If it weren't for his ignorance that Ling Zichen's mount was a modified Red-level mecha, and his carelessness in not striking hard enough, Ling Zichen and his group would have been dead long ago.
The Dark Hummingbird brought its right index and middle fingers together and gently hooked them.
With a "whoosh," the bee stinger he had previously flung out drew a strange arc in the air before accelerating rapidly, piercing through Ling Zichen's red-level mech's thigh with unparalleled precision, like a venomous snake hunting its prey!
"Crack!"
With a piercing metallic crack, the small mechs, each the size of two or three adults, suddenly lost their balance and crashed heavily to the ground.
Driven by inertia, the mech slid uncontrollably toward the Dark Hummingbird.
Facing the mech sliding towards it, Dark Hummingbird calmly stretched out an arm and easily blocked the mech's impact.
The Dark Hummingbird looked down at Ling Zichen, who was covered in blood, a cruel smile curling at the corner of its lips. Its voice was hoarse and cold as it said, "Chief Scientist of the Tang Sect, do you have any last words?"
"Maybe in the future I can pass this message on to your companions."
Panting heavily, Ling Zichen didn't answer immediately, but stared at the dark hummingbird with hatred.
The way the dark hummingbird looked at it was just like a dying beast making a final desperate attempt to tear open the hunter's throat.
"Pooh!"
Ling Zichen coughed up a mouthful of blood. "Have you ever heard the roar of the sun?"
"The roar of the sun? What is that?"
The dark hummingbird paused, its brow furrowing slightly.
He was somewhat bewildered by Ling Zichen's sudden words.
But soon, his eyes returned to their cold and cruel expression, since Ling Zichen would soon be a corpse anyway.
Just as the Dark Hummingbird raised its stinger, ready to strike, it heard Ling Zichen's face reveal a triumphant smile.
"Then come with me to listen to the roar of the sun!"
As Ling Zichen uttered those words, an unprecedented sense of unease suddenly surged into the Dark Hummingbird's heart, and without a second thought, the Dark Hummingbird retreated rapidly.
"Boom~"
A blinding white light burst forth from Ling Zichen's body, just like a real sun.
A tremendous roar shattered the air, and the ground was instantly engulfed by a terrifying white light.
The intense heat, enough to scorch the heavens, along with shockwaves capable of destroying everything, spread violently in all directions, engulfing everything in its path and turning it into dust.
"What is that???"
Zhao Song and the other Tang Clan experts who were rushing to provide support felt a sudden chill in their hearts as they watched the pillar of light shooting into the sky, and they increased their speed once again.
When the light from the explosion faded, only a bottomless crater remained at the center of the explosion. Ling Zichen's body, along with the wreckage of the red-level mech, was completely destroyed in the blast.
"..."
Looking at the half of his sleeve that had been blown off, Dark Hummingbird had a gloomy face and was very unhappy.
As the head of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult, he was actually outsmarted by an ordinary person.
If he hadn't retreated quickly enough, it wouldn't have been as simple as having half his sleeve blown off.
After confirming that Ling Zichen was dead without a trace, the Dark Hummingbird turned and left without lingering.
"waste!"
Leng Yulai, who had been watching the battle from a distance, looked at the departing figure of the Dark Hummingbird and spoke with disdain.
If the Dark Hummingbird hadn't lingered here with Ling Zichen for so long, she would have already taken Ling Zichen's body tissue back to find Su Mo.
"In that case, I should go back and report."
Sensing the approaching presence rapidly approaching from afar, Leng Yulai stretched and muttered to herself.
Although Ling Zichen's body was completely destroyed in the explosion, leaving not a single hair behind.
But as a quasi-god, she already knew Ling Zichen's intentions before the Dark Hummingbird could even react.
Almost the instant Ling Zichen self-destructed, she used spatial power to sever one of Ling Zichen's fingers.
Douluo Continent III: Limit Douluo is divided into three realms: Quasi-Demigod, Demigod, and Quasi-God.

Chapter 52 Ling Zichen's Uncanny Confidence
After obtaining Ling Zichen's body tissue, Leng Yulai returned to Donghai City, but did not go directly to Su Mo's villa in the center of Donghai City.
Instead, they went to a secluded cave on the coastline of Donghai City.
As soon as Leng Yulai broke through the space and entered the cave, she saw that Su Mo had been waiting there for a long time.
This is Su Mo's secret base in Donghai City, a natural cave with no entrance.
On weekdays, Su Mo's shadow clones work here day and night to create summoning scrolls and ninja tools.
Since there is no entrance, the only way to get in and out of this place is by using spatial abilities.
However, whether in the Naruto world or the Douluo Continent, spatial abilities are an extremely noble ability that not everyone can possess.
Even Su Mo himself only knows the Flying Thunder God Technique, a space-time ninjutsu.
