Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Sky

Chapter 316 Annihilating Ma Hongjun and Refining Phoenix Blood
The King of Slaughter is stirring.

His gaze fell upon Lin Xiao, who was fighting Ma Hongjun in the center of the arena.

at this time,

Lin Xiao used his powerful physique to deal with Ma Hongjun and constantly made sarcastic remarks, which made Ma Hongjun's mentality more and more explosive.

"Blood Phoenix? What a self-aggrandizing act. You've just willingly degenerated into a blood-sucking bat. You gave yourself the name Blood Phoenix, didn't you?"

"Drinking blood to gain power... Foolish! This kind of mixed and filthy power is no different from garbage. Everyone else is refining their own soul power and picking up mud to grow lotus flowers, but you are picking up poop to make egg tarts!"

"Haven't you realized your mistake yet? Don't think that just because you're a Soul Saint now, I can beat you up even if you were a Soul Douluo. If we were at the same level, your bloodline alone would make you kneel down and unable to stand up."

Lin Xiao's words cut into Ma Hongjun like knives, making him increasingly vulnerable. His already chaotic attacks became even more disorganized, and he was burned by the Phoenix Fire, a truly pitiful sight.

Just as Ma Hongjun was suffering repeated defeats and was about to be killed by Lin Xiao.

A chilling killing intent suddenly enveloped Lin Xiao, as the King of Slaughter, wielding the Asura Divine Sword, swung it down at Lin Xiao with overwhelming ferocity!

Lin Xiao definitely couldn't withstand this attack!
After all, this is Tang Chen, a Limit Douluo, wielding the Asura Divine Sword and going all out.

But Lin Xiao seemed to have been prepared.

In fact, we've been waiting for this moment for a very long time!
"Great Sun Golden Eyes!"

"Black Sun Purifying Fire, Reverse!"

Ma Hongjun, who was just locked in combat with Lin Xiao, was kicked away by Lin Xiao and seriously injured amidst the deafening explosion.

In Lin Xiao's eyes, the sun rose high, its golden flames dazzling. Combined with the soul impact of the million-year-old head bone of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, the target was directly aimed at Tang Chen... the blood-red nine-headed bat king in his heart!

In addition, the Black Sun Purifying Fire was applied to Tang Chen.

The Black Sun Fire can purify all desires and emotions, and even cause memory loss! Conversely, its reverse application can enhance one's emotions and recall past memories.

The price, however, is the need to burn one's soul.

"Hey..."

"what!!!"

A piercing, sharp crackling sound, like the cry of an infant, rang out simultaneously with the man's agonizing screams of excruciating pain.

One comes from the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, and the other comes from Tang Chen!
Not the King of Slaughter, but Tang Chen!

Even before the massacre, Lin Xiao knew he would inevitably face the King of Slaughter. Knowing he would be facing a powerhouse at the Limit Douluo level, Lin Xiao still dared to be high-profile.

It was because they had found the King of Slaughter's weakness!

The King of Slaughter is neither Tang Chen nor the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King.

Instead, it is a combination of Tang Chen after his fall from grace and the parasitism of the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King!
If the opponent were Tang Chen, Lin Xiao would be finished with a single hammer or sword strike. However, the strength of the King of Slaughter would be weakened, and the blood-red nine-headed bat king parasitizing his body would not be particularly strong!
This is all thanks to the blood-red bat that appeared in the Hell Slaughter Arena, which allowed Lin Xiao to figure out the details of the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King and confirm that he could defeat it!
"Due to the limitations of my own spiritual power, even with the million-year-old head soul bone of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and the Great Sun Golden Eye, it would be difficult for me to seriously injure Tang Chen, the strongest person in the world today."

"But I don't need to confront Tang Chen directly. I only need to severely injure the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King! With the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King's spirit severely damaged, its suppression of Tang Chen will inevitably decrease."

"The balance has been broken!"

"Then, I used the reversed Black Sun Purifying Flame to help Tang Chen's true self recall past memories and emotions, leaving the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King preoccupied with its own problems!"

Lin Xiao reviewed his own plans.

While there is certainly an element of gambling involved, Lin Xiao still has his last trump card: Maple Leaf.

Maple leaves are capable of annihilating the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King.

However, it was a high-risk act for Maple Leaf to take action in the Killing City, but fortunately, she didn't end up getting into trouble.

The King of Slaughter's crimson cloak was torn to shreds, and his pale face was contorted with extreme pain. Tang Chen's gaze could be clearly seen shifting between clarity and confusion.

Clearly, Tang Chen and the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King are vying for control of the body!

In his previous attempt to succeed, Lin Xiao had nearly exhausted his mental energy. Now, feeling a sharp pain in his brain, he was powerless to help Tang Chen defeat the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, even though he wanted to. Without hesitation, Lin Xiao strode towards Ma Hongjun.

With his bloodline suppressed, Ma Hongjun couldn't even unleash half of his full strength, let alone Lin Xiao's flames, which were practically his nemesis after his fall from grace.
The Great Sun Golden Flame has the strongest restraining effect on Ma Hongjun.

The previous black phoenix fire was merely creating an opportunity for the King of Slaughter, and also for Lin Xiao to launch a surprise attack.

just now.

What Lin Xiao needs to do is…

Kill Ma Hongjun!
Tang Chen's mind had been corrupted for too long, and it could be said to be riddled with holes. Even though Lin Xiao had severely injured the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, it was still difficult for him to successfully seize control.

Lin Xiao was unable to launch a second mental attack.

However, he had other ways to help Tang Chen.

He remembered very clearly that there was also a blood-red bat inside Ma Hongjun's body, which was probably the offspring or clone of the blood-red nine-headed bat king.

If it is killed, the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King will surely suffer another severe blow.

Lin Xiao looked at Ma Hongjun, whose eyes were filled with resentment, in the deep pit.

His expression remained normal, and his steps were steady.

"Lin Xiao, use fire!"

Suddenly, the sound of maple leaves echoed in my mind.

"Use the ultimate Phoenix Fire, not any other flames. That way, we might be able to purify and obtain a trace of the Phoenix bloodline!"

Lin Xiao hadn't contacted Feng Ye for a long time, and upon suddenly hearing her voice, he was both surprised and worried.

"Maple Leaf, you won't be found out, will you?"

"It's alright. I'm hiding deep within your consciousness. As long as you don't space out and I don't show myself, no one will notice anything amiss."

Maple Leaf said with a hint of disappointment:

"This fatso has managed to corrupt his phoenix bloodline to this extent; he's quite a talent. But regardless, his initial trace of phoenix bloodline hasn't been completely corrupted yet. Absorbing it will be beneficial for you. Once you reach level 70, your phoenix true form will be ridiculously strong!"

Urged on by the maple leaves, Lin Xiao dispersed the Great Sun Golden Flame from his palm.

On her fair palm, crimson phoenix flames swirled, transforming into a small phoenix.

He extended his palm, and the tiny phoenix flew toward Ma Hongjun, instantly engulfed in flames.

Amidst screams, countless blood-red and black impurities were burned out.

During this process, Ma Hongjun's eyes were filled with resentment, and he uttered vicious curses.

"Lin Xiao! I'll be waiting for you underground!"

"Lin Xiao! I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"

"..."

Then Ma Hongjun's voice grew weaker and weaker, but his eyes gradually cleared.

"Brother Xiao."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao's expression faltered slightly.

The eyes are complicated.

But the refining process did not stop...
