Douluo: The Holy Radiance of the Dragon King

"Stop using reverse psychology. What's a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear? I'm not afraid of taking on two at once! Awooo!"

The Heavenly Winged Tiger accepted Feng Zaixing's challenge and then said, "However, your soul power is too weak, so I can only attack once."

"The methods that Xu family brat is going to use will also drain your energy. What will you use to deal with the mother bear then?"

"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is exhausted, we attack. We'll wear them down slowly. No one will die at the Ascension Platform, so what am I afraid of?" Feng Zaixing's face remained calm.

"Awoo, this is interesting." The Heavenly Winged Tiger seemed to be deep in thought.

After agreeing on the details, Feng Zaixing said to Xu Miao, "Brother Xu, I'm ready. We can begin at any time."

"good!"

Xu Miao readily agreed, and the two of them stepped forward together, voluntarily entering the territory of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

Xuanming Zhen was activated, and the shockwave in the form of a black aura spread out, sweeping towards the two bears.

"Roar~"

The two bears were enraged. They roared and charged forward, leaving deep crater footprints in the ground with their enormous bodies, which shook the earth.

"The Black Tortoise Awakens."

Xu Miao remained expressionless and made a peculiar move. The Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield he was holding under his hand underwent another transformation. A black snake appeared on the shield's surface, and a surging black wave of energy rose from the ground.

The moment the two bears rushed within twenty meters of the two, the three purple soul rings under Xu Miao's feet shone brightly and strangely merged into one soul ring, a black soul ring symbolizing a ten-thousand-year soul skill.

"Divine Beast Talent, Soul Ring Combination, Xuanwu Roar!" Xu Miao's face turned deathly pale as he gritted his teeth and uttered the words with difficulty.

"Roar~" The aura of a savage ancient beast suddenly rose up. Xu Miao threw the Xuanwu Shield with force. The shield swelled in the air and emitted a series of desolate sound waves.

In an instant, the two dark gold dinosaur bears showed signs of pain and stopped charging.

"Ultimate Fire, Instantly Slicing Through the Air!"

"The secret method of the original body, burning blood!"

"Innate Domain, Sacred Body!"

In that instant, Feng Zaixing lit up his first soul ring, and his body shot out like an arrow, with wildfire bursting out from his body, like a blazing sun, and his skin steaming with crimson blood.

Burning blood to gain greater explosive power is the Body Sect's life-or-death technique.

At the same time, the innate domain of the Holy Body state erupted, and golden ripples spread out for tens of meters.

Instantly, Feng Zaixing's perception of the environment was greatly enhanced, his physical attack and defense, strength, and recovery ability were greatly improved, all attributes increased by 50%, and at the same time, he repelled all negative energy and status within the domain.

Apart from his external soul bone and divine energy, Feng Zaixing held nothing back, charging headlong into the dark gold dinosaur bear with its thousand-year cultivation.

"Awooo!"

In the nick of time, the Heavenly Winged Tiger appeared behind Feng Zaixing, its outstretched wings blotting out the sky, its amber pupils revealing an aura of dominance and the excitement of hunting its prey, its Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear? Be my delicious meal!

Outside the Spirit Pagoda, the four masters and the Long brothers stood up in unison, their eyes fixed on the screen, watching Feng Zaixing, whose fate could be described as "like an egg hitting a rock."

"Bang—!"

The next second, a loud bang came from the primary spirit ascension platform, as if a small fixed-position soul-guided shell had detonated on the battlefield. Rolling fire waves covered an area of ​​several meters in radius. The mother bear, who was on the edge of the explosion, was sent flying on the spot, and a large patch of fur on her chest burned to ashes.

At the epicenter of the explosion, the behemoth let out a heart-wrenching scream, which quickly ceased.

"Did it work?"

Xu Miao, who had retrieved the Xuanwu Shield, knelt on one knee, his face ashen, staring at the core of the battlefield. He could vaguely hear the sounds of sharp metal weapons and beast flesh being cut.

Seconds later, a small figure covered in blood flew out of the flames; it was Feng Zaixing.

Han Tianyi and the others' gazes sharpened. Of the eight short swords Feng Zaixing was holding, only the hilt remained. His armor was tattered, and shredded pieces of armor were embedded in his flesh. He was covered in blood, as if he had just escaped from hell.

