Douluo Continent: My name is Yang Jian, and I achieved sainthood through my physical body.

Chapter 35 Dust Heart: What kind of monster is this?!

In the distance, Yue Guan and Gu Rong stopped fighting at the same time and turned to look in their direction.

Yue Guan's face was filled with shock and worry.

Gu Rong's expression changed from confident to surprised and doubtful.

He sensed it.

That seemingly unremarkable short-haired white dog, at the moment of its transformation, actually exuded a rather strong aura.

No, no, no, I must be overthinking it.

Even the strongest one cannot compare to Chen Xin's ninth soul skill.

Yang Jian is doomed.

The light gradually faded.

The smoke and dust slowly settled.

-

Chen Xin hovered in the air, panting heavily.

The ninth soul skill was extremely taxing, and even he found it somewhat strenuous.

But he had a confident smile on his face.

With both gods and demons slain, there were no survivors.

however.

His smile lasted only a second before freezing completely on his face.

He saw a huge figure burst out of the smoke and dust.

Howling Celestial Dog!

It had a few shallow sword marks on its body, and a few strands of its silvery-white fur had been cut off, but overall it was intact.

It withstood two strikes from a god and a demon, and was almost unharmed.

Chen Xin's pupils suddenly contracted to their maximum size.

This is impossible!

His dual strikes of gods and demons were something even a level 95 Title Douluo wouldn't dare to take head-on. How could this detached beast spirit, without even a single spirit ring, possibly—

He didn't have time to think.

Because the Celestial Hound had already rushed in front of him!

The speed was so fast that even he couldn't react.

Chen Xin hurriedly raised the Seven Kill Sword to block, but it was too late.

The celestial hound opened its mouth wide and bit his left arm.

The sound of bones breaking was clearly audible.

"ah--!"

Chen Xin cried out in pain as blood gushed from his severed arm.

His left arm, from the elbow down, was neatly torn off by the Howling Celestial Dog.

Chen Xin retreated dozens of meters, his left hand covering his severed arm, blood seeping continuously from between his fingers.

His face was as pale as paper, cold sweat poured down his forehead, and the confidence and composure in his eyes had completely vanished, leaving only deep shock and disbelief.

He stared at the celestial hound, which resembled a divine beast, and his mind went blank.

He was hit head-on by his own ninth soul skill, but was completely unharmed.

He still had the strength to tear off one of his own arms.

What kind of monster is this?

How could there be such a powerful detached beast spirit?

"Howling Celestial Dog, bring Ancient Banyan Tree over too."

Yang Jian's tone was indifferent.

"Woof!"

The Celestial Hound responded and vanished from its spot in an instant.

In the distance, Gu Rong was panting heavily, his eyes fixed on Yue Guan, a cruel smile on his face.

He was unaware of what had happened on Yang Jian's side. Chen Xin's ninth soul skill was too powerful, with smoke and dust obscuring the sky and making it impossible to see the battle situation.

But he was certain that Yang Jian was dead.

Unless it's Qian Daoliu from the Spirit Hall, no one can survive Chen Xin's dual strikes of God and Demon.

nobody.

"Chrysanthemum Pass, your little genius has already—" Gu Rong turned to look at Yue Guan, the smile on his lips about to bloom, but suddenly froze.

Suddenly, a white figure appeared in front of him.

fast!

It was so fast that his eyes couldn't keep up!

Gu Rong's pupils suddenly contracted, and he subconsciously wanted to use a defensive soul skill.

However, there was no time to mobilize the soul power.

A huge claw slammed down.

"boom--!"

The ground shook violently, and smoke and dust billowed into the sky.

Yue Guan stood frozen in place, staring dumbfounded at the scene before him.

Gu Rong, a level 95 Title Douluo with a Bone Dragon Martial Soul, was known for his formidable defense, yet he was slapped into the ground like that?

"Cough cough cough!"

A huge pit several meters deep had sunk into the ground, and the ancient banyan tree lay at the bottom of the pit, coughing up mouthfuls of blood.

His bone armor was mostly shattered, a section of his chest was caved in, and countless ribs were broken.

He tried to stand up, but found that all the bones in his body felt like they were falling apart, and he couldn't muster any strength at all.

The celestial dog jumped into the pit, grabbed Gu Rong's clothes with its teeth, and picked him up like a chick.

The next second, it reappeared beside Yang Jian and threw the ancient banyan tree in front of Chen Xin.

"Bang."

Gu Rong fell to the ground, spitting out another mouthful of blood. His face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were filled with terror and confusion.

He didn't even understand what had happened.

Chen Xin's face also turned pale.

He looked at the ancient banyan tree lying on the ground, barely alive, and then at the Howling Celestial Dog squatting beside Yang Jian, his mind blank.

This dog————

A single slap severely injured the ancient banyan tree?

He knew better than anyone how strong the banyan tree's defenses were.

With the bone armor of the Bone Dragon Martial Soul, plus the enhancement of level 95 soul power, even his Seven Kill Sword couldn't possibly have stunted Gu Rong like this in a single strike.

But this dog did it.

a slap.

Chen Xin raised her head, and a trace of fear reappeared in her eyes as she looked at Yang Jian.

At twelve years old, a Soul King, with his first four Soul Rings all being ten-thousand-year-old, and twin Martial Souls, these are already astonishing enough.

But his second martial soul was even more terrifying than his first.

What kind of monster is this?

"cough----"

Chen Xin struggled to his feet, blood still seeping from his severed arm, the hollow in his chest making each breath feel like torture.

He looked at the Celestial Hound, his lips trembling, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Yang Jian looked down at the two disheveled Title Douluos.

A cold smile curved at the corner of his lips.

To be honest, he didn't expect the Celestial Hound to be so powerful.

For the past six years, the Celestial Hound has only come out to absorb the essence of the sun and moon in the mornings and evenings, and has never made a move.

He knew that Xiaotian Dog had become stronger, but he didn't expect it to be this strong.

One slap and he's crippled a level 95 Title Douluo.

He withstood Chen Xin's ninth soul skill without sustaining a scratch.

Such strength is truly amazing!

Yang Jian wiped the blood from around his eyes, held the three-pointed double-edged sword, and stood firmly in place.

"You've already seen it yourself." His voice was perfectly calm. "You can't outrun the speed of the Celestial Hound, so don't even think about escaping."

Chen Xin and Gu Rong exchanged a glance, their expressions extremely grim.

Of course they've seen it.

The speed of the Celestial Hound is so fast that you can't react in time, and it's impossible for it to run away.

Gu Rong gritted his teeth, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.

His martial spirit is a bone dragon.

Bone dragons possess spatial attributes.

Although I am seriously injured now, if I fight with all my might, I may still be able to escape alive.

"Eighth Soul Skill, Spatial Gate!"

Gu Rong suddenly raised his right arm, and all the remaining soul power surged wildly.

A pitch-black spatial rift tore open behind him.

It gradually expanded into a portal large enough for two people to pass through.

Chen Xin's pupils contracted, and he instantly understood Gu Rong's intention.

He struggled to his feet and rushed toward the portal.

Yue Guan's expression changed: "This is bad!"

Yang Jian stood still.

He didn't even look at the portal; he just gave the Celestial Hound a glance.

"roar--!"

The celestial hound howled to the sky, its voice shaking the heavens and the earth.

The portal suddenly trembled violently, and the black light on its surface began to flicker erratically.

Gu Rong's face turned deathly pale instantly. He could clearly feel that the connection between himself and the spatial gate was being severed by a tyrannical and unreasonable force.
