Douluo: Fiery Chains of the Soul, Sealing Off the Gods — Part 15

Fortunately, the power of the icy spring suppressed it in time. Otherwise, he would surely have died here.

After an entire day, Su Han finally completed the full absorption of the Infernal Delicate Apricot's Fire Attribute.

Afterward, Su Han calmly rose from the hot spring of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye and leaped onto the shore.

As he slowly breathed in and out, a current of air circulated through his chest. Then, a tiny yet scorching flame danced lightly at his fingertips. His Fire Attribute cultivation was no longer what it had once been; it had increased severalfold.

Su Han thought to himself that if he consumed another rare treasure like the Cock's Comb Phoenix Sunflower, his Fire Attribute cultivation would surely reach its peak, attaining an unprecedented extreme.

However, time waited for no one, and departure was imminent. Su Han's eyes revealed a deep attachment to this scenery, but reason told him that it was time to set out.

He knew that in a few days, that eccentric old poisoner, Dugu Bo, would return. By then, leaving would be impossible.

Su Han retraced his steps, moving with great caution.

Suddenly, a surging wave of energy came from ahead, making his heart tremble.

He advanced slowly, every step as cautious as if walking on thin ice. When he drew closer, the sight before him left him dumbfounded: a thrilling battle was in full swing.

A Fire Winged Bird and a White Armored Giant Python were locked in fierce combat. Both were powerful soul beasts with eight thousand years of cultivation, and their auras were terrifying.

The Fire Winged Bird was covered in fiery red feathers and possessed a sharp eagle's beak. It was clearly one of the finest Fire Attribute soul beasts.

Among Fire Attribute soul beasts, winged birds were known for their cunning. They possessed both the fierce offensive power and extraordinary speed of eagle-type soul beasts, leaving countless soul masters far behind.

For Su Han, this was undoubtedly a rare opportunity for training.

He hid in the shadows, held his breath, and watched intently, waiting for the best moment to strike.

The battle grew increasingly brutal. The Fire Winged Bird was agile, its movements unpredictable and its attacks incomparably fierce. The White Armored Giant Python, meanwhile, launched a tenacious counterattack with its massive body and lethal venom.

However, as time passed, the White Armored Giant Python's disadvantage gradually became apparent. Its enormous body had become a burden, while its venom was neutralized one by one by the Fire Winged Bird's blazing flames.

Finally, the Fire Winged Bird tore apart the White Armored Giant Python's body with its sharp claws, then burned it with flames until it was completely consumed.

Yet the Fire Winged Bird had not emerged unscathed. One of its wings seemed to have been broken under the python's fierce assault, and exhaustion was evident in its labored breathing.

This was the perfect moment for Su Han to act. His figure flashed as he rapidly closed in like Gui Mei.

Just as the Fire Winged Bird was about to enjoy the fruits of victory, Su Han's aura suddenly approached.

Sensing the threat, the Fire Winged Bird let out an angry cry, beat its wings, and lunged fiercely at Su Han.

Su Han had long been prepared. His martial soul awakened instantly—Fiery Chains of the Soul!

Without hesitation, he activated his second soul skill, Golden Net Restraint.

Chains intertwined in the air to form a net, instantly restricting the Fire Winged Bird's movements.

One of the chains followed it like a shadow, relentlessly pursuing it.

Within this sealed area, flames raged and the temperature soared.

Though the Fire Winged Bird struggled fiercely, it ultimately could not escape its restraints. Clear wounds and burn marks appeared across its body.

As a soul beast as blazing as fire itself, the Fire Winged Bird was naturally unafraid of being scorched by flames.

However, an abrupt change shattered the calm—the Fire Winged Bird suddenly erupted, and with an earth-shaking cry, it forcefully broke free from its restraints.

Even Su Han was startled by this sight, but he reacted quickly and instantly unleashed his third soul skill—Blazing Lava Array.

In an instant, eight chains burst from the ground, weaving together into a scorching domain. Lava flowed slowly within it, as though the gates of hell had quietly opened.

The Fire Winged Bird was heavily restrained within this domain of flames, and its speed plummeted as if it had fallen into a swamp.

Moreover, the fierce battle from before had already greatly depleted its strength.

Su Han knew that this third soul skill was his true trump card.

Under the torment of the Blazing Lava Array, the Fire Winged Bird cried out miserably again and again, madly crashing against the barrier in an attempt to escape the endless sea of fire.

A satisfied smile curled across Su Han's lips. This was his first time using his third soul skill, yet he had never expected it to possess such astonishing power.

However, just as he held a specially made dagger and leaped into the array, preparing to deliver the Fire Winged Bird a fatal blow, it actually burned its own life cultivation. Its strength instantly surged, reaching the ten-thousand-year level.

Su Han's heart jolted, and he quickly retreated, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.

Clearly, this was the Fire Winged Bird's final death throes.

