Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky

Chapter 210 Limit Douluo Physique and Powerful Return - Ma Xiaotao

Chapter 210 Limit Douluo Physique and Powerful Return - Ma Xiaotao

Back in his dormitory on Poseidon Island, the door was tightly shut, completely isolating him from the outside world. Kong Tianxu leaned against the door, carefully going over the whole incident from the beginning, as many vague details gradually became clear in his mind.

The feeling of having my soul power drained away was so similar to the time when the God of Destruction forcibly pulled my soul into the God Realm.

Therefore, this time it's probably not just the domineering medicinal power hidden in the Jiamu Divine Pill and the special environment of the Wutong Pavilion that contributed to its power; the divine power left behind by the Goddess of Life's blessing also probably contributed to its power invisibly.

However, judging from the final result—

It doesn't seem like I've lost out?

He raised his right hand, palm up, and his mind stirred slightly.

"call"

A cluster of pure and intense golden-red flames suddenly leaped from his palm without warning and burned quietly.

At the heart of that leaping flame, a delicate and noble aura flowed, identical to the phoenix flame origin that Ma Xiaotao had previously displayed. However, there were subtle differences in color and inner aura.

Although both are extreme fires, Ma Xiaotao's flames are more like the blazing crimson of a true phoenix, while his flames are a richer and more dazzling gold.

In terms of absolute temperature, it might be slightly inferior due to limitations in cultivation, but it contains a powerful and domineering aura of extreme yang and strength. In terms of pure destructive power, it might even surpass it.

It seems that due to the deep communication with Ma Xiaotao, the growth characteristics of the Jiamu Divine Pill have allowed its ultimate fire to evolve again, acquiring a bit of the phoenix flame's inexhaustible nature.

Moreover, unlike the Golden Crow True Fire he had obtained from Wu Ming last time, Kong Tianxu could clearly feel that this new source of flame was truly integrated into the depths of his own bloodline and could continue to grow as his cultivation level improved.

It was an unexpected gain.

Does this mean that if I cultivate with different partners frequently, I will have the opportunity to absorb the essence of their abilities and make them my own?

As his thoughts drifted to this, a series of beautiful faces with distinct personalities flashed uncontrollably through his mind.

Just as Kong Tianxu was staring at the cluster of flames in his palm, which symbolized top-level fire attribute power, his expression gradually became strange.

A pair of cool, soft little hands suddenly reached out from the side, with a hint of defiance, and "slap! slap! slap!" five times, as fast as lightning, actually slapped the golden-red flame in his palm that was strong enough to melt gold and iron, causing it to scatter sparks and be instantly extinguished, leaving not even a trace of warmth.

"My brother is bad!"

The figure of Xue Di quietly emerged amidst the scattered, crystalline ice crystals. She puffed out her fair, delicate cheeks, her sky-blue eyes wide and round, filled with resentment, mixed with a hint of barely perceptible shyness and grievance.

Kong Tianxu was taken aback at first, then seemed to understand something, and touched the tip of his nose somewhat embarrassedly.

Thinking back, I realized that I had previously secluded myself for a full six months to absorb the Mermaid's Tears and digest the insights gained from the Destruction of Divinity. This time, my "comprehension" within the Golden Tree was disrupted by an unexpected event, resulting in a total delay of quite a considerable period.

All things considered, this little girl has indeed been neglected for quite some time.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xue'er, always protecting me." As usual, he naturally reached out, wanting to pull her into his arms and comfort her.

Xue Di, however, was like a small ice crystal beast with its fur standing on end. She nimbly dodged to the side.

However, Kong Tianxu is no longer the same as before, so how could he let her get what she wanted so easily?

Since being subdued by Kong Tianxu with the power of the contract, Xue Di has preferred to maintain a barefoot, airborne posture. She is doing the same in the room now, her figure elusive and her agility far surpassing that of someone who is on the ground.

But Kong Tianxu reached out with his large hands, moving with almost unreasonable speed, creating a slight whooshing sound as he instantly and accurately captured the icy blue figure that was trying to escape.