"Alright, all done!"

Feng Zaixing's skin was cracked in large patches, but he seemed not to care at all. He straightened his clothes and stood up again with a bright and sunny smile.

The innate domain spread, and the sacred body greedily absorbed the primordial energy of heaven and earth to heal its wounds and restore its soul power.

"Today I've finally learned what a peerless genius is."

Xu Miao smiled bitterly. The innate domain and the terrifying soul spirit both represented unparalleled talent. His opponent was redefining his understanding of genius.

An irregular fire pit appeared on the ground. The giant bear, which had been full of vigor not long ago, had lost its imposing manner and was lying at the bottom of the pit convulsing, clearly not going to live.

Upon closer inspection, half of the bear's enormous head was smashed, as if it had been crushed by a tiger's claws. Five short swords were stuck in the remaining half, with one also embedded in its neck and one in each of its left and right chests.

In addition, a large five-claw-shaped hole was opened in its chest, and red, white and green dyes flowed out, making it look like a large dye shop.

"Bang!"

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear shattered, and a surge of spiritual energy flew out of the fire pit, merging into the soul ring under Feng Zaixing's feet.

Within the sea of ​​spirit, the Heavenly Winged Tiger squinted as it accepted the spoils of victory, smacked its lips, and said:

"Not bad, kid. Keep it up! I love fighting."

"Don't worry, you'll have your chance to make a move later."

After calming down the hero, Feng Zaixing smiled at Xu Miao and waved his hand, saying, "I'm ashamed to say that I only managed to kill it using its spirit and weapon."

Just now, the Heavenly Sacred Winged Tiger vividly demonstrated the Nine Yin Divine Claw and the Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Technique, smashing the skull with one claw and ripping open the belly with the other.

Then, Feng Zaixing, wielding the power of his first soul skill, imbued the surface of his short sword with blazing light and fire, unleashing all eight sword strikes simultaneously to kill his enemy.

The law of hunting soul beasts in Douluo Continent states that any soul beast can be killed with a single sword strike to the head. He unleashed five sword strikes.

The only drawback is that the appearance fee for the Heavenly Sacred Winged Tiger is too expensive. After this attack, Feng Zaixing's soul power was almost depleted, with less than 30% remaining.

Xu Miao forced a bitter smile: "This is nothing. You helped me when we were dealing with the Flame Lion King, but now... we have another problem to face."

"roar……"

A mournful wail came from afar. Dozens of meters away, the mother bear staggered to her feet, her eyes filled with a ferocious, bloody light, reflecting the tiny figures of the two people.

Feng Zaixing wiped the corners of his mouth, took out two new short swords, and said with a smug look on his face, "We've killed the males, what else is there to fear? Brother Xu holds the shield, and I, Zaixing, wield the sword. Who among our peers in the world can stand against us?"

"That sounds exciting. Of all the times I've been to the Ascension Platform, today was the most thrilling."

The pill took effect, and Xu Miao regained some of his strength. Suddenly, he felt a sense of clarity and his hoarse voice boomed with pride:

"Alright, let's fight it. I have a feeling that my mindset will be greatly improved after this."

"Alright! I'll go first this time!"

Feng Zaixing laughed heartily, the burning blood transforming into a continuous stream of power, enveloping Xu Miao in his innate domain and amplifying his teammates.

He and Aruheng had experimented with it, and the Holy Body's innate domain could also shield teammates from all negative energy and status effects, increasing all attributes by 20%.

"war!"

Feng Zaixing's body radiated golden light, his eyes were calm yet frenzied, and his charging figure was unstoppable. Although he was not tall, his aura was domineering and unparalleled.

"This battle might be unforgettable for me, I'll give it my all..."

Seeing Feng Zaixing fight so bravely, Xu Miao couldn't help but feel his blood boil. He roared and stepped forward with his shield.

"You big idiot, I'm a defensive-type Soul Master, and instead of attacking me, you're attacking my brothers! I'll kill you ten times over..."

At this moment, Xu Miao forgot that he was a defensive Soul Master and used the Xuanwu Shield to fight the giant beast head-on, without giving an inch.

Feng Zaixing also forgot that he was a powerful offensive Soul Master. He transformed into a nimble Blood Sword Assassin, moving around and attacking.

The two finely forged short swords seized their opportunities time and again, stabbing into the bloody wounds and releasing bright red blood.