Otherwise, the only way to get in is to forcefully break through the wall from the outside.
However, due to the internal structure of the cave, once the cave walls are damaged over a large area, the entire cave will collapse and become a pile of ruins.
Therefore, this cave is extremely safe!
At Su Mo's feet, a woman with her hands, feet, and mouth bound was writhing. Leng Yulai looked at her somewhat familiarly, but couldn't quite place her.
It doesn't matter anyway, don't say she just thought the other person looked familiar.
Even if the person tied up right now was her own sister, Leng Yaozhu, she wouldn't say anything.
Upon seeing Leng Yulai appear, the woman who was prostrate at Su Mo's feet seemed to have seen a savior and excitedly crawled towards Leng Yulai.
But the woman's movements quickly froze, because she saw that the usually cold and ruthless Dark Phoenix Douluo was actually happily hugging the demon beside him tightly in his arms.
The happy smile on Leng Yulai's face was one she had never seen before.
After enjoying Leng Yulai's face wash for three minutes, Su Mo patted Leng Yulai's shapely buttocks, and Leng Yulai reluctantly let go of Su Mo.
"My lord, here, this is Ling Zichen's finger!"
With a fawning expression, Leng Yulai held her severed finger in her palm and handed it to Su Mo.
Hearing Leng Yulai address Su Mo as "Lord," the woman's heart skipped a beat.
It should be noted that Leng Yulai is one of the four Dark Kings of their Holy Spirit Cult, and her strength and status in the Holy Spirit Cult are second only to the two Emperors of the Underworld and the unseen leader.
But now she was addressing the demon before her with utmost respect as "Lord," and a sense of foreboding immediately welled up in the woman's heart.
Although she had never met the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, she was certain that the Su Mo before her was not the elusive leader of the Holy Spirit Cult.
"Thanks a lot!"
After giving Leng Yulai a verbal reward, Su Mo took the severed finger that Leng Yulai handed him and took out a scroll he had prepared in advance from his pocket.
Su Mo laid the scroll flat on the ground, picked up Ling Zichen's severed finger, and pressed it hard on the scroll with the cut side facing down. A bright red bloodstain fell on the scroll covered with mysterious spells.
Su Mo turned to look at the woman lying on the ground and said with a smile, "It's time for you to play your role."
Upon hearing Su Mo's words, a look of terror appeared on the woman's face. She began to twist her body frantically, making muffled noises through her gagged mouth, trying to attract Leng Yulai's attention.
However, Leng Yulai's eyes were completely fixed on Su Mo at that moment, and she paid no attention to the commotion she was causing.
Looking at the woman writhing on the ground like a maggot, Su Mo felt no emotion whatsoever.
The woman's name was Su Li. She was frustrated because she could not break through her cultivation level. After killing her adoptive parents and their entire family, she joined the Holy Spirit Cult.
The reason she was here was because Su Mo had recently decided to research the secrets of martial spirits.
He asked Leng Yulai to find a guinea pig from the Holy Spirit Cult, and Su Li was unlucky enough to be chosen by Leng Yulai and become Su Mo's guinea pig.
"Don't worry, it will be quick."
After offering Su Li a few words of comfort, Su Mo raised his right hand high and slammed it down on the spot in the middle of the scroll where Ling Zichen's bloodstains were imprinted.
"Impure World Reincarnation!!!"
The moment Su Mo's palm landed on the scroll, countless black array patterns spread out from the scroll, forming a huge encirclement that enveloped Su Li.
Before Su Li could react, a blinding white light shot out from the center of the magic circle.
Immediately afterwards, countless blank pieces of paper flew out, making a "whooshing" sound, and densely packed towards Su Li's body.
In the blink of an eye, Su Li's entire body was covered with white paper pieces.
Accompanied by a painful wail, Ling Zichen, who had already died, reappeared in the world in a defiled form.
"Where is this place?"
"Didn't I detonate the mech's source and perish together with the enemy?"
Having regained his self-awareness, Ling Zichen looked at the unfamiliar surroundings with a puzzled expression.
She knew exactly how she died, and she even remembered the pain of the intense heat from the explosion burning her skin.
So she was certain that she was dead, but she didn't know who had brought her back to life.
"Hey! How does it feel to die with a big butt?"
Seeing Ling Zichen's bewildered expression, Su Mo took the initiative to raise her hand and greet him.
Upon hearing someone call him "big butt," Ling Zichen's temper flared up instantly. Regardless of his current situation, he rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach the other person a lesson.
But when Ling Zichen saw Su Mo, he was completely stunned. "How come it's you, you brat?"
Looking at Su Mo, who was smiling and greeting him, Ling Zichen's face showed a hint of surprise.
"What brat? Is that how you address your savior?"
"A savior?"
A hint of suspicion flashed across Ling Zichen's face, and he asked uncertainly, "Did you really save me?"
