Douluo Dragon King: Martial Soul Spring and Autumn Cicada, Lord of Time

Chapter 125 The Young Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Killed Instantly with a Single Sword

"Brother Tao, I disagree. Our mission in this level is survival. Going on an adventure recklessly is not a good choice!"

Upon hearing Xie Xie's words, Tang Wulin shook his head, expressing his opposition.

After all, in his view, ensuring a higher score on the assessment was clearly more important. "Brother Tao, what do you think?"

Seeing a different voice in the group, Xie Xie turned to Zhao Tao and asked him respectfully.

"Although this stage is about survival, it might test more than just survival skills. After all, we haven't felt much pressure to survive!"

"There's a saying at Shrek Academy: 'Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre.' Perhaps, this trial isn't truly testing our survival skills, but rather our courage!"

"I agree with Xie Xie. Let's go take a look; perhaps that's where the assessment will focus."

For Tang Wulin and the others, this test was undoubtedly like the blind men and the elephant, but for Zhao Tao, it was undoubtedly an open-book exam.

With a slight smile, Zhao Tao gave the correct answer at that moment.

"I'll do as the captain says."

Upon hearing Zhao Tao's words, Xu Xiaoyan immediately voiced her support.

In her opinion, nothing is bigger than Captain!

"Yes, I agree. Let's go explore."

With a slight smile, Gu Yue nodded and accompanied Zhao Tao as they walked towards the valley.

They continued forward, passing through a thicket of trees, and entered the valley.

After the fierce battle between the two soul beasts, the Ten-Thousand-Year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the Emperor Auspicious Beast, the entire valley was left in ruins, with crisscrossing marks all over the ground.

Even the hardest granite, under the attack of the two soul beasts, was instantly pulverized like fragile tofu.

As for all plants and life, they were completely annihilated in the aftermath of this terrifying tragedy.

This is precisely the terrifying destructive power of a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

It is precisely because there are soul beasts of this level in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Therefore, even humans with battle armor dare not completely occupy the Star Dou Great Forest, fearing that if they are pushed too far, the humans will go on a killing spree in major cities.

"Look, Captain, what's that?"

Just then, Xu Xiaoyan suddenly pointed to a cave that appeared abruptly on the smooth stone wall in the distance.

The cave appeared very deep, with a diameter of about five meters, which matched the size of the imperial auspicious beast that everyone had seen earlier.

Could this be its lair?

"Yan, that's a great discovery! Let's go take a look!"

Upon hearing Xu Xiaoyan's words, Zhao Tao gave him a thumbs up and took the lead, guiding the Zero Class members up into the cave.

Upon arriving at the cave entrance, a faint scent of musk immediately wafted over, instantly invigorating the senses.

"Brother Tao, this...this might really be the cave of the Imperial Auspicious Beast!"

"I once read about this in my family's secret records; the legendary Three-Eyed Golden Lion tastes just like this!"

Upon smelling the odor from the cave, Xie Xie couldn't help but exclaim in surprise and swallow hard.

"Then let's take out its lair, let's go!"

Upon hearing Xie Xie's words, Zhao Tao waved his hand and led the five members of Class Zero into the cave without hesitation, continuing to venture deeper.

The cave was narrow at first, but as the group went deeper, it became more and more open, and even various gems appeared on the ground.

However, these priceless treasures failed to attract anyone's attention!

Because, deep within the cave, there was a golden figure—a young three-eyed golden lion!

However, it is only about 1.5 meters tall, and its most powerful third eye has not even been activated.

This also shows that its cultivation level is not actually strong; it is merely a three-eyed golden lion that has been around for a hundred years!

The three-eyed golden lion, though powerful, is only on the same level as the dark gold dinosaur.

Previously, during the initial riot period at the Spirit Ascension Platform, they successfully killed a century-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!

"I heard that top-tier soul beasts like the Three-Eyed Golden Lion always drop soul bones when killed. Brother Tao, we're rich!"

Looking at the three-eyed golden lion in the distance, Xie Xie's eyes flashed with shock and excitement, and he quickly spoke.

"superior!"

Without another word, Zhao Tao, wielding the Time Burial Sword, charged forward!

"A fleeting moment of beauty!"

The second soul ring on his body flashed, and three waves of light enveloped Zhao Tao, Gu Yue, and the young three-eyed golden lion in the distance, providing acceleration and deceleration respectively.

As Zhao Tao charged towards the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, his third spirit ring suddenly flashed!

"Future body!"

With the flashing of his spirit rings, Zhao Tao's aura instantly soared from Spirit Master to Spirit Emperor!

This time, he actually borrowed the power of two major realms beyond!

"Go to hell!"

Holding the Time Burial Sword, Zhao Tao showed no mercy as he faced the three-eyed golden lion before him, launching a fatal attack!

Faced with Zhao Tao's attack, the three-eyed golden lion did not back down. Instead, its body shone with golden light, and it leaped off the rock wall to pounce on Zhao Tao!

Those golden dragon claws, radiating a powerful aura and carrying terrifying might, attacked Zhao Tao!

However, under Zhao Tao's sword strike, the three-eyed golden lion was completely at a disadvantage!

After all, although the Three-Eyed Golden Lion is the most powerful soul beast, at most, this Three-Eyed Golden Lion's cultivation level is only a hundred years.

Although its combat power may be comparable to that of an ordinary ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, it is only equivalent to a Soul King.

At this moment, Zhao Tao's realm and power had already been raised to the Soul Emperor level, coupled with his powerful Spring and Autumn Cicada Martial Soul and his ultimate combat experience.

How could a mere hundred-year-old Three-Eyed Golden Lion possibly be a match for Zhao Tao's sword?

With a dazzling silver sword light, Zhao Tao severed the arms of the three-eyed golden lion with a single sword strike!

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Tao's Time Burial Sword showed no mercy as it slashed at the body of the three-eyed golden lion!

Faced with this life-threatening sword strike, a golden halo appeared on the surface of the three-eyed golden lion's body, attempting to defend itself.

However, in the face of Zhao Tao's Time Burial Sword, all defenses were in vain!

As Zhao Tao uttered his command, powerful bursts of time energy erupted from the Time Burial Sword in his hand!

The powerful force of time raged and instantly eroded the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's defenses!

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Tao's Time Burial Sword continued forward, mercilessly slashing the neck of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion!

Click!

With a crisp sound, the three-eyed golden lion's head was separated from its body in an instant, and blood splattered everywhere!

The severed head spun around in the cave several times before slowly coming to a stop, while the headless body fell heavily to the ground with a dull thud.

However, unlike the scene in the Ascension Platform, the three-eyed golden lion did not turn into starlight and dissipate after it was killed.

Instead, a yellow hundred-year soul ring floated above its corpse, and at the same time, a brilliant golden light emanated from the head of the three-eyed golden lion that had rolled to the side!
