Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

The blood-red soul ring was so powerful. The fiery dragon shadow that floated in the sky and earth fell down again after circling several times. Suddenly, Yan's left arm shone with red light. A phantom blood shadow resembling a dragon claw gradually condensed and slowly overlapped with his left arm.

This little dragon truly lives up to its reputation as a powerful divine beast that inherited the Dragon King's title. It possessed the cultivation of an adult dragon from birth, helped Yan condense a 100,000-year soul ring and obtain a 100,000-year soul bone, and the soul skills it provided were absolutely extremely powerful abilities.

"You stinky Yan, you big bad guy, you can't move now, so I have to do it."

Besides Yan and the little dragon, the three-eyed golden lion had been observing their situation from within the six-pointed star formation. Once she was sure everything was going smoothly, she began to act according to the steps that Yan had deduced. A brilliant golden light rose up, and her body gradually glowed.

Golden light and shadow pulsed across the three-eyed golden lion's body, and the golden light it emitted took on a flame-like form. At the same moment, everything in the world seemed to lose its luster.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion began to blur. She seemed to turn into a ball of light, her luminous body gradually rising up and finally arriving in front of Yan, gently touching her soft head to Yan's forehead.

"This scoundrel is annoying, but his aura isn't unpleasant."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion spoke softly, and a huge vertical eye appeared behind her, its shadow flickering. It looked up at the sky, its three eyes opening simultaneously, as if the power of destiny had been mobilized, unfolding in the beautiful direction she desired.

Chapter 436 Celestial Phenomena

"This feeling is really great."

When the Three-Eyed Golden Lion released its soul light and merged with Yan, Yan felt as if his body was immersed in magma. The intense heat enveloped every part of his body, and his body seemed to be filled with power, as if he was being sublimated.

His spiritual sea became exceptionally full, and although he was not particularly skilled in mental abilities, his eyes shone with a brilliant, golden light.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion is an auspicious imperial beast, and a divine beast of destiny possessing the power of fate. From the moment of its birth, this special divine beast is destined for a life full of hardships. Even a divine beast of destiny cannot ultimately escape the pull of fate.

After getting to know Yan, Qiu'er learned many things she didn't know before and also speculated about her own fate. It's almost impossible for someone like her, who controls fate, to grow to her peak smoothly; she will definitely experience all kinds of tribulations.

She had considered how to resolve the situation and finally made her choice today. Rather than passively waiting for an unfortunate fate to befall her, she decided to choose someone she valued and get involved in their destiny to fight against it. If she won, everything would be fine; if she lost, it would all be over.

The person she chose was naturally Yan. The moment she made her decision, it also meant that the fates of countless people would change, and the future had already become uncertain.

In Yan's spiritual sea, his soul was sublimating, and his soul power was also transforming. All the power he possessed was rapidly sublimating. His spiritual realm, which was tangible but intangible, evolved into a tangible and substantial one, allowing Yan's spiritual level to reach the pinnacle of the world and completely enter the ranks of the strong.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion and the Little Flame True Dragon are both very special. One is a divine beast of destiny with the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, and the other is the last pure-blooded fire dragon king of the ancient dragon race.

Their simultaneous choice to form a soul contract with Yan brought him an incredibly powerful foundation. In addition, the ninth ring titled Douluo is itself a major realm of transformation, which naturally led to a holistic sublimation and transformation in Yan.

A halo quietly appeared around Yan, then began to spin and pulsate wildly around him, undergoing various changes.

Originally, the soul ring configuration was one yellow, two purple, one black, and four red. At this time, there were obvious changes. The ninth soul ring was almost complete and clear, and its blood-red dragon shadow soul light was in no way inferior to the other four blood-red 100,000-year soul rings.

Meanwhile, at Yan's first spirit ring position, the phantom of a blazing demonic lion was constantly fluctuating, its light flickering as if it were unstable. Around the periphery of this spirit ring, a golden beast-shaped figure seemed to be merging with and replacing the origin of this spirit ring.

