Chapter 79: A tragedy

The bottom of the lake, the cave, the habitat of the Azure Bull Python.

Xiao Jiu looked at the two dying spirit beasts and couldn't help but curse, "Da Ming, you refused to leave when I told you to, now you're satisfied? It doesn't matter if you seek your own death, why did you drag Er Ming into it!"

The azure bull python's nose was about to turn upside down, "Bastard, if you hadn't caused trouble all day, how could we have been besieged by the upper three clans! I want to smack you to death right now!"

"You guys are under siege because you're 100,000 year old spirit beasts, does it have anything to do with me having a copper spirit ring? Er Ming, say, who is to blame for this?" Xiao Jiu was not going to take the blame.

The titanic ape roared in discontent towards the azure bull python, "Little Brother Jiu is right, I said I wanted to transform, but you wouldn't let me, how could humans find us if we transformed? It's all your fault!

Transforming, Transforming again, you don't stop!

If it were in the past, he would have smacked the titanic ape and told him to stick to his beastly ways.

However, today he used silence, he was reflecting, reflecting on what Xiao Jiu had said.

Was it because Xiao Jiu had caused trouble and dragged them down with him, or were they spirit beasts that were meant to be hunted by humans!

With that, Da Ming let out a heavy sigh.

Perhaps it was only a matter of time before the humans came back without Xiao Jiu, for they were 100,000 year old spirit rings and spirit bones in the eyes of the humans!

Wasn't Wu's mother an example of this!

Having thought of all this, the Azure Bull Python sighed and said leisurely, "Erming, I'm going to die!"

[How is that possible? Our life force is so strong, I feel like I might still wake up after sleeping for 10,000 to 20,000 years!

The titan ape roared, swung his hand around Da Ming's neck, then licked the wound with his tongue and roared, "My saliva can heal your wounds!

Aww shucks! ~~~

I'll smear it evenly for you, it's absolutely effective!

"Bugger off!"

The azure bull python's bull nose spewed madly, "Get away from me! Are you trying to piss me off?"

The titanic ape was displeased and grinned, "Isn't that what happens to spirit beasts when they're injured? My saliva is not poisonous! Da Ming, you've changed!

Poison Douluo snorted with laughter, this titanic ape was simply too funny!

"Roar! ~~"

The titan ape glared viciously at Poison Douluo and said in broken human language, "What are you looking at?"

Poison Douluo: "....."

This spirit beast, really didn't learn a single good word!

"Ermin, shut up! Listen to me!"

The azure bull python was going to die of anger, can't you be more reliable? I was giving my last words, what a serious occasion, and you just ruined it!

"Alright, Er Ming, listen to what Da Ming has to say!"

Xiao Jiu spoke up, he saw that Da Ming didn't seem to be able to hold on much longer, Er Ming then sat down quietly, which made the azure bull python even more depressed, who is the big brother here!

"I'm really going to die! Sleeping is useless, because what hurt me is divine power, power from the gods! It's a power unique to the divine realm that can easily crush all the powers of this world, I can't remove this power, it will quickly erode my body! Grind everything out of me." Da Ming said with a sigh.

"Divine power, is it that terrifying?" Xiao Jiu was shocked, this was the first time he had come into contact with divine power, but he felt that he still underestimated it, just this one sword had caused the death of a powerful spirit beast.

"Gods, are beings of another level! Their power transcends this world, Xiao Jiu, you have to be careful in the future! The Martial Spirit Hall, is the spokesperson of the gods in the mortal world!"

"Xiao Jiu, protect Er Ming and Xiao Wu for me!"

With that, the Azure Bull Python used its remaining horn to forcefully slash at its body, and in front of the stunned gazes of the crowd, it directly pulled out a crystal clear green snake gall bladder!

"Erming, eat it! This is my life essence, your injuries will heal after a good night's sleep!"

The titanic ape roared, covering its mouth with its hand to death as a low beastly roar rang out: I won't! I won't eat it even if I die!

"Bastard! Don't you even listen to me anymore?"

"I am your brother!"

