The images seemed to depict a person digging holes before strenuously carrying massive objects into those holes. Every image was similar, except the colors were slightly different, and each image seemed to have a dragon-shaped projection revolving around it, resonating with the countless dragon projections within the halo down below.
None of the spectators were able to make sense of the images, and even Shrekâs Six Monsters and the friends and teachers who were closest to Tang Wulin had no idea what was happening.
In that instant, Gu Yuena felt as if she and Tang Wulin were the only two people left in the world as only she could tell what he was doing.
An indescribable flurry of emotions welled up in her heart, and she felt as if something had gotten stuck in her throat.
She finally knew what he had been doing during his three-year absence, and she finally understood why she had felt a sense of absolute trust and reliance toward him following his return.
She gritted her teeth tightly to repress her own tears, but her heart had already completely melted into a puddle.
You were right, Na'er; you were always right, and so was I! He did something that we should've done!
At this moment, Tang Wulin himself was also completely perplexed by what was happening around him. All he could sense were countless giant dragons around him, roaring with fondness and longing in their voices.
The bracelet was the present that the giant dragons of the Dragon Valley had given him prior to his departure, but never did he think that it could be activated like this.
At this moment, he could even feel a call from a distant alternate plane, where the dragons of the Dragon Valley were greeting him from afar.
Meanwhile, Qiangu Zhangting suddenly realized that he was unable to bring his Coiling Dragon Staff staff up as he could clearly sense that the staff was trembling, and even the giant white dragon beneath him was also trembling.
How was this possible? The giant dragon around his Coiling Dragon Staff was an Evil Vanquishing Dragon, which was a very special type of dragon that didn't even obey the Dragon God. This type of dragon was born from nature and manifested from the righteous energy of heaven and earth, so it could be argued that it wasn't even a true dragon at all.
Regardless of how powerful its enemy was, the Evil Vanquishing Dragon would always display an unyielding spirit and often allow the wielder of the Coiling Dragon Staff to unleash power beyond their normal capabilities.
The unyielding will in the Unyielding Staff Techniques and even the method to destroy the power of laws had been developed from the research that several generations of Qiangu Family powerful beings had conducted on the Evil Vanquishing Dragons adhered to their Coiling Dragon Staves.
However, at this moment, the Evil Vanquishing Dragon was trembling, and it seemed to be fearful of the domain up ahead. This was something that Qiangu Zhangting had never experienced before, and he hadn't even heard a Coiling Dragon Staff martial soul ever displaying such a reaction in the past.
"Roar!" A deafening dragon's roar rang out, and the mental manifestation around Tang Wulin suddenly fell as a storm of light. In that instant, it was as if countless giant dragons had risen up from the rainbow halo below him to fill the entire competition venue.
The joust for a spouse event was not short on spectacular scenes, but none had been quite as spectacular as this one.
Qiangu Zhangting was devoured, as was the white dragon beneath him. Countless giant dragons were surging through this entire space, letting loose one clear dragon's roar after another.
All of the spectators, even those on the rostrum, had been stunned into complete silence, and many people were even unconsciously holding their breaths as they took in the extraordinary scene unfolding before them.
The rainbow projections gradually faded, as did the rainbow halo beneath Tang Wulin's feet, leaving only Tang Wulin hovering mid-air with a slightly dumbfounded look on his face.
As for Qiangu Zhangting, he had already landed on the ground, and he was still wearing his suit of battle armor, but his Coiling Dragon Staff had changed; the dragon was gone, and it was now just... a bare staff.
A peculiar silence settled over the entire stadium.
Ai Fei's mouth was gaped wide open, and he had no idea how to commentate further on this match.
Meanwhile, Tang Wulin was reminiscing what had just happened. He had clearly sensed that those giant dragons were calling out to him, and he seemed to have grasped onto something, but was unable to truly control it. It seemed that this was something that he could grab ahold of, but having missed that fleeting instant of opportunity, everything quickly disappeared.
Qiangu Zhangting's battle armor domain and the dragon on his Coiling Dragon Staff had both vanished, and Tang Wulin looked down to discover that the rainbow light within the bracelet he was wearing had also disappeared, leaving only a transparent clear crystal behind.
However, he could sense that this clear crystal was releasing a burst of suction force, seemingly absorbing something in the air.
Only then did he realize that the present bestowed upon him by the giant dragons had such an effect. It was just that they had never told him how to use it, and he still didn't know it could be activated. However, it was clear that the effect had been activated due to an external stimulus on this occasion, and this was something that he would have to look into later.
Right at this moment, an enraged voice rang out. "You haven't won yet!" Only then did Tang Wulin recall that he was in the midst of a battle with his love rival.
This match was far too important for Qiangu Zhangting; Gu Yuena was the most important part of his life, and he couldn't afford to lose her, so he had to win no matter what.
Qiangu Zhangting rose to his feet as he spoke, using his Coiling Dragon Staff as a crutch. In the instant that his domain had vanished, over half of his soul power had also disappeared, and even his battle armor had become dull and devoid of luster. Without the Evil Vanquishing Dragon, his powers had been depleted by at least 60%.
However, he still seemed to be full of confidence, and he reached out with his left hand, upon which a hexagonal object appeared in his grasp.
This was a grey metal badge, and in the instant that it appeared, all of the light on the competition platform suddenly dimmed, as if day had suddenly transitioned into night.
It seemed that the item was devouring all of the light.
The badge then slowly rose up from Qiangu Zhangting's hand to hover in mid-air, and it quickly expanded to a diameter of around 10 meters with its front surface directly facing Tang Wulin.
A sense of extreme peril instantly welled up in Tang Wulin's heart, and his mind began to tremble with inexplicable horror while his body seemed to have completely stiffened.
A peculiar-looking snake appeared at the center of the badge. The snake was of a dark grey color with a massive tongue, and right at this moment, it opened its eyes.
As soon as Tang Wulin caught sight of those eyes, he was completely paralyzed, and even the energy circulating within his battle armor seemed to have been instantly sealed away.
Those eyes were like a pair of crimson abysses that were sucking at his soul, and he could see that a projection that was around 100 meters tall had appeared behind the metal badge. This was a female figure with a head of giant snakes for hair, and her red eyes were filled with an aura of darkness. In Tang Wulin's eyes, it was as if everything around him had transformed into a crimson abyss.
His body was already beginning to fall backward involuntarily, and a sinister smile appeared on Qiangu Zhangting's face upon seeing this.
You asked for it! You made me do this!
It was said that this Soul Sucking Badge had been inherited from the Goddess of Sin, Medusa. This was a true divine weapon, and the ultimate trump card of the Qiangu Family.
Every time it was used, countless sacrificial offerings had to be made to maintain the wisp of Medusa's soul contained within the badge, and the Qiangu Family had killed countless soul beasts in the past as offerings to it.
