Douluo: Cutting me drops treasures; Bi Bidong got addicted

"Sixth soul skill! Eerie Ghost Howl!"

The Ghost Douluo's black sixth soul ring radiated light as he opened his mouth wide toward Lin Yi, with fangs eerily growing inside, making him appear like a ghost from the underworld.

"Howl——"

This spirit-eroding ghostly howl instantly engulfed Lin Yi.

Banners flapped wildly, floorboards creaked, and the crowd below clutched their ears in agony.

Only Lin Yi casually cleaned his ears, feeling no harm but admitting the noise was indeed a nuisance.

What kind of ludicrous soul skill is this...

Ghost Douluo, what on earth are you howling about?!

As the attack concluded, Ghost Douluo looked at Lin Yi expectantly, hoping for even the slightest reaction from him.

After all, quite a few people below had already fainted, foaming at the mouth.

Ghost Douluo realized he had been naive.

From beginning to end, Lin Yi maintained the same indifferent expression.

Ghost Douluo also realized that only when the inflicted damage was high enough would Lin Yi crack a smile.

[Loss of health: 90421]

[Remaining health: 999999369456]

[Damage Grade: Black (Junior)]

[Random Reward: Purifying Crystal (Downgraded to Purple Grade Pool)]

[Host Reward: Purifying Crystal*2]

The reward downgraded?

Lin Yi found it strange, but soon discovered the reason behind it.

He said to Ghost Douluo, "Damage 90421, black primary level damage, but it's a pity that your sixth soul skill doesn't seem to do as much damage as your fifth soul skill."

"So the reward downgraded, and you received a Purple Grade reward instead."

"Ah?!"

Ghost Douluo stood listening in a daze, then suddenly slapped his forehead with a regretful expression.

"Indeed, my sixth soul skill is more oriented toward control..."

"The rules were clear before; there's nothing we can do about it. Come back tomorrow."

"And the reward?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi pinched a purple orb of light with his right hand.

Even though the reward downgraded, seeing the light orb he had earned with his damage appear in Lin Yi's hand still excited Ghost Douluo, who knelt on one knee with a sincere expression.

Such was the scene.

Lin Yi seemed like a creator descending into the world, while his devoted follower knelt on one knee, awaiting the grace bestowed by the creator.

"Purifying Crystals have the power to cleanse internal toxins, hidden illnesses, dark corrosion, and various other negative effects. How it will specifically manifest in you depends on your own condition," Lin Yi said, and flicked the purple light orb toward Ghost Douluo, merging into his chest.

A white glow blossomed over Ghost Douluo, resembling a pristine snow lotus.

At that moment, a scene that surprised even Lin Yi unfolded.

The paleness in Ghost Douluo's face had started to regain color, the skull-like dark patterns on his face fading away like ink dispersing in water, vanishing into the air...

No longer did he seem to bear an eerie aura; he transformed as if from ghost to man, filled with righteousness, bathed in sunlight.

Lin Yi revealed an "I see" expression.

"Do you have a mirror? You can take a look now," said Lin Yi.

Ghost Douluo, puzzled, immediately shouted down to the audience, "Chrysanthemum, give me your mirror!"

Seeing Ghost Douluo's new appearance, Chrysanthemum Douluo was shocked for a moment before regaining composure and tossed up the mirror.

After seeing his reflection, Ghost Douluo was so startled that he fell back to the ground.

The person in the mirror was both unfamiliar and familiar to him...

Lin Yi then said, "Don't worry, the Purifying Crystal won't have any impact on your Martial Soul; it only changed your appearance."

"If I'm not wrong, that appearance of yours must have been a side effect of your Martial Soul, right?"

Ghost Douluo slowly sat up and nodded blankly.

"Yes, ever since my Martial Soul awakened at the age of six, I've had this ghostly appearance. I had no friends growing up and became very reclusive."

"It's been decades, but looking at this face now, for the first time I realize that I'm also a living person..." Ghost Douluo said and laughed, but his eyes were brimming with tears.

He looked up at Lin Yi, clasped his hands together, and knelt on one knee.

"I find this reward extraordinarily precious. Thank you, Senior, I am endlessly grateful!"

Lin Yi smiled and nodded in response.

He hadn't expected that a mere Purifying Crystal could indirectly cure Ghost Douluo.

