Battle Through the Heavens II: Three Phases of Peerless Power, One Soul and Four Bodies

The teacher leading the team from Di'ao Academy twitched at the corner of his mouth, his voice trembling slightly, "But, but..." The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he was blocked by the increasingly violent soul power pressure around Elder Xuan, and could only stand there in embarrassment.

Luo Ranyu and the others looked at Taotie Douluo with strange expressions, greatly shocked.

This is utterly shameless! From their perspective, it was clearly Ma Xiaotao who first activated the Phoenix Evil Flame, and Luo Qianba was only forced to erupt after enduring a fierce attack. In terms of the cause, it was clearly Ma Xiaotao who caused Luo Qianba to lose control. Yet this Shrek Academy's Super Douluo is twisting the truth and directly accusing Luo Qianba of being an evil soul master!

Luo Jiuxiao was so angry that his teeth were grinding together, his fists were clenched, and his whole body was agitated with anger. If Jin Zhongyue hadn't secretly held him back, he would have rushed up to argue with him long ago.

Just as the situation was on the verge of spiraling out of control, Luo Ranyu stepped forward, blocking the crowd, her tone calm yet resolute: "Senior, you can't just say things like that. What makes you think he's an evil soul master? Just because his martial soul has a slight dark attribute?"

His gaze was clear as he looked directly at Elder Xuan and continued, "If we follow this standard, wouldn't Sister Ma Xiaotao, Huang Heyun, and Dugu Shangshan from the Star Luo National Academy all be classified as evil soul masters? Besides, Senior said that Sister Xiaotao's martial soul has mutated, but I think her martial soul is originally the Evil Fire Phoenix. Since it was born that way, how can there be any talk of mutation?"

Luo Ranyu's emotions were usually calm, but at this moment she already had a somewhat bad impression of this Title Douluo.

Upon hearing this, Taotie Douluo was at a loss for words, because Ma Xiaotao's martial soul was indeed the Dark Phoenix. He had also made many efforts to help Ma Xiaotao suppress the evil fire. Of course, the evil fire was no match for him, a super Douluo. However, once he suppressed the dark power in Ma Xiaotao's body, the evil fire would soon spring up again like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, like the fires of hell that would never die out.

But in order to help Ma Xiaotao, he had no choice but to be arrogant this once.

Enraged, Taotie Douluo unleashed his soul power, sending a massive force blasting out and forcing Luo Ranyu and the others back.

Taking advantage of the crowd's unsteadiness, he flashed forward and instantly rushed in front of Jiang Peng, snatching Luo Qianba away.

"Watch out!" Seeing a powerful aura sweeping towards Luo Ranyu, Xue Qianlu reacted quickly, drawing her Aurora Sword instantly and standing in front of Luo Ranyu. The Light Shield activated, a pale golden barrier enveloping her, forcefully blocking the impact of Elder Xuan's overflowing soul power.

However, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. The shield shattered instantly, and Xue Qianluo was forced to retreat repeatedly, coughing up a mouthful of blood. "Sister Xue'er!" Luo Ranyu quickly stepped forward, supporting her, a trace of worry flashing in her eyes.

"Cough~ I'm fine." Xue Qianlu shook her head gently, her grip on the Aurora Sword still firm.

Noticing Luo Jiuxiao's angry expression and worried that he might act impulsively, Luo Ranyu did not back down and stepped forward to mediate:

"Senior, your purpose is to help this Senior Sister Xiaotao, right? However, I believe you know very well that even if Brother Luo is taken away, it will be of no use. In that case, why not let me give it a try!"

As Luo Ranyu spoke, the three phases of her martial spirit loomed behind her, each of the three different marks shining with a different light, looking quite mysterious.

Luo Ranyu opened his palm, the mark of the Shadow Phase floating in his hand, but he was somewhat flustered. He wasn't really confident, and all he could think was, "Jiuxiao, don't do anything foolish!" There was no other way, he'd just have to stall for time and give him some time to calm down.

