Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 59 The Three Ultimate Talents of the Death Prison Spider King (Part 2)

"Huh? Us?"

After a long while, a look of utter shock, as if to say "What kind of ridiculous joke is this?", vanished. The dignified composure he had cultivated over many years crumbled, and he shrieked:

"The Underworld Demon Lord has a cultivation of fifty thousand years. Even ordinary hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts couldn't kill that freak with the bloodline of the God of Death. Moreover, Medusa's petrification soul skill is not to be underestimated. Even Uncle She Chong was helpless after being hit by it! Going there would be suicide!"

"No, no, no, quite the opposite! This is an excellent opportunity for revenge!" Ling Bai shook his finger and coaxed, "Although the Underworld Demon Basket and Medusa are strong, their strength lies in their death attribute and innate soul skills. Their defense is extremely weak compared to top-level soul beasts of the same cultivation level. Guardian She's self-destruction with his Soul Douluo body must have caused them severe damage that is difficult to heal in a short time!"

"You don't need to worry about the Underworld Demon Basket and the swarm of snakes; leave them entirely to me. As for the Snake Queen Medusa... Miss Xu Jiu'er, I think you can at least hold her off for a while, given her greatly weakened state."

"I……"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiujiu suddenly fell into deep thought, waking up from his state of being terrified, and his intelligence once again took over.

If what Ling Bai said is true, she is indeed capable of holding off the heavily injured Medusa!

"You'll agree, after all, you also want to avenge Guard She, don't you?"

Ling Bai added fuel to the fire, mentioning She Chong. A flame of vengeance instantly ignited in Xu Jiujiu's eyes as he firmly stated:

"Okay, I'll go with you!"

In fact, there was no other choice. Without Ling Bai, she could not escape the snakes' encirclement!

"Ning Bai, I entrust my life and fortune to you."

She gave Ling Bai a deep look. Venturing deep into the Soul Beast Forest with an evil soul master to challenge an opponent who seemed to have no chance of winning was the bravest thing Xu Jiujiu had done in seventeen years.

She Chong's self-deception had greatly weakened the two great soul beasts, and he had also successfully tricked Xu Jiujiu into sharing the firepower. Ling Bai's confidence was further enhanced, and he even had the mind to joke, "To correct you, it's that we've entrusted our lives to each other."

"Hmm... I just hope you won't disappoint me."

……

The Eternal Night Region, the Snake's Nest.

Flowers seemed to bloom everywhere, emitting a faint pinkish glow, a rare sight in this land of eternal night.

The sea of ​​flowers swayed in the wind, and the fireflies reflected in Ling Bai and Xu Jiujiu's eyes. The flowers seemed to come alive, and as they swayed, they resembled a bewitching and charming woman twisting her sexy waist. The dancing branches and leaves occasionally touched their faces, like a pair of soft and smooth little hands gently caressing their faces.

Gazing at this beautiful scene that resembled paradise on earth, Xu Jiujiu suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, because she saw wriggling snake tails protruding from the center of the closed flower. Her stomach churned and she almost vomited!

wonderland?

This place is simply... hell!

"Blood sacrifice..."

Ling Bai remained expressionless, quietly watching the sea of ​​flowers before him, which resembled a chaotic dance of demons. Due to his severe injuries, the Underworld Demon King had initiated the once-in-a-millennium blood sacrifice ahead of schedule, but he never expected it to be so brutal as to devour the snake horde under Medusa's command!

"No wonder the Underworld Emperor Demon Luo was hunted down by all the soul beasts of Douluo Continent. Serves him right!" Xu Jiujiu pursed her red lips and let out a soft breath. "Ning Bai, it's not too late to regret it now."

"regret?"

Ling Bai tilted his head slightly. Unlike the brilliance of his golden eyes, the color of Ling Bai's eyes under the Heavenly Silkworm Mask was rather pale. Especially in the dark and sunless Land of Eternal Night, when he stared at people in the darkness, he had an inorganic indifference.

