It was no wonder that the masters in the ruins of the Lost Nation had asked Shen Lang again and again to confirm if he was ready.
It turned out that the second dragon enlightenment was so dangerous that it felt like death.
This was because after Shen Lang entered the well, his soul was instantly trapped.
This feeling was too familiar. It was as if the entire world had turned into nothingness, and he could not feel his body at all. There was only a wandering soul.
In this 3D alien civilization, the word "Dragon" was like an independent mental world, boundless and ever-changing.
The process of enlightenment was more like a process of escape.
Yes, escape.
Not only was it the kind of escape from prison and freedom, but it was also the kind of escape where one was constantly in danger and could preserve oneself.
This was because this character was ever-changing and surged with all kinds of strange energy.
At this moment, a certain point, a certain direction was safe.
At the next moment, that point would become hell.
Endless transformations, endless energy methods.
It was as if one was in a hellish world, a world of fire, a world of ice.
At the beginning, just escaping was enough. After grasping the laws of energy and changes, one could escape.
But later, just escaping was no longer enough. One had to be immersed in it and take the initiative to change oneself.
In the end, one even had to actively change the other party's energy circulation method.
Of course, all of this was illusory. It was completely a spiritual and spiritual world.
But all of this was real. If one failed, one's life might really be in danger.
What was even more bizarre was that Shen Lang and the dragon's encounter was almost exactly the same.
Shen Lang's soul was trapped in this dry well.
The dragon's body was completely destroyed. Only the most primitive soul was left, trapped in the endless radiation of the Dragon Pool.
At the beginning, Shen Lang was escaping, and so was the dragon's soul.
This was because in this Ancient Dragon Pool, countless types of energy were surging, fighting, and changing.
In order to allow the dragon to grow quickly, this Dragon Pool contained many types of energy and materials. They were completely matched according to the most perfect ratio.
But after the Setting Sun Weapon attacked this place, countless uranium and astronomical amounts of radiation energy surged into the Dragon Pool.
Then what should one do?
Countless types of energy and materials fought and changed crazily for a single goal.
Enter a new balance.
When the dragon's soul entered the Dragon Pool, it was also extremely small. The Dragon Pool was boundless and huge, and it was constantly changing. At this moment, this area was still peaceful, because a temporary balance had been reached. However, in the next moment, this balance was immediately broken. Many types of energy once again collided violently and transformed.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
Anything could happen in the Dragon Pool. Atomic fission, material collapse, all kinds of rays, all kinds of radiation, extreme heat, strange magnetic fields, and so on. It was a terrifying energy battle field.
Every second, the Dragon Pool was filled with boundless energy, fighting on countless battlefields.
In the beginning, the dragon's soul could only hide desperately and find a safe place.
Gradually, just dodging was no longer possible because there was no safe zone.
Therefore, he had to actively change his energy state to resist the terrifying energy damage.
Then, he realized that even if he actively changed himself, it would not work. Many of the injuries were too terrifying, and even if he tried to change himself, it would be useless. He had to join the battle of these energies and actively change their states.
Later on, he would take the initiative to fight and even take the initiative to destroy.
In short, it was endless battles and crazy changes.
In this Dragon Pool, there was no order. It was completely chaotic.
And the only order was the dragon's soul itself.
In this battle and change, it became stronger and stronger.
When it was strong to a certain extent, it began to devour.
At first, it could only devour part of the energy and matter.
However, as it changed and became stronger, it devoured more and more energy and matter.
Its energy became stronger and the matter in the Dragon Pool reconstructed its body again.
Finally, it was no longer a naked soul. It was reborn into a foot-long dragon, as if it had just hatched.
Of course, this was only the same on the surface, but the inside had changed. It was stronger and more perfect.
Then, it devoured and grew even more crazily!
Previously, it needed a year to devour volcanoes and food to grow. Now, it might take less than a year.
It was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Getting bigger and stronger!
