Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 221: Origin of the Slaying Saber

"The person named Sima Jinchi is a person who Yue Zhengan seems to have cared for a lot. From the reports, he was considered invincible under the Title Douluo stage with his saber martial soul and his suppression. He would have been even stronger, but it seems he couldn't break through into the Title Douluo stage for years."Said Zhang Huanyun as he refers to the file on Sima Jinchi.

"I think I have heard about him, the ace of the Southern Army Corps. From what I heard, he isn't very liked in the place or more specifically he is feared."Said Cao Dezhi.

"Well, either way, the reports showed him kneeling on the floor of the canteen before transforming into a saber. Then that saber shot up through the roof and into the sky." Said Zhang Huanyun with a sigh.

It wasn't hard for them to figure out what happened to the Saber after Zang Xin telling them about it and where the saber came from.

"What should we do?" Questioned Cao Dezhi with his brows furrowing.

"What can we do? It's not like we can tell him to not use the weapon."Said Zhang Huanyun with a shake of his head.

"Not only would he not listen but that weapon may be needed when he fights Surtr." Said Yun Ming causing both of the men to nod their heads.

They didn't think just because it was turned into a spear, that no one would not get suspicious. As to anyone, that spear may have a similar origin to the saber that Sima Jinichi turned into, just from the seven-colored radiance.

"So then, what should we do?" Questioned Zhang Huanyun.

"I will go talk to Tang Wulin to see if he knew about this. After that, we will decide on what to do from there."Said Yun Ming causing both of them to nod their heads.

Tang Wulin sat into a lotus position inside of his room as he started directing the abyssal energy towards both his God Slayer and Devil Slayer.

Similar to his God Slayer, the Devil Slayer began to greedily absorb the glowing white halo essence.

As these two arts were absorbing the essence, Tang Wulin started to feel the strength of both of them increasing and bursting forward.

'These abyssal creatures really are the best.' Thought Tang Wulin in delight.

"What are you going to do now?" Zeref's voice rang out as he appeared next to Tang Wulin.

"The same as before, hopefully, an abyssal tide bigger than the last one appears." Said Tang Wulin causing Zeref to nod his head.

"Have you made any progress with your spiritual domain?" Questioned Zeref.

"A little bit but not too sure on what to make of it." Said Tang Wulin causing Zeref to arch a brow but he didn't say anything.

"Oh? You're working a spiritual domain."Sleipnir's gentle voice rang out causing Zeref to blink his eyes.

"You have recovered?" Questioned Zeref.

"We have." Said Yggdrasil as she appeared on top of Tang Wulin's shoulder.

"Mind filling us in on what has happened?" Questioned Sleipnir causing Zeref to nod his head.

Zeref retold everything that has happened since the duo went asleep, from them making there a way to the Endless Mountain.

To them killing the abyssal creatures and Tang Wulin being able to absorb them with his glittering spear.

"You can absorb them?" Questioned Sleipnir in shock with her shock becoming even greater as Tang Wulin nodded his head.

"Well, it should be expected from a Divine Weapon, specifically the one from the Golden Dragon King." Said Yggdrasil causing all of them to blink their eyes.

"The Golden Dragon Spear is from the Golden Dragon King?" Questioned Tang Wulin causing Yggdrasil to giggle.

He always had his suspicions but with Yggdrasil's words, it was basically confirmation. As he knew before was that it was gifted to him by Tang Wutong.

"Why don't you ask that old man."

"You mean Old Tang?" Questioned Tang Wulin.

"She is right, the spear was made from one of its ribs." Old Tang's voice rang out causing all of them to fall silent.

"Either way, with this spear. We can get rid of one of the threats that could end up destroying the plane."Said Sleipnir with her glittering eyes shining in delight.

"I forget you mention that the plane had more than one threat that could end up destroying it."Muttered Zeref with Tang Wulin nodding.

It was then there was a knock on his door causing all of them to fade away. He moved towards the door and opening it up to see Yun Ming.

"Tell me something, do you know where your spear came from?" Questioned Yun Ming.

"What do you mean?"

"Go through this." Said Yun Ming as he passed the same files and spiritual device that was given to him.

It only took a few seconds before Tang Wulin saw and understand what Yun Ming meant. As on the device, he saw the Dragon Slaying Saber shining brilliantly in a room.

"Where did you-"

"From the Southern Army. The commander over there has filed a report saying one of his men had turned into a saber before it ran away."Said Yun Ming causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

'So that's where the Dragon Slaying Saber came from.' Thought Tang Wulin.

"Did you know about this?" Questioned Yun Ming causing Tang Wulin to shake his head.

"I only knew something was calling out to me."

"I see." Mutter Yun Ming with a grim expression.

'Holy Dragon King, do you know why happened?' Thought Tang Wulin causing the jeweled bracelet on his wrist to lit up.

