Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

Blue light emanated from Seahorse Douluo, and many blue lights also floated in the ring-shaped sea, quickly converging towards Seahorse Douluo. In just an instant, a huge blue energy vortex formed around Seahorse Douluo.

As the energy vortex formed, the injuries on Seahorse Douluo's body also recovered rapidly.

Immediately afterwards, the blue energy vortex continued to expand, and under the control of Seahorse Douluo, it swept towards Chen Luo and the huge five-clawed golden dragon. The terrifying energy released from the energy vortex alone was enough to make people tremble with fear. How could the ninth soul skill from a Title Douluo be ordinary?

However, Chen Luo remained calm, as if he had planned it all along. He decisively withdrew the Dragon Domain that he had just activated and then activated his other super-powerful domain—the Time Domain.

Chen Luo had obtained the Time Domain a long time ago, but at that time he was not strong enough and could only master the incomplete version. When his strength reached the Soul Saint level, the Time Domain became the complete version.

After the Time Domain was activated, an invisible and powerful force was released from Chen Luo and the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, covering the Seahorse Douluo before the Seahorse Douluo's energy vortex arrived.

The next second, Seahorse Douluo's body froze in place as if petrified, and the energy vortex stopped moving forward, as if it had stopped moving.

This is precisely Chen Luo's powerful ability in the realm of time—time stop.

Chapter 248 Double Kill (Part 1)

After the time stop, golden lightning erupted from the five-clawed golden dragon's body, swirling around it.

At the same time, Chen Luo's sixth soul ring suddenly lit up, and he activated one of his 100,000-year soul skills, Heavenly Thunder Void Break!

The five-clawed golden dragon opened its huge mouth, and all the golden lightning gathered into it. In just a moment, a golden ball of lightning energy was formed, and then it roared towards Seahorse Douluo.

The golden lightning energy ball moved through the air, leaving a trail of golden light and shadow, vaguely resembling a long golden dragon, carrying extremely terrifying soul power fluctuations, and landed precisely at the location of Seahorse Douluo.

It was at this moment that time stopped.

"boom!!!"

With a violent explosion, the area was completely covered by golden lightning. The terrifying energy released caused Flander and Liu Erlong, who were watching from afar, to change color and had to immediately use their soul power to resist.

The Haima Shengzhu platform ultimately couldn't withstand the repeated terrifying explosions and cracks appeared, seemingly on the verge of collapse at any moment.

After the energy storm subsided and the blinding golden lightning faded, the figure of Seahorse Douluo appeared on the Seahorse Sacred Pillar platform, panting with his hands on his knees, his body emitting wisps of black smoke. His Martial Soul True Body had ended, leaving him powerless and severely injured.

Upon seeing this, Chen Luo immediately went to Seahorse Douluo. Instead of offering any pretentious apologies, he clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, saying, "Senior, you flatter me!"

Having already beaten someone to this extent, apologizing will only embarrass them further. It would be better to treat them as a respectable opponent from beginning to end.

Seahorse Douluo straightened up with some difficulty, a faint smile appearing on his face. He showed no resentment at losing to Chen Luo and replied with a smile, "Your strength is truly unfathomable. Although I lost to you, I accept the defeat wholeheartedly."

"Take more time to recover, and when you go to the other Holy Pillar Guardians, remember to be ruthless. Don't be polite to them; they are all very resilient."

"I won't entertain you any longer; I need to quickly cultivate and recover."

After saying that, Seahorse Douluo was about to sit down cross-legged on the spot, ready to cultivate.

At this moment, Flander and Liu Erlong had arrived. Chen Luo immediately gave Flander a wink, and Flander immediately clasped his hands in a fist salute to Seahorse Douluo and said, "Senior, I challenge you!"

Seahorse Douluo glared at Flander with annoyance: "You really know how to pick your timing, didn't you? Did you plan this all along?"

"I can't fight you anymore. I admit defeat. You've passed the test!"

"Don't bother me anymore, I need to cultivate!"

Before he finished speaking, Seahorse Douluo closed his eyes and entered a state of cultivation.

Chen Luo and the others were surprised that Seahorse Douluo was so easy to talk to. Flander's surprise was the strongest, but it was quickly replaced by excitement.

"I passed the test!"

Flander said, "It's a pity I only received half a level of soul power as a reward."

"We should be satisfied. This half-level of soul power is like a freebie."

Flander smiled at Chen Luo: "Thanks, bro!"

Chen Luo smiled slightly: "No problem."

Chen Luo then cultivated on the Seahorse Sacred Pillar platform to recover his soul power. After about half an hour, his condition returned to its best.

