Abyss Kings in Battle Armor? The Sky Ox Emperor Who Ate Spirit Bamboo
Under the silent night sky, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and the cool moonlight slowly shone down.
"Whoosh!" A thick, tall black shadow swept through the space, entering the Body Sect like flowing water.
Inside the house, Jiang Xiu, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes and quietly looked at the space in front of him.
In a short while, the figure of Ba Emperor slowly materialized.
"How is it?" Jiang Xiu asked, raising his eyes slightly, his tone carrying a hint of coldness.
"Reporting to the Master, that person was a Limit Douluo- God Level demigod Soul Master, and also a Four-Word Battle Armor Master. After I fought with her for a while, she used her Four-Word Battle Armor, and I didn't notice, so she escaped."
Ba Emperor respectfully reported to the emperor, then bowed slightly and said, "Your subordinate failed to capture this thief; please punish me the Master."
"It's alright. After all, with your current strength, you're still quite a distance from being Limit Douluo who can use Four-Word Battle Armor." Jiang Xiu's eyes flashed, and he waved his hand.
Soul Master at the Limit Douluo God Level, with the blessing of Four-Word Battle Armor, can temporarily elevate their strength to a level comparable to Limit Douluo Quasi-God, a level corresponding to the Abyss Ten Emperors.
While he certainly can't compare to the Abyss Ten Emperors overall, it's normal that Ba Emperor can't defeat him either.
"My the Master, it's not that I haven't fought before, it's just..." Realizing that his the Master seemed to have misunderstood him, Ba Emperor hesitated for a moment before explaining:
"After activating the Four-Word Battle Armor, that person didn't engage his subordinates in combat; instead, he simply fled..."
Even Ba Emperor himself sounded somewhat incredulous when he said this.
"Huh? They got away?" Jiang Xiu's expression froze, and a figure involuntarily surfaced in his mind. He then asked softly, "The person you fought earlier, did they possess the Dark Sacred Dragon Martial Soul?"
"My the Master, how did you know?" Ba Emperor was taken aback. "This thief not only possesses the Dark Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, but also the Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul."
"It really is you... Long Yeyue." Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu's brow twitched slightly; he hadn't expected it to be the person he was thinking of.
When trouble comes, he runs away immediately; Long Paopao is a consistent performer.
No wonder he survived the Shrek Academy explosion; his escape skills are truly exceptional.
"But what is this old thing doing at the Body Sect?" Jiang Xiu wondered.
He knew quite a bit about Long Yeyue. She was the wife of the previous Sea God Pavilion Master, Heavenly Favored Douluo, and possessed the cultivation of Limit Douluo. In her youth, she was also unruly and reckless, and could be considered an enhanced version of Cai Yue'er.
He once went to the Spirit Pagoda and slapped the then-pagoda master.
This slap shattered the already fragile relationship between the Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda.
Thinking of Long Yeyue's various "heroic deeds," Jiang Xiu's slightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed, and a sense of relief appeared in his eyes. He simply couldn't fathom Long Yeyue's thought process.
If Long Yeyue were to become Wallfacer, even the Trisolaran wouldn't be able to figure her out.
However, since he can't solve the problem, Jiang Xiu plans to eliminate Long Yeyue once he has the strength in the future.
If there are no troublemakers, there will be no trouble.
"My the Master, although she escaped, I did leave her with some minor injuries." Seeing his the Master frown, Ba Emperor assumed it was due to his own incompetence and quickly replied.
This job is much simpler than the Ant Emperor's or Six-Claws's; he doesn't want to be fired the same day he takes office.
"Oh? Tell me about it." Jiang Xiu raised an eyebrow, showing a hint of interest.
"Your subordinate devoured half of her Dark Sacred Dragon Martial Soul Origin..." Ba Emperor said tentatively, licking his lips at the same time.
Long Yeyue's Martial Soul Origin truly excellent; it's crunchy and delicious when swallowed, and its energy is dozens of times that of Abyss spiritual medicine.
"Hmm? You swallowed her Martial Soul Origin?" Jiang Xiu's tone faltered for a moment, then a smile appeared in his eyes as he looked at Ba Emperor.
The importance of Martial Soul Origin to Soul Master is naturally paramount. If Long Yeyue had half of her Martial Soul Origin devoured, she would certainly suffer severe damage, and her foundation might even become unstable.
Therefore, Long Yeyue will not be able to heal for at least three years.
At that moment, a glint of light flashed in Jiang Xiu's purple eyes as he noticed Ba Emperor's change. "Has your strength increased further after absorbing the Martial Soul Origin?"
"Your the Master, I have indeed improved my strength considerably, but I am still some distance from the level of Limit Douluo Quasi-God..." Ba Emperor replied truthfully, even with a hint of regret.
"If there is enough Dragon Clan essence or corpses, I can continuously grow stronger by absorbing them."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu's heart stirred slightly, and he instantly thought of a place where many Dragon Clan corpses lay...
There are quite a few even at the God Level.
From his current perspective, Ba Emperor has an extremely high potential, because Ba Emperor possesses a terrifying Regeneration Bloodline Talent and the power of devouring, allowing him to devour without worrying about getting injured.
As for the bloodline conflict in the underlying code, Ba Emperor has already proven by devouring the Black Dragon's corpse that he can completely offset it with his Regeneration talent.
If one possesses enough Dragon Clan remains, one could even serve as a general when facing the Great God Circle in the future.