"I have never regretted what I have done."

As soon as he finished speaking, eight hideous purplish-black spider legs burst out from his back, instantly filling the air with a suffocating aura of death. At the same time, a huge scythe appeared in Ling Bai's left hand, its blade like a crescent moon with a desolate arc. After a brief glance, he was forced to close his eyes tightly by the scythe's terrifying sharpness.

Death Prison Demon Scythe!

The Death Prison Demon Scythe is not a transformation resulting from the possession of the Death Prison Spider Emperor Martial Soul, but rather, along with the Angel Holy Sword, it serves as an independent weapon, residing in Ling Bai's left and right arms respectively. At this moment, Ling Bai needs its power!

As the Death Prison Spider King and the Death Prison Demon Scythe appeared, a dim yet mysterious gray soul ring rose up and pulsed around Ling Bai's body.

"Your spirit rings!?"

She covered her mouth for a long time, forcing herself not to exclaim. She wasn't some low-level Soul Master who had never seen the world; Ling Bai had truly surprised her too much!

You're so powerful, yet you only have one spirit ring, and it's a gray spirit ring that's unprecedented in the Douluo Continent!

"Calm down. It's reasonable for evil spirit masters to have some sinister traits. I believe you can understand."

After a long pause, he looked away and whispered, "A monster, a demonic soul master among demonic soul masters..."

Ling Bai ignored Xu Jiujiu's complaints. With the Death Prison Demon Scythe as the main attack and the eight spider spears as support, it was like starting a large harvester. Patches of flowers exploded and turned into black dust that drifted everywhere. Xu Jiujiu, who was following behind Ling Bai, could only see a blurry figure moving straight ahead.

In the center of the sea of ​​flowers, the Underworld Demon Lord's expression shifted slightly as he sensed a living being disrupting his blood sacrifice!

"Giggle giggle..."

With a face remarkably similar to a human's, a wide smile spread across its face. The eyes on the chest of the Underworld Demon King blazed with excitement, and an overwhelming surge of intense emotion washed over its heart!

The same origin of the death attribute, and even more so the death attribute above it!

Devouring ten thousand small snakes is not as good as devouring that uninvited guest!

A vine rapidly extended from beneath the Netherworld Demon Basket, waking Medusa, who was sleeping and recovering from her injuries. Medusa shook her bald head, tilted her head back, and let out a piercing shriek, summoning the few hundred snake-like soul beasts that had been killed by She Chong and the Netherworld Demon Basket to prepare for battle!

The Underworld Demon Lord opened its arms as if embracing the entire dark sky. Its red lips hummed with strange incantations, and the sea of ​​flowers began to sprout wildly. One after another, pink and black flowers bloomed in competition. One after another, figures walked out of the sea of ​​flowers, gradually turning from illusion to solidity!

The Netherworld Emperor's Demonic Roar's Innate Domain: The Land of the Dead!

Unleash the bloodline of the Grim Reaper, summoning all the souls of those sacrificed over the past fifty thousand years to fight for him!

The blood sacrifice occurs once every thousand years, slaughtering tens of thousands of soul beasts in a single event. The Netherworld Emperor Demon's wealth accumulated over fifty thousand years is immense. In an instant, the souls of the soul beasts layer upon layer filled the entire sea of ​​flowers, relentlessly engulfing the outside world like a tidal wave!

"boom--"

The expansion of the Land of the Dead suddenly halted due to the eruption of another innate domain! The Land of the Dead charged headlong into the enemy without hesitation, but the enemy was as impenetrable as an iron wall, causing the Land of the Dead to crash into the enemy and suffer heavy losses. The sea of ​​flowers withered abruptly, and the screams of the soul beasts and the dead filled the sky. They felt their souls being gripped by death, and bloodthirsty demons breathed cold air from the back of their necks!

The Death Prison Spider Emperor's Innate Domain: The Realm of Death!

