Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 337 Ling Luochen VS. The Ghoul Douluo: The Elegance of Controlling Soul Masters

With less than ten days left until the next competition, the Guigu Sect members prepared to set off.

Although this is the first time the name of Guigu has been revealed to the world, it is a sect of the Heavenly Soul Empire that has been personally approved by the Heavenly Soul Emperor, so it is naturally qualified to participate in the competition.

However, there is still one battle to be fought before setting off.

That means we need to deal with the Corpse-Eating Douluo. The restrictions on this guy are impossible to break; they've already connected to his soul. Electrolux is still asleep, so we can't get any information from him. Moreover, Yuwen Tuo already knows what he wants to know.

Since that's the case, he obviously has no value in staying. Under Yuwentuo's command, any evil soul master only has one path: death.

However, while it may seem worthless, it actually has one last useful feature.

Therefore, Yuwen Tuo deliberately healed his injuries during this period, and restored his soul power to its peak state.

"Ghoul Douluo, you can leave now!" Yuwen Tuo said, looking at the disgusting guy in front of him.

"What? You're really willing to let me go?" The Corpse Douluo asked in disbelief. Although his injuries had healed and his power had reached its peak, he still dared not be presumptuous in front of Yuwen Tuo, not to mention that this was the main base of the Body Sect, where the poison could crush him with a single finger.

Yuwen Tuo gave him a threatening look, "If you don't want to leave, you can try my Flame Emperor Domain!"

"No, no, no, thank you for your mercy, sir. I will definitely reform myself in the future. Farewell, farewell," the Corpse-Eating Douluo quickly said.

After saying that, he left the Body Sect without looking back. He had figured it out. If Yuwen Tuo really wanted to kill him, he could have done it with a flick of his finger earlier. Why go through all this trouble?

Since the other party was willing to let him go, he had to seize every opportunity to escape.

At this moment, the Corpse-Eating Douluo perfectly demonstrated the speed of an agile attack-type Title Douluo. Once he left the Body Sect, he ran wildly into the distance without looking back, as if afraid that Yuwen Tuo might suddenly change his mind.

After running for dozens of miles, he finally couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Hahahaha, I'm so lucky! I never thought I'd still be alive. Yuwen Tuo, you just wait, one day I'll turn you into a corpse and then swallow you piece by piece."

"Unfortunately, you don't have that chance!" Just then, accompanied by a cold voice, a terrifying chill came from the forest. The Corpse Douluo was caught off guard and found that his ankles had been frozen.

The ice was so strong that it couldn't easily break free. It only managed to shatter the tiny bit of ice on its feet after releasing nine soul rings.

But the problem is that an increasingly strong chill is constantly emanating from the forest, as if it's trying to freeze everything.

"Damn it, who are you?" the Corpse-Eating Douluo asked.

"Ghost Valley, Ling Luochen!" Ling Luochen's beautiful figure slowly emerged from the wind and snow, surrounded by seven soul rings: two yellow, two purple, two black, and one red.

Yes, Ling Luochen did not join the Body Sect, nor did she join the Heavenly Soul Sect. She said that she would only be with Yuwen Tuo in the future, so she was naturally a disciple of Ghost Valley.

"Ghoul Douluo, the Body Sect spared you, but that doesn't mean my Ghost Valley will let you go. I, Ling Luochen, will execute you on the spot today!" Ling Luochen's voice was chilling, enough to freeze even the clouds.

After consuming the supreme ice-attribute immortal herb and absorbing the soul ring and soul bone of the Eight-Cornered Profound Ice Grass, Ling Luochen's ice has completely evolved into the ultimate ice.

Not only that, Yuwentuo also obtained the Ice Jade Scorpion left arm bone from Senior Sister Vina for her.

Only Ling Luochen, who possesses the ultimate ice, is suitable to absorb this soul bone.

Ling Luochen has now reached level 78 and possesses two 100,000-year soul bones, plus an Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone whose power is comparable to that of a 100,000-year-old one.

Now, she is capable of fighting a level 91 Title Douluo like the Corpse-Eating Douluo one-on-one, and has a high chance of winning. In this way, she can complete her second trial as the Water God.

"What Ghost Valley? I've never even heard of it. I escaped from a place like the Body Sect. What is Ghost Valley? So what if a mere Soul Saint has a 100,000-year Soul Ring? Perfect timing. It's been a long time since I've tasted the corpse of a peerless beauty like you. Today, I'll give you a good taste." The Corpse-Eating Douluo licked his lips with his jet-black tongue.

Unlike other men who lust after Ling Luochen's body, he genuinely "craved" her body, in a physical sense.