Xue Di subconsciously tried to break free, but considering Kong Tianxu's health, she only used half her strength. However, to her surprise, the arms holding her did not budge.

How did my brother become so strong?

A wave of utter astonishment washed over her. You see, while her true form, the Ice and Snow Maiden, was formed from the bloodline of the Ice God, drawing upon the coldest elements of heaven and earth, and wasn't a spirit beast known for its physical strength, as a 690,000-year-old spirit beast king, her physical strength surpassed that of an average Limit Douluo. Yet, she couldn't even budge Kong Tianxu's hands?

This is definitely not the kind of physical body a Super Douluo level should have!

Xue Di subconsciously turned her head, her cute little face full of confusion.

Kong Tianxu's current physical strength is certainly not limited to the Super Douluo realm.

The greatest function of the Dragon Pill is to help Soul Masters cleanse their physical bodies of impurities, fundamentally purifying and sublimating their bloodline and bones.

In short, if a Soul Master can fully digest and absorb the Dragon Pill, their physical strength will approach or even surpass that of a real dragon.

From then on, even if he broke through all the way to the peak of Limit Douluo, he no longer needed to worry about his physical body being unable to bear the ever-growing soul power.

This is precisely why the Dragon Pill is considered a supreme treasure in the Soul Master world. For the vast majority of Soul Masters, the biggest problem they face after reaching the later stages of cultivation is physical strength.

Especially after reaching the level of Super Douluo, in most cases, they haven't even touched the level of comprehension before they enter a bottleneck because they can't withstand the even greater amount of soul power.

To fully unleash the extraordinary properties of the Dragon Pill, the fusion process cannot simply integrate it into the soul power cycle. Instead, its essence must be guided to thoroughly integrate into the depths of the bloodline, fundamentally transforming the physique and allowing the human body to possess certain dragon abilities, thus transcending the purely human realm.

However, Kong Tianxu, through sheer chance, managed to perfectly unleash the effects of the Dragon Pill. Compared to Huo Yuhao's nine cuts and eighteen holes in the original story, he suffered no damage during the absorption process, but his body became much more ethereal, and he had no soul power left at all.

All of these factors combined have ultimately created his current powerful physique, comparable to that of a Limit Douluo!

Even so, he only absorbed a small portion of the essence of the Dragon Pill's power; the vast majority of the remaining energy was still highly compressed within his body.

Kong Tianxu whispered in Xue Di's ear, coaxing, "Okay, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have neglected you like that the other day."

He shouldn't have mentioned it, because his words caused Xue Di's expression, which had been somewhat stunned by surprise, to change instantly. Her delicate body, which had been gradually softening, seemed to have been ignited by some kind of memory fuse. Her fair face flushed with an alluring blush at a visible speed, spreading all the way to her crystal-clear ears and even her neck was tinged with a light pink.

She glared at Kong Tianxu angrily, her eyes revealing an unprecedented emotion.

Seeing that she couldn't escape and didn't want to really hurt Kong Tianxu, Xue Di suddenly became surrounded by cold air, and countless tiny ice crystals and snowflakes danced wildly in the air. Her figure also quickly became transparent.

"Brother, you should cultivate on your own!"

A nearly sobbing complaint drifted through the air, and her figure had completely vanished, leaving only a wisp of cold chill slowly dissipating in the room.

Kong Tianxu's arm, which was about to move, froze in mid-air. His arms felt empty, which made him smile bitterly.

He shook his head, about to begin his cultivation, when suddenly, a belated thought flashed through his mind: Xue'er had been secretly protecting him in the Wutong Pavilion, never leaving his side; everything that had happened inside the pavilion—

Kong Tianxu's face immediately showed a complex expression of being both amused and exasperated. However, he naturally wouldn't let such a thing disturb his mind for too long. He quickly exhaled a breath of turbid air, temporarily suppressing his slightly chaotic thoughts.

Sitting cross-legged on the meditation couch, Kong Tianxu closed his eyes, held his breath, and began to fully circulate his soul power to digest the vast energy he had gained on this trip, stabilizing the surge in power and the new source of flame.

