Douluo Dalu - Volume 01-48

by Tang Jia San Shao

  In terms of strength, even back when Xiao Wu was still a hundred thousand year spirit beast, she was still far from equal to these two brothers. But from childhood, Xiao Wu was still a few years older than them. When the Sky Blue Bull Serpent was still a Small Blue Serpent, Xiao Wu saved him. In the hearts of these two brothers, Xiao Wu was like their big sister. Even if they later grew stronger than her, this relationship had never changed.

  Each threat to Xiao Wu was like a threat to them, it had to be strangled.

  “Final move.”

  Ghost Douluo suddenly shouted loudly. A different tint from the black he usually released was abruptly emitted from within him.

  That was a glittering silver flame, soaring high in practically an instant. And next to him, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan simultaneously emitted a golden flame. At this moment, both their nine rings flared practically simultaneously, rendering their gold and silver flames even more dazzling and radiant.

  Facing each other, four hands grasped each other, Gui Mei and Yue Guan’s bodies abruptly merging, their altogether eighteen spirit rings abruptly merging together, one massive gold and silver colored ring of light quietly flying out.

  Tang San saw a flash before his eyes. Suddenly, heaven and earth seemed to have turned gold and silver, everything in the surroundings also seemingly completely still at this moment. Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo’s bodies had both disappeared as that gold and silver ring of light formed, and that giant ring of light had already flown into the sky, in the blink of an eye becoming a more than hundred meter in diameter giant halo. At this moment, even the soaring Titan Giant Ape had also become absolutely still in midair. The blue light the Sky Blue Bull Python just spit out was also frozen.

  The words ‘spirit fusion ability’ abruptly appeared in Tang San’s mind, his originally exceedingly relaxed heart tightened in an instant.

  How formidable was a spirit fusion ability formed by two Title Douluo? Even though the Sky Blue Bull Python was so powerful it amazed him, could these two formidable spirit beasts truly resist the spirit fusion ability of two Title Douluo?

  “We can only trap these two spirit beasts for a while, grab that rabbit immediately and leave. Quick.”

  Ghost Douluo’s strained voice echoed from the gold and silver ring of light. The next moment, the brilliance abruptly converged, the Sky Blue Bull Puthon and the Titan Giant Ape both had a layer of gold and silver light, rigidly trapped within that narrow range.

  Strangely, the range confining the Titan Giant Ape was still in the air, showing just how formidable this gold and silver ring shaped spirit fusion ability was.

  Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo always operated together, not only because they had a close relationship, but even more importantly this spirit fusion ability. This in itself was a great secret of Spirit Hall. In the current Continent, there were very few Spirit Masters capable of holding a spirit fusion ability, and Title Douluo possessing spirit fusion abilities were even rarer. The full name of this gold and silver glittering ring of light before them was Two Level Immobilization Domain, it was also a dual attribute domain, able to simultaneously immobilize the opponent’s abilities and movements.

  Even though the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python were powerful, confronting a dual attributed domain with such excessively powerful control power, even they would end up temporarily restrained.

  Of course, in order to fully use this ability, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo also had to throw in their complete mental and physical efforts. When their spirit power was unable to endure, this domain would naturally also be rescinded. If there was still a Title Douluo level power here, cooperating with the Two Level Immobilization Domain’s effect, they could very possibly have inflicted heavy injuries on the two great forest kinds. If there were two Title Douluo, they might kill them. This was where this domain was ferocious.

  Of course, the reason why Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo could succeed, was also that the two great spirit beasts had contemptuously not prepared adequately.

  Unfortunately, there were just some Spirit Sages with Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo. Their strength basically wasn’t enough to break their defenses, let alone injuring the two great spirit beasts.

  Plentiful combat experience made the thinking of the two Title Douluo extremely clear. It was clearly impossible for them to defeat the two great spirit beast powers by contending with them from the front, however, relying on their spirit fusion ability, they could successfully trap the spirit beasts, then even if their strength was formidable, it was still impossible to easily get free of this domain. But that Xiao Wu wasn’t strong, still just in the human form youngling stage. With more than twenty Spirit Master experts, as long as they could catch her and quickly retreat, they would have reached their goal. In the retreat, even if the two great spirit beasts could pursue, they could still use her to coerce them.

