Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor

Immediately afterwards, the red light faded, and a gray mist filled the air.

When Hu Bai could see the world around him again, his heart clenched.

This place is no longer the bustling Blue Star, nor the ruined Martial Soul City, but a lonely tomb.

The sky was gray, with no sun and no stars.

The earth was cracked and parched, and the howling wind whipped up yellow sand, emitting a mournful sound like the wailing of ghosts and wolves.

Hu Bai found himself transformed into a stone statue, sitting atop a towering mountain peak.

He couldn't move or speak.

We could only watch helplessly as time passed.

One year, ten years, one hundred years, one thousand years...

The sea below the mountain turned into mulberry fields, and the mulberry fields turned into desert.

He witnessed the Martial Soul Empire's glory and decline over time, ultimately turning to dust.

He watched familiar faces grow old and die one by one.

Qian Renxue was no longer the peerless angel goddess. Over the long years, she exhausted her divine power and, in order to protect this plane, eventually turned into a wisp of remnant soul about to dissipate.

She stood before his stone statue, stroking his cold face, her cloudy eyes filled with longing.

"Xiaobai, I'm leaving."

Why aren't you awake yet?

"I've waited for you for ten thousand years... I'm so tired..."

With that sigh, Qian Renxue transformed into starlight and vanished in the wind.

Next up is Gu Yuena.

She went mad in loneliness, wailed in despair, and finally settled beside his stone statue, turning into a huge skeleton.

Bibi Dong, Dugu Bo...

Everyone else died in the end, except for him.

He possessed an endless lifespan, yet he could only sit in this desolate world, guarding the scattered bones until the end of the universe.

This kind of loneliness, this desolate feeling of watching your loved one pass away helplessly, is more tormenting than any physical pain.

"This is the price of eternity, shall we continue?"

"Perhaps... we should just fall asleep like this, and in our dreams, they'll still be alive..."

That alluring voice rang out again, filled with endless vicissitudes and sorrow.

Suddenly, a crack appeared on the surface of the stone statue.

Immediately afterwards, golden and silver light shone through the crack.

"you're right."

"If eternity means loneliness, then such eternity is better left unfulfilled."

"But who told you that this is the end?"

"boom!"

The stone statue shattered!

Hu Bai's figure burst forth from the stone and hovered in the gray sky.

He looked at the withered bones and graves at his feet, his eyes filled not with sorrow, but with an aura of dominance that seemed to reverse the course of history.

"I am the god who controls destiny!"

"If time is going to take them away, then I will cut off time itself!"

"If life and death are the rules, then I will rewrite the rules!"

"The eternity I desire is that when one attains enlightenment, even one's chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!"

"I want to take them with me and transcend this!"

"Break it for me!"

Hu Bai stretched out his hand, and the Eye of Destiny between his brows burst forth with dazzling divine light, directly reversing the cause and effect of this world.

Flesh grows from withered bones, time flows backward.

The lamentations turned into battle songs.

The Trial of Sorrow, shattered!
……

The trials that followed came in quick succession.

The fourth trial: the test of fear.

Hu Bai lost all his power and became a cripple. He was hunted by his enemies, abandoned by his lover, and struggled to survive in the mud.

But he didn't back down.

"The heart of a strong person lies not in strength, but in doing what they dare not do!"

With his mortal body, he crushed the throat of fear.

The fifth trial: the test of love.

This time, there are no enemies, only a haven of comfort.

Qian Renxue and Gu Yuena transformed into the most perfect lovers, using the most affectionate chains to try and keep him forever in a gentle cage.

"Little White, let's not go to the God Realm. Let's stay together like this forever, isn't that good?"

"We don't need stronger power, love is enough."

"It is because I love you that I must move forward."

"Stagnant love will eventually become extremely vulnerable when danger comes."

"The love I want is to fight side by side, to meet at the summit!"

The sixth trial: The Trial of Evil.

Endless power and desire lay before him.

If he wanted, he could sacrifice the entire Douluo Continent and instantly become the ruler of the universe, but he kicked over the throne.

"I don't care!"

……

Time passed slowly, and only the final hurdle remained.

The Trial of Desire!

Soon, Hu Bai's surroundings turned into an ambiguous pink.

A sweet, cloying fragrance filled the air, and Hu Bai found himself in a magnificent palace floating in the clouds.

Inside the palace, red gauze curtains provided warmth, and the place was resplendent with gold and jade.

But he was unable to move.

He was bound by an invisible force to a huge golden throne, and could only watch helplessly as he looked ahead.

"Da da da……"

Crisp footsteps sounded.

