Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King

If they hadn't run into Fors, a tough opponent, they probably would have had to fight a lot to take down the four ice bears.

Moreover, a three-thousand-year-old spirit ring is quite suitable for her, who has a cultivation level of three spirit rings. If the spirit ring is too strong, there will be danger when absorbing it.

"Um, thank you." As she approached Ice Bear, Xu Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment before thanking Fors. Although Fors had been invited by Fusheng to help, he could have refused.

But Fors still came. Although Xu Xiaoyan considered Fors a rival in love, Fors ultimately helped her. Therefore, Xu Xiaoyan felt it was necessary to thank Fors.

"It's nothing, this is just a warm-up for me," Fors yawned and replied lazily to Xu Xiaoyan.

"I still can't get along with her." Xu Xiaoyan's face puffed out slightly. That's the expression she had, that's the behavior she displayed, even though she had already considered her as a rival.

But Fors's languid demeanor, as if he never considered her a rival, made her extremely unhappy.

They're both on equal footing right now, so what's with the other side acting like the rightful wife?! She hasn't lost yet!

"Just you wait. Fortune changes every thirty years. Don't underestimate a young girl. One day, I'll make you regret underestimating me today." As if imagining a scene from the future, Xu Xiaoyan couldn't help but smile slightly.

Then, Xu Xiaoyan stopped smiling, squatted down beside the ice bear that was tied up like a dumpling, and gently stroked its head.

"I'm sorry. I don't know if you're a virtual simulation or real. But I'm really sorry, we were attacked by you and had to take action. You're so cute, chubby, and make me feel safe."

Ice Bear seemed a little stunned by what she said, but his eyes remained indifferent.

Xu Xiaoyan murmured, "I've made up my mind. I'm going to choose you Ice Bears as my second soul spirit. I know you definitely won't be happy if we kill your companions."

But the Soul Tower will reward me with a soul spirit. I might have to kill you later, I'm really sorry. I had no choice, don't worry, I'll treat the Ice Bear soul spirit better from now on. Rest in peace.”

The ice bear's eyes flickered, and it let out a series of low growls.

"How do you want to die? Fors just blew up your three companions, leaving them mangled beyond recognition. It was so cruel, I couldn't bear to watch. I would never do that to you."

"I'll leave you a whole corpse, okay?" As she spoke, a flash of light appeared in her hand, and an ice spear began to materialize, its sharp tip aimed at the ice bear's eyes.

"I'll act quickly so you won't suffer too much. I just hope you're a virtual being, not real. If there's an afterlife, stay away from humans and live a good life."

"Roar, roar, roar!" the ice bear growled urgently.

The indifference in his eyes had turned into urgency, and even some fear.

"Huh? What do you mean? I don't understand!" Xu Xiaoyan looked at it blankly.

"Roar, roar!" the ice bear roared again.

“Still don’t understand. Then I’ll do it now.” As she spoke, she raised the ice spear in her hand.

"Roar—" This time, the ice bear's roar was noticeably more shrill. The next moment, its massive body suddenly curled up, specks of white light drifting around it, and as it curled up, it gradually disappeared from the spot.

The specks of white light began to transform into a miniature ice bear, which floated in front of Xu Xiaoyan, pointing at her with its front paws, and then at itself.

"You're willing to be my spirit, right?" Xu Xiaoyan looked at the spirit with bright, sparkling eyes.

"Roar!" The mini ice bear roared repeatedly while nodding frantically.

"I didn't force you, it was your own choice." Xu Xiaoyan looked at it with a charming smile.

"Roar!" The mini ice bear nodded again.

"Alright then, I'll reluctantly agree." Xu Xiaoyan's ice spear disappeared, she sat down on the spot, and her soul power shone through her body. The mini ice bear flew towards her and burrowed directly into her body.

Instantly, a layer of icy mist appeared on Xu Xiaoyan's body.

After a series of sincere (and threatening) exchanges, Xu Xiaoyan finally obtained her third spirit ring.

