Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 496 Long Xiaoyao's self-destruction and the soul bone containing the power of destiny

"What's the point of dying together with me?" Yuwen Tuo asked. He had never imagined that the Dragon Emperor Douluo, Long Xiaoyao, had such a side to him. It really didn't match his name.

Neither his life nor his final death was carefree.

"How could someone as cold-blooded and ruthless as you understand? It's all for the sake of love. Yuwen Tuo, your heart is full of hatred, and you act without any mercy. You exterminate evil spirit masters as soon as you encounter them, completely disregarding their reasons for becoming evil spirit masters. You will only cause a greater disaster than the evil spirit masters themselves. I will not allow you to destroy this continent that Mu En protected with his whole life. And Xi Shui, I will protect my wife as well!" Long Xiaoyao said righteously, while gathering all his soul power and carrying Yuwen Tuo, rushing into the universe.

"Tuo!!!" Qiu'er was extremely anxious. She wanted to fly, but found that she couldn't muster any soul power at all. She couldn't even send soul power into the Reverse Scale in her hand to summon Di Tian.

Fortunately, she couldn't do it, otherwise, once Di Tian appeared, Yuwen Tuo's divine test would have been judged as a failure. Qiu'er was just worried and confused. Now her fate is intertwined with Yuwen Tuo's. If Yuwen Tuo were really in danger, the power of fate would have warned her long ago. How could there still be no movement until now?

In reality, although Yuwentuo could not break free from Long Xiaoyao's Dark Lament, this move did not pose much of a threat to him.

"I can't let him die!" Ye Xishui had just confessed her feelings to Long Xiaoyao, how could she just watch him die like this?

"Xi Shui, fulfill your promise. I am your husband. You must listen to me and live well—" Long Xiaoyao's voice grew softer and softer as it rose into the sky.

"Tuo Tuo!!!"

"Xiao Tuo————"

Xiao Xiao and Ling Luochen's brows twitched immediately, and they subconsciously looked back. They saw a meteor streaking across the sky at supersonic speed from the Mingdou Mountains.

"Those two soul energies, could they be Yuwen Tuo and Long Xiaoyao!" Shattered Star Douluo exclaimed. He had seen both of them before and could sense their soul energy fluctuations.

Dai Hao murmured, "Could those two have died together?"

In this situation, he could only make this one guess.

"No, no, my Tuotuo will be alright." Xiao Xiao immediately took flight and quickly flew back towards the Mingdou Mountains.

Seeing this, Ling Luochen followed without saying a word.

Ye Xishui gritted her teeth, looking at Long Xiaoyao who had sacrificed his life to buy her a chance to live. She sensed that two more experts were approaching. She couldn't let her husband's sacrifice be in vain. With the last bit of physical strength and soul power she had left, she used the Blood Transformation Technique, and her body turned into a pool of blood and disappeared.

Qiu'er wanted to chase after her, but she knelt down as soon as she took a step. The fusion of the rings had exhausted her strength. Although she was not injured, she was actually at her limit.

boom------

Just as Ye Xishui left, a deafening explosion resounded in the sky. Long Xiaoyao had self-destructed, and in an instant, the sky within a hundred miles was shrouded in darkness by his powerful dark energy, plunging the entire world into darkness.

Right in the very center of that darkness, Yuwen Tuo stood quietly, surrounded by six soul bones, and shook his head, saying, "Long Xiaoyao, you are truly foolish. How could self-destruction possibly work on me?"

The dark space that the old guy conjured at the last moment was indeed powerful, completely sealing off his divine fire clone's ability to teleport and transform into fire elements.

But he couldn't seal Yuwen Tuo's Xuanyuan Sword Soul.

Don't forget, the fourth soul skill of the Xuanyuan Sword Soul is also called Soul Sacrifice, a powerful move that can annihilate any attack.

Long Xiaoyao's self-destruction started from the head of the Dark Holy Dragon, followed by the dragon's body and tail, a total of three explosions. Any one of these explosions had the power to kill a Limit Douluo, but Yuwentuo used all three of his soul-sacrificing opportunities to neutralize them all.

However, Long Xiaoyao at least bought him a lot of time. Ye Xishui has probably already escaped by dissolving her blood. Even if a Limit Douluo wants to hide, it will be difficult for him to find her.