The realm of death is filled with the aura of ultimate death. The caster's attributes are increased by 50%, while the attributes of enemies are weakened by 30%. The weakening effect on undead creatures and souls is doubled! The caster's soul power is no longer consumed except for maintaining the realm of death, and the three ultimate talent effects of the Death Prison Spider King evolve!

The realm of the dead crushed and ravaged the land of the dead, reaching the entire space of this forest. The domineering power of the Death Prison Spider King, representing the ultimate death, enveloped the earth, with the Underworld Demon King bearing the brunt!

For the first time, the Netherworld Demon King's expression showed astonishment and rage. It clashed fiercely with Ling Bai's eyes, which were now completely crimson due to the possession of the Death Prison Spider King. It was the true bloodline of the God of Death, the incomparably noble Lord of Death!

Those who overstep their bounds shall be punished with the most severe penalty!

Underworld Emperor Demon's innate soul skill: Execution!

The immense power of Death's blood surged into the Underworld Emperor's Demon Basket, and the vines dancing beneath it sprouted thorns and blades, instantly transforming from beautiful flowers into deadly killing weapons, a combination of violence and beauty!

The souls made way for the Netherworld Demon Basket, and those who couldn't dodge in time were cut and shredded by its sharp edge in the next second. The eyes in the center of the Netherworld Demon Basket's chest were bloodshot. Under the immense double threat of death from the Netherworld Demon Basket and the Death Prison Spider King, the soul beasts couldn't help but kneel on the ground!

The executioner's vine pierced Ling Bai's chest. The vines, like spinning electric drills, pushed Ling Bai forward. The death erosion attached to it could kill a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast with vigorous blood and energy in a fraction of a second!

Blood splattered from Ling Bai's body like tattered red silk, but Ling Bai's movements were completely unaffected. The dim light shone on the black scythe, and one could almost see the hazy crimson blood. The land of eternal night shone with dazzling sparks!

The sound of metal clashing echoed in the air as two storms of death bombarded each other time and again, sending mud and withered flowers flying. During the melee, the man and the beast locked eyes countless times, each regarding the other as an irreconcilable enemy!

The Underworld Demon Clan wielded its once invincible execution vines, but its mentality was gradually collapsing. Its defense was weak, and She Chong's close-range self-destruction had severely injured it, greatly reducing its strength. It had only barely recovered 50% of its combat power by sacrificing the snake horde. Now, the injuries inside its body were gradually accumulating, like a taut spring that could explode again at any moment!

Having already pushed the attributes and power of death to their limits, the Underworld Demon Lord stared intently at the blood-soaked human opposite him. If it could speak, the Underworld Demon Lord would definitely want to ask Ling Bai a question.

Aren't you in pain yet?

You...aren't you dead yet?!

Ling Bai's answer was simple and brutal. He swung the Death Prison Demon Scythe and plunged it into the eye of the Underworld Emperor Demon Basket in its chest, which was its most vulnerable spot!

The reason he dared to risk execution and exchange injuries with the Underworld Demon King was entirely due to the Death Prison Spider King's other ultimate talent: immortality!

In normal conditions, pain sensitivity drops dramatically, recovery ability increases dramatically, and physical strength and resilience far surpass those of Soul Masters of the same level!

Within the realm of death, the talent evolves, ignoring pain; one cannot die until one's entire body is destroyed in a single blow!

The Netherworld Demon Basket suffered a severe blow to its weakness and was forced back by the monstrous strength attached to the Demon Scythe. The vines dug into it, leaving a deep bloody trail, and the soil tumbled and flew everywhere, with fallen petals and catkins filling the air!

Upon discovering that her leader was at a disadvantage, Medusa became anxious and ordered her few remaining snakes to launch a siege. Her third eye between her eyebrows quietly opened, and her innate soul skill, Medusa's Gaze, was ready to be unleashed!

