Douluo Continent: On Becoming a God Through Science

Chapter 127 One Dragon Suppresses Two Beasts, Feng Zhenglong's Choice

As the invaded party, Feng Zhenglong must have reacted only after the Thunder Dragon Eagle and the Purple Lightning Demon Ape.

However, relying on his speed advantage, Feng Zhenglong overtook his opponent despite starting late.

Before the Thunder Dragon Eagle could react, the Wind Dragon had closed the distance by hundreds of meters in an instant and ripped out a claw from a distance.

Because the two are moving towards each other, the distance of this claw can be said to be just right!

The solidified wind force formed a claw shadow a hundred meters high, and its speed was even faster than that of the Wind Dragon.

However, the Thunder Dragonhawks came prepared.

Countless tiny arcs of lightning suddenly exploded on his body, forming an insulating layer composed of electric current, which withstood the claw shadow of Feng Zhenglong without causing any damage.

At the same time, the Purple Lightning Demon Ape on the ground pried out a boulder that was as tall as two people from the ground, and then, with electricity bursting from its body, it hurled the boulder at Feng Zhenglong!

Accelerated by the electric current, the boulder was like a super electromagnetic cannon, moving so fast that even Feng Zhenglong's reaction speed couldn't keep up.

Compared to these seventy or eighty thousand-year-old soul beasts, this boulder is only the size of an ordinary brick, yet its power should not be underestimated.

The invisible wind armor on one of Wind Claw's wings was instantly pierced, and flesh and blood flew out.

"roar!"

Feng Zhenglong glanced at the Purple Lightning Demon Ape below, then suddenly leaped up several thousand meters into the air, before flipping sideways and flying out of the Demon Hand area.

It seems that it doesn't want its precious cultivation ground to be damaged.

By using the Demon Hand area to restrict Feng Zhenglong's movements, they successfully created an advantage by inflicting a wound. The Thunder Dragon Eagle and the Purple Lightning Demon Ape exchanged glances and growled in celebration before quickly catching up.

They were not worried that the Wind Dragon would simply escape.

As the overlord of the Calamity Mountain Range, if it flees in defeat when challenged, it will be abandoned by other soul beasts and will never have the chance to become the ruler again. Naturally, it will have to hand over this most precious cultivation place to others.

Moreover, they knew Feng Zhenglong's pride; this guy would probably die in battle rather than choose to run away.

However, without such pride and persistence, it probably wouldn't have been able to stand out from the crowd of near-top-tier soul beasts.

"That claw shadow from afar... it's very similar to my 'Wind and Amorous Claw,' quite a valuable reference. The other two soul beasts' moves are also quite impressive."

You Chen analyzed the situation but did not immediately give chase.

It's a pity we can't see the details, but... if we want to observe the battle clearly, given the strength and type of these three, it must be a high-intensity mobile war, which means You Chen has to be a war correspondent who is constantly on high-intensity movement.

It would be strange if they didn't get caught.

Therefore, You Chen ultimately chose to take advantage of the time when Feng Zhenglong was away from his nest to determine and change his sniping position.

He believes...

"Feng Zhenglong will not lose!"

The best time to snipe is when the enemy returns to their base after a fierce battle!

When You Chen finally emerged from the jagged, strangely shaped cave, the distant celestial phenomena had already undergone a dramatic change.

Even with You Chen's keen eyesight, he could only see a rough outline through the layers of clouds.

At this very moment, Feng Zhenglong soared into the sky, determined to first eliminate his opponent, Thunder Dragon Eagle!

Feng Zhenglong may be arrogant, but he is by no means stupid!

If it really came down to one against two, even he would be at a disadvantage.

So, all we need to do is forcibly divide the battlefield and turn it into one-on-one!

Their goals were immediately set!

The Thunder Dragon Eagle should try to pull the Wind Dragon into a low altitude, bringing it within range of the Purple Lightning Demon Ape's attack.

Meanwhile, Feng Zhenglong took to the air as much as possible to prevent the Purple Lightning Demon Ape from interfering with the battle.

Looking up from the ground, the two enormous monsters, nearly the same size, appeared as two black dots.

They may appear to be close together, but if you consider their actual size, you'll know that the distance between them is measured in kilometers.

The two moved at supersonic speeds high in the sky, looking from a distance like two charming little bees dancing, but upon closer inspection, one would realize the fierce battle they were engaged in!

