Douluo Continent: An Adventure Begins in Wuhun City

As he pondered, Chen Yao's expression turned cold, and then a terrifying surge of soul power erupted from his arms!

He didn't want to waste any more time with Liu Erlong and the others, so he directly activated two divine-level soul bones!

Instantly, the surrounding space trembled violently, bursting out with sharp, piercing roars. A burst of black flames rose from the sky, as if heavenly fire had descended upon the world.

The earth cracked open, and countless dark ice spikes condensed from the abyss before exploding, forming a terrifying ice explosion.

"What the hell is this?!"

"do not come!"

"Lord, save me!"

In an instant, the once surging crowd scattered, each one letting out a shrill scream.

Some continuously released their martial spirits and soul skills, trying to extinguish the strange black flames on their bodies, but not only did they fail, the flames on their bodies intensified, and finally, amidst the shrill screams, they turned into nothingness, leaving no trace of time behind!

Others, however, moved swiftly, trying to dodge the dark ice explosions rising from the ground.

But the dark ice explosion was everywhere, covering every corner within a radius of several miles. There was no way to avoid it, and in the end, all of them, with their endless despairing gazes, were completely engulfed by the dark ice explosion!

In just a moment after the soul bone was activated, almost half of the densely packed figures were cleared out.

Those who survived and were still struggling, with higher strength, all looked pleadingly at their leader, Liu Erlong!

However, Liu Erlong had no interest in the situation of the other members of the temple at the moment.

Her body was now covered in a magnificent dark purple dragon scale armor, and the wings of a demonic dragon appeared behind her.

Eight soul rings appeared: yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black.

The arm that had transformed into a dragon claw, wielding a dark purple scythe, swung it continuously, desperately trying to resist the black flames and dark ice that kept surging towards it!

She had already shown all her strength, but even so, Liu Erlong still felt powerless in the face of the dark ice and darkness that had condensed into a violent, surging, terrifying and evil energy. This made her face contort, her teeth clenched, and she persevered.

"Boom!"

The violent roar produced by the collision of the two extreme energies of ice and fire lasted for a while before gradually subsiding.

At this moment, the once desolate forest has become a complete wasteland. The residual energy drifting in the air creates gusts of eerie winds, making the place seem so sinister, like a ghost town.

Chapter 112 Ah Yin?!

The once numerous members of the Demon Dragon Palace had all vanished without a trace, leaving only Liu Erlong, her armor shattered and large expanses of her fair skin exposed, lying unconscious not far away.

Although the faint Rakshasa divine power within her body allowed her to survive the two terrifying surges of ice and fire energy, she also lost consciousness because her divine power and soul power were completely exhausted.

Not far away, Chen Yao's figure also collapsed to the ground. He had just released the power of two divine-level soul bones at all costs, and his own power was completely exhausted.

Although he did not lose consciousness, he did not even have the strength to stand up.

"call!"

Chen Yao looked at Liu Erlong, who was barely clinging to life in the distance, took a deep breath, and then painstakingly took out an exquisite dagger from his soul tool.

This was originally one of Bibi Dong's collections. It was made of precious materials and was exquisitely crafted, worth a lot of money. He embezzled it with the intention of selling it for money and living a carefree life. He never imagined that one day he would be so weak that he would use this work of art to kill someone.

With a forced smile, Chen Yao handed the dagger to Tang Yuehua, who was supporting him, and said weakly.

"Take this dagger, kill her, and then take me away from here."

Tang Yuehua was stunned when she saw the dagger being handed to her.

"Ah I?"

"Otherwise what? Do I look like I have any energy left?"

Chen Yao said weakly.

"But I can't! I've never killed anyone."

Tang Yuehua's hand trembled as she took the dagger, her face filled with helplessness and panic.

"Even if you lack talent, how could you be afraid to kill someone in a sect like the Haotian Sect?"

Chen Yao looked on in disbelief.

Tang Yuehua lowered her head and spoke in a barely audible voice.

"Perhaps it's because of my martial spirit, but I've disliked fighting since I was a child, and I always stayed far away from any competitions among the sect's disciples. So..."

Chen Yao was speechless at Tang Yuehua's explanation, and then said impatiently.

"Alright, you don't know how to kill, then I'll teach you how. Now take this dagger, go up to her, and stab her three times on each side of her chest. Then dismember her limbs, cut off her head, and throw them all into that fire to burn!"

Chen Yao pointed to a cluster of still-burning black flames beside Liu Erlong not far away and said.

Upon hearing Chen Yao's terrifying and bloody words, Tang Yuehua's brows furrowed, revealing obvious fear. After struggling with her inner turmoil, she mustered her courage, took the dagger, stood up, and was about to walk towards Liu Erlong.

