Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 17 Candy Martial Soul’s First Soul Skill: Golden Dragon Body!
The sweet taste exploded in the mouth, the candy melted quickly, and the tremendous energy flowed like a flood along the meridians and into the internal organs.

The blood in his body seemed to be ignited by this energy and became hot. Nan Liujing's whole body was covered with a layer of faint golden light, and the surface of his skin vaguely gave the impression of dragon scales, but it was very faint. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it clearly at all.

The spiritual power of the Lingtong realm allowed Nan Liujing to keenly sense that his strength, speed, attack, and defense had increased significantly, especially his strength, which had increased amazingly.

"Why does this soul skill feel like Tang Wulin's first blood soul ring skill, Golden Dragon Body?"

Feeling the changes in his body, Nan Liujing suddenly widened his eyes and said in shock,

"Could it be that the opportunity seized by the Heavenly Tribulation Pearl is the Golden Dragon King bloodline in Tang Wulin?"

Be nice.

Thinking of this guess, Nan Liujing immediately became excited as if he had eaten a Snickers bar.

The Golden Dragon Body is an ability that Tang Wulin gained when he broke through the second seal of the Golden Dragon King. It greatly enhances the body.

If a spirit master with a weaker physique like Xu Xiaoyan were to use it, he would be able to move mountains and have overwhelming strength. Not to mention that his physique could be compared with that of the strong attack spirit masters of the same level, but compared with most of the agile attack spirit masters, it should be about the same.

To put it another way, since soul skills are useless to you, I do know a little bit about fighting and kicking.

The most important thing is that Nan Liujing himself is an instrument spirit master. Under natural conditions, the growth of physical strength is definitely not as much as that of a beast spirit. Now that he has an additional golden dragon body skill, it can be regarded as filling this gap in the early stage of the spirit master.

Rustling.

Before he could fully experience the pleasure brought by the golden dragon body, Nan Liujing heard footsteps coming towards him in the distance.

Without making a sound, he retracted the golden soul ring and stood silently on the branch waiting.

What surprised Nan Liujing was that he did not activate his soul power at this moment, and the golden dragon body soul skill he released did not show any signs of retreating. It did not even consume the heaven and earth energy automatically absorbed by the soul ring, as if the pause button was pressed.

When Tang Wulin uses it himself, even if he doesn't move, it will consume his Qi and blood. There is a world of difference between the two.

Is this the power of the Heavenly Tribulation Pearl?

I just don’t know what the effect will be if I give the Golden Dragon Candy to other people.

"Hoohoo!"

The sound of rapid breathing echoed in the deep forest. Ye Xinglan's blue eyes swept towards the dense bushes around him with vigilance and fear, as if there was something terrible around.

"Tough luck, bad luck, bad luck!"

Ye Xinglan's pretty face flushed red, which was left by the lingering anger, because she had never felt so unlucky.

First, her father asked her to wait a day before entering the Soul Ascension Platform, just to wait for the nephew of a so-called old friend. After waiting for a long time, but no one showed up, she simply entered the Soul Ascension Platform first. As a result, she had just killed a few ten-year-level soul beasts when she ran into a thousand-year-old soul beast.

Although the Green Bush Wolf was not a particularly powerful soul beast, she was only a level 12 soul master. How could she defeat a thousand-year-old soul beast? But she had finally had the chance to experience the Soul Ascension Platform, and she was unwilling to leave just like that. She had no choice but to run away.

Fortunately, the Green Bush Wolf had a habit of chasing for a long time, tiring out its prey before attacking, otherwise she would not have been able to run far.

However, the long period of using her soul power to escape had severely depleted her soul power. She could only hold on for another minute or so before she really had to consider sending a distress signal.

The long sword in his hand slashed forward, and the bushes scattered all over the ground. Ye Xinglan's eyes moved, and his silver teeth gritted, "I have been chasing me for so long, even if I die, I will chop you a few times."