Both being near-top-tier soul beasts, their physical attributes are similar, with Feng Zhenglong having a slight advantage.

However, Feng Zhenglong showed no intention of engaging in close combat. Instead, he frequently drew upon the surrounding natural energy, and with a flap of his wings, several narrow "winged wind blades" shot out at high speed.

With the support of the raging natural energy, this move, which was originally just a normal attack, became much more powerful, making it impossible for the Thunder Dragon Eagle to ignore.

Conversely, although his ranged attacks could damage the Wind Dragon, the damage was far less than that caused by the opponent's invisible wind armor.

After a few exchanges, Thunder Dragonhawk realized he was clearly at a disadvantage.

"Hey!"

How could Thunder Dragonhawk possibly watch itself enter a state of slow death?

If ranged attacks don't work, then close combat will!

Thunder Dragonhawk's eyes were cold and sharp. He knew that his physical strength was inferior to his opponent's, but he did not hesitate much when making this decision.

Compared to human soul masters, pure soul beasts are obviously more decisive.

The thunderous energy stored within the Thunder Dragon Eagle erupted instantly.

Energy fields always surge around higher levels of energy.

At this moment, the Thunder Dragonhawk undoubtedly became the center of heaven and earth.

As Feng Zhenglong showed signs of alertness, the Thunder Dragon Eagle cried out, drawing the high concentration of wind-elemental power that Feng Zhenglong had left in mid-air to itself.

With wind and thunder merging, the Thunder Dragon Eagle was enveloped in terrifying heavenly wind and thunder, and suddenly charged forward at a speed surpassing that of the Wind Conquering Dragon!

boom!

In mid-air, it seemed as if a series of enormous thunderclaps were exploding.

The impact of the battle between the two powerful, high-age soul beasts caused the energy of the Disaster Mountain Range to be gathered. In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky, and wind, thunder, rain, and lightning filled the entire sky. The sweeping energy caused the soul beasts in the core area to retreat.

The world, darkened by the clouds, was filled with only two silhouettes constantly intersecting and colliding in the rain.

The Thunder Dragon Eagle, which withstood the wind and thunder of the heavens with its own body, unleashed an astonishing speed that forced Feng Zhenglong to respond to the close-quarters combat it had provoked.

Then, without them even realizing it, their altitude kept dropping, from 10,000 meters to 9,000 meters, 8,000 meters...

Perhaps it was the growing weight of the rain that made them fly harder, or perhaps it was the Thunder Dragon Eagle's violence that made the Wind Dragon struggle to cope. Before it could even react, both of them had already descended to an altitude of one thousand meters.

A huge, bright purple figure suddenly burst out from the rain curtain; it was none other than the Purple Lightning Demon Ape, leaping high into the air!

It leaped directly onto the back of the Wind Dragon, unleashing its full power with purple lightning, attempting to press the Wind Dragon down from the sky!

Thunder Dragonhawks, of course, would not let go of the opportunity created by their ally and rival.

The Thunder Dragon Eagle, its body charred black and covered in cuts, suddenly unleashed its last remaining wind and thunder power, shooting out like a javelin and crashing into Feng Zhenglong!

"roar!!!"

A deafening roar.

Suddenly, the invisible wind armor on the seemingly defeated Wind Dragon was released, and a tornado storm that stretched straight up to the sky erupted from it. It not only blasted away the Purple Lightning Demon Ape that it was holding, but also threw the ape out as a shield.

Immediately following were two earth-shattering cries of agony!

The Purple Lightning Demon Ape and the Thunder Dragon Eagle collided with each other and plummeted from the sky.

If the Thunder Dragon Eagle's damage level was 80% and the Purple Lightning Demon Ape's was only 10% before the collision, then after the collision, the Purple Lightning Demon Ape's damage level jumped to over 70%!

boom!

The two giant beasts crashed to the ground with a thud, creating a huge crater.

The height at which the Thunder Dragon Eagle and the Wind Dragon were fighting had been decreasing until now, when they were only a thousand meters high. Otherwise, this impact would have killed both of the already severely injured soul beasts on the spot.

Even so, both of them were now half dead.

In contrast to the miserable state of the two soul beasts, Feng Zhenglong spread its wings and soared in the sky. Although it was also covered in wounds, it gave people the feeling of a war medal.

