One month later, in the core area of Star Dou Forest.
Tuoba Yan and his grandfather were resting in a cave.
Tuoba Yan looked somewhat tired.
Tuoba Xi asked with concern, "Yan'er, are you worried?"
After searching for more than a month, Tuoba Yan still could not find any trace of the dog.
It would be a lie to say I'm not in a hurry.
In the vast Starry Sky Forest, finding a specific dog is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.
Tuoba Yan took out a restorative medicine from his storage soul tool and drank it.
In the past month or so, apart from finding the Hell Demon Dragon King, they did not encounter any other soul beasts with an age of over 100,000 years.
"I almost forgot. The Pope has something for you."
"pope?"
"Yes."
As he spoke, Tuoba Xi took out a medal from his own storage belt.
"Purple Record Medal!"
The medal is set with a purple gemstone, and the rest is made of pure gold.
"The Pope said that you won the championship at the Tiandou Empire's Genius Exchange Tournament, defeating many geniuses of the Tiandou Empire and bringing glory to the Spirit Hall. Your achievements have qualified you for the Purple Record Medal. The Pope also said that she believes in your strength. When you are qualified for the Black Record Medal, she will personally award the medal to you in front of everyone."
As Tuoba Xi spoke, he held the medal in his hands and presented it to Tuoba Yan.
Tuoba Yan casually reached out and took the Purple Record Medal, playing with it for a while before saying, "It has absolutely no trace of soul power; it's not a soul tool!"
"Yan'er, you can't say that. Medals are honors. They may be useless to ordinary people, but for us staff, they are a booster for promotion."
Position?
Tuoba Yan was not interested in the position.
His ambition is to ascend to the realm of gods.
Everything in the mortal realm was irrelevant to him. He didn't care much about so-called honor.
Half an hour later, the essence of the medicine continued to be absorbed, and Tuoba Yan's energy and spirit continued to recover.
Once he has fully recovered his mental strength, he will use it to search for the dog, just like he has done before.
Suddenly, a very strong energy fluctuation came from outside.
Tuoba Yan opened his eyes, but Tuoba Xi was nowhere to be seen.
When he arrived outside the cave, he found his grandfather falling from the sky and sliding on the ground.
Tuoba Yan rushed forward anxiously, supporting Tuoba Xi's back with his hands to steady Tuoba Xi's body.
"puff!"
Tuoba Xi coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"Humans, you have invaded my cave. Considering the difficulty of your cultivation, leave at once."
The one speaking is not a human being.
It is a dog.
It is over five meters long, extremely robust, and somewhat resembles a lion, but it has three identical large heads. Each head is over one meter in diameter, and its terrifying canine teeth gleam with a reddish-gold luster.
"The Three-Headed Red Demon Mastiff!"
Tuoba Yan looked excited.
I searched for him a thousand times, but to my utter surprise, the dog I had been looking for for over a month came to me on its own.
No.
It was Tuoba Yan and Tuoba Xi who accidentally stumbled into the chi Wang's cave.
"Yan'er, is that it?"
"It's it, it's it, it's definitely it. It's the Three-Headed Crimson Demon Hound, the chi Wang among the Ten Ferocious Beasts."
The chi Wang, the three-headed Red Demon Hound.
A dog is a dog.
Tuoba Yan's soul power level has reached level fifty.
After the assassination attempt, he decided to name his fifth spirit ring the chi Wang.
It is worth mentioning that the chi Wang possesses some of the bloodline of a pure-blooded true dragon.
Look, the golden flames rising from its body are very much in line with the attributes of Tuoba Yan's Holy Lord Martial Soul.
Four spirit rings rose from beneath Tuoba Yan's feet.
Tuoba Yan pried off the sheep talisman, ox talisman, and horse talisman from the Holy Lord's Martial Soul in one go and handed all three talismans to Tuoba Xi.
Tuoba Xi didn't waste any words.
Even though he advanced to become a Title Douluo and possessed a spirit ring with a lifespan of 200,000 years, he was still severely injured by the chi Wang during their recent battle.
The chi Wang is 90,000 years older than the Purple Princess, and his combat power is also much stronger.
Having obtained the talisman, Tuoba Xi immediately used the horse talisman to instantly heal his injuries.
