Chapter 346: Absorbing Dragon Souls
Chapter 346: Absorbing Dragon Souls
A light streak through outer-space, Tang Wulin with his hands that were holding the ruined body of Bahamut and the Black Dragon.
Moved towards the moon, wanting to fully absorb them. On the way, he gathered the bodies of the other gods, planning to take them down to the plane and use them to help fertilize.
From what Yggdrasil was suggesting, the bodies of a dead god can bring many benefits for a plane.
A god body is similar to the natural elements that govern the universe with these elements being able to help and heal the planet.
While they won't be able to return it to what it was twenty thousand years ago, as the energy needed was very high.
It could help restore a lot of its vitality, maybe even back to five or eight thousand years ago.
As Tang Wulin crashed down on the moon, laying the five bodies of the dragons to the ground.
He glances to the right, seeing the giant crater that Fafnir made when he used the moon as a launching pad.
Before he began devouring the soul of the Black Dragon, who was desperately trying to resist.
But it was futile, as once a Dragon Slayer began the devouring process, it was almost impossible to escape.
Even when he was weaker than a dragon, to the point, they could beat him with no effort.
He could still devour their souls after their death, as that was the degree between the dragons.
The dragon that loses, is devoured by the one who wins, indicating who is stronger and weaker.
After he was done with the Black Dragon, ignoring its screams and refusal to be devoured.
He turned his sights on the headless body of Bahamut that was already healing most of its wound.
'Such a terrifying regeneration, gods really are amazing.' Thought Tang Wulin as he began inhaling.
He knew the regeneration process would be faster and better for Bahamut had his Dragon Slayer energy not been rampaging inside.
"Mostly everything should be settled now." Zeref's voice rang out as he appeared next to Tang Wulin.
With the death of these god-level dragons, there isn't a present danger to the plane.
And with the damage that was inflicted on the Holy Spirit Cult and the Demon Monarch armies.
It would be very hard for them to recover, with the only thing that needed to be done is to hunt the remaining ones.
"Still, you sure played those dragons like a fiddle." Said Zeref with a chuckle.
Whether it be from the fact Tang Wulin could absorb their energy or the fact he was immune to their abilities.
Zeref knew the shock and disbelief these dragons felt must have been large, feeling like Tang Wulin was screwing with them.
Yet he also understands how terrifying Tang Wulin plans and controls the battle, only allowing himself to get it at the end.
To capitalize on an opening to finish the fight with a killer blow. Zeref knew that Tang Wulin used his time magic a lot in this fight, rewinding time, switching, and distorting the perceptions of the dragons.
'He has achieved a terrifying level in the world of time... But I know he can go further.' Thought Zeref with his eyes flashing.
'It was an enjoyable fight.' Thought Tang Wulin as he was close to finishing absorbing Bahamut.
Zeref only shook his head but as he was about to open his mouth, Tang Wulin's figure eyes slightly widened.
"... That persisting pest."Muttered Tang Wulin before his figure was engulfed with a crimson light.
"Wulin!" Shouted Zeref as he saw the area around them being bathed in a crimson light.
With the bottom of Tang Wulin being covered with crimson light, that was slowly moving upwards.
As if it wanted to cover his whole body!
"Bahamut is trying to possess and devour his consciousness." Said Yggdrasil as she appeared, looking at the light.
"I see... Then I pity that dragon."Muttered Zeref causing Yggdrasil to giggle.
"Not only is it trying to possess him but also destroy his mind. It won't be having a good time, they're going to devour him."
As she said that, a streak of light appeared in front of them, piercing into Tang Wulin head.

Deep within Tang Wulin spiritual sea, Bahamut blinked its eyes as he felt its final skill activating after its death.
One could think of it as a second way to live or a resurrection outside of the conventional method.
If someone was to kill it, its soul would be able to parasite on that person, through latching on to them.
Even if one was to destroy its soul, as long as a spec of it remained, it could still latch on.
Once it latches on to someone, it will slowly begin to possess and devour their mind, becoming a new Bahamut.
Not only granting it a new life but allowing it to get stronger as well.
'You have father aura and bloodline, far purer than mine... I will take your body, becoming the next Dragon God.' Thought Bahamut in glee as it began spreading out its crimson light.
As it began to submerge the bottom half of the area around it, it began to halt its advances.
As a wave of golden light swept through the area, dazzling and brilliant in its glow, a voice ringing out.
"What a naughty dragon."
The whole spiritual sea was illuminated as the blue palace began descending, it was adorned with symbols of the boundless sea.
Above it was a trident that was releasing mighty waves of power, with Old Tang standing at the edge, staring down at Bahamut.
Then came a multi-colored kingdom, it had large blue vines stretching luxuriously around it. Deep blue oceans that were glittering with a towering tree in the middle with Sleipnir laying in front of it.
It came below, its light pushing back the crimson glow, with specs of pinkish-green and golden lights around.
Then came a palace that was bathed in brilliant red and had a huge katana like a blood-red sword hanging over it.
It was boiling and flickering with murderous intent as it cut through the crimson light, its light eagerly devouring it.
The next region was a world bathed in the destructive energy and a purple castle in the middle, with a spectral figure standing above it.
