Douluo Continent: Half-level Innate Realm, but a Sword Cultivator with a Heart-Only Mind

After receiving a response from the tall man, the short bat-like man flapped his wings and flew off towards Qi Dao.

The moment he made his move, Li Luo's expression changed. Ignoring the tall scorpion-tailed man, she turned around and shot out with even greater speed, taking a sudden step.

boom!

The ground beneath Li Luo's feet sank slightly, and he was propelled out like a spring compressed to its limit, grabbing at the short, bat-like man with one claw.

The tiger's claws tore through the air, producing a sharp crack.

The sight instantly made the short, bat-like man's hair stand on end, and he quickly changed direction.

Although Li Luo missed her first attack, she landed in time to block Qi Dao.

"It seems this kid's identity is quite extraordinary, managing to make a Soul Saint like you so nervous?"

The tall man with the scorpion tail wore a mocking expression as he slowly stepped forward.

Li Luo's face was ashen, her gaze fixed intently on him.

"The titled Douluo powerhouse who is currently fighting the soul beast is the person behind us. If you kill us, you will also face endless pursuit."

"Leave now, and we can forgive and forget!"

"otherwise..."

This was the only threat Li Luo could make.

If we can force them to retreat, that would be ideal. If we cannot force them to retreat, we should at least buy them enough time.

As expected, upon hearing this, the tall, scorpion-tailed man's pupils contracted slightly, and his gaze toward Li Luo became more serious.

The short bat-like man froze, his body suspended in mid-air, his gaze instinctively turning to the tall scorpion-tailed man.

Backed by a Title Douluo?

Their eyes met in mid-air, their expressions solemn.

They initially thought it was just an ordinary Soul Saint leading his juniors to hunt for Soul Rings in the Star Dou Great Forest, but now it seems they've bitten off more than they can chew.

Hesitation and retreat had already flashed in the eyes of the short, bat-like man.

After all, it's already difficult for fallen soul masters to survive until now. If they were to provoke a titled Douluo, they probably wouldn't have anywhere to hide in the world.

Below, the tall man with the scorpion tail narrowed his eyes as he analyzed the situation.

"The Title Douluo powerhouse currently fighting the soul beast is clearly not from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, nor is he that Poison Douluo..."

"So, you are from the Spirit Hall."

"These are the only officially recognized Title Douluos on the mainland," the tall, scorpion-tailed man said with a slight gesture.

Li Luo remained silent for a moment, but before he could speak, the tall man with the scorpion tail let out a cold laugh.

"If you were from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School or the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, my brother and I would have spared your lives. Unfortunately, you are not!"

"Big, big brother!" The short bat-like man in mid-air couldn't help but speak, his expression hesitant.

The two brothers originally lived in a coastal city on the western edge of the Heaven Dou Empire, where the emperor was far away and even the Spirit Hall branch there could not restrain them.

This led the two brothers to mistakenly believe that the Spirit Hall was nothing special, so they left the place they had been running for many years and headed to Heaven Dou City.

As soon as they arrived in the capital of the Kingdom of Silves, they were chased by the black-robed bishop of the local Spirit Hall, who led a Soul Saint and two Soul Emperors, and fled into the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Spirit Hall has a strict system with branches throughout all cities on the continent. It is the most basic organization responsible for fundamental matters such as Spirit Awakening and Spirit Master Registration.

Following closely behind are the three levels of Martial Soul Sub-Hall, Martial Soul Main Hall, and Martial Soul Holy Hall, which are respectively established only in medium-sized cities on the continent, strategic cities of the empire, and the capitals of the two great empires.

Among them, the capitals of the three kingdoms naturally also have main halls of martial spirits, with black-robed bishops of the Soul Saint level presiding over them.

Previously, the two brothers had only established a mere branch hall of the Martial Soul Sect in the western edge of the empire, where the strongest members were only Soul Masters.

This is also why they underestimated the Spirit Hall.

Unexpectedly, he suffered a great loss and nearly lost his life as soon as he arrived in the capital of the Kingdom of Silves.

This made them resent the Spirit Hall, but also made them deeply aware of how terrifying the Spirit Hall was.

Most importantly, it reflects the Spirit Hall's attitude!

What does it mean to be a Fallen Soul Master for a day and a Fallen Soul Master for a lifetime?

Damn it, they just killed a few people on the way.

This is making a mountain out of a molehill!!

Seeing the hesitation and reluctance on his underling's face, the tall man with the scorpion tail shouted loudly.

"Fool, do you think they'll be grateful if we let them go?"

"They won't. Once they're safe and leave the Star Dou Great Forest, the first thing they'll do is call on the Title Douluo behind them to hunt us down."

"We'll all die then."

The short, bat-like man's expression suddenly changed, and his gaze towards Li Luo instantly turned fierce.

"Kill them! Kill them all! We'll return to the coast immediately. At worst, we can hide at sea for a while. Even a Title Douluo can't do anything to us!"