The azure bull python's eyes burst open, and his body wrapped around the titanic ape with force, using his tail to pry open the titanic ape's mouth and forcefully put his snake bile into the titanic ape's mouth.

At this moment, Poison Douluo was stunned.

He stood up and gave a deep salute towards the Azure Green Bull Python, where all goodness should stand in awe!

"Brother! ~~"

The titanic ape roared, finally shouting out a human language, its eyes leaving a line of tears.

Roar! ~~

The titan giant ape shook Xiao Jiu with its paws and gestured, Save him, Little Brother Xiu, save him!

The titan ape was so excited that it could not control its power and crushed Xiao Jiu's arm at once, but Xiao Jiu did not feel any pain at all.

His first friend in this world had died!

His heart was cold, very cold!

Xiao Jiu smiled and looked at the Azure Green Bull Python and said, "If you believe me, sacrifice to me! I will find a way to revive you!"

The Azure Bull Python calmly said, "Today, the fact that you can come and risk your life to save us means that I have not misjudged anyone! I'm counting on you from now on! I only have one request, Xiao Wu, Erming, let them live happily!"

"Erming wants to take on a form, so you let him do so!"

"Xiaomai, she wants to be a human, let her live a good life and respect her choice! Being a spirit beast is really dangerous in this world!"

The azure bull python rambled on, earnestly enjoining as ripple after ripple of energy rippled out from his body, attaching itself to Xiao Jiu's as his body gradually dissipated, all the flesh and blood energy turning into a shocking splash of blood red.

"Brother! ~~" the titanic ape smashed frantically against the cave, it felt Da Ming's life breath draining away frantically, but there was nothing it could do.

All he could do was pound the rocks furiously and vent his anguish!

But soon he collapsed to the ground with a bang, the majestic power contained in the Azure Bull Python's snake bile was reshaping his heart and forcing it into dormancy.

"Xiao Jiu, I am the king of this forest! I want to protect the spirit beasts from humans, but I have no choice, human spirit masters can only hunt spirit rings from spirit beasts, all I can do is to prevent humans from killing spirit beasts indiscriminately!"

"I hope that one day, you will stand at the top of this world and be able to give us spirit beasts, a clean slate!"

The azure bull python hissed with its last strength, the green light burning its body, sacrificing its spirit flesh and blood.

The sacrifice was not only a sacrifice of its own life, but also a sacrifice of its own spirit. In order to allow Xiao Jiu to successfully absorb all of its power without being constrained by the year of the spirit ring, the Azure Bull Python dedicated all of its spirit power to Xiao Jiu, integrating its spirit to the spirit ring.

At the same time, a spirit bone most compatible with Xiao Jiu's body appeared, the torso bone of the Azure Bull Python! There was no need to refine it, it was like being born with it.

"Da Ming! I promise you that the spirit beast will no longer be the prey of humans!" Xiao Jiu looked up to the sky and roared.

A drop of tears flowed down and was washed away by the lake.

Thinking of the first time, when he had tricked Da Ming and forced Jiu Douluo away.

Thinking of this mouthy fellow, reluctant, but still following himself to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!

Thinking of how it didn't ask questions, saw Tang Hao chasing after him and smoked him straight to death!

We are brothers!

Xiao Jiu clenched his fists, his eyes scarlet!

"Second Elder, Third Elder, Fourth Elder, there's a huge cave here!" Suddenly, an excited voice rang out.

"Very well, don't let the people of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect find out, let's go in first!"

With that, the six figures entered the cave.

The corners of Xiao Jiu's mouth curled into a cruel smile, how dare you guys chase after the bottom of the lake!

Not knowing how your death is written!

Xiao Jiu's martial spirit instantly turned on, four spirit rings hovered silently on his body, purple, black, black... Red!

Three Titled Douluo, three Spirit Douluo, sneakily entered the cave.

They hadn't even had the time to marshal all of them in order to snatch the dying Spirit beast, and they hadn't even dared to inform Tang Xiao, fearing that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would find out and want to split the spirit bones with them.

The six of them moved forward in the deep cave, and soon, they saw the situation ahead of them, and the Second Elder's pupils suddenly shrank.

