Moon Douluo, Level 92! Sea Dragon Was Scared Half to Death: You're Using Me as a Target? (Please Read!)

After a while.

The violent red Soul Power fluctuations around Kong Yan finally began to subside, gradually drawing back into her body.

"Vmmm—"

A clear, resonant hum rang out between heaven and earth.

Kong Yan slowly opened her eyes. For an instant, her pupils seemed to transform into two miniature full moons, dazzling and brilliant.

Beneath Kong Yan's feet,

yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, and red—nine Soul Rings gleamed in unison.

The ninth Soul Ring, scarlet as blood, radiated a terrifying aura that made it hard to breathe.

A Titled Douluo!

And not merely someone who had just reached Level 90.

With the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and its unimaginably vast Soul Power washing through her,

Kong Yan's Soul Power surged forward without pause, carrying her past the threshold of Level 91 and settling firmly at the peak of Level 91!

"Congratulations, Madam! Our congratulations!"

Aboard the escort ships around them, countless elite Soul Masters from the Great Sun Prince Mansion shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens.

Xu Yu beamed and was just about to step forward to congratulate her when he saw that Kong Yan hadn't stood up. Instead, her gaze had fallen upon the enormous corpse beneath her.

A glimmer of red light was slowly gathering inside the mangled body of the Evil Orca King.

At last, a crystalline, crimson leg bone emerged, surrounded by a rippling halo of light.

It was the 100,000-Year Evil Orca Left Leg Bone!

"Since it's part of the set, I might as well take it too."

Kong Yan smiled faintly and beckoned with her delicate hand. The Spirit Bone was drawn to her and instantly fitted itself to her slender left leg.

Another enormous torrent of energy poured into her body.

Her Soul Power, which had already stalled at the peak of Level 91, surged forward again under the force of this new energy.

"Boom!"

It was as if some kind of shackle had been broken.

The aura around Kong Yan surged once more, and an even more immense pressure swept across the scene.

Level 92!

With just one hunt, Kong Yan had gone from a Level 90 quasi-Titled Douluo to a Level 92 Titled Douluo!

If word of such rapid progress got out, it would surely drive the entire Soul Master World of Douluo Continent into a frenzy.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Xu Yu couldn't help repeating the word three times, his eyes filled with pride and affection.

"We haven't even reached our destination, and we've already slain a hundred-thousand-year Ferocious Beast. My wife has even advanced several levels. This is a wonderful omen!"

The entire fleet was caught up in a wave of celebration.

A Level 92 Titled Douluo, with a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Spirit Bone, supported by Soul Tools.

Kong Yan's current battle prowess was probably enough to rival that of an ordinary Level 95 Super Douluo on Douluo Continent!

The Great Sun Prince Mansion's strength had soared once again!

Kong Yan had chosen her own title according to her Martial Soul:

"Moon!"

Simple and direct.

Xu Yu pondered.

Since I'm going to Douluo Continent, I probably won't return to the empire for the rest of my life.

Rather than Moon, I might as well change this title to Sun.

It's simpler and more imposing, and it goes well with Yan'er's Moon.

Kong Yan slowly stood and looked at Xu Yu and Xu Zhao, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"Brother Yu, Zhao'er.

This Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Spirit Bone gave me four Soul Skills in total.

I can tell these four skills are incredibly powerful, and they even carry the unique destructive attribute of the Evil Orcas.

It's just..."

Kong Yan glanced around at the empty sea and shook her head with some regret.

"That group of Demon Soul Great White Sharks ran off too quickly. There isn't a single decent opponent left on the sea.

I've got all this power, but no one to test it on."

Blasting the sea with Soul Guidance Cannons was a way to vent, but if she wanted to test the accuracy and power of her Soul Skills, she needed a sturdy enough "target."

Just as Kong Yan was lamenting the lack of one,

a pained groan came from a corner of the deck.

"Ugh..."

Everyone turned toward the sound.

The Sea Dragon Douluo, whom Lan Ya had treated earlier and whose Soul Power Xu Zhao had sealed, was just waking up.

He opened his eyes blearily, his mind still hazy.

