Douluo Dragon King: I, the wielder of the Holy Sword, will vanquish all evil.

Chapter 207 That slippery guy, leap

Is it a forced outbreak at the risk of spiraling out of control, or...
"The outside world is so amazing! Hmm, where should I go for a stroll tomorrow?"

"There's a fight going on here, let me take a look."

A sudden voice rang out: "Huh, a Titan Ape?"

The alleys of Starry Night City are bottomless, stained in darkness by the night, with only a few scattered soul guide lights casting a dim yellow glow at the alley entrances.

Yuan Enhui was looking into the alley, his brows slightly furrowed.

Suddenly, a sinister laugh rang out, sending chills down her spine.

"I smell it, the scent of decadence."

A dark figure slowly emerged from the shadows at the end of the alley, wearing a green skull mask and holding a scythe wrapped in chains, with a pulsating dark green core embedded at its end.

Yuan Enhui's eyes narrowed, and after thinking for a moment, he said solemnly, "An evil soul master?"

"Alas, that is a misunderstanding of us by the world." The evil spirit master cackled, lightly tapping the ground with his scythe, and black and red mist spread along the road. "I extend my sincerest invitation to you. Join us; the wonderful aura emanating from you makes you a worthy member of our group."

A greedy glint flashed in his eyes: "As long as you join us, the organization will grant you stronger dark power, allowing your martial spirit to break through to a higher realm."

“No interest.” Yuan Enhui coldly refused, and the phantom of the Titan Giant Ape appeared. “I disdain the dealings of evil soul masters. Either get lost or die.”

The evil spirit master's smile froze, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes: "Not this one."

After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly realized and said, "Twin Martial Souls?"

He then bowed slightly in a requesting gesture: "May I see your other martial soul? I can sense that it is absolutely the most beautiful thing in the world."

Too lazy to deal with the other party, Yuan Enhui wanted to retreat, but found that she was already being targeted. Running away would only lead to instant defeat.

"trouble."

Yuan Enhui's voice was colder than the evening breeze of Starry Night City.

The phantom of the Titan Ape solidified behind her, its faint light illuminating the darkness a few feet around her and firmly holding back the ever-exploring, spreading black and red mist.

The evil spirit master paid no attention to her killing intent. Instead, he took a deep breath of the "aura" in the air, which was becoming more and more obvious due to the manifestation of his martial spirit, as if he were appreciating a rare treasure.

The dark green core of the chain sickle in his hand throbbed even more merrily.

“What a pure and noble depravity, yet it is suppressed and defiled by the savage power of the giant ape.” He shook his head, his tone full of regret. “Have you never listened to the yearning of the other voice within you? It yearns for freedom, yearns to embrace true darkness, that is it, and the source of your power.”

"My affairs are none of your business to judge, you cowardly coward." Yuan En Ye Hui took a step forward, causing the ground to tremble slightly. The incomplete one-word battle armor instantly donned on his body.

“It seems words cannot move you.” The evil spirit master sighed regretfully, slowly raising the scythe in his hand. “Then, I will have to let you experience firsthand what true power is. This is not coercion, but enlightenment.”

The chains rattled, and the blade of the sickle gleamed with an eerie green light.

The black and red mist was no longer content with spreading; it began to churn and condense, transforming into twisted, shadowy arms with sharp claws that slowly extended from the darkness in all directions, reaching out to grab Yuanen Yehui.

A series of sharp, malicious whispers filled the air, drilling directly into her mind. Yuan Enhui's eyes narrowed; she knew this was a mental attack.

She made the first move, striking with her left fist. A highly compressed ball of energy roared out, not aimed at the evil spirit master's body, but at the densest area of ​​her left shadow arm.

"boom!"

The air mass exploded, and a violent shockwave swept through, blasting several shadowy arms into disintegration and mist.

However, the mist only churned slightly before condensing again under the faint light of the dark green core, only its color was slightly duller.

"It's useless." The evil spirit master chuckled. "Your power is indeed fierce, but it's inefficient against this kind of power that lies between reality and illusion. Why struggle in vain? Unleash your true power; just a wisp of it will be enough to obliterate these annoying shadows."

He was inducing, or even forcing, Yuan En Ye Hui to use the power of a fallen angel.

Yuan Enhui pursed her lips and remained silent. The phantom of the Titan Ape shone brightly, and the battle armor covering her fists glowed faintly.

He charged towards the shadowy arms, his fists, elbows, knees, and legs transforming into ferocious weapons, shattering each grasping shadow.

Pure force attacks are indeed limited in effect, often requiring two or three punches to completely shatter an arm. However, with her amazing physical abilities, she maneuvered and dodged amidst the onslaught of arms, holding her own for a time and instead slowly but steadily advancing towards the evil spirit master's main body.

“Stubborn to the end.” The evil spirit master seemed to have lost his patience, and with a swing of his scythe, he said, “Then I will intensify the enlightenment.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the attack rhythm of all the shadow arms suddenly accelerated. At the same time, dozens of sharp spikes suddenly pierced out from the black and red mist flowing on the ground, blocking Yuan Enhui's evasion space.

A wisp of extremely concentrated dark green light, silently blending into the shadows, shot towards her back.

Yuan Enhui narrowly avoided the ground spikes by twisting her body and punched away the dark green light, but the aftershock of the explosion made her blood and qi surge, slowing her movements by a fraction.

In that moment of hesitation, three or four shadowy arms seized the opportunity to wrap around her ankles and wrists.

A cold, slippery sensation, with a strong feeling of absorbing soul power, came through the contact point. More importantly, a chilling and chaotic emotion that went straight to the soul pierced through the point of contact.

"Uh," Yuan Enhui groaned, and the Titan Ape's light flashed violently.

A sharp pain emanated from the point of entanglement, not from the physical body, but from the erosion of the martial spirit and even the soul. Worse still...

The dark power belonging to the fallen angel that she had been suppressing within her body was stirred uncontrollably for a moment under the stimulation of this filthy external force.

In just a moment, she suppressed it with even stronger willpower.

"Hahaha! I felt it! I knew I wasn't wrong!" The evil spirit master let out a wild, excited laugh, the greed in his eyes almost tangible. "It's it! Such pure dark essence! Join us, and you will gain the power to control it, not be controlled by it. You will be omnipotent!"

Yuan Enhui's face appeared somewhat pale in the dim light, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The binding and erosion continued, and the conflict between the two forces within her made her feel as if she were caught between two extremes of ice and fire. The situation took a sharp turn for the worse.

"I will never, ever." She gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with alternating golden light and a barely perceptible hint of darkness, as if she were making an extremely difficult decision.