The tall, scorpion-tailed man's fierce shout reaffirmed the ferocity of the short, bat-like man.

Li Luo secretly thought to himself that things were not good, he had not expected that the two of them would be so determined to kill.

"Do it!!"

With a loud shout, the tall scorpion-tailed man and the short bat-like man attacked simultaneously.

The tall, scorpion-tailed man's fourth spirit ring lit up, and his aura suddenly surged. His fifth spirit ring also lit up at the same time.

The next second, he shot out from his spot and charged towards Li Luo.

A sinister smile appeared on the short, bat-like man's lips. He flew high into the sky, then swooped down like a hawk hunting its prey, his target still Qi Dao.

What he wanted was to make Li Luo too busy to deal with everything, and eventually expose his weakness.

Li Luo's pupils contracted, and she stood still, gritting her teeth, preparing to take the hit.

But at the critical moment, behind him...

Qi Dao's aura suddenly surged.

"Senior Li Luo, go ahead and fight! Don't worry about me!"

Qi Dao's voice rang out behind Li Luo, which was like heavenly music to Li Luo.

"Young friend Qi Dao, have you finished absorbing your spirit ring?"

"That's wonderful!"

"I'll hold them off for you, you get out of here!"

After saying that, Li Luo let out a long roar and unleashed his ultimate skill on the spot.

Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul True Form!!

The next moment, Li Luo's body swelled to over three meters tall, his muscles displaying an explosive sense of power.

His head features some characteristics of a tiger's head, with the "king" character pattern gleaming like flames. The muscles of his shoulder blades and back bulge, bursting through his shirt to reveal skin covered in crimson.

Soul Masters at the Soul Saint level or above rarely unleash their Martial Soul True Body, but once they do, it means they're going all out.

His action instantly shocked the two people opposite him.

The tall man with the scorpion tail looked at Qi Dao in astonishment.

"Who exactly is this person, that a Soul Saint would risk his life for him like this?"

"Could it be the grandson of that Title Douluo behind them?"

The thought was fleeting; now the die is cast, and the arrow must be released.

With this thought in mind, the tall man with the scorpion tail gritted his teeth and also unleashed his seventh soul skill.

In an instant, his body also swelled up. His torso still retained the upper body of a human, but his lower body completely transformed into a scorpion's body, with six thick arthropods supporting his body.

His most striking feature is the scorpion tail that trails behind him, which is over three meters long and consists of eleven segments of bony armor, each with sharp barbs.

After activating his Martial Soul True Form, his movements were as fast as lightning as he attacked Li Luo, his speed so fast that he was like a black shadow darting through the air.

Just as the two were about to collide, Qi Dao's second spirit ring lit up, and a flying sword appeared beneath his feet.

He knew that if he stayed here, he would only become a burden to Li Luo, so without hesitation, he took off on his sword under the gaze of the two people opposite him.

"This kid can actually fly!"

"Boy, don't run away!"

The short, bat-like man shouted and then chased after Qi Dao.

But would Li Luo give him that chance?

Are you pretending I don't exist?

Li Luo's voice boomed like thunder.

Then his sixth spirit ring lit up.

Crimson Tiger Meteor Strike!

"Your opponent is me!"

The tall man with the scorpion tail appeared in front of Li Luo in an instant, and his sixth spirit ring lit up at the same time.

A bloodthirsty light erupted from the scorpion tail behind him, and then it suddenly stabbed out.

boom!!

The phantom of the red tiger clashed with the phantom of the black scorpion, creating billowing dust!

A terrifying shockwave spread out, causing Qi Dao's sword to sway.

Even the short, bat-like man gasped, secretly relieved.

If Li Luo's attack after activating his Martial Soul True Form had landed on him, even if he hadn't died, he would have been severely injured instantly.

Fortunately, I still have my older brother!

At that moment, the voice of the tall man with the scorpion tail came from the billowing dust.

"Quick, go kill that brat!"

"I'll go right now!"

Before he finished speaking, the short, bat-like man immediately chased after Qi Dao.

The clash between two Soul Saints who had awakened their Martial Soul True Forms was something he couldn't participate in at all.

On the other side, Qi Dao was frantically fleeing for his life.

That short, bat-like man was definitely the strongest opponent he had ever encountered.

Even though most of the Fallen Soul Masters in Douyi are in the Slaughter City, he managed to encounter them twice!

What kind of crazy luck is this?!

He secretly thought that he and the Fallen Soul Masters were inherently incompatible.

Feeling the whooshing sound behind him, his heart grew heavier.

Although he had the first move, if things continued like this, he would be caught up by the short, bat-like man in no more than a few dozen seconds.

No matter how strong he is, he can't possibly be this person's match!

But if you want Qi Dao to sit idly by and wait for his death...

No, that's not like him!

Dad, Mom, Brother Xue, and Senior Sister, they are all still waiting for me to come home safely!

He can't die yet!
