Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 207 One Punch Sends a Title Douluo Flying

Sensing the ferocious aura emanating from Dugu Han, the three women, including Xian Lin'er, immediately retreated more than ten steps.

Even when facing Dugu Han, who possesses pure physical strength, Qian Duoduo dared not be careless. His first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth spirit rings all lit up at the same time.

The Black Dragon Shield instantly glowed with black light, its body expanding several times in an instant. The black dragon pattern on the shield surface fully awakened at this moment, its head raised and roaring, its entire body enveloped in dark red light.

With a loud 'boom'!
Qian Duoduo slammed the shield to the ground, gripped it tightly with both hands, and looked at Dugu Han with a solemn expression.

Dugu Han had already mobilized all the qi and blood in his body and concentrated it in his right hand.

He clenched his right fist and suddenly threw a straight punch containing a spiraling force.

Before the fist even arrived, the black dragon pattern on the surface of Qian Duoduo's Wulong Shield trembled violently, and ripples spread across the surface of the shield, which was covered with cracks.

Then, a fierce punch tore through the air with a sharp whistling sound, and Dugu Han's body was enveloped in crimson blood and qi, like tangible smoke.

"break!"

Dugu Han roared, and his fist force transformed into a crimson cone of light. The moment it touched the shield, it unleashed a deafening roar.

The black dragon pattern on the Wulong Shield exploded the moment it was touched by Dugu Han's right fist. The cracks on the Wulong Shield were rapidly covered by lightning under this enormous force.

Qian Duoduo, who was holding the Wulong Shield, felt a tearing pain in his arms and his feet were sinking half a foot into the ground as he tried his best to resist the enormous force coming from the surface of the shield.

However, Dugu Han has now not only awakened the power of Qi and Blood, and his physical body has been strengthened again by the Seed of Qi and Blood and life energy, but his control over himself is also beyond that of ordinary people, and he can perfectly mobilize the power of his whole body.

Furthermore, his right hand is enhanced by the right palm bone of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, making his strength already terrifyingly powerful.

Qian Duoduo could only hold out for a moment before he could no longer withstand the immense force on the shield's surface. He and the shield flew backward for over a hundred meters before finally coming to a stop.

The once invincible Black Dragon Shield has now shattered into countless fragments, each one covered with spiral cracks, slowly drifting down from the sky.

Dugu Han stood with his fist clenched, his hair moving without wind, and the surging qi and blood around his body and the remaining red aura on his fist gradually dissipated.

“Duoduo!”

When Xian Lin'er saw that Qian Duoduo's Wulong Shield was broken, she rushed over.

Dugu Han followed closely behind, and Han Ruoruo and Ma Xiaotao also went after him.

The group approached Qian Duoduo and looked at him with concern.

"I'm fine!"

Qian Duoduo shook his head, his face pale. The shattering of his martial soul was not a big deal for him; he just couldn't use it for the time being, but he could recover after a period of recuperation.

He just didn't expect that Dugu Han's physical strength alone could be so strong, so strong that even this titled Douluo couldn't withstand it.

After all, if a Soul Master doesn't use Martial Soul Possession and the physical strength enhanced by Soul Power, how strong can he be? So he didn't use the three later Soul Rings and Soul Bone Skills.

But that was still a bit too much!

Qian Duoduo didn't expect Dugu Han's physical strength to be so strong, so strong that even he couldn't withstand it.

After confirming that Qian Duoduo was alright, Xian Lin'er felt relieved, and then looked at Dugu Han with a complicated expression.

It's hard to imagine that someone could do this without using their Martial Soul, Soul Rings, Soul Bone skills, or Soul Power.

With just his physical strength, he sent Qian Duoduo, a titled Douluo, flying over a hundred meters away, and even shattered Qian Duoduo's martial soul.

"I knew Junior Uncle wasn't human! Such a powerful physical body, is that something a human could do?"

Ma Xiaotao looked at Dugu Han and couldn't help but say something.

Upon hearing this, Han Ruoruo looked at Dugu Han with a beaming smile. As Dugu Han's woman, the stronger Dugu Han was, the happier she would be.

"Junior brother, now I understand why you were able to achieve a third spirit ring that lasts for ten thousand years and a fifth spirit ring that lasts for one hundred thousand years!"

After a while, Qian Duoduo shook his still numb hands and said with embarrassment, "With your terrifying physical strength, let alone ten-thousand-year or one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings, even if you said one day that you absorbed a million-year soul ring, I wouldn't be surprised at all."

"Easy for you to say. How could there possibly be a million-year soul ring in this world? And even if there were million-year soul beasts, how would you hunt them down?" Xian Lin'er shook her head.

"That's true!"

Qian Duoduo nodded in agreement. A ferocious beast that was six or seven hundred thousand years old was already equivalent to a human Limit Douluo. He couldn't even imagine how powerful a million-year-old soul beast would be.

Dugu Han listened to their conversation, but just smiled and didn't interrupt.

While million-year-old soul beasts are indeed nonexistent, million-year-old soul rings are not impossible.

He glanced at Ma Xiaotao. If nothing unexpected happened, if Ma Xiaotao could pass the Moon Goddess's test, she would receive a divinely bestowed soul ring. Her ninth soul ring choice was the Crimson King, so she no longer needed a divinely bestowed soul ring!

