Douluo: The Peerless King of Beast Tamers

Chapter 376 Actions in the Divine Realm: Elder Yi Takes Action to Refine the Titan Giant Ape's Divine Soul
In the void, Tang Hao was fiercely entangled with that elusive and uncertain spirit of the plane.

His power repeatedly swept towards the surging halo, but was always deflected by an invisible force.

Just as he was preparing to launch his next fierce attack, a tearing pain suddenly shot through his chest, as if the thread that sustained his life force had been snapped.

"Ugh—" Tang Hao groaned, his body trembled violently, and the luster on his body instantly dimmed.

He subconsciously restrained his breathing, focusing all his attention on sensing the connection that originated from the depths of his soul.

No matter how hard he tried, he could no longer reach the mountains that held his childhood, his glory, and his guilt.

The area in the direction where Haotian Sect was located had become nothingness.

"Impossible..." Tang Hao's pupils suddenly contracted, his bloodshot eyes filled with disbelief.

He endured for many years for the sake of Xiaosanpu's path, even risking his life to restrain the spirits of the plane, all so that one day Haotian Sect could regain its glory.

But now, that sect land he longed for has completely disappeared?

"Who is it?!" Tang Hao suddenly looked up and roared at the void, his voice filled with endless rage and despair.

"Who dares to touch my Haotian Sect?! I'll grind you to dust!!"

A violent power erupted from his body, causing ripples in the surrounding space, but the only response he received was the cold counterattack from the spirit of the plane.

Tang Hao was acting like a madman; his manhood was gone.

Meanwhile, in the realm of gods, within the palace of the God-King of Destruction.

Dark purple lightning intertwined in the dome, reflecting off the sharply defined face of the God of Destruction.

He looked at Tang San, who was dressed in a blue robe, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips: "Tang San, what do you think of my proposal? The chaos in the God Realm is coming, and we urgently need fresh blood to replenish our fighting strength. As your birthplace, Douluo Continent will surely be able to nurture several more geniuses."

Tang San lowered his eyes to look at the illusory image of the Blue Silver Grass flowing in his palm, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

He was well aware of the plan to destroy the God-King.

This god-king merely wanted to use the opportunity of cultivating new gods to weaken his own influence in the divine realm.

But on the surface, he still maintained a gentle expression: "Destruction is not something I am unwilling to do, it's just that I completely lost contact with Douluo Continent a few days ago."

"The dimensional barrier suddenly became incredibly strong, and even my divine sense could not penetrate it."

"Moreover, the ironclad laws of the divine realm forbid interference in the mortal world. Even if I wanted to help, I would be powerless to do so."

Tang San spread his hands, his tone full of helplessness, but only he knew that his heart was already churning with turmoil.

During the days he was out of contact, he was constantly worried about the situation on Douluo Continent, especially the pieces he had laid out.

The God of Destruction toyed with a wisp of purple lightning between his fingers, clearly not believing his explanation: "The dimensional barrier is fluctuating? That's interesting."

"It doesn't matter. Once the connection is restored, we can have the other gods keep an eye on things. After all, the potential of that continent is not to be underestimated, given that it was able to raise a god-king like you."

Just as Tang San was about to speak in agreement, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his arms, as if two red-hot irons were being pressed hard against his shoulder armor.

His brows furrowed instantly, and he instinctively covered his arm.

That is the location of the soul bones that once housed the souls of the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Ape.

Although the two ferocious beasts have long since been resurrected, and the connection between the soul bone and them has gradually weakened, the bond originating from the depths of the bloodline has never been severed.

But at this moment, the stinging pain came quickly and went even faster, as if it were just an illusion.

Furthermore, the secrets of Douluo Continent were obscured by a mysterious force, making it impossible for him to ascertain what had actually happened.

"What's wrong?" The God of Destruction keenly noticed his unusual behavior.

"It's nothing, perhaps it's just an old injury that's aggravated." Tang San calmly withdrew his hand and steered the conversation back to the turbulent currents of the God Realm: "Destruction is the most urgent task, but dealing with the turbulent currents is still the priority."

