Douluo Phoenix

Chapter 83 The Demon Soul Great White Shark King

Xiao Fei looked at everyone and said, "You've all seen the second test. Now, each of you go down and try it out."

Upon hearing Xiao Fei's words, Huo Wushuang rushed into the sea without hesitation. Sure enough, less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a dark shadow flashed in the sea, and Huo Wushuang was blasted out of the water. The dark shadow was over 25 meters long; it was none other than the guardian beast of Seagod Island, the 100,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark King.

Next, everyone fought in the sea, but were all knocked away by a fleeting black shadow. Xiao Fei looked at everyone and laughed, "Now everyone should know how difficult the second test is, right?"

Huo Wu asked doubtfully, "Do we really have to defeat a 100,000-year-old soul beast to break through the second level?"

Everyone stared at Huo Wu, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Huo Wu immediately retorted angrily, "What's wrong with what I said? How can we break through the Ring Sea if we don't defeat it?"

Looking at Huo Wu's train of thought, Huo Wushuang shook his head: "Sister, the Sea God's test for us is only to break through the Ring Sea. As for how to break through, that's up to us. Can't we avoid the 100,000-year-old soul beast, or think of other ways?"

Huo Wu was speechless. Seeing Huo Wu's discomfiture, Xiao Fei couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Xiao Fei's expression turned serious: "The Sea God's Trials aren't that simple. The first trial, the Sea God's Light, is clearly designed to temper our soul power and help us break through our limits. After passing the first trial, everyone should have clearly felt a significant improvement in their physical abilities and strength."

"The second test of the Sea God is not that simple. The Sea God wants to train our combat skills in the sea. As the Sea God's examiners, we cannot lack combat skills in the sea."

Hearing Xiao Fei's words, everyone looked at Huo Wu again, leaving Huo Wu speechless.

Xiao Fei suppressed the urge to burst out laughing: "In the ocean, what could be a better sparring partner than a 100,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark? Besides, the Demon Soul Great White Shark obviously won't seriously injure us."

After listening to Xiao Fei's explanation, everyone felt much more at ease. Finally, they made a plan: practice combat in the sea during the day and train their soul power at night. As for Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang, Xiao Fei suggested that they shouldn't be too eager to increase their soul power, or even temporarily stop increasing it and focus on training for combat in the sea.

Given Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu's physical attributes, even if they break through to the Soul Douluo level now, their Soul Rings would probably only be around 70,000 to 80,000 years old at most. Only after undergoing Tidal Body Tempering could their Divinely Bestowed Soul Rings reach their optimal effect, potentially exceeding 100,000 years.

After listening to Xiao Fei's advice, although Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang were very envious of the divinely bestowed soul ring, based on their trust in Xiao Fei, the two of them spent more time increasing the solidification of their soul power and practicing combat in the sea to improve their physical fitness, without focusing on improving their soul power.

Xiao Fei, on the other hand, focused more on improving his soul power, because he felt that his cultivation speed had slowed down again after entering the Soul Douluo realm. Xiao Fei wanted to reach the Title Douluo level within two years.

Currently, known 100,000-year-old soul beasts are extremely rare, and Xiao Fei doesn't want to find himself without any to absorb later. Besides, Xiao Fei needs many soul rings right now. If all else fails, he'll have to use the Qilin Arm to absorb them.

For some reason, before each time he absorbs a spirit ring, Xiao Fei feels that his Qilin Arm can awaken a second time, but it hasn't yet. Could it be that the Qilin Arm itself has not absorbed a spirit ring?

In the original story, the Body Sect simply threw the Soul Master into the deep sea to endure immense water pressure and oxygen deprivation, forcing the Martial Soul to undergo a second transformation in the face of life and death—a simple and brutal method with a high mortality rate. I certainly don't want to go through that kind of suffering.

Suddenly, a dark shadow in the sea burst forth from the water and lunged directly towards the shore. The 25-meter-long shadow gradually shrank in the air, eventually transforming into the shape of a young girl.

The girl had a perfect figure, snow-white skin, a tall and slender build, and long, gray-white hair. The only difference was whether she had fish fins below her ears. She was also dressed very daringly, showing off her great figure.

Xiao Fei and the other boys stared blankly. Huo Wu grabbed Xiao Fei's ear and said, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman before?" Everyone snapped out of their daze, while Shui Bing'er covered her mouth and chuckled to herself.

Huo Wushuang asked in surprise, "When a Fire Soul Beast transforms into human form, doesn't it lose all its cultivation and become an ordinary person who needs to start cultivating again? How can the Demon Soul Great White Shark transform into human form at will? I remember Xiao Wu from Shrek Academy was also a 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit who transformed, and her strength was only at the Soul Sect level."

The girl snorted coldly: "Ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beasts naturally need to cultivate again to transform into human form. We Demon Soul Great White Sharks can briefly transform into human form under the light of the Sea God, but only for one hour at a time."

"Are you the examiners? You guys look so weak."

The Demon Soul Great White Shark girl sniffed around Xiao Fei, then roared angrily, "Your seventh soul ring was actually given to you by a 100,000-year-old soul beast! You shameless human, you tricked a 100,000-year-old soul beast out of its soul ring and soul bone!"

After saying that, the girl threw a punch directly at him.

Although Huo Wushuang's personality had improved a lot, he still inherited the fiery nature of his martial soul. Seeing the girl's punch, he instantly activated his martial soul, unleashing the Fire Soul Skill of the One-Horned Fire Typhoon: Fiery Impact. However, with their fists meeting, Huo Wushuang was blasted away.

Seeing this, Xiao Fei quickly said to the girl, "Senior, Senior Youming Python sacrificed himself to me voluntarily. We made a deal, and I swore to revive Senior Youming Python."

The girl said haughtily, "Don't try to deny it. I'm smart enough not to be fooled!"

Xiao Fei continued helplessly, "It's just as I said. If you don't believe me, you can ask Senior Nether Python. His soul should still be inside my soul ring."

After speaking, Xiao Fei summoned his seventh spirit ring. It was unclear whether the girl was truly communicating with the Netherworld Python's soul; she sniffed around the edge of the red halo, seemingly discussing something, before her expression gradually improved. Finally, she said seriously, "If you fail to fulfill the Netherworld Python's promise, I will definitely teach you a lesson."

Xiao Fei nodded quickly: "Senior Demon Soul Great White Shark, how did you end up on land? Do you need to give us some kind of lesson?"

"Don't call me 'senior' or anything like that. My name is Xiaobai. I'm just conducting an assessment of you as instructed by Lord Sea God, to see your strength."

"It turns out you're really terrible, not even as good as an ordinary Sea Soul Master. I'll definitely teach you a lesson with my fists next." After saying that, Xiao Bai couldn't help but nod, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.

Xiao Fei and his friends suddenly felt a chill.