Fortunately, I had asked the God of Fire beforehand, and Long Xiaoyao was also within the scope of the assessment. The eighth test of the God of Fire's nine trials only required eliminating one evil soul master, the Limit Douluo. The original target, Ye Xishui, became Long Xiaoyao. In the end, the result was not bad. The most crucial part of the eighth test has now been completed.

Actually, he originally thought that the old guy was really taking him into the universe, which would have been quite troublesome. It turned out that he was just taking him to activate the Dark Holy Dragon's origin, causing the two soul cores to collide at their limits, and then relying on self-destruction to unleash power several times greater than that of a Limit Douluo. "Phew, little brother Tuo, you really scared your sister to death just now. I thought we were really going to be finished," Xue Di said with lingering fear.

“It’s not that serious. If I really couldn’t break free just now, I would have summoned you, Sister Ice Emperor, and Elder Yi. Although his Dark Lament is powerful, it definitely can’t stop the four of us from breaking through together. However, in that case, my divine test would not be considered complete,” Yuwen Tuo said.

No matter the situation, his priority is always life.

He cherishes his life very much. After all, he still has many things to accomplish, and now his life doesn't just belong to himself, but also to Hyotei, Yukitei, and Electrolux. They all place all their hopes on him, so how can he let himself die so easily?

Hyotei said, "You're quite clever, kid, you even had a backup plan. You'd better be more careful next time, you know?"

Yuwen Tuo immediately replied, "Yes, Sister Bingdi."

Although he summoned the Snow Empress the most here, he respected the Ice Empress the most, since the Ice Empress was the source of his unsealing of fortune.

He was able to win over the Snow Empress thanks to the Ice Empress's persuasion; it's fair to say that without the Ice Empress, he wouldn't be who he is today.

"Alright, it's good that you're alright. Xiao Tuo, Long Xiaoyao dropped six soul bones, one of which is very special, containing a rich power of destiny—that's the skull," Electrox reminded him.

Among Long Xiaoyao's six soul bones, two are of the 100,000-year level: his skull and left arm bone.

The left arm bone was blood red, containing a violent energy, which should have come from some kind of power-type dragon-type soul beast.

The skull is very peculiar; its color is like that of a stone, and its shape is quite ugly, but it is engraved with strings of characters that look like symbols.

Ice Emperor exclaimed in surprise, "Could this be the skull of the Prophecy Ancient Dragon? This kind of soul beast is still alive! Long Xiaoyao is so lucky to have encountered such a soul beast that should have been extinct and even hunted it down."

The character 谶 (chen) means omen or omens.

The Prophecy Dragon's body is made of basalt engraved with prophecies, and its eyes are rotating compasses that can foresee the future and sense danger.

No wonder Long Xiaoyao was able to arrive in time to save Ye Xishui. It must have been this soul bone that warned him, which made him abandon the army of the Heavenly Soul Empire and come to the Mingdou Mountains without regard for anything.

Just like when Qiu'er's power of destiny warned her during the Soul Fighting Tournament.

"These two soul bones are truly excellent, and both are perfectly suited for my Qiu'er. One can enhance the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's power of destiny, while the other can enhance the power of her Golden Dragon Martial Soul." Yuwen Tuo accepted the six soul bones with satisfaction.

He then immediately flew downwards, knowing that Xiao Xiao and Sister Luo Chen couldn't possibly have missed such a massive force that had surged into the sky.

They must have been extremely anxious at this point.

Just as he expected, Xiao Xiao and Ling Luochen flew back to the Mingdou Mountains and saw the devastated battlefield. Only Qiu'er was barely able to stand by using the Golden Dragon Spear; there was nothing else.

Flowers, grass, trees, and rocks were all reduced to dust in this battle.

"Qiu'er, where's Tuotuo?" Xiao Xiao asked Qiu'er, her eyes red.

"Tuo, he..." Qiu'er hesitated, she was also very worried, but she really didn't know what the situation was. Before seeing Yuwen Tuo's body, she firmly believed that her Tuo would not die so easily.

Therefore, she wouldn't casually say anything negative to Xiao Xiao.