The giant titan ape was lying on the ground, alive or dead, while in front of it stood a teenager they hadn't seen before, looking at them with a seeming smile.

To their horror, this teenager's spirit ring, purple, black, black... Red!

"You're Tang Jiu! That little bastard!"

The Third Elder raised his eyebrows, now that Little Jiu had contacted the state of the martial spirit fusion technique, his appearance was very different from when he had raided them before.

But this spirit ring was instantly recognisable to the people of the Clear Sky Clan!

"Tang Jiu? No, my surname stopped being Tang long ago! Now my surname is Xiao." Xiao Jiu grunted, an endless killing intent dense in his eyes.

"Bastard who deceives his clan and killed his ancestors!"

The Third Elder rebuked angrily, his 9 spirit rings moving in violent rhythm with his anger.

"You actually killed the spirit beast and fused the spirit ring and spirit bone, how is that possible? How could you absorb a hundred thousand year old spirit ring?"

"Could it be... Sacrifice!"

The Second Elder sucked in a breath of cold air as he glanced around and found no sign of the Azure Bull Python.

The knowledgeable man immediately understood the situation, back then, Tang Hao's wife, didn't that Blue Silver Emperor use this method to give Tang Hao a spirit ring of 100,000 years?

"Sinful beast, Tang Hao is as kind to you like a mountain, the Clear Sky Clan is your clan, and you went so far as to brutally kill the clan's Fifth Elder, Seventh Elder, and even killed your own adoptive father, you are simply worse than a pig!"

The third elder's eyes were round as he cursed.

Xiao Jiu laughed and pointed at the people of the Clear Sky Clan, "What a bunch of old dogs who bully the soft and fear the hard! Even though the Martial Spirit Hall is pushing you guys so hard, you don't even pull out your swords in anger, and you're still wagging your tails at others. You're all blind! How dare you mention Tang Hao to me, he was the one who chased me here before he was smacked to death by the Azure Bull Python!"

"You! ~~ Sinful beast!"

The Third Elder's face turned blue with anger, and he blasted over with his Clear Sky Hammer.

"In the water, you guys dare to fight me, what a bunch of brainless fools!"

Xiao Jiu snorted coldly as the green light on his body shone brightly, unleashing one of the Spirit bone techniques given to him by the Azure Bull Python, Water Overlord!

The Azure Bull Python was a water beast and had an unparalleled affinity for water. Once the Water Overlord was activated, instead of lowering his strength in the water, Xiao Jiu would increase his physical qualities by 10%, as well as his combat ability in the water.

Xiao Jiu's body was like a swimming fish, rushing towards the Third Elder at a speed faster than that on the shore, and blasting his fist at the Clear Sky Hammer.

Swoosh! ~~

The Third Elder was sent flying backwards by the punch.

"Old man, this is the Clear Sky Clan, weak as a chicken!" Xiao Jiu laughed loudly.

"How is that possible!"

The Third Elder had an incredulous look on his face, fighting for strength, and he had lost!

The Second Elder's gaze was gloomy as he spoke, "In the water, the strength of our land spirit masters all drop by 10%, while it seems that he has obtained the spirit bone technique of the Azure Bull Python, so it is possible that his strength will increase in the water."

"Moreover, he has an estimated 4 to 5 spirit bones on him, one of which is still 100,000 years old!"

"In terms of spirit rings, he has seven spirit rings, five of which are over 10,000 years old, and one is even 100,000 years old, the years of spirit rings already add up to be comparable to a weaker Titled Douluo!"

"Therefore, in the water, his physical quality is enough to match that of a Titled Douluo!"

The Second Elder's words caused the hearts of everyone from the Clear Sky Clan to sink.

On the other hand, the corners of Xiao Jiu's mouth hooked, you guys still forgot to count my domain, the ice domain in the water strength, the power can also be increased by leaps and bounds!

"Then we can't keep him, let's all go together and kill him!"

The Third Elder shouted explosively, and the spirit ring on his body flashed, unleashing his true martial spirit.

"Seventh Spirit skill, Martial Spirit True Body!"

The other five followed closely behind, all of them unlocking their Martial Spirit True Bodies.

