CHAPTER 571: CHAPTER 546: SUCCESS!

The power of realms, the power of laws, and the power of the soul, Wang Xu has now completely reached the realm of Perfection in all three forces.

Sufficiently qualified to try!

With a single shout, Lan Ji’s figure quietly appeared beside him.

"Begin." Without much inquiry, Lan Ji directly waved his hand, opening the Dragon Circle.

Watching the ten White Dragons roaring and charging at him, Wang Xu extended his hand.

"The Perfection of ’Zheng’, what will it truly look like?"

He slowly closed his eyes.

It was as if his entire being was immersed in an incredibly wonderful world.

A place without deceit and betrayal, without life-and-death battles, without the tragic suffering of Hell, everything seemed to be the most beautiful existence... lingering in Wang Xu’s heart...

Whoosh!

Suddenly, behind Wang Xu, a faint shadow formed by black light slowly appeared.

"What is this?" the figure in the red robe, You Ji, stood not far from Wang Xu, looking at the scene in astonishment.

"Soul power... What kind of soul power is this, why do I always feel... like there is an emperor in front of me, and I need to bow and worship him!"

"It’s Tai Xu Saint Venerable, look behind him, a soul avatar has appeared!"

"That... is it... am I seeing it correctly!"

"It’s truly Emperor Xuanlong! How does Emperor Xuanlong’s avatar manifest in his soul avatar?"

Many of the Saint Venerable Ancestors stood up involuntarily, their faces full of shock.

If the power of realms reaching Perfection allows the physical body to transcend a great realm, and the power of laws reaching Perfection can lead to the phenomenon of the Law of Body Transformation, then when soul power reaches Perfection, a "soul avatar" will appear.

Once, You Ji also existed as a soul avatar coexisting with Wang Xu.

Now Wang Xu has also birthed a soul avatar, indicating that his soul power has also reached the Perfection Realm.

However, what was shocking was that when the soul avatar appeared, it usually manifested the figure of the cultivator himself.

Yet Wang Xu’s soul avatar was Emperor Xuanlong!

His clothes fluttered, like an ethereal being beyond the world, with a head of flowing white hair dancing lightly in the wind. Those dark golden eyes held unfathomable depth, as if all worldly changes were just fleeting clouds to him, not worth mentioning.

Though there was not a hint of the Great Emperor’s aura, this soul avatar contained the unique momentum of a Great Emperor.

This is irreplaceable.

"After waiting for so many years, I can finally be freed." Lan Ji, seeing the soul avatar behind Wang Xu gradually enlarging, smiled slightly with a hint of relief that a wish had been fulfilled.

"Emperor Xuanlong’s soul avatar?!"

The Dark Night Saint Venerable saw at a glance the figure of Emperor Xuanlong that shocked everyone.

"It’s truly Emperor Xuanlong... it’s really him... Could it be that he has already cultivated ’Zheng’ to Perfection? Impossible! Impossible! How could he have achieved Perfection in ’Zheng’ before me, this is impossible!!" Dark Night Saint Venerable could not believe what was happening before his eyes.

Two million years ago, he already knew that ’Zheng’ did not have a seventh level, but required the integration of one’s own path to make ’Zheng’ perfect.

Over these two million years, he had gradually infused his own path into ’Zheng’, only a step away from success.

Yet at this moment, Wang Xu revealed the soul avatar of Emperor Xuanlong with the most perfect presence.

This indicated something that the Dark Night Saint Venerable knew very well—Wang Xu had already integrated his personal path into ’Zheng’ ahead of him, leading to such a transformation in his soul avatar!

No matter how much the Dark Night Saint Venerable refused to believe it, the facts were laid out before him, and even with the most heaven-defying, monstrously gifted talent, he could not prevent the harsh reality from arriving.

...

"Submit."

Wang Xu opened his eyes and uttered two words as he looked up.

Simultaneously, behind him, the soul avatar of Emperor Xuanlong also spoke these two words.

No black light appeared, nor did soul power surge; the ten White Dragons charging at Wang Xu suddenly lost all their ferocity with just these words.

"Master."

"Master."

The ten White Dragons were completely enslaved by Wang Xu.

With just a single sentence, he enslaved White Dragons of the Saint Venerable Realm!

The perfect soul power, combined with Wang Xu’s path within ’Zheng’, united to produce an effect that enhanced countlessfold.

"No wonder Qing Fa once said, soul cultivators are all difficult and troublesome to deal with, now I finally understand why Qing Fa said that." You Ji muttered.

Soul cultivators specialize in soul power.

Their attacks are formless and traceless; a word, a glance, can seize one’s soul!

In battle, if one’s soul becomes distracted, it could be instantly fatal.

"Keep moving forward."

Wang Xu’s dominance was imposing, with his soul power nearing Perfection now, he feared nothing!

Then, the Blue Dragon, Red Dragon, Yellow Dragon, and Silver Dragon all succumbed under Wang Xu’s single word "submit," their fierce expressions subdued, each loyal and obedient, even if asked to commit suicide on the spot, they did so without hesitation.

Roar!

Roar!

Wang Xu stepped into the Golden Dragon Battle Circle.

At this moment, the hearts of many Saint Venerable Ancestors were up in their throats.

When Wang Xu manifested Emperor Xuanlong’s soul avatar, they vaguely sensed that perhaps today, it would be by Tai Xu Saint Venerable passing this trial, to obtain the Great Emperor’s Treasure left by Emperor Xuanlong!