… …
There was a saying called helping each other.
At this moment, the dragon and Shen Lang were helping each other.
The danger that the dragon encountered in the Dragon Pool was also encountered by Shen Lang in the Dragon's Enlightenment space.
It looked completely different, but in fact, it was completely the same.
Shen Lang's soul was also extremely weak and small in the Dragon's Enlightenment space.
The crazy changes made him constantly change, learn, fight, and devour.
However, the dragon devoured energy and matter.
On the other hand, Shen Lang devoured knowledge and a certain amount of spirit and soul.
Even though Shen Lang and the giant dragon were separated by more than ten thousand miles, they were able to empathize with each other.
This wasn't just the feeling of playing online games. In fact, it was like he was in you and you were in me.
Sometimes, Shen Lang even felt that he was in the Dragon Pool, transforming along with the dragon.
There were countless dangers. It was impossible to rely on the dragon alone. It needed Shen Lang's wisdom and calculations.
Without Shen Lang, the dragon wouldn't be able to live for more than ten seconds and would immediately turn into ashes.
And there were countless dangers. It was impossible to rely on Shen Lang alone. Although he had enough wisdom, his thinking was purely human. His understanding of energy was far less thorough than the dragon's, so he had to rely on the dragon's instincts.
The dragon's instincts, coupled with Shen Lang's wisdom, allowed them to survive one crisis after another.
Countless transformations, countless battles, and countless devours.
The dragon was right. This was a hopeless situation. If it wasn't for Shen Lang.
Neither of them could be missing.
… …
Half a year. Only half a year had passed in the real world.
But for Shen Lang's soul, how much time had passed?
He really didn't know, because everything that happened in the spiritual world could be a lifetime, or several lifetimes.
This kind of Dragon's Enlightenment was really a kind of enlightenment of civilization and energy.
It was like a life that was born on a planet. This planet was full of danger. At first, this life was looking for a safe place. Then, it changed itself. Then, it became stronger. It borrowed the planet's matter. What was its final goal?
To leave this planet and go deeper and further into space.
It was like humans struggling for countless years. They always had a big goal, the sea of stars!
First, they had to overcome the earth's gravity and go into space. This was something humans had done.
Next was to overcome the solar system's gravity and go to space outside the solar system. This was not done yet.
In the end, Shen Lang realized that whether it was a life or a civilization, they all had the same goal and similar philosophies.
But this mid-level Dragon's Enlightenment was really like struggling in hell a hundred times.
It really exhausted all of Shen Lang's wisdom, luck, and spirit.
Finally!
Everything was over.
His soul seemed to break free from the dragon character in the well. The special spiritual world formed by the lives and souls of the nine virtuous sages.
He completed the second stage of Dragon's Enlightenment.
His soul returned to his body and then quietly stared blankly.
Putting aside these mysterious things, what did Shen Lang learn in the second stage of Dragon's Enlightenment?
Many, many, many!
The first result was almost the principle of the Nightmare Stone.
The second result was how to use the energy environment to form an ultra-high pressure and turn hydrogen into metallic hydrogen to build an energy core.
The third result was how to compress the energy of the dragon blood into the purest dragon blood marrow to create the Dragon's Heart and Dragon's Regret.
It was unimaginable that he directly learned the principle of creating the Dragon's Regret during the mid-level Dragon's Enlightenment.
Everyone's Dragon's Enlightenment was different, but they were all common results.
Basically, everyone who completed the mid-level Dragon's Enlightenment could learn these contents.
But Shen Lang had his own Dragon's Enlightenment.
The Doomsday Plan could be completed directly.
This was because Shen Lang had obtained a method to purify uranium in the mid-level Dragon's Enlightenment. It was completely different from the centrifuges on Earth.
Of course, this required the use of a dragon. But if there was no dragon, the Dragon's Heart could also be used.