  As Ghost Douluo’s orders fell and the two great spirit beasts were simultaneously trapped, the first to respond wasn’t Spirit Hall’s people, but rather Tang San.

  Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo had admittedly planned very well, the two great spirit beasts had also been trapped due to their excessive contempt. However, they had still failed to account for Tang San.

  The moment Ghost Douluo gave the orders, Tang San began to move.

  His arm had all along hung over Xie Yue’s shoulders, with Ghost Douluo’s orders, Tang San’s arm abruptly tightened over Xie Yue’s shoulders, forefinger turning a jade color, poking directly at Xie Yue’s chest.

  This point was very carefully chosen, just hitting Xie Yue’s shan zhong acupuncture point. As a hidden weapons expert, Tang San’s familiarity and precision regarding acupuncture points was unquestionable.

  Shan zhong acupuncture point. Connecting meridian: conception vessel, the ample great yang and lesser yin, engaging greater yin and lesser yang; the meeting point of the conception vessel. After being struck, inner qi scatters, heart in disorder, mind confused. One of the body’s thirty six great acupuncture points.

  To Xie Yue, Tang San’s actions were really too sudden. He basically had no time to react, the spirit power he just gathered to release his spirit scattering in a moment, his chest turned stuffy, his whole body already falling into Tang San’s arms.

  Hu Liena was after all pretty good to Tang San. Xie Yue was also her elder brother, so Tang San’s actions weren’t a killing move. Of course, this was even more related to him requiring his full strength to deal with even more people.

  Left hand dealing with Xie Yue, his right hand abruptly released two long since prepared Cluster Life Taking Soul Chasing Balls. With a resounding crack, smoke rose in front of him and Xie Yue, countless tiny poison needles flying out, immediately enveloping six Spirit Sages in front.

  Hidden weapons were originally used for sneak attacks, and only in a sneak attack could hidden weapons release their greatest potential. The abruptly rising change in the situation caught people unprepared. The purpose of the Cluster Life Taking Soul Chasing Balls’ tiny needles was to break inner Big Dipper Qi. In this world, their target was naturally protective spirit power. Even though these Spirit Sages had already released their spirits, they didn’t use protective spirit abilities. With a series of muffled grunts, the six Spirit Sages in front of Tang San abruptly fell to the ground.

  Being struck by Cluster Life Taking Soul Chasing Ball poison needles at such close range, even immortals would find it difficult to save themselves.

  “What are you doing?”

  Hu Liena cried out in alarm.

  Xie Yue’s body was thrown away by Tang San, falling straight at Hu Liena. At the same time he flickered as if illusory, countless hidden weapons sprinkling from his hands. The back of his jacket instantly split open, glinting blue golden Eight Spider Lances excitedly coming out.

  Azure divine light shot from his eyes like lightning, blasting at one Spirit Sage. Even though that Spirit Sage had already reacted,
how might even his fastest Spirit Ability use be faster han Purple God Light? Amidst an explosive blast, another one collapsed. Even though he wasn’t dead, he had lost the ability to fight.

  Eight Spider Lances braced against the ground in a flash, Blue Silver and Deathgod Domains simultaneously spreading out, the blue silver grass on the ground instantly growing wildly. Tang San’s five spirit rings appeared simultaneously, the fourth spirit ring radiating brilliance, Blue Silver Prison variant ability, Blue Silver Thrust, activating.

  All this came too suddenly, Tang San had erupted with almost his full capability in just a split second. Seven Spirit Sages fell under his sneak attack, further adding Xie Yue with his great acupuncture point struck, the twenty three Spirit Hall experts had instantly lose eight. Even though it was impossible for the Blue Silver Thrust formation to harm the others once prepared, the delaying effect still gave Tang San enough time to separate from them.