"In my opinion, we need to integrate the divine forces as soon as possible and coordinate them in a unified manner..." He explained the plan in an orderly manner, his tone calm, but the gloom in his heart grew heavier.

We must regain control of Douluo Continent as soon as possible and absolutely not allow any variables to slip out of our control.

At this moment, Haotian Fortress was already in a state of utter chaos.

Poison Undying sneered, "The Haotian Sect has quite a few things hidden away, but it's a pity they'll all belong to us from now on."

Xuanzi stood to the side, watching as even the luminous pearls embedded in the wall were pried off. He couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement: "Old Poison Master, aren't we being a bit too ruthless?"

"Ruthless?" Poison Immortal glanced at him sideways: "Being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to yourself."

In the courtyard not far away, Xiong Da waved his giant, fan-like paws, smashing the artificial mountain to pieces, not even sparing the poisonous insects hiding in the crevices of the rocks.

Hellfire spews out scorching flames, burning the ground black and even forcing earthworms out of the soil by the heat.

Ah Da's sharp tail hook was like a blade, cutting the earthworms vertically one by one, while muttering to himself: "The boss said, to cut weeds, you have to pull them out by the roots. Cutting them vertically is the only way to get them completely cut."

In the center of the ruins, Zhou Sichen, having regained his energy, let out a long sigh and suddenly opened his eyes, his soul power surging like a river within him.

His body shone brightly, and his true martial soul suddenly appeared, with six white gold and five red auras rising from his body, radiating a terrifying pressure.

As he began absorbing the spirit ring, the dark gold spirit ring on the Titan Giant Ape's body seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, slowly drifting towards Zhou Sichen, who was sitting cross-legged.

When the spirit ring arrived above his head, a devastating power suddenly erupted. Dark golden ripples, like tangible giant waves, pressed down hard on Zhou Sichen, and the ground was crushed with fine cracks by this pressure.

"Such powerful strength!" Moon couldn't help but exclaim softly, his eyes filled with amazement.

This is a genuine million-year soul ring, and the energy it contains is enough to easily crush a Title Douluo.

Di Tian stood to the side, his golden vertical pupils fixed on Zhou Sichen.

Before descending to the mortal realm, the Titan Giant Ape's strength was comparable to that of a high priest. If it weren't for the suppression of the rules of Douluo Continent, not to mention Zhou Sichen, even a Limit Douluo wouldn't be able to withstand a single move from it.

He wanted to see if this young man, on whom so much hope was placed, could create a miracle.

The Snow Empress and the Demon Emperor also held their breath. The former condensed a wisp of cold air at her fingertips, ready to lend a helping hand at any moment, while the latter released a faint demonic aura, also ready to provide assistance at any time.

Under that terrifying pressure, Zhou Sichen's spine creaked, and his body involuntarily bent slightly.

But he gritted his teeth, activated his flawless golden body to its fullest extent, and golden patterns appeared on the surface of his skin, gradually dissipating that crushing force.

"Hold on...!" Zhou Sichen roared, his soul core in his dantian spinning wildly, surging into the soul ring above his head like a flood.

The dark golden spirit ring fluctuated violently, sometimes contracting and sometimes expanding, as if resisting being absorbed.

Time passed slowly, and beads of sweat appeared on Zhou Sichen's forehead, his face turned red, but his back was slowly straightening.

When the last bit of resistance was dispelled, the dark gold spirit ring finally stopped resisting and slowly fell back into place.

Zhou Sichen's absorption of the Titan Giant Ape's spirit ring was already progressing smoothly. The dark golden spirit ring energy flowed slowly through his limbs and bones like a gentle stream, and each cycle made his spirit power more and more solid.

The golden patterns on the flawless golden body flowed across its surface, steadily suppressing the violent power of millions of years. Even Di Tian and Mu En, who were watching the battle from the sidelines, nodded secretly, feeling that the absorption was a foregone conclusion.

