Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 38 Defeating the Enemy

At the critical moment, a layer of light appeared in front of Zhang Lexuan, blocking the incoming Annihilation Thunder.

Zhang Lexuan had already fainted, and Lin Chen was holding Zhang Lexuan in one arm and blocking the Thunder Qilin's attack with the other.

"This girl is so kind. She'd rather die herself than let you escape. If you ever dare to do anything to betray her, I'll beat you to death." Qian Renxue looked at Zhang Lexuan, who was being held by Lin Chen, and threatened her fiercely.

If only she could have met someone like that back then.

"Sister Lexuan, none of us will die today," Lin Chen whispered, his voice filled with determination.

At the same time, countless suns appeared in the blood-red and blue sky, forcefully supporting a patch of sky, and shot towards the Thunder Qilin.

"Great Sun, Angels, Ten Thousand Suns Rising Above the Heavens!"

Seeing countless suns attacking it, the Thunder Qilin dared not relax. It mobilized its soul power to form a protective shield to resist Lin Chen's attacks.

But at this point, it was already at its last gasp. The battle with Zhang Lexuan had not only exhausted its soul power but also damaged a lot of its lifespan. Right now, it was just struggling to hold on.

As Lin Chen gently landed on the ground, he carefully placed Zhang Lexuan down and looked back at the Thunder Qilin.

At this time, it was still struggling to resist the raging sun.

"Sister Renxue, please protect my meridians."

After obtaining Qian Renxue's consent, Lin Chen's four spirit rings were revealed. This time, Lin Chen did not conceal the color of his spirit rings; the blood-red spirit ring representing 100,000 years of age was displayed.

Yellow, purple, and red!

Immediately afterwards, all four spirit rings exploded, Lin Chen's hair turned black again, and violent energy instantly swept over his entire body.

Despite Qian Renxue protecting his meridians, Lin Chen still felt as if his body was about to be torn apart, even after he had tried his best to channel the energy of his soul ring into the Seven Kill Sword.

Weapon-type Martial Souls and Beast-type Martial Souls are ultimately two different categories of Martial Souls. Lin Chen had previously conducted research on Soul Ring Detonation and discovered that Weapon-type Martial Soul Masters could channel the energy of the Soul Ring into the Weapon-type Martial Soul during the detonation process, instead of necessarily having to bear the energy of the Soul Ring with their own body like Tang Hao did. Furthermore, the Clear Sky Hammer requires the Soul Master to use their own strength to unleash its powerful force; while the Seven Kill Sword is known for its attack power, which is hidden within the Martial Soul itself. As long as the user can withstand the pressure, they can inject the energy of the Soul Ring into the Seven Kill Sword, thereby unleashing an attack far exceeding their own level.

The fighting style of a Beast Soul Master is Soul Possession, which grants them the abilities of their Soul. If they want to detonate their Soul Rings, they can only rely on their physical strength to withstand the energy generated by the detonation. The physical requirements are much higher than those for Weapon Soul Masters. Therefore, almost no Beast Soul Master can perform the Soul Ring Detonation.

As for the original spirit, it goes without saying that all the energy of the spirit rings is gathered in one place. For example, if Huo Yuhao were to blow up his million-year spirit ring, he would definitely go blind.

With his Seven Kills Domain fully activated and amplification maximized, carrying terrifying attack power, Lin Chen fearlessly charged towards the Thunder Qilin.

"Bang!" The Seven Kill Sword collided violently with the lightning shield. In just a few seconds, the Thunder Qilin could not withstand the protection and was pierced into its body by Lin Chen using the Seven Kill Sword.

As luck would have it, Lin Chen had aimed carefully before launching his attack, and the Seven Kill Sword pierced right into his heart.

Feeling the excruciating pain and the life force being violently drained by the blow, the Thunder Qilin roared in anger. At the same time, its entire body struggled and crackled with electricity. With its powerful strength, it threw Lin Chen away and slammed him heavily to the ground.

Lin Chen was thrown to the ground, but the Seven Kill Sword was still stuck in the Thunder Qilin's body.

But Lin Chen wouldn't give up so easily. A golden light flashed in his hand, and the Angelic Holy Sword appeared!

Qian Renxue possessed her body again and suddenly threw the Angelic Holy Sword, striking the tip of the Seven Kill Sword.

The Angelic Holy Sword, weighing 36,000 jin, was not easy to withstand. After receiving the power of the Angelic Holy Sword, the Seven Kill Sword instantly pierced through the Thunder Qilin's body, while the Angelic Holy Sword went straight into the Thunder Qilin's body, with its tip emerging from its spine.

The Thunder Kirin had already lost its life the moment the Seven Kill Sword pierced its body, and now it crashed heavily to the ground, raising a lot of dust.

Looking at the dead Thunder Qilin, Lin Chen sat down on the ground with a sigh of relief, panting heavily, his internal energy in disarray.

Picking up Zhang Lexuan, Lin Chen flew back to the cave with the Seven Kill Sword.

Gently setting Zhang Lexuan down, Lin Chen looked at the Sacred Soul Grass and couldn't help but sigh, "For you, we almost lost our lives here today."

"This time, consider it a favor I owe you," Qian Renxue said, after all, it was she who asked Lin Chen to come and get the Sacred Soul Grass.

"It's nothing. If we're talking about owing favors, I owe Sister Renxue far too many times." Lin Chen smiled, then asked, "Sister Renxue, how long will it take you to absorb this Sacred Soul Grass?"

"Two days."

"Then you should absorb it first," Lin Chen said.

Qian Renxue didn't hesitate either, immediately emerging from Lin Chen's spiritual sea to absorb the Sacred Soul Grass and strengthen her divine soul.

Lin Chen went outside and dragged the Thunder Qilin, which was beyond dead, back into the cave.

Within the Thunder Qilin's body, a soul bone condensed, which appeared to be the soul bone of its left arm.

A 100,000-year soul ring won't easily dissipate, so Lin Chen plans to wait until Zhang Lexuan wakes up before deciding on the ownership of the soul bone.

Does Lin Chen want this soul bone? Of course he does, given its age limit. But besides whether he can absorb it, he also needs to consider Zhang Lexuan's opinion. Lexuan has made the greatest contribution in this battle. Without her, even if Lin Chen and Qian Renxue could defeat this Thunder Qilin, they would have paid a heavy price.

Lin Chen stared at the 100,000-year soul ring floating in the air, remaining silent for a long time, lost in thought.

Qian Renxue's absorption speed was faster than expected, and she absorbed the Sacred Soul Grass in just one day.

"If you want to absorb this spirit ring, I can seal some of its energy for you first, and then unseal it once your physical condition catches up. As for the spirit bone, it's naturally better for a spirit master who has absorbed a spirit ring to absorb it," Qian Renxue said, looking at Lin Chen as he examined the spirit ring. Having absorbed the Sacred Soul Grass, her soul had been strengthened considerably, and she was already able to use some of her former abilities.

Lin Chen shook his head and refused, saying, "Let's wait for Sister Le Xuan to wake up and see what she thinks. Without her, we might not be able to win."

"Ha, you're quite patient."

Without saying anything more, Qian Renxue transformed into a golden light and returned to Lin Chen's spiritual sea.

A day later, Zhang Lexuan slowly woke up. During this time, Lin Chen kept his Life Domain active, injecting the life force of the Star Dou Great Forest into Zhang Lexuan's body.

"Sister Lexuan, you're awake!"