  Eight Spider Lances braced, and the next moment they had already pushed Tang San into a high leap. The Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone flying ability launched in midair, making him fly in Xiao Wu’s direction like a meteor catching up to the moon.

  “Xiao Wu, let’s go.”

  Tang San shouted loudly, a strand of Blue Silver Grass already thrown out towards Xiao Wu.

  His actions were really too fast. WHen Xiao Wu noticed, it was already when countless poison needles were revealed, striking and killing six Spirit Sages.

  Even if Tang San’s appearance had changed, his temperament had changed, there were still a great many things that wouldn’t change.

  The fourth spirit ability ten thousand year spirit ring, formidable hidden weapons, the changed Eight Spider Lances and Blue Silver Grass. These were all marks of his identity, and even more importantly, the split second Tang San had used Eight Spider Lances to shoot himself out, his gaze had already met Xiao Wu’s in the air.

  His appearance had changed, his temperament had changed, but the expression in his eyes didn’t change, especially the expression when Tang San looked at Xiao Wu.

  Xiao Wu’s gaze was no longer serene, even more without the quiet from before. Even the recovering large number of Spirit Hall experts already pursuing was unable to influence the joy overflowing her heart.

  Without any resistance, letting that Blue Silver Emperor twist around her slender waist, Xiao Wu’s long and slender legs leapt, sending her up to meet Tang San.

  “Ge——”

  This shout hadn’t been heard for five years, both their appearances had changed, but the sincere feelings held in this should hadn’t changed a fraction. Tang San was still Tang San, Xiao Wu was also still Xiao Wu. The moment their gazes met, Tang San’s throat felt as if choked by something.

  ‘I will protect her, even if it costs me my life.’

  This was the only thought in Tang San’s heart right now. The next moment, with a pull of the Blue Silver Emperor, their bodies met in midair.

  Arms lightly stretching, that delicate body Tang San had missed for five years was held to his chest. Urging the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone flying ability with his full strength, he was pushed like a bolt of lightning to penetrate the dense forest in front.

  “Bastard. Kill him.”

  Yan shouted furiously, chasing swiftly in Tang San’s direction with the remaining thirteen Spirit Sages. The three flying Spirit Masters among the Spirit Sages immediately took to the air, forming an air to surface formation with the other Spirit Masters, quickly going in pursuit.

  Holding tightly on Tang San’s neck, Xiao Wu’s heart beat violently. When Da Ming and Er Ming had been trapped by the two Title Douluo, she already had an unclear premonition. She of course knew that it was impossible for the current her to contend against the remaining Spirit Hall experts.

  At that moment, what she had thought of wasn’t her own safety, but only one thought. If, before she died, she could see Tang San again, then she could still die without regret.

  And when that thought still hadn’t faded from her mind, those familiar Eight Spider Lances, familiar hidden weapons, and still those familiar eyes, had already appeared in front of her.

  At this moment, buried in that warm embrace, Xiao Wu’s heart was completely steeped in happiness.

  Back after she originally left Tang San, she had thought of many, many things. She had also once despaired when thinking she might never see Tang San again. But even with the slightest chance, she would still never give up. Finally seeing her beloved again, Xiao Wu felt that even if she were to die right now on the spot, all this would still be worth it.

  Both hands tightly wound around Tang San’s neck, feeling his changed aura and equally warm embrace, Xiao Wu was already a bit silly.

  But right now Tang San still didn’t have time to be happy. Bringing Xiao Wu to swiftly enter the forest, he immediately felt at least ten auras locking in on him. At this moment he couldn’t pause, he could only run into the forest.

  If the Sky Blue Bull Serpent and the Titan Giant Ape could promptly break free of that spirit fusion ability that would of course be good, but he couldn’t place his hopes on them. The more than ten Spirit Sages behind him were powerful, with such strength, even he and Xiao Wu would still be easily drowned. His flying speed wasn’t necessarily the fastest, especially within the forest. Tang San basically didn’t dare leave the range of the trees, otherwise he’d immediately become the target of multitudes of arrows in the air.