"I do father. As recently I have been sorting through the memories of the saber and I was able to figure out its condition since it was tossed into this plane."Said the Holy Dragon King causing Tang Wulin to inwardly nods his head.

"Do you want me to inform the man in front of us too?" Questioned the Holy Dragon King.

'Go ahead, it will save me time and effort.' Thought Tang Wulin before waving his hand causing Yun Ming to shift his gaze to him.

"What?"

"We're going to get an explanation in the next few seconds, so pay attention." Said Tang Wulin causing Yun Ming to furrow his brows.

"What do you mean-"

But before Yun Ming could finish his sentence, golden-white lights began to erupt from around Tang Wulin's wrist.

The lights began to revolve all-around Tang Wulin before they started to condense into a figure that was big enough to fit into the room.

'Is that a dragon?' Thought Yun Ming as he slightly narrowed his eyes but made no movement to summon his spear.

The Holy Dragon King moved his gaze over Tang Wulin, staring at him with boundless love and affection before moving towards Yun Ming.

'Strong.' Thought Yun Ming as he felt a terrifying pressure just from the gaze of the dragon before him.

"For you all to understand what exactly happened to the one you know as Sima Jinchi. You both must understand he wasn't a human."Said the Holy Dragon King causing Tang Wulin and Yun Ming to look in astonishment.

"Are you saying he was a spirit beast?" Questioned Yun Ming but the Holy Dragon King shook his head.

"Sima Jinchi isn't a Spirit Beast but he has a close relationship with the Dragon Clan. For he was the Dragon Slayer Saber or now knows as the Dragon Slayer Spear."Said The Holy Dragon King causing even Tang Wulin to be surprised.

"I don't understand? What do you mean he is the Dragon Slaying Saber? I knew his martial soul was the Dragon Slayer Saber but-"

"Sima Jinchi is the Dragon Slayer Saber that was used to enforce the laws of the Dragon Clan. He is that divine weapon that has bathed in the blood of countless divine dragons. The weapon that was forged from the horn of the Dragon God, that was able to gain its own will."Said the Holy Dragon King with pride in his voice, yet a hint of sadness could be seen in his eyes.

'What!' Thought Yun Ming shock as he slowly trembled.

There were many reasons why he was trembling, from the mention of the ancient and power Dragon Clan. To the fact that the Dragon Slayer Saber was a divine weapon, that was used to slay countless divine dragons.

Or just the simple fact that it was made from the body of a God.

"...You said it gained its own will. How?"Questioned Tang Wulin.

"The Dragon Slayer Saber used its own power after a long slumber to take the form of an orphan, which was known as the Sima Jinchi. From there it has been living its life as a human, with its strength increasing, until it reached the blockage of a Title Douluo. Unless the one Sima Jinchi met either father or the Silver Dragon King, then he would have continued to be below the Title Douluo rank."Said the Holy Dragon King

"It was through the plane and father aura that things changed for Sima Jinchi. As when that streak of light hit him, he not only regains his dormant memories but his purpose. As he went back towards his King."Said the Holy Dragon King causing Yun Ming and Tang Wulin to go silent.

The Holy Dragon King didn't say anything more as he gave Tang Wulin one more loving gaze before dispersing into lights.

In the room, the only thing that was left was Tang Wulin and Yun Ming.

"...So, you have affiliations with the Dragon Clan?"Questioned Yun Ming with his lips twitching causing Tang Wulin to shrug his shoulder.

"They keep calling me there father. So I guess."Said Tang Wulin causing Yun Ming to massage his temples.

'Right... They keep calling him their father.' Thought Yun Ming before his expression changed.

As he began to realize that the last person they called as there father was the Dragon God. A literal god that was the leader of the Dragon Clan, the most powerful clan in the ancient eras.

"Don't tell me you are his reincarnation?" Questioned Yun Ming.

"I'm not." Said Tang Wulin with a roll of his eyes causing Yun Ming lips to twitch.

'Yet that dragon kept calling you father.'

"Anyway, since I know what happened to Simi Jinchi. It can't be helped, although I don't know what to tell the Southern Army Corps."Mutter Yun Ming with a sigh.

Tang Wulin didn't say anything as he watched Yun Ming thinking. It was only after a few minutes before Yun Ming's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face.

'I know what to do.'

"Alright, I will go. I will tell Cao Dezhi and Zhang Huanyun what I heard today."Said Yun Ming causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

"Any luck on your spiritual domain?" Questioned Yun Ming causing Tang Wulin to shake his head.

"I only made a bit of progress." Said Tang Wulin causing Yun Ming to nod his head, although inwardly he felt shocked.

As he didn't expect for Tang Wulin to start making progress so soon. Yet he didn't mind this but encourage this growth as he left the room.

'Back to training.'
