Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

The night passed peacefully, and nothing happened.

The next morning, Ling Bai and Wu Feng stepped out of their tent, while Huo Yuhao and the other two, who were keeping watch for the rest of the night, were cultivating their Purple Demon Eyes as the first light of dawn appeared in the east.

The neighboring camp was bustling with activity. Tianhun and his group also came out of their tents. Mo Feiyun, with a warm smile on his face, walked over with a few strips of dried meat and said with a grin, "Thank you all for your help last night. These are some special soul beast dried meat that can help soul masters quickly replenish their strength."

"Thanks."

Ling Bai took the jerky, which emitted a rich soul power fluctuation and herbal aroma. The soul beast that was made into jerky had a cultivation level of at least five thousand years.

After expressing his gratitude, Mo Feiyun did not leave. While chewing on some dried meat, he chatted with Ling Bai, saying, "You two are quite young, but your soul power is not weak. You must be geniuses trained by some advanced academy or major sect. The Star Dou Great Forest is so dangerous, why don't we travel together and look after each other?"

"No need. We come from the Snow Demon Sect, and we entered the Star Dou Great Forest to train ourselves," Ling Bai said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Mu Xue, who had been eavesdropping, widened her eyes as if they were copper bells. "You're from the Snow Demon Sect? Then who am I?!"

Vina's expression twitched as she almost burst out laughing, while Mo Feiyun's face turned ashen, as if he had been suffering from constipation for thirty years.

"So it was a hero from the Snow Demon Sect... No wonder they dared to venture into the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts."

Mo Feiyun's tone became noticeably more cautious. The Snow Demon Sect was renowned in the Douluo Continent, consistently ranking among the top five sects in the Heavenly Soul Empire. It maintained good relations with the Heavenly Soul Royal Family and the Body Sect. Mu Xue was not only Vina's best friend but also the young master of the Snow Demon Sect. He suspected that Ling Bai had seen through Mu Xue's identity and directly pointed it out, clearly indicating that he did not want to team up with them.

"In that case, let's part ways here."

The feeling of having his secret exposed was too frightening. Mo Feiyun dared not continue to have any thoughts. He hurriedly called the others to pack up the tents and ran off into the distance.

On the way, Mu Xue was still troubled by how her identity had been exposed. Vina quietly tugged at her hand and comforted her, "Don't think about it, Mu Xue. Anyway, you've already separated. That guy is young, but he's very cold. What a waste of his handsome face."

"Um."

Unable to come up with a solution no matter how hard she tried, Mu Xue simply gave up thinking and focused on finding a suitable soul beast for the two of them.

Outside the Shrek Academy tent, Huo Yuhao and the other two hadn't finished their meal. Ling Bai got up to pack up the tent, followed closely by Wu Feng, who lowered his voice and said:

"They don't seem to have any bad intentions, why did you reject them?"

"Human hearts are far more terrifying than beasts. Allowing them to stay overnight is already magnanimous. If we were to actually travel with them, who knows what might happen?"

"Oh……"

Wu Feng nodded as if she understood, without any doubt that Ling Bai was actually fooling her.

If it were anyone else, Ling Bai would never allow outsiders to enter the rest area he had chosen. This night was to give himself time to consider. The Body Sect was destined to be an enemy, and Vina's twin martial souls included a Body Spirit type martial soul brain. Should he eliminate this threat in advance?

Considering that it was ultimately decided to temporarily give up, the difficulty of taking action was too great with the level 97 titled Douluo Song Lao lurking in the shadows, and Vina was the most valued descendant of the Heavenly Soul Royal Family. In recent years, the Heavenly Soul Royal Family's attitude towards the Body Sect and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has been rather ambiguous, adopting a "wait and see" attitude, as if whoever wins will become the guardian sect of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

Ling Bai was unwilling to completely sever ties with the Heavenly Soul Royal Family unless absolutely necessary, so he didn't resort to underhanded tactics against Vina.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they set off again, relying on the Spider King's senses and shared mental detection to avoid most dangers and unnecessary battles. They quickly headed deeper into the mixed zone of the Star Dou Great Forest, where fire-attribute true dragon soul beasts were scarce, and only there was a chance of encountering a thousand-year-old being.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

A series of heavy footsteps resounded, and figures appeared in front. These soul beasts were entirely crimson, covered with thick scales, with dragon-shaped heads and robust, muscular bodies.

"Red-Armored Earth Dragon!"

The moment he identified the type of soul beast, Wu Feng became excited. His fiery red eyes seemed to burn with flames. Although the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon was an earth dragon, it possessed the bloodline of the true dragon soul beast, the Crimson Armored Dragon. There might even be a Crimson Armored Earth Dragon whose bloodline had awakened inside!

There were about fifteen or sixteen of these red-armored earth dragons. After surrounding the five people, they let out a series of deep dragon roars, causing the temperature in the forest to rise sharply and sparks to fly on the lush green grass and trees.