"First Soul Skill, Corpse Eater!" The Corpse Eater Douluo pulled out a human arm from somewhere and swallowed it whole, bones and all, in a few bites.

This soul skill can increase the user's attack and defense based on the amount of flesh and blood consumed. In an instant, the Corpse-Eating Douluo's eyes turned bloodshot, and he charged towards Ling Luochen as if he had gone mad.

His entire figure transformed into a shadow.

"First Soul Skill, Ice Staff! Extreme Ice Domain!" Ling Luochen conjured an ice staff in his hand and casually tapped it on the ground. Instantly, an ice magic circle spread out from beneath his feet in a circular pattern.

The temperature in the area surrounded by the magic array suddenly dropped to below minus fifty degrees Celsius, and the ghoul douluo's wild speed noticeably slowed down.

"What? That ice is terrifying!" The Ghoul Douluo subconsciously exhaled a breath of cold air. Control-type Soul Masters were already a counter to his agility-based attacks, let alone a powerful being with such extreme ice attributes. "Seventh Soul Skill, Ghoul True Form!"

When the Ghoul Douluo activated his true form, his entire body suddenly grew larger, becoming an enormous ghoul, like a rotting walking corpse. As drops of slime fell from his body, they instantly corroded the ground, making him look extremely disgusting.

"Die!" The ghoul's enormous claws reached out to grab Ling Luochen.

Second Soul Skill: Ice Armor Protection

A massive layer of ice armor materialized directly in front of Luo Chen, and the ghoul's claws struck the ice armor, yet failed to break through its defenses in one blow.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Ice Emperor True Form!"

After blocking the attack, Ling Luochen's true form was activated. Yuwen Tuo's true form was named the Flame Emperor True Form, so she named her own true form the Ice Emperor. However, her "Emperor" was in the form of an empress.

A gigantic phantom of an Ice Queen appeared behind Ling Luochen, also wielding an ice staff.

At the same time, the phantom's right leg and torso both emitted light.

"Eight-Cornered Ice Grass Soul Bone Skill: Ultimate Ice Amplification; Snow Lotus Soul Bone Skill: Endless Ice Amplification!"

Ling Luochen's two 100,000-year-old soul bones coincidentally possess very similar skills, both amplifying ice attributes and complementing each other.

One move can amplify one's ice attribute to the maximum limit that one can currently withstand, and another move can expand that limit.

At this moment, Ling Luochen's Extreme Ice Domain, enhanced by the three skills of Martial Soul True Body, Limit Ice Amplification, and Endless Ice Amplification, had reached a temperature below minus two hundred degrees Celsius. Although it was still some distance from the legendary absolute zero due to his cultivation level, it was still something that a ghoul could not withstand.

The ghoul Douluo's enormous ghoul form had been turned into an ice sculpture. Even a titled Douluo would find it difficult to resist such cold ice; one would need at least the soul power of a Super Douluo.

"Sixth Soul Skill, Roar of Ice!" Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ling Luochen manipulated the wind and snow, creating countless huge ice balls in the sky, which slammed down on the ghoul ice sculpture.

The Corpse-Eating Douluo's eyes were filled with fear, but he was helpless until the ice ball smashed his body into pieces.

But he did not die; his stomach still contained a corpse to replace him.

As you can see, his scattered limbs are gradually coming together.

Little did she know, Ling Luochen had been waiting for this moment. Her left arm emitted an icy blue light as she pointed at the Ghoul Douluo and said, "The final blow, Ice Explosion!"

The Ice Jade Scorpion clan's strongest attack is actually a skill similar to Corpse Explosion. It requires the target's body to be completely frozen, filled with ice. Under the influence of the Ice Explosion technique, the target's own energy reacts with the ice within their body, creating a special reaction that can be controlled and detonated at any time. The stronger the target, the greater the explosive power.

At this moment, the corpses used by the ghouls to take their place become the perfect vessel for the explosion. When the ice gathers on them, the explosion is so beautiful that it's like a work of art.

"No, I don't want to die!!!" The ghoul's wails echoed through the mountains and forests, but unfortunately, no one would sympathize with a creature like him.

In the blink of an eye, a huge iceberg suddenly appeared in the dense forest. This time, the ghoul's corpse was not broken into pieces, but powdered, covering the entire iceberg.

Ling Luochen withdrew her true form and staff. Throughout the entire battle, she hadn't moved an inch, showcasing the elegance and composure of a control-type Soul Master to the fullest.

"Ling Luochen, you have passed the second test of the Water God. You are rewarded with 5% Water God affinity, now it is 10%!"
