Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

It was a tall, thin man, completely shrouded in a huge scarlet cloak. His face was unnaturally pale, and his eyes were completely blood red. His body slowly descended from the air, seemingly unaffected by gravity.

Cain and Xu Tianzhen exchanged a glance, their hearts sinking.

Standing in mid-air, he must be at least a Soul Saint.

They are no match for them.

"Two tiny insects somehow got into the road to hell, and I didn't even notice."

The man's bloodshot eyes were fixed on them, his voice low yet piercingly sharp.

A faint, intoxicatingly sweet and fishy scent emanated from him, and Xu Tianzhen almost instantly noticed a slight disturbance in his soul power.

Cain was even more overwhelmed, as if a sense of oppression was coming from the depths of her soul, and her eyes involuntarily turned blood red, similar to the other's.

At that moment, that strange male voice rang in their ears once more:

"Deeper adventures, layered and upgraded, leading straight into the third level of true adventure. Objective: Escape the Hell Road. Requirements: Escape the Hell Road or survive the attack of the King of Slaughter for 15 minutes."

"Timing begins!"

"go!"

Almost the instant the voice explained the requirements, Cain pulled Xu Tianzhen up, his dark gold bat wings suddenly unfurling, attempting to use his speed advantage to overtake the mysterious powerhouse known as the King of Slaughter and escape towards the entrance.

"Oh? Humans can actually awaken a martial soul that is the same as mine? How laughable, daring to show off in front of me who stands at the pinnacle of great blood!"

The King of Slaughter let out a piercing, bat-like laugh, and his cloak billowed behind him without wind, instantly transforming into a pair of enormous, blood-red wings!

Cain was deeply shaken.

The next instant, the blood-red figure, carrying a thick aura of blood, flashed to the two's side!

A streak of red light flashed, and the King of Slaughter raised his right hand slightly. The incomparably sharp blood light was about to cut the two of them in half at the waist, but Cain hurriedly twisted his body to dodge.

At the critical moment, Xu Tianzhen suppressed the urge to vomit and his stomach churned, and the Sun God's Light suddenly burst forth!

As if he had seen something extremely evil, the King of Slaughter retreated rapidly, his scarlet wings tightly enveloping his body for protection.

A wisp of crimson smoke rose, and his voice was filled with exasperation:

"Damn it, how can it be the power of the sun, and such pure sunlight at that?"

Then, looking at Cain who was still activating his martial spirit, he seemed to remember something and said:

"No, even the great me cannot be completely immune to the sun, so how could the lower bloodlines inherited by humans be completely unaffected?"

He let out a sharp, long howl, and crimson ripples spread rapidly, staining both Cain and Xu Tianzhen with a layer of blood.

Xu Tianzhen exerted all her strength to activate her Sun Martial Soul and resisted with all her might. Cain, who was stronger, trembled. Silver light flashed in her eyes, but she could not stop the blood-red erosion. Her flying speed also decreased immediately, and her direction began to become erratic.

"Heh, no matter how special, it's still just a lower-class bloodline. It'll still be subject to my shadow—"

A flash of golden light!

A figure appeared behind him without warning, and a punch slammed down, abruptly interrupting his unfinished words. Caught off guard, the King of Slaughter was sent flying by a punch whose blood energy had reached the level of a Title Douluo.

—Now I finally get the hang of it.

Chapter 86 Martial Soul Fusion, Blood Moon Dance

"It's Tianxu!" Xu Tianzhen exclaimed in surprise. Cain's eyes, which had been in a state of confusion, instantly became clear, and he quickly stopped his descent.

The Golden Bloodlust that Kong Tianxu had activated beforehand was instantly suppressed by a force, and his flying soul tool quickly deployed, rushing towards the location of the two women.

Looking at the scene before him, his heart was filled with turmoil.

A city of slaughter? Is this an illusion? Or...?

A terrifying crimson aura interrupted his thoughts, and the King of Slaughter roared as it charged towards him at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye—

"Where did these bugs come from?!"

Kong Tianxu made no other move, but charged forward. The king of slaughter's blood-red pupils reflected the fleeting mockery in the boy's eyes.

He didn't resist? The God of Destruction himself didn't even realize that his hands, hidden under his wide cloak, had unconsciously clenched.

With a flash of golden light, the King of Slaughter's pair of guillotine-like blades missed their mark.

What is that? Is this spatial power? The King of Slaughter's eyes widened.

A mere fifth-ring Soul King, capable of manipulating space? How could that be?

—Could it be a divine artifact?

His heart burned with fervor, and the bloodlust in his eyes intensified, with crimson ripples surging forth like waves.

It's still the Ring of Teleportation.

In the City of Slaughter, soul skills cannot be used, but the restrictions on soul tools are completely lifted, and Kong Tianxu can use far more methods than that!

With a flash of golden light, Kong Tianxu reappeared. He scooped up Cain and Xu Tianzhen. Although they looked quite disheveled, fortunately, neither of them had any serious injuries.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and the flames of the level-seven flying soul tool behind him burst forth as he fled straight for the exit at top speed.

The King of Slaughter, a monster created by parasitizing Limit Douluo Tang Chen, is not only bizarre in its methods, but its strength is at least at the Title Douluo level, and Tang Chen has absolutely no chance of defeating it now.

But the King of Slaughter, or rather the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, is even faster!

In the blink of an eye, the crimson demonic shadow approached again. The Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King was already one of the fastest martial souls Kong Tianxu had ever seen, but its superior, the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, was even faster, incredibly fast!

