Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 407 One act ends, another begins; might makes right!

After Zhongli Wu finished speaking, he grabbed the Bone Dragon King at his feet and instantly refined it...

No, wait, it was when he grabbed the Bone Dragon King at his feet that his seventh-ranked, black-and-red soul ring, which had been around for over 90,000 years, suddenly shone brightly.

A phantom resembling the Grim Reaper slowly emerged behind Zhongli Wu. The phantom's size was no smaller than that of the Poison Undying Martial Soul True Body. It was shrouded in a black robe, holding a slender scythe. Its face was pitch black, with only two captivating red lights flashing in its eye sockets.

Martial Soul True Form - Death God Demon Puppet!

It was precisely because he possessed this martial soul that Zhongli Wu had the opportunity to tame the Bone Dragon King. It took him more than ten years just to tame the Bone Dragon King, and with the Bone Dragon King's feedback, he was able to reach the Super Douluo level in one fell swoop!

It can be said that the most suitable match for the Bone Dragon King is not him himself, but his martial soul, the Death God Demon Puppet.

"melt!"

Zhongli Wu let out a low shout, and the illusory image of the Death God Puppet behind him instantly transformed into a black shadow and merged into the Bone Dragon King's body.

The enormous Bone Dragon King trembled violently, and a large number of strange and evil black patterns suddenly appeared on the originally white surface of its bones. These black patterns covered all of the Bone Dragon King's bones, leaving no part untouched.

All the way up to the head of the Bone Dragon King, numerous twisted black lines formed an extremely eerie black rune.

Zhongli Wu was sitting upright on this rune.

Not only that, the Bone Dragon King's original blue and red soul flames were also stained black, and this black flame made its already terrifying appearance even more ferocious and horrifying.

Death God Puppet Possessed State: Death God Bone Dragon King!

Although its size has not changed, its aura has increased several times over, even reaching the threshold of the limit!

Zhongli Wu himself rarely uses the Death God Bone Dragon King state, because it is equivalent to adding his Martial Soul True Body into the Bone Dragon King's body, making the Bone Dragon King his own Martial Soul True Body.

Integrating external objects into one's own Martial Soul True Body is an immense burden for a Soul Master, a fragile character with high attack but low imitation. Furthermore, Zhongli Wu rarely encounters opponents who require him to go all out, so this move is being shown to anyone other than himself for the first time.

"The power of the limit..." Zhongli Wu, who was sitting on the head of the Bone Dragon King, instantly transformed into a demonic Powderman, and his evil soul master side was completely revealed.

What is an evil spirit master?

They were a bunch of bloodthirsty, insane lunatics. According to the original story, their attitude towards humans was even more cruel than how humans treated soul beasts.

It can only be said that while San Gou may not excel at other things, he is very good at writing about cruel and dark things, after all, it's a very realistic depiction.

So when Zhongli Wu's mindset became unsettled due to the rapidly expanding power, he finally started to turn evil!

"Hahahaha...Again!" Zhongli Wu laughed wildly, and the Bone Dragon King, under his control, charged forward towards Poison Undying.

Faced with the sudden surge of power from the Bone Dragon King, Poison Undying, though his expression was solemn, did not back down. His eighth-ranked 100,000-year soul ring shone brightly with blood-red light, and the originally bare-chested, dark green giant was instantly covered with a layer of blood-red armor.

With its bulging, explosive muscles covered in blood-red armor, the visual impact of the giant became instantly intense.

Like a god of war!

With the support of this set of soul skill armor, Poison Undying's aura also increased dramatically. This armor soul skill can not only improve his defense, but also enhance his status.

Although the amplification is not as strong as the second awakening of the gold-level spirit, it should be noted that this is a 100,000-year spirit skill. The Poison Undying in this state is already the strongest state without awakening!

Every second of the Gold-level Second Awakening is life-threatening. If he can't be killed by the poison, his lifespan is already short. Unless absolutely necessary, he really doesn't want to risk his life with the Gold-level Awakening.

The armored giant and the dark bone dragon king, each carrying an aura that soared straight into the sky, clashed fiercely.

The fist, covered in armor, struck the dragon claw covered in black magic patterns, producing not only a clanging sound like steel colliding, but also bursting into lightning and sparks.

Snap!

The visible shockwave spread rapidly from the point of impact between the two, shattering vast amounts of space with terrifying force, leaving behind numerous dark and deep cracks in the sky.

However, neither Du Bu Si nor Zhong Li Wu paid any attention to these spatial rifts, as they didn't have much of an impact on them anyway.

