The Soul Ring and the Inner Core
Lu Xuan understood; the other party had seen through the loophole at a glance and didn't dwell on it.
With a thought, the [Black Jade Divine Flute] appeared from his Martial Soul Space. Its clear sound trembled slightly as he solemnly swore, "I swear on my Martial Soul [Black Jade Divine Flute] that if I ever harm Xiao Wu, may this flute shatter completely."
Seeing Lu Xuan make his vow, the others also stood up one after another and swore an oath with their own Martial Soul.
They all knew in their hearts that Lu Xuan had no intention of seizing the Soft Bone Rabbit's Soul Ring. This oath, though seemingly solemn, would not actually bind them at all.
After everyone had finished taking their oaths, the Titan Giant Ape had no more regrets and calmly accepted its fate.
Its massive body crashed to the ground, its eyes closed, and it ceased all struggle.
While everyone was taking their oaths, Dugu Xin swallowed Pills to quickly replenish his depleted Soul Power, then turned and walked to the side, preparing to absorb the Sky Azure Bull Python's Soul Ring.
Dugu Xin already possessed five Soul Bone, and the Sky Azure Bull Python conveniently provided him with the final Soul Bone — his Skull Bone!
Once the absorption is complete, all six Soul Bone in his body will be in place, and his strength will undoubtedly experience a surge.
Just as Dugu Xin was focused on refining the Sky Azure Bull Python Soul Ring, the pitch-black [Life and Death Arena] black hole suddenly churned and surged, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which had been lurking within, finally broke out of the domain.
Having endured extreme depletion within its domain and been forced to devour the essence of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit, it is now in a weakened state, its Soul Power exhausted, and it no longer possesses its peak power.
Before it could regain its footing and react, Lu Xuan had already been preparing for a long time. In an instant, he unleashed three killing moves at once, and the attack poured down with a thunderous roar!
Eighth Soul Skill: Time Freeze!
Ninth Soul Skill: Ling Yuan Strike!
"Soul Bone Skill: Annihilation Light!"
Three incredibly powerful moves were layered upon each other, precisely targeting the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger that had just escaped the black hole and was wide open, and blasting it down without any hesitation!
Although the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger had devoured the essence of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit Ah Rou in the [Life and Death Arena], the enormous consumption brought about by the domain skill had not been compensated at all, and its overall condition was even weaker than before.
Having just broken free from the black hole's restraints, three powerful attacks descended upon it. The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a miserable howl and nearly perished on the spot.
Seeing that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was still alive, Lu Xuan and his companions unleashed a barrage of various Soul Skill upon it as if they were throwing money away.
The [Life and Death Arena] already severely depleted his Soul Power, and at this moment, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was no longer able to activate this trump card.
It gritted its teeth and withstood the relentless attacks of the three, desperately trying to escape, but its body grew weaker and its strength rapidly diminished.
Finally, Lu Xuan delivered the finishing blow.
The massive body of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger crashed to the ground, and a strange round bead slowly rose from its corpse.
The bead was entirely black, with a shimmering blue-green light flowing within it. As soon as it appeared, it flew straight toward the black hole that had not yet completely dissipated.
"Stop it!"
Lu Xuan had already given instructions to everyone, and seeing this, he couldn't help but shout urgently in a deep voice. Before he finished speaking, he had already rushed out with lightning speed, and was about to intercept the precious pearl.
But another figure was faster than Lu Xuan and had already set off first.
The moment that round bead appeared, Dugu Bo had been waiting in ambush.
Seeing the precious pearl flying through the air, he suddenly clenched his five fingers and grabbed the strange round pearl in his palm.
The bead contained a violent pulling force. Even as Level 98 Titled Douluo, he was pulled by this enormous force and nearly dragged into the remaining black hole.
Fortunately, it was Dugu Bo who made the move; if it had been anyone else, they would probably have been dragged into the domain by the orb in an instant.
"Haha, got it!" Dugu Bo, completely disregarding his composure, straightened up, holding the round bead, and handed it to Lu Xuan: "Xiao Xuan, keep this safe."
"Hmm." Lu Xuan reached out and took the round bead.
He paused briefly to regulate his breathing, stabilize his Soul Power and condition, and then sat down in front of the enormous corpse of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
Before absorbing the Soul Ring, Lu Xuan bit his fingertip and placed a drop of blood on the Inner Core.
The Inner Core, stained with blood, suddenly transformed into a stream of light and pierced straight into his body.
At almost the same moment, Lu Xuan summoned his Body Martial Soul and began absorbing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Soul Ring, using it as the First Soul Ring of his Second Martial Soul.
The instant the Inner Core merged into the body, an extremely violent force exploded out, surging wildly through the limbs and bones.
The Inner Core contained the 100,000-year-old essence of Ah Rou, plus the ferocious Soul Power of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger itself. The two forces clashed and tore at each other, like countless red-hot knives cutting back and forth in his meridians.
Lu Xuan's muscles twitched violently and uncontrollably, veins bulged on his forehead, and large beads of cold sweat instantly soaked through his clothes, dripping down his chin.
Immediately afterwards, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Soul Ring slowly rose up, a black and red halo enveloping him, and ferocious beast soul power surged wildly into his skin through the pores.
The power of the Soul Ring collided with the violent origin of the Inner Core within his body, and the two powerful forces fought and battled within his body.
Large patches of eerie bluish-black lines kept appearing beneath Lu Xuan's skin, his flesh sometimes bulging and sometimes collapsing, as if a Ferocious Beast was about to burst out of his body.
He clenched his teeth, blood trickling from the corners of his mouth, his internal organs enduring excruciating pain.
Every meridian was on the verge of collapse, and his bones were being torn apart by waves of excruciating pain, as if his entire body would be ripped to pieces by these two violent forces at any moment.
From a distance, onlookers could only see the boy, enveloped in a black and red halo, trembling violently, with blood constantly seeping from his mouth and nose, looking utterly miserable.
Lu Xuan kept his eyes tightly closed and gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain that was enough to tear an ordinary Soul Master apart, and persisted in refining this power.
In the distance, Dugu Bo, Ye Renxin, and Zhao Yan stared intently at Lu Xuan, who was enveloped in a black and red light curtain. Their expressions were solemn, and they were all on tenterhooks.
Ye Renxin clasped his hands in front of him, his gaze never leaving the violently trembling figure, his brows furrowed.
As the Soul Master of the Nine Heart Begonia, he was best able to sense the fluctuations in life force. He watched as the two violent forces within Lu Xuan's body constantly clashed, their strength fluctuating, yet remaining under his control.
Dugu Bo stood with his arms crossed, the smile on his face long gone from when he had just captured his prey. His aged gaze fell heavily on Lu Xuan. He said in a deep voice, "This kid is too audacious. Refining the Inner Core and the Soul Ring at the same time is practically a brush with death. If he loses control even slightly, I will immediately step in to cut off his power."
Zhao Yan stood not far away, keeping a close eye on the Titan Giant Ape, worried that it might suddenly attack.
Sensing Lu Xuan's condition, he said in a deep voice, "He can only rely on his own willpower to hold on now. He went through so much trouble to get this Soul Ring, he can't bear to give it up!"
The three of them simply stood guard on the perimeter, keeping a close eye on Lu Xuan's condition, ready to rescue him at any moment.
The Titan Giant Ape lying not far away had already sat up, praying in his heart that Lu Xuan would be burst apart by the Soul Ring and Inner Core.
Only in this way can the Soul Beast Clan survive.
This person is terrifying!
