Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear turned its head and recognized the boy in front of it as the one who had disappeared with its sworn brother.

Moreover, it sensed the aura of its sworn brother from that bright red sixth spirit ring.

It knew all too well that its sworn brother had been hunted down and killed by the human before it.

"You wretched human, I'll kill you!" The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared, unleashing one of its ultimate moves, the Sky-Tearing Claw, its murderous claws reaching out towards Tianlin.

The bear's claw transformed into a gigantic claw that blotted out the sky, covering an enormous area and possessing terrifying attack power. It was impossible for Tianlin to fight it head-on; he would probably be finished if he were touched even once.

"Killing God Domain, Mental Interference Domain, Holy Spirit Domain!"

In an instant, Tianlin unleashed his three domains simultaneously: the Killing God Domain weakened the opponent and strengthened himself in every way, while the Mental Interference Domain caused the opponent's attacks to become inaccurate.

The Holy Spirit Domain not only suppresses the opponent's soul power, but also accelerates the recovery of one's own soul power and the speed of attack formation. It also possesses extremely strong vitality. With the aid of the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, serious injuries can be reduced to minor injuries, and minor injuries can be directly healed.

"To have three domains before reaching level 70? No wonder my sworn brother died at your hands. However, the absolute difference in power cannot be overcome by just three domains." The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was both shocked and furious.

The bear's claws, which were originally there, now emitted a violent, blood-red light that seemed capable of tearing apart even space itself.

"Xiao Tian, ​​be careful! This is the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's ultimate move, Sky-Tearing Claw. If you get hit by this move, you're done for. Can't we use that move?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said anxiously.

"Almost there, just hold on for one more minute, Blue Silver Aura!" Tianlin raised his left arm, his whole body exuding a faint fragrance. This was the Blue Silver Emperor's soul bone skill, and the fragrance carried a very strong paralyzing toxin. It could be seen that the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's downward clawing speed began to slow down.

The next moment, Tianlin used teleportation to quickly escape the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's attack range.

Unfortunately, he underestimated the power of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

"Xiao Tian, ​​watch out for the aftershocks!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm roared.

As the Sky-Tearing Claw descended, the surrounding air became incredibly sharp, like a gale, cleaving hundreds of trees in half.

Tianlin also had a large gash torn in his chest.

This would normally have been fatal, but with the protection of the Holy Spirit's domain, it was only a superficial injury.

"Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone Technique: Wildfire cannot burn it out, the spring breeze brings it back to life!"

Tianlin activated his Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone again, and the wound on his chest was instantly healed.

"What an amazing Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!" Tianlin exclaimed in admiration.

He had used almost all his strength to block that attack, employing his three domains and two 100,000-year-old soul bones to barely hold on.

Sure enough, it's too early for him to confront the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear head-on.

Chapter 261 Counterattack Begins: Strategies for Dealing with Bear Lord

The Lake of Life, where Di Tian, ​​the leader of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts of later generations, is cultivating together with his two wives, Bi Ji and Zi Ji.

Hearing the roars of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear coming from afar, Brigitte asked somewhat uneasily, "What's wrong with Lord Bear today? He seems even more volatile than usual!"

"Sister, why bother with that guy? For the past three years, it has gone berserk every now and then. Aren't you used to it yet? You probably sensed something wrong just now. You went to see your sworn brother with great joy, only to find out it wasn't him. Of course you'd be even more annoyed. It'll be fine in a while." Zi Ji smiled disdainfully.

She didn't actually like Xiong Jun very much because Xiong Jun was too ambitious and always coveted Di Tian's position, which made her, who was protecting her husband, very unhappy.

"It's alright, don't worry about it, just focus on your cultivation!" Di Tian said calmly.

He didn't think anything would happen to Xiong Jun. This guy was very arrogant, but his combat power was undeniable. Although he ranked only fourth in cultivation in the Star Dou Great Forest, he was still a match for the Ten Thousand Demon King in a head-on battle, and Bi Ji was not good at fighting. Therefore, he could be considered the number two figure in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Of course, this doesn't include the guy who's been in seclusion recovering from his injuries.

Subduing Xiong Jun would be something even a level 97 or 98 Super Douluo might not be able to do. Since Di Tian didn't sense any powerful human soul power fluctuations from Xiong Jun, it also concluded that this guy was just acting crazy by himself again.

Just as Di Tian had thought, Xiong Jun was simply too strong, and Tian Lin was in a terrible predicament.

He hasn't attacked even once so far; he's just been using every trick in the book to defend and escape.

Besides the domain and soul bone skills he had just used, he also pushed the Immortal Wind Cloud Body Technique, Drunken Immortal Moon Gazing Step, and various Shu Mountain talismans such as defense, acceleration, and illusion to their limits. Even so, he was still forced into a corner by Xiong Jun.

"This guy is ten times stronger than that Earth Behemoth." Tianlin once again used his illusion and teleportation to narrowly avoid the attack, but he was still hit by the gale that spread when the bear's claws slashed, causing his internal organs to rupture and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But at that moment, a voice rang out from Tianlin, “Nine Treasures have a name, the ninth is the body of immortality!”