"Seventh Soul Skill: White-Armored Earth Dragon True Form!"
The chi Wang's crimson vertical pupils were fixed on Tuoba Xi. Its three heads opened their huge mouths at the same time, and golden hellfire surged between its teeth like magma. The temperature in the air suddenly soared, and even the surrounding trees began to wither and turn black at a visible speed.
"Humans, you dare linger after injuring me? Today, you will become nourishment for this Star Dou Forest!"
The middle head let out a low roar, and two golden pillars of fire spewed out from the left and right ends. Wherever the pillars of fire passed, the ground was scorched with two deep trenches, and they rushed towards Tuoba Xi and his grandson with an aura of destruction.
Having just healed his injuries with the Horse Talisman, Tuoba Xi dared not be negligent. He activated his seventh soul skill, "White Armor Earth Dragon True Form," and a massive phantom of an earth dragon covered his entire body, its dark golden scales gleaming with a metallic sheen. He took a sudden step forward, and a thick, earthen-yellow light shield appeared in front of him.
That was his fourth soul skill, "Earth Dragon Barrier".
"boom!"
The golden pillar of fire crashed into the light shield, producing a deafening roar. The light shield was instantly covered with cracks, and Tuoba Xi groaned as he was forced back three steps by the impact.
Upon seeing this, the chi Wang raised all three heads, and a larger golden fireball condensed in its mouth. The fireball even contained tiny bolts of lightning, clearly indicating that it had been fused with the power of its true dragon bloodline.
"Yan'er, step back! This beast's hellfire can burn soul power; you can't take it head-on!"
Tuoba Xi shouted, and his second soul ring lit up. Countless earth spikes burst from the ground, forming a thick earthen wall in an attempt to hinder the chi Wang's offensive.
"How dare an ant provoke me, the king?"
The head on the left suddenly turned towards Tuoba Yan, and a golden flame lashed out like a whip, so fast that it was impossible to dodge.
At the critical moment, Tuoba Xi stood in front of Tuoba Yan, using his Earth Dragon True Body to withstand the flaming whip.
Golden flames burned on his scales, sizzling as Tuoba Xi frowned, clearly enduring considerable pain.
Fortunately, thanks to the Holy Lord Martial Soul, Ma Fuzhou's injuries were instantly healed once again.
In the repeated battles, whenever the chi Wang injured Tuoba Xi, Tuoba Xi was like an unkillable cockroach, stubbornly recovering each time.
Unable to kill his opponent in time, the chi Wang grew increasingly agitated, and all three heads simultaneously let out a dragon-like roar.
This time, the golden flames around it suddenly surged, forming a vortex of fire that enveloped it.
It is one of its soul skills, "Crimson Prison Vortex".
The vortex contained terrifying tearing and burning forces, even distorting space itself slightly.
"Enough, the time has come!"
A resolute glint flashed in Tuoba Xi's eyes, and the first eight spirit rings on his body lit up simultaneously, his spirit power surging like a tsunami. The ninth, pitch-black spirit ring suddenly shone brightly.
"Ninth Soul Skill: Heavenly Demon Dance of Heavenly Secrets!"
In an instant, countless purplish-black light bands burst forth from Tuoba Xi's body. These light bands, like living venomous snakes, meandered through the air, tearing the space in their wake with tiny black cracks and emitting a chilling fluctuation.
As soon as the band of light appeared, a gap was forcibly torn open in the chi Wang's vortex of flames, and the purplish-black energy collided with the golden flames, producing a piercing sizzling sound.
"What the hell is this thing?"
The chi Wang's head in the middle showed a look of surprise and doubt. It felt its hellfire being devoured and cut by those bands of light.
Before it could react, dozens of beams of light surged forth like a tide, some wrapping around its limbs, others rushing straight at its head, with cutting force and mental impact erupting simultaneously.
"Aww!"
A beam of light grazed the left side of the chi Wang's head, instantly tearing open its tough fur and creating a deep, bone-revealing wound. Golden blood gushed out, and at the same time, a sharp spiritual force pierced its soul, causing its vision to go black.
Just then, the chi Wang's gaze swept over the red-glowing spirit ring on Tuoba Xi's body. It was the two-hundred-thousand-year spirit ring he had obtained from Zi Ji.
