Chrysanthemum Douluo: We Might Have Really Met a God Today
Ghost Douluo turned around in confusion and looked at Shen Luo.
Suddenly!
His expression turned vicious.
"He can't handle you, so let me deal with you!"
The next second.
"Bang!"
Another figure went flying. This time, the trench Ghost Douluo plowed with his backside was actually longer and deeper than Chrysanthemum Douluo's!
Shen Luo sneered and looked back at Furina. She was holding back a laugh as she secretly gave him a thumbs-up.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo looked back at his good brother lying on the ground and was utterly dumbfounded.
But the piercing pain in his chest told him that everything that had just happened was real!
A moment later, the two helped each other to their feet. Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately gave the guard beside him a look and whispered:
"Quick, go back and report to His Holiness the Pope. Things aren't looking good here..."
"Yes!"
After the guard ran off, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo silently exchanged a glance. Suddenly, neither dared to step forward again.
The two of them were Titled Douluo, yet when they attacked, the young man had merely stood there without moving and sent them flying with a single glance!
Never mind whether he was really a god; his strength was already beyond what a Titled Douluo could handle!
Even a Super Douluo couldn't pull that off, right?
But it was also clear that he hadn't used Soul Power. The only possibility was that he really didn't have a Martial Soul.
Remembering how the young man had said "your Douluo Continent," Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo suddenly began to believe that those two weren't from Douluo Continent...
Shen Luo looked at the crowd below the stage.
"Ah!!"
The people he looked at cried out in fright and hurriedly backed away.
Whichever way Shen Luo looked, the people there scrambled backward, terrified of being caught in the god's wrath.
Being invincible felt wonderful.
Unfortunately, he was only invincible on the stage. If he stepped another meter off it, he would get hurt.
He still didn't know how much damage level 90 Furina's Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst could do.
But judging by Douluo Continent's rock-bottom power level, it probably couldn't compare to Genshin Impact.
Even so, without knowing for sure, Shen Luo didn't dare make a comparison between the two sides' power levels.
Shen Luo said, "I told you, I came to bring you blessings. But those who act in ignorance are not guilty, so I can spare you this once."
Just then, someone timidly asked, "May I ask what the blessings are?"
Shen Luo chuckled. "I have many subordinates in the Divine Realm. They're very interested in Douluo Continent and are willing to descend upon Douluo as your Martial Souls and coexist with you."
Chrysanthemum Douluo was astonished. "You're giving us Martial Souls?"
Shen Luo said, "That's roughly what it means. You can even cultivate these Martial Souls. The better you cultivate them, the stronger they'll become."
Ghost Douluo clutched his chest and glanced timidly at Shen Luo. "For free?"
Shen Luo said, "Of course not. You need to pay Soul Power. It works as a lottery: one level of Soul Power for ten draws, with at least one four-star character guaranteed in ten."
Over the next while, Shen Luo explained the 50/50, the hard guarantee, the rate-up banner, and the standard banner to them in terms that were as easy to understand as possible.
But although everyone understood after hearing him out, they raised one objection after another.
The two Titled Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, were furious but dared not speak.
"We worked so hard to cultivate our Soul Power. If we pay it, won't it just be gone? Isn't that the same as taking our Soul Power away?!"
Shen Luo smiled without answering. If they didn't want it, someone else would surely be tempted. After all, not everyone had the strength of a Titled Douluo.
Just then, a middle-aged man suddenly stepped forward and said hesitantly, "Um... my Martial Soul is the Trash Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass. I've cultivated for forty years, and my Soul Power is still only level eight. May I give it a try?"
"Isn't that Li Er? What, do you really think you can defy the heavens and change your fate? Hahaha!"
Another middle-aged man stepped forward. He looked extremely arrogant, with a sneer plastered across his face. He was clearly a Soul Master with a fairly high Soul Power Level.
Li Er said angrily, "Zhang Daqiang, it's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering. You're a Soul Ancestor, so of course you don't know how hard the road has been for those of us with Trash Martial Souls!"
With that, he turned away in anger.