If that was the case, it seemed that Purifying Crystals were effective against the side effects caused by Martial Souls.

Then Bi Bidong's Martial Soul...

Just then, a commotion arose from below the stage.

The Serpent Spear Douluo, who had been listening carefully to the entire process, was no longer calm…

Oh no, he should be called the Dragon Lance Douluo now.

He looked towards the Chrysanthemum Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo, grinding his teeth and saying, "Nice one, you two, setting me up on purpose, huh?!"

Realizing that Ghost Douluo's damage was not as high as the last time, and thus the reward was downgraded, the wise Dragon Lance Douluo immediately understood everything.

"I used my ninth soul skill for the first attack, how am I supposed to get rewards after that?"

The Dragon Lance Douluo complained bitterly and wanted to cry but had no tears to shed, "To think I actually believed it and used my ninth soul skill along with two other amplifying soul skills, that was the highest damage I could do…"

The Chrysanthemum Douluo's mouth twitched upon hearing this.

"Serpent Spear, if you still didn't reach High Level Black Damage with that, you're actually kinda weak…"

"Call me Dragon Lance!!"

The Dragon Lance Douluo roared in anger.

He unleashed his Martial Soul, and his surroundings were suddenly filled with the sounds of dragon roars.

The gold lance radiated majestic lightning, and standing below the stands, he looked like the chosen child of thunder and lightning.

"Serpent… Dragon Lance, you're serious? It was just a joke, man!"

Porcupine Douluo's red hair stood on end because of the electricity.

"Then you go up now! In front of me, release a ninth soul skill!"

Upon hearing this, Porcupine Douluo also revealed a face full of sorrow: "You're actually right, my last one was an eighth soul skill, and now all I have left to use is my ninth soul skill, I'm not much better off than you…"

The Dragon Lance Douluo was stunned, then again erupted in fury, "So you did set me up, didn't you?!"

"..."

Without another word, the Dragon Lance Douluo unleashed his Martial Soul True Body, and a two-headed dragon bellowed, its head lifting the Dragon Lance Douluo's body into the air.

The once two-headed serpent had now evidently transformed into a two-headed dragon!

Majestic and solemn, with thunder flashing and roaring!

Moreover, the dragon lineage was not of a low rank; Soul Masters with sub-dragon bloodlines simply collapsed onto the ground.

The powerful golden light erupted from his lance, and the lightning coalesced into a gigantic dragon head as it traveled.

"Roar—"

The Chrysanthemum Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo widened their eyes, simultaneously using soul skills to block, but their bodies were sent flying more than ten meters.

They sat up from the ground, dusty and disheveled, exchanging looks of terror.

Was this still the same Serpent Spear Douluo who ranked last in strength among the Elders of the Soul Hall?

Now, even the two of them together couldn't withstand one of his attacks!!!

Lin Yi was also stunned by the attack released by the Serpent Spear Douluo.

Now it seemed that even if two more Yang Wudis came, they would not be able to beat him.

The battle at Jialing Pass would have to be rewritten because of this.

But with their fighting, how was he supposed to seek death?

Lin Yi spoke with a cold tone:

"Stop immediately, otherwise go somewhere far to fight, don't do it here!"

Upon hearing this, the Serpent Spear Douluo panicked, his Martial Soul dissipated, and he tumbled down.

He stood straight and immediately bowed in apology: "I'm sorry! My bad!"

...

The Pontiff Hall.

The noble and cold Pope gazed with vacant eyes, looking out of the hall like a guardian child.

She murmured with her head down:

Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, Porcupine Douluo, Serpent Spear Douluo...

Had all these Elders she sent out died?

She crushed the armrest of the throne to smithereens, looking down at the Ghost Panther Douluo and the Demon Bear Douluo kneeling below, trembling violently.

The sound of ice colliding came from Bi Bidong's mouth:

"You two, if you don't come back within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, your fate will be the same as this pearl."

A pigeon egg-sized pearl was crushed into fine white dust in Bi Bidong's hand, scattering in the air.

The Ghost Panther Douluo and the Demon Bear Douluo hugged each other in terror: "Yes, Your Holiness!"

Bi Bidong closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

She refused to believe that she had to go out herself to verify the truth about that young man!

Hulena stood silently to the side, not daring to speak anymore.

She also didn't expect that for the four Elders, the temptation to return home was less than the allure of Senior Lin Yi...