Why are you looking at me like that, Junior Uncle?

Ma Xiaotao noticed Dugu Han's gaze, touched her cheek curiously, and asked Han Ruoruo beside her, "Sister Ruoruo, is there something dirty on my face?"

"No, it's very clean and beautiful!" Han Ruoruo said with a smile.

"Why was Junior Uncle staring at me like that?" Ma Xiaotao asked Dugu Han in confusion.

"It's nothing, I was just curious about what you got from the Soul Hunt this time. I haven't had a chance to ask you how it went yet," Dugu Han said casually.

Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo also looked at Ma Xiaotao curiously. So far, all they knew was that Ma Xiaotao had absorbed a 190,000-year-old Fire Phoenix Soul Ring, but they knew nothing about the Soul Ring's skills or abilities. "A very fruitful harvest!"

When Ma Xiaotao talked about her gains from this soul-hunting trip, she said proudly, "First, I absorbed a piece of 100,000-year-old whale glue, which greatly enhanced my physical fitness. Then, I absorbed the Fire Phoenix Soul Ring and Soul Bone, which not only greatly increased my fire attribute but also directly raised my soul power to level 85."

"Furthermore, the Phoenix's torso bone also gave me a soul bone skill that is most suitable for me: Rebirth in Flames!"

"Xiao Tao, is it an amplification soul skill?"

Xian Lin'er asked curiously, feeling that this soul skill, in name only, should be an amplification type soul bone skill.

"No, it's an immortal divine skill!" Ma Xiaotao said.

"An immortality technique?"

Dugu Han asked in surprise, "The phoenix's rebirth from the ashes?"

"Rebirth requires death first, but my Soul Bone Technique allows me to..."

Ma Xiaotao paused deliberately, then, seeing the curious looks on everyone's faces, said, word by word, "Not... dead!"

"Undying?"

Xian Lin'er exclaimed, "True immortality?"

"No way!"

Qian Duoduo also looked at Ma Xiaotao in surprise. It was just a 190,000-year-old skeleton. Even if it was a perfect match for Ma Xiaotao's martial soul, how could it possibly provide a soul bone skill that could make someone truly immortal?

Han Ruoruo looked at Ma Xiaotao, who was keeping her in suspense, with amusement. She had heard Ma Xiaotao talk about this soul bone skill when they were alone together at the Sea God Pavilion.

It is indeed incredibly powerful, but to say that it is truly immortal is absolutely impossible.

"It's not really immortality in the true sense!"

After keeping everyone in suspense, Ma Xiaotao revealed the function of this soul bone skill: "The main function of my soul bone skill is to heal myself. No matter how serious the injury I suffer, as long as I can come into contact with fire, I can recover quickly."

"And my Phoenix Sacred Flame can further accelerate this recovery process, and it is..."

Ma Xiaotao then prepared to keep everyone in suspense once again.

“It’s costless, right?” Dugu Han suddenly said.

"No cost?"

Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo's pupils contracted. A 190,000-year-old soul bone skill, without any cost?
"how do you know?"

Ma Xiaotao looked at Dugu Han in surprise: "Did Grandmaster tell you?"

"The teacher didn't say, but if you call a healing skill a god-tier skill, then it's very likely that it's a passive skill with very low or even no cost."

Dugu Han voiced his guess, then laughed and said, "It seems I was right!"

"How boring!"

Ma Xiaotao rolled her eyes at him; she was going to keep him in suspense for a while longer!

"So it really is a skill with no cost?"

Xianlin'er and Qian Duoduo were both a little hesitant.

They found it hard to imagine that a 190,000-year-old soul bone skill could be used without any cost.

"It consumes no resources!"

Ma Xiaotao nodded, then continued, "When I came back, my master found me a 100,000-year-old sea spirit beast for an experiment."

"With just this self-healing soul bone skill and another soul bone skill, that 100,000-year-old sea soul beast had no way to deal with me. On the contrary, I could wear it down to death without any worries by exchanging injuries with it."

Ma Xiaotao said with some regret, "It's just that my master said that 100,000-year-old soul beasts are too rare, so he intentionally let it go. Otherwise, it would have been another 100,000-year-old soul bone."

"So you almost single-handedly killed a 100,000-year-old sea spirit beast?"

Xianlin'er said in shock.

"Almost!"

Ma Xiaotao nodded helplessly. If it weren't for Elder Mu's obstruction, she would have truly accomplished the feat of a Soul Douluo single-handedly killing a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast!
Dugu Han looked at Ma Xiaotao with surprise.

Even ordinary Title Douluo would give way to a 100,000-year-old soul beast, and a 100,000-year-old sea soul beast could rival a super Douluo in combat power on the sea.

Ma Xiaotao was able to almost wear down a 100,000-year-old sea spirit beast on the high seas with this soul bone skill, which shows that this soul bone skill can truly be called a divine skill.

"correct"

Dugu Han thought for a moment and asked, "You just said there's another soul bone skill."

Xianlin'er and Qian Duoduo also looked at Ma Xiaotao with curiosity.

The Fire Phoenix's soul rings and soul bones are an excellent match for her. Her Fire Rebirth Soul Bone skill is already considered a divine skill, so her other soul bone skill can't be bad either.