Medusa's gaze is extremely powerful and persistently destructive. Once it hits an enemy, the petrifying power will disrupt the flow of soul power within the body until the soul power is completely lost, turning the enemy into a strangely shaped, stubborn rock.

Just then, a magnificent beam of starlight descended, and Xu Jiujiu revealed his form, with a beautiful crown made of countless gems appearing on his forehead!

The Star Luo Empire's royal family's inherited martial spirit, the Star Crown!

The purple fourth soul ring shone brightly, and a burst of dazzling starlight burst forth, forming a cage that descended from the sky and trapped Medusa!

Star Crown's fourth soul skill: Star Guardian!

Medusa was taken aback, and after turning her head, she was filled with rage. Medusa stared and instantly changed her target!

"boom--"

The grayish-white petrifying light suddenly bombarded the barrier of the Star Guardian, creating a faint ripple!

Star Guardian has an additional effect: Attribute Isolation!

Medusa's gaze turned into a pure soul power attack. Given Medusa's current injuries, she was no match for Xu Jiujiu's Star Guardian!

Ling Bai insisted on dragging Xu Jiujiu onto the pirate ship because he valued the attribute isolation of the Star Crown Martial Soul. Although he could fight the heavily injured Underworld Emperor Demon with the full release of the Death Prison Spider Emperor's talent, there was Medusa watching him from the side, ready to unleash her petrification beam at any moment. Ling Bai was not very confident in taking on two opponents and a large group of snake-type soul beasts at once!

She Chong's self-sacrifice and self-destruction set the stage, and the long-term restraint of the Star Guardian created the possibility for Ling Bai to kill the Underworld Emperor Demon Luo, who was of a higher level!

Ling Bai was satisfied with Xu Jiujiu's timely intervention, while Xu Jiujiu's heart was filled with even more turmoil!

She had never seen an ultimate martial soul, but she could sense some of its power from the formidable might of the Death Prison Spider King, as well as the innate domain of the Death Realm that suppressed the Netherworld Demon Basket. She sighed for a long time, marveling at how Heaven truly had mercy on this evil soul master!

The only saving grace is that he was far from evil enough, otherwise the continent would have been plunged into chaos and devastation...

After a long while, Medusa was finally stopped, but the swarm of snakes was unstoppable. They charged at Ling Bai like madmen, and a thick, pungent stench swept across the land!

His long hair was whipped wildly, and Ling Bai spun the Death Prison Demon Scythe in his left hand as he watched the surging swarm of snakes. His scarlet eyes were filled with nothing but bloodlust!

The jet-black scythe drew graceful arcs, like the Grim Reaper taking lives. The heads of small snakes, some ten or a hundred years old, were severed at the root. Larger, thousand-year-old pythons crashed to the ground, their severed heads still attached to a thin layer of blood-red snake skin. The pythons' nerves were still convulsing, awaiting death. White, yellow, and purple soul rings were scattered everywhere. The lives of soul beasts were as worthless as grass.

After kicking away the several-ton corpse of the ancient tree python that was blocking his way, Ling Bai felt a sweet taste in his throat and spat out a mouthful of bright red blood.

My physical body and soul power are nearing their limits.

We must finish this quickly!

With this thought in mind, Ling Bai made up his mind. The terrifying phantom of the Death Prison Spider King suddenly appeared, and its eight scarlet beast eyes revealed a satiated smile before feeding. Hundreds of soul rings from the snake swarm rushed into the Death Prison Spider King's body, and Ling Bai's soul power rose steadily!

The Soul Devouring talent of the Death Prison Spider King's three ultimate talents!

Originating from the Soul-Devouring Spider King, he devours souls and soul rings in exchange for power, making him a truly deserving evil soul master!

Ultimate Death, Soul Devouring, Undying Body, Spider Emperor Sensation, Death Prison Demon Scythe, Innate Domain of Death Realm, and Rakshasa Evil Power together constitute the Second Evil Martial Soul, Death Prison Spider Emperor!