Chapter 194 The Mysterious Tang Family

Everyone turned to look at Gu Yue, wondering what to do next. After all, Gu Yue was the only one familiar with the Soul Tower.

Gu Yue said, "There's also Yuan En Ye Hui. We must continue upwards. There are two slots for absorbing soul spirits. If we stay here, she can only absorb this soul ring. Xiao Yan can stay here without any problem. She will be teleported out after she finishes her meditation."

Xu Xiaoyan has already obtained a suitable soul spirit; next up is Yuanen Yehui.

"Alright, let's go." Tang Wulin took the lead and stepped into the light gate, followed by Yuanen Yehui and Xie Xie, with Fors, Gu Yue, and Nan Fusheng following behind.

After stepping through the portal, the six were surprised to find that everything before them had changed.

The original octagonal hall has been transformed into a circular hall. The metal doors in the distance are still there, but instead of eight, there is now only one: a massive metal door, thirty meters high and twenty meters wide.

Just as Gu Yue had said, each nine levels represented a new level. After passing the first nine levels, they entered the second level.

Yuan Enhui's eyes began to shine. Xu Xiaoyan had found a suitable soul spirit, and now it was hers. She had the fourth soul ring, unlike Xu Xiaoyan.

The fourth spirit ring can withstand a basic spirit ring level of around four thousand years. Moreover, given that she possesses twin martial spirits, both of which are top-tier martial spirits, she can withstand six thousand years without any problem.

Titan Ape is more suited to strength-type spirits, and from now on, she needs to select the one that suits her best.

"It seems we've become one opponent. Should we attack together or fight one-on-one?" Nan Fusheng asked Tang Wulin.

"Well... let's wait and see how things develop," Tang Wulin replied after thinking for a while.

In the distance, as the group was talking, the only metal door slowly opened. The soul beast they were about to face had not yet appeared, but a fierce aura was already spreading out from behind the metal door.

A muffled thud came from the metal door.

"Bang, bang, bang—" Amidst the booming sounds, a massive figure gradually came into their view.

Its entire body is covered with a layer of purplish-black scales. It is over ten meters long and weighs at least ten thousand kilograms. It walks on all fours and has a huge tail. Every step it takes makes the earth tremble.

At first glance, it looks like a giant lizard, but upon closer inspection, you'll find that its head is much larger than that of a typical lizard, and it has two curved horns extending upwards from its head.

"This is... a Demon Lizard Dragon," Xie Xie said in surprise.

He had only seen this kind of spirit beast in some ancient books, but this was the first time he had seen it in person.

In ancient times, the Demon Lizard Dragon was also an extremely powerful soul beast, belonging to the Earth Dragon category. It had a massive body and incredible speed, and was adept at controlling dark elements.

Moreover, it is an extremely ferocious soul beast. Even if not for food, it often indiscriminately kills other soul beasts, making it highly aggressive. Like the Human-Faced Demon Spider, it belongs to the category that is also ostracized in the soul beast world.

A fierce aura filled the air, and the Demon Lizard Dragon suddenly raised its head and let out a sharp cry.

The piercing sound gave people a feeling of being bombarded with demonic noise.

"Shut up, if you want to die, just say so." The spiritual power of the Spirit Abyss Realm spread out from Fors and struck the Demon Lizard Dragon's brain hard, causing its roar to stop. Then, as if its head had been severely injured, blood began to ooze from its mouth and nose.

"Wait, leave this to me." Tang Wulin suddenly stopped Fors and rushed out. Since breaking through the third seal of the Golden Dragon King, he had not tested his bloodline power to see how much it would enhance him.

The demonic lizard dragon right now is a perfect experimental subject. It has over four thousand years of cultivation and still retains some dragon blood.

Then, facing Tang Wulin, the little dragon man who possessed the Douluo Continent version of "Dragon Beast Slayer," how could a demonic lizard dragon possibly stir up any trouble? It was directly and ruthlessly suppressed.