The only thing was to enlarge the Dragon's Heart into a large device and continuously purify uranium from afar. Moreover, it would directly exceed 99%.
Once 99% of the uranium was purified, it could directly make an atomic bomb and directly undergo a fission reaction.
This was Shen Lang's one and only mid-level Dragon's Enlightenment.
The gains were unimaginable. It surpassed the sum of all of Shen Lang's knowledge of energy.
The ancient books and scrolls that he had read were the results of translation. It was a waste of mental resources and was not direct enough.
This was because it had to be translated into words and images that humans could understand. The things that words and images could express were very limited.
Some profound things could only exist in one's thoughts and could not be accurately expressed through rehearsal.
The Dragon's Enlightenment was to use the most direct method of energy to sense and understand. It was to cast aside the barrier of words.
Although it was called the Dragon's Enlightenment … it was not just a dragon. It was a unique civilization of energy.
The Nightmare Stone, Dragon's Regret, and even the birth of the Great Dragon were born from this civilization.
At this moment, Shen Lang felt that being invincible was truly lonely.
This invincibility was not because of his martial arts prowess, but because he had mastered super powerful knowledge of energy.
At this moment, he understood Great Yan's emperor very well. The emperor was one of the few people in this world who was on the same level as Shen Lang.
Previously, people had always said that the emperor did not know martial arts. However, no one believed them. They felt that the emperor's martial arts must be extremely powerful, but he had never demonstrated it.
Now, Shen Lang was certain that the emperor did not know martial arts. After all, he did not need martial arts.
For someone like the emperor, time was too precious. The more he used it to comprehend, the more he used it to learn. Why would he practice martial arts?
Shen Lang understood that for a long time, the emperor did not care about Ying Guang or Shen Lang.
There was only one thing in his spiritual world, and that was his dragon.
Moreover, he and his dragon had grown together.
His dragon had been in a state of deep sleep for a long time. The impact of the Fire Dragon Comet was a critical juncture.
This was equivalent to giving an electric shock to a dying giant dragon, allowing its ancient, dormant heart to once again resume its slowest beating.
After that, Great Yan's emperor led the dragon out of the hellish predicament in his weakened Dragon Pool.
He had made the dragon.
The dragon had made him.
His knowledge of mid-grade dragons had saved the dragon's life.
Before this, Shen Lang had never understood the emperor. Now, he had a better understanding.
The emperor … was also amazing.
Although he was an enemy, he was truly amazing.
With his wisdom, he had revived the ancient civilization. Great Yan had gained control of the ancient martial arts and dominated the world.
Then, with his wisdom, he had revived a dragon that had been dead for countless years.
Shen Lang could not imagine how long it had taken the emperor to save Great Yan's dragon.
However, it was definitely not a few years. The impact of the Fire Dragon Comet was only a precious trigger that greatly accelerated the dragon's recovery.
He had probably sacrificed decades of his life to save this dragon.
His Dragon Pool was not something that could be built in a few years.
The Ji Clan of the Great Yan Empire must have spent several generations of time and wisdom to rebuild the Dragon Pool and revive this dragon.
Everyone only saw the emperor as all-powerful and invincible.
At this moment, Shen Lang saw how much wisdom and effort the emperor had put into this day, and how many generations of effort he had put in.
Before this, Shen Lang did not understand why Great Yan's emperor had completely sealed off trade between the eastern and western worlds. Now, he understood.
Indeed, he was the most amazing enemy to date. Moreover, he did not rely on politics or schemes. He relied on true strength.
However …
An enemy was an enemy.
This would never change. Between the Jiang Clan and the Ji Clan in the eastern world, only one person could be the ruler of the world.
More than 30 years ago, the Jiang Clan and the Ji Clan fought to be the ruler of the world.
Jiang Li died, and the Jiang Clan lost.
At that time, Great Yan's emperor did not have a dragon. He only possessed wisdom, the power of the ancient civilization, and the order of energy.