The leader of the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon, with 15,000 years of cultivation, could not suppress his hunting desire. Sparks burst from the gaps in his crimson dragon scales, and he opened his blood-red maw, unleashing a huge fireball more than a meter in diameter that slammed into him from the front.

This fireball was like a battle horn, and the remaining red-armored earth dragons roared and charged towards the five people, the fireballs shooting out like meteors.

These crimson-armored earth dragons all possessed at least a thousand years of cultivation. A barrage of fireballs rained down, yet it didn't cause any chaos among the group. Huo Yuhao abandoned his Spirit Eye and instead used his second martial soul, the Ice Jade Scorpion. He unleashed his first soul skill, the Extreme Ice Domain. The ultimate ice domain descended, covering the crimson-armored earth dragons' scales with a thin layer of ice. As the flames died down, their movement speed was significantly reduced.

Wu Feng and Wang Dong launched their attack from the ground and the air, respectively, and together with the three ancient giant cauldrons, they charged into the Crimson Armor Earth Dragon formation.

The leader of the Crimson Armored Earth Dragons locked onto Huo Yuhao. The aura of extreme ice made it quite wary. The wisdom of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast told it that it had to deal with Huo Yuhao as soon as possible, otherwise the entire clan would be suppressed by the extreme ice, and it would only be able to exert 70% of its strength at most.

"roar--"

The physical body of the dragon bloodline is unimaginably powerful. This 15,000-year-old crimson-armored earth dragon, like an armored tank, smashed open a Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, and then...

An angelic holy sword pierced through the thick dragon scale armor, pinning the massive body to the earth.

At that moment, a golden-red figure tore through the earth and pounced on Huo Yuhao. Having lost the overall control of the shared mental detection, Huo Yuhao never expected that this group of crimson-armored earth dragons had a trump card hidden. In his haste, his right arm lit up with a strong emerald green light, and a dazzling emerald green beam of light, wrapped with the aura of extreme ice, bombarded the golden-red crimson-armored earth dragon.

The ultimate ice element counters fire, but something shocking happened to Huo Yuhao: the crimson-armored earth dragon's golden-red scales erupted with raging flames. Its cultivation was only two thousand years, but its magnificent aura was far beyond what those of its clansmen could match. It bit through Huo Yuhao's soul bone skill, Ice Jade Fury, and shattered it.

Amidst the shattered ice light, a bloodthirsty, cruel pleasure flashed deep within the eyes of the Crimson-Armored Earth Dragon. A fierce wind arose, and the dragon's roar shook the heavens.

A dark golden light suddenly shone in front of Huo Yuhao, and a large cauldron stood between him and the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon. The cauldron expanded and grew larger, and the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon's claws struck the Three Lives Soul Suppressing Cauldron, producing a piercing metallic clang, yet it could not shake the Three Lives Soul Suppressing Cauldron's majesty.

Third Soul Skill: Might of the Cauldron!

With the wrath of Ice Jade in front and the might of the cauldron with the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear as its soul ring blocking its way, the Crimson Armor Earth Dragon's remaining attack power was completely exhausted. It crashed heavily to the ground, gazing unwillingly at the impregnable Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.

"Thanks, Xiao Xiao."

Huo Yuhao was still shaken; who could have imagined that the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon would launch a sneak attack from underground?

Ling Bai gazed at the golden-red armored earth dragon and murmured, "A golden phoenix can really fly out of a grass nest..."

He had previously detected that there was a sixth brother underground, but this guy's cultivation was only two thousand years old, and Huo Yuhao had experienced the Soul Master Competition. Ling Bai thought that there should be nothing wrong with him, and if things went wrong, there would be Old Song to back him up.

Having broken through the Ice Jade Fury when their soul power was roughly equal, the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon must have awakened the bloodline hidden within its body. It was no longer the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon, but a nearly extinct true dragon soul beast, the Crimson Armored Dragon!

Seeing its clansmen being killed, the Crimson-Armored Dragon was enraged to the extreme. Its vengeful nature made it show no intention of retreating. It slowly opened its dragon mouth to inhale air, as if to roar out the majesty of a true dragon soul beast.

"Roar... Awooo!!!"

The dragon's might lasted for half a second, followed by a deafening scream from the red-armored dragon, and the cracking sound of breaking bones reached everyone's ears.

Ling Bai stepped on the ferocious head of the Crimson Armored Dragon, his iron-hard dragon bones were completely crushed, and he was now limp and unconscious.

The first soul ring shone brightly, and seven-pointed star arrays lit up from beneath the feet of the Crimson Armored Earth Dragon. Divine power surged forth, and the entire Crimson Armored Earth Dragon clan lay down in neat rows.

"Heh...hehe..."

Wu Feng watched as the Crimson Armor Dragon just kept laughing foolishly for a long time before ending its life and absorbing the third soul ring that was most suitable for her.

