing glare of his wife.

Lang Yue still had to go through arduous screening and checking before she was allowed to go through. Plus Yun Ming forced her to have someone watching her at all times, while she was inside of the Valley.

Lang Yue, of course, accepted this and didn't make things difficult for the Sea God Pavillion Master. As she could somewhat understand and comprehend that Yun Ming was being lenient on her.

As the rule of no one being allowed in but the Sea God Pavillion member was something that has been a rule for thousands of years. Normally, there were no exceptions, not even the Federation President or Spirit Pagoda Master could enter.

Even the Tang Sect Master was not allowed to enter even with their history and relationship. As the Gold Tree was too much of an important existence to be jeopardized.

But Yun Ming made a reluctant exception as this was the mother of the person who was restoring the Gold Tree life force. The deed and merit that her son was doing if one was to measure it, would outweigh any achievement in Shrek.

"Come sit with me, while we wait for Wulin." Said Lang Yue as she sat down in front of her son while bringing the head of Leviathan onto her lap.

Luckily for her, Leviathan was keeping its head slightly above her lap so he doesn't crush her.

While she waited for her son, she began caressing the head of Leviathan who let out an occasional moan of pleasure. As she gazes at her son, she couldn't help but naturally feel at peace with her body and soul relaxing.

As if there were no worries in the world.

"My little grandson. Tell me how my baby boy has been doing." Said Lang Yue with a faint smile as she gazed at Wulin with care.

"Ok, grandma!"
