Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 161 Arena of Life and Death

All this was done in an instant. When the old butler reacted, he and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger were already within the gravitational range of the black hole.

In mid-air, Lin Rong saw the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger use this trick, and immediately activated the Qingye mark left on the old butler's body and exchanged space with him.

At the same time, the light golden mental power condensed into a ray of light, which shattered the black light shield on the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in front of its astonished gaze.

Before being sucked into the black hole, Lin Rong looked back at the old butler and used his mind to convey the words to the old butler:
"Grandpa Yu, don't worry, I'll be fine."

The next moment, the black hole swallowed up Lin Rong and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger that had lost the protection of the black light shield.

In the outside world, the black hole disappeared after swallowing a man and a tiger.

The old butler came to the place where the black hole disappeared. Although he heard what the young master said to him, he couldn't help worrying about the young master's safety.

……

Black hole world.

Lin Rong was floating in it, and everything around him fell into endless darkness, without a trace of light.

Feeling the changes taking place in himself, Lin Rong, who knew the ins and outs of this skill, showed no panic on his face, but waited quietly.

Not long after, the surroundings suddenly brightened and I felt grounded under my feet.

“Is this the arena of life and death?”

Lin Rong looked around curiously.

This is a huge circular arena, so big that you can't see the edge at a glance.

Looking up, there were no clouds, sun, moon or stars in the sky. All I could see was endless darkness.

The light here is emitted by the arena itself, and combined with the atmosphere here, it gives people an extremely depressing feeling.

Lin Rong looked down at himself and found that he had indeed turned back into his six-year-old self.

The soul power and martial spirit in the body disappeared, and even the divinity was slightly sensed to be blocked by an unknown force and could not be used.

Lin Rong, who had known it would be like this, still maintained a calm expression.

Because, the Xisui Sutra ignored the blockade of power here, and his Xisui Sutra realm here was still the second highest realm of Yuantong Guanzizai.

In other words, the two abilities of state of mind and heart mirror bestowed upon him by the Xisui Sutra are still there.

Under the power of state of mind and heart mirror, although most of Lin Rong's mental power was blocked by the power here, a small part was still retained.

“Although I don’t have much mental power left, it’s still no problem to use it to deal with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger that has been cultivating for six years.”

Lin Rong walked forward while carefully sensing the total amount of mental power he could mobilize.

Thirty meters away, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which had only cultivated for six years, no longer had the domineering aura of the outside world.

The iconic evil god wings disappeared, the slender scorpion tail turned into an ordinary tiger tail, and the huge evil god hook was now pitifully small, like a toy, and did not seem to pose any threat.

Its body, which was originally eight meters long, was now only one and a half meters.

The pure black fur had no evil aura and looked smooth and soft. Combined with its furry little tiger head that looked cute and fierce at the moment, Lin Rong couldn't help but feel the urge to pet the cat.

At this time, strange sounds came from all directions.

"Welcome to the arena of life and death."

"Only when one side dies can this life-and-death battle end and we can escape from this space."

"Countdown, five, four, three, two, one, start."

Listening to this strange sound, Lin Rong felt disdainful.

Only when one party dies can one escape from this space. Just listen to this sentence.

The Azure Bull Python and the Tyrone Giant Ape have fought against the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger many times. Judging from their performance in the original book, they knew that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had this skill, which means they must have come here before.

The result was that the Azure Bull Python and the Tyrone Giant Ape were alive and well and did not die in the arena of life and death, while the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was also not dead and has been at large.

There is only one possibility for this situation to occur, and that is that the Dark Demon Evil Tiger, as the initiator of the skill, can actively cancel this skill and allow the creatures in the Life and Death Arena to escape from here together.

However, in the original novel, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger did not do this in the battle with Tang San, which means that even as the initiator of the skill, if you want to cancel this skill, you need to stay here for a sufficient amount of time.

However, Tang San cheated by using a hidden weapon, causing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger to end the life-and-death contest before it could stay for enough time, which resulted in its death.

Hidden weapon, hidden weapon.

Thinking of this, Lin Rong felt a little depressed.

