"The first soul skill, charm!"
Hu Liena's eyes shimmered with pink light, and the mental shock pierced the Lion King's already clouded mind.
The Golden Lion King's body stiffened, and his eyes completely glazed over.
In that instant, Xuan Hao moved.
He didn't use any fancy moves. He activated his Golden Dragon Body, concentrated his soul power on his right fist, and leaped high into the air like a golden meteor, smashing it down hard on the Golden Lion King's huge head!
"Be careful in your next life, don't fight with poisonous spiders!"
"boom--!!"
A muffled thud.
The already critically injured and dying Golden Lion King had no ability to resist, and his skull shattered instantly under the terrifying power of the Golden Dragon.
It didn't even have time to let out a final cry before its massive body twitched once more, then collapsed completely to the ground, lifeless.
A deep purple soul ring slowly rose from the corpse.
"It's done."
Xuan Hao clapped his hands, looked at the spirit ring, and nodded in satisfaction. "You're really lucky."
……
Two hours later.
As Xuan Hao slowly opened his eyes, a deep and majestic roar echoed within his body.
He stood up, his bones crackling, and his already powerful aura became even more unfathomable.
"Level 22."
Xuan Hao sensed the fluctuations of soul power within his body. "Not bad."
"What about the soul skill?" Yan eagerly leaned closer. "A soul skill given by such a top-tier lion king must be incredibly powerful, right?"
"fierce?"
Xuan Hao smiled mysteriously, looking at the three people who had gathered around him, "Then you'd better stand firm, or you'll pee your pants in fear."
After saying that, he took a deep breath, and his second soul ring suddenly lit up, its purple light dazzling.
"The second soul skill——"
Xuan Hao suddenly opened his mouth, aimed at the three people in front of him, and a terrifying roar that combined the majesty of a dragon with the domineering power of a mad lion burst out from deep in his throat!
"Golden Dragon Roar!!"
"Roar!!!"
In an instant, a tangible golden sound wave swept forward in a fan shape, centered on Xuan Hao!
This was not just a sound; it also contained a terrifying mental shock and physical vibration, and even the surrounding air was distorted by the roar.
"Holy crap—"
Yan, who was closest, felt a "buzz" in his head, as if someone had hit the top of his head with a sledgehammer. He instantly lost his balance and flew backward four or five meters before landing hard on his backside. He saw stars and his mind went blank for a moment.
Although Xie Yue and Hu Liena reacted quickly, immediately covering their ears and mobilizing their soul power for defense, they still felt a strong wave of dizziness. Their soul power stagnated for a moment. Hu Liena, in particular, as a beast-type soul master, was unable to move and her body stiffened uncontrollably in place.
"Splash—"
The leaves of trees within a ten-meter radius were instantly shattered, turning into dust and falling to the ground.
The dizziness subsided after a few seconds.
Yan shook his head and got up from the ground. "What kind of nonsense are you spouting? I felt like my soul power had dissipated! My brain is like mush!"
"What the hell is that yelling? That's the roar of a golden dragon," Xuan Hao said speechlessly.
"A wide-range, group-wide, powerful soul skill. The effect is simple: it deals both sonic and mental damage to enemies within the range. If their mental strength is far lower than mine, they will probably faint directly."
"Moreover, the roar carries the suppressive power of the dragon, which is extremely effective against beast spirit masters."
As they spoke, all three of them subconsciously looked at Hu Liena.
Xie Yue is a weapon spirit master, while Yan is a beast spirit master. However, his martial spirit, Flame Lord, is an ancient and unusual martial spirit that leans towards elemental creatures. Although he is also affected by Xuan Hao's dragon might, it is not a significant factor.
However, what Hu Liena said...
Chapter 21 A Hundred Thousand Year Transformed Soul Beast
……
"What are you looking at! Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!"
Hu Liena felt embarrassed by the three people staring at her. Although she hadn't fully recovered, she still forced a fierce glare back, finally fixing her gaze on Xuan Hao, the instigator, and threatened through gritted teeth:
"And you! If you dare try this on me again, I'll tell the teacher! I'll say you bullied your senior! I'll have her put you in solitary confinement and spank you until your bottom is a bloody mess!"
"No, no, no! I was wrong!" Xuan Hao immediately backed down.
