Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 256 Contra Qian Renxue

"Trying to run away? Dream on!"

Xiao Yu let out a cold shout, and his black soul power surged out instantly. He released the Netherworld God Domain, completely suppressing the Azure Bull Python's Slow Domain.

call out!

With a whooshing sound, Xiao Yu appeared in front of the Azure Bull Python.

The right leg bone skill of the 100,000-year-old Hades Dragon—Teleportation—is activated.

"Is it Xiao Wu's soul bone skill?"

In the rush, the Azure Bull Python had no time to discern the soul power fluctuations emanating from Xiao Yu's right leg soul bone.

In its view, since Xiao Yu had absorbed Xiao Wu's soul ring, he would naturally not let go of its soul bone. Moreover, teleportation was a natural skill of the Soft Bone Rabbit clan, so it naturally regarded Xiao Yu's teleportation as a Soft Bone Rabbit soul bone skill.

"Azure Bull Python, you are doomed to die today!"

Xiao Yu did not correct the Azure Bull Python's mistakes. He and the Azure Bull Python were not rivals who respected each other, so there was no need for Xiao Yu to answer the Azure Bull Python's questions one by one.

"Human, even in death, I will take you down with me!"

With nowhere else to turn, the Azure Bull Python roared and raised its enormous claw, which was no different from a dragon's claw, to grab at Xiao Yu.

Azure Sluggish Divine Claw!

The Azure Bull Python has another powerful skill. In addition to its strong attack, this strike also has a terrifying mind control effect. Once locked onto by the Azure Bull Python, one's six senses and physical abilities will be dulled tenfold.

But to Xiao Yu, this was just another clown's show-off.

The ten-thousand-year-old head bone activated, unleashing a spiritual power as vast as the ocean.

The Azure Bull Python felt a sharp pain in its mind. Having lost the battle of mental power, its body immediately suffered a backlash. A pain from the depths of its soul suddenly came, and its speed was slowed down by more than ten times. Its once lightning-fast dragon claws were now moving as slowly as a snail.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Annihilation of the Underworld!"

Xiao Yu's fifth spirit ring shone brightly, and the Hades Sword gleamed with cold light as he slashed at the Azure Bull Python's descending claws.

Swish!

A flash of blood appeared, followed by the heart-wrenching screams of the Azure Bull Python.

Its claws were actually chopped off by Xiao Yu, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

"Human, I will kill you! I will definitely kill you!"

The pain of losing a hand was unbearable even for the Azure Bull Python, a soul beast that had cultivated for over ten thousand years. It roared furiously, frantically channeling its soul power, and opened its blood-red maw, spewing out a dragon-shaped bolt of lightning containing terrifying thunder.

Azure Thunder of Annihilation!

This was another single-target attack from the Azure Bull Python. The violent power of thunder surged toward Xiao Yu, and crackling thunderclaps continuously exploded in the air.

"sucker Punch!"

Xiao Yu never took the Azure Bull Python seriously. His sixth spirit ring lit up again, and endless death rays surged down once more, colliding with the lightning power released by the Azure Bull Python. The death rays instantly shattered the Azure Bull Python's attack and landed on its body.

At the same time, two beams of gray-white light shot out from Xiao Yu's eyes.

The 100,000-year-old head bone skill, Death Gaze, is activated.

The beam of light, imbued with a terrifying mental attack, also struck the Azure Bull Python. The Azure Bull Python was as if struck by a heavy blow, and its huge bull head drooped limply, clearly no longer able to fight.

"Xue'er, deliver the final blow!"

At Xiao Yu's call, Qian Renxue, who had been waiting in the wings, made her move.

She was only a quasi-Soul Douluo after all, and in order to ensure a fatal blow, she used all her strength in an instant.

The fifth and seventh ten-thousand-year soul rings lit up simultaneously, the Angel Domain was released, and with the amplification of the Martial Soul True Body, the Holy Sword transformed from the fifth soul skill pierced the head of the Azure Bull Python in one fell swoop. This self-proclaimed king of the forest died, and a red soul ring rose from her massive corpse.

Thank you!

Qian Renxue did not absorb the Azure Bull Python's soul ring immediately, but instead thanked Xiao Yu.

In that situation, Xiao Yu had many ways to severely injure the Azure Bull Python and render it powerless to resist, but he chose to use the most perplexing mental attack in order to weaken the Azure Bull Python's lingering will contained within the 100,000-year-old soul ring.

The Azure Bull Python's cultivation level far surpasses that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Although Qian Renxue possesses the power of an angel, absorbing it would probably still require considerable effort. However, it suffered a severe mental blow at the last moment of its life, so the resistance for Qian Renxue to absorb this soul ring is much less now.

Xiao Yu chuckled: "We're practically family. Of course, if you really want to thank me, you can."

Xiao Yu suddenly moved closer to Qian Renxue and whispered something in her ear.

"Get lost, you filthy scoundrel!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's face immediately turned bright red. What kind of thoughts were going through this bastard's head that he actually made her...

"I'm going to absorb a spirit ring. Protect me!"

Annoyed, Qian Renxue stomped heavily on Xiao Yu's foot, not even glancing at him, and walked straight to the huge corpse of the Azure Bull Python, sitting cross-legged and circulating her soul power to draw the red soul ring onto herself.

Xiao Yu stood carefully beside Qian Renxue to protect her. Although he had made ample preparations beforehand, this was Qian Renxue's first time absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring, so he should be cautious.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened in the end. The remnant spirit of the Azure Bull Python, which had suffered a mental blow from Xiao Yu, became extremely weak. The mental shock released by the 100,000-year soul ring was nothing more than a drop in the ocean in front of Qian Renxue, who was protected by the divine sense of the angel.

Soon, Qian Renxue passed the most dangerous moment and began to wholeheartedly absorb and transform the energy contained in the soul ring.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye, and with Qian Renxue's delicate shout, the absorption of the Azure Bull Python's soul ring came to an end.

Eight spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, and red—quietly rose up and coiled around Qian Renxue in an orderly fashion, undulating rhythmically around her graceful body.

Level 86.

As Qian Renxue finished absorbing her soul rings, her true soul power level was revealed, directly leaping six levels to enter the late stage of Soul Douluo.

Although it sounds alarming, it makes sense upon closer examination. After all, Qian Renxue had already reached the bottleneck of level 80 back in the Underworld. With more than a year of soul power accumulation and the added benefit of a 100,000-year soul ring, such an achievement is to be expected.

At the same moment, a blood-red right arm bone slowly floated up from the corpse of the Azure Bull Python.

Left arm bone of a 100,000-year-old azure ox python!

A 100,000-year-old soul beast will definitely drop a soul bone that the killer does not have. Since Qian Renxue has already absorbed the right arm soul bone, the soul bone produced by the Azure Bull Python has changed from the right arm bone in the original work to the left arm bone.