However, the next moment, a cold snort suddenly came from behind, causing Chen Yao and Tang Yuehua's expressions to freeze instantly.

"You humans are truly wicked, you don't even spare your own kind!"

Chen Yao turned around abruptly and saw a beautiful figure slowly walking towards him.

As the figure drew closer, Chen Yao finally saw the person's face clearly in the faint moonlight.

She was a very beautiful woman with long, flowing blue-gold hair that cascaded down to her waist, and fair skin as smooth as jade.

Her delicate features exude an air of noble elegance.

However, upon seeing this face, Chen Yao's pupils seemed to tremble violently, and he exclaimed in disbelief.

"Ah Yin? How could this be? How could you..."

"How come I'm not dead?"

Ah Yin walked over with an indifferent expression, her demeanor and bearing befitting an empress—noble and inviolable.

He walked up to Chen Yao, glanced at Tang Yuehua who was trembling with a blade in her hand, and then looked at Liu Erlong who had fallen into a coma in the distance.

He then looked down at Chen Yao with disdain in his eyes.

It is disgust at their killings and disrespect for life, and contempt at forcing innocent young girls to commit such heinous acts.

Ah Yin truly didn't understand why there was such a reckless and lawless person as Chen Yao in this world.

"How did you manage to survive? Don't tell me you also received divine favor?"

Looking up at Ah Yin, Chen Yao suddenly felt a pang of toothache.

He clearly only wanted to leave Wuhun City, so why did he encounter so many monsters and demons along the way?

First there was Liu Erlong, then there was Ah Yin who came back from the dead.

At this moment, he felt completely numb.

"Yes, thanks to you!"

Ah Yin didn't deny it; she nodded indifferently, admitting it.

Now it was Chen Yao's turn to be stunned. He had only said it casually, thinking that Ah Yin was only able to be reborn because of the Blue Silver Emperor's enormous life force and some other opportunity.

After all, in the Douluo Continent, there are quite a few ways to revive; it's always the same old story: "Resurrect!"

But Chen Yao never expected that Ah Yin would actually inherit the legacy.

As a soul beast?

Didn't those guys in the God Realm want to prevent soul beasts from ever raising their heads again because of the old Dragon King? How could any god possibly choose Ah Yin as his successor and resurrect her?

Seeing Chen Yao's incredulous gaze, Ah Yin couldn't help but sigh softly.

She knew that Chen Yao wasn't shocked by her resurrection and revenge, but rather by the fact that a mere soul beast like her could actually inherit a divine position.

This reveals the attitude of the gods in the divine realm towards soul beasts.

Although Ah Yin has now completely transformed into a human, she still hopes that soul beasts can have their own habitat and live in harmony with humans, instead of always being coveted and hunted by humans.

But with her current abilities, achieving this is nothing short of a pipe dream. Perhaps it will only be possible after she fully inherits the position of the God of Life and gains a voice in the divine realm.

However, that's a long time from now. The important thing now is to deal with Chen Yao right now.

Putting her thoughts aside, Ah Yin looked at Chen Yao with a hint of mockery in her eyes and said...

"So, now that I'm standing before you again, is there anything you'd like to say?"

Chen Yao looked at the smug Ah Yin, his lips twitched slightly, and he slowly shook his head.

"Things have really changed now. Unlike before, when they wouldn't even dare to lift their heads when they saw me."

"You dare bring up the past?!"

Upon hearing this, Ah Yin's expression changed, and she angrily rebuked him.

However, Chen Yao simply shrugged indifferently.

"Tsk tsk, I really don't know which god was so blind as to pass on a divine position to a blade of grass like you."

After making a provocative statement, Chen Yao ignored Ah Yin's murderous gaze and looked at Tang Yuehua beside him, sighing.

"Bad luck. It seems you're going to die here today. How about it, do you regret coming with me?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua snapped out of her daze. Instead of showing fear, she smiled, and under the moonlight, she was breathtakingly beautiful.

"I don't regret it. Perhaps this is my punishment for betraying the Haotian Sect. But being able to walk this path with you and die with you feels pretty good. I don't feel any regret."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao's eye twitched, and he subconsciously wanted to explain that he wouldn't actually die; he could still run, and it was only Tang Yuehua who would die.

But looking at the deep affection and satisfaction on her face, the words stuck in his throat. Perhaps letting her die in this confused state was the best outcome.

Chapter 113 Both Prisoners

"You don't seem scared at all?"

At this moment, Ah Yin looked at Chen Yao's indifferent expression and asked curiously.

"What, if I'm scared you'll let me go and not seek revenge? Or do you want to see me kneel down and beg for mercy? I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."

Chen Yao's expression remained unchanged, a faint smile playing on his lips. He collapsed to the ground, looking resigned to his fate.
