Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Sacrifice
When Yu Xiaogang unleashed a combat power that Quasi Soul Elder shouldn't have, if Yu Xiaogang's cultivation level hadn't been too low and he hadn't been unable to fully utilize the power of his self-created secret technique, Qian Xunji and the other two would have long since turned into ashes.
Then Bibi Dong used all her strength to stop the lightly injured Qian Xunji, even spitting blood herself, to make Yu Xiaogang escape. This moved Ah Rou, who was lying on the ground, and she knew that once Qian Xunji dealt with Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong, it would be her turn.
Since death is inevitable in the end, Ah Rou decides to make a desperate gamble before she dies! She will sacrifice herself for Yu Xiaogang, the loyal and righteous man in front of her. Even though her lover is willing to risk her life to let him escape, Yu Xiaogang can still stand up and fight back without hesitation.
Perhaps Ah Rou could place her bets on Yu Xiaogang, and then ask him to take care of Xiao Wu Yu Xiaogang. After all, that Yun Lan clone was Soul Beast, although she'd never seen a humanoid Soul Beast before.
However, as Soul Beast that is about to reach 200,000 years of cultivation, it still has some insight. Yun Lan is definitely a Soul Beast with 100,000 years of cultivation, and it seems to listen to Yu Xiaogang's every word. It is someone who is worth entrusting Xiao Wu to take care of.
If Ah Rou hadn't exhausted her bloodline potential and been unable to survive the tribulation of Soul Beast becoming Ferocious Beast, she wouldn't have had even a single chance. Ah Rou wouldn't have transformed back into a human just to spend a few hundred more years with her daughter, Xiao Wu.
As Ah Rou initiated the Soul Beast sacrifice ritual, Qian Xunji's ninth Soul Skill attack was like a gentle breeze. This caused Qian Xunji to unleash his frenzied attack without regard for Soul Power consumption, relentlessly attacking the protective forces of heaven and earth generated by Ah Rou's Soul Beast sacrifice.
At this moment, Yue Guan, carrying the blood-soaked Gui Mei, flew to Qian Xunji's side, who was already exhausted and lacking in Soul Power. A little fearful, Xiao Shi suggested:
"Pope Holiness! The sacrifice of Soul Beast cannot be interrupted, and the former Saintess is currently under the protection of the rules of heaven and earth during the Soul Beast sacrifice."
Moreover, we're all in bad shape right now, especially Old Ghost who shielded the Pope from the attack and is now severely injured and unconscious, and could die at any moment!
Yue Guan glanced at Qian Xunji's unpredictable expression, then looked down with tenderness and heartache at the barely breathing Gui Mei in her arms. With a resolute gaze Yue Guan mustered her courage and questioned Qian Xunji:
"Your Pope! Although Lao Gu and I are willing to die for the Spirit Hall, it's meaningless now! Moreover, Yu Xiaogang will definitely recover his full strength after obtaining a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, and may even advance further."
Furthermore, Pope Holiness, if, by any chance, Yu Xiaogang could still use that Thousand-Hand Giant attack, we might all be finished here. It would be a huge loss! Pope Holiness, please reconsider!
After finishing his Yue Guan tightened his grip on Gui Mei's hand, lowered his head, and remained silent, waiting for Qian Xunji's next reaction. In truth, Yue Guan had been quite resentful of Qian Xunji Gui Mei a Pope during Yu Xiaogang's powerful attack. If he weren't outmatched by Wuxianji, Yue Guan would have wanted to avenge Gui Mei right now!
Why didn't they just stay in the Spirit Hall Elder Hall of Offerings? They made a mistake by following a scoundrel as his lackey for a little personal gain!
Qian Xunji's expression shifted unpredictably, alternating between red, white, and black. Then, recalling Yu Xiaogang's barrage of palm strikes and countless giant Rasengan energy balls, he broke out in a cold sweat.
If he were to suffer another blow, he would indeed die from this attack. In that case, Qian Xunji would become the first level 95 Super Douluo in the Douluo Continent history to die at the hands of a low-level Soul Master. While Yu Xiaogang is currently unable to escape due to the Soul Beast sacrifice, it's best to quickly return to Spirit City, as that's the safest place!
Qian Xunji glanced at Yu Xiaogang with a sinister look in his eyes, and then felt a surge of hatred towards Bibi Dong, who was lying under the protection of the rules of heaven and earth. He immediately felt his injuries worsen and his blood surge.
"Puff!"