This time, Shen Lang was filled with boundless confidence.
There was no other reason. His dragon had died once.
This was because his enlightenment of the dragon was ten times more difficult and dangerous than Great Yan's emperor's.
It was the same for the dragon. His resurrection this time was more than a hundred times more dangerous than Great Yan's dragon's. The trials and tribulations he suffered were also countless times more.
He did not rely on talent, talent, or luck. Instead, he relied on endless trials and tribulations to grow stronger.
Although it was only half a year in the real world, to both Shen Lang and the dragon's soul, it was countless years.
Shen Lang slowly walked out of the pyramid and exhaled.
His entire being had changed greatly. Not only his gaze and aura, but even the shape of his face had changed. He was slightly different from the humans of this world.
He did not roar. He merely stood quietly on the peak of the ten-thousand-meter snow mountain.
Moreover, he was not looking in the direction of Yan Capital, but the northernmost continent.
… …
Meanwhile!
Inside the Ancient Dragon Pool on Yujing Mountain.
A dragon flew out of the Dragon Pool and slowly rose into the air.
It flew to the highest point of Yujing Mountain. The barrier here enveloped the entire Dragon Pool. No one could pass through it, not even the dragon from before. Only the Hell's Soul Pearl could melt a hole in the barrier.
Now, the Jiang family's dragon exhaled softly and melted a hole in the barrier. It flew out and stood on the peak of Yujing Mountain, which was more than ten thousand meters tall.
Previously, every time it appeared, it was earth-shattering.
It flew across the sky, stirring up scorching hurricanes and causing the ground to tremble. It even burned the rocks and trees on the ground.
It was awe-inspiring, but it could only unleash it.
Now, it stood quietly on the peak of Yujing Mountain. It did not roar, nor did it shake the heavens and earth. It did not even spread its wings to envelop the sky. It appeared calm and collected.
This was because it no longer needed to release powerful energy to display its might and presence.
The countless battles and life-and-death situations in the Ancient Dragon Pool allowed it to experience growth that it had never experienced in its life.
Its body did not grow larger. Instead, it shrunk. It was only a few dozen meters tall, about the same size as a supersonic flying beast.
Previously, it could blot out the sky and earth. When it flew past, the shadow it cast on the ground was enough to cover an entire city.
However, now, it could be infinitely large or extremely small.
It could choose the most comfortable state for itself.
"My master, my Dragon Envoy, you've helped me. You've saved me," the dragon said slowly, "I'm coming."
Then, it flew toward the sky above the ruins of the Lost Nation.
It seemed to be flapping its wings very slowly, but in the next instant, it was already 100 li away.
This did not seem like Shadow Displacement, nor was it spatial folding. Instead, it was … the reorganization of energy and body.
It was very profound, wasn't it?
The principle was very simple. It breathed out a single point and instantly moved 100 li away.
Then, its body would disperse on the spot and reassemble itself 100 li away around that point.
The entire process was very quick. After all, it had practiced this countless times in the Dragon Pool. Without this technique, it would not have been able to live for more than a month before it was reduced to ashes in the Dragon Pool.
This foreign energy reorganization was also a result of Shen Lang's mid-ranked Dragon's Insight.
In other words, Shen Lang had taught it.
The last time the Jiang clan dragon returned from the western world, it was very far away, but it was already sensed by Great Yan's emperor.
This time, it did not leak any energy. Almost no one could sense its presence.
Moreover, it did not cause any hurricanes or energy fluctuations even after moving 100 li away in an instant.
Its Nirvana transformation was all-encompassing. Its strength had far surpassed anyone's imagination.
In other words, its strength had even surpassed that of its Primordial Era kin.
After all, the transformation of an Primordial Dragon did not involve uranium or dangerous radiation.
Could it be that only dangerous and terrifying things could allow a dragon to truly grow?
… …
Jade Capital Mountain was more than 50,000 li away from the ruins of the Lost Nation.