After Chen Luo's strength reached the Soul Saint level, not only did his combat power increase, but his soul power recovery and other aspects also saw a huge improvement.

Whether it was just his imagination or not, Chen Luo felt that only after reaching the Soul Saint level could he truly unleash the power of his divine-level technique. Now, he had an inexhaustible supply of soul power, and the speed at which his soul power recovered was incredibly exaggerated.

After Chen Luo finished his cultivation, Seahorse Douluo also stopped cultivating as well.

Seahorse Douluo seemed to be paying close attention to Chen Luo's situation, while his own condition was clearly not yet fully recovered.

"You're a monster! You used so many powerful soul skills in a row, yet you recovered your soul power so quickly."

Seahorse Douluo sighed.

Chen Luo gave a polite smile: "You flatter me, senior."

"I apologize for disturbing you, senior. I should go and challenge the other seniors now!"

Seahorse Douluo immediately smiled warmly: "No rush, have a cup of tea here first, it's fine to go later. Anyway, there's no time limit for your challenge, so it's okay to go tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo was slightly taken aback, as if he had seen through Seahorse Douluo's little scheme.

Although Chen Luo's fourth assessment challenge against the Title Douluo did not explicitly state that there was a time limit after starting the challenge, Chen Luo was still worried that if he wasted too much time, it would affect his assessment rewards.

Even though Seahorse Douluo warmly urged him to stay, Chen Luo still clasped his hands in farewell and said, "No need, senior. Thank you for your kindness. I'll be leaving now. I'll visit you when I have time after the assessment!"

"Ok."

Seahorse Douluo nodded slightly, then smiled and encouraged, "I believe that with your strength you will definitely pass the test. Don't forget to be ruthless towards them."

Chen Luo smiled and nodded. Flander and Liu Erlong also immediately said goodbye, and then the three of them left the Seahorse Sacred Pillar Platform and headed towards the Sea Spear Sacred Pillar Platform.

Sea Spear Douluo's combat power is definitely among the top three of all the Holy Pillar Guardians, and his strength is quite formidable. Logically speaking, such an opponent should be challenged last, but Chen Luo ultimately decided to follow the route of Tang San challenging Title Douluos in the book's plot.

This route has certain tactical arrangements for Tang San in the book's plot, but it is not so special for Chen Luo; it is simply a matter of proximity.

Chen Luo was quite confident in his strength, especially after defeating Seahorse Douluo. Even if he were to challenge the strongest of the Holy Pillar Guardians, Sea Dragon Douluo, now, Chen Luo would be confident and not flustered at all.

Sea Spear Pillar Platform.

Like Seahorse Douluo, Sea Spear Douluo seemed to have anticipated Chen Luo's arrival and was already waiting.

Upon seeing Chen Luo, Sea Spear Douluo revealed a hint of surprise: "It's even faster than I expected. It seems that Seahorse is really getting old."

Chen Luo ignored the words of Sea Spear Douluo, clasped his hands and bowed slightly: "Senior, please enlighten me!"

"Alright!" Sea Spear Douluo didn't waste any more words and readily agreed.

Flander and Liu Erlong were already waiting overseas in the ring, and they kept their martial souls activated. They had already experienced Chen Luo's terrifying combat power and had some experience. Even if they were just watching, they had to be careful.

Chapter 249 Double Kill (Part 2)

Chen Luo and Sea Spear Douluo activated their martial souls at the same time, and the scene that had played out with Seahorse Douluo was repeated with Sea Spear Douluo without exception.

When Sea Spear Douluo saw Chen Luo's Five-Clawed Golden Dragon and the combination of Chen Luo's spirit rings, he was also shocked.

Without any unnecessary words, the fight between the two quickly began.

Just like in his battle against Seahorse Douluo, Chen Luo first distanced himself from Sea Spear Douluo, still relying on the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon as his main fighting force, and his fighting style remained largely unchanged.

First, activate the Dragon Domain, unleash your full power, and maximize your combat strength.

He then used his first soul skill, Lightning Storm, to test the waters.

Compared to Seahorse Douluo's choice to defend, Sea Spear Douluo appears much more aggressive, using offense as a form of defense.

The cannonball formed from lightning rushed towards Sea Spear Douluo. Sea Spear Douluo's sixth soul skill lit up, and he threw the spear in his hand. The spear turned into a golden light and collided with the lightning cannonball, causing a violent explosion.

Golden lightning raged in mid-air, but it did not harm Sea Spear Douluo in the slightest. The golden spear continued to advance, rushing towards Chen Luo.