"Die!"

If you don't have a soul bone, then the martial soul itself has certain abilities...

Kong Tianxu's gaze sharpened.

"Yin'er, use that."

The City of Slaughter restricts the Soul Skills of Soul Masters, but it cannot restrict the most basic power of Martial Souls.

Amidst the sonic boom that tore through the air, Kong Tianxu grasped Cain's hand. Their eyes met and merged in an instant, and a gentle force suddenly pushed Xu Tianzhen away.

A brilliant silver light suddenly appeared, and the demonic blood wings of the King of Slaughter, which were almost within reach, paused slightly, as if unwilling to ruin the exquisite scene rendered by the silver light.

In a blood-red world that resembled hell, Kong Tianxu and Cain stood facing each other.

A wing sprouted from each side of their bodies—Cain's was still a bat wing that looked like metal, but it had turned blood red, with the tips covered with gorgeous patterns in dark gold and silver, exuding a chillingly sharp aura.

Kong Tianxu's was a dragon wing covered with silver rhomboid dragon scales, though it appeared somewhat illusory.

Surprisingly, even though they were not yet at the Soul Saint realm and their wings did not flap, they remained steadily suspended in the air.

The crimson and silver hues blended together, creating a beautiful and alluring color.

Kong Tianxu's silver wings folded slightly, while Cain's blood wings unfolded fully. The two began to rotate around their embracing bodies as if in a dance. The enormous blood-red bat wings were swung down by terrifying force, as if to draw a circle in the air.

Cain's wing, stretched to its maximum length, resembled the tip of a giant sword, tearing a bloody line through the magnificent waltz.

Blood color meets blood color.

"when--"

A crisp metallic clang rang out.

Kong Tianxu and Cain both trembled, their faces turning even paler than the King of Slaughter opposite them, yet neither retreated in the slightest. The Blood Demon Wings, powerful enough to tear apart a Soul Douluo, were actually caught so easily.

Martial Soul Fusion Skill - Blood Moon Dance.

Xu Tianzhen watched this scene with a mixture of surprise and joy in her eyes, but a trace of sadness also flashed across them.

Cain once told her that she was Kong Tianxu's sword.

She thought it was a description.

It turned out not to be.

When the Moonlight of the Silver Dragon meets the crimson yearning for the eternal moon within the bloodline of the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King, these two seemingly unrelated martial souls are fused together.

Although the fusion rate was not high, it was only fifty percent at the beginning. Even though Kong Tianxu nurtured Cain's body with his soul power for a long time, it only increased to sixty percent, which was still not enough for cultivation.

However, as the ultimate power of the fusion of martial souls, when it erupts, it still shows a power that surpasses either Kong Tianxu or Cain, achieving a synergistic effect greater than the sum of its parts.

—Transformed into a blood-moon sword!

A piercing scraping sound arose as two distinct auras of crimson light clashed wildly. Under the immense force of the dragging, fine crimson lines cracked on the King of Slaughter's body, his eyes momentarily glazed over, and the surging crimson flames around him weakened.

Two bursts of blood finally erupted!

The aftershocks of their soul power simultaneously blasted both of them away. Kong Tianxu, enduring the emptiness and surging blood within his body, embraced the unconscious Cain, turned around and grabbed Xu Tianzhen, who had been harassing the King of Slaughter with the Sunfire, and once again activated his flying soul tool with all his might, speeding towards the exit.

No matter how powerful their Martial Soul Fusion Skill is, it is still only launched by one Soul King and one Soul Master, reaching an attack power close to that of a Title Douluo. It is already heaven-defying that they can barely contend with the King of Slaughter.

However, the opponent was indeed a Title Douluo, or even a Super Douluo.

Even if they were temporarily suppressed by Kong Tianxu's sudden outburst, he could still easily kill them when their soul power was depleted.

"Still trying to run?"

The wind howled sharply. Kong Tianxu looked back intently, and sure enough, the blood-red figure attacked again. The King of Slaughter seemed to have been truly enraged, and its speed was even more astonishing than before.

He transferred the fixing device of the flying soul tool to the two women respectively.

"Tianxu, what are you doing? I said, if we're going to die, we'll die together!" Xu Tianzhen struggled violently.

"I've said it before, none of us will die."

The boy fell with a gentle smile, a flash of black light in his hand, and a magnificent, purple-red heavy cannon appeared in his hand.

Level 7 fixed-equipment soul guide device, Thunder Demon Heavy Cannon.

"Stay here!"

The King of Slaughter's shriek rose again, and the entire Hell Road seemed to tremble slightly. He stretched out his wings and shot forward like an arrow released from a bow!

A pale golden light enveloped his entire body, blocking all the terrifying screams that came his way. Kong Tianxu seemed not to hear it, and an aura of destruction spread from the muzzle of the cannon.

Wasn't he running out of soul power? The King of Slaughter's pupils contracted slightly, but his speed increased instead of decreasing. Even if Kong Tianxu could unleash an attack of that level again, he could still keep him in check!

A burst of intense lightning suddenly erupted! A terrifying purple beam of light swept across the Thunder Demon Heavy Cannon in an instant amidst its roar, which sounded like the wrath of a god.

My lord, times have changed!

Kong Tianxu's lips curled into a mocking smile. A destructive lightning bolt, equivalent to a full-force attack from a Contra-level character, raged outwards, completely engulfing the figure of the King of Slaughter!