After the Three-Eyed Golden Lion forms a contract with a spirit, it also needs at least one spirit ring to house the spirit's origin. However, Yan's nine spirit ring slots are already full, so theoretically he cannot afford ten.

However, there's always a way out. Yan's soul ring slots were full, but that didn't mean he couldn't free up a spot. Referring to the original novel, when Tang San resurrected Xiao Wu and sacrificed his soul ring to obtain a new one, soul rings can indeed be replaced, although the conditions are somewhat stringent.

However, given Yan's current strength, the so-called harsh conditions are merely a matter of whether he wants to do them or not. Therefore, it is only natural for him to use the soul power of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to fuse and replace his first soul ring.

As for why the first spirit ring was replaced, it was mainly due to the issue of spirit ring compatibility, as the first spirit ring has a higher success rate.

In the original story, Tang San reacquired his spirit rings by hunting spirit beasts of the same race. The Flaming Lion and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion were similar in terms of race and bloodline, making them more suitable than the Golden Bird and the Mirror Beast. Moreover, their younger age meant lower backlash, so they were chosen instead.

As the bursts of soul light gradually stabilized, the nine soul rings that had been constantly rotating also settled down. The five blood-red soul rings that circled around the flames were so dazzling. Five 100,000-year soul rings were unprecedented in the history of cultivation in the Douluo Continent.

His first four spirit rings also underwent a miraculous change. The last three were fine, with no obvious changes. The main change was to his first spirit ring, which changed from bright yellow to a strange gold. It emitted a faint rose color, yet possessed a golden brilliance.

This special-colored spirit ring possesses unique and extraordinary effects. Once the golden spirit ring was completely stabilized, the golden spirit light that had been diffused across his body had fully merged into it. His body remained suspended in mid-air before slowly descending to the ground.

Everything around seemed to transform into black and white. Thunder rumbled in the sky, a sudden gust of wind arose, followed by a shaking of the mountains and the earth. Streaks of lightning flashed across the sky, and the sound of thunder seemed to shatter the heavens and the earth.

In the distance, a crimson light flashed across the sky, and an indescribable, immense pressure rose up, causing all the soul beasts on the entire Douluo Continent to raise their heads in unison. The soul beasts of Sunset Forest, in particular, were nearly killed by the dragon's might just now, and this commotion nearly terrified them to death.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion is a divine beast of destiny involving the source power of the Douluo Continent, and is also the emperor auspicious beast of the soul beast race. The change in its source is an extremely important event for the entire soul beast group and even all living beings on the Douluo Continent, thus causing celestial phenomena.

The existence and significant changes of this imperial auspicious beast even affect the will of the plane. The moment she and Yan formed a soul contract, their originally predetermined fate became a chaotic mess with no future.

……

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

Deep within the Starry Sky Forest, the once clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and in an instant, thunder rumbled and torrential rain poured down.

The entire Star Dou Great Forest was hit by a once-in-a-century torrential rain. But strangely, there were no dark clouds in the sky, and at the end of the rainstorm, a golden light appeared, turning the entire sky above the Star Dou Great Forest golden.

What's going on?

Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, the towering Titan Ape was carrying out its daily patrol routine when a sudden change in the landscape made it look up. It quickly ran to a small lake in the center of the forest.

"Pfft~~~"

When the Titan Ape arrived, the lake was churning and a huge head emerged. The Azure Bull Python, with a bull's head and a snake's body, gazed at the sky with an extremely solemn expression. "This strange phenomenon seems to be related to auspicious beasts. Could it be that humans have deceived us?"

The Azure Bull Python, having at least the bloodline of an ancient dragon, had a closer and more obvious connection with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. Naturally, it sensed that this celestial anomaly was related to the auspicious beast, and couldn't help but feel suspicious and worried, its heart filled with some anxiety.

Titan Ape scratched his head. "Da Ming, you're overthinking it. That guy named Yan, although he annoyingly stole Sister Xiao Wu, I think he was still quite sincere towards us."