Except for a few hidden weapons, such as the Buddha's Wrath Lotus, the Peacock Feather, and the Dragon Beard Needle, he looked down upon the rest of the hidden weapons.

Therefore, after handing over the only Buddha's Wrath Lotus and Peacock Feather in his hand to Dugu Bo to bring to Ma Hongjun, the only hidden weapon Lin Rong had was the Dragon Beard Needle.

But the power of this hidden weapon depends on the strength of soul power.

And now he is in the Arena of Life and Death, his own state is in the period of time when his martial soul has not yet awakened, and his strength is only equivalent to the internal force of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra at the level of innate full soul power.

With this level of internal force, the Dragon Beard Needle cannot break the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's defense.

"Forget it. Anyway, from the beginning, my real reliance in the Life and Death Arena was the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, not the Tang Sect's hidden weapons."

"After all, I only have hidden weapons, but I don't have the agility and strength that Tang San has trained since childhood. I am only six years old and cannot beat the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, who is also six years old."

Lin Rong walked forward leisurely, and soon the distance of thirty meters was only half.

"Roar!"

Seeing this human child so confident, the Dark Demon Evil Tiger's vigilance soared, and it let out a roar in an attempt to scare the other party away.

However, with its adorable appearance, the roar it made had no deterrent effect at all. Even the roar sounded so cute that Lin Rong wanted to pet the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in front of him as if it were a cat.

"Forget about petting the cat." Lin Rong's mental state at the moment was extremely good, his thoughts were calm and he knew what to choose.

"Who knows how long it will take for it to automatically remove this skill? If it slips out, things will become troublesome."

The state of mind is activated, and within the coverage area, mental power interferes with reality.

The harp of the god of love was suspended in the air, and the light golden spiritual power was playing music on the strings.

The melodious piano music flowed in this dark arena and drifted into the heart of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

One of the effects of the god of love's artifact is the influence of piano sound.

The power contained in the sound of the piano can make any creature that hears the melody addicted to it, eliminating all emotions in their hearts and leaving only pure love.

With only love in one's heart, there will be no desire to attack, just like the Dark Demon Evil Tiger now. Although it resisted desperately, it was only six years old and could not resist the power of the artifact at all.

Listening to the pleasant piano music, the atmosphere of this life and death arena no longer feels oppressive.

The sound of the piano contained magic, which made the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger immersed in it. Under the influence of the piano music, its scarlet eyes gradually became gentle and peaceful, and its furry head shook gently, which was very suitable for the phrase "tiger head and tiger brain".

As time passed, the struggle in the eyes of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger became weaker and weaker, and just when the last trace of struggle in his eyes was about to be moved.

outside world.

A small, pure black scale suddenly appeared above the head of the human emitting an aura of evil divine power.

Invisible energy waves emanated from the black scales and traveled through the void to the arena of life and death that was located somewhere unknown.

The arena of life and death, above the ring.

A hole was torn in space, and gray-black airflow continued to pour out from the crack in space, quickly enveloping the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

With the blessing of this power, the gentle and peaceful look in the eyes of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger disappeared instantly, and clarity was restored.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, who had regained consciousness, looked at the six-year-old Lin Rong who was a few meters away. A very human look of fear flashed in his scarlet eyes.

"roar~"

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a roar.

As the tiger's roar echoed in this life and death arena, everything around began to distort, the space shattered in an instant, and endless darkness flooded the place again.

This sudden change surprised Lin Rong. He sensed the breath of evil power from the sudden gray-black airflow.

"Evil divine power, could it be that the suspected inheritor of the evil god from the outside world did it?"

"Whether you did it on purpose or not, since you dare to ruin my good deeds, then you'd better pray that you don't fall into my hands, otherwise..."

Thinking of this, a hint of cold murderous intent flashed in Lin Rong's eyes.

Soon, the darkness dissipated and they felt the solid ground under their feet again. Lin Rong and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger returned to the primeval forest again.

Feeling the power of return, Lin Rong was about to attack the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in front of him, but the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger flapped its evil god wings and disappeared from the spot in an instant, leaving only a residual space fluctuation.

