Chapter 51: Angel Domain or Saint King Domain
"Roar…"
The Golden Lion's temper flared.
These two humans were completely ignoring its existence!
It looked at Dai Mubai and Qian Renxue standing there "flirting" and felt its blood boil.
It was still single! Meanwhile, these two humans dared to show affection right in its face?
Unacceptable!
"Roar!"
With a deafening roar, the Golden Lion charged toward the two of them. Its massive form shook the earth with every step.
The sight of this giant beast barreling toward them finally snapped Qian Renxue out of her thoughts.
She couldn't afford to think about "Lin Fan" right now.
Spirit Possession!
Almost simultaneously, Dai Mubai and Qian Renxue activated their martial souls.
A holy golden radiance filled the area, illuminating the forest with an almost divine glow.
The Golden Lion paused briefly, startled by Qian Renxue's Six-Winged Angel martial soul.
But after a moment, it dismissed her.
She was just another winged human, nothing more.
However, when it felt Dai Mubai's martial soul—and the overwhelming ten-thousand-year beast aura radiating from him—it froze.
The lion's body trembled involuntarily.
What's going on?
This human had only four spirit rings, so why did he possess such a terrifying aura?
Could he be some high-level soul beast who turned human and started over?
Its instinct screamed that something was terribly wrong.
It took an involuntary step backward.
Suddenly, the Golden Lion remembered the aura from the previous night…
That powerful pressure that had rippled across the entire Star Dou Forest, leaving even mighty beasts trembling in submission.
The aura of this four-ringed human was exactly the same!
It couldn't comprehend the situation, but its instincts kicked in.
Run!
Without hesitation, the Golden Lion turned tail and fled.
Dai Mubai: "???"
He stared in utter confusion as the three-thousand-year-old Golden Lion sprinted away without looking back.
It… ran away? Just like that?
"What are you doing standing there? Chase it!"
Qian Renxue snapped, her wings spreading as she took off in pursuit.
A Golden Lion was far too valuable a light-attribute soul beast to let go.
Dai Mubai resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
"Is this my hunt or yours? Why are you more anxious than I am?"
Still, he knew there was no time to argue.
With a shake of his head, he activated Shave and shot forward like a bullet, quickly catching up.
Unlike the Golden Lion, which skillfully avoided trees, Dai Mubai bulldozed straight through them.
Trees splintered and crashed to the ground as he tore through the forest, leaving chaos in his wake.
In the shadows, Blood Douluo and She Long watched, their foreheads lined with cold sweat.
"Is… is this kid's body made of iron?"
Blood Douluo murmured incredulously.
The Golden Lion at least avoided obstacles, but Dai Mubai? He just smashed through everything!
"Terrifying…"
For the first time, they fully understood why Dai Mubai was so confident about absorbing a thirty-thousand-year spirit ring.
His physical strength was beyond anything they'd imagined for a fifty-level soul master.
Soon, Qian Renxue caught up to the Golden Lion, cutting off its path.
Dai Mubai arrived moments later, blocking its retreat.
The lion, realizing escape was impossible, let out an angry roar and prepared to fight.
But instead of targeting Dai Mubai, it turned its fury toward Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue frowned.
Why is it attacking me first?
"Angel Domain!"
She unleashed her innate domain ability.
A radiant golden light burst forth, engulfing the area.
The Angel Domain purified, suppressed, and weakened enemies while also boosting allies.
Dai Mubai immediately felt his overall attributes increase by about 10%.
He raised an eyebrow.
"Angel Domain?"
His martial soul had also granted him an innate domain after evolving, but he hadn't yet needed to use it.
Now seemed like a good opportunity.
"Saint King Domain!"
Dai Mubai activated his own domain.
Golden light flared from his body as a powerful pressure blanketed the area.
The Saint King Domain:
Boosts Dai Mubai's all attributes by 30%.Suppresses enemies' all attributes by 30% if they are at the same level.
For every 10 levels the enemy surpasses him, the suppression reduces by 10%, to a minimum of 10%.
For every 10 levels the enemy falls below him, the suppression increases by 10%, up to a maximum of 50%.
(Upgradable.)
Unlike Qian Renxue's Angel Domain, the Saint King Domain only enhanced himself—not his allies.
However, it didn't suppress allies either.
Qian Renxue blinked in surprise.
"A domain?"
She quickly pushed aside her shock. Given his martial soul, it made sense that he'd possess a domain too.
The real problem was the Golden Lion.
It was now under the combined suppression of two powerful domains.
The Golden Lion roared in frustration, its majestic form trembling.
Its strength was cut down to 60% of its original power.
And with Qian Renxue's Angel Domain continuously purifying its spirit energy, its situation only grew worse.
"Roar…"
The lion's furious roar now carried a note of despair.
It couldn't run. It couldn't fight.
What was it supposed to do?
"Let's go!"
Qian Renxue launched the first attack, her first spirit ring glowing brilliantly.
"First Spirit Skill: Angel Assault!"
A white glow enveloped her fist as she struck out.
At the same time, a radiant shield appeared around her—an ability similar to Dai Mubai's White Tiger Shield.
Dai Mubai activated his own first spirit skill in response.
"First Spirit Skill: Saint King Shield!"
