The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast is a top-tier soul beast born to control water, possessing near-ultimate water attributes. Its two tentacle-like appendages on its shoulders are unpredictable, excelling in attack, defense, and speed without any noticeable weaknesses.
More disheartening is that this Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast has already surpassed the 90,000-year cultivation mark. Wu Ming and Chu Qingtian are in the state of absorbing Soul Rings, and forcibly stopping would result in a backlash from the Soul Ring. However, Ling Bai and Han Ruoru, who has yet to recover from her internal injuries, are no match for the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast!
The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast saw the devastation around its lair, with the Pink Lady Clan lying dead and blood flowing in rivers. The three Ten-Thousand-Year Scorpion Soul Beasts had died in tragic conditions. It then noticed Ling Bai and the others. The hatred soul beasts have for soul masters is a given, and the pair of light blue beast eyes immediately filled with anger. The two tentacles shot out like giant pythons.
"Swoosh—"
The Shimmering Gold Rope entangled with the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast's tentacles. The golden and blue colors intertwined like competing ropes, emitting a grating sound that made one's teeth ache. Han Ruoru turned her head to look at Ling Bai, speaking urgently:
"Junior Brother, take them and go. I'll stay and hold off the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast!"
"Senior Sister..."
Before Ling Bai could finish, Han Ruoru interrupted him loudly: "This guy is at the level of a Soul Douluo, a battle you can't participate in. If you don't leave, you'll be endangering Ming'er and Chu Qingtian! Go first, I won't fight to the death; I'll find an opportunity to escape and rejoin you!"
"Alright!"
Ling Bai didn't argue further. After all, Wu Ming and Chu Qingtian were currently too fragile, and any involvement in the battle could have disastrous consequences.
Angel Soul Power enveloped the two, and Ling Bai took one last deep look at Han Ruoru and the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast. He then unfurled his Angel Wings and sped away toward the mixed zone of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Ling Bai and the others disappeared into the distance, leaving Han Ruoru alone to face the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast. Her expression was grave, as she hadn't expected their situation to mirror Zhang Lexuan's, encountering a soul beast they couldn't match.
At the same time, she felt a sense of relief. This Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast wasn't a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. Even with her internal injuries, she could at least hold it off for twenty minutes, giving Ling Bai enough time to lead Wu Ming and Chu Qingtian to safety!
"Lexuan told me that in her late-night reveries, she always recalled the juniors who fell before her. She deeply regretted not protecting her younger siblings as the senior sister of the Inner Courtyard. Fortunately, heaven has been kind to me, and I can protect the ones I want to!"
Seven Soul Rings—yellow, purple, black—suddenly rose. Han Ruoru looked at the massive soul beast behind her, which radiated a sun-like blue light, as the Shimmering Gold Rope twisted and danced fearlessly!
On the other side, Ling Bai led the two out of the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest into the mixed zone. Here, there weren't many powerful ten-thousand-year soul beasts, and with the Spider Empress's premonition, they could predict dangers. They were safe.
As for Han Ruoru...
Water nourishes all things without contention, encompassing everything. Although its combat power isn't as strong as that of sacred, lightning, or fire, water is one of the most tenacious attributes in the world.
Moreover, the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast had an overwhelming cultivation advantage. The probability of Han Ruoru escaping smoothly... was slim!
Sacrificing others to gain a chance at survival, especially a close senior sister, Ling Bai felt a sense of shame for the first time in over a decade, a feeling that almost consumed him. His fists clenched, veins bulging. He made a decision instantly. Beneath Chu Qingtian and Wu Ming's bodies, layers of glowing Big Dipper Formation Diagrams overlapped, and the Holy Angel Sword was inserted into the central array eye. After making all the preparations, he returned to the battlefield!
...
"Boom—"
The forest near the lake was shrouded in water mist. After a loud explosion, Han Ruoru was sent flying, but instead of hitting the solid ground, she landed in a cold, almost icy embrace.
Han Ruoru was stunned for a moment, then turned around to see who had caught her and shouted angrily: "Ling Bai, are you crazy? Why did you come back?"
In the eleven months since Ling Bai entered the Shrek Academy, this was the first time Han Ruoru had called him by his name, clearly indicating her extreme anger.
"Senior Sister, do you want us to live on by treading on your flesh and blood, and for the Shrek Academy to have three people who will regret it for the rest of their lives?"
