Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 144 Stripping Away Ultimate Light, Stopping Fate

The angelic realm was released, and a dazzling golden light swept out, a massive amount of holy power washed over the ground, erasing all traces of the Twin Cyclopes' corpses and the Death Prison Bone Dragon.

The domain slowly contracted, transforming into a golden ball of light about two meters in diameter, enveloping Ling Bai and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. Unless they forcibly broke through the Angel's Domain, both their spiritual power and soul power would be firmly blocked by it.

Inside the ball of light, the three-eyed golden lion was in a coma, its three eyes drawing circles and its tongue dangling out.

With time running out and the task heavy, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion being a dual-attribute soul beast protected by the power of destiny, the Death Prison Bone Dragon had to rely on the surprise of a sneak attack to subdue it, so it naturally had to use more force.

Taking advantage of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's unconscious state, Ling Bai sealed its soul power in advance, pressed his right hand on its large head, and the black vortex continuously devoured the ultimate light bloodline within the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's body.

Necromancy, attribute stripping!

The two figures, one human and one beast, appeared almost transparent, with golden light shimmering faintly. A six-winged angel quietly possessed them, and a faint smile seemed to appear on the angel's hazy face.

Soul beasts have powerful physical bodies, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion soon awoke from its coma. It then discovered that the light bloodline within its body was rapidly draining away, and the culprit was none other than the mortal enemy of the soul beast race: humans!

"Damn human, what...what did you do to me?!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was terrified. In its memory, it was chasing the Twin Cyclops when suddenly, a pale white, thick, long dragon tail whipped at it. Caught completely off guard, it fainted spectacularly. When it woke up and looked closely, it saw that the disgusting human was pressing down on its noble head, and a divine power was sealing its soul power.

"My body, no, let me go!" The three-eyed golden lion began to resist, its four claws thrashing about.

"Sweetie, it'll be quick, I've sped up, it'll be done soon!"

The voice echoed out of the Angel Realm. Old Song and the four little ones exchanged bewildered glances. Wang Dong swallowed hard and cautiously said:

"If it can speak human language, it must be a 100,000-year-old soul beast..."

Xiao Xiao clasped her hands together and said devoutly, "Respect, blessings."

Wu Feng roared furiously, "You bastard, are you really that hungry? You're even going after soul beasts!"

Old Song smiled helplessly: "It seems that Ling Bai is not in any danger, so I am relieved."

The Angel Realm implies that Ling Bai wants to keep it a secret, and Elder Song will not rashly intrude.

Huo Yuhao pursed his lips tightly, the bond of fate growing stronger, and his destined possession now fell into Ling Bai's hands. His voice was tragic and bitter, clearly indicating that he had suffered inhuman humiliation.

"roar--"

Three angry roars pierced the sky, and a dark red figure pounced towards the crowd. Old Song's expression suddenly turned serious, and the light and shadow of the Azure Shadow Divine Eagle flashed suddenly. Its sharp eagle eyes instantly captured the trajectory of the dark red figure.

"boom!!!"

Old Song soared into the air, and the sharp claws of the Azure Shadow Divine Eagle embedded themselves in the shoulder of the dark red figure. Wu Feng, Huo Yuhao, and the others finally saw the appearance of this soul beast.

It is over five meters long, extremely robust, and has three identical heads with terrifying canines that gleam with a reddish-gold luster.

"Ranked eighth among the ten most ferocious beasts, the Three-Headed Crimson Demon Hound, the Crimson King!?"

Old Song was stunned for a moment. The Crimson King's territory was the deepest part of the core area, close to the Lake of Life. How could it appear in the mixed area where ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts gathered?

The Crimson King's three large heads roared simultaneously, and all the soul beasts within a ten-mile radius prostrated themselves on the ground, too afraid to move. It growled:

"I saw you during the last beast tide, Shrek Academy's Azure Shadow Douluo! What are you planning to do to the Emperor Beast?!"

"An imperial auspicious beast?"

Old Song shook off the Crimson King and landed back in front of the five people, staring at the enraged Crimson King with a bewildered look.

Crimson King pointed at the golden light cluster in the Angelic Domain and roared, "I can sense that the Imperial Beast is right here! Azure Shadow Douluo, I advise you to release the beast immediately, or the Star Dou Clan will fight Shrek Academy to the death!"

"Uncle Red King... Waaah! Help... help me!"

Just then, the cries for help from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion echoed within the Angelic Realm, then vanished as if its mouth had been gagged.

The Crimson King's face grew increasingly black, like the bottom of a pot, and his three heads spewed out wisps of dark red hellfire.

Old Song suddenly felt a headache coming on. He tapped the ball of light in the angelic realm and said:

"Um... Ling Bai, did you hear that? The Imperial Beast must not be killed!"

The Sea God Pavilion contains descriptions of the Emperor Beast. In the habitat of the Emperor Beast, the growth rate of soul beasts doubles, and the chance of a 100,000-year-old soul beast breaking through its bottleneck also doubles. The threat of the Crimson King is no joke. Once the Three-Eyed Golden Lion dies, the Star Dou Great Forest will definitely be swept by an endless beast tide.