Outside the bushes was a relatively open area. Although there were still lush branches and leaves above, the accumulated sunlight could not penetrate down. However, for the Green Wolf, it could not rely on the terrain to hunt or scare the enemy into running away, so it had no choice but to walk out of the bushes.

Ye Xinglan tiptoed and rushed into the open space. As soon as she came in, her eyebrows jumped.

But I didn't know what happened in front of me. There were a lot of cracks on the ground, as dense as a spider web, and there was a deep pit in the middle. There was no grass or leaves nearby.

"call out."

There was a sound of hair rubbing against grass in the bushes behind him. Ye Xinglan's heart tightened and he looked around vigilantly.

She didn't stop until she reached the middle of the open space. In her hand was a bright yellow sword with a blade surrounded by pale yellow starlight, emitting a sharp glow. The tip of the sword pointed at the ground, ready to stab out at any time.

"Come out." Ye Xinglan shouted.

"Whoosh."

A shadow flashed past the bushes on the left.

Ye Xinglan looked over quickly, but only the grass leaves were shaking slightly.

Frowning slightly, she pretended to sit cross-legged on the spot, with faint fluctuations of soul power appearing on her body, making her look like she was meditating to recover her soul power.

Now it was the Green Bush Wolf's turn to lose patience. A low roar came from its throat, and its dark pupils were filled with cold murderous intent. Slowly, it moved behind Ye Xinglan, then rushed out of the bushes swiftly, like a green afterimage.

The sharp wolf claws tore through the air and slapped Ye Xinglan's back of the head fiercely.

Almost instantly, the only soul ring on Ye Xinglan's body lit up with yellow light. She slapped the ground with her left hand, and a surge of soul power surged out, helping her body to rise to a height of nearly one and a half meters.

The wolf's claws slashed into the air, exposing the Green Wolf's back. Ye Xinglan's eyes narrowed, and he gripped the Star God Sword with both hands, stabbing it fiercely at the wolf's waist. A ball of starlight flew out from the tip of the sword, containing what seemed to be a dozen sword beams, imbued with extremely penetrating star power.

In the dim environment, it is like scattered starlight, extremely bright.

The green bush wolf growled, and the dark green hair on its back suddenly changed. Hundreds of long and thin wolf hair spikes quickly emerged and stabbed upwards.

The starlight collided with it, but failed to cause any killing power. Instead, it was shattered into thousands of fragments.

Ye Xinglan's pupils shrank, and he quickly held the Star God Sword horizontally in front of him. The next moment, the wolf-hair spikes that shattered the starlight slammed heavily into the sword.

The powerful force knocked Ye Xinglan away. Her face flushed and a sweet feeling came from her throat.

After landing again, Ye Xinglan's mouth was stained with a trace of blood. She wiped it off with her hand and looked coldly at the dark green bush wolf.

She swore that when she became powerful, she would kill a green bush wolf every time she entered the Spirit Ascension Platform to vent her anger.

“Ah, ah.”

But just when Ye Xinglan was about to press the distress signal unwillingly, the green bush wolf became impatient and bared its teeth at her.

The nearly two-meter-long body was slightly crawling, and strong soul power fluctuations spread out, completely entering a combat state. It was completely different from the ease and comfort when dealing with Ye Xinglan just now, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Ye Xinglan was stunned for a moment. She originally thought that the Green Bush Wolf was playing it safe by deliberately attracting her attention and then launching a sneak attack.

But slowly, the green bush wolf actually took a few steps back.

If this is fake, then it's really amazing.

"so……"

Ye Xinglan placed her left hand on the distress signal button, slowly turned her head, and her beautiful eyes suddenly widened.

About ten meters behind her, a handsome boy of similar age was looking at her with a smile on his face, carrying a dark green stick on his right shoulder.

And above this person, there was a purple soul ring floating.

...

Inside the room, Ye Changming, who had been frowning for a long time, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Nan Liujing appear behind his daughter with a purple soul ring.