He was genuinely afraid. Bibi Dong was incredibly protective of her own, especially when it came to her "daughter," Hu Liena. If she really went to complain, he was afraid he would lose his job.
"Alright, we've got the spirit ring, let's get out of here quickly," Xie Yue said. "The stench of blood here is too strong, and with that shout just now, it's likely that all the spirit beasts within a few kilometers have been alerted."
The four of them had just finished packing their things and were preparing to leave.
Sudden.
"Boom!"
A series of dense vibrations came from the depths of the forest. At first, they were very faint, like thousands of horses galloping, but in just a few breaths, the sound became deafening, and even the ground beneath our feet began to tremble violently.
"That commotion..."
Yan's expression changed. He lay down on the ground and listened carefully. "Something's wrong! There are too many of them! And they're moving extremely fast!"
Without saying a word, Xie Yue leaped up a giant tree tens of meters high and gazed into the distance.
The next second, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his face turned deathly pale.
"Run! Run!!"
Xie Yue leaped down from the tree. "It's a beast tide! A huge horde of frightened soul beasts is charging this way! They're all large soul beasts over a thousand years old!"
"A beast tide?!"
Hu Liena and Yan exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
"It must have been your voice just now!" Xie Yue shouted back at Xuan Hao as he dragged Hu Liena along. "The Golden Dragon's Roar carries its own dragon might, and those inferior thousand-year-old soul beasts were terrified. They instinctively huddled together to escape, which resulted in a chain reaction!"
"Once this small-scale beast tide forms, even a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast will be trampled into mincemeat! Run!!"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Hao turned and ran.
He also knew the terror of the beast tide. It was a torrent of countless mad beasts, who had lost their minds and only knew how to run wildly.
The charge of hundreds or even thousands of thousand-year-old soul beasts would make even a Soul Saint flee, let alone these few Great Soul Masters.
"Damn it! Where did that freak Yue Guan go?!"
Xuan Hao cursed inwardly, then dashed off with the three of them towards the edge of the forest.
However, a person's two legs can never outrun a four-legged beast.
The roar behind them grew closer and closer, and they could even smell the suffocating dust and the pungent stench unique to soul beasts.
Looking back, they saw a dark, overwhelming horde of beasts sweeping in like a raging flood, felling trees and cracking the earth in their wake.
"It's too late!"
Xie Yue watched the approaching horde of beasts, a flicker of despair in his eyes. "They're too fast! At this rate, we'll be caught in less than half a minute!"
Hu Liena's face turned deathly pale; her martial soul had not yet recovered from the effects of the Golden Dragon's Roar.
Xuan Hao took a deep breath. "Xie Yue! You take them and run towards the cliff on the left! I'll lure them away!"
"Are you crazy?!" Huliena screamed, trying to rush back. "That's a beast tide! You'll die!!"
"I won't die! I have a golden dragon body, thick skin and tough flesh! Besides, I have dragon blood, so I can keep them in check for a while!"
"Besides, this is my fault."
"run!"
Xuan Hao roared, giving them no chance to refute. His body blazed with golden light, and instead of retreating, he advanced, activating his Golden Dragon Body. Like a golden nail, he plunged fiercely into the black tide of beasts!
"hold head high--!!!"
Another earth-shattering dragon roar!
The golden dragon's might erupted as if it were a tangible force, causing the dozens of soul beasts charging at the forefront to halt in their tracks. The beast horde, which had been charging straight ahead, was forced to split up and scatter to the sides due to this momentary pause and fear.
"Run!!"
Xuan Hao's voice was drowned out by the deafening roar of the beasts.
"Xuan Hao!!"
……
I don't know how much time passed.
A cool sensation brushed across my face, carrying a faint fragrance of grass and trees.
Xuan Hao struggled to move his eyelids, his whole body felt like it was falling apart, every bone in his body was protesting.
"hiss……"
He gasped and slowly opened his eyes.
What came into view was not a gloomy and terrifying hell, nor a bloody scene of a beast tide, but a peaceful and tranquil little lake.
Sunlight filters through the leaves and dapples the lake's surface, creating a shimmering effect.
On the grass not far from him sat a woman who looked to be in her twenties.
She wore a simple light pink dress, her long hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall, her features soft and gentle, radiating a reassuring maternal glow.
At that moment, she was holding a damp handkerchief, as if she had just wiped the blood off his face.
"woke up?"
