Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Sky

Chapter 411 Poseidon... The Spirit of the Sea

A damp, salty sea breeze hits your face.

Tang Chen was so thin and emaciated that he was almost unrecognizable. His own essence and blood had been almost completely drained, and the blood pool stored in his storage soul tool had also dried up.

Even the outline of the blood-red nine-headed bat king at the heart location had shrunk by a size.

He was already at his wit's end!
But at least we made it to the beach.

There is only one glimmer of hope here.

Tang Chen looked at Lin Xiao, a look of fear flashing in his eyes.

This young man is even more self-controlled than Qian Daoliu! He is extremely cautious, like a hunter with super patience, leaving himself no chance to fight back.

The phoenix, a divine bird circling in the sky, fell to the ground and transformed into a handsome young man.

Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly.

"You risked your life to escape, repeatedly burning your lifeblood and exhausting yourself until you were completely drained, just to get to the seaside? Did you really expect Poseidon to save you?!"

Tang Chen's voice was dry and hoarse.

"Lin Xiao, I have a long-standing friendship with Poseidon. She might very well take action. If she does, the power of a peak Limit Douluo is something you can't possibly contend with."

"It's better for both of us to stop here."

Lin Xiao thought Tang Chen was really naive. Perhaps he was too eager to live, which is why he had such unrealistic expectations.

Lin Xiao stretched out his palm, and a wisp of golden sun flame swirled in his palm.

Among the various fires controlled by Lin Xiao.

The Great Sun Golden Flame is the most domineering fire, the extreme of the five elements, and the fire among fires.

Therefore, it is extremely effective against anything of evil or yin nature, and this fire is what Tang Chen and the crimson nine-headed bat king within him fear most.

In addition, the phoenix's bloodline suppression and divine attributes are also the nemesis of the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King.

Seeing Lin Xiao unleash this fire.

Tang Chen's eyes were filled with both fear and resentment.

"Lin Xiao! Are you really going to push things to the extreme?!"

Lin Xiao didn't know if Poseidon had come nearby, or if she was hiding in the shadows watching. He paused, carefully choosing his words, and then shouted sternly:

"The corrupt ones have wreaked havoc on the continent and poisoned countless lives; they deserve to die!"

"If I let you go today, that would be a grave sin!"

"Tang Chen, you don't need to be delusional and think that Poseidon will save you. I've always heard that Poseidon is the High Priestess of Poseidon Island, who protects all marine life, is kind and benevolent, and can distinguish right from wrong!"

"If she were here, she would personally beat you to death!"

Whether it is useful or not.

Lin Xiao channeled his soul power, projecting his voice far and wide. After asserting his political correctness, he didn't waste any more words and immediately took action.

"Fourth Soul Skill - Blazing Feather Sky-Burning Strike!"

To avoid being cornered and resorting to desperate measures, Lin Xiao will not get close to Tang Chen unless absolutely necessary.

Nine golden feathers imbued with the golden flames of the great sun emanated from behind him, radiating intense heat. Like javelins of a war god, they shot towards Tang Chen with a deafening roar.

Tang Chen's expression changed drastically. In his current state, there was absolutely no way he could withstand this attack containing the Great Sun Golden Flame!

"infant!"

A piercing, sharp cry rang out.

Suddenly, blood mist exploded from Tang Chen's body, and his dying body once again unleashed astonishing power as he fled towards the distant fishing village.

The blood-red nine-headed bat king on his chest shrank again.

Tang Chen has been drained of all her blood.

The blood essence of the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King is also about to be exhausted.

He must drink fresh blood immediately!
Lin Xiao chased after him again.

……

A small fishing village.

The strong young men returning from fishing wore joyful smiles as they worked together to pull the catch from their nets, singing local folk songs. They were robust and full of energy.

Women and children came out in surprise to greet their husbands, but one child suddenly started crying loudly, looking in a certain direction with fear in his eyes.

Everyone followed his gaze.

A hideous old man, emaciated and resembling a demon, dressed in black robes and surrounded by a mist of blood, was rushing toward them with his fangs wide open.

Everyone was terrified. Even the strong young men were quite frightened.

Lin Xiao was chasing after him.

He knew perfectly well that there were no Soul Masters in this small fishing village, and even if he drained all the blood from the villagers, Tang Chen's replenishment would not be enough to meet their needs.

All I need to do is maintain my distance and attack from a distance to kill him without any risk.

But Lin Xiao finally sighed.

He still decided to save the person.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Phoenix Soars Through the Nine Heavens!"

With his speed soaring to the extreme and carrying the power of space, Lin Xiao appeared in front of Tang Chen in the blink of an eye.

Tang Chen chuckled strangely, as if he had expected this.

The remaining eight spirit rings on his body lit up.

He disregarded the danger of his body exploding and dying, determined to forcefully perform the exploding ring technique. Even if he died, he wouldn't lose out by taking Lin Xiao down with him.

If you survive... it's an absolute steal!
Lin Xiao had been prepared to take the risks the moment she made her choice, and so she told Maple Leaf in her mind:

"Maple Leaf, if we join forces, we'll only suffer minor injuries..."

It possesses the blood pact of the phoenix and the ability to be reborn from the ashes like a maple leaf.

In addition, there's Lin Xiao's elemental transformation ability.

He would find it difficult to die even if he wanted to.

But physical pain is unavoidable.

This is the time.

Lin Xiao seemed to hear a sigh.

It is an extremely ethereal and gentle female voice.

Immediately afterwards, a gentle yet extremely powerful soul force swept over, forcibly interrupting Tang Chen's attempt to detonate his ring. He was also forced to lie prostrate on the ground, unable to move.

A sea breeze suddenly arose.

The waves surged, and a white-haired woman dressed in a priest's robe stood atop one of them.

Lin Xiao turned around, a look of amazement flashing in her eyes.

The woman appeared to be around twenty years old, with skin as white as the purest pearl at the bottom of the sea, a figure as graceful as ocean waves, and an immaculate and otherworldly temperament.

It gives the feeling of being a sea spirit.

This is... Poseidon!

A hint of sadness rose in Poseidon's eyes.

Her gaze didn't immediately fall on Tang Chen, but instead landed on Lin Xiao. She parted her soft lips slightly and said, "Young man, you are quite remarkable."

"I'm sorry, I've been watching silently all along and didn't offer any help immediately."

Lin Xiao immediately felt confident upon hearing this.

He smiled shyly, unsure whether to call her Grandma or Sister.

He simply addressed her as:

"Meet the high priest."

Fear rose in Tang Chen's eyes. When he faced Poseidon in this manner, the momentary shame even overwhelmed the will of the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, and he wished he could cut off his own neck.

Poseidon looked at Tang Chen quietly.

Tang Chen's decaying, aged skin reeked of rot and filth, and its wrinkles and age spots accentuated his ugliness.

His body was emaciated, skin and bones, like a demon that had just crawled out of hell.

The blood-red nine-headed bat king in the chest cavity rose and fell erratically.

The hideous monster merged with Tang Chen.

Ultimately, this resulted in Tang Chen, who was even uglier than a monster.

Ugh……

A sigh that was barely audible.

And the disappointment in those gentle, beautiful eyes.

Even more terrifying to Tang Chen than Lin Xiao's Great Sun Golden Flame, it made him feel like he was living a life worse than death...