"The first soul ring is a thousand years?"

Several exclamations were heard from the staff of the Spirit Pagoda.

Na'er blinked in confusion. She didn't understand soul rings, she just thought her brother was very handsome.

The staff member who brought everyone to the soul-raising room changed his expression and stared at Nan Liujing, not knowing what he was thinking.

...

"You're so unlucky to have met Goulang." Nan Liujing stepped forward. Goulang was the nickname of the Green Bush Wolf.

Although they had the ability to kill prey quickly, they chose to take their time and play it safe. However, this also caused the Green Bush Wolf to become extinct in the major soul beast forests until two thousand years ago.

Seeing that it was a human, Ye Xinglan was obviously relieved. She stood up and said in a proud tone, "You are unlucky too. This wolf is a thousand-year-old."

The first soul ring was a thousand-year soul ring, which did shock Ye Xinglan, but she did not think that a one-ring soul master could be a match for a thousand-year soul beast.

Nan Liujing smiled and said, "How about I kill one in seconds and show you?"

Ye Xinglan said disdainfully: "If you can kill her in seconds, I will drink up all the water in Tiandou River on the spot."

"Remember what you said." Nan Liujing's smile faded, and he walked slowly towards the Green Bush Wolf.

Ye Xinglan pursed her lips. Although she felt disdainful in her heart, she was still prepared to help. In fact, she didn't know if a first-ring soul master could defeat a thousand-year soul beast. It was just her personality. She didn't want to believe that others could do what she couldn't do.

The Green Wolf let out a heart-wrenching, dull roar from his throat, and then he saw the human walking towards him, waving the stick in his hand.

The stick was not long, and it should not be able to hit it when it was swung. However, at the moment it swept across, the stick suddenly extended out, exceeding twenty meters in an instant, and dark blue dazzling electric light crackled and splashed out from it.

Swish.

A strong sound of breaking through the air suddenly came, and the Green Bush Wolf was not suddenly aware of it until then, but it was obviously too late.

With a bang, its two-meter-long body was smashed back by the Coiling Dragon Stick, the crackling sound of bones shattering being clearly audible. Along with this, a raging electric current madly drilled into its body, shattering its internal organs. The intense pain made the Green Bush Wolf instinctively mobilize its soul power to resist.

But what shocked the Green Bush Wolf, one of its few intelligent creatures, was that the electric current actually forcibly blocked the flow of soul power in its body. Although it was very short, it interrupted its best opportunity to protect itself. This was the truly fatal point.

Under Ye Xinglan's astonished gaze, Nan Liujing inserted the Panlong Stick, which had been retracted to its normal length, straight into the ground, and then extended it again, lifting him into the air.

At the moment when the Panlong Stick was extended to its limit, Nan Liujing's eyes flashed with brilliant lightning. He held the Panlong Stick with his backhand and smashed it forward. The dragon scales on the surface of the Panlong Stick seemed to come alive, uttering a low dragon roar, and then a dazzling semicircle of lightning streaked across the dim sky.

"Boom!"

Under Ye Xinglan's gaze, the Panlong Stick fiercely smashed into the Green Bush Wolf, whose body was surrounded by electric currents and whose mobility was greatly restricted.

The moment it landed, a cloud of blood mist exploded, and strong vibrations spread all around, accompanied by dense electric currents, and the nearby grass leaves shattered instantly.

At the center of the attack, the green bush wolf that was smashed into a pool of flesh appeared clearly in Ye Xinglan's vision. The golden hair on her forehead curled slightly with the waves of soul power, and her pretty face was already stunned.

After completing the kill, Nan Liujing sighed in his heart how much the golden dragon body improved his strength and attack power, but his expression was still calm, pretending to be calm to the end.

"River water has no taste. How about adding some sugar to it?"

Ye Xinglan pretended not to hear: "Although the actual combat power of a soul beast cannot be fully determined by age, the Green Bush Wolf is, after all, a thousand-year-old level. You didn't even use your soul skills, so how did you kill it?"

