Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 552 Ah, opportunity has arrived, it can't be stopped.

Another gunshot rang out, and Huo Yuhao lost his footing, crashing headfirst into the bloody mud.

He tried to struggle to get up, but he couldn't, because the shooting continued, bullet after bullet hitting his body, which had been rebuilt after the replacement of his soul bone.

Dai Mubai wanted to shield Huo Yuhao from the repeated gunshots, but he had already separated from Zhu Zhuqing and his soul power was greatly depleted, so he had no time to defend or return to help.

Huo Yuhao's left arm was also pierced. After his arms and legs were partially replaced by soul bones, they became even more resilient than before, especially his legs.

But precisely because of this, the shots didn't blow his limbs apart completely, but only partially.

Similar to him, Tang Wutong suddenly became extremely painful. She wasn't directly shot, but her body twisted as if it had been pierced through.

"Longing...heartbreak...weed..." she uttered these words with difficulty.

Because she was the one who consumed the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Grass, she is actually the owner of this life contract.

However, this contract must be two-way; that's the rule.

"Wu Tong!!" Da Ming, who was on the battlefield, noticed the situation below and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

However, this moment of distraction led to him being accidentally injured again by the Black Dragon Sword, followed closely by the Undying Poison Hammer.

"Damn it, it feels so good to hit you, you beast, with something we've captured." Poisonous Undying laughed heartily. He remembered that back in the far north, Qian Renxue seemed to have used something she had captured to deal with Tang Hao.

This Clear Sky Hammer is a true pseudo-divine artifact. Logically speaking, Tang Hao, with his level of divine official cultivation, shouldn't have been worthy of it, but unfortunately, he had powerful backers. However, this also led to his separation from the Clear Sky Hammer, which was subsequently seized.

"Can you still use the same move that killed Taotie Xuanzi before?" Di Tian asked.

"The Yellow Springs and the Azure Stars?" Poisonous Immortal asked, "How do you know it was me who killed Xuanzi?"

"I learned this from them during the beast tide," Di Tian replied. "If you can use it again, try injecting the toxin into its body. I might be able to kill it without the Dragon God Claw."

Poison Undying hesitated for a moment: "I'm afraid poison won't work. The poison you're talking about isn't my own, but the young master's..."

Poison Immortal quickly relayed the situation to Emperor Tian via telepathy.

It seems that Di Tian only had a superficial understanding, and he only learned the truth about why he couldn't be poisoned to death later when he talked to Qian Renxue. This saddened him for a while, as he originally thought that his attack on Xuanzi was entirely due to his own strength.

However, this also made him admire Qian Renxue even more.

"..." Di Tian looked at Du Busi speechlessly.

"However, I know something else," Poison Undying said seriously, "the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique. When I obtained this hammer, the young master also gave me this captured hammer technique. I heard that this hammer technique can summon a bloodthirsty black dragon at the end. If you can enhance this energy black dragon, perhaps you will have a chance."

This is because this pseudo-divine artifact possesses a killing god domain, so Poison Undying inherited this killing nature.

"We can give it a try." Di Tian pondered for a moment and then agreed to the method.

After all, he had seen Tang Hao use this chaotic cloak before. Although it was affected by his Ten Thousand Dragons Submission, its original power and killing intent were not to be underestimated. Zi Ji was seriously injured and half-dead because of this hammer blow, and she has not fully recovered yet.

Meanwhile, Da Ming was nearly frantic with worry. He had naturally also discovered the problem with the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Grass. In fact, he knew some of the inside story, because according to the original plan, Huo Yuhao was supposed to tell him about this celestial herb at least once after visiting the Haotian Sect.

But who knew that Tang Hao had informed the four monsters in the lower realm in advance to retrieve the immortal items.

"Are we all going to be defeated here this time?" Da Ming said, trembling.

"I know how to lift this curse." A voice came from inside its body, or rather, from the mouth of its enormous dragon head.

"Aunt Yin! Do you have any ideas?" Da Ming hurriedly transmitted his voice. It turned out that Da Ming had temporarily transferred A Yin's soul, because Er Ming had already passed on the news of Tang Hao's failure to him before he died.

Since the search for the Blue Silver Emperor failed, in order to protect Tang San's mother, they had no choice but to first place her in the body of an ordinary Blue Silver Grass.