"Here it comes, Vast Ocean Protective Shield, activate!" Tianlin's eyes lit up, and he instantly expanded the range of the Vast Ocean Protective Shield to its maximum, enveloping himself and Xiong Jun at the same time.

Because now it was his turn to fight back.

The immortality he just displayed was certainly not due to Ning Fengzhi's arrival. After all, the divine test required him to hunt down the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear alone, and if Ning Fengzhi were to appear here, it would be against the rules.

However, Tianlin has a move that allows him to foresee the future. This move can not only set his own soul skills on others or in specific locations in advance, but also set others' soul skills on himself in advance.

When Tianlin first saw that calendar, he came up with this method to have Ning Fengzhi set up the immortality on himself in advance, and the activation time was around this time.

Unfortunately, Tianlin didn't bring a watch when he came to Douluo Continent, so he couldn't keep track of time down to the minute and could only rely on estimation. He almost messed up, but luckily he had a strong ability to survive and managed to hold out until his immortality was activated.

"Xiao Tian, ​​fight back! Based on the soul power your father-in-law left in you, this immortal body can only last for five minutes at most. Don't waste time!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm reminded him.

"I understand, Brother Tianmeng. You've been sacrificing for so long, you must be very skilled at sealing soul rings and soul bones by now, right?"

"Hehe, of course, I can now release the seal at any time."

"Alright, let's begin. Unlock the eighty percent of the sealing power of my million-year-old soul ring and soul bone!" Tianlin's true purpose in using this immortal body was not to withstand the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's attack, but to prevent the backlash of his mental energy from harming himself.

As long as one possesses an immortal body, no matter how many times one's spirit is severely damaged, one can recover instantly.

Only removing 80% was for safety's sake, because Ning Fengzhi said that an immortal body cannot ignore the impact of a god-level being. A million-year-level spiritual power is already infinitely close to the god-level, and Tianlin was worried that it would exceed the limit.

"what!!!"

With Tianlin's roars, his terrifying mental power instilled fear in even the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear. If this weren't within the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, where no sound or aura could escape, it would have already alerted the other ferocious beasts.

"Hmph, you human are quite formidable, I didn't expect you to possess such spiritual power. But so what? With spiritual power alone, you are still no match for me." Xiong Jun emitted a dark golden light and said in a low voice, "Dark Gold Seal!"

This is the technique that sealed Tianmeng Ice Silkworm for twelve years. Xiong Jun may seem simple-minded, but he is not stupid. He can see that Tianlin is in a strange state of being neither dead nor injured. Rashly launching a physical attack would be useless, so it would be better to seal him with the Dark Gold Seal.

"Trying to seal me? Let's see who can seal whom! Vast Ocean Divine Protection!" At this moment, Tianlin took the initiative to attack.

Suddenly, a sea-blue light emanated from the top of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, allowing it to take control of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!

This is the second skill of the Heart of the Sea God, the Vast Ocean Stabilizing Shield, which can seal any enemy with less than three times the caster's mental strength.

At this moment, Tianlin's spiritual power was incredibly strong, probably no less than any Super Douluo, and even close to rival a Limit Douluo. To have more than three times his current spiritual power would be impossible without reaching the god level.

"I can't move! You wretched humans! I'll tear you to pieces!" Xiong Jun grew increasingly furious, but unfortunately, his voice couldn't escape from within the Vast Ocean Universe Cover.

"Now that I've finished with Bear King, I'm going to take your spirit ring!" Tianlin looked at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. He didn't intend to kill it directly; a 460,000-year-old spirit ring wasn't so easy to absorb.

How did he absorb the million-year soul ring of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and how did Huo, with his cheat-like abilities, absorb the four-hundred-thousand-year soul ring of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion? The answer is sacrifice. This minimizes the risk, so he's going to use the same trick again today.

"First, take this move: Golden Flame Soul Annihilation!"

Compared to back then, Tianlin's Golden Flame Soul Extinction has now reached an incredibly terrifying level. With 80% of the seal on his million-year soul ring broken, he could probably burn any Title Douluo below level 95 to brain death instantly.

Even Xiong Jun let out a shrill roar at this moment. Its physical defense was strong, but its mental defense was not so terrible. This attack was also a considerable threat to it.

Chapter 262 Forced Sacrifice of a 460,000-Year-Old Soul Ring and Soul Bone

"Xiao Tian, ​​it's done. Let's get started!"

Seeing the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's soul being burned, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was extremely excited. It could finally avenge its second great grudge. Compared to the Behemoth, it hated the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that sealed it away even more.

"Not enough. Although the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's mental strength is not as strong as its physical body, it is not inferior to that of a Super Douluo. I need to continue weakening its soul power. Heavenly Demon Soul Lock!"

Tianlin activated the Demon Sword, and a strange blood-red light emanated from its blade. This light was from all the resentment and hatred that the Demon Sword had absorbed in the City of Slaughter, which Tianlin used to accelerate his cultivation.