Everyone was startled upon hearing this and looked at Luo Ranyu. Xi'er even grabbed Luo Ranyu's hand and said in a soft, trembling voice, "Brother Ranyu~"

Luo Ranyu looked at Xi'er with gentle eyes and comforted her not to worry about herself.

Taotie Douluo stared at Luo Ranyu with some surprise. As a level 98 Title Douluo, he didn't recognize the martial soul in front of him. Moreover, he didn't expect that someone would dare to say that they could help Ma Xiaotao. Even other Title Douluos wouldn't dare to say "let's give it a try".

Luo Ranyu didn't give him time to consider and said directly, "This Brother Luo's martial soul doesn't actually have any dark attributes. It's just that there's a deeply hidden dark aura within him. This dark aura makes him violent, and when he's in mortal danger, this power will suddenly erupt to protect him."

However, he now has almost no dark power left. As a Title Douluo, you should be able to sense that, right?

Upon hearing this, Taotie Douluo paused, glanced at Luo Qianba, and was astonished: Indeed, the dark and evil power within this kid was already contracting inwards, but...

Taotie Douluo then looked at Luo Ranyu and said, "Continue!"

Luo Ranyu glanced at Ma Xiaotao in Taotie Douluo's hand, then walked forward. Taotie Douluo didn't stop her. Luo Ranyu then placed her hand, which was floating with a shadow phase, on Ma Xiaotao's wrist, carefully sensing her condition. Everyone watched Luo Ranyu; some were worried, some were expectant. Luo Ranyu closed her eyes, her brows furrowed, and slowly said:

"This sister, her martial spirit let out a mournful cry towards me. The long-suppressed pain caused it to become chaotic. In its turmoil, it released evil fire with dark attributes, hoping to merge with her body and spirit. However, what it received was ruthless suppression. And this Senior Sister Xiaotao, in endless entanglement and pain, gradually lost control of herself."

As soon as she finished speaking, a wisp of black energy emanated from Ma Xiaotao's body and slowly flowed down Luo Ranyu's palm. Luo Ranyu's voice was somewhat deep, "This dark evil fire has long been unwilling to stay in this body. It both desperately wants to control Senior's body and yearns to break free and leave."

Immediately afterward, to everyone's horror, streams of black energy flowed from Ma Xiaotao's body and merged into Luo Ranyu's body. After a while, Luo Ranyu released her hand, eased her breathing, and the black energy gradually dissipated. The evil fire on Ma Xiaotao's body also visibly dissipated considerably.

At this moment, Taotie Douluo's expression was solemn, and he was deeply shocked.

But he quickly realized what was happening and first sensed Ma Xiaotao's aura. He soon discovered that the dark aura around Ma Xiaotao had diminished by about half, and the evil fire mark on her forehead had also faded somewhat. Xuanzi took a deep look at Luo Ranyu, his heart filled with horror.

"This kid, actually? How is this possible? Even I have to use my soul power to control Xiao Tao's evil fire, but he actually sucked the evil fire out like that, and he himself doesn't seem to be affected at all!"

Perhaps he could help Xiao Tao completely resolve the Phoenix Evil Fire within her. Why hasn't such a genius appeared at Shrek Academy?

At this moment, Luo Ranyu was equally shocked. Looking at the black energy in her hand, the intense evil fire and black energy made Luo Ranyu feel that her cultivation was actually trending towards breaking through to level 39, very close.

Luo Ranyu glanced at Ma Xiaotao, whose complexion had improved somewhat, and thought to herself, "Isn't this evil fire supposed to be sucked out? Why didn't this old guy help her suck it out? And he claims to be a high-ranking member of Shrek Academy...? Seriously!"

Thinking this to herself, Luo Ranyu was completely unaware of the crux of the problem and remained extremely confident in the strength of the so-called Title Douluo.

"Seniors, as you've seen, all you need to do is help her draw out the evil fire. Shrek Academy has a wealth of resources; I think this should be easy for you! In that case, there's nothing to worry about. You can handle it yourselves!"
