Ye Yang Battles the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger! Qian Renxue's Soul Bone Reward!
Ye Yang's cloak was naturally not clothing, but something formed from his own leaves.
He had learned this trick from Ah Yin.
Ah Yin's clothes were also formed from her own leaves.
Once her Spiritual Power reached the Spirit Sea Realm, she could precisely control her leaves, weaving them into threads to make living clothes.
Now, Ye Yang had once again transformed into a "scarecrow" and wrapped his entire body in a cloak of leaves.
All Qian Renxue could see was his tall, straight back.
"You are..."
Qian Renxue was both delighted and puzzled.
She had met all seven of the Worshippers, and he was none of them.
When death had threatened her just now, she had imagined her powerful father or her unfathomable grandfather coming to save her.
But neither had come.
Instead, a mysterious powerhouse like this had appeared.
"Don't ask so many questions. Leave everything to me!"
The voice Ye Yang produced by vibrating his leaves had the rich resonance of a baritone announcer. It was pleasant to hear.
It also carried a domineering authority that brooked no refusal.
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped up, touched down on a treetop, and thrust the spear in his hand at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was on Ye Yang's must-kill list!
The demonic tiger was simply too sinister, giving Ye Yang a sense of danger.
Moreover, its bloodline was bound to be powerful, and it could give him the Evolution Points he sorely lacked!
Its Spiritual Power was bound to be strong as well.
Absorbing its Soul Power would actually be the smallest gain.
Ye Yang also wanted to test just how powerful the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was.
Killing it would be best, but even if he could not, he would be mentally prepared for their next encounter.
Besides, he had another little scheme in mind.
He wanted Holy Dragon Douluo to set his mind at ease and devote himself fully to fighting Da Ming and Er Ming.
If both sides ended up badly wounded, might he not once again be the fisherman who profited from their struggle?
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Ye Yang kept leaping into the air, twisting his body nimbly in midair.
He wielded two spears: the Mandala Snake Tail Soul Bone and another spear fused with a leg of the Eight Spider Lances. He fought the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger from a considerable distance.
The Life and Death Arena was far too bizarre and terrifying. Ye Yang was afraid of being dragged inside, so he kept his distance and remained on guard the whole time.
Roar!
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was furious as well.
It desperately coveted Qian Renxue's flesh, blood, and Martial Soul.
And the powerhouse who had suddenly appeared gave it a strange feeling.
He did not seem to be human, but more like a Soul Beast.
It also had a premonition that devouring him would cause it to undergo a tremendous transformation.
If it killed the powerhouse before it, it would have two great prizes!
So it did not hesitate either, fighting Ye Yang with all its might.
Ye Yang was not very adept at fighting in the treetops, and with his identity and Soul Bone to conceal, he could not fight freely.
He drew the battle toward the ground.
But the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger saw through Ye Yang's intentions. The cunning creature wanted to keep the battle in the air.
Damn it! Don't let me catch a chance to go all out, or I'll thrash you with one hand!
Ye Yang was frustrated by the fight and cursed inwardly.
The two fought fiercely, their battlefield constantly shifting from the treetops to the ground and back into the air.
Qian Renxue also seized opportunities now and then to unleash Holy Light with all her strength.
This was the Soul Skill of her Second Soul Ring. It could strengthen positive attributes such as light while suppressing attributes such as darkness.
It was much like a temporary holy domain.
Though intermittent, it interfered with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger every time.
It also gave Ye Yang a boost.
Besides Holy Light, the Holy Angel's energy also included the energy of Solar True Fire.
That also benefited Ye Yang's true form, the Blue Silver Grass.
This little girl is actually pretty useful!
Ye Yang was surprised.
Hum!
He did not know how much time had passed when Holy Dragon Douluo, drenched in blood in the distance, suddenly radiated a vastly stronger presence!
He had broken through!
From the peak of level 96 to level 97!
After becoming a Super Douluo, breaking through was extraordinarily difficult.
The most important reason was that the gap between each level was enormous.
Before reaching Soul Saint, and even among Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo, there were monstrous geniuses who could fight above their level.
Fighting someone three or five levels higher was perfectly normal.