"Grandpa Yu, eight o'clock direction, one hundred and fifteen meters, stop them!"

The old butler saw the young master appear before him safely. As soon as the worry on his old face disappeared, this voice came to his mind.

Without thinking too much, the next moment.

Lin Rong and the old butler disappeared from the spot tacitly, and turned into residual shadows in the air and rushed towards the place where the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and the two suspected inheritors of the gods were.

A hundred meters away, ripples appeared in the space, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which had recovered to its full strength, appeared here.

"Roar!"

It roared anxiously, and the breeze carried the two humans riding on its broad back, flapping its wings and ready to leave.

"It's not that easy to run away!"

During this short delay, Lin Rong and the old butler caught up.

At the same time, Lin Rong's sixth soul ring flickered, and his sixth soul skill, the Vine Dragon Prison Sky Formation, was activated.

As most of the soul power in the body was consumed in an instant, the trees in this primeval forest instantly turned into banyan trees.

The banyan forest that stretches as far as the eye can see forms a huge trap that tightly blocks this place.

However, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger seemed to know that this soul skill had a very strong ability to trap the enemy, and its scarlet eyes flashed.

The black scales temporarily merged into the body of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger, and the evil aura on it instantly surged.

The power of time without any color emanated from the wings of the evil god.

The next moment, time went back to a few seconds ago.

Lin Rong and the old butler returned to the position they were in a few seconds ago, and all their memories of what had just happened disappeared.

However, Lin Rong still sensed a strange yet unusually familiar elemental force through his fluctuating state of mind.

"This feeling is... the power of time!"

On the other side, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, who had returned to a few seconds ago, did not stop at all. A gust of wind swept the two inheritors of the gods into the air and left the range of this primeval forest.

"Good fellow!" Looking at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in the air, Lin Rong sighed.

The reaction of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger made Lin Rong certain that he must have used the Vine Dragon Prison Heaven Formation just now, and then the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger used the power of time to turn back time.

"Humph! Do you think escaping into the air will help?"

"I will keep you here today no matter what!"

A dragon roar was heard, and the Nine-bend Vine Dragon carrying Lin Rong and the old butler rushed out of the forest, chasing after the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

There were no obstacles in the sky, so the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger also used the sprint skill, which was as fast as teleportation.

A black light flashed by and rushed out thousands of meters almost instantly.

Lin Rong was not to be outdone and used all of his attribute-enhancing soul skills.

The dragon soul clone doubled the amplification of the first, third, and fourth soul skills, plus the amplification of all attributes in the talent field. The speed of the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon increased by more than six times, and its speed was even slightly faster than that of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

There is a distance of two to three hundred meters between the two sides, and this distance is being shortened little by little as time goes by.

However, Lin Rong, in his anger, forgot one thing.

The sky is not a forest. There are no countless big trees to provide life energy to restore his soul power.

Using so many soul skills at the same time, the soul power in Lin Rong's body is decreasing at an extremely alarming rate.

Even though Lin Rong's own soul power recovery speed is already extraordinarily fast, in the face of this horrific soul power consumption rate he can only delay the time of soul power exhaustion as much as possible.

A few minutes passed.

The distance between the two sides was shortened from two or three hundred meters to less than a hundred meters.

But at this time, the soul power in Lin Rong's body was about to be exhausted.

"Can't catch up?" Feeling that the soul power in his body was about to run out, Lin Rong sighed.

“Forget it, since we can’t keep the Dark Demon Evil Tiger, then we might as well keep the two inheritors of the gods!”

If the Dark Demon Evil Tiger had not devoured these two humans before, and the two completely opposite auras of divine power emanating from them, Lin Rong would have suspected that these two human women were the inheritors of the God of Good and the God of Evil.

Now, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger did not forget to protect these two humans even when their lives were at stake. This action made Lin Rong 100% certain that these two humans were the inheritors of the God of Good and the God of Evil.

Although Lin Rong was a little confused as to why the inheritance of the throne of god through marriage would appear between two same-sex women, there is nothing strange in the world and everything is possible.