Qian Xunji spat a mouthful of blood Yue Guan's face, but he didn't dare to dodge and could only force himself to ask with concern:
"Are you alright, Your Pope?"
Yu Xiaogang's attack was not so easy to withstand; the main target was Qian Xunji. If it weren't for the Gui Mei taking the brunt of the maximum Rasengan attack, Qian Xunji might have been in even worse shape.
Qian Xunji had been barely suppressing his injuries when anger and frustration exacerbated them. The energies of Yu Xiaogang and Yun Lan continued to wreak havoc within Qian Xunji's meridians, Yu Xiaogang's Soul Power, which was like a persistent, gnarled thorn in his side Qian Xunji could only suppress and resist it, unable to expel it from his body.
Qian Xunji coughed up a mouthful of blood and weakly gritted her teeth as she commanded Yue Guan:
"Retreat! Return to Spirit City to rest! Also, keep all news from this place secret today; don't let anyone discover that anything here is related to us."
Qian Xunji, seeing Yu Xiaogang accepting the Soul Beast sacrifice, felt a surge of anger and spat out another mouthful of blood. He glared at Yu Xiaogang's figure with venomous hatred and gave Yue Guan Pass an order:
"Get Yu Xiaogang out of this mess! Want to become famous overnight? Dream on! Continue to be seen as a useless Grandmaster in the eyes of the world! We're leaving!"
Qian Xunji, carrying Yue Guan, fled in a sorry state. If they didn't leave soon, they really wouldn't be able to escape. Were they about to receive another five-meter-long slap from Yu Xiaogang's Thousand-Armed Guanyin? This feud was now firmly established; their next meeting would be a fight to the death!
Yu Xiaogang floated up from within the red Soul Beast's essence. Xiao Wu's mother Ah Rou, said to Yu Xiaogang with gratitude and guilt, "Yu Xiaogang, I'm sorry! I dragged you into this. Consider this my compensation to you. However, I have a request. I have a daughter whom I have protected too well."
"Soul Master Yu Xiaogang, I know you're a good person. You even have a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast serving you. It seems you're very friendly towards Soul Beast. I hope you can take care of my daughter when you meet her in the future. She's in the core area of Star Dou Great Forest; she'll sense my Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone on you."
As Ah Rou watched Qian Xunji lead his remaining troops away, she no longer regretted that this was her fate. However, things were better than Ah Rou had initially imagined. She continued, looking at Yu Xiaogang with pleading eyes, "Soul Master Yu Xiaogang, I wish to leave a fragment of my consciousness Soul Body in the Spirit Bone so that I can see my daughter again and say a proper goodbye. Is that alright?"
Yu Xiaogang also noticed that Qian Xunji had escaped. He immediately realized that Qian Xunji was afraid that he would recover and launch another attack with the Thousand-Armed Guanyin and Rasengan. After all, Qian Xunji had clearly vomited blood twice, indicating that Yu Xiaogang's attack had Qian Xunji injured him.
Yu Xiaogang's sacrifice to Ah Rou wasn't originally in his plan. He had intended to return to his lair and use Deep Blue to design his own Light Holy Dragon bloodline Self-Condensed Soul Ring, to thoroughly shock Bibi Dong and the others' values. However, since Ah Rou had asked, Yu Xiaogang agreed! "Your Ah Rou, right? Don't worry! I do have a special Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast under my command. I will wait and have Yun Lan protect your soul so you can meet your daughter Xiao Wu. No matter how well I take care of her, it can't compare to a biological mother!"
With tears in her eyes, Ah Rou thanked Yu Xiaogang. She was overjoyed that her sacrifice had left behind a gruesome soul, which had cooled down considerably. Little did she know that Yu Xiaogang's Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast possessed such a miraculous ability to protect her intact soul. This was no simple feat; protecting the soul of a sacrificed Soul Beast under the rules of heaven and earth was no easy task! Ah Rou radiated pink Soul Beast essence, transforming into a magnificent outfit that circled around Yu Xiaogang. In the air, she took one last look at the core area of Star Dou Great Forest.
Ah Rou withdrew her gaze, no longer lingering, and her body, now semi-transparent, surged into Yu Xiaogang's body. Carrying all her essence with her, she began repairing Yu Xiaogang's riddled body.
A red, illusory Spirit Ring flickered around Yu Xiaogang's body, slowly coalescing. Energy was gathering heavily on his left leg bone, and Ah Rou's sacrificed Spirit Bone was also beginning to condense.
