Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 17, Second Soul Skill: Fixed-Point Protection

"roar..."

Seeing that his palm strike hadn't caused Qian Renxue any harm, the lazy giant ape bared its teeth, a fierce glint appearing in its enormous pupils.

The lazy giant ape exerted force with its hand again, attempting a counterattack, but Qian Renxue saw through its plan. Her first spirit ring lit up, and she shouted, "First Spirit Skill! Angelic Assault!"

The first yellow soul ring lit up, and the golden halo around Qian Renxue instantly condensed towards her fist, heading straight for the Lazy Giant Ape's palm. She threw a punch, forming a golden shield. The shield slammed into the Lazy Giant Ape's palm, and the Lazy Giant Ape actually felt its soul power being suppressed or even dissolved. By the time it tried to circulate its soul power, it was too late!

"Boom! Boom boom boom!"

The lazy giant ape's hand suddenly went limp, leaving it no chance to launch a counterattack, and it was sent flying by Qian Renxue!

Qian Renxue herself was instantly exhausted, her delicate body swayed, and she almost fell from the air.

When Qian Renxue regained her footing, the Lazy Giant Ape had already reacted—just now, Qian Renxue had used the special ability of her soul skill to dodge the Lazy Giant Ape's attack and strangely suppressed the Lazy Giant Ape's soul power, which gave her the upper hand. Even so, Qian Renxue was almost exhausted, while the Lazy Giant Ape was completely unharmed!

The lazy giant ape only felt a little pain and then nothing more, but this angered it.

What did it do to deserve this?

It had just woken up and wanted to eat. Usually, when it saw other spirit beasts, they would generally avoid it. Back in the day, its father had encountered two rabbits, a giant python, and a gorilla in the core area and had never suffered a loss. When had it ever suffered such humiliation in its entire life?

"roar!"

The Lazy Giant Ape may be lazy, but it is still a wild and untamed soul beast. How could it remain indifferent to Qian Renxue's provocation?

"Empty! Empty, empty, empty!"

The lazy giant ape raised its other hand and slammed it down on Qian Renxue. The immense wind pressure even flattened an entire forest!

Qian Renxue's expression changed drastically. Her second and third soul rings lit up, her lips turned pale, and she had already consumed most of her soul power!

"bump!"

Qian Renxue's second soul ring, the Void Wings, can be immune to physical damage, and even energy damage, up to 50%. But this time, the Lazy Giant Ape's palm strike was imbued with vast soul power. Even if it was immune to 50%, the remaining 50% was enough to severely injure Qian Renxue!

Qian Renxue crashed into the ground like a cannonball, kicking up clouds of dust!

The ground was smashed into a large crater. If it weren't for the effect of the third soul skill, Qian Renxue would probably have had difficulty even standing up. Even so, blood was spilling from the corner of Qian Renxue's mouth, her face was bloodless, and her snow-white wings were stained with spots of scarlet!

Qian Renxue struggled to her feet, her teeth clenched, her eyes filled with stubbornness!

Han Feng is the first person she truly cares about, and he will likely be the last. She will never allow anything to happen to Han Feng!

When the lazy giant ape saw that Qian Renxue was still alive, a hint of surprise flashed in its huge beast eyes, but its lazy nature did not allow it to think about it. Its simple and crude thinking told it that if one blow was not enough, then two blows would be enough, and if two blows were not enough, then three blows would be enough!

Thinking of this, the lazy giant ape did not hesitate, clenched its giant hand, and planned to kill Qian Renxue with a single punch!

The lazy giant ape has no mercy for women!

But Qian Renxue, who seemed to be at her limit, did not show any panic. Instead, as if she had made a decision, she placed her fingers on the pendant on her forehead with some complexity. A golden light flashed, and the lazy giant ape suddenly felt a sense of unease!

Qian Renxue still has a trump card up her sleeve!

If she hadn't met Han Feng, she would never have used this trump card. Even if it meant death, she would have been willing to accept it. But now she didn't want to die, not even if it meant giving in to Bibi Dong!