Before her death, Biji and Chi Wang were both ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Forest, and their auras were very familiar to each other. At this moment, the faint aura remaining on the soul ring was instantly captured by Chi Wang under the mental impact of Tianmo Wu Tianji.
"It was you! You killed Brigitte!"
The chi Wang instantly flew into a rage, and all three heads simultaneously let out a roar that shook the forest. The golden hellfire suddenly became even more violent, and even took on a bloody hue.
Its true dragon bloodline fully awakened, its body swelled up, and a blurry dragon horn phantom appeared on its head.
This is its strongest soul skill, "Infernal Dragon Meteor".
"I will make you pay with your life!"
Ignoring the purple-black light bands wrapped around his body, the chi Wang allowed them to cut countless wounds into his body. With his last bit of strength, he condensed all his soul power and bloodline power into a huge blood-red fireball, which crashed down on Tuoba Xi with a world-destroying momentum.
Tuoba Xi opened his mouth, and his ninth spirit ring shone with an even stronger human light.
"Ninth Soul Skill: Abyss Devouring!"
Tuoba Xi was extremely crazy.
With his mouth wide open, his martial spirit, the White Armored Earth Dragon, also opened its giant maw, releasing a powerful black hole.
This vortex can draw in all surrounding matter and energy.
Whether it's solid rock, towering trees, or the soul skill light unleashed by enemies, nothing can withstand the suction force of the abyss.
The absorbed matter will be instantly broken down within my body and transformed into my own power, used to heal injuries or enhance subsequent attacks.
At this moment, Tuoba Xi was facing the chi Wang, a soul beast with a lifespan of nearly 300,000 years and one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.
Faced with the chi Wang's trump card, the Fiery Dragon Meteorite, Tuoba Xi actually dared to open his mouth and devour it.
The dragon-shaped phantom was continuously swallowed by the black vortex.
Tuoba Xi's body began to turn red and hot.
The abyss's devouring power is not insurmountable.
The ability to absorb is limited.
If the number of things consumed exceeds a critical point, the devourer will explode and die.
The white-armored earth dragon began to heat up.
This is the specific manifestation of the hellfire being devoured within the body reaching a certain critical point.
Martial Soul and Soul Master are closely linked. If this continues, Tuoba Xi is highly likely to explode and die.
The three dog heads of the chi Wang spoke up in unison.
"Swallow, swallow, swallow! I'll let you swallow to your heart's content!"
The chi Wang increased his soul power output.
The White Armor Earth Dragon Martial Soul began to emit abnormal golden flames.
At the same time, Tuoba Xi fully activated the Heavenly Demon Dance, transforming the soul power from the devoured hellfire into a soul skill.
Even so, the rate of absorption still cannot keep up with the rate of output.
"Die!"
The chi Wang went completely berserk.
It gave up struggling and focused all its soul power on itself.
Thin red cracks began to appear on the white-armored earth dragon's flesh. Golden flames emerged from the cracks.
Tuoba Xi's physical body reached the point of exploding.
"You want me dead? Not so easy!"
Tuoba Xi looked smug.
He was multitasking, using two of the ninth soul ring's soul skills while simultaneously channeling his soul power into the horse talisman to heal himself.
The horse talisman couldn't grant immortality, but it allowed Tuoba Xi to feel no pain, allowing him to fight the chi Wang with all his might.
"Boom!"
A violent explosion rang out in the core area of the Starry Sky Forest, and the shockwave blew up all the trees within dozens of miles.
After the smoke and dust cleared, the chi Wang's massive body lay on the ground, covered with deep, bone-revealing wounds. Golden blood stained the earth, and he was barely clinging to life.
Tuoba Xi was also pale, with blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating that using his ninth soul skill had greatly depleted his energy.
Tuoba Yan strode up to the chi Wang, looking at this once-mighty beast that had dominated the Star Dou Forest. His eyes held no pity, only a thirst for power. "Grandpa, it's not quite dead yet. I'll use it for my fifth spirit ring."
Tuoba Xi nodded, panting, and said, "Be careful, its bloodline power hasn't completely dissipated yet, and there might be a backlash when you absorb it."
Tuoba Yan took a deep breath, and the Holy Lord Martial Soul was released once again.