The angelic realm quietly dissipated, revealing Ling Bai and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion had a large bump on its forehead and was weak and listless, but it still bared its teeth and glared at Ling Bai with hatred. Ling Bai felt relieved, as if he had kicked away a huge boulder that had been pressing on his heart.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's ultimate light was temporarily preserved by Elex, who retained the ultimate fire bloodline. Taking away two ultimate attributes at once was like cutting off two human kidneys; the Emperor Beast's body would suffer unpredictable and severe damage.

Removing a bloodline is like cutting off a crop of chives; the remaining bulbs can allow the leaves to regrow, but they require a lot of resources for irrigation.

If the Three-Eyed Golden Lion wants to complete its Light Bloodline, it would probably take ten thousand years to do so through cultivation alone.

Looking at the three-eyed golden lion, Elder Song said thoughtfully, "Ultimate light and ultimate fire perfectly match the soul ring requirements of a six-winged angel. No wonder Ling Bai found this auspicious beast."

"Humans, release the auspicious beast!"

Seeing that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was not seriously injured, the Crimson King breathed a slight sigh of relief. Now that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was in Ling Bai's hands, it dared not launch an attack for fear of harming the lion, and could only threaten it with words.

Having dealt with the Ultimate Light, Ling Bai could go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye to chat with Liehuo Xingjiaoshu about life. Completely resolving the Death Prison Spider King was just around the corner. Ling Bai felt that it was already dawn. He rubbed the head of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. The Imperial Beast was indeed worthy of being called an Imperial Beast. Its fur was smooth and soft, like the finest silk and satin, making it irresistible.

"That won't do." Ling Bai shook his head and chuckled. "Your auspicious beast is so fierce; it almost killed me just now. I'm going to take it home and give it a good talking to."

Upon hearing this, the three-eyed golden lion's three eyes widened instantly.

He's slandering me!

Uncle Red King, he's slandering me!

I clearly didn't see this damn human before I was knocked unconscious!

"Impossible!" the Crimson King retorted. "The auspicious beasts only eat the brains of light-type soul beasts; they won't attack humans."

"My martial soul is a six-winged angel, this guy must be mistaking me for a light-type soul beast."

"Um……"

The Crimson King frowned. It had heard of the Six-Winged Angel's reputation. A god-level martial soul, with ultimate holiness combined with near-perfect light and fire, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion might indeed be eyeing the Six-Winged Angel's brains. It slowly said:

"If you release the Imperial Beast, I am willing to apologize to you on its behalf."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was controlled by others, and since Elder Song's strength far surpassed its own, the Crimson King had no choice but to bow down to humanity.

"Ughhhhh!!!"

The three-eyed golden lion gestured wildly with its four paws. Earlier, when it asked the Crimson King for help, Ling Bai sealed its language ability. This imperial auspicious beast was almost brought to tears of grievance. With a face full of grief and indignation, it tried to explain that what the human said was all nonsense. I never intended to eat his brains!

Snow in June!

"Only those who wronged you know how wronged you are," Ling Bai coughed lightly, pressed down on the three-eyed golden lion's two front paws, and said calmly, "Apologizing with words alone is not enough. Find a 100,000-year-old soul beast as an apology gift, and I will release it."

Old Song and the four little ones gasped. They vaguely knew that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was innocent, and they admired Ling Bai for being able to make such a huge demand without batting an eye, directly extorting a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

The Crimson King was furious, cursing, "A 100,000-year-old soul beast, why don't you just give me back to you? I'm going to kill you, you greedy human!"

"Calm down, calm down, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Ling Bai pressed his hands down, signaling the Crimson King to calm down: "Your Star Dou Great Forest is vast and boundless, encompassing all things, with countless kinds of soul beasts. There must be quite a few evil soul beasts among them."

"right."

Taking a deep breath, the Crimson King barely managed to calm his anger and nodded.

In the world of Soul Masters, there are Evil Soul Masters; in the world of Soul Beasts, there are Evil Soul Beasts. The most famous Evil Soul Beast is, of course, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Its status is comparable to the God-level Martial Soul Six-Winged Angel among humans. Every time it appears, it is a disaster for the Star Dou Great Forest. Another example is the Human-Faced Demon Spider, which is also an Evil Soul Beast and belongs to the type that every beast wants to kill.

The Star Dou Great Forest is the largest gathering place of soul beasts in the Douluo Continent. Ling Bai believed that there must be evil soul beasts of the 100,000-year level living here. He persuaded, "After killing evil soul masters and evil soul beasts, the six-winged angels can purify some of their soul power and use it for themselves. Evil soul beasts are bombs, and 100,000-year evil soul beasts are super bombs."

"Red King, I won't make it difficult for you to kill an ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beast. You capture a 100,000-year-old evil soul beast and hand it over to me in exchange for the auspicious beast. It's a win-win situation for both the Star Dou Great Forest and me. Even if Di Tian finds out, he won't blame you; he might even praise you for your cleverness."

"Okay, I agree."

The Crimson King couldn't help but chuckle, his sharp canine fangs twitching as he said, "You look promising, kid!"

