Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao, Allows Me to Defy Fate

Even if he uses every means at his disposal, even if he takes into account the power of divine retribution and elemental absorption, his limit is only to defeat a Soul Saint.

It would be very difficult to win against a Soul Saint who possesses the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda for amplification, or someone like Tang Hao who has top-tier martial souls and secret techniques.

Chapter 315 Frenzied Devouring, Hunting Soul Beasts

With the current amplification from the fifth spirit ring.

Breaking through level 60 is not difficult.

However, if he only absorbs a regular ten-thousand-year soul ring, the increase in strength will be linear, and it may not even be enough for him to reliably defeat a Soul Douluo.

Unless... a qualitative change occurs.

Yu Xiaoheng looked down at his palm, where a golden pattern was faintly visible.

That was a gift left by our ancestors.

The origin of the Golden Holy Dragon.

If at level 60, one could forcibly absorb that 100,000-year soul ring that should only be absorbed at a higher level...

The sixth spirit ring takes 100,000 years.

This was unprecedented in the history of Douluo Continent.

The two soul skills brought by the 100,000-year soul ring, along with the terrifying attribute boost, are enough to give him the ability to contend with a Soul Douluo at the Soul Emperor level, and even threaten a Title Douluo under certain conditions.

That was the only way to break the deadlock.

But this requires a physical body capable of bearing that terrifying energy.

My current physical strength is far from sufficient.

With his current physical body, trying to force a 100,000-year soul ring is nothing short of a pipe dream.

The physical body must be strengthened.

The best way is to forge new elemental patterns and use elemental tempering to forcibly push the limits of one's physical strength.

There are two ready-made candidates right in front of us.

The Shui sisters possess extremely high-quality ice-attribute soul power. If one could use their help to draw in the ultimate ice and condense "ice patterns" within the body, the strength of one's physical body would definitely increase dramatically.

But here is the problem.

The two sisters are now consumed by revenge. They are polite to this "nameless" man, but they always keep a barrier between them, as if he were a stranger.

The only way to break down this barrier and get them to willingly cooperate with my cultivation is to reveal their identities.

Just tell them that I am Yu Xiaoheng and that I am not dead.

Let alone cooperating in cultivation, even if you asked them to hand over their lives, these two silly girls probably wouldn't even blink.

But a new problem arose.

Why is he in such a hurry to melt the ice patterns?

It is to acquire a stronger physique.

Why do we need a stronger physique?

It was to absorb the 100,000-year soul ring ahead of time.

Why absorb a 100,000-year-old soul ring?

It's to gain power and reveal one's identity...

Yu Xiaoheng rubbed his temples and his lips twitched slightly.

That's where things got stuck.

Just as he was pondering a way to break the deadlock, a strange fluctuation suddenly came from within his body.

A chilling aura was silently flowing through his meridians.

Yu Xiaoheng was slightly taken aback.

That was the power of divine retribution.

This power originates from the corruption of the Rainbow Dragon and the harmony of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire; it should have been chaotic and disordered.

In pursuit of lethality and deterrence, he has been activating the violent and high-temperature aspect of the power of divine punishment, which represents the characteristic of "fire".

Due to the properties of ice, it cannot be used for the time being.

Everything in excess is as bad as deficiency; yin alone cannot produce life, and yang alone cannot grow.

Since the body has been constantly releasing "heat," the extreme cold that represents "cold" has accumulated within the body.

Because his body had been reforged by the Dragon King's essence, its capacity to absorb energy was frighteningly high. The accumulated icy power did not harm him; instead, it was like a dam that was accumulating water, with the water level rising higher and higher.

No discomfort.

There's even a sense of exhilarating power.

Yu Xiaoheng clenched his fist, and instead of flames, a wisp of white mist that could freeze the air seeped out from between his fingers.

If he were to unleash this long-suppressed "Heavenly Punishment Ice," its power would likely be several times more terrifying than his regular fire attacks.

Moreover, as he continues to fight and use fire, this icy power will continue to accumulate.

Like a fully drawn bow, the tighter it is stretched, the more powerful the arrow will be.

Since that's the case, there's no need to rush to ask the Shui sisters for help right now.

Having an extra card might not be bad.

Yu Xiaoheng stood up, dusted himself off, and walked toward the three women who were talking in hushed tones not far away.

Bibi Dong was wiping a short blade when she saw Yu Xiaoheng coming over. With a flick of her wrist, she sheathed the blade.

"We'll rest here for the night, and tomorrow morning we'll intercept the Haotian Sect's supply line."

Bibi Dong's voice was flat; it didn't sound like she was discussing something, but rather like she was issuing a notification.

Shui Yun'er and Shui Lingxi also raised their heads, their eyes flashing with a fierce light as if they were eager to try.

They couldn't wait to see blood.

"No."

Yu Xiaoheng refused outright, decisively and cleanly.

Bibi Dong frowned slightly, a dangerous glint flashing in her eyes. "A reason."

"The Haotian Sect is not stupid."

Near Sunset Forest, the night was as dark as ink.

The campfire had long since died out, leaving only ashes with lingering warmth.

Yu Xiaoheng stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze piercing through the layers of tree shadows, looking in the direction where the three figures had disappeared.

It's the silhouette of Bibi Dong and the Shui sisters as they leave.

In the end, they did take one sentence to heart.

The Clear Sky Sect is not a lamb to the slaughter, especially when Tang San is the variable.

The boy, who possessed the wisdom of an adult, knew of the existence of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, so how could he not understand the importance of this place for herbal resources?

Tang Hao may be arrogant, but Tang San is definitely not stupid.

A tight net has already been laid there, and there may even be powerful experts at the level of Contra Douluo stationed there.

Forcing our way in will only lead to our death.

Rather than going to their deaths now, they should break the backbone of the Clear Sky Sect in front of the whole world at the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.

This is the greatest humiliation for Tang Hao and the heaviest blow to the prestige of the Haotian Sect.

Bibi Dong is a smart person; smart people always know how to weigh the pros and cons.

Although the killing intent in her eyes had not diminished in the slightest, she still led the Shui sisters to temporarily retreat, agreeing to meet again here on the eve of the Soul Master Competition.

The wind rustled through the treetops.

A rustling sound came from inside.

Yu Xiaoheng withdrew his gaze and turned around.

There are still about two weeks until the Soul Master Competition.

This is enough time to get a lot done.

For example, in this dog-eat-dog world, be a pure and virtuous person.

He remembered that in the original course of his destiny, Tang San had once stirred up a bloody storm and frantically hunted for spirit rings in order to revive his lover and restore his spirit rings.

It was for love, it was for justice.

I, Yu Xiaoheng, can certainly do it too!

……

Edge of the core area of ​​Sunset Forest.

boom--!

A deafening roar shook the mountains and forests. Trees within a radius of hundreds of meters were snapped in half by a violent shockwave, the breaks jagged and uneven, as if they had been torn apart by a blunt instrument.

Amidst billowing smoke and dust, a colossal beast over fifteen meters long roared in agony.

That was a 28,000-year-old Riftwind Demon Tiger.

Its body is bluish-black, with two wings on its back. Every time it swings its claws, it can create several visible wind blades that can easily cut through rocks.

But at this moment, the forest overlord was filled with fear.

Yu Xiaoheng quietly extended his right hand.

Fifth Soul Skill - Element Absorption.
