Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect - Sharingan Intercepts Tianmeng

Chapter 54: 54% chance of winning—what's the difference between that and suicide? (Please continue reading)

Jin Chuan's teacher had told him to be careful since the time he met him. To this end, his teacher even designed an accident to let the then very weak Jin Chuan know that if he was not careful, he might lose his life if he failed even once.

Having experienced the near-death experience due to his carelessness, Jin Chuan became extremely cautious, avoiding fighting whenever possible and avoiding conflicts with Soul Masters.

For a Soul Master like him who needs blood to cultivate, the blood of Soul Beasts is acceptable, but the blood of Soul Masters is even better. Both of these can help him quickly improve his cultivation. However, he ultimately chose to target only ordinary civilians.

Although this would slow down his cultivation progress as much as other evil soul masters, it was safer and more secure. Ordinary people had no power to resist soul masters, so he could say he didn't have to worry about being killed.

Even so, Jin Chuan chose to release his blood poison into the well, poisoning all the people before harvesting the fruit, in order to prevent any accidents from happening.

Even though he's already level 59, he still chose the common people who have plenty of food rather than some Soul Masters with a little more strength.

His master once said that if he wanted to kill a Soul Master, he should wait until after the sixth ring; if he wanted to kill some powerful Soul Masters, he should wait until after the seventh or eighth ring. When he encountered an enemy he felt he couldn't defeat, he should either beg for mercy or run away. Before he became strong, only by being careful and cautious could he have a chance to live to become a Title Douluo.

Those arrogant evil spirit masters are often the main targets of certain forces, especially those evil spirit masters who are not very strong but have a bad reputation. Killing them is not only safe, but can also bring fame. This is something that some big forces like to do after they have done something wrong.

Therefore, it's best to keep a low profile if possible. If the odds of winning a battle aren't 98%, it's best to avoid that battle altogether.

Jin Chuan followed his teacher's instructions exactly as they were written, treating them as inviolable rules. Otherwise, he wouldn't have knelt down and begged for mercy the moment he saw Xiao Qiang.

But when he learned that Xiao Qiang's soul power level was only level 48, he almost collapsed. He was a level 59 soul master who could still challenge evil soul masters who were above his level. He could even kill a six-ring soul emperor.

In other words, his apparent strength is eleven levels higher than Xiao Qiang's, but in terms of actual combat power, he is probably twenty levels higher than Xiao Qiang.

Then he knelt down and kowtowed to someone whose strength was far inferior to his own, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Normally, if Jin Chuan encountered a level 48 Soul Master, he would covet their blood, but he wouldn't necessarily make a move.

But this time, having been humiliated, and with his level 59 soul rings (two yellow, two purple, and one black), an extra ten-thousand-year soul ring, and eleven levels of soul power compared to Xiao Qiang, coupled with the fact that evil soul masters can challenge beyond their limits, Jin Chuan, who estimated his chances of winning this time to be 98%, was not so good-tempered.

"Boy, why aren't you kneeling down right now? Do you want me to slowly torture you to death?"

Believing himself to have the upper hand in every way, Jin Chuan gradually revealed the sinister aura befitting an evil soul master.

This time, he not only wanted to torture and kill Xiao Qiang, but also wanted to find an outlet for the anger he had been suffering all along.

He could tolerate those who were clearly stronger than him, but this person, who was obviously no match for him, dared to provoke him. He was no longer going to tolerate it.

"You just said it was your first time doing this, but now it doesn't seem like it."

"You dare to talk back to what you just said!" Jin Chuan roared in anger, and then his fifth spirit ring lit up, revealing his only ten-thousand-year spirit skill, Blood Sea Raging Waves.

The Blood Sea Rage Soul Skill isn't particularly powerful, but once you're touched by the blood released over a large area by the Blood Sea Rage Soul Skill, Jin Chuan can use his third soul skill, Blood Poison, and his fourth soul skill, Blood Explosion. Under these two soul skills, even a six-ring Soul Emperor would easily perish.

After all, he is both a poison master and an evil master, so it would be very difficult to defeat him unless you are at least twenty levels higher.

However, Xiao Qiang was clearly an exception. When he saw the blood pool gradually boiling and turning into a small giant wave of blood, Xiao Qiang drew his bow and nocked an arrow, sealing the soul skill "Freezing Ray" from his left hand's palm bone into the arrow and firing it. At the same time, the disguised fourth soul ring lit up and was fired along with Xiao Qiang's arrow.

The moment Xiao Qiang's arrow touched the sea of ​​blood, the sea of ​​blood froze rapidly with the arrow as its center. The smile on Jin Chuan's face, which had been arrogant just moments before, gradually froze along with the sea of ​​blood.

However, it only froze for a short while. Looking at the purple soul ring that had just merged into the arrow and flown out with it, Jin Chuan understood what had happened.

"Hmph, a soul skill like the Purple Spirit Bow that uses soul rings as arrows to increase power? Too bad, you only have three soul rings left, you only have three arrows left. You are destined to be tortured to death by me to vent my hatred."

"yes."

Xiao Qiang smiled slightly, and then Jin Chuan saw Xiao Qiang's other purple soul ring merge into the arrow. Xiao Qiang shot the arrow into the sky, and then the arrow shattered, forming tens of thousands of ice shards. Those ice shards gradually condensed in the air and formed one arrow after another, falling downwards at an extremely fast speed.

Jin Chuan's expression changed drastically in an instant. He quickly used his second soul skill, Blood Wall, and at the same time used his third soul skill, Blood Explosion, to prevent himself from being riddled with arrows.

Protected by the wall of blood, the dense barrage of arrows did not riddle him with holes, but only inflicted some injuries.

Before Jin Chuan could catch his breath, an extremely fast ice arrow shot towards him. He managed to block some of the damage with the help of his second soul skill, Snow Wall, but the arrow still pierced through his left shoulder.

"Hmph, not bad, a four-ring Soul Master actually managed to injure me. Too bad, you only have one arrow left. So, here's the question: do you think your hundred-year Soul Skill can kill me with a single arrow?"

Jin Chuan licked his lips, his cold eyes fixed on Xiao Qiang. He now had the mindset of a cat toying with a mouse, after all, in his eyes, Xiao Qiang only had one arrow left.

Xiao Qiang looked at Jin Chuan, and then, under his gaze, used a simulated soul skill to turn the last yellow soul ring into an ice arrow that pierced towards himself. The next second, four more soul rings appeared, two yellow and two purple.

"My first soul skill, Arrow of Expulsion, can expel all abnormal statuses from the body. Guess how many times I can use this skill?"

"You son of a bitch!"

"Alright, you're about to die."

In Jin Chuan's eyes, Xiao Qiang merged another purple soul ring into his arrow, and the way it was aimed at him made him know that being hit by this arrow would probably mean death.

As the arrow drew closer, he knew he was doomed this time.

Fortunately, an old man suddenly appeared in front of him and grabbed the ice arrow that Xiao Qiang had shot.

"Master, I..."

Before Jin Chuan could say anything, the old man slapped him away.

"You beast! You've actually fallen and become an evil spirit master!"

Jin Chuan: "???" Wait, wasn't it you who led me to become an evil spirit master? This…

Jin Chuan felt like his brain wasn't quite working properly.