But once they break through level 70, these won't be of much use anymore. Now, Tianlin is going to release them all at once.

As the demonic sword was wielded, the endless resentment and hatred accumulated over the past two years transformed into a massive evil force, which Tianlin then infused into the spirit of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

In an instant, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, its eyes turning blood red, its mind filled with malice, and it completely lost its reason.

Tianlin sheathed the demonic sword, transforming it into his second martial soul, the Holy Spirit Pearl. "First Soul Skill, Five Elements Purification!"

His Five Elements Purification skill is designed to target evil spirits and is useless against ordinary people. That's why Tianlin wanted the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear to be possessed by an evil spirit so that he could purify it.

Even after purification, a person possessed by a ghost will remain in a state of extreme weakness for a period of time.

As the light of the Holy Spirit Orb shines upon the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, its evil thoughts and resentment are continuously purified, and its soul power is constantly weakened.

Once the purification was complete, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear could barely keep its eyes open. It was too exhausted to even feel anger; all it could think about was sleeping and resting.

Seeing its condition, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm hurriedly said, "Little Tian, ​​there's definitely no problem this time. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit is extremely weak right now, and its immortality is less than a minute away. We can't waste any more time."

"Hmm, Soul Bone Skill, Mind Control!" Tianlin weakened the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit in order to use Mind Control to subdue it; otherwise, with its powerful and violent mental strength, Mind Control would be impossible to succeed.

A beam of soul light shot out from Tianlin's forehead, striking the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's mind. At this moment, its soul defense was almost zero, and the Mind Control Technique sealed its fate in one strike.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear no longer roared; its eyes were vacant, and its arms hung limply, like a marionette.

"Success!" Tianlin was very happy, but now was not the time to waste. Once the time of immortality was over, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm would have to seal the million-year soul ring again. At that time, Tianlin's mental power would drop sharply, and with the strength of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, he would be able to break free from the mind immediately.

Even the Vast Ocean's Divine Protection Formation might not be able to contain it.

"Offer it to me!" Tianlin immediately gave the order.

"Yes." The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear walked blankly to Tian Lin's side, accompanied by a huge fluctuation of soul power, and a violent aura continued to surge towards Tian Lin.

Tianlin hurriedly summoned the Demon Sword and cast the Illusory Water Thunder spell on himself, forcibly breaking through to level 70.

As expected of the metal element that governs killing, even as a sacrifice, this sharp power still caused Tianlin excruciating pain all over his body, completely unlike the neutral and peaceful way the Blue Silver Emperor sacrificed himself to Ning Fengzhi.

Fortunately, this was inside the Vast Ocean Universe Cover; otherwise, such a terrifying sacrificial aura would probably have caused all the soul beasts in the forest to riot.

Tianlin sat cross-legged, his Holy Spirit Domain expanded, fully enduring the impact of the 460,000-year-old spirit ring.

The days of immortality were over, and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm resealed the soul ring. With its spiritual power greatly reduced, the Soul-Seizing Bear could no longer control the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear regained its freedom, but it was too late. The sacrifice had already begun, and its body was gradually dissipating. Even if it wanted to stop, it couldn't. Moreover, its soul was still weak. With the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm protecting Tianlin's soul, it couldn't cause any trouble at all.

"Hey, big oaf, you're awake. What a pity, you woke up to find your body suddenly gone. Isn't that funny?" Tianmeng Bingcan said with a laugh.

Xiong Jun was furious, "Golden-Patterned Ice Silkworm, you were indeed involved in scheming against me and my sworn brother! You are a traitor among the soul beasts!"

"Heh, traitor?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm sneered. "Have you guys ever considered me one of your own kind? From the first day I met you, you sealed me away and kept absorbing my essence to cultivate. Even your so-called master ignored me. I have never considered myself one of your people. I am who I am, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. Now I belong only to my little Tian. Only he is one of us!"

"Damn it!" The soul of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared and charged toward the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, but in the next moment, it was suppressed by the immense mental power and could not move.

"Stop struggling, Xiong Jun. Your greatest strength is your physical power. Now you are just a soul like me. Do you really think you can contend with my millions of years of spiritual cultivation?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm sneered. It had been bullied by Xiong Jun in the past, and today it was finally getting its revenge.

The former king of the Star Dou Great Forest is now groveling at the feet of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm like a stray dog. For Tianmeng, this scene is even more satisfying than killing Xiong Jun directly.

Time passed second by second. For as long as Tianlin absorbed, the suppressed Xiong Jun's soul roared for just as long. Gradually, its soul became weaker and weaker, and even began to dissipate.

Tianlin is almost finished.

A red spirit ring was placed around the sixth spirit ring of the demon sword. Unlike ordinary 100,000-year spirit rings, this spirit ring had four golden patterns on it.

At the same time, golden light shimmered on Tianlin's right arm. Just like with the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm back then, Xiong Jun sacrificed his own soul ring and soul bone to Tianlin. This was a right arm bone.
