"Boom!"
In the underground space.
A youth with banished immortal-like elegance sat cross-legged atop the formidable and terrifying body of the Temporal Dragon King.
A nine-colored radiance flickered around him.
He watched as the Soul Rings and soul bones floated in the air, then simultaneously merged into Luo Yu's body.
The three ladies and Tang Chen's gaze quavered, feeling an unbelievable sensation even now.
"Can a mortal's body really absorb such terrifying Soul Rings and soul bones?" Tang Chen smacked his lips.
Bi Bidong gave him a sidelong glance.
"Shut your crow's mouth."
Tang Chen smiled wryly and shook his head.
He was not blind.
The first six Soul Rings of Luo Yu were clearly on the same level as these.
How could this absorption possibly fail?
It was just an exclamation borne out of an irresistible sense of shock.
Hulena's lips parted slightly, mumbling softly.
"Brother Yu... after several years not seen, have you already reached such heights?"
Her heart suddenly grew tense.
Because Luo Yu's strength had transcended that of mortals, imposing great pressure on her.
She had known Luo Yu down to his roots long ago.
The rice had already been cooked into a meal.
Her greatest fear was the man one day leaving her.
She couldn't help but feel anxious.
At this moment, not only Hulena but Bi Bidong and Bossi were continuously massaging their temples.
Worries filled their minds.
Luo Yu's current rapid improvement in strength had undoubtedly put great pressure on the two of them.
Facing anyone else, they had ample confidence.
There were almost no men in the world who could match them.
However, after being with Luo Yu, they truly felt an oppressing sensation.
Not on the surface, but deep in their hearts.
With their personalities, how could they be content with being just a vase?
"I must find a way to become stronger."
Bi Bidong secretly clenched her jade-like hand, her phoenix eyes flashing with resolute determination.
Bossi fretted to herself.
She had already reached her limit in terms of strength.
Because of her faith in the Sea God, her lifetime's limit could only be level 99 now.
What to do after that?
Her eyes glanced furtively at Bi Bidong.
This woman had a Deities' heritage, and in the future, wouldn't she end up outclassing her?
When it comes to the position of the Harem Master, she might not be able to compete later on.
Bossi was not content.
She bit her thin lips.
Her silver beautiful eyes suddenly brightened, a different charm passing through them.
I've got it!
Time to serve the little man well.
Men are so amazing.
He should have a way to help me sort out my issues with strength.
After thinking it over, Bossi felt this method was feasible.
Yet her face started to flush.
After all, as the High Priest, when had she ever been so charming towards a man?
It wasn't something she was used to.
But the thought of Bi Bidong growing stronger and taking charge of the harem authority.
Bossi gnashed her teeth.
What's there to be ashamed of in flattering one's own man?
The most beloved women are those who can act coy!!!
Bi Bidong noticed Bossi's odd behavior with a sharp peripheral vision.
She wondered to herself.
What is this woman plotting?
Hmph!
Maybe I don't need to be stronger than Brother Yu.
Just being stronger than Brother Yu's other women should be good enough, right?
Thinking this, Bi Bidong suddenly felt enlightened.
However, she immediately furrowed her brows.
Remembering this place belongs to the Rakshasa God, and they had barged in with Luo Yu and others.
If the Rakshasa God became troublesome, whether she could continue to receive the inheritance was a minor issue.
What about Luo Yu?
After all, he has not fully grown yet.
Bi Bidong felt an ominous premonition rise within her heart for no apparent reason.
It was as if in response.
A loud explosion echoed from above.
The land shook, and the space trembled.
The world around them turned a dark hue of red and black.
The Blood Evil Qi spread out.
"What's happening!!"
Everyone was greatly alarmed.
Tang Chen focused his attention, gripping the Hao Tian Hammer tightly in his hand as the nine soul rings beneath his feet stirred.
Bi Bidong's Spider Emperor's Spirit possessed her body, and the Sea God Phantom appeared behind Bossi.
They watched warily as the sky filled with an overwhelming evil aura.
"Whoosh!"
A black fissure opened in the space above.
"Sizzle—"
Black and red blood dripped from the spatial crack.
A silhouette emerged.
He had long blue hair that reached his waist, a handsome yet pale face marred by malevolence, and a pair of horrifying purple-black eyes, devoid of sclera.
His body was stained with blood, emitting an evil aura.
On his chest was a large scar that had long since healed.
Tang Chen and the others shivered uncontrollably.
It was as if a single glance from the figure could bring them to their knees.
They were greatly shocked.
Who in the skies was this person, that they instinctively felt fear of such intensity?
"You... who are you," Tang Chen demanded, grasping the Hao Tian Hammer so tightly his fingers turned white, staring fixedly at the figure in the sky.
"My name is not for you to know."
The figure in the sky looked down indifferently, his purple-black pupils lacking any human emotion.
"You!!!" Tang Chen felt humiliated and let out a voice full of indignation.
"Insects, kneel."
With just those words, the figure commanded an authority like that of the heavens.
Tang Chen felt a creeping sensation on his scalp, his spirit broke, and his knees weakened, nearly causing him to stumble to the ground.
"Regain your focus!" Bossi shouted sharply.
Tang Chen's gaze regained a trace of lucidity, as his knees were about to hit the ground.
He leaned to the side and swung his hammer to the ground for support.
Using the rebounding force, he stood back up.
Without even the chance to thank Bossi, he blurted out in panic,
"You... you're not human."
"Not human?"
Upon hearing this, Bossi's mind recoiled.
"Heh heh."
The figure in the sky simply sneered, providing no response.
The fissure in the sky above continued to leak black and red blood, which was absorbed by his entire body.
As the blood entered his body, his aura grew even more formidable.
His flesh became fuller.
His indifferent eyes completely disregarded Bi Bidong and the others, focusing solely on the Temporal Dragon King and Luo Yu, who was sitting atop it.
"Interesting, very interesting."
"I thought a few insignificant insects had come in, not requiring attention, but it turns out to be the remnants of the Dragon Clan."
Feeling the terrifying fluctuations outside, Luo Yu now felt like cursing.
He wanted to grab hold of the Temporal Dragon King's neck, if it were small enough to grab, and demand loudly.
You said to absorb with confidence, that the Rakshasa God wouldn't appear.
The damn fellow showed up as soon as I made my move.
Isn't this just timing it so that I can't fight back while absorbing soul rings and soul bones?
There's no escape; just a sitting duck for them.
Luo Yu was anxiously fretting inside.
But it was of no use.
While absorbing soul rings is easy, absorbing a soul bone is not so simple.
Especially since it's the most crucial skull soul bone.
How could it be easy when it concerns the head?
Moreover, his Dantian was accepting the seventh Dragon King Origin Power.
This isn't just a matter of absorbing it into the Dantian and being done with it.
The orb condensed from the Six Great Dragon King's Original Forces within, under the regulation of the Dragon God Martial Soul, had reached a balance.
The introduction of a new force was bound to disrupt that balance before achieving a new equilibrium.
At this moment, Luo Yu was multitasking and couldn't concentrate fully on the task at hand.
This really sucks!
Luo Yu cursed inwardly, having no other choice but to speed up the absorption process.
Fortunately, with the Temporal Dragon King's active cooperation, the absorption speed was much faster than before.