"Shameless, how dare you, the Clear Sky Clan, fight fewer with more!"

Poison Douluo Bo's face was filled with anger, and the turquoise scaled snake emperor behind him appeared, opening his true body of martial spirit.

"Eighth Spirit skill, Medusa's Gaze!"

This time, two greyish-white pillars of petrifying light shot right towards the Second and Third Elders.

"I'll do it!"

With a cold cry, a Spirit Douluo blocked the petrifying light with his own body, and the two Spirit Douluos behind him immediately guarded the petrified person, making it impossible for Dugu Bo's move to build.

"Go to hell!"

The Fourth Elder shouted in anger, and the Clear Sky Hammer was hammered towards the Bi-scaled Snake Emperor, and Dugu Bo was directly hammered against the cave wall by the terrifying force.

"Young Lord, we will hold back a Titled Douluo even if we fight to the death!"

The Dragon Lord and Snake Woman's face was quite unsightly, Dugu Bo belonged to the control system spirit masters, and his greatest fear was to be close by a strong attacking spirit master, and his control skills, and being blocked hard by the Spirit Douluo with his body, was too much of a disadvantage.

"Ow! ~~~"

A clear dragon roar rang out as the Dragon Lord and Snake Woman's Martial Spirit fusion Technique Evil Jiao appeared, lunging towards the Second Elder with open teeth and claws.

"Carved insects and small skills!"

The elder coldly snorted, after Tang Hao's spirit bones were returned, he first gave two to Tang Xiao, allowing him to make up six spirit bones, while the rest was one for each of the four elders, but he had four spirit bones on him, and his cultivation level was even 94.

He had four spirit bones on him and his cultivation level was even 94. He would not put this martial spirit fusion technique in his eyes, and with a single blast from the Clear Sky Hammer, he smashed the evil jiao and made it howl in misery.

After all, Poison Douluo only had two spirit bones, and his spirit power was two or three levels different from these people from the Clear Sky Clan.

One should know that at the rank of Titled Douluo, a difference of one level in spirit power was a world of difference in strength, not to mention the difference in spirit bones.

Boom boom boom! ~~~

Under the vicious battle, Poison Douluo was badly injured, but he still gritted his teeth and held on, wading with his opponent to hold back one person for Xiao Jiu, who was facing more people at the moment!

One Titled Douluo and three Spirit Douluos!

"I'll see who can still help you this time!"

The Third Elder snorted coldly and blasted over with the Clear Sky Hammer.

"Stupid bastard! I'll show you what true terror is!"

As soon as Xiao Jiu raised his hand, his Spirit ring Martial Spirit was placed on the Third Elder, and at that moment, the Third Elder felt his body deflate.

The huge Clear Sky Hammer in his hand unexpectedly withdrew from its true martial spirit ate, while his seventh spirit ring disappeared! His spirit power was suppressed by one level, and his body quality dropped wildly.

"How is that possible? Didn't they say that you could only restrict the sixth spirit ring?" The Third Elder's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Xiao Jiu's eyes glowed red with endless hatred, "It's not because of you guys, forcing the Azure Bull Python to die, the spirit ring spirit bone it sacrificed to me has given my body a qualitative leap, I can now completely withstand 50,000 years of spirit rings, so anyone's seventh spirit skill will be restricted to death by me!"

"Go to hell! Let's show you just how much power the Azure Bull Python has given me!"

"Ice Water Domain!"

Xiao Jiu raised his hand and pointed, and the water around his body rapidly condensed, turning a twenty meter radius into an ocean of ice!

A thick chain of ice burst out towards the Third Elder!

Xiao Jiu's Domain of Ice, fused with the Azure Bull Python's understanding and power of water, had finally fused water and ice, allowing Xiao Jiu's Domain to evolve to another level.

The most intuitive change is this.

The coverage of the domain went up from ten metres, to twenty metres.

Because water's shaping ability is very strong, after combining the abilities of water and ice, Xiao Jiu has finally fully mastered the shaping ability of ice.

The thick ice locks that burst out of the domain are the attacking ability that uses ice to shape.
