Douluo Continent: Sword Named Star, Slaying Gods to Prove the Dao

"Can we begin?" Sword Douluo asked, looking at the two of them.

“Okay!” Sea Dragon Douluo responded.

The three then simultaneously released their martial souls. Sea Dragon Douluo's martial soul was a sea dragon, and Sea Ghost Douluo's martial soul was a manta ray. The two quickly completed the martial soul possession.

Sword Douluo swung his Seven Kill Sword, and a streak of azure sword energy immediately slashed towards the two of them. Sea Dragon Douluo swung his arms, and his hands transformed into dragon claws.

With a single claw strike, Sword Douluo's sword energy was immediately dispersed.

At this moment, Sea Ghost Douluo immediately released his soul skill at Sword Douluo, and upon seeing this, Sword Douluo directly raised the Seven Kill Sword and rushed forward.

With the sword settling the world, the Sea Ghost Douluo's soul skill was instantly forced to be used.

"This...this is so powerful." The holy pillars below were all amazed.

This move not only broke the Sea Demon Douluo's soul skill but also sent him flying.

Sea Dragon Douluo immediately unleashed his soul skill towards Sword Douluo. Seeing Sea Dragon Douluo charging towards him, Sword Douluo did not retreat but took the initiative to meet Sea Dragon Douluo's attack.

"Sea Dragon Douluo has also broken through to level 95!" Bone Douluo whispered not far from Ning Xingchen.

"Uncle Bone, this Sea Dragon Douluo looks pretty powerful. With Sea Ghost Douluo assisting him, he's really not easy to deal with."

Bone Douluo said, "His Sea Dragon Martial Soul is of good quality, no less than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul. Even when I fought him before, it was quite troublesome. Fortunately, my soul power was much stronger than his, so I was able to suppress him. If I had the same level of soul power as him, it would not be easy to defeat him."

After Sea Dragon Douluo used his soul skill to actively entangle Sword Douluo, Sea Ghost Douluo's soul skill came into play. Instead of taking the lead in attacking, he became a support.

It was clear that they were prepared for the battle against Sword Douluo. They were a little nervous at first, but after a few regroupings, their tacit cooperation became apparent, making it very difficult for Sword Douluo to fight them.

Chapter 108 Level 97 Sword Douluo, Qingyu's Sacrifice Test?

If it were an ordinary level 95 titled Douluo and Sea Ghost Douluo joining forces, it would be easier to fight, but Sea Dragon Douluo is indeed extraordinary.

Of course, Sword Douluo is no weakling either; if he were to fight a level 95 Sea Dragon Douluo alone, the battle would end quickly.

However, if there is a Sea Demon Douluo with a control-type ability to assist in the battle, it will be completely different. This is more troublesome than facing two strong offensive types.

Actually, Sword Douluo could have chosen other people. The reason he chose Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Ghost Douluo was to add some control elements to increase the difficulty and to achieve a breakthrough in battle.

During the battle, Sword Douluo suddenly became sluggish, as if he had been poisoned.

When the Sea Demon Douluo used his eighth soul skill, Illusion Demon Heart-Eating Thrust, the Sword Douluo seemed to appear in a hallucination.

"We will not lose this battle. So what if we are level 96!" The spirit rings on Sea Dragon Douluo's body lit up, and then he launched an attack on Sword Douluo.

"Be careful!" Ning Dingling shouted with a worried expression.

With the Sea Dragon Douluo's attack imminent and Sword Douluo still unable to break free from control, everyone was worried.

With a loud bang, everyone thought Sword Douluo had been hit.

"We won!" one of the Holy Pillars watching from the sidelines exclaimed in delight. None of them present could withstand the attack from the Sea Dragon Douluo.

“It’s not that easy,” Sea Dragon Douluo suddenly said.

His attack just now almost hit Sword Douluo completely, but at the last moment Sword Douluo broke free from control and blocked the attack with the Seven Kill Sword.

While the attack seemed to have put Sword Douluo in a somewhat awkward position, it actually did not cause much damage.

"Very good, your attack has aroused my fighting spirit." Sword Douluo held the Seven Kill Sword, and with just one glance, Sea Ghost Douluo couldn't help but take a step back.

Even Sword Douluo himself didn't notice that his aura was gradually increasing and his soul power was rising.

"This guy finally caught up. It seems I've fallen behind again," Bone Douluo said, a sign that he was about to break through.

Upon seeing this, Sea Ghost Douluo immediately activated his strongest ninth soul skill, Dark Star Azure Sky, to attack Sword Douluo.

Sea Dragon Douluo also noticed the changes in Sword Douluo and knew that if he did not attack at this moment, he would have no chance after Sword Douluo fully broke through.

Therefore, Sea Dragon Douluo also used his ninth soul skill, Deep Sea Blazing Cold Current Break. Blue and red energy converged to form a huge beam of light that roared towards Sword Douluo at high speed.

With two ninth-level soul skills, Sword Douluo seemed completely unfazed. He slowly raised the Seven Kill Sword and whispered, "Seven Kill Thunder rises, a sword pierces the sky."

Sword Douluo's eighth soul skill involves transforming his soul power into a four-armed giant demon wielding four Seven Kill Swords, which he simultaneously swings to form a crescent slash.

Facing the opponent's two ninth soul skills, he instantly shattered them, directly threatening Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Ghost Douluo.

"It's over."

Having just used the ninth soul skill, I can only passively defend.

puff...

He then coughed up a mouthful of blood and knelt on the ground.

Then, Sword Douluo appeared in front of the two of them.

"You, you've broken through to level ninety-seven?" asked Sea Dragon Douluo.

"I suppose so," Sword Douluo replied.

At this moment, the Seven Kill Sword landed on the shoulder of Sea Dragon Douluo. What else could he do but admit defeat?