Its two front paws are crossed and hugged to its chest in a very human-like manner, looking down at the two fallen and crawling beasts, like a high and mighty king.

The wounds on the two giant beasts continuously oozed blood that could fill a river, but this enormous amount of blood was quickly washed away and dispersed by the raging wind and rain.

With expressions of resentment and fear, they ultimately supported each other and chose to retreat...

Feng Zhenglong did not pursue them, ignoring their departure.

Its injuries were much lighter than the other two, but they were still serious; in the game's terms, it had lost half its health bar.

The principle that a cornered beast will fight back is something that wild animals living in nature understand better than anyone else.

Feng Zhenglong knew that he could definitely defeat the two beasts if he did his best, but the price would inevitably be worsening his injuries.

And what will this give it?

Even without the Thunder Dragon Eagle and the Purple Lightning Demon Ape, other soul beasts would still challenge it after the two, and might even think that it was in a state of emptiness due to excessive physical exertion, so they would fight even harder.

If we keep the two beasts, we can not only alert other soul beasts and consolidate our own powerful position, but we can also use them to block some unnecessary disturbances.

Feng Zhenglong naturally knows how to make the right choice.

After the two beasts left, a hint of fatigue finally appeared on Feng Zhenglong's proud dragon head.

It didn't unleash the supersonic speed it used in battle; instead, it flew towards its nest at a normal speed that wouldn't put too much strain on its body...

Thud—

A bullet pierced through the rain and went straight through Feng Zhenglong's collarbone.

"roar!!!"

The ruler of the Scourge Mountains let out a scream filled with rage and agony.

If it hadn't turned its head at the crucial moment, this inexplicable thing might have pierced its head directly!

Even so, it only made the injury worse, with large amounts of blood flowing uncontrollably from its neck.

The power of this Douluo Continent version of Barrett is beyond doubt; ordinary humans hit by it would only be reduced to ashes.

This blow blasted a huge hole with a diameter of nearly one meter at the junction of Feng Zhenglong's collarbone and neck!

If it weren't for its enormous size, this one-meter-long wound would have severed its neck and caused its head to fall to the ground. Even so, it severed nearly a third of the connection between the Wind Dragon's neck and body.

Once the bullet was fired, You Chen's killing intent could no longer be concealed.

With its neck injured, Feng Zhenglong dared not twist its neck at all. It turned its head to look at the human soul master who had just put away a strange black long pole object two thousand meters away from its own nest!

Human Soul Master!

When Feng Zhenglong saw the instigator, his eyes instantly turned bloodshot!

There is no doubt that spirit beasts, especially intelligent, high-age spirit beasts, harbor rejection and hatred towards humans.

Territorial competition and fighting among soul beasts is the law of survival, but if they encounter a human soul master, even if it is one of the two soul beasts that just became enemies with Feng Zhenglong, it will not hesitate to join forces to kill them!

"roar!!!"

Feng Zhenglong roared once again, but this roar had a different meaning than the previous one.

This is its way of warning all soul beasts that are over ten thousand years old and can understand its language: a powerful soul master has invaded!

Having completed this task, Feng Zhenglong finally decided to take action.

The shout was a warning, not a cry for help!

It will use all its strength to kill the Soul Master who plotted against it!

The energy of heaven and earth surged once again.

Around the Wind Dragon, who unleashed all its power without hesitation, the storm raged even more fiercely.

"So, rainy days are definitely not a good time for sniping."

You Chen made a casual remark, and the next moment he completed the Martial Soul Possession and complete Dragon Transformation, instantly becoming a small dragon-man.

Compared to Feng Zhenglong's height of tens of meters, it was like a tiny ant, but the power it exuded was in no way inferior, dividing this world into two distinct halves.

*Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle—*

Feng Zhenglong unleashed a deadly attack right from the start, unleashing a compressed tornado of breath that shot out from its mouth at an astonishing speed, its terrifying power instantly pulverizing the surrounding rocks.

A black soul ring flashed, and You Chen activated the Starlight Path, using the increased speed to dodge the tornado's breath.

However, Feng Zhenglong's body had already closed in, and instead of the previous claw shadow, a huge dragon claw reached out directly, trying to tear You Chen apart.

Seeing Feng Zhenglong's choice, You Chen was not surprised but laughed!