Two hours later, Wu Feng successfully fused with the Crimson Armor Dragon Soul Ring. As usual, the group looted the corpses of the soul beasts, but the result was disappointing; the group of Crimson Armor Earth Dragons did not drop a single soul bone.

Ling Bai gathered everyone together and said, "This is the depths of the mixed zone, where ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts frequently appear. With your strength, it's probably not suitable to go any further. Wu Feng and Xiao Xiao have each absorbed their third soul rings. I suggest you stop here and return to Shrek Academy."

"And what about your sixth spirit ring?"

Wu Feng blurted out, his eyes subtly glancing behind him.

Her intention was to use the combat power of Song Lao, a level 97 Title Douluo, to reduce the danger of Ling Bai hunting soul beasts.

"I'll be surviving in the core area for a year and a half. I'll handle my sixth spirit ring myself. Elder Song, please take them back." Ling Bai explained and then called out to Elder Song.

"it is good."

Old Song revealed herself, and she also felt that there was no need to put the other four people in danger. If they were unlucky enough to encounter a ferocious beast that was out wandering around, they would probably all die.

"But I..."

Huo Yuhao frowned. He could feel the mysterious bond of fate binding him, and he was unwilling to leave the Star Dou Great Forest now.

"roar--"

A roar like a tsunami suddenly came from afar. Old Song's expression darkened, and he gestured for the others to be quiet.

The deafening roar was followed by a sharp hiss, not as powerful as the roar but extremely penetrating. Judging from the fluctuations in soul power, the two sounds were about three kilometers away from them.

Electrolux spoke up, "Ultimate Light and Ultimate Fire have appeared simultaneously! Kid, this is your chance, don't miss it!"

"Don't worry, Elder Yi!"

Ling Bai worked as a nanny for two days, all for this moment!

"Elder Song, I've found a soul beast suitable for me. You and Wu Feng, Huo Yuhao, and the others should retreat first. I'll go after them!"

Angel wings burst forth from his back, and Ling Bai transformed into a streak of light, vanishing from everyone's sight in an instant. Everyone was stunned. Chasing after him might mean certain death, but not chasing him could put Ling Bai's life in danger.

"Professor Song, we can't abandon Senior Ling!"

Huo Yuhao surprisingly spoke well of Ling Bai. After hesitating for a moment, Old Song gritted his teeth and chased after them with the four pendants.

A golden figure could be vaguely seen shifting and flashing in the woods; the six-winged angel's speed was increasing dramatically.

An extremely majestic figure leaped down from the sky, causing a violent tremor when it landed. It was a giant, with a massive body over ten meters tall, covered in black and white hair, and two enormous heads on its shoulders, each with a single eye that emitted a terrifying light.

Light and darkness coexist, twin Cyclopes!

Ling Bai saw the twin cyclops fleeing in his direction, their two single eyes spewing out powerful shockwaves of mixed black and white light, which were merely used to clear a path.

The figure chasing the twin Cyclopes was a golden streak of light, like a small sun galloping through the jungle. This soul beast's entire body seemed to be made of translucent crystal, its overall shape resembling a lion, but its four claws were like dragons, each claw treading on a ball of golden flame.

In addition to its normal two eyes, it also has a third vertical pupil, which emits an eerie red color.

The auspicious beast of emperors, the three-eyed golden lion!

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion has a cultivation of about 15,000 years. Its imperial auspicious beast bloodline makes it comparable to a 100,000-year-old soul beast, perfectly meeting the requirements of Electrolux's 100,000-year ultimate light and ultimate fire!

In the Sea of ​​Spirit, the Snow Empress saw the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and couldn't help but smash open the ice house door with her fist, exclaiming in surprise:

"Don't tell me you're after the Emperor's Auspicious Beast!"

"There's no other way; it might be the only source of ultimate light on the Douluo Continent!"

The Snow Empress said sternly, "Have you thought this through? If you touch it, every soul beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, from top to bottom, will consider you their mortal enemy. Emperor Tian, ​​Bi Ji, the Demon King, Xiong Jun, Chi Wang, Zi Ji, Yao Ling... seven of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts belong to the Star Dou Great Forest!"

"I know, that's why I won't kill it; I only want its ultimate luminous bloodline!"

Ling Bai spoke urgently, as Old Song was chasing after him in the distance, and he only had thirty seconds!

With the full force of the Thousand Enchantress's disguise, the pitch-black gate to the dead opens!

A black gate opened before the fleeing twin cyclops, and a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up as a ferocious Death Prison Bone Dragon burst out of the Gate of the Dead!

One claw!

The Death Prison Bone Dragon tore the twin Cyclops apart with a single claw, and amidst the bewildered gaze of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, it charged up its power and spun around, unleashing a divine dragon tail sweep!

"boom--"

A loud bang was heard, and dust billowed up.

The Bone Dragon of Death, concealing its merits and fame, burrowed back into the undead demiplane, while the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, with its four claws pointing skyward, rolled up its eyes.

The three-eyed golden lion is defeated! (End of Chapter)
