People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

The appearance of this scene really made everyone present feel unprecedented shock.

Qinglin and Xiaoyixian stood close to each other, with alert expressions on their faces. Xiaoyixian began to gather poisonous gas in her hands, and was obviously ready to take action at any time. Qinglin waved her hand and summoned several snake monsters, which quickly surrounded them and formed a line of defense.

Zi Yan was also concentrating, she spread her fighting wings, lightly suspended in the air, her fists flashing purple light, ready to fight at any time. The whole scene was tense and solemn, everyone was preparing for a possible battle.

Xiao Ling seemed relatively calm. He gathered himself together, frowned slightly, and asked Yao Chen, "Old Yao, what's going on? Could this be the residual soul of the Turtle Spirit Master?"

His guess was not groundless. As we all know, the soul of a Dou Zun-level warrior is so strong that it is shocking. Take Yao Tianhuo for example. His soul can survive for a thousand years in the magma world. This is certainly due to the blessing of the soul by the Fallen Heart Flame. However, Yao Tianhuo can keep the soul from dispersing for so long, which also shows how durable the soul power of Dou Zun is.

Although the strange fire that Gui Ling mastered might not be as helpful to the soul as the Fallen Heart Flame, it should not be underestimated. Moreover, he was an eighth-grade alchemist, and his soul power was definitely much stronger than Yao Tian Fire. Perhaps, Gui Ling's soul had not dissipated yet.

Yao Chen carefully observed the situation in front of him, thought for a moment, and then responded: "This situation should not be a remnant soul. I speculate that this may be a mark of will left by the Turtle Spirit Venerable during his lifetime. He may have imposed some kind of restriction on the body, and once someone triggers a certain condition, the body will react."

Yao Tianhuo also nodded, expressing his agreement: "Brother Yao is right, this is more like a protection mechanism. When he was alive, the Reverend Gui Ling must not have wanted his body and strange fire to fall into the hands of unworthy people, so he left such a backup plan."

After hearing this, Xiao Ling felt relieved, but he knew that they had to be more cautious. He took a deep breath and said to the three women behind him, "Everyone stay alert and don't act rashly. We don't know how this will react, nor what kind of test it will bring."

The three women nodded one after another. They knew in their hearts that facing such an unknown situation, any reckless behavior might lead to unfavorable consequences for themselves.

At this moment, a white light suddenly burst out from the eyes of the Turtle Spirit Master who was floating in the air and shot towards Xiao Ling and the others.

All this happened too suddenly, without any warning. The light did not carry any murderous attack power, and did not immediately arouse the vigilance of several people. Even Yao Chen and Yao Tianhuo, who had the fastest reactions, failed to react in time.

The light pierced the air like lightning, shining directly on Xiao Yixian, Zi Yan, Qing Lin, and Xiao Ling. Everyone's heart tightened, and they instinctively wanted to dodge or fight back, but they found that the light had already touched their bodies.

When several people reacted and were about to respond, the light disappeared as abruptly as it appeared. All that was left was the faint flickering light on each person's body, proving that the scene just now was not an illusion.

Xiao Yixian, Zi Yan and Qing Lin looked at each other and shook their heads, indicating that they were fine. Xiao Ling focused his mind and examined himself, but he also found nothing wrong.

Xiao Ling nodded slightly and confirmed everyone's condition, "We are all fine." There was a hint of relief in his voice.

Yao Chen, as the most knowledgeable person in the group, calmly analyzed, "This should be a procedure set up by the Gui Ling Venerable in advance, to conduct some form of inspection on you." His eyes flashed with wisdom, and he seemed to have his own understanding of this phenomenon. "Such means are not uncommon. Many powerful beings will set up various mechanisms in their ruins to ensure that only the right candidates can inherit their legacy."

After hearing Yao Chen's explanation, everyone understood the situation and breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just when they thought this was just a peaceful change, suddenly, a voice echoed in everyone's mind. This voice was deep and full of majesty, as if it had crossed the boundaries of time and space: "Young practitioners, I am the Reverend Gui Ling. The fact that you can get here shows that there is a special fate between us. I left this will behind in order to find a suitable successor."

"Although after investigation, I found that you are not my direct descendants, but that is not important. If you can pass the test I set and defeat me, I will pass on my strange fire and relics to you without hesitation. However, if you cannot prove your strength, then you will stay here forever, become a part of this palace, and sleep with it."

After hearing these words, Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes. It seems that if he wants to obtain this Turtle Spirit Earth Fire and the remains of Turtle Spirit Venerable, he will first need to fight with the will of this Venerable.

At this moment, Yao Chen and Yao Tianhuo floated to Xiao Ling's side, both looking quite relaxed, as if they did not feel any sense of crisis about the current situation.

