Douluo's Bone Transforms into a Divine Dragon

Chapter 260 Sacrifice, Soul

When Xiao Bai, Ning Rongrong, and the others, who were not far away, saw the suddenly appearing azure dragon soul, they all gaped in astonishment.

Ning Rongrong and the others were alright, because they had already seen it once when Gu Xuan explained the Soul Spirit Technique to them. However, the Azure Bull Python was only ten meters long (it could change its size at will), which was far less impressive than this hundred-meter-long dragon!

And what about Xiaobai? It could clearly sense the terrifying pressure of the Azure Bull Python, which belonged to a 100,000-year-old soul beast. This was definitely not an effect that any form of soul bone skill could produce.

But how could a spirit beast survive after becoming a human's spirit ring?

As for the fact that this 100,000-year-old soul beast was with Gu Xuan, she did think so when she first saw the Azure Bull Python. However, after careful observation, she discovered that although the Azure Bull Python possessed the aura and strength of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, it did not have a physical body at all and was in a completely soul state!

At this moment, Xiaobai was filled with curiosity and awe towards Gu Xuan. She couldn't imagine what this human had gone through to be so inhuman!

With his level 80 strength, he easily subdued the Demon Orca King, who was no match for him! He is shrouded in mystery.

Compared to Xiaobai's many thoughts, Ning Rongrong and the others had only one thought at this moment: excitement!

Having already received the Sea God's inheritance, Ning Rongrong originally thought she could surpass Gu Xuan, and perhaps in the future she could even become Gu Xuan's guide into the God Realm!

Unexpectedly, Gu Xuan's opportunities were no less than theirs. Although they were delighted and surprised when they heard Gu Xuan's story before, it was far less shocking than seeing it with their own eyes!

Now that Gu Xuan possesses such strength, leading them to climb to that level is no longer an ideal, but a reality.

After all, Ning Rongrong has already gained the favor of the Sea God under Gu Xuan's arrangement. The others may not be as good as Ning Rongrong, but they are definitely geniuses at the same level, so... their future will definitely be brilliant.

At this moment, Gu Xuan was naturally unaware of what everyone was thinking. He pressed his right dark gold claw against the forehead of the Demon Orca King, waiting for its response.

Although the Demon Orca King was powerless to resist, it refused to submit and instead sneered, "Human, I have fallen today, but if you want my submission, you'll have to wait until your next life!"

"Let's do it! Though I fear death, I also possess the pride of a sea spirit beast!"

At this point, the Demonic Orca King mocked the Azure Bull Python, "You, a powerful 100,000-year-old soul beast, actually submit to humans and serve as their dog! You are a disgrace to the soul beast race!"

Upon hearing the words of the Demon Orca King, the Azure Bull Python was not angry at all. Instead, it chuckled and said, "Hehe, utterly foolish. Such a shallow-minded person, Gu Xuan, I think you should reconsider whether you really need a soul that only knows how to be reckless and not how to think. Otherwise, it will affect your intelligence."

Upon hearing the Azure Bull Python's words, Gu Xuan's face darkened, and the Demonic Tiger Whale King only realized at this moment that the Azure Bull Python had no physical body and was in a soul state.

As the overlord of the deep sea, with a cultivation of up to 100,000 years, its intelligence is naturally not low, and it instantly captured the key information.

"A soul?"

"It seems you do have some brains after all," Gu Xuan said calmly. "Now you have two choices: one, death, which means I'll just kill you and absorb your soul ring and soul bone."

"Second, submit to me and become my soul. Not only will you not die, but you will also be able to live as a soul like Tianqing. As my strength increases, your strength will also evolve. In the future, when I break through that realm, you will gain immortality and follow me into that new level."

"You have five seconds to choose whether to live or die; it's all up to you."

Upon hearing Gu Xuan's words, the Demonic Orca King felt its beastly life and three senses shattered, experiencing a shock no less intense than that felt by the Azure Bull Python.

Before it could think any further, Gu Xuan had already started counting down: "Five...four..."

At this moment, the Demon Orca King had no doubt that Gu Xuan really only intended to give it five seconds. After five seconds, Gu Xuan's sharp claws would definitely pierce its skull, turning it into a soul ring and soul bone.