Su Han's gaze was sharp as he stared closely at it. Time passed second by second, and five minutes flew by in an instant.

Although this Fire Attribute soul beast resisted stubbornly, before Su Han's third soul skill, which increased the power of his Fire Attribute by 150%, its flames were ultimately like an ant trying to shake a tree—utterly insignificant.

The power of Su Han's third soul ring quietly faded, and the Fire Winged Bird collapsed dejectedly to the ground. It seemed to have reached the end of its life, yet its gaze remained fierce, fixed firmly on Su Han as though it wanted to carve its hatred into his heart in its final moment.

Suddenly, it erupted with its last defiance and pounced at Su Han with astonishing speed.

Su Han's expression turned solemn, and he did not dare slack off in the slightest. His first soul ring flashed instantly as azure flames coiled outward, tightly binding the Fire Winged Bird as though it were wrapped inside an azure flaming cocoon.

He slowly increased the force, and the azure flames grew ever fiercer until the Fire Winged Bird's flame of life was completely extinguished.

Those rage-filled eyes did not close even after death. They remained stubbornly fixed in Su Han's direction.

A cold smile appeared on Su Han's lips, his tone full of contempt. "A mere beast dares to confront me?

Today, I'll let you see what I'm capable of." With that, he drew his dagger. A flash of cold light streaked past as he accurately stabbed it into the Fire Winged Bird's eyes.

As he rose to his feet, an unusual glimmer flashed from within the Fire Winged Bird's corpse, drawing his attention.

"Soul bone?"

Su Han was startled, and his expression instantly grew grave.

The appearance of a soul bone was often accompanied by a mutation in a soul beast under extreme pain and stimulation.

He carefully cut open the glowing spot, and a strange bone slowly emerged. It was neither a limb bone, skull bone, nor Torso Bone, but an exceptionally rare External Soul Bone!

Su Han's hand trembled slightly as indescribable excitement surged in his heart.

He had only wanted to test his newly acquired soul skill. He had never expected such an unexpected harvest.

An External Soul Bone was far more valuable than an ordinary soul bone. Not only could it greatly enhance a soul master's strength, it could also grant the soul master a unique ability. More importantly, it would continuously evolve as the soul master's strength increased.

And this External Soul Bone was actually a pair of enormous wings!

For Su Han, this pair of wings held extraordinary significance.

They granted him the ability to fly, allowing him to fight with ease in the skies.

The combination of a Fire Attribute Control type soul master and flight gave him more strategies and choices in battle.

This was true flight, unlike the Blue Silver Emperor's soul bone skill, which still had restrictions.

When facing powerful enemies, the ability to fly became an even greater means of survival, allowing him to easily avoid his opponents' attack range.

Su Han sat cross-legged and began absorbing this precious External Soul Bone.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Half an hour later, he slowly opened his eyes, excitement and anticipation flashing within them.

He took a deep breath and tried to control the wings, making them a part of his body.

As his thoughts stirred, the wings gently flapped, and scorching Fire Element energy surged with them.

At first, Su Han seemed somewhat unfamiliar with them, but as time passed, the connection between him and the wings grew increasingly close.

Every flap allowed him to feel a vast power surging through his body.

He tried spreading his wings and leaping up. Though he staggered somewhat at first, through repeated attempts, he gradually mastered the balance and techniques of flight.

Finally, after taking a deep breath, he gathered his courage, kicked off the ground, and beat his enormous wings with all his might, carrying himself straight into the sky.

This was the first time in his life that he had truly soared through the air. That free, unrestrained feeling made him burst into laughter.

He traced elegant arcs through the sky, his wings seeming to merge with him as they shared the speed of the wind and the power of freedom.

He circled, dived, and flipped through the air, enjoying the endless pleasure and excitement brought by flight.

Only when he was utterly exhausted did Su Han slowly descend to the ground.

Although his body was worn out, the excitement and joy in his heart could not subside for a long time.

He knew well that these wings would become one of his greatest aids on the road ahead, allowing him to go farther and higher on the path of a soul master.

Su Han slowly folded the Fire Feather Wings behind his back. They were his unique External Soul Bone, granting his back limitless potential.

When not in use, the soul bone named Fire Feather Wings merged with his body without leaving a trace.

Not only did they grant him the freedom to soar through the skies, they also concealed a terrifying offensive skill—Exploding Fire Star Rain.

In battle, with just a light wave, the Fire Feather Wings could scatter countless scorching, sharp fireballs, like a meteor shower streaking across the sky. Every single one contained enough energy to burn everything to ashes.

These fire sparks were like sharp blades, both scorching and swift. Their attack range was so broad that they were impossible to guard against, and they exploded the instant they hit the ground or came into contact with an enemy.

After ending his adventure in Sunset Forest, Su Han chose a nearby small town as a temporary place to stay.

Inside his room, Su Han looked at the immortal herbs in his Storage Soul Tool and felt troubled.