Yao Tianhuo asked, "Xiao Ling, do you need our help? It's not difficult for us to deal with a programmed will. If we get rid of that guy, we should be able to capture the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire easily."

After this period of recovery, Yao Tianhuo's soul strength has been significantly improved, enough to deal with the combat power of an average Dou Zong six-star. During the time he was with Xiao Ling, he had been enjoying Xiao Ling's care and resources. Now, Yao Tianhuo also hopes to show his value through his own strength, so that Xiao Ling will pay more attention to his affairs.

Hearing Yao Tianhuo's question, Xiao Ling did not answer directly, but planned to first investigate the current level of the body in front of him.

After some sensing, Xiao Ling has roughly figured out the strength of Turtle Spirit Venerable's will. Although it should not be underestimated, it has only reached the level of a high-level Dou Zong, about the level of eight or nine stars of Dou Zong.

For Xiao Ling, who has already tamed several kinds of strange fire and has many secret techniques at his disposal, he has enough confidence to deal with such an opponent.

So, Xiao Ling smiled slightly and replied: "Since it is a test, then I will try it myself. Facing the will of this venerable Dao is also a rare opportunity for training."

When hearing these words, Yao Tianhuo couldn't help but reveal a hint of loss in his eyes, while a gleam of approval flashed in Yao Chen's eyes.

"Then, let us support you here. You just need to go all out and don't worry about anything else." Yao Chen stroked his long beard gently, his tone revealing his firm support for Xiao Ling's decision. "If you encounter any accidents, I will also do my best and will not let you suffer any loss." After saying this, Yao Chen's originally kind eyes also flashed a sharp color.

Xiao Ling nodded, then stepped forward and walked towards the body of Turtle Spirit Master floating above the jade bed.

As he approached, the atmosphere in the hall gradually became solemn, and everyone could feel the upcoming contest.

Zi Yan, Xiao Yixiang and Qing Lin stepped aside, leaving enough space for the two to fight.

In the hall, a battle across time and space is about to begin.

As Xiao Ling's footsteps gradually approached, the air in the bronze hall seemed to solidify, and the heavy atmosphere made everyone's heartbeat become clearly audible.

He stood in the void, holding the Falling Divine Weapon tightly in his hand, the sharp tip of the spear flashing a cold light in the dim light. Xiao Ling's eyes were as calm as water. Facing the "Turtle Spirit Venerable" not far away, he spoke lightly, revealing a hint of calmness and confidence in his voice:

"Senior, since you have set a test, I, Xiao Ling, will accept it. Let me prove whether I am qualified to inherit the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire in your hand."

However, the "Turtle Spirit Venerable" on the opposite side did not seem to be moved by Xiao Ling's words. The dark brown flames in his empty eye sockets burned quietly without a ripple.

A moment later, a hoarse and majestic voice came from the immortal body, announcing the beginning of the test:

Since you are eager to prove yourself, then let me see your strength."

As soon as the words fell, the air in the hall seemed to be grasped by an invisible giant hand, and a heavy pressure as heavy as a mountain was released from the body of "Turtle Spirit Venerable", making it difficult for people to breathe. If a person with weaker cultivation faced this momentum, he would be oppressed and kneel to the ground in an instant.

Xiao Yixian and Zi Yan reacted quickly, each releasing a layer of Dou Qi barrier, like a transparent shield, blocking the surging momentum. Qing Lin was surrounded by a sixth-level shadow python, and was protected and not affected at all.

However, Yao Chen and Yao Tianhuo looked calm and composed in the face of this momentum, as if they were strolling in the garden, appearing to be unhurried.

Feeling the shocking strength of "Reverend Turtle Spirit", the three women couldn't help but worry for Xiao Ling.

Qing Lin walked to Yao Chen, his eyes flashing with curiosity and concern, and asked softly: "Teacher, the opponent is so strong, can the young master successfully pass this test?"

The other two also looked at him curiously. They knew that Xiao Ling's strength had reached the level of three-star Dou Zong, but facing the "Turtle Spirit Venerable" in front of them whose strength obviously surpassed the three-star Dou Zong, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Yao Chen smiled gently, a hint of deep meaning flashed across his eyes, his voice was calm and full of confidence: "Xiao Ling's strength is far beyond what you know. The hidden power in his body is enough to cope with this challenge. Believe in him, he will definitely pass the test smoothly."

Yao Tianhuo also added lightly: "Don't worry, if there is any accident, Brother Yao and I will take action in time. We will not let that kid get into trouble."

When the three girls heard this, the worries in their hearts gradually dissipated like clouds and mist, and were replaced by firm belief and trust in Xiao Ling.

With the burden lifted from their hearts, their attention once again focused on the tense confrontation between Xiao Ling and "Reverend Turtle Spirit".

