Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

After all, in the close combat where every move draws blood, he was only expending his soul power, while the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was losing flesh from its body.

Combining his unparalleled control over power with his combat instincts, Kong Tianxu countered each move with equal precision. The Holy Radiance Starry Sky Domain continuously provided him with energy replenishment and purification, offsetting some of the erosion and depletion caused by the evil energy.

But the longer the battle went on, the more alarmed both sides became.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was shocked by the fact that this human's soul power fluctuations were only at the Soul Saint level, yet the soul power seemed to be inexhaustible, showing no signs of depletion, and there were clearly distorted fluctuations of the soul core within the soul power.

The power of the sacred dragon it transformed into was astonishing, giving it the feeling that it was fighting a real dragon. The dragon scales, which carried a sense of weight and soil, were exceptionally hard, and when the tiger's paw struck them, it made its muscles and bones go numb.

Even more outrageous is that I was actually being subtly countered by his attributes!

The unicorn's sacredness and ultimate light were one thing; it had grown accustomed to that pain over the years. But being occasionally grazed by those bizarre attacks, a mix of extreme ice and extreme fire, brought on by the extreme pain of being torn between ice and fire, was a taste it was something it was unwilling to experience again.

Kong Tianxu's heart was also heavy. In terms of skill level, he was undoubtedly superior, but the lead was by a very small margin. The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger far surpassed his total soul power and possessed incredibly cunning combat intelligence, causing his consumption to exceed expectations.

The battle dragged on without a clear victor, and the dark demonic tiger's eyes gleamed with even greater ferocity, as if it had lost patience.

It suddenly let out a sharp screech, and the Evil God Hook suddenly erupted with a monstrous gray-black light, a deadly aura that froze the very space around it, locking onto the Holy Dragon.

Dark Demonic Lightning! It compressed the three attributes of evil, wind, and lightning to the extreme, forming a gray lightning ball that kept expanding, and shot out with a roar! Wherever it passed, even the domain space was torn apart.

This is the moment!

A brilliant purple-gold light shone in Kong Tianxu's eyes! The true form of the sacred dragon maintained its posture of confronting the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger head-on, spewing dragon breath to resist the Dark Demon Evil Lightning.

However, his "self"—his human form—separated from the dragon's brow in that instant, transforming into a pure golden humanoid figure of light!

Using both martial souls simultaneously, the main martial soul undergoes a second awakening at the gold level!

But this is not over yet.

Behind that dazzling golden light, a pair of pure white wings, composed entirely of holy light, suddenly unfolded!

Chapter 235 Third Awakening, Seven Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings!

Upon closer inspection, it was clearly the initial form of the Unicorn's Starry Wings before it merged with Kong Tianxu, as pure and pristine as the first snowflakes falling from the clouds, untouched by dust.

An unparalleled and powerful will surged forth, and the core of Kong Tianxu's physical body erupted like a geyser, with blazing golden light radiating outwards from his body in all directions. The light and shadow of the pair of star-like wings behind him also began to solidify rapidly.

At first, it was simply the pure white color of a nebula. But as energy was poured in frantically, the color of the wings began to change.

First it turned into an ancient bronze color, then into a bright silver, and finally, it was dyed a pure gold that blended seamlessly with the rest of its body!

In terms of form, it has also changed, looking quite peculiar. It is no longer a feather, but has become a kind of wing similar to the wings of an ancient sacred dragon.

Beneath the almost transparent golden feathers, one can vaguely see layers of fine, dragon-scale-like golden patterns, creating a mysterious and perfect texture.

If the original body Douluo hadn't died here, he would have realized that Kong Tianxu's current situation was a sign of the evolution of the previous Body Sect Masters from the Silver-level Second Awakening to the most powerful Gold-level Second Awakening.

Kong Tianxu was already at the peak of the second awakening of the innate gold level.

Therefore, at this moment, his realm has reached a new level.

Using a soul bone that perfectly matches oneself as a catalyst, the original martial soul underwent an unprecedented second growth, resulting in this unprecedented achievement—

The original martial soul has awakened three times!

In the long process of condensing the soul core, comprehending the will of heaven, and refining himself and integrating all laws with the vast starry sea as a furnace, his main body martial soul finally broke through the ultimate limit of the second awakening and stepped into the third awakening realm that only existed in the imagination of the successive sect masters of the Body Sect!

At the very moment the main body completed its third awakening, the soul rings that had been hidden for so long finally emerged one by one from the majestic and sacred dragon's true form.

The first spirit ring was an ominous color that made the Dark Demon God Tiger's heart tremble.

It was blood-red. The first soul ring in ten thousand years.