"We lost!" Sea Dragon Douluo said helplessly. Now that the Seven Kill Sword was on his shoulder, he had no choice but to admit defeat. Even if there was no threat, they had no chance of defeating the level 97 Sword Douluo.

Only after hearing his opponent admit defeat did Sword Douluo put away the Seven Kill Sword.

The next moment, a beam of light descended, and Sword Douluo's first test was completed.

Ning Xingchen was also wondering if the rewards from the Divine Trial would further boost Sword Douluo's soul power.

However, after the beam of light fell, Sword Douluo's soul power did not change at all; it still looked like he had just broken through to level 97. It only lasted for a dozen seconds before stopping.

"Uncle Sword, congratulations on your breakthrough." Ning Xingchen said. Compared to the original novel, Sword Douluo completed his breakthrough more than 20 years earlier, and that was without losing an arm.

"What was the reward for the divine test just now?"

Sword Douluo said, "It only increased the age of my spirit rings, adding a thousand years to the age of each spirit ring!"

"Only a thousand years?"

"I guess they'll be increasing the age of my spirit rings from now on. But that's fine too, it can make up for my shortcomings. After the age of my spirit rings increases, the power of my spirit ring skills will also increase accordingly," Sword Douluo said.

Ning Xingchen had mentioned to Sword Douluo before that the rewards from the Divine Trial would increase soul power, but now it seems that even after reaching a certain stage, soul power can no longer be increased.

Or perhaps it's a bit too much that Sword Douluo, who is already level 96, would receive a reward of one level of soul power each time.

"Then it's my turn." Bone Douluo said and stepped forward.

"I challenge you two, Seahorse and Starfish," said Bone Douluo.

Sea Spear Douluo seemed somewhat displeased that Bone Douluo hadn't challenged him, after all, he was the second-ranked among the Seven Sacred Pillars.

Seeing this, Zhao Ziyun immediately said to Sea Spear Douluo, "I will fight you later."

"You? Good, very good!" A smile appeared on the face of the Sea Spear Douluo.

He believed that defeating Bone Douluo, who was at level 96, would be difficult, but he was confident in fighting opponents with similar soul power.

Seahorse Douluo and Starfish Douluo were not considered strong. Bone Douluo was simply overwhelming to them. Even though the two cooperated well, they could only last for half an incense stick's time against Bone Douluo.

Bone Douluo passed the first Black-level test, and his reward was the same as Sword Douluo's: his soul power was not increased, but the age of all his soul rings was increased by a thousand years.

Next up is the battle between Sea Spear Douluo and Zhao Ziyun. Both spears and spears are of the same type of weapon spirit, and their spirit power is also the same at level 93, so they seem to be evenly matched.

The battle between the two was extremely intense from the start. After releasing their martial spirits, they did not use any soul skills, but instead attacked each other with their martial spirits and techniques.

However, the Sea Spear Douluo could only hold out for a few minutes before he had to use his soul skill. Even with his soul skill, Zhao Ziyun was not afraid and suppressed the Sea Spear Douluo with all his might, leaving him no chance.

Zhao Ziyun won the competition without any doubt and completed the first test.

Despite receiving the reward, Zhao Ziyun's soul power did not increase; it remained the same as Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, with his soul ring's age increasing by a thousand years.

Ning Xingchen also came to a conclusion from this: once one reaches the Title Douluo level, there are no more rewards for increasing soul power; however, Soul Douluo level still receives rewards for increasing soul power.

After all, he had also leveled up from level 87 to level 88.

Therefore, for the next two divine trials, as long as everyone's divine trials do not require his help.

Then he can speed up the divine test and use the rewards from the divine test to raise his soul power to level 90 sooner.

That evening, everyone returned to the lord's mansion in the Ama City to celebrate.

Everyone worked very hard in the past year, and they were training at a high intensity every day. So Ning Xingchen is letting everyone rest for a few days before the second test.

After a satisfying meal, everyone returned to their rooms to rest.

In the middle of the night, Ning Xingchen, unusually, did not cultivate and prepared to get a good night's sleep. However, just as Ning Xingchen was about to fall asleep, he heard faint footsteps.

The footsteps stopped in front of him. Had they come looking for him?

Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," Ning Xingchen said.

The door opened, and Qingyu walked in.

"Young Master, it's me." Qingyu's pretty face flushed red.

Ning Xingchen was also surprised to hear it was Qingyu. He asked, "Qingyu, is there something you need?"

Qingyu mustered her courage and said, "My second test is... well... it requires your help, Young Master."

Ning Xingchen suddenly thought of Bibi Dong's assessment and Bai Chenxiang's assessment. Could it be that Qingyu's assessment was also like that?

"Qingyu, are you serious?" Ning Xingchen asked.

Qingyu said, "This is a divine test, so I'm definitely taking it seriously."

"Okay, tell me how you want the assessment done. I'll do my best to help you as much as I can," Ning Xingchen said.

Seeing that Ning Xingchen agreed, Qingyu mustered up her courage, stepped forward, hugged Ning Xingchen, and kissed her.

"I understand!"

Ning Xingchen thought to himself that he was just like Bibi Dong, but he was used to taking the initiative and picked Qingyu up directly.

Qingyu is quite good-looking, on par with Liu Erlong, and even has a better figure. She is only in her early thirties, which is considered very young for a Soul Master in the world of Douluo.

Qingyu's soul power has grown rapidly over the years, so he looks even younger than before, only in his early twenties.

Moreover, as the former leader of a mercenary group, his demeanor was unmatched by ordinary people.

Qingyu was stunned, feeling extremely nervous as Ning Xingchen picked her up.

This young master Ning Xingchen is too proactive! She hasn't even told him the specific content of the divine test yet.