As he breathed deeply and rhythmically, a faint light suddenly appeared in his dantian.

Immediately afterwards, a layer of pure and noble pale golden light, as if a seal had been broken, surged out from the dantian and quickly spread to the limbs and bones.

This golden energy was completely integrated into the depths of his bloodline, as if it were an integral part of him.

In just a few breaths, all the meridians in Kong Tianxu's body had turned into a dazzling gold. Even the flowing blood, the pulsating internal organs, and even the strongest bones all showed a pale gold color after being thoroughly soaked and transformed by the essence of the Dragon Pill.

From the outside, Kong Tianxu appeared solemn and dignified, his entire body shimmering with golden light, like a deity descended to earth. Even more astonishing was the appearance of fine, delicate, illusory scales beginning to emerge on his body.

The scales were also pure gold, as if sculpted from the finest gold, with an inner radiance. They gradually solidified, growing larger and connecting with each other, eventually covering Kong Tianxu's entire body except for his face.

Dragon scales! These are the scales of the Holy Dragon of Light, and they are truly formed from flesh and blood, not from condensed soul power.

These golden colors are not only an external manifestation, but are also undergoing the deepest fusion with Kong Tianxu's physical body, becoming an inseparable part of his body.

A series of deep and majestic dragon roars began to emanate from the depths of his bones, meridians, and even blood.

The sound was not loud, but it was deep and resonant, as if it contained some ancient and vast power. It rose and fell with the tides of Kong Tianxu's soul power circulating throughout the body, one sound after another, far and endless, as if it would never end.

Inside the dormitory, the atmosphere was heavy and deep, with only the continuous low dragon roars, accompanied by the sound of the soul power flowing like a surging river within Kong Tianxu's body, weaving together a heart-stirring symphony of transformation.

In a daze, it seemed as if an ancient dragon, dormant for ten thousand years, had truly awakened within his body, stretching out its ancient form that blotted out the sky. Every dragon scale was breathing in the essence of heaven and earth, and every dragon bone was growing and strengthening, radiating a majestic aura that commanded the instinctive awe of all things and reigned supreme over the world.

Golden Dragon Bloodline, Silver Dragon Bloodline, Ultimate Ice Attribute, Ultimate Fire Attribute, and the even more powerful Light Attribute brought by the Dragon Pill.

Everything is ready; only the final surge of spiritual power is needed for his Silver Dragon Martial Soul to complete its final transformation before reaching the supreme Lord of the Heavens, truly—

Soaring into the sky!

A month later.

After disappearing for three whole years, the Flame Demon Ma Xiaotao has made a powerful return from the Star Dou Great Forest with the power of a Seven-Ring Soul Saint of Ultimate Fire.

The ripples that had just subsided due to a series of previous events at Shrek Academy were stirred up once again.

On her first day back at Shrek Academy, she swiftly challenged several renowned top experts from the inner courtyard, seemingly with the intention of comparing herself to Kong Tianxu.

A Soul Saint with a seven-ringed ultimate martial soul can be considered a top-tier expert at the level of an ordinary Title Douluo. Even among the remaining Soul Saints in the Inner Academy, who are elites nurtured by Shrek Academy's resources, almost none are top-tier geniuses capable of fighting beyond their level at the seven-ringed level, which is considered a high-level Soul Master.

Faced with Ma Xiaotao, who had been dormant for three whole years and was bursting with pent-up anger, they naturally crumbled at the slightest touch and were utterly defeated.

Crisp and efficient.

In particular, several people who had been critical of her loss in the previous All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament were thoroughly roasted by her phoenix flames.

Golden-red phoenix flames swept across the inner courtyard's martial arts arena, burning away all doubts and disdain.

With her outstanding achievements, Ma Xiaotao proclaimed to the entire Shrek Academy, and to a certain specific person, that the genius girl who was once troubled by the evil fire had been reborn and returned as a queen in a more powerful and perfect form.
