Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 91 The Holy Beast of Light

Beneath a century-old giant tree, Qian Renxue slept peacefully, while Nan Feihuang rested with his eyes closed.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and the leaves rustled, making a series of "shush-shush" sounds.

This was originally a very normal phenomenon, but it caused Nan Feihuang, who was resting with his eyes closed, and Qian Renxue, who was sleeping, to open their eyes at the same time.

"Killing intent!"

One of them was a high-level Soul Master, and the other was a Warrior General. They were both very sensitive to things like killing intent.

As night fell, a shadow darted out from directly above the trees. Nan Feihuang swung his halberd and threw it upwards, simultaneously scooping up Qian Renxue beside him and leaping several times to create some distance between himself and the creature.

He was extremely cautious and did not believe that his halberd could repel the attackers with a single blow. After all, even though he had left the very center of the forest, he was still deep in the forest and was likely to encounter a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.

Nan Feihuang's soul power is only at the Soul Venerable level. No matter how confident he is, he doesn't think he can fight against a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast right now.

Sure enough, even though the Fangtian Halberd had amazing attack power, it only managed to block the thing for a short time. With a "ding", the Fangtian Halberd spun and fell, embedding itself in the soil.

Nan Feihuang mentally withdrew his martial spirit, then summoned it again, warily surveying his surroundings. "Sister Xue, be careful. That thing was fast; I wonder what it was?"

"There!" Qian Renxue closed her eyes and sensed it, then opened her palm, and a golden light shone from her palm, illuminating the place she was pointing to.

After two days of treatment, although her skills were not fully restored, she was able to exert about 10% or 20% of them.

Looking in the direction of the light, it was a golden wolf-shaped soul beast. Its appearance was somewhat similar to that of a common snow wolf, but it did not have the cold feeling of ice attribute at all. Instead, it shone brightly.

"A Holy Beast of Light!!!" Qian Renxue exclaimed in shock, "Damn it, how could we encounter this guy at a time like this?"

"Sister Xue, do you know this kind of soul beast? Judging from the name, it seems to be a soul beast with the holy attribute?" Nan Feihuang asked. He remembered that Qin Ming's eighth soul ring in the anime came from a fire spirit holy beast, which had both fire and holy attributes.

This Light Spirit Beast sounds like a variant of the Fire Spirit Beast.

Qian Renxue nodded. "Yes, these are soul beasts with the attributes of light and holiness. This one looks to have a cultivation of 20,000 years. Feihuang, you must be careful. Soul beasts that can be called holy beasts are all top-tier in their level."

Nan Feihuang was somewhat puzzled. "Sister Xue, I remember reading in the soul beast books that soul beasts with the holy attribute are all very kind. How come this guy is so fierce?"

"There are always exceptions. There are benevolent dark-attribute soul beasts, just as there are evil ones among the light and the holy. Fei Huang, you can't be deceived by appearances. The Light Spirit Beast may seem holy, but it is actually extremely greedy and domineering. It likes to devour soul beasts or humans of the same attribute to nourish itself. Its appearance now must be because it has its eye on me and wants to devour me." Qian Renxue was very certain. After all, in the entire Douluo Continent, when it comes to the holy attribute, what can surpass her family's six-winged angel?

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the Radiant Beast charged toward them at an incredible speed.

Nan Feihuang raised his halberd to block Qian Renxue, but in just one exchange, he was knocked away by the impact of the Light Spirit Beast. While flying backward, Nan Feihuang planted his halberd in the ground to forcibly stabilize himself.

A 20,000-year-old soul beast's cultivation level has surpassed that of a Soul Emperor. Moreover, at the same cultivation level, most soul beasts are stronger than soul masters. Unless a soul beast possesses a god-level martial soul like the Six-Winged Angel, such as Qian Renxue, it is difficult to fight across levels.

Although Nan Feihuang's Fangtian Halberd could also do that, it was impossible for him to skip such a large step from Soul Venerable to Soul Emperor.

He is confident that he can fight against a soul beast that is seven or eight thousand years old, but once ten thousand years have passed, he will have to reconsider. Not to mention that this guy in front of him has lived for twenty thousand years.

Nan Feihuang was already mentally prepared; if things got really bad, he would have no choice but to summon Red Hare to instantly kill the Light Spirit Beast.

Just as the Holy Beast of Light's claws was about to kill Qian Renxue, Fei Huang's second soul ring immediately lit up.

"Second Soul Skill, Eight Gates Golden Lock!"

At this moment, Nan Feihuang disregarded Lan Xue's previous instructions and opened all eight gates to restrict the Light Spirit Beast.

Rest, life, block, injury, scenery, death, shock, open!

Eight large characters appeared in the air, forming the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation. Because the cultivation level of the Light Spirit Beast was much higher than that of Nan Feihuang, the Eight Gates Golden Lock could not stop it, but could only reduce its speed.

Upon seeing this, Qian Renxue forcibly possessed her martial spirit, spread her angel wings, and flew to Nan Feihuang's side.

She tried to condense an angelic light blade, but she couldn't use much of her soul power, and the light sword she condensed was vague and illusory.

Nan Feihuang asked worriedly, "Sister Xue, your health..."

"Feihuang, you alone are no match for this Light Spirit Beast. We can't worry about that now. Thanks to your care these past two days, my power has basically recovered to nearly 20%. If I were to disregard everything, I could force it to reach 30% or 40%, but I wouldn't be able to fight for long. I only have one chance, so you must buy me the opportunity to unleash my strongest sword strike and sever its head. Only then can we defeat it," Qian Renxue calmly commanded.

She has been the Crown Prince for many years, and no matter how critical the situation, she remains calm and composed even in the face of a collapsing mountain.

"Alright, I understand. Third Soul Skill: Berserker Golden Body; First Soul Skill: Crescent Slash!" Nan Feihuang's other two Soul Rings lit up simultaneously.

Using all three of his soul skills simultaneously consumes a huge amount of soul power, but the increase in combat power in a short period of time is also enormous.

The Berserker's Golden Body active state boosted all his attributes by 120%.

The Eight Golden Locks greatly restricted the movements of the Light Spirit Beast.

As for the Crescent Slash, as long as it is not swung out and the power is left in the halberd, then for a short time, the Fangtian Halberd's normal attacks will also become true injuries, which can ignore the powerful physique of the 20,000-year-old soul beast.

Nan Feihuang then stepped onto the Big Dipper Immortal Tracks, wielding a long halberd with one hand, and used the Eighteen Thrusting Techniques of One Hand to directly confront the Light Spirit Sacred Beast.

The halberd and claws clashed repeatedly, sparks flying through the forest. Nan Feihuang's ghostly body allowed him to exchange wounds for wounds, growing stronger with each battle, and for a time he actually managed to block the attack of the Radiant Beast.

"Well done!" Qian Renxue praised as she gathered her strength. She hadn't expected Nan Feihuang to be so good at combat; it wasn't just his high cultivation level.

At this moment, the actual combat power of using all three soul skills simultaneously is even comparable to that of a Soul King.