Moreover, the Demon Orca King is not stupid, and it is afraid of death. Gu Xuan has no need or reason to lie to it, because it is already a lamb to the slaughter.

With the Azure Bull Python as a ready-made example, the Demon Orca King made up his mind without hesitation.

"My lord... I submit! If you can make me like it, I am willing to serve you for all eternity." The Demon Orca King immediately said upon hearing Gu Xuan's chilling countdown.

Seemingly fearing that Gu Xuan might suspect it was plotting a last-ditch attack, the Demon Orca King continued to assure him, "I swear in the name of the Beast God!"

The Beast God is the same as the Dragon God and the ancestor of the Soul Beast race. Although the Dragon God is no longer here, if a Soul Beast swears an oath in the name of the Beast God, the effect is the same as if a human swore an oath using their Martial Soul.

If it breaks its oath, it will perish and its soul beast body will shatter.

Before Gu Xuan could answer, the Azure Bull Python sneered, "I thought you, you stinking fish, would have some different answer!"

Listening to the Azure Bull Python's words, the Demonic Tiger Whale King felt as if the other party already knew how he would choose, but soon the Demonic Tiger Whale King understood.

Yes, what other choice did I have besides taking Zhuangkang Avenue today?

Besides this option, all that's left is death and the annihilation of one's spiritual essence. Does it even have a choice? No!

"In that case, do as I say." Hearing the Demon Orca King's choice, Gu Xuan didn't say much and told the Demon Orca King how to fuse.

Meanwhile, the Azure Bull Python had already released its restraints and returned to Gu Xuan's spiritual sea.

Xiao Bai and Ning Rongrong, who were on the other side, also looked puzzled when they saw this scene.

"Not playing anymore?"

"That can't be right! Little White knows best what the Demon Orca King is! How could it possibly submit to a human?"

"But why did they stop fighting? Doesn't Gu Xuan need spirit rings?"

While Xiaobai and Ning Rongrong were still wondering, Gu Xuan was already sitting cross-legged on the head of the Demon Orca King, and the remaining Demon Orcas had already headed far into the deep sea under the Demon Orca King's command.

Without their king, their future will surely be even more difficult, and Gu Xuan is now unable to protect the Demon Orca King's clan.

However, before leaving, Gu Xuan gave the Demon Orca Clan a task: to avoid unnecessary killing and to unify the Sea Soul Beasts as much as possible.

This task is incredibly difficult for the Demon Orca clan these days, because Demon Orcas are inherently bloodthirsty, and almost everyone in the ocean is their enemy. Now that the Demon Orca King is no longer a threat, it's uncertain whether they can even survive!

Although the Demon Orca King was somewhat reluctant to see its subordinates wander, it had no choice. And to be honest, although it valued its clan, if it had to choose between immortality and its clan, it would definitely choose immortality.

That's how soul beasts are. Although it's hard to accept on the surface, they are sometimes more genuine than humans. They mean what they say, and if they say they want immortality, they mean it, instead of playing tricks on you or backstabbing you!

After the Demon Orca horde departed, Gu Xuan retracted the Eight Wings of the Sword Dragon and restored his soul power above the Demon Orca King's head. An hour later, he began absorbing the soul ring.

Ning Rongrong and the others, who had been waiting for an hour, couldn't wait to go and check on Gu Xuan's condition. When they discovered that Gu Xuan had actually started absorbing the soul ring, they were all dumbfounded.

"Sacrifice?! How is that possible?! A soul beast like the Demon Orca King would actually sacrifice itself?!" Xiao Bai expressed utter disbelief, and the entire fish life was shocked.

Ning Rongrong and the others were also delighted, and they weren't too surprised, as if this was just part of the normal script.

Xiao Bai couldn't help but ask Ning Rongrong, "Lady Rongrong, why aren't you surprised?"

Ning Rongrong smiled slightly, a smile appearing on her pretty face: "Because he is Brother Gu Xuan. As long as it's him, nothing is impossible."

P.S.: Typos will be corrected first and then fixed later.
