Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 187: Sharing The Pain

Mu Xi didn't wake up until a few hours passed. After she had woken up, she thanked Tang Wulin before going back to working on the battle armors.

Tang Wulin didn't say anything but did he plan to check on her every three days to make sure she doesn't do this again. And with that, a few days passed by since he returned.

As Tang Wulin was meditating on the Sea God Island, around an area with some flowering trees and a bunch of grass. He felt his spiritual sense fluctuating, as he felt two presences behind him, causing him to open his eyes and look behind.

"Hey, Wulin. It looks like you already came back."Said Yue Zhengyu with a dazzling smile.

"Hey." Said Dai Yun'er who was next to Yue Zhengyu, to the surprise of Tang Wulin.

"You guys traveled with each other?" Questioned Tang Wulin as he didn't think they had much reason for going anyplace with each other.

"Yea, she wanted to tag along with me as I was going back home to do my baptism. It's difficult being this handsome and loved." Said Yue Zhengyu in an arrogant tone and a bit of narcissism.

"Oh shut up you! I just didn't want to stay here all alone and be bored." Said Dai Yun'er with a roll of her eyes.

"Hence, why you chose to follow the handsome me." Said Yue Zhengyu with a nod of his head causing Dai Yun'er to give him a pitying look.

"You were my sole option. Everyone else already left or was doing something important." Said Dai Yun'er lightly, causing Yue Zhengyu to falter a bit.

"Be that as it may be, you still came to me." Said Yue Zhengyu causing Tang Wulin and Dai Yun'er lips to twitch.

"Anyway, the journey towards my clan was far...Far from safe." Said Yue Zhengyu with a sigh.

Yue Zhengyu started to retell his and Dai Yun'er journey. They had to take a soul train as it would take too long to walk there and too much energy to fly over there.

Wulin was surprised that those things were back up but Yue Zhengyu told him surprisingly they were one of the first things that was rebuilt.

But as the train was moving towards the city of Ember Ross, which was the place that he and Dai Yun'er plan to get off from. The train was hijacked by a group of Evil Soul Masters, who was able to easily kill the guards and began to threaten the driver of the train.

There were only seven of them, with the weakest of the bunch being a rank 50 Soul Kings, while the strongest was a Soul Douluo.

"Did you find out why they were hijacking the train?" Questioned Tang Wulin with a raised brow.

"Not really. We only were able to find out that they wanted to abduct the people on board from the weakest one after we capture him. It seems even he, didn't know why they were being ordered to capture the people onboard." Said Yue Zhengyu with a shake of his head.

"What else happens?" Questioned Tang Wulin after a bit.

Yue Zhengyu went on to talk about his fight with all of them. He was able to fight all of the Evil Spirit Master with Dai Yun'er giving him support. They were doing well, as his martial soul was the perfect counter to the strength of the Evil Soul Masters and with them gaining the edge.

They made sure to push away the Evil Soul Masters from the soul train, incase the straying attacks accidentally hit the train. Luckily for both of them, Yue Zhengyu's light element was forcing the Evil Soul Masters into a corner.

Of course, that didn't lose long enough as the Evil Soul Masters seems to have already called in reinforcement long before they invaded the train.

"I didn't think they would call in Evil Soul Masters who also had Battle Armor and with higher cultivation. Especially for a train that was filled with only mortals."Said Yue Zhengyu with a sigh as he doubted they knew him and Dai Yun'er was on the train.

Yue Zhengyu was unfortunately severely injured after getting overwhelmed by the vast amount of reinforcement.

"It' was only because of Dai Yun'er, that we were able to survive." Said Yue Zhengyu with a sigh, while also lamenting his stinging defeat.

If it wasn't for Dai Yun'er employing the Tang Sect hidden weapons and using her mental attack of the Spirit Eye, they would have most likely died. Her tactics were able to buy them time, to escape using the forest that was nearby and dodging the pursuit.

"How did you guys escape?" Questioned Tang Wulin after understanding they were being pursed fiercely by the Evil Soul Master.

"About that..." Mutter Dai Yun'er with a slight laugh while looking away, causing Tang Wulin to raise a brow.

They told him, they were able to find a mysterious cave around one of the unexplored mountain valleys in the regions. They stayed there for a bit, while also watching out for any Evil Soul Masters but to their surprise, they couldn't sense them or locate them.

"The Region was pretty strange. It was as if a person's spiritual sense was being blocked." Said Yue Zhengyu

They told him, that not even they could spread out their spiritual sense. It was only after a few hours that the Evil Spirit Master left.

"We were going to leave, but Yun'er founded a hidden passage inside of the cave." Said Yue Zhengyu with a smile causing Tang Wulin lips to twitch.

'...Don't tell me.'

They told him, they were able to find an inheritance inside of the cave. It wasn't much but a place filled with heavenly treasures and a pond filled with spiritual water.

"So you all found a hidden cave filled with spiritual fruits and treasure?" Questioned Tang Wulin in a bit of disbelief.

Just how lucky were these two? While they weren't as lucky as Xu Xiaoyan, it was still nonetheless amazing that they were able to find such a place filled with treasures.

"Their fate shines bright." Yggdrasil's voice rang out causing Tang Wulin to inwardly blink and questioned her on what she means.

"I'm sure you understand what fate was? The inevitable and unavoidable that will happen and always happened through the universe. " Said Ygddrasil causing Tang Wulin to inwardly nod his head,

"It was through fate, that they were lucky enough to find those heavenly treasure, just like it was fate that Xu Xiaoyan was able to meet Orion. Everything and everyone has a pre-distance fate, with some being greater than others." Said Yggdrasil.

'...Say, could you also see someone's fate?' Thought Tang Wulin after a bit of thinking.