The tense atmosphere in the air seemed to freeze into ice, and every breath could feel the breath of battle that was about to break out.

As the "Turtle Spirit Venerable" released his aura, the atmosphere in the entire hall became more tense. His aura was like a sword drawn from its sheath, sharp and unstoppable.

He raised his somewhat dry palm, and in his palm, a dark brown flame leaped up. The flame danced, emitting a heart-pounding high temperature, as if even the air could be ignited.

Chapter 241: Battle, Turtle Spirit Master's Soul Body

He waved his hand, and the flame seemed to have life, surging against the wind and instantly becoming enormous. The shape of the flame gradually condensed and turned into a giant turtle, with sharp fire spikes all over its body, and fangs like blades in its ferocious mouth. The whole body was dark brown, revealing an ancient and wild power.

This giant turtle made of flames slowly rotated in mid-air, each of its flames flashing dangerous light, as if ready to launch a fatal attack on the enemy at any time. In the eyes of the giant turtle, two balls of flames burned fiercely, revealing a wild frenzy and desire for battle.

Xiao Ling's eyes were fixed on the giant turtle formed by the dark brown flames, his eyes flashing with an excitement that could not be concealed. This giant turtle was transformed by the strange fire, and its shape was extremely realistic, almost the same as a real giant turtle. Every detail revealed its unique power and heat, truly living up to the name of "Turtle Spirit Earth Fire".

He couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart: "This is the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire ranked 13th on the Strange Fire List. It is indeed extraordinary. I wonder to what level my cultivation will be able to rise after swallowing it."

Just as Xiao Ling was immersed in his admiration for the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire, the "Turtle Spirit Venerable" on the opposite side had already begun to act.

As he waved his hand, the giant turtle formed by flames seemed to be given life. Its limbs suddenly stepped on the void, and it rushed towards Xiao Ling at a rapid speed with a scorching storm.

The giant turtle's movements were swift and powerful. Every step it took caused the ground of the bronze hall to tremble slightly. Flames bloomed under its feet like blooming flowers of hell.

There were dark brown flames flickering in its eyes, and the flames seemed to contain endless violent power, as if they could burn all obstacles to ashes.

Xiao Ling quickly came back to his senses from his admiration. Facing this sudden attack, he was not panicked at all. He squatted slightly, holding the Meteoric Divine Weapon tightly with both hands, and the fighting spirit in his body was concentrated to the extreme at this moment. The light on the Meteoric Divine Weapon became brighter and brighter, as if responding to the master's fighting spirit, preparing for the upcoming attack.

With a deafening roar, the giant turtle opened its huge mouth full of blade-like fangs, and a dark brown flame gushed out of its mouth, forming a torrent of flames that rushed straight towards Xiao Ling.

Wherever the torrent of flames passed, the air made a sharp whistling sound, and it seemed that even the space was about to be melted by the high temperature.

Xiao Ling's eyes were determined. Facing this raging torrent of flames, he did not retreat but advanced instead. His figure flashed and he rushed forward at an astonishing speed.

His eyes flashed, and his soul power gushed out, like invisible tentacles wrapped around the Falling Divine Weapon. Under his control, the divine weapon showed amazing changes.

In an instant, the Meteorite Weapon seemed to have life. It began to split and reorganize in the void, turning into countless tiny fragments.

These fragments quickly gathered in front of Xiao Ling. They rotated and intertwined in mid-air to form a huge shield.

Mysterious and complex patterns flow on the surface of the shield, and each pattern emits a faint light, like stars twinkling in the night sky, forming an indestructible defense.

With a roar that shook the heavens, the torrent of flames spewed out by the giant turtle finally arrived. It was a dark brown wave of fire, with a temperature high enough to melt gold and iron, violently impacting the newly formed shield.

The moment the flames came into contact with the shield, the entire hall was illuminated in a dark brown color. The high temperature of the flames caused the air to begin to distort and deform, making a sharp whistling sound. However, the shield that was formed by the split and reorganized Meteoric Divine Weapon was like an insurmountable barrier, steadily blocking the violent flames.

The patterns on the shield flashed even brighter under the impact of the flames, as if they were absorbing the power of the flames and converting it into their own defense.

Xiao Ling stood behind the shield with a calm expression. He could clearly feel the close connection between the Meteorite Weapon and his soul. Every vibration and every flow of energy was under his control.

The torrent of flames continued to hit the shield, but it could never break through this solid line of defense. The giant turtle seemed to be surprised, and the flames in its eyes became more intense, but Xiao Ling was ready to fight back.

As the wave of fire gradually dissipated, the shield suddenly made a crisp sound, and then those tiny particles began to peel off the shield. Under Xiao Ling's command, they quickly reorganized and returned to their original spear form.

