Legend of the Dragon King: I really didn't mean to provoke them!

If the three of them explode, something bad will happen to them all.

Hehe, congratulations to the instigator for triggering the hidden character, the top-tier Demon King's protector—

Dancing in the sky.

Wu Changkong would never bully the weak; she would just beat up the young, the old, and the young all at once.

Xie Xie gave Tang Wulin no chance to refute him. His eyes were fierce as knives, and the last bit of light and shadow soul power around him exploded without reservation.

Golden light and dark shadow elements intertwined wildly around him, and the auras of the light and shadow creatures rose simultaneously. Two dragon-shaped phantoms faintly appeared behind him.

A ray of light and a shadow intertwine.

An aura far exceeding his current soul power level suddenly spread out.

This is his trump card, one he's never used since breaking through to the second ring, and today is the first time he's used it.

This second soul skill is a fusion technique that uses one's own soul power as a guide, with the two dragons of light and shadow restraining each other. It can not only trap the opponent, but also detonate the dual soul power to cause severe damage.

However, the price is also extremely high. After using it, he will be completely depleted of his soul power and will no longer be able to use teleportation. He will be at the mercy of the human-faced spider.

The pale golden light soul power and the blackish-red dark soul power, like two mad dragons breaking free of their shackles, surged wildly from Xie Xie's limbs and bones, swirling and coiling around him, clearly distinct yet perfectly blended.

The golden light was warm yet intense, while the black shadows were cold and sharp. Two dragon-shaped phantoms slowly coalesced behind him, becoming increasingly clear.

The phantoms of Guangzai and Yingzai appeared simultaneously beside Xie Xie, their bodies beginning to swell.

The scales of the two young dragons gradually became firmer, their bodies transformed into long and agile forms, the dragon horns on their foreheads forked slightly, and their dragon wings gradually unfolded.

The dragon was entirely gilded, its scales gleaming, and its mouth was slightly open, scattering fine golden light.

The Shadow Dragon was jet black, its body agile and ghostly, its tail sweeping out swirling currents of shadow.

One light and one shadow, one bright and one dark.

The two phantom dragons raised their heads and swung their tails, emitting a silent dragon roar. Their imposing aura caused the surrounding air to tremble slightly, and even the human-faced demon spider opposite them was stunned into stopping in its tracks by this sudden dragon might.

"Second Soul Skill Fusion Technique—"

"Twin Dragons, Soul-Locking Explosion!"

Xie Xie suddenly opened his arms wide, then slammed them together, palms facing each other, his fingertips emitting a dazzling two-colored light.

The two dragons of light and shadow behind him instantly merged into one, transforming into a golden and black beam of light over ten feet thick.

Within the pillar of light, the dragon's shadow surged and writhed, light and shadow intertwining and clashing, carrying a sharp aura that could lock souls and take lives, and blasted straight toward the human-faced demon spider!

Chapter 64 The Birth of a Genius

"Quit now!!"

Xie Xie turned around and roared, his face as pale as paper, and a trace of blood had already spilled from the corner of his mouth, a sign of excessive exhaustion of his soul power.

Tang Wulin's eyes were bloodshot.

Watching Xie Xie's resolute back, he felt as if he had been hit hard in the chest by a heavy hammer, the pain almost suffocating him.

He bent down to pick up the thousand-forged silver hammer from the ground, his roar trembling:

"I want to be with you! We'll go together!"

He had just taken a step when Gu Yue suddenly grabbed his wrist tightly.

Gu Yue's face was also pale, and although her usually cold eyes were covered with a layer of fine tears, they were more determined than ever.

She clung tightly to Tang Wulin, her voice trembling but firm: "This is the Spirit Ascension Platform, Xie Xie will be fine. We need to get out of here quickly, or we'll all perish here!"

“But Xie Xie…” Tang Wulin struggled, tears blurring his vision, his knuckles turning white from clenching his fists so tightly.

He knew it in his heart.

Although the injuries inside the Ascension Platform were real, they weren't fatal. But seeing Xie Xie like this still made him panic.

Xie Xie in front of him was about to explode. This was supposed to be the Spirit Ascension Platform, not a place where people were actually going to die. These two were acting like it was a matter of life and death.

Why the hell can't you just quit already?!

"He'll be fine. Let's go outside. There are staff from the Ascension Platform outside; they'll know what to do."

Gu Yue gritted her teeth and, before Tang Wulin could retort, raised her hand and pressed the rescue signal device on his Soul Master bracelet. A dazzling white light instantly enveloped Tang Wulin.

Seeing Tang Wulin disappear, Gu Yue immediately activated her distress signal.

The white light grew brighter and brighter, and just before it completely engulfed her, Gu Yue shouted with all her might, "Xie Xie, we're waiting for you outside!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yue's figure completely merged into the white light and disappeared.

Sensing that the two people's marks had completely disappeared, Xie Xie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't easy; those two finally finished their performance.

If we delay any longer, forget about saving them; I might even perish here myself. Without the ties between these two—

He can finally go all out without any scruples!

Xie Xie's eyes suddenly lit up, and the moment the beam of light hit the ground, it transformed into a huge net of light and shadow dragon patterns, binding the massive body of the human-faced demon spider tightly from top to bottom!

Golden chains bound its limbs, and shadow chains sealed its soul power.

As the spider struggled, the chains tightened, light elements scorched its venomous body, and shadow elements tore apart its hard exoskeleton.