However, it did not take long before the Jiang clan dragon appeared in the air above the ruins of the Lost Nation.
"My old friend, congratulations." Even though the dragon was still 100 li away, Shen Lang extended his hand.
In the next instant, the dragon appeared before Shen Lang and pressed its forehead against Shen Lang's hand.
"Thank you for your help, my Dragon Envoy," the dragon said, "You've changed."
Shen Lang said, "You've changed even more than I have."
At this moment, Dachao carefully flew over and stood beside the dragon.
This was a very strange thing. In the past, Dachao never dared to approach the dragon because it was too terrifying. Before he even got close, he would feel as if he would be crushed by the dragon's energy aura.
Now that Dachao dared to approach the dragon, it was clear how much it had changed.
The evolution of weapons was the same. When it was a sharp sword or a mace, it looked extremely sharp and terrifying, making people afraid to touch it.
However, when it was a gun, it was no longer that terrifying. Still, one had to be careful because pulling the trigger could cause accidental damage.
When it came to the level of an atomic bomb, very few people would recognize its core components if they were removed and placed on the ground. In fact, people could even pick them up and play with them.
When it came to the level of a hydrogen bomb, even if you threw it into a raging inferno, even if you attacked it with a missile, it would not explode.
When the power of a weapon reached a certain level, it would be restrained.
Perhaps … it was the same for humans.
At this moment, inside the pyramid at the peak of the snow mountain, 13 withered corpses were quietly sitting around the dry well. The dry well was already empty.
The last words of these 13 masters were left on the ground.
"Annihilate us, completely erase us from the world, and let the endless void become our grave."
Shen Lang stroked the dragon's head and said, "I'm counting on you, dragon!"
The Jiang Clan's dragon nodded. Because it was only a few dozen meters tall, it couldn't be called a dragon anymore.
It opened its mouth and lightly breathed.
In an instant …
Everything inside the pyramid was annihilated.
As if performing a magic trick, the 13 corpses disappeared, the dry well disappeared, and finally, the entire huge pyramid disappeared.
It didn't burn, it didn't explode into pieces, and it didn't even turn into powder. It just directly disintegrated.
Dachao originally saw that the Jiang Clan's dragon had become the same size as him and looked very approachable, so he wanted to strike up a conversation and make friends.
At this moment, seeing this magical scene, its jaw dropped, showing that it was completely shocked.
Then, it hurriedly took a few steps back, wanting to maintain a distance from the Jiang Clan's dragon to express its fear.
But just as it took half a step back, it came up again and rubbed its head against Shen Lang's leg, calling out.
Master, although I'm not that powerful, please don't abandon me, I'm very obedient.
Because it found that its combat skills seemed to be useless, and it had to open a new technology tree to survive.
Ugh, is this how national treasures are born? It's clearly a ferocious beast, but it has to rely on acting cute.
The great funeral of the 13 masters ended.
This pyramid that stood on the peak of the snow mountain for countless years completely disappeared.
"Let's go back!"
Shen Lang rode on Dachao's back and flew towards Raging Tide City.
The dragon was like an ordinary flying beast, flying side by side with Dachao, not a bit faster or slower.
This made Dachao almost forget how powerful dragons were. It once again felt that its big brother was very approachable, oh no, he was an approachable beast.
… …
A few days later, Shen Lang returned to Raging Tide City.
This time, the dragon didn't hate Raging Tide City, nor did it stay tens of thousands of miles away. Instead, it followed Dachao and landed in the big castle.
It didn't show any rejection towards the uranium under Raging Tide City, nor did it show any intimacy or covetousness, it was just very indifferent.
"Big brother, I'll take you to see our little brothers." Dachao said: "From now on, you are our boss."
Of course, Dachao couldn't speak, it could only shake its head and tail, making a squeaking sound.
The dragon smiled awkwardly and politely.
