2201 The Infernal Dragon Energy’s Influence, Which One Do You Like, Feel Free to Pick Any of Them

Only silence filled the starry space.

Countless dragons looked at the white-robed figure with deep fear in their eyes. That person was no longer a mere human to them.

He was nothing short of a demon!

"Ha! Your fear of me shall become your greatest protection, and I suggest you cling onto it tightly. Your chances of surviving before the likes of me will increase by doing so." Chu Kuangren sneered.

However, the dragons could not retort his sarcasm.

They could not even move because of the fear in their hearts.

As such, they could only watch as Chu Kuangren stepped into the Dragon Soul World, a sacred place regarded by all dragons where no outsiders were allowed to enter.

All those dragons felt ashamed of themselves.

"That b*stard!"

"Chu Kuangren! How dare he!"

After Chu Kuangren left, some of the dragons suppressed their fear and roared crazily. The other dragons were also furious.

They were from the Hongmeng Dragon Tribe, one of the strongest in the Great Hongmeng Universe, yet they were bullied by a human in their territory.

Where was the justice in that?

"Just you wait, Chu Kuangren! I shall wait and see how you'll escape when the Dragon Tribe's elite forces arrive! This Dragon Tomb will certainly be his burial ground!"

Some of the dragons said glumly.

Although Chu Kuangren was powerful, he was in the Dragon Tombs.

'This is the Dragon Tribe's territory. No matter how powerful Chu Kuangren is, he's just one person! How could he survive against thousands upon thousands of dragons? How could he?'

Besides, they had heard that a Monarch dragon was preparing to come here.

When that time came, his fated death would be sealed!

The dragons were eagerly waiting for Chu Kuangren's life to end.

…

Chu Kuangren and Long Shuijing had just entered the Dragon Soul World.

When Chu Kuangren saw the countless dragon souls hovering before him, he closed his eyes. He tried to sense whatever it was that was reacting with the Infernal Dragon energy inside his body.

"Have you found it?" Long Shuijing asked.

She knew Chu Kuangren had been searching for something.

"The dragon soul auras here are too jumbled up. What I'm looking for is hidden somewhere within them, which makes it hard for me to trace its location," said Chu Kuangren.

Then, he looked at the dragon souls in his surroundings and pondered.

Could it be that the thing resonating with him was a dragon soul too?

At that thought, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

Since he could not find the source, he might as well let it come to him instead!

"Let's try this!" Chu Kuangren chuckled. 

He rose into the air, releasing an incredibly domineering dragon aura from his body that caused the surroundings to tremble.

Somewhere far away, Heilong Ya was working hard to resonate with the Monarch-level Black Dragon soul.

After spending tremendous effort, that dragon soul finally acknowledged him. It soared into the sky and swooped toward him, preparing to pass on its inheritance.

Heilong Ya was overjoyed.

He opened his arms wide, preparing to accept the dragon's soul.

However, a burst of dragon aura suddenly erupted in the distance.

That dragon soul sensed something and immediately stopped. It turned its head to the source of that dragon aura and flew toward that direction.

Heilong Ya froze.

The inheritance he had worked so hard on was suddenly gone.

He had no idea what was happening. 

He looked toward the dragon aura in the distance with an ice-cold gaze. "I must find out who ruined all my efforts!"

It was as if the bird he caught had flown away.

Anyone would be displeased if it happened to them.

Moreover, other than being a Black Dragon's soul, it was also a Monarch dragon soul's inheritance!

The instant that domineering dragon aura appeared, the entire Dragon Soul World trembled. As if they were summoned by something, countless dragon souls dashed across the skies like rays of light, heading toward the source of that dragon aura.

Every dragon in the Dragon Soul World was dumbfounded.

"What… What is happening?"

"What is going on?"

"These dragon souls did not even respond to us when we tried to make contact with them. Why are they dashing toward that direction all of a sudden?"

"By the heavens…"

Every dragon was shocked.

Like the dragon souls, many dragons also headed in that direction.

Many of them did not look pleased.

Similar to Heilong Ya, they were also about to receive the dragon souls' inheritances. However, because of that dragon aura's sudden appearance, all the dragon souls fled from them.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren stood in the air. This time, countless dragon souls were circling him like planets around a star, surrounding him at the center. Waves of dragon roars echoed in the sky.

It was as if thousands of dragons were worshiping and gracing his presence.

Long Shuijing was stunned when she saw what was happening.

"Chu Kuangren, how are you doing all of this?"

She knew Chu Kuangren could not be understood by conventional means.

However, the scene before her eyes was simply unbelievable. Millions upon millions of dragon souls were now surrounding Chu Kuangren.

Although they were just dragon souls, Long Shuijing could sense the intention to submit from all of them.

"What… What is this?"

Soon, some of the dragons arrived at the scene. Upon seeing Chu Kuangren surrounded by countless dragon souls, they were shocked.

"Who the hell is he?"

"Look at the respectful gestures of those countless dragons. Is he a Dragon King?"

"Impossible. Judging from his aura, he's just a human."

More and more dragons arrived at the scene.

When they saw what was happening, they were shocked too.

Especially when they saw dozens of Monarch-level dragon souls circling near Chu Kuangren in a submissive and obedient manner, they could not believe their eyes. 

'To think even the Monarch-level dragon souls are behaving with such respect…'

'Is this person some sort of peerless ruler amongst the dragons?'

'He's just a mere human!'

"H-He's Chu Kuangren!"

Suddenly, a dragon who recognized Chu Kuangren exclaimed with shock.

Chu Kuangren was the Dragon Tribe's enemy.

However, seeing the souls of their dragon ancestors now circling him with such obedience and reverence shattered their worldview.

"Impossible."

"Chu Kuangren, what have you done?"

A Grand Dao dragon could not stand it and charged toward Chu Kuangren. His dragon qi surged as he questioned Chu Kuangren.

The countless dragon souls looked at him as though they could sense the hostility in him and released a massive burst of dragon aura.

"Boom!"

That dragon was instantly slammed into the ground, immobilized.

Horror filled his eyes.

'Are these heroic dragon souls protecting Chu Kuangren?'

'They're protecting the Dragon Tribe's enemy!'

'Is there anything more ridiculous than this in the entire world?'

Meanwhile, high in the air, Chu Kuangren looked at the countless dragon souls before him and pondered.

He had a very peculiar feeling that he could command those dragon souls.

'Is it because of the Infernal Dragon's power inside me?'

'Interesting.'

However, he did not find the source of that feeling among those dragon souls. Even the Monarch-level dragon souls did not feel as special to him.

"My King!"

"Sect Leader!"

Shang Honghua, Elder Dragon Huang, and the others had rushed over upon sensing Chu Kuangren's aura. They, too, were stunned to see what was happening.

"Oh, it's you, Honghua. I've finally found you guys."

Chu Kuangren looked at Shang Honghua and the others with a smile.

The words that came from his mouth right after dumbfounded every dragon at the scene.

Chu Kuangren merely pointed at the dragon souls before him and said to Shang Honghua, "Which dragon soul do you like? Feel free to pick any of them."
