Talking Someone Down Doesn't Work
"Wolf King, can't we sit down and talk some more?"
Seeing that the Moon Worship Wolf King remained silent and once again transformed into a silver lightning bolt to pounce on him, Xu Mingxi knew that his verbal persuasion had been rendered useless before it even began.
If it wants to fight, then let it fight. The fire of the sun rises on Xu Mingxi's body, and the Sun Crow Clone reappears. Five against one, the advantage is in my hands.
The Sun Crow cried out to the sky, its body surrounded by the flames of the sun, and charged fearlessly toward the Moon Worship Wolf King. As long as Xu Mingxi's Soul Power was exhausted, it was the most important force to restrain him.
That wasn't enough. The Moon Worship Wolf King roared, and the Silver Moon in the sky shone even brighter. Its silver fur emitted a faint glow, and its speed increased dramatically, so fast that it even left an afterimage in its place.
"Don't even think about it."
Seeing that the Moon Worship Wolf King was about to take care of the two Soul Douluo Elder first, Xu Mingxi's Golden Crow Wings grew behind him, and the Blazing Sun Overbody. He transformed into a Rainbow Light and rushed to the Moon Worship Wolf King.
In terms of speed, Xu Mingxi is only slightly inferior to the Moon Worship Wolf King. Although he is not as strong, he still has the Sun Crow Clone.
Taking advantage of Xu Mingxi's brief moment of resistance against the Moon Worship Wolf King, the Sun Crow in the sky pounced down, its claws gleaming with sharpness, and the temperature rising rapidly.
The Moon Worship Wolf King sensed a strong threat from above and quickly withdrew, using its speed to avoid a direct confrontation with the Sun Crow.
The Three Elders weren't just standing around watching. The Eighth Elder and Ninth Elder simultaneously activated their Star's Protection, linking their Soul Power and unleashing their third Soul Skill, Star Radiance Art. Starlight showered upon the three of them, greatly enhancing their various attributes.
Then the two Elder's fifth Soul Ring lit up, and their Star Radiance Bewitchment Bewitching Soul Skill proved too slow for the extremely fast Moon Worship Wolf King.
The Star Guiding Art was fast, but as the First Soul Skill, it turned into Starlight and dissipated as soon as it hit the Moon Worship Wolf King's silver fur, having no effect whatsoever.
Moon Worship Wolf King watched the Starlight emerge from the ground, a mocking glint appeared in his wolf eyes. His body shone with a brilliant silver light, instantly breaking the Star Radiance Bewitchment, leaving him completely empty.
The 190,000-year-old Moon Worship Wolf King is roughly equivalent to a level 94 Titled Douluo. For the two Soul Douluo Elder, the difference in strength is too great. Their Star Radiance Bewitchment can only slightly interfere. Its most important role is to use the Star Radiance Art to provide an amplification for the First Elder.
The Wolf King noticed the First Elder gathering energy in the distance and sensed a strong threat from the massive meteorite that had formed above him.
Its silver light gathered in the air, about to spray towards the First Elder and interrupt his charging up, but Xu Mingxi would not give him this chance. He activated his Martial Soul Avatar, unleashed the Fire Thief Lizard Soul Bone Skill Great Sunny Day, and fired the Blazing Sun Cannon straight at the Moon Worship Wolf King.
Left with no other option, the Wolf King unleashed its silver light at Xu Mingxi. The two beams collided in mid-air, creating a massive cloud of dust.
The First Elder had finished charging up his power. With his remaining right hand, he manipulated the meteor in the sky and swung it down from above. His Ninth Soul Skill, Great Wilderness Starfall, plummeted towards the Moon Worship Wolf King.
Xu Mingxi withdrew and retreated to the edge, but the Moon Worship Wolf King was entangled by the Sun Crow Clone. Despite being injured, he managed to break free, but still could not escape the bombardment range of the meteorite.
A tremendous roar resounded throughout the core area of Lanto Great Forest, and the surrounding Soul Beast fled in all directions. With their ten thousand years of cultivation, they possessed a degree of intelligence and knew that the person or Soul Beast capable of launching such an attack was not someone they could afford to provoke.
Xu Mingxi flew into the air, Starlight in his hand turned into threads that spread from his palm, forming a Golden Birdcage that completely enveloped the smoke and dust.
Although this would only take one swipe from the Moon Worship Wolf King, it could slow it down slightly and prevent it from escaping instantly.
As the smoke cleared, a trickle of silver blood flowed from the Moon Worship Wolf King's mouth. Despite the First Elder's all-out attack, he was ultimately unable to completely dodge and suffered a serious injury.
It looked at the four humans eyeing it menacingly around it, and the Sun Crow Clone lurking in the air, and its heart sank. Perhaps it was really in danger this time.
The Moon Worship Wolf King still has a last resort, but if it uses it and cannot quickly deal with the humans in front of it, it will fall into a period of weakness and will surely die. It does not want to die.
"Human, let's talk."
Xu Mingxi was charging up the Blazing Sun Cannon in his hand. He had wanted to talk to you earlier but you wouldn't. Now that he was at a disadvantage, he wanted to talk. Dream on.
But soon he felt the aura of the Moon Worship Wolf King surge, the moonlight shone down from the sky, the Crescent Mark on the wolf king's forehead lit up, and his fur shimmered with a dazzling silver light.
"Alright, Wolf King, let's talk."
"Hmph, human, you'd better be sincere, otherwise even if I am no match for you, I can still take one or two of you with me."
Xu Mingxi landed from the sky and sighed softly. Sure enough, all negotiations must be based on strength. If the Wolf King wanted to fight to the death, the Eighth Elder and the Ninth Elder would be in danger.
Rather than risking casualties to capture the Moon Worship Wolf King, we should first see what it has to say; perhaps we'll have a chance to unleash our ultimate persuasive skills.
"Wolf King, just tell us what you want, but it's absolutely impossible for us to let you go."
Xu Mingxi and the other three were secretly accumulating strength, ready to act at any time should the Moon Worship Wolf King change his mind and run away or have any conspiracy.
"Humans, there's no need to be so wary. I never break my word, and I've lived this long enough; I don't want to die."
"So, Wolf King, what do you mean?"
"I offer myself to you, but you must promise to resurrect the remnant soul that resides in my Soul Ring after you become Deity."
"Very well, if I break this promise, I will shatter my Martial Soul and die."
Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast can retain a trace of its soul within its Soul Ring during the sacrifice process. Although it is not as powerful as Wisdom Soul Ring, it still has the possibility of resurrection.
If Xu Mingxi can do it after becoming a god, she wouldn't mind resurrecting the Moon Worship Wolf King. After all, she already has the Sun Flame Crow, so one more won't make a difference.
"Okay, I hope you will remember your promise."
Under the watchful eyes of the Three Elders, the Moon Worship Wolf King emitted a silver light from its entire body, let out a long howl to the sky, and the silver light transformed into a vivid blood red color.
A red aura spread outwards from the Moon Worship Wolf King, and a red Soul Ring emerged from its body.
Xu Mingxi sat cross-legged, focusing all his efforts on attracting this nearly 200,000-year-old Soul Ring. Even though the Moon Worship Wolf King had sacrificed himself and there was no longer any soul impact, he still needed to withstand the enormous energy contained within it.
A silver ball of light emerged from the wolf's body and disappeared into the Soul Ring; it was the soul of the Moon Worship Wolf King.
As soon as the soul left, the wolf's body collapsed instantly. Under the astonished gazes of the Elder, a piece of Soul Bone radiating Silver Light appeared at the wolf's head, floating and disappearing into Xu Mingxi's head.