"Roar~ Roar~!"

The giant bear was enraged, and its signature move, the Dark Gold Terror Claw, tore through the air and slammed down. Feng Zaixing did not parry the attack, and Xu Miao used offense as defense.

In a short time, the two humans and the bear fought dozens of rounds in a whirlwind fashion. Shields shattered and were reassembled, and short swords were replaced one after another. The two geniuses, who were of different ages, unleashed their most primal bestial instincts in the bloody battle, making it seem as if three ferocious soul beasts were locked in fierce combat.

Moments later, the battle was decided.

"I'm a renowned genius on the mainland, I can't possibly die after my little brother, blow him up!"

Xu Miao's soul power was completely exhausted, and he deliberately shattered the Xuanwu Shield. Dozens of shield pieces transformed into sharp blades in the air, aiming at the massive body of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, scattering like a shower of flowers before exploding with a deafening roar.

The identical explosion unleashed a tornado-like shockwave, splattering the mother bear's blood dozens of meters across the ground. Xu Miao's physical form was deemed to have exceeded its limits by the Spirit Pagoda's mechanical system and forcibly removed—

Both of them had already reached their limits according to the machine. After obtaining the Xuanming Sect Master's consent, Han Tianyi allowed Xu Miao to stay until now, and everyone was looking forward to seeing what they could achieve.

After Xu Miao left, Feng Zaixing looked at the mother bear, whose fighting strength was almost exhausted, and forced his nearly unconscious body forward with gritted teeth, his trembling hands gripping the hilt of his sword tightly.

"It's time! Instantaneous movement to break through the air!"

With a leap into the sky, Feng Zaixing's short sword pointed diagonally downwards at the mother bear's brow in mid-air, and his soul ring lit up at the critical moment.

The extreme fire erupted, and the last of the blood vapors rose. In mid-air, a crimson blood sun seemed to appear, crashing down towards the mother bear's side in an instant!

"boom!"

The Ascension Platform resounded with a third deafening explosion. Feng Zaixing used his powerful perception from his innate domain to find an excellent angle. His sword pierced through the mother bear's head, embedding itself deeply, and then slashed down to her thigh, engulfing most of the mother bear's body in flames.

Blood splattered on his face, the warm blood obscuring the jade-colored radiance of his sacred body and martial spirit. Feng Zaixing lost himself in the moment, took out a new short sword from his waist and stabbed it into the giant bear's body, his entire body almost submerged in the bear's blood.

"Look at the feet!"

With both swords wielded to their fullest extent, Feng Zaixing performed a backflip, shifting his weight around half a circle, and slammed his feet into the mother bear's body. Using the recoil, he flew sideways, dodging the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's final counterattack.

"Bang!"

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Feng Zaixing was thrown more than ten meters away onto the hard ground. The mother bear whimpered and collapsed with a thud. Her blood turned into kindling for the extreme fire, which ignited a wildfire.

"Sacred Body Martial Soul, Modified Mysterious Heaven Technique, Innate Domain... Rise up again..."

The heavy body and the tsunami-like pain made Feng Zaixing want to close his eyes, but he was unwilling to give up. He desperately shook his limbs, absorbed the energy of heaven and earth, and tried to stand up again.

On the 101st floor of the Spirit Pagoda, everyone stood up and stared intently at him. Many people had their hands sweating. Mu Ye was already standing next to Feng Zaixing's storage lid, ready to rescue him at any moment.

A moment later, Feng Zaixing dragged his heavy steps to the mother bear.

Without uttering a word, Feng Zaixing, his eyes unblinking, took out a tungsten steel hammer and swung it fiercely at the bear brain engulfed in blood and fire.

"Thump! Thump!"

With rhythmic tapping sounds, the mother bear's skull shattered like a watermelon, and she perished completely. Powerful spiritual energy surged into Feng Zaixing's body, announcing the arrival of victory.

"it's over……"

Relieved, Feng Zaixing fell backward like a collapsing mountain, his vision quickly going dark.

Before he closed his eyes, he vaguely saw two dark golden bones, one near and one far, gleaming brightly.

"Are those... soul bones...?"

As Feng Zaixing's last thought flashed through his mind, he closed his eyes in the Ascension Platform, and his body was guided away by the pillar of light.

All battles have come to an end.