There were even Soul Kings who fought Battle Soul Emperors, and Soul Saints who fought Soul Douluo.
For chosen geniuses, even fighting across major ranks was not impossible.
But after becoming a Super Douluo, such cases were almost nonexistent.
One reason was that they were all geniuses and monsters.
Otherwise, they could not possibly become Super Douluo, or even Titled Douluo.
A level 96 Soul Master had twenty percent more Soul Power than one at level 95!
That was no small amount.
A Titled Douluo's Soul Power was immensely vast. A twenty percent gap was not the difference between 100 and 120, but between one billion and 1.2 billion-a difference of 200 million!
And a level 97 Soul Master had another twenty percent more Soul Power than one at level 96, and forty-four percent more than one at level 95!
The difference in the abundance of Soul Power between levels 98 and 97 reached thirty percent.
Level 99 had forty percent more than level 98!
In the original story, Grandmaster, who could only analyze things in theory, said that a level 99 Limit Douluo could only contend with four level 95 Titled Douluo.
That was pure bullshit!
In fact, the author of the original story had not understood and analyzed power sufficiently, and the power system had fallen apart.
The power system in Douluo II was a little more refined.
After becoming a Super Douluo, each level gained was equivalent to a Ferocious Beast gaining 100,000 years!
A Ferocious Beast over 700,000 years old was comparable to a human level 99 Limit Douluo and could single-handedly kill a group of 100,000-year Soul Beasts or Soul Masters below level 95.
An absolute gap in power brought about a qualitative change.
Forget level 99; even a level 97 could suppress four level 95s.
Killing them, of course, was difficult.
Ye Yang loved watching wildlife programs. The animals' fighting techniques were simple, and they mainly relied on the strength of their claws and teeth to win.
They provided the most representative examples for analyzing strength.
And size was the source of strength.
On the African savanna, a lioness weighing 150 kilograms could thrash two hyenas weighing seventy or eighty kilograms each.
Two lionesses were evenly matched with five hyenas.
Three hyenas, meanwhile, could suppress one lioness.
A male lion weighed 200 kilograms and was only about a third stronger than a lioness.
Yet one male lion could crush two or three lionesses.
Male lions often charged single-handedly into hyena packs with more than a dozen members, slaughtering them in all directions with awe-inspiring might!
That was suppression!
Once the gap in strength reached more than twofold, it was not something three or five opponents could make up for through numbers.
It was like an adult fighting a group of elementary school students.
A twofold gap in strength required at least ten times the number to balance it out!
At present, there were no level 97 Super Douluo on the Douluo Continent.
It would be more than twenty years before Sword Douluo broke through to level 97.
Tang Xiao and Tang Hao would also have reached it in the future originally, but Tang Xiao was already dead, and Tang Hao's future was uncertain.
Now, the instant Holy Dragon Douluo broke through to level 97, the situation was reversed.
Even so, he had truly seen how terrifying the two kings of the forest were.
Forget having just broken through to level 97; even if he reached level 98, he might not be able to kill them!
Two Ferocious Beasts comparable to 200,000-year Soul Beasts were simply too terrifying when they joined forces.
He had only been at the peak of level 96 just now. It was truly a stroke of luck that he had not died.
Holy Dragon Douluo did not know that he really had been very lucky.
In the future, Da Ming and Er Ming were powerful Soul Beasts who would hold out for more than ten days under siege by level 99 Bibi Dong and the two level 95 Titled Douluo, Ghost and Chrysanthemum!
He prepared to leave.
With his strength, it would be difficult for Da Ming and Er Ming to keep him there.
Driving him back or injuring him was easy; killing him was hard.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and Ye Yang also instantly lost their will to fight.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in particular turned and took a blow from Ye Yang's Soul Bone spear before fleeing in panic, blood scattering across the sky.
As for Ye Yang, he stood with his spears in hand and his back to Qian Renxue, looking every bit like an expert.
"I'm leaving."
He spoke calmly, concealing his deeds and name.
"Senior, please wait!"
"Thank you for saving my life, Senior. Xiao Xue has little with which to thank you, so please accept this Soul Bone."
Holy shit!
Ye Yang's heart gave a lurch.
What was that? A Soul Bone?