  Feeling the auras behind him swiftly approach, he gave up on flying, floating to the ground, both hands drawing Xiao Wu close, Eight Spider Lances replaced his feet, swiftly advancing. At the same time, his spiritual force spread out completely, examining the movements of the pursuit behind them. Whenever the enemies wanted to surround them, he could find the best direction to escape.

  There were altogether fourteen people chasing, Golden Generation’s Yan, as well as thirteen Spirit Sage level Spirit Hall experts.

  Hu Liena stayed where she was without moving. After catching her brother, she discovered that Xie Yue’s complexion was pale, already unconscious. This wasn’t the reason she didn’t go to chase Tang San and Xiao Wu. Because she didn’t want to believe that everything that had happened in front of her was real.

  With Tang San’s Eight Spider Lances on his back, when the Blue Silver Grass and hidden weapons simultaneously erupted, with her intelligence, how couldn’t she make the connection between this man who had been branded in her heart and mind and the one who dealt Spirit Hall such enormous humiliation, Tang San. Connecting all kinds of things in the pasts, the riddles in her heart suddenly opened up in a flash of understanding. But the more it was like this, the more intense the pain in her heart became. In her blank pain, she no longer knew what she should do.

  Yan was currently already in an extreme rage. What he wanted to do right now was tear Tang San into ten thousand pieces. Seven Spirit Sages, those were seven Spirit Sages exhaustively cultivated by Spirit Hall! Right now their survival was unknown.

  Chapter 160: Forest Battle To The Death

  And in fact, after Tang San’s personally modulated poison entered the body, besides the one struck by Purple God Light, the other six Spirit Sages were already completely out of luck.

  The power of Tang Sect’s secret lore was really too great in a sneak attack.

  Tang San was very fast, with the boost of the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone as well as the increase of Eight Spider Lances ignoring terrain, his speed had already reached the pinnacle. But the ones chasing him were still Spirit Sage level powers. There was no lack of agility attack type Spirit Masters among them. With them in pursuit, the distance between both sides was still constantly closing.

  Tang San’s Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step was admittedly wondrous, but Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step was best at dodging, not running.

  Tang San very clearly knew that in the world of his old life, there were some movement arts that were more suited to this kind of situation than Ghost Shadow P
erplexing Step, like Shaolin’s Eight Step Catching Cicada as well as a kind of Transient Light Passing Shadow movement art. However, what use were these right now? All he could do was only constantly move forwards.

  Having reached the Spirit Sage level, if the qi locked on the opponent, as long as they didn’t leave a certain range, it was impossible to lose them. Among the thirteen Spirit Sages there were altogether five agility attack type Spirit Masters. The five spread into a semi circle, half surrounding them like lightning.

  Let alone these five being able to kill Tang San and capture Xiao Wu, even if they couldn’t as long as they could tangle with Tang San for a while, allowing their companions to catch up from behind, the outcome would still be the same.

  The longer he confronted crises, the sharper Tang San’s mind became. Brain operating rapidly, thinking about ways to get out of the current danger.

  Gradually, they had already left the territory of the two great spirit beast kings, and in the surroundings also began to appear the auras of spirit beasts. To Tang San and Xiao Wu, this wasn’t any good news. With their present speed, if they were stopped just for a moment by alerted spirit beasts, the enemies behind them would swiftly catch up.

  “Ge.”

  Xiao Wu softly called out.

  Tang San lowered his head. His spiritual force found the path forward, and the effect of his eyes was on the contrary not as clear.

  Using a hand to softly coil Xiao Wu’s long hair, Tang San pulled her in tight,

  “As long as I still live, I won’t ever let them harm you.”

  Saying so, Tang San’s speed forward suddenly dropped. His body was abruptly raised outright, the top four Eight Spider Lances thrusting into the trunks of two large trees ahead, bringing him across the trees like a giant spider, successively crossing several great trees.

  Tang San’s movements naturally had a destination, he was circling to one side. The five people chasing closest behind moved held a semicircular pattern. He was currently circling to one side, and thus, when the opponents caught up, they didn’t have to face the attacks of five Spirit Sages at once.