That's right, it was charging towards Chen Luo, not the five-clawed golden dragon.

Sea Spear Douluo's goal was very clear: to take down Chen Luo directly.

Sea Spear Douluo's battle strategy was clearly sound. Even if the five-clawed golden dragon was incredibly powerful, it was summoned by Chen Luo. As long as Chen Luo was dealt with, the five-clawed golden dragon would naturally dissipate.

But is Chen Luo really that easy to deal with?

The answer is obviously no.

The five-clawed golden dragon blocked Chen Luo's path, forcefully swinging its claws to knock away the Sea Spear Douluo's golden spear. Then, it unleashed its second soul skill, Sleeping Light, the same set of skills used against the Seahorse Douluo.

A golden magic circle appeared, followed by a burst of golden light.

Sensing something was wrong, Sea Spear Douluo immediately took action to defend himself. With a wave of his hand, the golden spear returned to his grasp. Then, his fourth soul skill lit up, and the golden spear in his hand shone brightly. He then began to spin it.

As the golden spear spun by Sea Spear Douluo, it instantly formed a golden barrier, blocking the sleeping light of the five-clawed golden dragon.

The Sleeping Light is released in the form of energy, and Sea Spear Douluo's fourth soul skill seems to be specifically designed to counter this type of soul skill, making it a perfect counter.

The sixth soul skill used by Sea Spear Douluo before was also like this, which could directly detonate the lightning storm of the five-clawed golden dragon.

Considering that Sea Spear Douluo's eighth soul skill can absorb energy and reflect it, it seems that Sea Spear Douluo's soul skill is specifically designed to deal with energy-based attacks.

Chen Luo was slightly surprised to see this, but he did not panic.

The Sleeping Light was not so easy to resist. Under Chen Luo's soul power, the Sleeping Light became even more dazzling, exceeding the limit that Sea Spear Douluo's fourth soul skill could withstand. In the end, it still had a certain impact on Sea Spear Douluo, but it was only a slight impact, causing Sea Spear Douluo's body to pause slightly.

This was enough for Chen Luo. The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon had already rushed to the front of Sea Spear Douluo during this gap, but it did not directly attack Sea Spear Douluo. Instead, it passed by and came behind Sea Spear Douluo.

Then, Chen Luo's sixth spirit ring lit up, and the Thunder Barrier, one of the two spirit skills carried by the 100,000-year spirit ring, was activated.

Golden light suddenly emanated from Chen Luo's body, as did the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon. Then, a bolt of golden lightning erupted from Chen Luo's body, and on the other side, golden lightning also erupted from the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon's body. The two connected in the blink of an eye, instantly forming a cube-shaped barrier that imprisoned the Sea Spear Douluo within.

The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon can also release the Thunder Barrier on its own, but the combined release effect of Chen Luo and the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon is better than releasing it alone.

Sea Spear Douluo, being a Title Douluo, decisively released his Martial Soul True Form after being imprisoned. His body transformed into golden liquid, merging into the golden spear. With body and spear united, the golden spear became enormous, and the aura it emitted became even more powerful.

Upon activating his Martial Soul True Form, Sea Spear Douluo immediately unleashed his third Soul Skill. The enormous golden spear transformed into three streaks of spear light, which then hurtled toward the Thunder Barrier at incredible speed.

Even though the lightning barrier was incredibly sturdy and contained powerful lightning, Sea Spear Douluo still managed to break through it in a matter of moments.

However, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon attacked again, giving Sea Spear Douluo no chance to catch his breath.

That's right, this challenge has once again entered Chen Luo's battle rhythm.

Chen Luo never imagined that he could defeat a Title Douluo-level expert with just one or two simple soul skills. He kept creating opportunities for himself, perfectly linking his soul skills together, and launching continuous attacks, keeping his opponent on the defensive.

As Sea Spear Douluo broke through the Thunder Barrier, Chen Luo's left leg emitted a blue light, activating his 100,000-year-old soul bone skill.

The five-clawed golden dragon was enveloped in lightning, and all the lightning entered its body, making its aura even stronger. Then, some blue lightning appeared out of thin air and circled around the five-clawed golden dragon, greatly increasing its speed.

These are the two soul skills carried by Chen Luo's 100,000-year-old Thunder Left Leg Bone: Thunderous Possession and Lightning Speed. The former enhances combat power, while the latter increases speed. These amplifying soul skills from a 100,000-year-old soul bone are truly terrifying.

With the blessing of Thunder Fury and Lightning Speed, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon arrived in front of Sea Spear Douluo in an instant, and its huge dragon tail lashed out at Sea Spear Douluo.