Following closely behind was red, red, red, red, red, red, bright red!

A total of seven 100,000-year soul rings, each exuding an aura of imperious power!

Especially the third and seventh ranked ones, one with seven golden patterns shining brightly, and the other so large that it shakes one's mind, with seven blood-red halos wrapped around the dragon's body, pushing the aura of the sacred dragon to a peak that makes the entire Holy Radiance Starry Sky tremble.

Any Body Sect expert who can undergo a second awakening will experience a qualitative leap in strength. If they have enough luck, even their own spirit rings will change along with the evolution of their martial spirit.

This is why the spirit ring configurations of many powerful members of the Body Sect are completely different from the standard configurations of normal spirit masters. For example, Yu Tao, the right-arm spirit master who once tried to bully the Dark Dragon Emperor Long Xiaoyao, accidentally accumulated a huge amount of energy while absorbing his fourth spirit ring, ultimately forming a spirit ring configuration of four purple and four black.

The Ascension Ritual in the Holy Spirit Cult has a similar effect. Through the opportunity of the complete corruption of the Martial Soul, supplemented by a large amount of soul and flesh energy, the Soul Ring is further advanced.

Kong Tianxu's soul core has maintained its maximum rotation speed throughout the past year, so his absorption of the stellar energy from the fallen star plane has not been in vain.

Apart from using a portion of it to improve his own soul power, the remaining power was all invested in the soul ring sublimation that combined these two methods.

It can be said that he deserves at least half the credit for the rapid decline of the Fallen Star Plane.

But everything is for the sake of future survival.

Kong Tianxu's mind was as firm as iron, and the golden light and shadow of his separated body were completely synchronized with the will of the sacred dragon's true form.

The light and shadow seemed to want to wield a sword, but after a moment's hesitation, it simply pointed two fingers together and made a half-hearted slash at the Dark Demon God Tiger.

The sacred dragon raised its head and roared, its immense dragon power instantly splitting into a giant, purple-gold Heavenly Heart Sword, which slashed upwards diagonally.

Heavenly Heart Sword, Heavenly Heart My Heart. Soul-Severing and Spirit-Stealing!

As the sword flashed, the powerful Dark Demon God Tiger seemed to have lost its soul, standing there blankly as the purple-gold giant sword invaded its tiger body.

Even more strangely, the purple-gold giant sword, which was clearly solid and had clearly cut through the smooth, black fur of the Dark Demon God Tiger, did not cause any perceptible damage, as if it were an illusory bubble without any substance.

However, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, whose cultivation was nearly two hundred thousand years old, felt an unprecedented sense of horror and panic.

This power is unlike any other power it has experienced in countless battles over the past 20,000 years; it is impossible to defend against and impossible to resist.

It could clearly feel that its will was being easily cleaved in two by the sword light, and that when the sword light completely disappeared, its soul would also perish.

The Heavenly Heart Sword is an ultimate combat technique specifically designed to target the spirit and soul. It can erase, divide, sever, or even alter the consciousness of a living being.

Unless one's spiritual power is higher than Kong Tianxu's, or one's soul power is far greater, once the sword strike is completed, the destiny of Heaven will be sealed.

This sword strike shattered the very heart of heaven.

The purple-gold giant sword swept through the body of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, even creating ripples of gray energy like eerie currents. These were the wisps of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul that were escaping, showing how much pain it was enduring—a hellish torment akin to being slowly sliced ​​to death.

As the first creature to face this combat technique, the Dark Demon God Tiger was extremely unlucky.

The Dark Demon God Tiger let out a piercing scream, its massive body convulsing violently, and the light in its blood-red eyes instantly dimmed and became chaotic. The damage to the soul from the Heavenly Heart Soul Severing Technique far surpasses that of ordinary mental shocks.

Its pent-up dark demonic lightning also went out of control, exploding not far in front of it, which instead blasted itself open, leaving it with torn flesh and flowing black blood.

But Kong Tianxu's brows furrowed slightly. Sometime later, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's eyes regained a spark of life, and the Heavenly Heart Sword slowed down at the "King" character on the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's forehead.

Suddenly, a bizarre scene unfolded.

Within the eyes of the Dark Demon God, two small vortexes, one black and one white, appeared simultaneously, spinning wildly in opposite directions, rendering the "King" character on his forehead black and white.

Around it, especially around the Heavenly Heart Sword that was slowly slicing through the soul, small black and white vortexes rippled. Centered on the body of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, the space began to tremble slightly, and small vortexes fell from the Heavenly Heart Sword and spread outwards.

Behind it, two beams of light slowly emerged.