In contrast, Jing Hongchen could not ignore these spatial rifts like Du Busi and Zhongli Wu. Although he could use his soul tool to contend with these two super Douluo in terms of raw strength, his comprehension of spatial power was something that he, a titled Douluo of only level 94, could not achieve.

It was precisely because of his actions in avoiding the spatial rift that he attracted the attention of Du Busi and Zhongliwu.

"I almost forgot about you, you toad." The giant, the incarnation of the Poison Immortal, grinned, his huge red eyes looking at Jing Hongchen with amusement.

Having already unleashed his true form, Zhongli Wu's violent tendencies and fighting spirit were also rapidly escalating. At this moment, only more battles could extinguish the flames burning in his heart!

Compared to Du Bu Si, who at least uttered some trash talk as a greeting, Zhong Li Wu was ruthless and taciturn. He raised the bone dragon's claw and grabbed at the toad that Jing Hong Chen had transformed into.

"Come here!!"

The dragon claw tore open spatial rifts and appeared in front of Jing Hongchen almost instantly.

Even though this was just a casual grab from Zhongli Wu, Jing Hongchen didn't dare to underestimate it at all. The ability to tear space apart with a wave of his hand was not something he could easily resist!

A dazzling, dreamlike red light suddenly spread from the toad's chest, completely enveloping Mirror Red Dust and transforming it into a huge, crimson shield.

Level 9 Defensive Soul Tool - Mortal Blessing!

The claw strike, which should have been a devastating blow, only managed to knock Jing Hongchen back a short distance when it landed on the shield formed by Hongchen's protection, causing him almost no trouble.

Just then, the Poison Undying's attack arrived.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared in the path where Jing Hongchen had been repelled. His right fist, which was held at his waist and gathering power, was covered with a thick layer of dark green soul power. The highly condensed soul power even caused a layer of tiny spatial cracks to appear on the edge of Du Busi's fist.

Even before the battle began, Du Busi was already wary of Jing Hongchen. Now that he and Zhongli Wu were able to team up against him in a mixed doubles fight, the cunning Du Busi was sure to use dirty tricks!

"I'll make you fly!" Poisonous Undying roared, his eyes wide with rage, and then his fist, which was resting on his waist, swung out instantly.

Uppercut – Rising Dragon!

boom!!

The round, bubble-shaped Red Dust Protection was deformed and squeezed almost to the point of sticking to Jing Hongchen's Martial Soul True Body by Poison Undying's punch. Jing Hongchen's true body, located in the Martial Soul True Body, also heard the warning sounds coming from the Red Dust Protection Soul Tool on his chest.

This is a warning that the protective shield of the mortal world is about to be breached!

But ultimately it wasn't breached.

No matter what, it's a level nine soul tool, and Jing Hongchen's masterpiece. How could it be destroyed by Zhongli Wu and Du Busi in one move each?

Wouldn't that make Jing Hongchen look like a complete clown? But under Du Busi's punch, Jing Hongchen did indeed fly up, just as Du Busi had said.

Already at an altitude of three to four thousand meters, Jing Hongchen was instantly propelled back to an altitude of six thousand meters by the force of this punch, transforming into a cannonball before finally coming to a stop.

"Good, good, good, truly worthy of being a Soul Master expert." Jing Hongchen stopped being knocked away as his blood surged. After withdrawing the shield formed by Hongchen Protection, his cold eyes locked onto Du Busi and Zhongli Wu.

"I have already experienced the skills of both of you Soul Masters, and they are indeed powerful."

"Now, I invite you two gentlemen to experience firsthand the sharpness of the soul-guided technology of my Sun Moon Empire!"

Now, it's my turn!

"Coo coo coo—quack!!"

A dull croaking sound suddenly rang out, and Jing Hongchen, in his true toad form, roared to the sky, with huge cannon barrels extending from his body.

Some are long and thin, some are short and thick, some are symmetrical, and some are simply two square sticks joined together.

The slender barrel indicates it's a level 9 piercing cannon!

The short, thick barrel indicates a Tier 9 fixed-mount Soul-Guided Cannon!

The symmetrical barrel is a level nine shaped charge cannon!

In addition, there are a large number of different types of soul-guided cannons, such as the Corrosive Soul-Guided Cannon, the Thunder Cannon, the Capture and Restriction Cannon, the Weakening Ray, the Eye of Fear, and so on.

The most eye-catching moment was when the golden sun and silver moon slowly flew out from behind Jing Hongchen at the last moment!

