Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Chapter 45 Gold Devouring Beast and Blazing Crow

This soul beast is covered in golden light and has several sharp golden horns on its head. Its limbs are strong and powerful, with the front ends resembling eagle claws and sharp fingertips. Its tail is slender and flexible, with a spike at the end. It also has a pair of wings with metal scales on its back, which are flapping its wings and fighting with a large bird with noble temperament and shining golden light all over its body.

The golden bird was unusually beautiful, its outline flowing and elegant, like the most perfect arc in the sky. Most striking were its gleaming golden feathers, each one seemingly condensed from the purest sunlight, emitting a warm and intense light. Especially in the sunlight, it was so dazzling that it frightened people to look directly at it.

Its wings are particularly spectacular. When spread, they resemble two vast curtains of flame, their edges rimmed with brilliant patterns of fiery red and orange. The air currents it stirs up carry a hint of scorching heat as it flies. Its tail feathers are long and magnificent, like those of a phoenix, covered in intricate and exquisite patterns that resemble the re-creation of ancient runes. With each flap, countless tiny sparks fly out, creating dynamic paintings.

"What is this? The Gold Devourer and the Blazing Crow!"

There was a look of surprise in Luan Yu's eyes. The Gold-Eating Beast was fine. Although this kind of gold-attributed soul beast that feeds on metal was rare, it was useless to Liuxing and the others, and it was not the soul beast they needed. But the Blazing Fire Crow was different. It was a soul beast that possessed the bloodline of the divine beast Three-legged Golden Crow, and it was a soul beast with dual attributes of light and fire.

The Blazing Fire Crow possesses the blood of a divine beast and is undoubtedly a top-level soul beast, with dual attributes of light and fire. Whether it is Meteor and Firefly, or Xu Tianzhen and Ye Guyi, they can all absorb its soul ring. No matter who absorbs its soul ring, the soul skills obtained will definitely not be bad.

This Fire Crow was not big and was obviously still a young bird. Judging from its tail feathers, it was obvious that it had only cultivated for more than 400 years. The Gold-Eating Beast fighting with it was much larger and had cultivated for at least 800 years. However, it was unable to gain the upper hand in the battle with the Fire Crow.

You should know that although the Gold-Eating Beast is not of divine bloodline, it is also a top-level soul beast. It feeds on metal, and once it grows up, its defense is not inferior to some super soul beasts.

However, it was suppressed and beaten by the Fiery Crow, whose cultivation level was hundreds of years lower than its own. This was certainly due to the attribute restraint, fire restraining gold, but also because of the Fiery Crow's bloodline.

"How about this Blazing Crow? Who wants it?"

From a selfish point of view, she certainly hopes that it is her own meteor or firefly that absorbs the Fiery Crow with the blood of a divine beast, but she will not do that. Xu Tianran and Shangguan Weiler entrusted the two little guys to her, so she must treat them equally and not be selfish.

So she gave the choice to the little ones themselves. As for the gold-eating beast, no one needed it, so just drive it away.

Liuxing and Liuying were the first to shake their heads. Although this Blazing Fire Crow was very rare and also very suitable for them, its age was too young. The two had already decided to try to absorb a thousand-year-old soul beast with their first soul ring. This was also a decision made after passing the test of Fire Phoenix Douluo.

As Titled Douluo, they were still able to detect the physical strength of Liuying and Liuxing, which was indeed not inferior to that of Soul Master, and they had no problem absorbing the Millennium Soul Ring.

Luan Yu was not surprised by their choice. Although she did not want them to take risks, she also believed in her own judgment. The two were indeed born with strong physical fitness. This Fiery Crow had suitable attributes and noble bloodline, but its age was a little off.

Ye Guyi looked at the Fiery Crow in the mirror and shook her head. This Fiery Crow was obviously mainly fire-attributed with light-attributed as a supplement. Although it was barely suitable for her, it was not her best choice.

Xu Tianzhen looked at Ye Guyi, Liuxing, and Liuying, and whispered, "Thank you!"

She knew that this Blazing Crow was perfect for her. Possessing the bloodline of the Three-legged Golden Crow, the divine sun beast, its dual attributes of light and fire perfectly matched her Sun Martial Soul. Ye Guyi and Meteor had given up, perhaps out of humility. "Not good!"

At this moment, Luan Yu exclaimed, picked up a few of the little guys and rushed to the place where the two soul beasts were fighting, while gathering his soul power and shouting, "Show mercy!"

Time goes back. When a few little guys were discussing who would absorb the soul ring of the Blazing Crow, a figure appeared from the mirror soul guide in Luan Yu's hand and rushed towards the two fighting soul beasts. A golden beam of light was shot out by the figure, which pierced through the wings of the golden bird in the sky in a flash. In just a moment, it severely injured the Blazing Crow, causing it to fall from the sky with a mournful cry, and the Gold-Eating Beast was also trampled into the ground by the opponent's thunderous kick.

Luan Yu sped up and landed in the open space with a few little guys. He looked at the white-haired figure stepping on the gold-eating beast, and then looked at the Fiery Crow whose wings were broken but still flapping on the ground. He breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not dead yet!
Luan Yu patted her chest. She had just thought that the Fiery Crow had been killed, so she rushed up with Meteor and the others impatiently.

"grandfather!"

At this time, two children, a boy and a girl, ran out from the woods nearby. They looked at Luan Yu and the others vigilantly, and carefully hid behind the white-haired man who was stepping on the gold-eating beast.

"Who are you? The Red Dust Hall Master?"

It was not until she got closer that Luan Yu could clearly see the figure of the white-haired man. He was a middle-aged man with white hair, a monocle on his face, and a purple robe representing Mingde Hall. She recognized him at a glance. He was one of the three most famous soul masters in the Sun and Moon Empire, the master of Mingde Hall, the dean of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, a level 94 Titled Douluo, a level 9 soul master, Jing Hongchen.

"Hmm? It's you! Luanyu, you're also bringing your child here to hunt for spirit rings."

Jing Hongchen was stunned, then recognized Luan Yu, and looked at the four children behind Luan Yu with a look of sudden realization.

Seeing that it was someone their grandfather knew, the white-haired boy and the red-haired girl let down their guard. The white-haired boy even ran directly to the side of the gold-eating beast, and his eyes were full of desire when he looked at it.

"Grandpa, the gold-eating beast..."

Jing Hongchen took out a white handkerchief and wiped his hands, then jumped off the huge body of the Gold Devouring Beast and said with a smile: "Go ahead, Xiao, this Gold Devouring Beast is yours."

Although the Gold-Eating Beast was famous for its defensive power, its cultivation level was too low, and it was knocked unconscious by the kick from the sky by Jing Hongchen, who was at the Titled Douluo level.

With his grandfather's permission, the white-haired boy couldn't wait to take out a soul-guided dagger and inserted it into the eyes of the gold-devouring beast, completely ending the life of this top-level soul beast. The gold-devouring beast instinctively trembled a few times, and then quickly lost its breath of life, and a circle of yellow soul rings slowly emerged.
