Douluo Continent, Boss's Martial Soul, Geniuses Work for Me

"A diversionary tactic?"

Ling Qingyue and Zhu Zhuqing both turned their gazes to Shang Luo.

Shangluo lowered his voice, his eyes sharp.

"Forced entry won't work."

He quickly assigned tactics: "Qingyue, your Frost Moon Sword has ice element, and its coldness is effective against the Blazing Tiger. You lure it away. Zhuqing, you are the fastest, so you are responsible for luring away the Death Knell Beetle. Although it has strong defense, its speed is its weakness."

"Just buy me three minutes!"

"Three minutes?"

The two women covered their mouths in surprise.

"Boss, then you..." Ling Qingyue looked at Shang Luo with concern.

Zhu Zhuqing directly opposed it.

"Even if the two of us lure away these two thousand-year-old soul beasts, the remaining dozen or so soul beasts in the forest are still ferocious. Even a Soul Master wouldn't be able to escape unscathed."

"Besides, the battle will be over in three minutes?"

"Boss, how about we reconsider...?"

Zhu Zhuqing's voice held a hint of pleading, hoping he would change his mind.

Although the boss's support abilities are terrifying, his combat power is definitely among the worst. Isn't this just suicide?

Shang Luo turned around and looked at Zhu Zhuqing, a confident smile curving his lips.

He spoke in a relaxed tone.

"Don't worry, I will take care of the Emerald Swan as quickly as possible when the lake shore is at its weakest."

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing and Ling Qingyue remained silent, neither of them believing that Shang Luo was a reckless person.

The boss must have his reasons for doing this.

The two women exchanged a glance and saw the determination in each other's eyes.

"If anything unusual happens on the lakeshore, we'll come back to rescue you immediately!"

"action!"

Ling Qingyue charged out first, a sharp sword light piercing straight for the face of the Blazing Tiger!

"roar!"

The sword energy instantly enraged the fire-type soul beast. Flames erupted all over its body, and with a roar, it chased after the blue figure into the dense forest without hesitation.

Almost simultaneously.

Zhu Zhuqing darted out like a shadow, her dark claw marks carrying glimmers of starlight, and landed precisely on the head of the Deathstroke Beetle!

Although it did not cause any real harm, it successfully attracted its hatred.

The death knell beetle let out a deep, angry roar and strode heavily as it chased after the agile black shadow.

Seeing the two guardian spirit beasts leave, Shang Luo emerged from the dense forest and twisted his neck.

The bones crackled and popped.

Finally, I have a chance to make a move.

He had long wanted to test his combat power with the enhancement of two god-level martial souls.

Let's start with this jade swan and practice!

Om-!

A surge of pure, icy power and stellar energy rushed wildly into Shang Luo's body!

Sensing the fluctuations of soul power at the edge of the lake, dozens of soul beasts hidden in the forest roared and swarmed out.

Armored rhinoceros, thorny deer, crested python...

All sorts of bizarre spirit beasts circled around the center of the lake, roaring wildly at Shangluo!

The emerald swans in the lake proudly raised their heads, their emerald green eyes full of disdain.

It holds an extremely prestigious position in this lake.

There are many guardians.

Humanity, lacking even this crucial element, cannot pose a threat to it.

"This is... being mocked by a dead swan."

Shangluo grinned.

He made a grasping motion with his left hand. Instantly, a Frost Moon Sword, condensed from icy power, took shape.

He swung his sword forward, and dozens of tiny, dense sword energies poured out in a fan shape!

Chi Chi Chi -!

A chill permeated the air, and the first few fanged wolves and thorn deer were instantly covered in frost, their movements becoming extremely sluggish, as if they had sunk into a swamp.

At the same time, the moonlight climbed into the sky and poured down.

Night has officially fallen!

Star Power activated! All attributes tripled!

Shangluo felt his Ren and Du meridians instantly open up, and starlight merged into his body, transforming into a continuous stream of soul power like a tsunami!

"Netherworld Thrust".

"Netherworld Hundred Claws!"

Shang Luo instantly unleashed two soul skills, leaving afterimages in the darkness like a ghost.

With the added speed, Shang Luo would use his Frost Moon Sword, imbued with the power of stars, to precisely pierce every vital point of the soul beast each time he appeared!

puff!puff!puff!

Blood splattered everywhere, and in just thirty seconds, there were seven or eight animal corpses on the ground.