"My lord god, I'm willing to pay one level of Soul Power to try! I'm already a piece of trash anyway, so I might as well take a gamble!"
The Soul Ancestor named Zhang Daqiang watched with a smile, ready to see what sort of trick Li Er could pull.
Shen Luo said, "Douluo's Martial Souls can't withstand a single blow to begin with. No matter how much Soul Power you have, it's just for show. You might as well use it as capital to exchange for a new life with me."
His words drew snorts of contempt from everyone present.
Shen Luo didn't care. Smiling, he beckoned to Li Er. "Come forward. Put your hand in my palm and say in your heart how much Soul Power you wish to pay."
Standing below the stage, Li Er placed his hand in Shen Luo's palm and silently said that he would pay one level of Soul Power.
On the system panel, the ten-pull proceeded rapidly.
Each person's first draw was assigned a random rate-up banner. All their subsequent draws would remain on that banner until they obtained a rate-up five-star character, after which a new rate-up banner would be randomly selected.
Shen Luo glanced at the panel. The Soul Master named Li Er had actually been randomly assigned the Raiden Shogun's rate-up banner.
When the ten-pull ended, a purple meteor flashed across the panel.
[This draw: four-star Kujou Sara ×1, one-star Hunter's Bow ×6, two-star Seasoned Hunter's Bow ×3] [Host's gains: Soul Power ×1, Starglitter ×5, Stardust ×150]
The corners of Shen Luo's mouth rose. Not only did the Soul Power others paid go to him, but the Stardust awarded from the draws also belonged to him.
He'd hit the jackpot. Pretending to be a god really worked!
Then, a sight appeared that shocked everyone present!
Ten slots floated in midair before Li Er. In the first was a stern-looking young woman radiating purple light.
The nine slots behind her contained nine bows.
Kujou Sara flew out of the slot, and the label "four-star, lv1" appeared above her head. She quickly took shape as a phantom above and behind Li Er, just like a Martial Soul.
Soon, a [Seasoned Hunter's Bow] flew out of one of the remaining nine slots and into Kujou Sara's hand. At the same time, the other eight bows suddenly converged into the Seasoned Hunter's Bow.
The label displayed on the Seasoned Hunter's Bow changed to "two-star, refinement 1, lv5."
Li Er stared in disbelief, while the others were even more dumbstruck.
Watching from a distance, Chen Daqiang's eyes widened. "This is an illusion, right? It's definitely a trick!"
Li Er turned and snapped, "Zhang Daqiang! Don't call the grapes sour just because you can't have them!"
"Li Er, you're courting death!"
Seeing that the usually timid Li Er actually dared to humiliate him in public, Zhang Daqiang promptly released his Martial Soul. It was a green wolf!
Li Er raised his hands, and a [Seasoned Hunter's Bow] appeared in them out of thin air. He drew the bow, and behind him, Kujou Sara made the same motion, her expression stern.
[Kujou Sara - Elemental Skill]
Li Er first flashed backward, then charged his bow and fired at Zhang Daqiang.
But no attack landed on Zhang Daqiang. Only a purple feather slowly drifted down to his feet.
Zhang Daqiang grinned viciously. "All bluff, huh? Take my first Soul Skill!"
But just then, the purple feather suddenly erupted with surging lightning, instantly swallowing Zhang Daqiang whole.
"Aaaah!"
They looked at Zhang Daqiang, lying on the ground and convulsing all over as purple lightning coursed through his body...
Everyone stared, dumbstruck, and took a step back.
And now, the way they looked at Li Er had completely changed.
Li Er lowered his bow, beside himself with excitement.
He had possessed a Trash Martial Soul for decades and had always been bullied. When had he ever felt as satisfied as he did today?!
Chrysanthemum Douluo swallowed again and said to the guard beside him, "Go... go tell His Holiness the Pope about this too. We might have really met a god today."
P.S. If you've read this far, just add the book to your shelf, and you'll all get two five-stars in a ten-pull later, with max constellations and max refinement! My words have been blessed-don't doubt them.