The excruciating pain caused the spider-faced demon to let out a shrill scream, its eight scarlet eyes filled with terror.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Xie shouted in a low voice:

"burst!"

His voice was weak from exhaustion, yet it carried a resolute ruthlessness.

The chains of light and shadow binding the human-faced spider exploded with a deafening roar!

A shockwave, a blend of gold and black, emanated from the human-faced spider and spread out like a tsunami, blasting a shallow crater into the ground. Dead leaves, pebbles, and decaying branches were all swept away by the blast, flying everywhere.

The terrifying force sent the human-faced spider flying.

The facial features on its back were distorted by the explosion, and dark green venom splattered everywhere, rendering it incapable of launching a surprise attack for a short period of time.

The moment Xie Xie's soul skill exploded, the light around his body suddenly went out, and the phantom images of the twin dragons of light and shadow completely dissipated.

With both his soul power and mental energy depleted, he was completely exhausted, swayed a few times, and almost collapsed to the ground.

With his last ounce of strength, Xie Xie decisively activated the rescue signal.

……

Xie Xie felt his consciousness sink into an endless darkness, as if he had suddenly fallen into a cold, bone-chilling deep sea, surrounded by a thick, inky void, making it difficult to breathe.

His body sank slowly downwards, and a feeling of suffocation washed over him like a tidal wave.

Just as he was about to completely succumb, a warm and familiar force suddenly and steadily supported his body.

A soft, clear murmur, filled with tender concern, reached my ears.

It's Shadow Boy.

The next moment, the pitch-black shadow element cleaved through the darkness like a sharp blade, forcefully clearing a path ahead.

The shadowy figure was faintly visible ahead.

That small body burst forth with a reassuring power, doing everything in its power to clear a path for him.

The light transformed into a soft, golden glow, gently enveloping Xie Xie's body and lifting him upwards.

The warmth of the light dispelled the coldness of the deep sea, gradually carrying him out of that boundless darkness.

As Xie Xie took his first breath of fresh air, he suddenly opened his eyes.

The blinding white light rushed towards him, causing him to squint instinctively, unable to open his eyes fully, only able to blink slightly.

After a long pause, my blurred vision gradually focused, and the familiar surroundings slowly became clear.

Immediately afterwards, concerned voices surrounded him, noisy yet heartwarming.

"Xie Xie, are you alright?!"

"Brother Xie, you're amazing! How are you? Are you feeling alright?"

"Don't argue, let him calm down, don't rush him."

"..."

Xie Xie moved his fingers slightly, stiffly raised his eyelids, and when his vision became clear, he immediately saw the people surrounding the recovery pod.

Tang Wulin and Gu Yue had red eyes, while Zhang Yangzi's face was a mixture of excitement and worry.

While pressing down on Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi cast a concerned glance at him.

A staff member from the Spirit Pagoda stood to the side, holding a soul power detector, and was carefully observing his various data.

Behind the crowd, Wu Changkong still had his hands in his pockets.

But her usually aloof face was tense at this moment, clearly indicating that she had been guarding this place all along.

Xie Xie's throat moved, his voice still a little hoarse and dry, carrying the weakness of someone just waking up:

"I'm... out?"

He propped himself up and slowly sat up.

Xie Xie's soul power and mental energy were severely depleted, and he was still very weak, even feeling a little dizzy.

Tang Wulin could no longer suppress his excitement and lingering fear. Before Xie Xie could sit up completely, he suddenly stepped forward and hugged him tightly.

His strength was almost out of control, filled with the ecstatic joy of regaining what he had lost.

Tang Wulin clung tightly to Xie Xie's back, his voice choked with lingering fear: "You scared me to death, Xie Xie! Don't do that again. We promised to be together..."

You can't leave me alone!

Xie Xie was so choked that he almost died without being able to catch his breath.

"You, let go..."

"I won't let go, I'll never let go again!"

"I'm going to be strangled to death by you!!"

Tang Wulin froze, hastily releasing his arm. A look of panic instantly crossed his face as he saw Xie Xie's pale face and repeatedly apologized, "I'm...I'm sorry! I didn't mean to..."

The purple-haired staff member stared intently at the five people gathered together.

Especially when she looked at Xie Xie, the fiery look in her eyes could burn a person through.

Although Tang Wulin and Gu Yue also performed very well, in the eyes of this purple-haired staff member, they were no match for Xie Xie.

Nine years old, a second-ring Grand Soul Master.

One person could beat the hundred-year-old human-faced demon spider, which even the Three Soul Venerables would avoid, into such a state.

He is absolutely a genius, one in a million!

If such a genius joins the Spirit Pagoda, he will definitely be a pillar of the Spirit Pagoda in the future, and even I will be able to gain merit for recommending him!

Chapter 65 Tang Wulin's happiness was built on the suffering of both of them.

Wu Changkong walked slowly to the five people and said calmly, "From today onwards, the five of you will be a combat team. Captain Tang Wulin, Vice Captain Xie Xie. Let's go."

After saying that, she took the lead and walked towards the elevator.

The remaining five people looked at each other in bewilderment.

Long Hengxu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to take out a handkerchief, and wiped the cold sweat seeping from his forehead with some embarrassment.

Despite Wu Changkong's cold and indifferent demeanor, Long Hengxu could clearly sense the fierce killing intent that suddenly erupted from her when Xie Xie was in danger, even from more than ten meters away.

Considering Xie Xie's physical condition, the group rested in the hall for fifteen minutes before setting off back to the academy.