Instead of dodging or avoiding, he used his fists, which were wrapped in compressed storm energy, to meet the attack head-on!

Soul Bone Skill: Air Compression + Wind Fist!

Om-! ! !

The massive sonic boom ripped open a thick layer of the surrounding earth, sending countless fragments of rock and soil flying.

Upon impact, Feng Zhenglong, whose physical body appeared even more terrifying, was sent flying backward!

Soul beasts, due to their enormous size, generally have superior physical attributes and can be considered to be one level higher than soul masters of the same level.

In other words, Feng Zhenglong's strength has reached the level of a Title Douluo, but his physical strength is already close to that of a Super Douluo!

However, relying on the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Force, two 100,000-year soul bones, and three 10,000-year soul rings, plus the support of the Starlight Avenue, You Chen's physical strength has steadily reached the Title Douluo realm, only slightly weaker than Feng Zhenglong!

The problem is, how could Feng Zhenglong's dragon claws exert force and soul power application compare to You Chen's Wind Fist?

Moreover, Feng Zhenglong is currently severely injured!

With the added enhancement of his 100,000-year-old soul skill, Air Compression, how could Feng Zhenglong possibly withstand the power of this punch?! How could he possibly possibly withstand it?!

Even with its vast experience as a dragon, Feng Zhenglong was still somewhat bewildered by this scene that was beyond its comprehension.

When did a human soul master who looks so weak become able to gain the upper hand in a physical clash with a soul beast?

Ke Youchen wouldn't care whether Feng Zhenglong was confused or not.

Take advantage of his illness to kill him!

Even after being injured, Feng Zhenglong's overall strength was already below You Chen's!

If the chance of successfully hunting a kill was less than 50% before, it's now definitely over 90%!

What You Chen is focused on right now is not whether he can hunt down the Wind Dragon!

But what's even more important after that is how to safely absorb a spirit ring!

Then naturally we must kill Feng Zhenglong as quickly and with an absolute advantage as possible!

To absorb a spirit ring and evolve your martial spirit, you must ensure that your martial spirit is in a perfect state.

This means we can't use Spirit Realm Burst!

You Chen chose to switch back to his main form. With the Starlight Avenue enhancement still active, he used the auxiliary version of Air Compression again, along with his current strongest soul ring skill, the 70,000-year-old soul ring skill Air Blade!

Countless air blades suddenly erupted, seemingly cutting through space itself!

Even though Feng Zhenglong finally reacted, half of his body was still directly hit by the air blade!

puff--.

Blood gushed and sprayed out like a waterfall.

Feng Zhenglong's gaze swept over You Chen, showing no fear or terror, but only calm.

Even after suffering such a severe blow, it still made a ruthless decision and soared straight into the sky!

run away!

This is something it would never have done in the past, when it was proud to be the ruler of the Calamity Mountains!

But at this moment, it did exactly that!

It wasn't out of fear of death, but rather... that she didn't want this powerful human to obtain her spirit ring!

That was undoubtedly supersonic movement.

Upon seeing Feng Zhenglong's choice, You Chen's expression immediately darkened.

If air compression is used as an active skill, due to the high soul power consumption of its 100,000-year-limited skill, You Chen's soul power will be almost exhausted after using it once at level 70.

As a support skill, its cost isn't that terrifying, but it's still considerable.

Even though he had consumed a high-level Soul Power Pill beforehand, his Soul Power recovery speed was extremely fast, and his Soul Power had reached a level close to that of a Soul Douluo.

After using so many high-level soul skills in succession, his soul power reserves were basically depleted.

This greatly limits his movement speed.

With its speed that disregards its own life, Feng Zhenglong can fly a great distance in a short time.

But distance is only one factor.

Most importantly... Feng Zhenglong, who was already severely injured, was very likely to die on the way.

Even if he left a mental imprint on Feng Zhenglong, once the soul beast had been dead for more than an hour, it would be too late to fix it even if he arrived later!

"We can't let it leave the Cataclysmic Mountains; we must keep it here!"

The jumble of thoughts actually lingered in You Chen's mind for no more than a second.

The reality is that after Feng Zhenglong soared into the sky, You Chen also took to the air and launched a ranged attack on Feng Zhenglong.

You Chen's fastest move so far is a Roar of the Wind Dragon that cuts through the rain and stretches across the sky.