Ling Bai smiled and said, "The Star Dou Great Forest and Shrek City are adjacent to each other. Neither of us wants to start a war. Crimson King, we will wait for you at the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest."

Without further delay, the Crimson King headed towards the territory of a certain 100,000-year-old evil spirit beast from his memory.

A dense azure light enveloped the five people and one beast. With the immense power of the level 97 Super Douluo, Elder Song, he swiftly took to the air with the people and beast. When they landed again, they were on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Everyone waited for the Crimson King's return. Wu Feng moved next to Ling Bai and whispered, "Why don't you be bolder and ask that guy for a 100,000-year-old Light Attribute Soul Beast?"

"A 100,000-year-old soul beast has already crossed the Crimson King's bottom line," Ling Bai said. "If we designate another light-attribute soul beast, I'm worried it will summon the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, ​​which might be a case of more harm than good."

"It's better for everyone to be happy: the Crimson King willingly eliminates a troublesome entity for the Star Dou Great Forest ahead of schedule, while I kill the Evil Soul Beast to increase my soul power and incidentally obtain a 100,000-year-old soul bone."

Wu Feng nodded subconsciously upon hearing this, and Old Song's eyes also gleamed with admiration. What Ling Bai said was indeed very reasonable.

In fact, Ling Bai was telling the truth, but he concealed a fact: his second martial soul, the Death Prison Spider Emperor, could absorb the soul rings of evil soul beasts!

Soul power, soul rings, and soul bones – three benefits in one go!

Blood earned!

On the other side, Huo Yuhao quietly approached the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, scrutinizing this auspicious imperial beast that made his heart tremble.

"Get out of here, you filthy, disgusting human!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was finally able to speak, and it launched into a tirade against Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao paid no heed, his spiritual eyes gleaming with golden light. Following his inner guidance, he suddenly pressed his hand against the vertical pupil in the center of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's forehead.

"Bang!"

"oops!"

A sharp crack on the head and a cry of pain rang out one after the other. Huo Yuhao sat on the ground, clutching his head, glaring at Ling Bai, who stood before him like a mountain, and demanded:

Why did you hit me?

"I'd like to ask you, what are you going to do with it?"

From the moment Huo Yuhao approached the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Ling Bai was prepared and decisively stopped the fate-linked attribute connection.

"I have a feeling that I want to touch its third eye!" Huo Yuhao stood up, seemingly determined to get closer to the three-eyed golden lion.

"Shameless! Disgusting! You dare touch me?!"

The three-eyed golden lion was furious, roaring repeatedly as it desperately tried to break through the soul power seal set up by Ling Bai, with golden-red blood even spilling from the corners of its mouth.

"Closer to the third eye?"

Old Song gently stroked his chin, then suddenly realized:

Ancient texts record that where auspicious beasts are located, all beasts are protected. Their status is supreme, and humans can guide them. They are blessed with good fortune and have a bright future.

Auspicious beasts protect soul beasts, greatly increasing their cultivation speed. Attribute guidance uses their attributes to refine human attributes, imbuing humans with auspicious energy that greatly benefits their future cultivation.

Although the Imperial Beast possesses both ultimate light and ultimate fire attributes, its primary attribute is spirit. Yuhao must have resonated with its spirit attribute to have the intuition to guide the attribute.

Ling Bai, I think Yuhao should give it a try.

"You...you dare!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion lost its soul power and became fierce in appearance but weak in reality. If it had any strength left, it would commit suicide without hesitation. The side effect of the attribute connection is that the fates of the two people are now intertwined. It is a noble destiny beast and will never allow humans to tarnish its destiny!

"You might be right, Mr. Song."

Ling Bai's tone was calm as still water, "However, that is only a record in ancient books. No one has ever truly achieved attribute transfer, and no one knows what the price is. If attribute transfer causes the Emperor Beast to die unexpectedly, and the Star Dou Great Forest launches a beast tide to attack Douluo Continent, causing widespread devastation and endless war, who can bear this responsibility?"

"If Shrek can handle it, then let's do it."

Ling Bai took the initiative to step back and make way for Huo Yuhao, while secretly kicking the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

"You... um... oh yes, yes, yes!"

Just as the three-eyed golden lion was about to utter a curse, it suddenly realized what it was doing and coughed up a mouthful of blood. It was so weak and feeble that it seemed as if it would die at any moment.

"Attribute...attribute-based attraction is a method of forcing soul beasts to sacrifice themselves. Let that kid come over. Anyway, Uncle Di Tian will help me get revenge!" The three-eyed golden lion lay down, looking as if it was up to you to kill or torture it.

Not bad, you could call it clever.

Ling Bai silently gave him a thumbs up in his heart.

"this……"

Old Song and Huo Yuhao immediately chickened out. There was no precedent for attribute transfer. If the Three-Eyed Golden Lion really died, everyone would have to die with it. It was better to wait for the Crimson King to return and exchange the hostages.

Realizing that Huo Yuhao had abandoned the idea of ​​attribute transfer, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes brightened. It stopped struggling, and its gaze towards Ling Bai still held anger, hatred, and some other indescribable emotions...
