Douluo: I’m Cultivating Immortality, and I’m Still a Titled Douluo?

Faced with Gu Yuena's question, Lu Yunzhou's lips curved into a subtle smile. As the expression deepened on his face, he responded calmly, his tone carrying a commanding weight:

"Cooperation? That's simple."

"I…want the entirety of Dragon Valley under my control."

"In other words, I require the Mountain Dragon King, Tai An, to offer himself in sacrifice—along with the remains of all dragons here."

"In return, I will assist you, Gu Yuena, in obtaining the Golden Dragon King's primal bloodline, helping you ascend as the Dragon God… the new Dragon God!"

As Lu Yunzhou's words fell, not only did Tai An freeze in shock, but even Gu Yuena's eyes widened in disbelief.

Sacrifice Tai An? Along with all the dragon corpses? And in exchange, help her become the new Dragon God?

Was Lu Yunzhou joking?

Recalling his extraordinary strength and unparalleled methods, Gu Yuena couldn't help but confirm to herself that he indeed possessed the capability to achieve such a feat. Her gaze sharpened, and a serious expression replaced her earlier disbelief. After a moment's consideration, she asked tentatively:

"Are you… certain?"

Her tone revealed her intrigue. She desperately wanted to understand what grand plan Lu Yunzhou was concocting to necessitate such extreme demands. Yet, despite her speculation, she could not fathom his true intentions. Understanding this, Gu Yuena chose to stop overthinking.

"Do you think I'm joking with you?" Lu Yunzhou responded confidently, his tone steady. Without waiting for her reply, he continued:

"When I was in the early Foundation Establishment stage, I could suppress those at half a Golden Core level. Upon reaching the early Golden Core stage, I could slay opponents at the late Golden Core stage. Now, having entered the late Golden Core stage, I am invincible within the Golden Core realm."

"And within that so-called God Realm, there isn't a single Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Obtaining the Golden Dragon King's primal power will pose no challenge to me."

After finishing his declaration, Lu Yunzhou's piercing gaze shifted from Gu Yuena to Tai An. Fixing his eyes firmly on the Mountain Dragon King, his tone turned unwavering and resolute:

"Without the Dragon God's Heart, you lack an endless source of energy. This means you'll soon have to leave the Douluo Continent to seek a new sanctuary elsewhere."

"But wouldn't that be unnecessarily troublesome?"

"Instead, why not offer yourself in sacrifice? Surrender your body, blood, attributes, and soul to me. In doing so, you will aid me in achieving greater heights while also ensuring the Dragon Clan witnesses the rise of a new Dragon God—a new era of glory. What do you say?"

Lu Yunzhou's reasoning was irrefutable. Without the Dragon God's Heart, Tai An no longer had access to the vital replenishment of dragon energy. Remaining on the Douluo Continent would bring him nothing but harm—possibly even the risk of perishing entirely.

Finding a suitable sanctuary elsewhere would be an arduous task. Thus, sacrificing himself to Lu Yunzhou to elevate his power while ushering in a new Dragon God for the Dragon Clan seemed like the most logical and beneficial choice.

After a long moment of deliberation, Tai An, understanding the profound implications of this decision, finally gave his answer. With solemn respect, he said:

"Tai An is willing to aid you, my lord, in reaching even greater heights!"

With those words, before Gu Yuena could interject, Tai An made his choice—sacrifice.

"The Dragon Clan will remember you forever," Lu Yunzhou declared, his voice echoing with a weight of finality.

Staring at the surface of Mountain Dragon King Tai An's body, which glimmered with a red radiance and exuded an aura as vast and steady as the ocean, Gu Yuena murmured softly to herself. The mighty soul power and spiritual power flowing out of him were transforming into an overwhelming torrent of heavenly energy, cascading around him in an awe-inspiring display.

Her heart was a tumultuous mixture of gratitude and unwillingness.

The unwillingness stemmed from the dragon clan's current plight. Mountain Dragon King Tai An had to sacrifice himself to aid Lu Yunzhou in forging a new and glorious Dragon God. Yet, she, Gu Yuena, could only stand by as an onlooker.

The gratitude, however, came from the profound respect she held for Mountain Dragon King Tai An's selfless act—a sacrifice made for the greater good of the dragon clan.

Feeling Mountain Dragon King Tai An's boundless strength surging into him, Lu Yunzhou quickly spoke in a firm voice:

"Gu Yuena, leave this place!"

Without any hesitation, Lu Yunzhou retrieved the Dragon God's Heart and swallowed it in one fluid motion.

Immediately, he unleashed his technique, Nine Breaths Vital Essence, madly absorbing the heavenly energy, elemental forces, and vitality pouring into him. Once this was done, his gaze shifted to the skeletal remains and scattered dragon souls littering the ground.

Fixing his eyes on the remnants of countless dragons, Lu Yunzhou's voice rang out with a thunderous determination:

"Today, you shall assist me in forging the Myriad Dragons Physique! In the future, I will lead the dragon clan back to its pinnacle—what say you?!"

His voice reverberated like thunder in a spring storm, roaring through the heavens and piercing into the very souls of the long-dead dragons. This resounding declaration was not only heard by those whose spirits lingered but also seared directly into their lingering consciousness.

Before long, a deafening dragon roar split the silence.

In a flash, a black beam of light shot from the distance, moving faster than the eye could follow, and surged into Lu Yunzhou's body.

Moments later, another dragon roar echoed, followed by another beam of light, and another.

One by one, countless beams of light streamed into Lu Yunzhou's body.

With the Dragon God's Heart as the core, Mountain Dragon King Tai An's stabilizing energy as the foundation, and the contributions of the countless dragon spirits as support, Lu Yunzhou began forging the ultimate spirit physique—the Myriad Dragons Physique!

From afar, Gu Yuena could hardly believe what she was witnessing.

This insufferable man, Lu Yunzhou, had already taken the power of Mountain Dragon King Tai An and the Dragon God's Heart, and now… Now, he sought to ascend even further with the strength of the myriad dragons!

In that instant, Gu Yuena's understanding of Lu Yunzhou's ambition and domineering nature reached an entirely new level.

Taking a deep breath to steady herself, she quickly stepped through the black hole—or rather, the spatial wormhole—and left the Dragon Valley.

The Dragon Valley had now become a place of incredible peril, wholly dominated by Lu Yunzhou as he refined and forged his physique. Remaining here was far too dangerous.

Even for someone as powerful as Gu Yuena, someone who's comparable to a Golden Core stage cultivator, staying in this place of rampant energy could very well result in her death. Thus, she had no choice but to leave this treacherous land.

One dragon, ten dragons, a hundred dragons, a thousand dragons—ten thousand dragons!

When the sacrifices of ten thousand dragon spirits were complete, Lu Yunzhou finally forged the supreme physique he had longed for—the Myriad Dragons Physique.

At the same time, his transformation from a mortal body into a spiritual physique caused his cultivation base to make a substantial leap forward.

As of this moment, Lu Yunzhou had reached the pinnacle of the Golden Core stage, achieving perfection!