Just as the soul ring energy was about to completely merge with Zhou Sichen's soul power, his mental world suddenly trembled violently.

In the once clear and star-like spiritual world, a black storm suddenly arose, and a familiar, terrifying pressure exploded forth. A phantom of a Titan ape, tens of feet tall, appeared out of thin air, its dark golden fur standing on end, its blood-red eyes burning with boundless hatred—it was the Titan ape's soul, which should have perished along with its physical body!
"Roar--"

A deafening roar echoed in the mental world. The Titan Ape's massive body strode through the void, each step causing Zhou Sichen's mental barrier to hum.

It stared intently at the figure in the center of its spiritual world that was exactly the same as Zhou Sichen's physical body, a ferocious grin spreading across its lips:
"Human brat, you think you can easily take my soul ring by severing my physical body? How naive!"

Zhou Sichen's spiritual form hovered in mid-air, his eyebrows slightly raised.

He could clearly sense the resentment and malice contained within that divine soul.

The Titan Ape had clearly planned this all along, hiding the essence of the divine soul within its spirit ring, waiting for the crucial moment when it would absorb it to launch a fatal attack.

"You think you can turn the tables with these little tricks?" Zhou Sichen's spiritual voice was calm, showing no sign of panic.

The Titan Ape burst into maniacal laughter, its voice filled with madness and disdain: "A comeback? No, I want mutual destruction! You really think I, the Titan Ape, am so easily manipulated?"

It pounded its chest violently, its divine soul power erupting like a volcano, "I am a divine official of the God Realm! Even though I am suppressed by the rules of Douluo Continent, the foundation of my divine soul is far beyond what you ants of the lower realm can imagine!"

"Today I will detonate your divine soul, causing your mental breakdown and turning you into a walking corpse!"

Before he finished speaking, the Titan Ape's soul suddenly expanded, and the dark golden light almost burst Zhou Sichen's mental world.

Its fist, as large as a clay pot, brimmed with destructive power, accompanied by a whistling sound as it tore through space, and slammed fiercely towards Zhou Sichen's spiritual body.

If this attack lands, even if Zhou Sichen's physical body remains unharmed, his spirit will be utterly crushed.

"Die!" the Titan Ape roared, its eyes filled with the satisfaction of revenge.

It knew all too well what these people wanted. Zhou Sichen insisted on personally cutting off its head simply to plunder its soul ring.

But who is it?

He's no longer the 100,000-year-old soul beast he once was; he's a super being who has been promoted to a divine officer!
Even if it dies, it will drag this human who dared to challenge its authority down with it!
However, despite this earth-shattering punch, Zhou Sichen's spiritual body remained standing in place.

Zhou Sichen's lips even curled into a faint smile, and he looked at the Titan Ape as if he were looking at a clown.

"What's the rush?" Zhou Sichen's voice rang out in the mental world, neither loud nor soft, yet carrying a knowing calm:

"You think we didn't anticipate this kind of trick?"

The Titan Ape's fist suddenly stopped less than three feet away from Zhou Sichen, as it suddenly sensed a strange power spreading.

Countless obscure runes slowly emerged around Zhou Sichen's spiritual body!

The runes were dark purple, flowing through the void like living things, each exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

Runes intertwined into a net, instantly forming an indestructible barrier in front of Zhou Sichen, firmly blocking the Titan Ape's fist wind.

"What...is this?" The Titan Ape's pupils shrank, and an unprecedented sense of crisis surged in its heart.

It could sense that the power contained within these runes caused even its divine soul, at the level of a high priest, to tremble from the depths of its soul.

Zhou Sichen spoke calmly, his voice carrying a hint of respect: "Elder Yi, I'll leave the rest to you."

"Ah."

An ancient and majestic voice resounded in the spiritual world, as if it came from the ancient past.

With this response, the runes suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, and a majestic figure draped in a black robe, his face shrouded in shadow, slowly emerged from the rune's radiance.