Two stunningly beautiful figures slowly emerged from the left and right sides of the main hall, respectively.

On the left is Qian Renxue.

Instead of wearing the angelic attire that symbolized battle and majesty, she changed into an almost transparent gold tulle nightgown.

Her graceful figure, which was originally covered by armor, was now partially visible.

Her snow-white skin gleamed like ivory beneath the golden gauze, and her long legs swayed with breathtaking curves with every step.

Her eyes were no longer filled with her usual arrogance, but with resentment, longing, and a hint of morbid possessiveness.

"noob……"

Qian Renxue walked to the left side of the throne, stretched out her hot jade hand, and gently stroked Hu Bai's cheek.

"Do you love me?"

On the right is Gu Yuena.

She also removed the Silver Dragon King's battle robes, wearing only a layer of silver silk, which clung tightly to her exaggerated curves like flowing moonlight.

His purple eyes shimmered with a wild and aggressive quality.

"noob……"

Gu Yuena walked to the right side of the throne, coiling around it like a beautiful snake, her fingertips drawing circles on Hu Bai's chest.

"You're mine, right?"

The two women, one on the left and one on the right, sandwiched Hu Bai in the middle.

The combined visual and sensory impact is enough to instantly shatter any man's rationality.

But Hu Bai soon realized something was wrong.

This is not just a temptation, it's a war.

"Step aside."

Qian Renxue turned her head and stared coldly at Gu Yuena, the tenderness in her eyes instantly turning into icy killing intent.

"I am his first woman and his legal wife."

"You're just a newcomer, what makes you think you can compete with me?"

Gu Yuena chuckled softly, her purple eyes narrowing slightly, and she retaliated without showing any weakness:

"The legal wife?"

"When it comes to feelings, it's not about who came first or who's more important."

“I accompanied him through life and death in the realm of gods, and even left my essence within him.”

Our souls have long been intertwined.

"what about you?"

"Are you worthy?"

boom!
The two women's auras erupted instantly, and the power of angels and the power of dragon gods collided violently in the confined space.

Hu Bai was caught in the middle, feeling as if he were being squeezed by two mountains at the same time.

"Don't...don't make noise..." Hu Bai tried to speak up to persuade them, but found that he couldn't make a sound at all.

He can only see, hear, and feel.

"Humph!"

Qian Renxue conjured a golden blade of light in her hand, pointing it directly at Gu Yuena.

"Xiaobai, you choose."

She looked at Hu Bai with a coercive look in her eyes.

"Kill her."

"As long as you kill this vixen, we can go back to the way things were."

"Isn't it nice to have a world just for the two of us?"

"Xiaobai, choose me."

Gu Yuena also took out the Silver Dragon Spear, pressing the tip against Qian Renxue's throat.

"This woman will only bind you."

"And I can help you become a god, and accompany you to conquer the universe."

"Kill her, and I will be your only Dragon Queen."

"Let us rule the realm of gods together and live forever."

asphyxia!

Extreme suffocation!
This is the core of his trial of desire: exclusivity.

The essence of love is selfishness and possession.

The trial was meant to tell Hu Bai: You can't have it all; greed leads to destruction.

Hu Bai looked at the two women in front of him, their faces gradually turning ferocious as they drew their swords against each other in their struggle for him.

His heart was pounding.

Who to kill?
How to choose?
What a load of rubbish!
"This is... what they call the trial?"

Hu Bai sneered inwardly.

"Low-class!"

"That's too low-level!"

"Who do you think I am?"

"I am the man destined to become the King of Gods!"

"True strength lies not in making choices within the rules."

"It's about breaking the rules!"

At that moment, the three soul cores (spirit, element, and destiny) within Hu Bai's body simultaneously and frantically reversed!

boom!
A willpower that transcended the rules of the trial erupted from the depths of his soul.

The throne that imprisoned him shattered instantly!
"I choose..."

Hu Bai suddenly stood up.

At this moment, Qian Renxue and Gu Yuena's weapons were already thrusting at each other, and it looked like they were about to die on the spot.

"all I want!"

Hu Bai reached out with both hands at the same time, grabbing Qian Renxue's light blade with his left hand and Gu Yuena's dragon spear with his right.

Blood flowed down his palm, but he didn't even flinch.

"noob?!"

The two women in the illusion were both stunned.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

Hu Bai's voice was deep and hoarse, carrying an undeniable domineering air.

He used a sudden force to snatch the two weapons and tossed them aside.

Then, he stretched out his long arms and forcefully pulled the two stunning goddesses, who were still in a daze, into his arms!
"Qian Renxue, you are mine!"