Ten Golden Dragons bared their fangs and brandished their claws, roaring fiercely as they attacked.

This was the final hurdle.

Successful enslavement would mean successfully passing the trial and obtaining the Great Emperor’s Treasure.

If unsuccessful, one would continue to be trapped in this sunless place.

Wang Xu’s gaze was sharp, with an unyielding dominance and determination in his eyes.

Success or failure hinges on this!

"Submit."

Like a giant bell ringing in the heavens, above Wang Xu’s head, from the soul projection of Emperor Xuanlong, a powerful surge of soul force emerged, transforming into a colossal grinding plate spanning the sky and earth.

Grinding Plate Great Space-Time.

However, unlike before, this time, what Wang Xu unleashed was the most perfected "Zheng"!

The soul projection of Emperor Xuanlong extended a hand towards the ten golden dragons fiercely attacking Wang Xu.

In that instant, everything became incredibly slow.

It was as if time and space turned into a swamp, and everything seemed to fall into slow motion.

"Can it succeed?"

"I’m afraid... it can!"

Many of the Saint Venerable Ancestors below looked tense, their eyes fixed on the soul projection of Emperor Xuanlong.

Even the Ancestor of Wine and Music, who had always been nonchalant and indifferent to everything, stopped drinking, his gaze focused here.

"He won’t succeed... won’t... definitely won’t!"

The Dark Night Saint Venerable roared inwardly, unable to take his eyes off for a moment.

The giant grinding plate slowly rotated, twisting the void, exuding a terrifying soul force.

Roar——

The souls of the ten golden dragons were affected, showing pained expressions as their massive dragon bodies struggled and writhed in the void.

"Will it fail?" You Ji frowned, recognizing this familiar scene.

Wang Xu had attempted countless times to enslave them, but every time, the scene was the same.

The golden dragons struggled, roared, cried in pain, and ultimately met their demise or returned to their original state, all failures.

Could this time also be a failure?

You Ji held his breath, focusing intently.

The soul’s twisted pain was unbearable, even for the Ancestor Realm golden dragons, who suffered greatly.

At that moment, a soul-virtualized giant hand—a palm from Emperor Xuanlong—approached a golden dragon writhing in agony.

He gently stroked the dragon, and in the dark gold eyes of the soul projection, the dominance was gone, leaving only a gentle calmness.

At this moment, Emperor Xuanlong no longer seemed like a supreme being standing on the clouds but like an ordinary person with a special affection for dragon beasts.

Roar!

The golden dragon let out a feeble roar, and under Emperor Xuanlong’s gentle touch, it gradually stopped struggling.

"Has the golden dragon stopped moving? Is it dead?"

"No, its life force hasn’t disappeared, the golden dragon isn’t dead yet!"

The Saint Venerable Ancestors were more nervous than ever, even more so than when they faced the Myriad Transformations Cosmic Tribulation or Crossing Reincarnation.

"Master."

Suddenly, an incredibly gentle voice came from the golden dragon’s mouth.

The moment this voice sounded, it was as if the world fell into a moment of deathly silence.

After a full three breaths.

"My God! It actually succeeded!"

"I can’t believe it; the one who passed this trial turns out to be Tai Xu Saint Venerable!"

"The Great Emperor’s Treasure is about to be revealed; I can’t wait to see what kind of supreme treasure Emperor Xuanlong’s monstrous trial has left behind."

The Saint Venerable Ancestors erupted in excitement!

Even though they didn’t want to see Wang Xu pass this trial, they were powerless, and their curiosity about Emperor Xuanlong’s treasure was piqued, eager to see what kind of supreme treasure it would be.

He succeeded!

You Ji took a deep breath, punched the air forcefully to express the surge of excitement in his heart.

"Did he... did he succeed?" The Dark Night Saint Venerable’s eyes dimmed suddenly, as if aged by countless years, losing their former luster.

As a once-in-a-century prodigy, given enough time, reaching the Great Emperor Realm was not impossible for him.

But no matter how high his future achievements, there would always be a knot in his heart.

He lost; he lost to Wang Xu, who, merely a Duality Saint Venerable Realm, surpassed him within a span of a few million years, achieving what even he couldn’t.

Even though most of the credit should go to You Ji, a loss is a loss, with no excuses.

Wang Xu, at this moment, let out a sigh of relief, with a faint smile on his face.

It seems he was right; the key to passing this trial lies in "Zheng"; only with the perfect "Zheng" can one enslave the golden dragons.

"Master."

"Master."

As the first golden dragon submitted, the remaining nine golden dragons gradually stopped struggling, their massive bodies circling and spiraling around Wang Xu, appearing extremely docile.

But soon, all the dragons halted their movements.

"Little one, congratulations."

Lan Ji came to Wang Xu’s side, smiling, "You’ve successfully enslaved ten golden dragons, meeting Emperor Xuanlong’s condition; you are qualified to receive the treasure he left behind."

Wang Xu’s eyes burned passionately.

Finally, the Great Emperor’s Treasure was within reach!

For this Great Emperor’s Treasure, Wang Xu had endured countless hardships, faced numerous challenges, and nearly lost his life. Fortunately, all his efforts were rewarded, and Wang Xu was naturally ecstatic! (To be continued.