His body was surrounded by an endless aura of death, yet he also possessed a sacred sense of control over all things. This was Zhou Sichen's third martial soul—the Necromancer Saint, Ilex!
The moment Electrox appeared, the flowing runes accelerated their operation, shooting out as if they had a life of their own, and in the blink of an eye, they wrapped around the Titan Ape's soul.

Wherever the runes passed, the Titan Ape's ferocious divine soul power receded like a tide, its massive body frozen in place, unable to move even a finger.

"No! Impossible!" The Titan Ape panicked completely, its ferocity replaced by terror.

It struggled frantically, its divine soul power repeatedly impacting the rune shackles, but only making those runes tighten even more.

"What kind of power is this?! You...who are you?! Are you also a god descended to the mortal realm?!"

In its understanding, only the gods of the divine realm could possess such overwhelming power.

But the aura emanating from the figure before it was more terrifying than any priest it had ever seen; it was a kind of pressure that transcended the laws of life and death!
Zhou Sichen's spiritual form sneered, his tone filled with undisguised mockery: "A priest? That kind of lowly minion from the divine realm dares to compare himself to Elder Yi?"

Ignoring the Titan Ape's roar, Electrox slowly raised his well-defined hand, his fingers spread wide, and an invisible suction force suddenly erupted.

The Titan Ape's soul trembled violently under this suction force, and its originally solid body began to show signs of disintegration.

"What...what are you going to do?!" The Titan Ape finally felt the threat of death.

It could sense that its soul was being broken down and devoured by a terrifying force.

Electrolux's voice was calm and composed, yet carried an undeniable authority: "Your soul is quite a good candidate for material."

Zhou Sichen's spirit spoke up at the opportune moment: "Elder Yi, can we break through our previous limits by using its divine soul to refine the undead?"

Electrolux nodded slightly, his gaze falling on the Titan Ape's terrified soul, a glint of expectation flashing in his eyes:
"The divine soul of a priest-level being contains power far exceeding that of ordinary soul beasts. Using it to refine the undead might truly create an existence comparable to a demigod."

He paused, looking at the Titan Ape as if it were an object: "Rest in peace. It is your honor to become a part of my necromancy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Electrolux began chanting an ancient incantation.
The obscure syllables echoed in the spiritual world, and the runes that were wrapped around the Titan Ape instantly ignited, turning into a ghostly blue flame.

The flames did not burn the physical body, but only the soul. The Titan Ape let out a shrill scream in the flames as its soul was refined and purified at a visible speed.

"No—Tang San! Save me—!"

In its extreme agony, the Titan Ape roared out Tang San's name, as if still hoping that the God King Tang from the God Realm could save its life.

The only response it received was Electrolux's ever-growing incantation.

The dark blue flames gradually subsided, eventually condensing into a walnut-sized crystal core radiating a dark golden light—the essence of the Titan Ape's soul after it had been thoroughly purified.

Electrolux casually grabbed the soul core into his palm, then turned to Zhou Sichen's spiritual form and said, "Alright, the obstacle has been removed. Continue absorbing the soul ring."

After saying that, His figure disappeared along with the runes, returning to the silence of Zhou Sichen's martial spirit.

The mental world returned to its former clarity, and the last trace of resentment left by the Titan Ape was quickly and completely purified by the purifying power left by Electrox.

Without the disturbance of the divine soul, the million-year soul rings in the outside world immediately became docile.

The dark golden soul ring energy surged into Zhou Sichen's body like a river bursting its banks.

This time, no force could hinder its fusion. The golden patterns on the flawless golden body operated at full power, continuously transforming the million-year soul power contained in the soul ring into Zhou Sichen's own power.

On Zhou Sichen's body, the seventh spirit ring slowly took shape.

This dark golden million-year spirit ring began to slowly light up, shining brightly alongside the other six spirit rings.

His aura surged at an astonishing speed. His soul power, which had been stuck at level 85, broke through the bottleneck like a rocket and rushed towards the realm of Title Douluo.
