Yun Chuan held his breath and focused his mind, continuously swimming downward. The Five Elements circulated within his body, sustaining themselves. This allowed him to survive underwater without needing to breathe. If it were anyone else, they probably would not last long before having to leave this place and return to the surface.
He did not know how much farther he had swum downward.
The scenery before his eyes gradually began to show faint glimmers of crimson and icy blue light.
The surrounding environment also suddenly became extremely spacious, transforming from a narrow vertical tunnel into an incomparably vast underground cavern.
Yun Chuan's spirit was lifted, and he continued diving for a short while longer. Finally, he clearly saw the true source of the light.
It turned out to be two dragon-shaped phantom figures formed purely of energy. Each was less than ten meters long, yet the layered dragon scales, crystal-clear dragon horns, and the flowing, agile dragon whiskers… every detail that a dragon should possess was present in both of them without the slightest omission.
The two dragon phantoms swam slowly like fish in this dark cavern where no sunlight reached. Only where they passed did faint, hazy light—either red or blue—appear…
At this moment, the two dragon-shaped phantoms were swimming directly beneath Yun Chuan, illuminating part of the scene at the bottom of the cavern—the sight was a vast stretch of towering rock formations, shaped like overlapping mountain ridges. But upon careful observation, one could discover that this seemed to be the spine of a colossal beast, with jagged, ferocious bone spines rising from it like serrated blades.
As the two dragon phantoms continued to move, Yun Chuan clearly saw the layered scales covering the giant beast's body, and through their undulations, he could glimpse the explosive muscular lines beneath them.
As his gaze shifted, he gradually saw the full appearance of the colossal beast—it was actually two giant dragons, each more than several hundred meters long!
They had long lost all signs of life, desolate like two ancient stone statues passed down from primordial times, yet they still retained a suffocating, overwhelming aura. A crushing pressure surged forward like a tidal wave.
In Yun Chuan's perception, this pressure had already far surpassed the limits of soul masters. Compared to the Spirit Hall's Ultimate Douluo Qian Daoliu, it was countless times stronger! Even after having been dead for many years, the residual aura was still so terrifying—one could imagine how powerful these two dragon corpses had been in life.
But when Yun Chuan thought about the identities of these two dragon corpses, he felt it was only natural. After all, having read the original work, he knew that these two dragon corpses were the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King, two of the ancient Dragon God's nine offspring. In terms of divine rank, they were both First-Class Gods. Moreover, as pure-blooded dragons, they possessed extraordinary talent. Having such terrifying might was not strange at all.
"So this is an ancient divine beast… how terrifying! Just the residual power left in their corpses after death is enough to create such a blessed land that nurtures countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures." Yun Chuan exclaimed in awe and subconsciously stepped forward to observe more closely. He dared to swear on his own integrity that he was only looking—just paying his respects to the remains of ancient divine beasts. He definitely was not trying to see whether there were soul bones or anything like that.
However, before he could even move forward half a step, the two dragon phantoms that had previously coexisted peacefully with him suddenly seemed to sense some kind of provocation.
Whoosh!
Their illusory bodies instantly erupted with dazzling, brilliant light. Their swimming speed abruptly increased, and the two dragon phantoms surged forward with overwhelming dragon might.
Boom! Boom!
From the mouth of the crimson dragon phantom, a blazing,裂开 earth-shattering pillar of magma shot out. In front of the icy-blue dragon phantom, a violent vortex wrapped in razor-sharp ice shards condensed. Together, they attacked the intruder, Yun Chuan.
Yun Chuan was shocked, because these two beings, which looked like not very powerful energy bodies, actually erupted with at least Title Douluo-level strength in an instant—perhaps even stronger!
Everything happened too quickly.
He had never expected that these two entities, clearly just remnants of the ancient Dragon Kings' souls, would still retain such ferocious attacking instincts. Toward him, this sudden intruder, they launched an attack without hesitation.
"Five Elements Body Protection!"
Yun Chuan could only instinctively mobilize the power of the Five Elements within his body. Just as five-colored light began to radiate from his body, he was directly struck by the two attacks—one icy and one scorching.
Boom!
The surrounding spring water churned violently, as if an underwater torpedo had been detonated.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Yun Chuan had protected himself with the Five Elements light. Although the impact force from the two attacks blasted him straight into the cavern wall behind him, his body did not suffer any real damage. His current physique had long surpassed the imagination of ordinary Title Douluo.
However, even though he was not injured, the violent impact still left him dizzy. His body slammed into the cavern wall, smashing out a large hole. Pressed against the wall, Yun Chuan watched the two dragon souls continue their aggressive advance, and he could not help but be startled. He knew he had been careless, blinded by greed. He had never considered that there might be danger here.
"According to the original work, at this point in time, these two dragon souls shouldn't yet possess the power to manifest, right? It seems the original work cannot be fully trusted. After all, this is a real world, not something that can be explained clearly in a few lines of a novel."
"This time, I really was careless!"
Yun Chuan began to reflect on himself. Then, seeing the two dragon souls about to launch another attack, he hurriedly summoned his other martial soul.
In his hand, a dark-gray small hammer appeared.
This hammer was entirely a hazy, chaotic gray color. Compared with the previous golden hammer that was filled with lightning and flames, it appeared simple and unadorned. But the aura it emitted was undoubtedly countless times more terrifying!
When Yun Chuan grasped his brand-new Clear Sky Hammer, the entire cavern suddenly trembled. Invisible waves spread out from the hammer body. The terrifying might forcibly pushed away the surrounding spring water that was both icy and scorching. In an instant, the entire cavern was emptied, and all the spring water vanished without a trace.
And after losing the surrounding spring water, the two dragon souls that had been advancing fiercely suddenly froze. Then they began twisting and struggling in place, like two drowning fish—or rather, fish deprived of oxygen.
"So that's how it is. I was wondering how mere dragon souls could still possess such powerful strength. It turns out they can freely use the power contained in the surrounding spring water. No wonder they were so strong!" Seeing this, Yun Chuan suddenly understood.
At this moment, all the spring water in the cavern had been naturally repelled by the power emitted from the Clear Sky Hammer, clearing out an empty space. Including the two dragon souls and the two dragon corpses, everything was completely exposed to the air.
And once the two dragon souls lost the spring water and could no longer draw power from it, they naturally no longer posed a threat to him.
"I almost capsized in the gutter and fell into your trap." Looking at the two dragon souls struggling on the verge of collapse under the power fluctuations of the hammer, Yun Chuan felt lingering fear. In that situation just now, if it had been any other Title Douluo, facing the attacks launched by the two dragon souls, the outcome would have been nothing but death.
"How should I deal with these two remnant souls?" Yun Chuan looked at the two powerless dragon souls and began to think. After all, these were remnants of divine-level giant dragons. There must be other uses for them.
"Forget it, I'll deal with the remnant souls later. Right now, the most urgent matter is…" Yun Chuan shook his head and turned his gaze toward the two dragon corpses at the bottom of the cavern, each as huge as a mountain. A blazing light suddenly erupted in his eyes.
Divine-level soul bones, here I come!