The first things he saw were the glaring sunlight and...

a pair of eyes after pair of eyes, all filled with amusement and "delight."

Sea Dragon Douluo struggled to sit up, only to find himself weak all over.

A golden shackle had locked down the Soul Power in his body. He couldn't move a single bit of it.

"Where... am I...?"

Sea Dragon Douluo murmured unconsciously as he glanced around.

When he spotted the enormous corpse of the Evil Orca King floating on the sea not far away, his pupils contracted. He came half to his senses in an instant.

That was... the Evil Orca King?!

Dead?!

Then he felt the lingering fluctuations of hundred-thousand-year Soul Power around Kong Yan, still heavy with the scent of blood.

As the foremost of the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island, he knew exactly what that meant.

Someone had killed the Evil Orca King and absorbed its Soul Ring!

"You're awake?"

A warm voice, edged with a hint of chill, came from above him.

Sea Dragon Douluo struggled to raise his head and met Xu Zhao's faintly amused gaze.

Xu Zhao looked down at the once-arrogant Titled Douluo, the corners of his lips curling in amusement. Then he turned to Kong Yan and said:

"Mother, weren't you just saying you didn't have a target to test your moves on?

Look, here's one, ready-made."

At those words, Sea Dragon Douluo's heart skipped a beat. A chill shot from the soles of his feet straight to his scalp.

Test her moves?!

Use him, an injured man whose Soul Power had been sealed and who had only just recovered, to test her moves?!

And with Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skills, no less?!

"You... you people..."

Sea Dragon Douluo's face turned deathly pale. His lips trembled as he tried to condemn their shamelessness.

But he realized he barely had the strength to speak.

At Xu Zhao's suggestion, Kong Yan's eyes lit up. She looked Sea Dragon Douluo up and down, then nodded in satisfaction.

"Zhao'er is right.

Sea Dragon Douluo is tough as nails, and his body is that of a Titled Douluo. Even with his Soul Power sealed, he should still be able to take a beating.

He really is the perfect choice for testing the power of my skills."

As she spoke, Kong Yan slowly raised her right hand.

The scarlet ninth Soul Ring beneath her feet lit up abruptly!

Terrifying energy instantly locked onto Sea Dragon Douluo on the ground.

"No... please..."

Sea Dragon Douluo stared at the glowing Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, his eyes full of despair and terror.

He was the heir to the Grand Pontiff of Sea God Island and the foremost of the Seven Sacred Pillars. Had he really fallen so low as to become a human target?!

It was worse than being killed!

But Xu Zhao ignored his protests completely. He simply smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

"Mother, go ahead and let loose.

Aunt Lan is right here. As long as you don't turn him to ash in one hit, she can heal him.

We can... take our time testing them."

Sea Dragon Douluo squeezed his eyes shut, his body trembling slightly with overwhelming fear and humiliation.

The wait for death—or, rather, to be toyed with and trampled at their whim—stretched every second to infinity, as if an entire century had passed.

Yet the earth-shattering blast he expected never struck him, and neither did the soul-rending pain.

All he heard was the howling sea wind and... the roar of waves being torn apart by the giant ship.

One second, two seconds, three...

Sea Dragon Douluo tentatively opened one eye.

Xu Zhao, Kong Yan, and the others, who had been gathered around him, had already gone off to their separate tasks.

Kong Yan stood at the bow, speaking quietly with Xu Yu.

It seemed that "using him to test her moves" had been nothing more than a casual joke.

Or perhaps they had only meant to scare him, shattering the last remnants of his dignity as a Sacred Pillar Guardian of Sea God Island.

"Phew..."

Sea Dragon Douluo let out a long breath. His clothes were already soaked through with cold sweat.

He had narrowly escaped death.

Only then did he realize that the Steel Giant Ship he was on was racing across the sea at a speed that left him dumbfounded.

The scenery on both sides flew past. The enormous bow cleaved through the waves, like a steel beast rampaging through the deep.

Inside the bridge,

Zi Zhenzhu was following Xu Zhao's instructions, guiding the Invincible Fleet as it adjusted course.

They were heading at full speed toward the southern coast of Douluo Continent—that is, the coast of the Star Luo Empire.