However, Nan Fusheng noticed that when Tang Wulin killed the Demon Lizard Dragon, his blood and qi seemed to have increased significantly.

"He shouldn't have the Golden Dragon Spear now, so how can he absorb the power of blood and qi?"

Nan Fusheng was puzzled and could only attribute it to the characteristics of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline. Besides, it seemed quite normal for members of the Tang family to have abilities like the Star Absorbing Technique.

He didn't know whether his grandmother, Ah Yin, who had become the core of life, had absorbed the life energy of the Douluo Continent. However, Ah Yin must have received the power that the successive Sea God Pavilion Masters of Shrek Academy had received when they chose to merge themselves into the Golden Ancient Tree upon their death over the past ten thousand years.

His father, Tang San, already possessed the ability to devour when he had an external soul bone, and this ability became unstoppable after he moved to the Fairy Continent.

His future son, Tang Xianyu, also seems to possess considerable devouring abilities.

Even his sister, Tang Wutong, seemed to have an extraordinary ability to absorb energy when using the Golden Dragon Spear. She drained quite a few people dry.

So it seems quite normal that Tang Wulin now possesses some ability to devour.

Yuanen Yehui clearly had no desire to choose the Demon Lizard Dragon, which Tang Wulin had easily defeated.

The eleventh floor, like the tenth floor, has a large door.

The gate slowly opened, and this time, they did not sense any fierce aura, but none of them relaxed.

The soul beasts they encountered on each previous level were far more powerful than those on the next, especially starting from the ninth level, which represented a completely different level. They were now on the eleventh level, which was definitely not going to be any easier than the tenth.

The six of them now stand together in a triangular battle formation, with Fors, the strongest individual among them, occupying the apex at the very front of the triangle.

Yuan Enhui and Tang Wulin positioned themselves at the left and right rear apexes respectively, forming a triangular formation to protect their three companions within the triangular area.

Just then, a scent seemed to waft through the air, a scent that felt like air after it had been exposed to the sun—refreshing yet with a peculiar dryness.

"Huh?" Fors let out a soft exclamation, and even Nan Fusheng behind him couldn't help but let out a strange light in his eyes.

"boom."

In an instant, a bolt of lightning struck the six people fiercely. Tang Wulin's eyes narrowed, and he was about to defend himself when he saw that Fors's hand also unleashed a golden lightning bolt, which collided with the blue-purple lightning bolt, producing a loud boom.

A beam of light shot out from the cave and instantly reached the air. Everyone looked closely; it was completely different from the soul beasts they had encountered before.

Among the soul beasts they had encountered before, their size and strength were generally proportional. However, the soul beast guarding the twelfth level was extremely small.

Its entire body is a strange bright yellow color, and it looks like a small squirrel. Its body length is only about a foot long, but its tail is not fluffy like a squirrel's. Instead, it is pointed and upright with two bends, which looks like lightning.

It had exceptionally large eyes, which almost occupied half of its face. The eyes were blue-purple, and its body was surrounded by electric sparks. It levitated in mid-air entirely by the power of lightning.

"This is practically the Douluo Continent version of Pikachu!" Nan Fusheng looked at the spirit beast before him, a nostalgic expression creeping onto his face. Of course, in the Douluo Continent, this kind of spirit beast has another name.

"Thunder Beast?" Xie Xie blurted out, calling out the name of this soul beast.

That's right, this soul beast is the legendary Thunder Beast, and one of the materials Nan Fusheng added when creating Shenwei Kamui, but...

"This thunder beast's lightning seems to be a nerfed version?"

Pure Thunder Beasts are the darlings of the Thunder element, possessing super soul beasts with ultimate attributes, but this Thunder Beast seems a bit weak? Moreover, the intensity of its lightning hasn't reached the ultimate attribute.

The Thunder Beast in mid-air looked at the six people with some confusion, as if it was thinking about something. Then, it flicked its sharp, lightning-shaped tail, and a blue-purple bolt of lightning descended from the sky, attacking the six people again.

"boom!"