Next to it was a world engulfed in life energy with lush forest all around and an enormous tree in the middle.
A gorgeous woman stood in front, her gaze was serene and calm yet held an indescribable rage in them, her figure was only ethereal.
Yet it has done nothing to take away the terrifying pressure emitting from her.
The region next to it was the sacred hall that kept the Golden Dragon King. The Golden Dragon King was hanging prominently in the sky but its brilliant eyes were staring down at Bahamut.
But that was all it could do before a relentless pressure descended as if a sky was being pressed down on its shoulder.
It felt its whole body being forced down, as multiple figures began to appear all around it.
A black dragon appeared above Bahamut who was shocked as it was the same dragon it fought and lost to.
Next to the black dragon was a demonic figure with tribal markings similar to the black dragon. But it was purple, with crimson eyes and two gilded horns that were protruding from its head.
And finally on the dragon right was a gigantic figure.
Around its body were two coiling dragons that were black and white. The figure eyes were pulsing like yin-yang, with six wings made out of dazzling white, shimmer with power.
Around its body were four divine weapons, Sea God Trident, Trishula, Dragon Slaying Spear, and Golden Dragon Spear.
Similar to the dragon and demonic figure, it also has tribal markings that were black and white, giving off a soft glow.
As all of these figures appeared, Bahamut could feel nothing but a terrifying pressure, wondering just what they were.
'These... Are they intent? How can they be so terrifying.' Thought Bahamut in shock, as he only felt such a feeling from the Dragon God himself.
Yet that was all he could think before all of these figures lash out, rushing to destroy Bahamut.
The murderous sword that was in the red castle, swept out with slaughter, cutting towards Bahamut.
The gorgeous women thrust out a palm, sweeping out with life and creation, descending on Bahamut.
The man with destruction around him smashed out with a fist, crackling with destruction as it pierced towards Bahamut.
Old Tang gripped a golden trident as he hacked out, sweeping out with the boundless sea, as it chopped towards Bahamut.
Golden Dragon King released a stream of destruction, as its madness and destruction intent rushed out.
The Black Dragon released a piercing light that pierced out, as streaks of light rushed out as well, revolving around the beam.
The Demonic Figure punched out, curses, death, and negativity hack out, rushing down to engulf Bahamut.
God Figure punched out as his divine weapons hacked out, his two dragons released a purging light towards Bahamut.
Bahamut could do nothing as these eight figures attacked him, his whole body being paralyzed in fear.
As he saw these figures enlarging, bigger than a planet as their attacks descended on it.
It could do nothing as their attack smashed into him, annihilating the crimson light around.
Stopping the corruption and body possession from continuing causing Bahamut to silently curse.
But he did note that none of them could do anything to it meaning those powers were only here to stop body possession.
While thinking this, it began to laugh inside as it glanced at all of the castles and saw them not moving again.
He began to believe in this thought, yet Old Tang only looked at him with pity while shaking his head.
"Trying to possess this body is nothing more than foolish. Unfortunately, for you, it will be your last lesson."Said Old Tang causing Bahamut to arch a brow.
Just as Old Tang San said this, Bahamut felt its figure being cracking, spider-cracks forming on its body.
"You..."
"Did you really think we couldn't hurt you? We are this boy automatic defense against any mental, corruption, or possessions attack. The only reason you aren't destroyed yet was that he wanted to finish." Said Old Tang with a shake of his head.
But before Bahamut could question who, the spiritual world was bathed in nine-colored lights.
As a figure began to take form, as swirling of nine-colored lights began to take form in front Bahamut.
"You..."
The eyes of this giant dragon are clear and brilliant gold, and every piece of the nine-color scales on the whole body is shown as an oval.
It can no longer be described by scales; it is more like nine-colored gems inlaid on it.
"...Father."
It was the Dragon God, its eyes flashed with nine-colors as it stared at Bahamut, a hint of sadness could be seen.
But the Dragon God didn't say anything as he outstretched his hand, the Dragon Slaying Spear forming in its hand.
"Father! Are you really going to do this? Am I not your son! How-"
"All evil dragons will be beheaded, regardless if it is my sons... Or even me."Said the Dragon God as his whole body illuminated in nine-colors.
"Now... Returned to my embrace, my troublesome child."
The Dragon God hacked out, waves of nine-colored descent on Bahamut, wishing to submerge and engulf it.
Yet Bahamut didn't say anything as it felt its whole existence being suppressed, as well a wave of sadness.
'Father...'
Right as the attack reached, the words of the Dragon God rang out, "You will serve the future heir, as your punishment."
Bahamut's figure was split in half before its whole body was destroyed from the nine-colors.
With its luminous wave instantly sweeping through the whole spiritual sea causing the other beings to look around.
"I will leave the rest to you." Said the Dragon God as he glances at Old Tang who nodded his head.
Dragon God held up his hand that was shining crimson, the soul of a Dragon within his hand.
Dragon God's eyes flashed in nine-colors before hurling the spirit towards Tang Wulin's spiritual mind.
Old Tang sighs as he snaps his finger causing the whole world to turn golden.
With the crimson light began absorbed, fading away.