"Sister Qianqian!"

Just as Qian Renxue was about to reveal the trump card that Bibi Dong had given her to save her life, Han Feng's voice suddenly rang out behind her. Unwilling to reveal her identity in front of Han Feng, Qian Renxue suddenly froze. This momentary hesitation caused Qian Renxue to lose the best opportunity to counterattack!

Meanwhile, Han Feng had already successfully absorbed his second soul ring. Before he could even sense the level of his soul power, he saw Qian Renxue standing in a large pit, her aura weak. The scarlet spots on her flawless white wings were so eye-catching. A giant shadow, as large as a mountain, enveloped Qian Renxue, and a fist the size of a building descended from the sky, smashing towards her!

Han Feng's eyes widened in fury!

Qian Renxue regarded Han Feng as her ideal woman, and Han Feng regarded Qian Renxue as his first good friend.

Qian Renxue's slender figure was about to be crushed by that huge fist. Han Feng didn't know where he got the courage from, but he roared and the Blazing Shield instantly appeared on his body. Two yellow soul rings lit up at the same time, and Han Feng's whole body was covered in crimson flames, even his hair was dyed fiery red!

"Second Soul Skill! Fixed-Point Guardian! First Soul Skill! Life Protection!"

"brush!"

The next moment, Han Feng appeared in front of Qian Renxue. Under Qian Renxue's horrified gaze, a small figure blocked her and the lazy giant ape. A fiery red shield blocked her in front of him. Her body, which was originally cold due to the lack of soul power, became warm in the blink of an eye, whether because of the flames or other reasons!

"Xiao Feng! Get out of the way!"

"boom!!!"

Qian Renxue screamed and reached out to grab Han Feng, trying to push him away, but it was too late. The Lazy Giant Ape's fist had already landed on the Blazing Shield!

Han Feng was very lucky. Although the Lazy Giant Ape was strong, it did not have the concept of "going all out" in its mind. Its strength did not exceed the Soul Emperor level. The 25% chance of triggering the Life Defense blocked the attack for Han Feng!

Qian Renxue never expected that Han Feng would actually block the attack!

The Shield of Blazing Sky stood in front of the two, its seemingly thin, fiery red surface managing to block the Lazy Giant Ape's punch!

However, Han Feng was not in a good position at this time. Although Ming Zhiyu blocked the punch, the Lazy Giant Ape was too big. Its fist was even bigger than Han Feng and Qian Renxue combined, and the force it generated was something Han Feng could not withstand.

Han Feng clenched his teeth and desperately resisted the force, but he was only an eight-year-old child. Even if he was a great soul master, how could he resist it?

Qian Renxue quickly realized Han Feng's predicament, placed her hands behind Han Feng's back, and poured her meager soul power into Han Feng's body.

But even so, it's still not enough!

"Aaaaaah... Roar!!!"

Han Feng roared in resentment, and in the chaos, he summoned his external soul bone. A cold and eerie bone bull's head mask appeared on Han Feng's head, and Han Feng's strength and soul power surged once again!

A violent and ferocious energy surged from the bull-head mask, and Han Feng's pupils turned blood red. He not only blocked the force but also condensed dark red energy between the bull's horns. The moment the force dissipated, a laser shot out!

Wang Xu's brilliance!

Wang Xu's flash pierced through the Blazing Shield and headed straight for the Lazy Giant Ape's eyes!

The lazy giant ape naturally wouldn't let the laser hit its eyes. With a slight turn of its body, Wang Xu's flash grazed its cheek, leaving a small wound on the lazy giant ape's face!

Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes widened in shock upon seeing this scene!

Han Feng not only blocked a punch from the eternally lazy giant ape, but he even injured the giant ape!?

Han Feng's all-out attack, relying on the unique nature of his soul skill, had only caused the Lazy Giant Ape pain, yet he actually made it bleed!

Han Feng is just a Great Soul Master who has just obtained the second ring!