Xiao Ling held the newly condensed Meteorite Weapon tightly in his right hand and gently waved his left hand. The "Four Spirits Burning Sky Flame" formed by the fusion of four strange fires in his body burst out.

As soon as this strange fire appeared, the temperature of the surrounding air suddenly dropped, as if even the heat of the flame was absorbed and condensed by it. The power it exuded was even stronger than the turtle spirit earth fire on the opposite side.

Under Xiao Ling's control, the "Four Spirits Burning Sky Flame" turned into a giant flaming python, its body dancing flexibly in the air, and pounced straight towards the giant turtle transformed by the "Turtle Spirit Earth Fire", fighting with it.

The giant fire python wrapped around the giant turtle at lightning speed, and the two started a fierce fight in mid-air.

Since the quality of "Four Spirits Burning Sky Flame" is higher than that of "Turtle Spirit Earth Fire", even though Xiao Ling's cultivation is not as good as that of "Turtle Spirit Venerable", his offensive has firmly suppressed the opponent.

The power of the fire python is strong and overbearing. Every time it circles and strangles, the giant turtle's flames are dimmed.

The giant turtle was not willing to be outdone. Its flaming body was still struggling hard under the suppression of the Four Spirits Burning Sky Flame, trying to break free. Its limbs were waving, and its flaming fangs were biting fiercely, and it started a contest with the flaming python.

Not long after, the giant turtle began to show signs of weakness under the fierce attack of the flaming python transformed by the "Four Spirits Burning Sky Flame". Its flames were no longer strong, and after each collision with the flaming python, it seemed to become more sluggish, and the flames flickered, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

Xiao Ling's eyes were as sharp as lightning, and he keenly caught the giant turtle's weakness. He knew that the time was ripe. As his mind moved, the power of the "Four Spirits Burning Sky Flame" became more concentrated, and the body of the flaming giant python drew a series of mysterious trajectories in the air, wrapping the giant turtle tighter, and the strangling force became stronger.

The giant turtle let out a low and painful roar, and the struggle of its limbs gradually weakened, and the flame fangs no longer posed the same threat as before. Finally, in an outburst of power, the "Four Spirits Burning Heaven Flame" completely suppressed the giant turtle, making it unable to launch an effective counterattack.

The "Turtle Spirit Venerable" seemed to realize the disadvantage of the situation, and the dark brown flames in the empty eye sockets jumped, as if he had made a decision. With a slight wave of his hand, the giant turtle's flaming body began to slowly dissipate, turning into dark brown flames, and was taken back into the palm of the "Turtle Spirit Venerable".

As the giant turtle's flame was retracted, the temperature in the hall dropped slightly, but the tense atmosphere did not ease.

After "Turtle Spirit Venerable" took back the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire, the dark brown flames in his empty eye sockets suddenly became unusually active, as if brewing an even more powerful attack.

Xiao Ling planned to press on while the victory was won. With a flash of lightning under his feet, he used Three Thousand Thunders. His figure moved quickly in the hall like a phantom, approaching the direction of "Reverend Turtle Spirit".

"Reverend Turtle Spirit" did not give Xiao Ling too much time to think. As he slowly raised his hands, wisps of dark brown flames began to appear in the air in the hall.

These flames seemed to have life. They slowly gathered together and gradually formed a huge vortex of fire, surrounding "Turtle Spirit Venerable" in the center.

The flames in the vortex became more and more intense, the temperature continued to rise, and even the space began to show signs of distortion.

Such a change forced me to stop approaching him.

At this time, the "Turtle Spirit Venerable" slowly spoke, with a hint of unquestionable majesty in his voice: "Young cultivator, you have proven your strength, but to inherit the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire, you need to show more potential."

As soon as he finished speaking, "Reverend Turtle Spirit" pushed with both hands violently, and the huge vortex of fire began to rotate faster. Then, flames shot towards Xiao Ling like arrows.

Xiao Ling's figure flashed, with the Falling God Weapon in his hand, his fighting spirit and soul power gathered again, forming a series of defensive light curtains. At the same time, the "Four Spirits Burning Heaven Flame" in his body also began to respond, preparing for a new round of offensive.

The flaming arrows collided with Xiao Ling's defensive light screen, unleashing waves of intense energy. Xiao Ling's form shifted constantly, brandishing his Meteoric Divine Weapon, repelling each flaming arrow. However, he could clearly sense that this attack from "Turtle Spirit Venerable" was even more powerful than before.

After continuously resisting dozens of flaming arrows shot by "Turtle Spirit Venerable", Xiao Ling realized that although the other party had profound cultivation, he seemed to lack some experience in flexible response in actual combat, and his perception was also very weak.