"I hope so, but I have a bad feeling about it."

The Azure Bull Python responded in a deep voice, then suddenly looked up and gazed at the deeper part of the Starry Sky Forest. The area that was originally shrouded in thick fog now seemed to have undergone a very obvious change.

"Roar~~~"

"Squeak..."

"Aww~~~"

"Choo Choo Choo……"

"Om~~~"

……

Suddenly, various roars of beasts erupted from the core area of ​​the central forest of the Star Dou Great Forest, which had been sealed off. Along with these roars, powerful auras also appeared, and the ferocious beasts that had been dormant for a long time had awakened.

These powerful beings, who appeared in the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest to observe the celestial phenomena, came in various forms, each exuding an unparalleled aura of terror, which became even more pronounced the closer they got to the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest.

These soul beasts that were the first to awaken and notice the celestial anomaly were all top-tier beings from the strongest soul beast gathering place on the entire continent, and they were also able to sense the special meaning behind this anomaly.

"Roar~~~"

A powerful and domineering dragon roar resounded from the Lake of Life deep within the core area. An enormous, pitch-black dragon shadow burst out of the lake and then transformed into a black storm that continued to condense.

As the black storm gradually subsided, a man dressed in a black robe appeared. He hovered silently in the air above the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, gazing at the intense strange phenomenon in the sky, his eyes gleaming with an eerie light.

The man in the black robe had a resolute and cold appearance, with long black hair that hung down his back to his heels. Not a hair more, not a hair less. Among this full head of black hair, two strands of golden hair stood out, quietly hanging in front of him.

Although every aura around him was extremely powerful, no one dared to hover in the air higher than him.

"The celestial anomaly has led to an important decision by a being closely related to the soul beast race. He is from my Star Dou Great Forest and is related to my dragon race."

The man in black robes gazed at the golden spectacle in the sky, his gaze seemingly traversing countless times and falling upon the Sunset Forest. With a flicker in his eyes, he suddenly raised his right hand, making a grasping motion towards the sky to the north.

An extremely terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his body; with just this one grasping motion, it seemed as if he could tear the sky apart. The entire Star Dou Great Forest trembled slightly, and the sky itself twisted violently.

A black rift, hundreds of meters long, appeared in the air. The black void seemed to have endless suction, causing other powerful beings around to retreat in panic, fearing that they would be sucked in.

"Did it fail? Was it because the distance was too far? Or was it that the being that influences the fate of the soul beast was unwilling to accept my good intentions?"

The black-robed man's face was somewhat gloomy. Just as he was about to confirm the location before making another move, his face suddenly turned pale and his body trembled. Then he looked up at the sky again and said, "Well, that creature is not in immediate danger. I'll wait until I recover from my injuries before we act again."

Chapter 437 Dragon Name Jialin

"Boom..." Within the valley of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, the rumbling sound of thunder resounded through the heavens and earth. Terrifying bolts of lightning descended from the sky, striking Yan, the one struck by lightning, one after another. The lightning light instantly covered the valley.

The world seemed to be completely engulfed in a sea of ​​lightning, with terrifying sparks flashing and illuminating the scene as if the entire world was about to be destroyed.

Yan Feilin hovered above the endless valley, seemingly a black hole that completely devoured all energy. Strikes of lightning had no effect on him, and his aura grew increasingly powerful.

As the dazzling lightning gradually came to an end, Yan, who was floating in the air, suddenly trembled. The intense golden light expanded to its extreme in an instant, as if it wanted to devour the heavens and the earth.

The light faded, the lightning dissipated, and only Yan's figure remained as he slowly descended. A golden, malevolent aura gradually rose, revealing a golden skull, no bigger than a fist, silently hovering in front of Yan.

On Yan's forehead, the power of the Niwan Palace manifested, and a vertical mark appeared between his eyebrows. The Eye of Destiny, resembling a third eye, opened, and a beam of golden light shot out from the Eye of Destiny, landing precisely on the golden skull.