Dachao looked up to the sky and shouted a few times.
Usually, nearly a thousand ultrasonic flying beasts would respond, and then fly into the sky to greet them.
Because Dachao was Shen Lang's mount, it naturally became the boss. Those mutated behemoths with the Dragon Power launcher might be huge, but they were very stupid and not fierce at all. After encountering normal ultrasonic flying beasts, even if they were many times bigger than them, they would still be afraid of whoever they saw.
But this time, when Dachao shouted, only a dozen or so responded.
Huh? Where are the remaining nearly a thousand ultrasonic flying beasts?
Where are the remaining countless snow eagle troops?
Soon after, Suo Xuan and Zhang Chunhua came to greet them with a few dozen people.
Suo Xuan and Zhang Chunhua were stunned at first, then they said with wild joy: "Greetings, Your Majesty, long live!"
Shen Lang had disappeared for eight months.
Eight months ago, he brought the giant dragons to battle, and then they never returned, only Great Yan's giant dragons returned.
Shen Lang said in surprise: "Why are there so few people?"
Yes, where were Zhang Chong, Jin Zhuo, the Wu Kingdom's crown prince, Chu Kingdom's crown prince, Li Xuanqi, Wu Jue, Jin Shiying, Princess Dola, Hila, Big Fool, Aru Nana, and the others?
Although Prince Jin and Su Nan went to Qian Capital, and also brought the Minister of State and half of the Privy Council, Raging Tide City was still full of generals and civil officials.
Not only that, what about the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Raging Tide City? Now, there were less than tens of thousands of soldiers left.
Where did they go?
Suo Xuan said, "Your Majesty, the people of Raging Tide City are at the frontlines."
Shen Lang was stunned. Frontlines? Where did the frontlines come from?
Suo Xuan said, "Your Majesty, war broke out more than half a year ago."
"More than half a year ago, you led the giant dragons to battle Great Yan's giant dragons for Qian Capital. The giant dragons returned, but you never returned. Many people thought that you and the giant dragons were sacrificed. Countless people went mad and burned. "
"First, the citizens of Qian Capital attacked the Great Yan Empire with machetes and hoes. Prince Jin couldn't stop them because the Qian Capital army followed."
"Then, the war between us and the Great Yan Empire erupted. It grew more and more intense."
"The Qian Capital army was escorted, followed by the armies of Wu, Chu, and Yue Kingdoms."
"Finally, the Raging Tide City army was escorted."
"The Jin Kingdom and the Liang Kingdom joined the war. Almost all the kingdoms were involved in the war."
"Three months ago, the Western Fire God Sect's envoy and the Xilun Empire's fleet came to visit. There were 110,000 of them, led by Prime Minister Duke Russell. He saw that we were fighting against the Great Yan Empire, so they joined the war."
"If I'm not mistaken, the Xilun Empire is gathering hundreds of thousands of soldiers and preparing to cross the sea to support the Great Qian Empire."
Shen Lang was completely stunned!
A world war broke out while he was missing?
The fuse was Shen Lang's disappearance. Many people thought that Shen Lang had died.
Therefore, the entire Great Qian Empire was enraged and declared war on the Great Yan Empire. Prince Jin couldn't stop it, and neither could the higher-ups of the Great Qian Empire.
Therefore, the war became more and more intense, and it became a world war in the east.
No, it was a world war because the Xilun Empire was also involved.
"Didn't Chou Yao Er find me and tell me that I'm safe and sound?" Shen Lang said in a hoarse voice.
Suo Xuan said, "Yes, but once the flames of the Great Qian Empire are ignited, it can never be extinguished. Once this war starts, it can never end. "
Shen Lang was overwhelmed with emotions, and tears welled up in his eyes.
A familiar scene played out again. Countless people once again rushed forward for him, like moths to a flame.
Last time, there were 100,000 people, but this time, it was an astronomical figure.
A real world war!