"Didn't you see it?" Nan Liujing said with a smile.

Ye Xinglan's face froze. She did see it, but the key point... the key point was that she didn't understand it.

It turns out that a one-ring soul master can really kill a thousand-year-old soul beast, and it is not what the textbooks say that only a two-ring soul master can match it.

"Don't worry about it. Killing a green bush wolf is nothing." Nan Liujing took away the spiritual power and received another hundred years of commission.

To be honest, this green bush wolf is not as powerful as the 'Yuhao Happy Beast'.

It’s nothing... A black line crossed Ye Xinglan’s forehead. She had been chased for a kilometer or two.

Looking at Nan Liujing's back, Ye Xinglan seemed to want to remember it deeply. She said in a deep voice: "My name is Ye Xinglan, what's yours?"

"Lu Mingfei." Ye Changming had already told Ye Xinglan his name. Now Nan Liujing wanted to tease this girl, so he simply didn't use her real name.

"Lu Mingfei, I will remember you." Ye Xinglan stared at Nan Liujing with eyes as blue as the sky.

From the moment she awakened her martial soul, the Star God Sword, her father told her to constantly temper her heart with the sword, and the best way to temper her heart was to challenge those who shocked her heart.

Nan Liujing ignored the other party's eyes full of fighting spirit and said calmly: "Do you want to form a team?"

Ye Xinglan's eyes moved slightly: "Is it okay?"

"No." Nan Liujing shook his head.

Ye Xinglan was stunned and said angrily, "Then you asked me if I want to form a team?"

Nan Liujing said with a smile: "I just asked casually, who knew you would really agree."

After saying that, he carried the Panlong Stick and walked away.

Ye Xinglan clenched the Star God Sword tightly in his right hand, exhaled deeply, and forced himself to calm down.

"Asshole. If I could fight you...if I hadn't run out of soul power, I would have to compete with you to see who's better."

She snorted coldly and planned to find a safe place to recover her soul power.

"Hey, do you want to actually form a team?"

Just as Ye Xinglan was walking to the side cursing, she suddenly heard the bastard calling her again.

Ye Xinglan ignored it completely.

"Follow me and you will learn practical skills faster." A bewitching voice came.

Ye Xinglan paused.

There was a gentle smile on Nan Liujing's handsome face.

Based on his memories from his previous life, he knew how dedicated Ye Xinglan was to combat training. You could say she was arrogant and had a bad personality, but you couldn't deny that this girl's martial arts talent was really strong, and she had awakened her sword spirit at such a young age.

The last person to clearly awaken the sword spirit was Ji Juechen during the Douluo Dalu II period.

"Follow me if you want." Nan Liujing really turned around and left this time.

Ye Xinglan turned his head with a complicated expression, and after a moment of silence, he chose to follow.

The cruelty of the Soul Beast Forest was far beyond her imagination. The strength of one person could never be compared to that of two people.

She quickened her pace and soon was walking shoulder to shoulder with Nan Liujing. Although they were both six years old, Nan Liujing was still a few centimeters taller than her.

"We need to find a place for you to recover your soul power first." Nan Liujing became alert again, keeping a close eye on the dangers that might appear in the nearby bushes.

Ye Xinglan was stunned and whispered, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. It's normal for partners to help each other." Nan Liujing said casually.

partner?

Ye Xinglan has been honing his swordsmanship at home since he was a child and has never had any so-called friends. When he suddenly heard this word, his mind became dazed.

She secretly glanced at Nan Liujing's profile, wondering what he was thinking.

Soon, Nan Liujing found a suitable place with a wide view for Ye Xinglan to recover his soul power.

Ye Xinglan sat cross-legged, emitting a pale yellow soul light.

Nan Liujing stood in front of her, looking up at the sky, feeling an indescribable sense of depression in his heart.

It seemed as if dark clouds were beginning to gather over the sky.