The golden skull instantly became transparent, as clear and translucent as golden crystal. It floated forward slowly, gradually shrinking as it flew, and finally flew to Yan's front, transforming into a golden ray of light, gently disappearing into the Eye of Destiny.

Yan's body suddenly trembled, and an indescribable terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his body. A huge golden pillar of light descended from the sky and struck him hard on the head.

In that instant, he felt everything go black before his eyes, and he immediately lost consciousness and control of his body.

After being struck by the golden light, his body trembled as he fell, golden lightning crackling around him.

His entire being began to change; his red hair gradually gained a layer of gold, turning into a strange dark gold.

A gigantic vertical eye appeared behind him. The eye itself was golden, but its pupil was black and white, flashing alternately, as if it were a tangible object.

At that moment, another beam of light descended from the sky and landed on him. This time, the light was crimson, like a pillar of fire.

Immediately afterwards, beams of light in orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple fell one after another, intertwining to form the light of a rainbow.

Every ray of light that fell upon Yan caused a slight change in his aura, and even his appearance seemed to change subtly. Originally, they were all Yan's fans, but they were mainly captivated by his talent and other aspects. Their looks were only so-so, but not particularly attractive.

But now, as they watched from afar, they felt that Yan seemed to possess an invisible charm, and they longed to get closer to him.

Especially those who are closest to him can recognize him at a glance; he has become handsome and has become more charming in a different way.

After the auspicious seven-colored light passed, a strange light shield appeared on Yan's body. This light shield was seven-colored and slowly lifted his body into the air, where he naturally sat down cross-legged.

Then the vertical eye transformed into streams of light, which began to continuously drill into the Eye of Destiny on his forehead.

The benefits that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, this divine beast of destiny, brought to Yan were immense, especially the sharing of the origin of destiny. It was almost equivalent to giving Yan a portion of its own innate authority and status, which greatly influenced Yan's subsequent path to becoming stronger.

"Splash..." The dramatic changes in the sky caused dark clouds to gather, and raindrops the size of soybeans fell rapidly. However, before they could reach Yan, the seven-colored light evaporated the rain into mist.

The spot where Yan stood transformed into a ball of light enveloped in mist. Yan had now landed on the ground, sitting back-to-back with the three-eyed golden lion, which was also surrounded by colorful light. Although both had their eyes closed, they exuded an inexplicable aura of solemnity and majesty.

Yan's originally fiery red hair gradually turned golden and continued to grow.

His skin had become much fairer than before, and his face had become softer and more delicate, giving him a completely different appearance.

Around the Eye of Destiny on his forehead, a ring of pale golden light, resembling a sun pattern, emerged. The light flickered, and within the Eye of Destiny, black and white colors flashed continuously, seemingly representing life and death.

Purple, black, red, and gold—four kinds of soul light flashed alternately on his body, and the soul power emanating from him continued to increase slowly.

The newborn Fire Dragon King was right beside Yan and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, also shrouded in a six-pointed star array, and formed a soul contract with Yan. She bestowed upon Yan a powerful 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone, and she herself also gained many benefits, at least at this moment the light of wisdom in her eyes was strong.

The little fire dragon king spontaneously stood beside the man and beast to protect them. Its massive dragon body absorbed the emanating seven-colored light, and its aura became increasingly deep and powerful.

As the new generation Fire Dragon King of the ancient true dragon lineage, her growth rate is extremely astonishing. After a soul beast forms a soul contract with a human, it also obtains a portion of the human's innate talent, which can help the soul beast grow faster.

The Fire Dragon King has gained immense benefits in this way. The celestial anomaly has attracted enormous energy, and even the power of destiny from the will of the plane. Absorbing only a portion of this special energy has greatly enhanced the Fire Dragon King's foundation.

As time passed, the seven-colored light on Yan's body gradually weakened, and the huge vertical eye phantom behind him gradually disappeared.
