The entrance of the Dragon Soul was like swallowing a tough piece of meat full of tendons; it couldn't be chewed, and the throat felt uncomfortable.
Yet Mo Hua's current divine thought had already reached Core Formation, completing the pure golden Tao transformation, vastly different from the divine sense of ordinary cultivators.
Even compared to before, there has been an advancement.
The tyrannical Dragon Power rampaged within his body.
Mo Hua manipulated the pure golden origin, transforming it into powerful telekinesis, like a millstone, grinding down the Dragon Soul bit by bit, swallowing it into his stomach.
A potent, scorching force burnt through his throat.
The mighty Dragon Soul traversed all over his body.
The defiant divine thought was like a tyrannical flood dragon, rampaging within, surging left and right.
Mo Hua simply activated the Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue, along with formations, spells, and pure golden divine power, to annihilate the dragon thought within his body.
For a moment, his divine body shimmered with pure gold, dazzlingly bright, making it impossible to look directly at.
The powerful Dragon Soul also emitted a terrifying pressure, causing the scalps of the Great Wilderness' nobility in the grand hall to tingle.
After an unknown period, the aura of the Dragon Soul disappeared. Mo Hua opened his eyes, smacked his lips, savoring the moment, and murmured softly:
"No taste..."
But it was very filling.
Mo Hua felt a breath of dragon energy lodged in his chest and couldn't help but burp.
This burp, sounding like thunder and carrying a dragon roar, reverberated around the Dragon Hall.
Inside the Dragon Hall, all the descendants of the Great Wilderness, who bowed in submission, were utterly shocked and fearfully exclaimed:
"Demon... Demon God!"
"It actually... killed the Dragon Emperor, dismembered the Dragon Emperor, and then... 'ate' him?!"
"Treachery!"
"The Dragon Emperor... has fallen?!"
"This is the calamity of the Great Wilderness!"
"Who on earth brought in this heinous Little Demon God?!"
...
Within the Dragon Hall, voices were filled with terror and chaotic unrest.
Mo Hua, annoyed by the commotion, turned his head, looked at these ministers blessed by the Dragon Vein, some with dragon scales, others with dragon claws or dragon whiskers, only licking his lips and showing a wicked smile, which terrified all the civil and military generals, scaring them like monkeys fleeing a fallen tree, escaping in all directions.
Yet among the scattering crowd, one person stood alone, eyes blank, standing incredulously in place.
This person was half-covered in dragon bones, eyes muddled, face aged.
This face was familiar to Mo Hua.
He took a step forward, a flash of golden light, arriving before this person from the dragon platform, "You lured me here?"
The old man let out a bitter smile, "Has the Little Divine Venerable figured it out?"
Mo Hua looked at him curiously, slowly asking: "Weren't you supposed to have died inside the Divine Temple, Second Elder...?"
The elder in the Dragon Hall was the Second Elder of the Demon Sect.
He was also the guide at the solitary mountain tomb for Shen Tuao, ultimately sacrificing his life to temporarily seal the evil embryo, becoming one with the dragon bones.
Mo Hua never imagined that the person who lured him into the Dragon Hall would turn out to be the Second Elder.
The Second Elder's expression was full of bitterness as he explained:
"For those who are devoted to the Great Wilderness, sacrificing their lives even unto death, a remnant soul will enter the Dragon Hall, joining the Dragon Rank, alongside the Dragon Emperor of the Great Wilderness, eternally immortal..."
Of course, now this "eternally immortal" Dragon Emperor had already been swallowed by Mo Hua.
This absurdity, the Second Elder still found hard to believe.
Within the nightmare of the evil embryo, his remaining divine soul witnessed the battle between Mo Hua and the evil embryo.
He anticipated Mo Hua to be remarkably strong.
Yet he never expected that in reality, this seemingly clever Foundation Establishment Junior Formation master would be so... shockingly powerful in the Divine Thought World.
The laws of the Dragon Hall couldn't subdue him, nor could the mighty dragon's pressure overwhelm him.
The formidable dragon general was killed by him with a single punch.
The honored Dragon Emperor was crushed to death by him with a flip of his hand.
Even the dragon soul of the Great Wilderness could be "swallowed" by him.
This indeed was...
"Eating" the dragon.
The Second Elder felt a chill rise from the heart, spreading through his limbs, making his entire body tremble uncontrollably.
An "horrifying" thought emerged in his mind...
"Joining the Dragon Rank, eternally immortal..." Mo Hua shook his head.
Being a living emperor, experiencing luxury wasn't enough; even in death, craving such good fortune.
He again stared at the Second Elder, "Why lure me here?"
The Second Elder's eyelids twitched, collecting his thoughts, lowered his head respectfully, saying:
"During the battle at the Gushan Temple, I witnessed the Little Divine Venerable matching the evil embryo, knowing your divine thought is extraordinary, thus wanting to offer you a chance to learn the inheritance of the Great Wilderness."
"Not that simple, is it?" Mo Hua's gaze was profound.
"Yes..." The Second Elder was stared at by Mo Hua, feeling a chill down his back, stammering, "The Dragon Hall of the Great Wilderness is a Taoist Field for inheritance. According to the rules of the Dragon Hall, desiring the heritage of the Great Wilderness requires bowing before the Dragon Emperor to receive his blessing."
"And with the act of bowing before the Dragon Emperor...
The Second Elder paused, bracing himself and continued, "You would foster a heart of allegiance, becoming a loyal arm of the Great Wilderness henceforth."
Though called an arm, it was essentially akin to a "servant".
Mo Hua's gaze darkened slightly, "So, not only have you offered me an opportunity, but also a trap, were you scheming against me?"
The Second Elder's voice trembled slightly, "Yes..."
Mo Hua looked at him with a smirk, "You dare reveal the truth to me, aren't you afraid I'll crush you?"
The Second Elder closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then bitterly said:
"This remnant soul survives thanks to the Great Wilderness Dragon Hall, and this Great Wilderness Dragon Hall relies on the Dragon Emperor as its foundation."
"Now the Dragon Emperor is dead, and the Dragon Soul... is gone. Without a master, we remnant souls will soon dissipate...