The power of the stars can ignore armor, and when combined with the extreme sharpness of the Frost Moon Sword, the sum of its parts is greater than the sum of its parts!

One word to describe:

Chopping melons and cutting vegetables!

Under Shangluo's godlike, unpredictable speed and extreme attacks, the beast horde fell one by one as if being mowed down.

He kills soul beasts so fast that he can instantly kill any beast under a thousand years old! Those over a thousand years old can only last three moves at most!

The emerald swan in the lake was completely dumbfounded. How could all the guardian spirit beasts have died before it even used its skill?!

Ten seconds later.

"roar!"

The only thousand-year-old armored rhinoceros on the field charged wildly toward Shangluo, like a small mountain.

The armor had three distinct stripes.

The fourth point is also vaguely apparent.

Over three thousand years of cultivation!

This level of armored rhinoceros boasts unparalleled defense; even a powerful offensive Soul King wouldn't dare claim to break its defense in a single blow.

But Shangluo insisted on testing his limits!

"Oniyou Zangetsu!"

Dense stellar power fell from the sky, transforming into dense specks of starlight that clung to the icy blue Frost Moon Sword.

A phantom with a ghostly face and a wolf's body, like a beast's soul, was attached to the sword.

Simultaneously.

Shang Luo's soul power rapidly drained away, all of it converging into the Frost Moon Sword.

Shang Luo's eyes were icy cold, filled with murderous intent.

Instead of retreating, he advanced and swung his sword!

A flash of sword light, like frost and snow falling, or like stars falling.

There was no earth-shattering collision sound, only a soft "plop"!

Shang Luo's figure passed by the armored rhinoceros.

The armored rhinoceros charged forward a few more steps, then crashed to the ground.

The hardest horn had broken off, the cut smooth as a mirror, sealed by ice, not a drop of blood flowing out.

A complete and utter crushing defeat!

The remaining weaker soul beasts scattered and fled.

Shangluo let out a long breath and gazed at the tip of the sword with delight.

I never expected the combination skill created by the fusion of Frost Moon Sword and Netherworld Star Cat to be so powerful!

"Let's call this move—Froststar Flash!"

The center of the lake.

Although the jade swan has only cultivated for a little over two thousand years, it is of noble breed and extremely intelligent.

But for some reason, it didn't even make a move to resist, and seemed extremely weak.

It let out a desperate cry and flapped its wings as if trying to take flight.

Shangluo looked up, his mocking gaze fixed on it.

"it's over."

A flash of golden light disappeared in an instant, piercing through the head of the jade swan.

The mournful cries abruptly ceased.

The purple soul ring, radiating a rich life force, slowly emerged.

Surprisingly, several exquisite green patterns were attached to the spirit ring.

Just as Shang Luo decided to absorb the soul ring, a strange death knell tolled from the dense forest where Zhu Zhuqing had left.

"not good!"

Shangluo was startled.

He seems to have forgotten one of the Deathstroke Beetle's core abilities.

A soul-piercing scream!

……

In the dense forest, a hundred meters away from the center of the lake.

Zhu Zhuqing was as light as a swallow.

Since her martial soul advanced to the Netherworld Star Cat, her agility attribute has increased significantly.

It is already comparable to a typical agility-based Soul Master.

After nightfall, amplified by three times the power of the stars, she possesses the speed of a Soul King, making it easier for her to stalk a Deathstroke Beetle than drinking water.

At that moment, a series of beastly roars came from the center of the lake, causing Zhu Zhuqing's heart to clench.

The boss's abilities are so extraordinary, his combat strength must not be strong, otherwise why would he need a support-type spirit ring!

Zhu Zhuqing felt anxious, her beautiful eyes constantly glancing towards the center of the lake behind her.

Just as she was lost in thought, a mesmerizing bell suddenly rang out!

The bell-shaped horns on the head of the death knell beetle kept shaking, sending out waves of eerie mental shocks!

Zhu Zhuqing was not good at mental power to begin with, and under the soul scream of the Thousand-Year Death Knell Beetle, she instantly lost control of her body!

Her consciousness was blurred, and her own voice kept echoing in her mind:

"I want to go back...to help Shangluo..."

"I want to go back..."

"I want……"

"What...did I need to do again?"

Zhu Zhuqing's delicate body went limp, and she fell directly from the tree branch.

midair.

In her dazed state, she stiffly turned her head.

What came into view was a sharp and foul-smelling horn.