Ling Bai released Han Ruoru, and his back seemed to have eight bulges ready to burst through his clothes. Dark clouds spread over the sky, like a tide covering the sunlight. He stood there calmly, like a towering mountain.
"This is my duty, protecting you is the senior sister's responsibility!" Han Ruoru bit her red lips, struggling to suppress the surging blood and qi within her.
"That's right, and it's also the junior brother's duty to protect the senior sister. Please rest assured, I've sent Senior Sister Wu and Qingtian to a safe place and set up five layers of luminous spirit arrays and the Holy Angel Sword as defense. The rest, I'll face it with you. Not to die together, but to live together!"
"Swoosh—"
In Han Ruoru's shocked gaze, eight wicked purple-black spider spears burst out of his back. Each spear was over three meters long, exuding a deathly aura. Two Soul Rings—one gray and one black—shone brightly!
The Death Prison Spider Empress had possessed him!
The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast strolled over, only to find that the human woman it had been纠缠 had been rescued by the human man who had fled earlier. The latter's blood-red eyes glowed in the mist, filled with an extreme and mad killing intent. The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast felt as if a large hand was gripping its heart, ready to crush it into pieces with the slightest provocation!
"Roar!!!"
The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast opened its massive mouth and roared to the sky, the aura of the King of Beasts and the 90,000-year-old soul power spreading in all directions, creating ripples. Its blue eyes stared at Ling Bai with the intensity of an irreconcilable enemy. A mere soul master of over fifty levels dared to have such murderous thoughts against it—what a disgrace!
The two tentacles extending from its shoulders drew a perfect circle in the air, forming a new sun of water, reflecting a bluish-white light that surpassed the real sunlight!
"Devour! Soul!"
The Death Prison Scythe slashed through, shattering the sky and raining down water droplets. Through the falling water, Han Ruoru saw the purple-black cracks spreading from Ling Bai's white neck to his face, like the veins of a spider web.
Since the black Soul Ring of the ten-thousand-year Pink Lady Queen, countless Soul Rings of Pink Ladies had flooded into Ling Bai's body. The uncontrolled absorption of Soul Rings can last for two hours, so they hadn't dissipated yet. The Soul Devouring of over a thousand Soul Rings gave him the chance to challenge the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast!
Fresh red blood beads seeped through his skin, his body absorbing the Soul Rings to the extreme. Ling Bai raised his head, his blood-red eyes almost dripping blood, as if an evil demon was awakening within him, taking over the originally radiant and righteous angelic body!
"An Evil Spirit Soul?!"
Han Ruoru's jade-like face instantly turned pale. She never imagined that Ling Bai had a dual soul, and even more shockingly, his second soul was an Evil Spirit Soul!
The Six-Winged Angel and the Evil Spirit Soul coexisting, a phenomenon that would make the greatest theoretical masters of the continent slap themselves, exclaiming that it was impossible, absolutely impossible!
The Six-Winged Angel is a symbol of sanctity, with the innate mission to expel evil. How could it coexist with an Evil Spirit Soul?
The undeniable fact stood before them—Ling Bai was a monstrous being who embraced both sanctity and evil!
"Senior Sister, we can't choose our innate abilities. Overthinking it serves no purpose. The only thing you need to do is one thing—cooperate with me and kill it!"
Ling Bai's tone became more domineering, the influence of the Death Prison Spider Empress's possession making him act more recklessly and without restraint!
Rough words, but the truth. Han Ruoru nodded heavily. No matter what the answer was, they had to survive first!
The sudden surge of their auras made the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast pause, and then a tall, blue shadow rose behind it. It was a majestic and dignified lion, whose mouth opened and let out a silent roar, the ground trembling, and the wind in the area seemed trapped, only swirling around, leaving the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast in absolute silence!
The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast's innate soul skill, Azure Sky Reflection!
A control-type soul skill, Azure Sky Reflection causes dizziness and forced weakness within its range, while enhancing the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast's abilities to a certain extent!
The best way to counter a control-type skill is with another control skill. Han Ruoru's sixth and seventh Soul Rings shone simultaneously, her body transforming into countless gold and silver halos. The halos then turned horizontal and surged violently, like a tidal wave, filling the air with intense soul power fluctuations, making the lion of Azure Sky Reflection appear illusory!
Shimmering Gold Rope's sixth soul skill, Shimmering Golden Wave!
A full-range group control soul skill, primarily for repelling. In her soul true body state, Shimmering Golden Wave could negate most of the negative effects of Azure Sky Reflection!