That's right, this is the very weapon that Lin Yun once showed off in front of Xu Jiujiu, boasting an attack power comparable to a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell and capable of sustained output.

The Divine Needle of the Sun and Moon!

The next moment... a barrage of artillery fire!

Countless cannons burst forth with bursts of fire, and shells of different colors rained down on Poison Undying and Zhongliwu from all directions.

Except for the level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells, which were not fired, Jing Hongchen launched all the other soul-guided devices at once!

If it were the old Jing Hongchen, it would have been impossible for him to use so many soul tools at the same time. He could only use a third of them at most, and he couldn't use them for long because his soul power was insufficient.

As a Soul Master with unstable Soul Power and a cultivation level of only 94, how could he possibly use so many level 9 Soul Tools at the same time?

The changes brought about by the advancement of Soul Guidance Technology are earth-shattering!

Thanks to the sealed milk bottle technology developed by his subordinate Soul Master Xuan Ziwen, Jing Hongchen, the most powerful fixed-equipment Soul Master of the Sun Moon Empire, was able to unleash his most dazzling flame!

The visual impact of a full-force bombardment, disregarding all energy expenditure, is like a real meteor shower.

From a height of 6,000 meters, beams of light and projectiles of various colors suddenly burst forth, completely enveloping the Poison Undying and Zhongliwu.

Yes, Jing Hongchen really can't understand the power of space, but what impact does that have?

With his soul tool, he was a super strongman comparable to a level 98 expert. His attack power was enough to make him ignore the difference in soul power level and stand confidently in front of Du Busi and Zhongli Wu!

The enormous fireball burned in the air, as if two suns had suddenly appeared in the sky, creating a scene of three suns in the sky.

Yan Shaozhe, sitting absentmindedly at the entrance of the Sea God Pavilion, already had a bitter expression on his face.

Poison Undying, Zhongliwu, Mirror of the Mortal World!

The first two are fine, after all, even Yan Shaozhe himself is not confident that he can break through to level 98 before his lifespan runs out.

But what gives Mirror Red Dust the right to do so?

He has always looked down on soul tools and soul masters. Even Yu Lanmo, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Super Douluo, could only leave in a sorry state. What qualifications does Jing Hongchen, a weak soul master whose cultivation is not even as good as Yu Lanmo, have to stand in front of two level 98 experts?

Now Yan Shaozhe knows.

Even though Jing Hongchen's achievements in martial soul can be described as a complete mess, and even though Jing Hongchen's soul power level is two levels lower than his, this one burst of power alone is enough to force Yan Shaozhe to reveal his Nirvana trump card.

"Is this... a soul tool?" Yan Shaozhe clenched his fists, his face filled with undisguised regret.

If he had known this would happen, why would he have gone to such lengths to suppress the development of the Soul Guidance System for the benefit of the Martial Soul System?

"It was my fault. I delayed the academy's development, which led to the current situation..."

……

After a round of explosions, the flames and smoke gradually subsided, and Du Bu Si and Zhong Li Wu also moved out of the blast radius.

At this moment, both of these super-strong individuals looked somewhat disheveled.

The blood-red armor that had shown no signs of damage after a long battle between Du Busi and Zhongli Wu now had several faint but real cracks.

After Zhongli Wu's martial spirit true form possessed the Bone Dragon King, many areas of the black magic patterns on his body faded significantly, and some of the magic patterns covering his bones were even completely erased.

"Soul tool..." Poison Undying said in a low voice, dispelling his Martial Soul True Body and transforming into his true form, staring intently at Jing Hongchen, "I underestimated you, I underestimated your soul tool."

"I didn't expect that you could actually rival our strength after years of hard work with these external things." Zhongli Wu also withdrew the true form of the Death God Puppet's martial soul and looked at Jing Hongchen with a calm gaze.

After reverting to his true form, Zhongli Wu regained his composure.

"Want to continue fighting, you two?" Jing Hongchen returned to his original form at a height of three thousand meters, smiling as he looked at the two of them.

In this world, might makes right. Jing Hongchen proved that his fist was no smaller than that of Du Busi and Zhongli Wu, so he naturally gained the right to speak and the right to have an equal dialogue with them.

As for Poison Undying saying he underestimated soul tools...

Jing Hongchen has gotten used to it.

In the eyes of the people of the Sun Moon Empire, the people of the Douluo Three Kingdoms are short-sighted, clinging only to the decadent glory of Soul Masters, and are prejudiced against their Sun Moon Empire.

Whatever~

Time will prove that only Soul Guidance Technology is the true future!