Immediately, Jiang Xiu said softly, "In the future, I will give you an opportunity. There will be plenty of the Dragon Clan there. Whether you can seize it is up to you."
"Thank you, Your the Master!" Upon hearing this, Ba Emperor was taken aback at first, then bowed with some excitement.
On his very first day under his the Master's command, he devoured the essence of the Dark Sacred Dragon Martial Soul Origin, and now his the Master is going to give him another opportunity.
Indeed, the Master's kindness is never enough!
"By the way, where did Long Yeyue go after you severely injured her?" Jiang Xiu waved his hand and asked in a clear voice.
"Hmm... she didn't return to Shrek City, but instead ran towards the southern horizon," Ba Emperor said thoughtfully.
"The South..." Jiang Xiu's eyes suddenly deepened.
The fact that Long Yeyue did not return to the Shrek Academy for treatment proves that Shrek Academy was unaware of her actions. Besides Shrek Academy, the only other organization Long Yeyue could turn to is the Sea God Legion, which is located in the south.
To be precise, it was Chen Xinjie, the commander of the Sea God Legion.
"I wonder how you plan to help Long Yeyue recover. It's not easy to recover from a damage to one's source," Jiang Xiu murmured.
He was quite certain that Chen Xinjie would not stand by and watch Long Yeyue die, after all, Chen Xinjie still had some "deep feelings" for Long Yeyue, and the title of the Shrek Academy's Sweeper Monk was not given lightly.
Even back then, Chen Xinjie was able to allow Tang Wulin to steal the last Level 12 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell from the Federation Eternal Heaven of Long Yeyue.
It can be said that the Federation had a total of three Level 12 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell, and Chen Xinjie, the commander of the legion, failed to defend even one of them.
Using Federation resources to help Shrek Academy, they essentially treat the Federation like a clown.
"I wonder if Long Yeyue's actions will weaken your strength..." Jiang Xiu murmured. Chen Xinjie wanted to heal Long Yeyue, and even though he was Limit Douluo Quasi-God, it would definitely come at a price.
Although Chen Xinjie flattered someone a bit, his strength is undeniable; he is a genuine top expert on the continent, and he also possesses the divine artifact Sea God Helmet.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiu shook his head slightly. It would be best to weaken Chen Xinjie, but if that wasn't possible, then he would wait until Chen Xinjie's strength increased in the future.
"By the way, my the Master, do you think it's possible for us Abyss King to wear Battle Armor?" Suddenly, Ba Emperor asked tentatively.
After Long Yeyue donned the Battle Armor, his strength skyrocketed. This level of improvement was incredibly tempting for him.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly as he said, "Battle Armor can be considered armor worn by Soul Master. Since you were originally Abyssal Creatures, it was impossible for you to wear Battle Armor."
However, now that you've transformed into shadows, you can try to find the Ant Emperor and have him tailor-make a few suits of Battle Armor for you."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ba Emperor replied respectfully, a hint of excitement appearing in his eyes.
In order to increase their strength, the Ant Emperor will have to suffer.
"Remember, when you get back, don't forget the important matter: lure the Sky Ox Emperor out of the tenth level of the Abyss," Jiang Xiu instructed earnestly, his tone becoming serious.
The Abyss Ten Emperors are the main figures in the Abyss Plane; they must not let trivial matters delay important matters.
"Your subordinate understands!" Ba Emperor nodded emphatically, then, as if he had thought of something, he guessed:
"As far as I know, the Sky Ox Emperor is rather simple and honest. He usually enjoys eating Abyss spiritual herbs and occasionally goes to other Abyss races to get some. Perhaps we can use this angle to lure him out."
"Oh, by the way, the Sky Ox Emperor has a particular fondness for bamboo-based medicinal herbs..."
"Bamboo? Cows eat bamboo?" Jiang Xiu paused, somewhat puzzled.
The identity and hobbies of this mount are increasingly resembling those of a certain black and white species.
"Your the Master, you may not know this, but the environment of the Abyss Plane is quite harsh, and Abyss plants rarely grow there. When the Sky Ox Emperor first invaded Douluo Continent, he seemed to have tasted this plant- Soul Beast, and thus remembered it," Ba Emperor explained.
The Ba Emperor Clan often fought alongside the Guardian Ox, so he had a fairly comprehensive understanding of the Sky Ox Emperor's habits.
"Also, the bamboo-based medicinal herbs must be of sufficient age."
Finally, Ba Emperor added one more sentence.
"Alright, you just need to confirm the feasibility of this plan. As for the bamboo-based medicinal herbs, I can handle that," Jiang Xiu, waving his hand.
He definitely wants to bring the Sky Ox Emperor, with his absolute defense, under his command.
If the Sky Ox Emperor, who is also the mount, were to betray the Abyssal Sage King, he believed the Abyssal Sage King's expression would be quite delightful.
However, Soul Beast are now almost extinct on the continent, and bamboo-type Soul Beast with a certain age are even rarer. The only place Jiang Xiu could think of was the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
There are countless aged herbs and Immortal Herb there.
"As you command, my the Master, I will return and gather some Abyss spiritual herbs to test the Sky Ox Emperor," Ba Emperor said solemnly.
"Hmm." Jiang Xiu nodded slightly, then slowly closed his eyes and continued meditating to receive the feedback.
Tomorrow, he will go to the Spirit Pagoda to fuse with his second Soul Spirit, the Scorpion Tiger whose bloodline is about to revert to its ancestral form.