The two orbs of light and shadow appeared to be a sun and a moon, with the sun being a terrifying black and the moon a dazzling white.

Black sun, white moon.

But even the sun and moon could not stop the will of Heaven. The six golden wings danced wildly behind Kong Tianxu, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had no power to resist. Its enormous soul was split in two!

Chapter 236 Yin and Yang Complement Each Other? The Fall of the Holy Winged Star!

Kong Tianxu could clearly see that before the Heavenly Heart Sword split his soul in two, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's eyes flashed with extremely complex emotions, including pain, reluctance, resentment, and even a hint of unspeakable forbearance and haggardness.

But there was no hesitation whatsoever.

The purplish-gold sword light reappeared from between the tiger's brows, then suddenly returned to the body of the sacred dragon.

However, the body of the Dark Demon God Tiger underwent a dramatic transformation, starting from the majestic "King" character pattern on its forehead.

Within the right half of the character "王" (king), tiny specks of white light began to emanate, quickly transforming into pure white. In an instant, this white light completely covered the right half of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body.

Black and white coexist in a strange and shocking way.

On the right side of the Dark Demon God Tiger's body, a pure white wing flutters, exuding a sacred purity; while on the left, the Evil God Hook's Yin-burning ashes are a somber, extremely black color, like the sedimentation of mist.

As the sword light flashed, the body of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger split in two, transforming into one jet-black energy vortex and the other snow-white energy vortex. The surrounding airflow immediately fluctuated violently, forming unstable airflow vortices mixed with black and white colors.

At the core of that rapidly rotating airflow, the black sun and the white moon appeared simultaneously.

The Soul Core is a rotating entity that is mutually attracted by the complementary relationship between Yin and Yang.

The larger, black soul core among them should be the true soul core of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, an ultimate evil attribute soul core.

Kong Tianxu was very familiar with the white one; it was currently only a rudimentary soul core, but it had been infused with a large amount of light-attribute soul power.

The two vortexes of soul cores appeared and then transformed once more. The black, extremely evil soul core transformed into a slightly smaller Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, its aura extremely weak, while the white one transformed into a majestic and holy white tiger.

However, this sacred white tiger has been suspended in mid-air without moving since it appeared. Its eyes are dim and lifeless, and inside its somewhat transparent body, one can see that the nascent soul core with the attribute of light has stopped rotating.

Immediately afterwards, the white tiger's massive body suddenly collapsed at an incredible speed, as if the entire space had frozen in an instant, and all energy fluctuations had stopped at that moment.

In that instant, it was as if a black hole had appeared in the starry sky, and the primordial energy of heaven and earth frantically gathered towards that core.

The white tiger disappeared, replaced by a huge crystal. This crystal appeared to be spindle-shaped, pure white, and surrounded by darkness, a darkness that seemed capable of swallowing everything.

Catalyzed by nearly half of the soul and the nascent soul core, this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger actually managed to create a substitute with completely different attributes, almost like a clone!

No wonder, Kong Tianxu muttered to himself.

His initial intention in using the Heavenly Heart Sword was to unleash a killing intent, but inexplicably, he felt a sense of unease, and in the end, he did not use his full strength, only employing the "Break" technique.

The soul core, which has not yet fully condensed, is as fragile as a newborn baby, and has not yet formed a true yin-yang complementary cycle with the main soul core within the body.

Even so, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's forced activation in such a cruel way, almost like a cesarean section, still managed to exert such a miraculous life-saving effect, allowing it to escape the Heavenly Heart Sword.

This undoubtedly gave Kong Tianxu great inspiration; he realized that the soul core could be used and activated in this way.

At the same time, this made him even more certain of his judgment: this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was less of an evil beast and more like an extremely cunning and terrifyingly experienced evil soul master.

The reason why the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger clan can become the most powerful among the evil devouring soul beasts is not only due to their powerful talents that even top-level soul beasts cannot match, but also because of their extremely high intelligence, which is no less than that of humans from birth, and unlike other evil soul beasts, their minds are not affected by evil attributes.

Imagine, even an ordinary human being, if he lived a conscious life for more than a hundred years, would probably be considered a wise man. But this 100,000-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had struggled to survive for at least 20,000 years!

Over the course of more than 20,000 years, how many methods has it accumulated, and how many attempts has it made in its cultivation?

For any Soul Master or Soul Beast, this is the most terrifying opponent.

Kong Tianxu was right. This Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was an extremely intelligent individual even within its own kind, and its ambition was astonishing.

More than 10,000 years ago, after witnessing the power of the Beast God Di Tian, ​​it parted ways with its twin brother and resolutely gave up the more favorable but also more dangerous living environment of the Star Dou Great Forest.