"Gu Yuena, you're mine too!"

"Don't try to play any of those 'either/or' tricks on me!"

Qian Renxue struggled to lift her head, the fierceness in her eyes lessening somewhat, but still tinged with grievance:

"But...she wants to take you away..."

Gu Yuena also bit her lip:

"But...she can't accept me..."

"Then let me accommodate you!"

Hu Bai stopped wasting words.

Reasoning is useless in this trial of desire.

Only by using the most primitive and direct methods can we prove that his "desire" is enough to control everything!
"Well!"

Hu Bai lowered his head and kissed Qian Renxue's red lips domineeringly.

This time, there was no gentleness, only conquest.

He poured all his love, guilt, and unique possessiveness for Qian Renxue into this kiss.

Qian Renxue's originally stiff body softened instantly under this scorching attack.

She felt the voice in Hu Bai's heart: You are my light, I will never give up on you.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

Before Qian Renxue could react, Hu Bai turned around and kissed Gu Yuena again.

Gu Yuena's wildness was completely ignited, and she responded passionately, feeling Hu Bai's feelings.

"Now……"

Hu Bai released the two women and looked into their dazed eyes.

"Still fighting?"

Qian Renxue and Gu Yuena exchanged a glance.

The hostility in his eyes completely disappeared.

Instead, there is a wonderful harmony and shyness.

"I'm not playing anymore..."

Qian Renxue nestled against his left shoulder, like a kitten that had tucked its claws in.

"Listen to you……"

Gu Yuena leaned against his right shoulder, as docile as a lamb.

boom!
The ambiguous pink palace surrounding him shattered instantly, turning into countless points of light that merged into Hu Bai's body.

In the real world, inside Hu Bai's palace.

He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze clear and unwavering, showing no trace of the turbidity of desire.

On the contrary, his mental strength reached an unprecedented peak at this moment!
All seven emotions and six desires have been overcome.

The inner demons have been eliminated, and the soul is now complete.

But at that moment, something unexpected happened!

A colorless flame suddenly ignited within Hu Bai's body.

This is the soul fire transformed from the seven emotions and six desires, and it is also the spark that forges divine armor.

[Use your body as a furnace to forge divine armor!]

"what!!"

A suppressed growl squeezed out from deep in Hu Bai's throat.

pain!
The pain that goes deep into the bone marrow!

Under the scorching heat of that inner fire, the soul bones within his body began to surge violently, and dazzling rays of light emerged from his body.

Head: The [Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm - Skull of Wisdom Condensed by Spirit], radiating a dreamlike golden light!
Torso: The [Ice and Snow Maiden Torso Bones] exuding extreme cold!
Left arm: The [Fire Dragon King - Explosive Sky-Burning Left Arm Bone], burning with crimson flames!
Right arm: The [Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Right Arm Bone] shimmering with an emerald green luster!
Left leg: The [Ice Dragon King - Absolute Zero Left Leg Bone], shrouded in deep blue frost!
Right leg: The Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, containing the power of endless life!
A total of six main soul bones!
Each one of these pieces, if taken out, could drive the entire Soul Master world crazy.

There are two more!

External Soul Bone: The Eye of Destiny of the Three-Eyed Demon Fox!
External Soul Bone, Wings of the Evil God
"Give it to me!"

Hu Bai shouted loudly.

The colorless heart fire within his body surged instantly, enveloping all eight soul bones.

Under the tempering of the inner fire, those incomparably hard soul bones began to soften, deform, and fuse.

The skull of Tianmeng transformed into the prototype of the helmet.

The snow woman's torso bones transformed into a breastplate.

The arm bones of the Fire Dragon King and the Ice Dragon King transformed into arm guards...

Hu Bai frantically mobilized the three soul cores within his body, pouring all his power into the divine equipment that was taking shape.

After an unknown amount of time, an unprecedented and exquisitely magnificent divine armor was placed over Hu Bai's body.

Asura - Elemental Judgment Divine Gear!

It has a white-gold color throughout.

At the center of the helmet is a standing golden gem (the Eye of Fate), radiating a divine light that sees into the future.

On the breastplate is a lifelike nine-tailed celestial fox totem, its left arm crimson with undying dragon fire, and its right arm emerald green, radiating a chilling aura that freezes time and space.

His legs were long and powerful; with each step, it seemed as if he could shatter the void.

The moment all the armor was formed, an aura of world-destroying power erupted from Hu Bai.

Divine power!

A perfect fusion of Asura God Power and Elemental God Power!
