Douluo Dragon King: Light and Darkness, Starting with the Punishment of Light

On the enormous soul-guided screen, light and shadow coalesced.

A huge figure slowly emerged.

Its long, golden fur, as if woven from sunlight, floats gently in the breeze of the virtual world.

It stands atop a mountain, looking down at everything below.

Those amber-colored beastly eyes revealed an arrogant disdain for the world.

Roar! ! !

A roar, and you could almost feel the tremor through the screen.

On the screen, the surrounding spirit images scattered and fled, trembling in fear.

This is the spirit of an indomitable soul.

Zhou Wei stared, his eyes wide with disbelief.

"This is..." he murmured.

The staff operated it a few times, and the screen switched.

A special transparent device appeared on the screen, made entirely of high-strength soul-guiding material and transparent on all four sides.

The Radiant Lion Mastiff was locked in the device, yet it showed none of the dejection of a prisoner.

It stood tall in the cage, its long golden fur standing on end, its beastly eyes coldly scanning the staff outside the cage.

When the camera was pointed at it, it lunged at the cage wall with another roar, causing the device to tremble slightly.

"This is the indomitable spirit."

The staff member's tone carried a hint of awe.

"Although the Bright Lion Mastiff has only nine hundred years of cultivation, it is extremely irritable and difficult to tame, even for a Soul Master with strong mental power."

Several Soul Masters had tried it before, and all of them suffered a backlash from it during the mental connection, ranging from minor mental damage to being unconscious for several days.

He turned to Zhou Wei, his expression serious: "I hope Young Master Zhou Wei will give this a serious consideration."

With your talent, you could easily choose a more docile thousand-year-old spirit; there's no need to take this risk.

Leng Yaozhu didn't say anything, but just glanced at Zhou Wei.

Those ruby-like eyes held a hint of inquiry, and also a hint of worry.

Zhou Wei met her gaze.

He looked down at Dahl on his shoulder.

The emerald green mantis was staring intently at the Radiant Lion Mastiff on the screen, its scythe swaying gently...

It's like saying: That's it?

Zhou Wei's lips twitched slightly.

He then looked at Sarod beside him.

The dark purple mantis remained standing silently, its scarlet eyes coldly sweeping over the lion-mastiff on the screen, and then... turning its head away.

That expression probably translates to: bored.

Zhou Wei took a deep breath.

These two ancestors of mine really have high standards.

That makes sense, though.

It's no wonder that someone capable of fighting Puni would look down on a mere nine-hundred-year-old soul.

But the Bright Lion Mastiff is indeed the most suitable choice.

Golden-haired lion-mastiff bloodline, immune to bloodline suppression, nascent form of dominating the domain, mutated light attribute...

Each item seems tailor-made for Dahl.

As for its unruly nature?

Three punches to wake it from its dream!

Zhou Wei glanced at the little creature on his shoulder that was swinging a sickle.

Ha ha.

"Sister." Zhou Wei turned his head and met Leng Yaozhu's gaze. "I'm ready."

Leng Yaozhu frowned slightly: "Xiao Wei, are you sure?"

"I'm sure." Zhou Wei nodded. "I think it will work."

Leng Yaozhu was silent for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay. Remember, if you feel unwell, be sure to tell us in advance."

Mental connections are not to be trifled with; if they backfire, the consequences are severe.

"understood."

Seeing this, the staff stopped trying to dissuade them and began working on the control panel.

A moment later, a special metal device slowly descended from the top of the room.

It was a meticulously designed mental connection helmet, more complex than the one used for testing mental strength before. The helmet was surrounded by rings of soul guide runes, emitting a faint blue light.

"Young Master Zhou, please have a seat," a staff member gestured.

Zhou Wei sat down in the chair, and the metal helmet slowly descended, covering his head.

A faint buzzing sound came from the inside of the helmet, and a cool, warm sensation seeped into his mind.

"The mental connection is about to be activated."

A staff member's voice came through, "You will enter a virtual space to have a spiritual connection with the Bright Lion Mastiff."

Remember, don't try to force it. If something feels wrong, we will disconnect immediately.

Zhou Wei nodded and closed his eyes.

hum! !

The world before my eyes suddenly changed.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in a virtual space.

The surrounding area is a lush forest, and overhead is a simulated blue sky and white clouds.

And directly in front.

The transparent device stood silently.

Inside the device, the Radiant Lion Mastiff was staring at him.

Those amber-colored beastly eyes revealed clear hostility and disdain.

It knows what this is.

Yet another reckless human, trying to turn me into a spirit.

That wretched brat!

Roar! ! !

The Brilliant Lion Mastiff lunged at the cage wall, making the device vibrate loudly.

Its long golden fur stood on end, and its body suddenly burst forth with dazzling light.

It was the aura of light, pure and intense, carrying an overwhelming and destructive power.

It's going to attack!

In that very instant.

A vibrant green figure suddenly appeared.

Dahl.

The tiny praying mantis had somehow appeared in front of Zhou Wei.

Compared to the behemoth hundreds of times its own size, its sixteen-centimeter body appeared so tiny.

But Dahl did not back down in the slightest.

It raised its sickle.

Sudden slash!!

The emerald light flashed by so quickly that the movement was almost invisible.

Blade Qi!!

A crescent-shaped emerald green beam shot out from the scythe, tearing through the air and slashing straight at the Radiant Lion Mastiff!

boom!

The roar of the Radiant Lion Mastiff abruptly ceased.

It hastily raised its front paws, trying to block the sudden attack.

The moment the blade energy collided with the lion's claw, it burst forth with dazzling light.

Then, the entire Radiant Lion-Mastiff flew backward and crashed hard into the transparent wall of the device!

Boom! ! !

The device vibrated violently.

The Brilliant Lion Mastiff slid down, its four paws bracing themselves against the ground to barely maintain their balance.

Its eyes, once filled with savagery, were now etched with disbelief.

It looked down at its front paws.

There, a shallow crack is slowly healing.

That attack just now almost broke through my defenses.

The Radiant Lion Mastiff raised its head and looked again at the small, emerald-green figure.

A low whimper escaped from the Bright Lion Mastiff's throat.

It didn't know what it was.

But its instincts told it.

We can't beat them.

Really can't beat it.

Under Leng Yaozhu's astonished gaze, and amidst the stunned stares of the surrounding staff.

The Radiant Lion-Mastiff that had just been roaring madly, trying to tear everything apart—

It lay down directly inside the cage.

Yes, I lay down.

Its four paws were curled up under its body, and its proud head was lowered, not daring to look at Dahl again.

And its long tail was wagging wildly.

The Brilliant Lion Mastiff cautiously raised its eyelids and stole a glance at Zhou Wei.

There was no longer a trace of arrogance or disdain in his eyes, only a look of ingratiation and flattery.

It's as if it's saying: Master, don't you think I'm cute?

Outside of virtual space.

Leng Yaozhu stared at the scene on the screen and fell silent.

"this……"

The staff member next to him had his mouth agape, big enough to fit an egg.

"This...this is the Light Lion Hound?! The indomitable spirit that inflicted such mental trauma on three Soul Masters?!"

No one answered him.

Everyone was stunned.

Zhou Wei opened his eyes, took off his helmet, and met Leng Yaozhu's complicated gaze.

He scratched his head and gave an innocent smile.

"Sister, it seems... it's quite well-behaved?"
