Douluo Dalu: Tiger Roars in the Universe

Chapter 45 You Can't Escape Fate

The Soul-Breaking Spear was aimed at the back of the Holy Spirit Bi'an and stabbed down suddenly. The absolute defense shield on the Holy Spirit Bi'an's body had no effect on the Soul-Breaking Spear with added true damage. The Soul-Breaking Spear stabbed directly into the back of the Holy Spirit Bi'an and came out from the abdomen, nailing it to the ground.

As his body was pierced, the red light in the Holy Spirit Bi'an's eyes finally dimmed, and the red color that had been applied to Dai Yaochen's entire body also quickly faded away.

Nailed to the ground by the Soul-Breaking Spear, Holy Spirit Bi'an tried to struggle, but found that he had no strength left and coughed up a large pool of blood.

At this time, the Holy Spirit Bi'an had already understood something.

"Fate led me here, not to kill these humans, but to let these humans kill me?"

In the eyes of the Holy Spirit Bi'an, this is the only explanation.

Blessed by the power of destiny, it has always been able to avoid danger and seek good fortune. In its more than ten thousand years of life, it has never been threatened with death, let alone even injured.

But now, not only did it encounter an eight-ring human who just happened to restrain it, but even a three-ring kid could stop it. All these misfortunes could only mean that fate had abandoned it.

"So it is fate that wants me to die?" Thinking of this, the Holy Spirit Bi'an calmed down instead. It has been enjoying the protection of fate since its birth. Now that fate wants it to die, this seems to be a very normal thing.

On the other hand, after unleashing his first soul skill with all his strength through his Ring Fusion talent, Dai Yaochen lost a lot of soul power, which made him feel empty. When he calmed down a little, he saw that the strange tiger-shaped soul beast had been pinned down by Yang Wudi, so he relaxed and called Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan who were hiding behind to come here.

"This soul beast is really difficult to deal with." Looking at the Holy Spirit Bi'an that was nailed to the ground by him, Yang Wudi said, "If it weren't for my sixth soul skill that has the effect of real damage, I really wouldn't be able to do anything with it."

"There are all kinds of strange soul beasts in the world, with all kinds of abilities." Dai Yaochen said, "It's not surprising that this strange tiger has the ability of absolute defense. But who knew it was such a coincidence that it ran into Chief Yang who has the ability to cause real damage. Chief Yang restrained it instead. It can only be considered bad luck."

The protective light shield displayed by the tiger-shaped soul beast reminded Dai Yaochen of Xiao Wu's invincible golden body, which was said to be an absolute defense below the god level. Although it was powerful, it was not impossible to restrain it. When Bibi Dong was hunting Xiao Wu's mother, she used the Eternal Wound, which had the ability to cause real damage, to break the invincible golden body of absolute defense.

"Let's not talk about this for now." Yang Wudi looked at the Holy Spirit Bi'an, which was losing blood and whose breath was weakening, and said, "You come and kill this soul beast. It is that soul beast with the absolute defense shield, which is very difficult to deal with. Its real strength is not that strong. Its cultivation must be less than 20,000 years. I think you will have no problem absorbing its soul ring."

Dai Yaochen nodded and looked at the tiger-shaped soul beast that was nailed to the ground and was about to die, and met its eyes.

During the eye contact, Dai Yaochen could feel that this tiger-shaped soul beast did not hate him at all. Instead, its eyes seemed full of pity when it looked at him.

What does this mean? Dai Yaochen was a little confused. Logically, a soul beast killed by a soul master would be full of resentment before dying, but why was it so calm?

"Human boy, please kill me." At this moment, the weak voice of the Holy Spirit Bi'an sounded, "I choose to accept the death bestowed upon me by fate."

"But don't be too happy, human boy. You have been chosen by fate and you can't escape it. One day you will end up like me."

Hearing what the Holy Spirit Bi'an said, for some reason, all the hairs on Dai Yaochen's body stood up.

Light attribute, tiger type, this soul beast is extremely suitable for him. It should be difficult to find, but it came to his door like a takeout.

Moreover, this tiger-shaped soul beast clearly possessed such a powerful ability as absolute defense, and it happened to be restrained by Yang Wudi. Although there were some twists and turns during the battle, it was still very smooth overall. This smoothness made Dai Yaochen feel something was wrong, as if this tiger-shaped soul beast was deliberately coming to die.

But even though he felt something was wrong, facing such a top-grade soul beast that was perfect for him, Dai Yaochen did not give up. Instead, he took a deep breath and said, "Is it fate? Maybe."

At this time, Dai Yaochen did not say anything like "My destiny is in my own hands", he felt that this was too childish. Anyway, no matter what would happen in the future, he would face it.

At that moment, Dai Yaochen used his tiger claws to end the life of the Holy Spirit Bi'an before it bled to death.

"Fate... fate..." The pupils of Holy Spirit Bi'an gradually blurred, "No one can escape..."

Soon, the body of the Holy Spirit Bi'an became stiff, and at the same time, a circle of strange soul rings rose from its body.

The reason why this soul ring is strange is that although it is black, it seems to have some golden light on it. However, under the sunlight, the golden light is more like the refraction of sunlight. If you don’t look closely, it is not too obvious.

"Judging from the fluctuations of soul power emitted by this soul ring, it should be around 15,000 years old." Yang Wudi asked, "Can your body withstand it?"

"It should be possible." Dai Yaochen tilted his head and thought for a moment, indicating that he should be fine.

For some reason, after seeing this circle of soul rings, Dai Yaochen had a feeling that he would succeed in absorbing this soul ring.

Thinking of the three soul rings on Dai Yaochen's body that exceeded the limit, and the fact that he had eaten three immortal herbs, Yang Wudi felt that Dai Yaochen should be able to absorb it even if it exceeded the upper limit of the fourth soul ring's tolerance of 10,000 years.

So Yang Wudi didn't say anything else, but just signaled Dai Yaochen that he could start.

Dai Yaochen sat cross-legged and began to sense the black soul ring that was glowing with golden light. Called by Dai Yaochen, the black and gold soul ring soon floated above his head, dropping strands of black and gold light.

As these black and gold lights poured into his body, Dai Yaochen officially began to absorb his fourth soul ring.

Dai Yaochen felt that the energy contained in this circle of black and gold soul ring was indeed a lot, but it had not exceeded the limit that he could bear now. Moreover, for some reason, the tiger-shaped soul beast had no resentment before its death, so it did not interfere with Dai Yaochen's absorption of this soul ring. This allowed him to mobilize the soul power in his body in an orderly manner and refine the soul ring energy that continued to flow into his body.

In the outside world, watching Dai Yaochen's body being enveloped by the black and gold light of the soul ring, Yang Wudi and others were waiting on the side, and at the same time protecting Dai Yaochen to prevent a powerful soul beast from suddenly jumping out and disturbing his absorption of the soul ring.