Because of Ah Yin's consciousness transfer and the absorption of the life energy of the Golden Tree, this Blue Silver Grass has reached a cultivation level of nearly 200,000 years.

This is because the Blue Silver Domain was forcibly activated, and some Blue Silver Grasses themselves have a slight ability to devour the life of other plants, not to mention Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin.

As for the Golden Tree itself, because of the nourishment it had received over the years, even though Ah Yin had left and absorbed a portion of its life force... it didn't have much cultivation over nearly two hundred thousand years, because there wasn't enough time, and also because it was just right to time its tribulation.

This ancient tree has existed for an extremely long time; otherwise, it would not be able to compete with something like the Lake of Life.

Unless one-third of its energy is removed over a very long period of time, it is impossible to shake its foundation.

Ah Yin communicated with Da Ming telepathically, saying something to him.

Da Ming's expression immediately changed, because Ah Yin said that a divine aura should be used to wash away the contract. This contract was essentially created by Tang San using immortal spiritual energy, not something of a larger scale like the rules of a plane or the rules of the universe. As long as another divine aura was used to wash it away, it could be erased.

This was actually a backup plan Tang San had left for his daughter. Originally, he planned to send Huo Yuhao to the Valley of Love and Destiny if he had the chance. No matter how much he beat or abused him, even if he was left half-dead, it wouldn't affect Tang Wutong. Because that place was a buffer zone, and he could erase the contract there if he used his divine sense.

"Da Ming, according to Xiao San, you have the bloodline of the Azure Dragon Emperor's projection within you..." Ah Yin said softly. "This is also your trump card, the foundation for your bloodline to evolve into the Azure Dragon when you were in the God Realm. Now, there is no other way. Under the siege of Di Tian and that Limitless, if we don't activate this bloodline, let alone save Wu Tong, we won't even be able to escape."

"I... I understand," Da Ming said, his teeth chattering.

At this moment, Qian Renxue had fired the last shot at Huo Yuhao, and the shot hit his throat perfectly.

She didn't want to directly destroy the opponent's spiritual sea; a shot to the throat would be enough to kill him instantly. Her goal was to forcibly extract the divine seed from his mind, and if possible, also extract the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm to see if it had any remaining life energy.

She naturally noticed Tang Wutong's unusual behavior as well. If she wasn't mistaken, the reason Tang Wutong was writhing like an earthworm in the blood on the ground with Huo Yuhao was most likely because of the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Grass. She had also noticed these two immortal herbs back at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Just then, a strange movement came from the sky, which seemed to be a divine fluctuation coming from Da Ming.

Qian Renxue put away her gun and looked up: "I was still thinking about how to manipulate the rules so that the soul rings you get would be a little different... Sigh, when opportunity knocks, there's no stopping it."

"Who's helping me?" She smiled silently.

Shield, Big, Plus~

Thank you so much! The author would like to give a special thank you to the author, Shield Star!

And to all my dear readers, you've been helping the lovely Yukiko all the way.

A look of shock flashed in Da Ming's eyes. He was a Celestial Bull Python who had cultivated to become a sub-dragon. However, he was not a pure sub-dragon; after becoming a god, he had evolved into a Celestial Divine Dragon. He did not possess the pure bloodline of a true dragon, yet he possessed power no less than that of a true dragon. (Chapter 814 of Douluo Continent IV)

In legends, there are four divine beasts, whose projections can appear in any plane of existence. They are the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Black Tortoise, and the Vermilion Bird.

On the plane of Falan, the projection of the Azure Dragon undoubtedly represents the inheritance of the Dragon Clan. Countless dragons share the bloodline of the Azure Dragon divine beast. There is only one White Tiger, the Great White Tiger Demon Emperor, but he is not the true White Tiger. The Vermilion Bird naturally represents the Phoenix lineage, shared by all Phoenix demons. However, there is not a single Black Tortoise. (Chapter 1172 of Dou Wu)

I didn't really want to quote these settings directly, but in order to exploit the bug in the dimensional rules and make Da Ming's soul ring reach the god-level when it explodes, I'll just quote them briefly.

The projection is not the original body, but it can be seen as Da Ming's evolution in the divine realm, and through this, he briefly borrowed the power of his former bloodline to reach godhood. Readers, just be aware of this; it won't affect much of the later plot.
