Immediately, a red-hot feeling that was hard to describe started spreading throughout Zhou Weiqing’s entire body in an instant. At that moment he felt as though the Saint Energy within his body, as well as his soul, was boiling. However, it was not agonizing. Instead, it elicited a strong comfortable and warm feeling. It was as though his entire body was submerged within a hot spring - the pores all over his body had opened up, avariciously absorbing the energy that made him feel extremely comfortable.
A gentle light appeared within the Dragon Emperor’s eyes. He slowly closed his eyes; the last thing he wanted to do before he left was to pray. He wanted to pray for the success of the seal, and that all his efforts had not gone to waste.
The red ball of light that he had just released was the original Dragon Phoenix Energy. Similar to the Lord of the Nether’s original Destructive Energy, it was his most basic and purest energy.
Even though the Dragon Emperor was a Max Level Heavenly God powerhouse himself, and hence was unable to be on par with the Lord of the Nether, who was at the Heavenly Change Stage, the might of his Dragon Emperor’s original energy was rather intimidating.
If he had a choice, without any hesitation, the Dragon Emperor would have chosen to channel that energy to his successor, the next Dragon Emperor, Hui Yao.
If that was the case, within ten years at most, Hui Yao would be able to possess the same powerful cultivation base as he did in his prime.
However, presently, the Dragon Emperor did not have a choice. The person who replaced him as the core of the seal of the Netherworld was not Hui Yao, but Zhou Weiqing. In order to allow Zhou Weiqing to be able to activate the entire formation, he had no choice but to channel his Dragon Emperor’s original energy into Zhou Weiqing’s body. Only by doing so would the formation then be able to be activated without the possibility of any rejection.
Chapter 304 - Zhou Weiqing, the Core of the Seal! (3)
Bit by bit, the Dragon Emperor’s original energy penetrated Zhou Weiqing’s Saint God Core Nucleus. A layer of faint red light could clearly be seen appearing gradually on the surface of Zhou Weiqing’s Saint God Core Nucleus. At this moment, the little Zhou Weiqing, who was sitting upright and still, opened his eyes. His eyes had completely turned into a shade of fire red. A small scarlet dragon coiled around his body, slowly and comfortably, while the ball of red light gradually disappeared.
Slowly, a layer of red misty luster appeared on Zhou Weiqing’s ‘Hate Ground no Handle’ Set. The layer of luster was unable to conceal the armor’s original white hue. Nonetheless, the layer of red light was shimmering quietly like gemstones.
Following the appearance of the layer of red light the seal’s formation below completely lit up. The red dense light gradually floated upwards, enveloping the entire formation within it.
At this moment, Zhou Weiqing experienced a different feeling. He realized that it was as though his body had already become a part of the formation. To put it more accurately, the entire formation seemed like his body, and he, himself, was the heart of the body.
Without any hesitation, Zhou Weiqing immediately released his will outwards. At this moment, he was still able to remain calm - he did not attempt to establish a connection with all ten Divine Beasts. Instead, he released three streaks of will and tried to connect with three of them instead.
It was completely logical of Zhou Weiqing to do that. Even though everything happened within a short period of time, he realized, from the process of connecting his will to Hui Yao and Duo Si’s wills, that after merging his will with the Divine Beasts’ wills, he was able to use it for his own use. Under such circumstances, his own will would be rapidly amplified. More importantly, it would result in a better understanding towards the seal’s formation, after the connection had been established.
Hence, if he were to connect with too many Divine Beasts, two problems would surface - firstly, the Divine Beasts definitely did not trust him as much as they trusted the Dragon Emperor; it was uncertain whether or not he could perfectly establish a connection with them, or even establish a connection at all in the first place. Secondly, what was more important was the issue pertaining to his understanding of the seal. If he were to merge his will with too many wills at the same time, his own will would get amplified to a terrifying degree; it would be very difficult for Zhou Weiqing to adapt. Furthermore, at a crucial moment as such, how was it possible for him to conscientiously understand the marvel of the seal’s formation?
Hence, he decided to only connect his will with three Divine Beasts this time.
Just as he had predicted, a problem emerged instantly after he attempted to connect their wills with his. The three great Divine Beasts’ wills experimentally attempted to accept Zhou Weiqing’s will, unlike Hui Yao and Duo Si’s wills, which directly connected with Zhou Weiqing’s will. After all, they were unfamiliar with Zhou Weiqing and also, they did not possess the dragon monarch bloodline.
Zhou Weiqing released his will. At this moment, he did not hold back at all - he had thoroughly opened up his heart to these Divine Beasts. Under a condition as such, if the other party were to attack him his will would definitely be severely damaged. However, he had no other options. That was the only way for these Divine Beasts to trust him within the shortest possible time.
The Dragon Emperor’s original energy had completely entered Zhou Weiqing’s body. With the help of Saint Energy, the dragon aura released from his body became even stronger than that of Hui Yao and Duo Si’s. After sensing his dragon aura, coupled with the unrestrained release of his will, the three Divine Beasts only hesitated for a brief moment before opening up their wills and connected them to Zhou Weiqing’s.
Bam——
In an instant, Zhou Weiqing felt as though everything in his immediate surroundings had exploded - everything became crystal clear. It seemed as though they had entered a brand new realm. Every single energy element was presented in an extremely clear manner in his will.
The formation below him started to surge violently; an extremely massive amount of energy started charging towards its center. Zhou Weiqing could clearly sense the Dragon Emperor’s blood, which had tainted the entire formation, flowing within every single veined pattern on it. Gentle energy ripples began to release outwards as a result, and a powerful suppressive force started to appear as well. The realm outside the formation seemed to have completely been shattered, causing it to be isolated from the outside world.
All of a sudden, his will was strengthened. Being able to sense minute energy changes as such within an area that was filled with extremely complicated energy was an addictive feeling.
If he were in the outside world, Zhou Weiqing would similarly be able to clearly sense every single energy change. However, within the cave, there were more than ten Heavenly God powerhouses, not forgetting the Lord of the Nether who was of the Heavenly Change Stage.
Even though the Lord of the Nether did not actually break the seal and that his cultivation base was constantly being suppressed, the purity of his Destructive Energy was at the Heavenly Change Stage! With huge amounts of massive resilient energy squeezed and condensed together, the will of a Heavenly Emperor would be instantly destroyed, even if only a small amount was released. However, as for Zhou Weiqing, he could sense all the energy changes within the formation at this moment, showing just how powerful his current will was.
Moreover, at this moment, Zhou Weiqing had an epiphany - he had finally understood how the Dragon Emperor was able to suppress the Lord of the Nether.
