Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 224 I'll burn you to death!

After Princess Jiujiu finished releasing her martial spirit, the star crown on her head shone brightly, and at the same time, her third spirit ring lit up, and a strong golden beam of light shot into the sky!

The interior of this golden pillar of light was entirely composed of golden mist, with starlight swirling and rising within it, creating a truly bizarre sight. However, judging solely from its appearance, it was impossible to determine the exact function of this soul skill.

On Shrek's side, Ma Xiaotao took the lead, rushing out in a burst of flames, with Bei Bei and Chen Zifeng following closely on either side of her.

Behind them, Ling Luochen and Huo Yuhao were some distance away from the three main attackers. Ling Luochen's ice staff had already appeared in his hand. He advanced forward while raising it high above his head. His fourth spirit ring flashed slightly as he whispered, "Ice Mist Cold!"

The next moment, the surrounding temperature dropped instantly, and a thick ice fog quickly spread out, enveloping the remaining four people except for the three-person assault team, their figures completely hidden in the ice fog.

Then, the icy mist expanded outwards at an astonishing speed, forming a huge arc that subtly clamped down on the opponent.

Finally, Ning Tian's support accurately landed on everyone.

Meanwhile, the golden mist emanating from Princess Jiujiu's body also rapidly spread, enveloping the other six members of their team. Instantly, every member of the Star Luo team was covered in a layer of gold, and the golden halo around Princess Jiujiu's body did not dissipate; starlight continued to surge forth from her star crown.

Ma Xiaotao had the highest cultivation level and was naturally the fastest. In a short moment, she rushed to the front of the enemy formation. Blazing phoenix flames shot into the sky, her huge phoenix wings spread out, and a stream of phoenix fire shot out towards the Soul King directly in front of her.

This Soul King is named Huang Heyun. Being able to stand at the front, he is naturally a powerful offensive Soul Master. Before Princess Jiujiu appeared, he had always been the captain of the Star Luo Royal Academy team.

Huang Heyun's martial spirit was also quite powerful. With the release of his martial spirit, a dense black aura swirled around his body. His physique swelled dramatically, his solid muscles bulged, and a "king" character, similar to that of the White Tiger martial spirit, appeared on his forehead. However, unlike the White Tiger martial spirit, the fur on his body was neither white nor the yellow of a typical tiger, but pure black!

The Dark Demon Tiger—that's his martial soul. It possesses rare dark attributes, but he's not an evil soul master. The powerful dark energy grants him soul master talent far exceeding that of ordinary people, not much different from Dai Yueheng. Well, of course, this refers to Dai Yueheng before things went awry.

At this moment, his body was not simply black, but also covered by a layer of golden mist emanating from behind. The dense golden mist merged with his black soul power, without any clash between light and darkness. Instead, it rendered his soul power into a dark gold color with specks of starlight, which looked quite peculiar.

Facing Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Fire Line, a high-level Soul Emperor, Huang Heyun roared to the sky, showing no fear whatsoever. He charged forward without hesitation, throwing a punch. His first Soul Ring shone with yellow light, and a dark golden semi-circular light shield with a diameter of over one meter burst forth in the air.

"First Soul Skill: Dark Wave!"

"Sizzle—" With a sharp explosion, sparks flew everywhere, and the Phoenix Fire Line failed to penetrate the light barrier even a fraction of an inch, being blocked head-on!

This scene made Ma Xiaotao pause for a moment, and the dark wave, which had been scorched red by the Phoenix Fire Line, arrived in front of her in the next instant.

It should be noted that although Phoenix Fire Line, amplified by Phoenix Wings Soaring, was only Ma Xiaotao's first soul skill, as a Soul Emperor-level expert, her foundation was incredibly profound, far surpassing that of a mere Soul King. Yet, the opponent managed to block her Phoenix Fire Line with her first soul skill!
What's going on? Ma Xiaotao frowned slightly, but the opponent's attack had already reached her. Without much time to think, her right palm pressed against the dark wave. With a soft "poof," the dark wave shattered instantly. The next moment, flames suddenly erupted from Ma Xiaotao's right hand, and intense phoenix flames surged forth, sweeping directly towards the opponent.

The second soul skill, Phoenix in Fire!
Faced with Ma Xiaotao's powerful attack, Huang Heyun made a backward movement, slightly lowering his body. His third soul ring lit up, and soul power shining with dark golden starlight surged out with a loud tiger roar, transforming into a tiger shape and crashing into Ma Xiaotao's phoenix flames.

The third spirit ring, a thousand-year spirit ring skill, Demonic Tiger Shocks the Heavens!
This close-range collision made Ma Xiaotao's feelings very real.

She discovered that when her opponent's soul skill clashed with her phoenix flames, the golden starlight within the opponent's soul skill would burst forth first, like tiny bombs exploding continuously within the phoenix flames. These seemingly insignificant explosions significantly weakened her attack power. As the golden starlight dimmed, Huang Heyun's own soul skill power finally collided with Ma Xiaotao's phoenix flames.

Ma Xiaotao's gaze swept over Princess Jiujiu behind her. What a Star Crown! What a powerful group support! Such a strong support effect is probably comparable to the Seven-Colored Glazed Pagoda or Gongyang Mo's Rainbow Dragon!

Just as Ma Xiaotao was secretly sighing, Huang Heyun's Demonic Tiger Shocking Heaven, amplified by Princess Jiujiu's third soul skill Starry Sky Technique, actually broke through the burning of the Phoenix Reborn and launched a strong counterattack against her.

A cold glint flashed in Ma Xiaotao's eyes. Without any intention of backing down, she charged towards the dark demonic tiger's shadow.

You think having a support character means you can go against me? I'll burn you to death!

"call out--"

With a resounding phoenix cry, Ma Xiaotao's entire body blazed brightly with flames, and her fiery wings suddenly unfurled. In that instant, Ma Xiaotao seemed to truly transform into a fire phoenix. The scorching phoenix flames abruptly changed from fiery red to incandescent white, and the sudden surge in temperature around her even forced Chen Zifeng and Bei Bei, who were further back, to quickly put some distance between them.

Amidst the rising flames, the demonic tiger's shadow instantly turned to ashes!

With a swift movement, Ma Xiaotao closed in on her opponent, then unleashed another burst of Phoenix Fire. This time, the flames she spewed out were also incandescent in color.

In the dazzling firelight, a hint of smugness appeared on Ma Xiaotao's face.

Hmph, luckily I had the foresight. Before coming here today, I secretly found Huo Yuhao and the two of us hugged for a long time in the bathroom, allowing Huo Yuhao to absorb the evil fire energy in her body once more, so that she could perform at her best in the upcoming competition without any worries!

My wife and daughter are back, so I have to look after the baby again. I'll keep it up with two updates a day for now...