He knew that Yggdrasil had the power to pierce through time and allow a person to go in the past and future. To do something like that, it would make sense for her to be able to perceive the future, present, and past.

But could it be, that she could also see the fate of the world? As it has seemed ever since he met her, she has always been able to know and grasp many things.

"Yes, back when I was at the highest of my power. I could see and understand the threads of fate throughout the universe." Said Yggdrasil causing Tang Wulin eyes to slightly widen.

'How far can you see? And did you see mine?' Thought Tang Wulin towards Yggdrasil.

'I can see to the end of the universe. And as for you...It's a secret!" Said Yggdrasil with a smile causing Tang Wulin brows to twitch.

Before he could question her more, he was brought out of his thoughts by the voice of Yue Zhengyu.

"Can you do me a favor, Wulin?" Questioned Yue Zhengyu while looking uncomfortable and a slight frown on his face.

"Which is?"

"Can you apply that time thing you did to us back on Tenrou to Dai Yun'er?" Questioned Yue Zhengyu with his expression being serious.

His word shocked both Dai Yun'er and even Tang Wulin slightly. As to Tang Wulin, Yue Zhengyu should know the hellish amount of pain.

One had to go through with Power Release.

"You mean the technique I used on you all" Questioned Tang Wulin as he wanted to make sure Yue Zhengyu wasn't thinking of anything else.

"Yes." Said Yue Zhengyu causing Tang Wulin to chuckle before glancing at Dai Yun'er and causing her to flinch.

"The chance of her surviving the ordeal and process is very low, lower than even twenty percent." Said Tang Wulin causing Yue Zhengyu and Dai Yun'er's eyes to widen.

"Why is that Wulin? I know we were able to survive-"

"That is because your body was exercised and fully nurtured with pain. From the time you all started to train with me, to your other types of training over the year I went missing to the rings you have. Your body was gradually developing into something abnormal." Said Tang Wulin causing Yue Zhengyu to furrow his brows.

Even those with weaker talents like Xie Xie was able to survive because he could handle the pain. Dai Yun'er, on the other hand, hasn't been through hell training.

"But I have been training h-"

"I noticed. While you have been training her, you only did it for a month at the most. That can't compare to you guys, who have been breaking and rebuilding your body for years. Especially since she has twin martial souls." Said Tang Wulin interrupting Yue Zhengyu.

"What is wrong with me having a twin martial soul?" Questioned Dai Yun'er.

"The process of Power Release is quite literally bringing your full potential out. This means both your Spirit Eyes and Hell Civit will be forcibly drawn out. Unless you can find someone to hel-"

"Help her how?" Questioned Yue Zhengyu with his eyes slightly narrowed.

"...If she can find someone to share the pain with her. Then she can succeed." Said Tang Wulin causing Yue Zhengyu eyes to flash.

"I will help share her pain." Said Yue Zhengyu causing Dai Yun'er's eyes to widen in shock and disbelief from the words of Yue Zhengyu.

From what she has understood so far, the process of Power Release was something unimaginable painful, that cause even Yue Zhengyu to shiver in fear of. Yet to her shock, he still wanted to help her go through this process by sharing her pain.

She couldn't fathom why he would go so far for her?

"Why? Why would you go so far for her?" Questioned Tang Wulin with a raised brow.

"Haha. The same reason why you are willing to put us through hell and go so far for us. Besides, she has saved my life twice."Said Yue Zhengyu with a ligth laugh causing Tang Wulin and Dai Yun'er to be surprised.

Even now, Yue Zhengyu knew he was willing to die for Dai Yun'er, just like how he was willing for his other friends. Of course, he rather avoids the whole dying process and will actively try for another method, he wasn't suicidal after all.

"Huh? When did I save your life twice? Never mind that; you don't have to do this." Said Dai Yun'er as she tries to get Yue Zhengyu to back out. But Yue Zhengyu stubbornly refuses her and tells her, its either both of them or none at all.

'Such drama queens.' Thought Tang Wulin with a roll of his eyes before reluctantly conceding as he saw how Yue Zhengyu was acting.

They all went towards one of the privet rooms on the Sea God Island, that wasn't being watched or monitored. In here he had Yue Zhengyu and Dai Yun'er stand in the middle, while glances at them.

"You do understand what is going to happen right? You will be experiencing half of her pain and will be enduring that hell, once again. Not only that but it will only be half effective, with it affecting only one of her martial spirits." Said Tang Wulin

Power Release wasn't something one could easily cheat. As the pain one goes through isn't just simple pain but the full awakening of their martial spirit. The pain that one experience is the soul power and spiritual power that is slowly expanding.

Yet to his amusement, he saw Yue Zhengyu, not shying away but glowing with evident determination. He glances at Dai Yun'er and saw she was still confused and surprised by Yue Zhengyu's actions.

But after seeing the determination in Yue Zhengyuu eyes, she could only sigh before also nodding her head seriously. Yue Zhengyu smiled at Dai Yun'er's actions before turning towards Wulin and nodding they were ready.

'Well, as long as they don't die.' Thought Tang Wulin with a shake of his head before instantly thrusting out his hands.

As his hand touched both of their stomach red lines began to spread all across their body from top to bottom. This also hid Dai Yun'er's face that was turning red from the hand that was touching her stomach.

Instantly, they both drop to the floor and began screaming out in pain. They all were slowly moving their limbs as if it was being restricted.

Tang Wulin took one more glance at them before leaving behind a Life Lacrima and locking the room. Zeref, Yggdrasil and Sleipnir appeared next to him with a raised brow.

But he said nothing, as he didn't feel like explaining why he left a Life Lacrima behind.