Ling Bai took a deep breath, the Death Prison Spider Spears and the Death Prison Scythe glowing with evil light. He exhaled and stomped the ground, using the impact to rush toward the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast. The ten-thousand-year black Soul Ring around his body glowed brightly, and the Death Prison Scythe converged in front of his chest, while the eight Death Prison Spider Spears transformed into eight bloody weapons—swords, spears, axes, and halberds!
The Death Prison Spider Empress's second soul skill, Extreme Punishment!
If the blood-soaked aura of the Pink Lady Clan was like a slaughterhouse, then the Extreme Punishment from the Dark Empress You Luo was like the punishment of the underworld!
White mist rose from Ling Bai's body, his blood flowing like a river, and unparalleled soul power surged through his limbs. This was the power brought by the Death Prison Spider Empress's ultimate soul devouring—beautiful and powerful!
The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast was momentarily stunned by Ling Bai, trying to retreat but it was too late. The eight different Death Prison Spider Spears pierced through its chest!
A deafening howl echoed, and the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast endured the Extreme Punishment. It recalled a battle with a ten-thousand-year-old Dark Golden Claw Bear a hundred years ago, the feeling of being hit in the chest by the Dark Golden Claw, the cracking sound of bones and flesh, and the relentless destruction of every cell by the extreme death!
In the next second, an unstoppable water pillar with immense force launched Ling Bai into the air like a cannonball, creating a sonic boom as he was hurled skyward!
The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast's innate soul skill, Azure Sea Tide!
Ling Bai rolled dozens of times in mid-air and was about to hit the ground when Han Ruoru supported him with the Shimmering Gold Rope. Even so, his legs dragged two furrows on the ground upon landing. If not for his undying body, his legs would have been broken and he would have fallen to his knees.
"Realm of Death."
A purple-black field instantly enveloped the battlefield. The initial Soul Devouring was a test on the edge of sanity, but now, with the innate field Realm of Death enhancing it, it meant Ling Bai had unleashed the full power of the Death Prison Spider Empress. A more massive Death Prison Spider Empress shadow rose, its eyes filled with a bloodthirsty hunting gaze!
The sky began to rain.
With the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast's anger and roars, dark clouds gathered, and the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast no longer underestimated these two puny humans. It was determined to fight to the death, charging at them like a natural disaster, driving the Azure Sea Tide to its limit!
Gold and silver light flickered, and the Shimmering Gold Ropes glowed, the suspended raindrops pausing as if frozen in time, the clear water droplets reflecting the surrounding shadows like curved spherical mirrors, slowing down the speed of the Azure Sea Tide.
Ling Bai moved as well, the raindrops and mist parting as the Death Prison Scythe slashed, the black scythe blade above the blue-white mist and the golden Shimmering Gold Rope below, the final slash cutting through the air in a tragic black curve, like the boundary between the sea and the sky!
Death Prison Scythe—Execution!
In the blink of an eye, Han Ruoru saw the blue-white tide part, the waves curling at the top. The human and the beast were resolute, the scythe and the tentacle piercing each other's hearts simultaneously, neither showing any sign of cowardice or retreat, leading to the most brutal scene.
The Realm of Death dissipated, and Ling Bai fell like a leaf, caught by Han Ruoru as the Shimmering Gold Rope transformed back. She tightly embraced him.
The Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast crashed into the ground with a loud thud, spewing blood from its mouth, the massive black wound on its chest telling the witnesses of the terrifying blow it had received. It struggled to stand, determined to die after the human!
Ling Bai also refused Han Ruoru's support, covering his heart and shakily standing up. They faced each other, silently waiting for one to fall. After a while, looking at the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast with fading eyes, Ling Bai suddenly smiled:
"Fool, only you will die."
The blood on the ground defied gravity, flowing back into the terrifying wound on his chest, visibly healing at an alarming rate. For one who possesses ultimate death, even a ruptured heart isn't a fatal injury. A blow to the head from the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast would be far more lethal than a pierced heart.
"Senior Sister, finish it."
The Shimmering Gold Rope slithered into the Blue Lion Azure Sky Beast's head, destroying its neural center. In extreme hatred and unwillingness, a 90,000-year-old soul beast fell.
"It suits you, absorb it quickly, Senior Sister."
"No, that's not important!"
Han Ruoru shook her head slowly but firmly, her gaze intense:
"Junior Brother, is there anything you want to tell me?"
