Chapter 137 Revenge
Sharp and piercing sounds like ghosts howling and wolves howling came from the mouths of the souls surrounding the Eagle Guardian.
Under the burning of flames, those thin soul bodies could not hold on for long. Often, a soul body would be burned to ashes by the flames in just three to five breaths.
Upon seeing this, Eagle Protector was so heartbroken that he almost cried. This was his accumulation of nearly a year, and he was going to bring it back to the Soul Palace to report, but now it was all gone.
He roared loudly with resentment:
"If you destroy the soul I captured, I will take your soul!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he opened his mouth and sucked violently. One soul after another was sucked into his mouth and he swallowed it directly without chewing.
After digesting it in a cruel way, the aura on his body unexpectedly surged. Every time he devoured hundreds or thousands of souls, his strength would surge by one star level.
Before being burned clean by the flames, at least five thousand souls were devoured by this Eagle Guardian, and his aura was elevated to a level comparable to that of a Nine-Star Dou Zong.
However, every advantage has its disadvantages. For example, if you devour a small amount of these unrefined souls, it won't be a big deal. But if you devour a large amount, then their memories and emotions will greatly affect you, causing you to fall into a state of violence and confusion.
"Roar!"
The Eagle Guardian now has changed a lot. His body is ten feet tall, his eyes are bloodshot like a demon, and his whole body is filled with yin energy, as if he came from Asura Hell.
He has lost most of his will, and the only thing he wants to do now is to tear Xu Haoyu's body apart with his own hands.
In order to achieve this goal, he must first break free from the fire formation that trapped him. There was a layer of Yin energy surrounding his body, which condensed into a protective shield to help him resist the burning of flames, but it was also being consumed rapidly.
He rushed towards a fire spirit with his fangs and claws bared, facing a pillar of flames, and even wanted to tear the fire spirit apart, roaring and roaring loudly.
Xu Haoyu was not surprised but happy when he saw this:
"Haha, just when I thought your level was not high enough, you upgraded yourself to the Nine-Star Dou Zong level. With your soul, Xia Renfan's body, and the magic core of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, you will definitely be able to refine a top-grade Heavenly Demon Puppet."
Then, he used all his strength to practice his skills. The quasi-heavenly level skills were running at full power. All of a sudden, the energy of heaven and earth within a radius of dozens of miles was pried open, rushing towards Xu Haoyu's position, and condensed into a vortex above his head. A beam of energy light spurted out from the center of the vortex, and all of it was infused into Xu Haoyu's body.
This vast and mottled energy of heaven and earth is just a piece of cake for the quasi-heavenly level exercises and can be easily absorbed and refined.
The quickly recovered fighting spirit was infused into the flame formation by Xu Haoyu in the next moment, making the five flame spirits grow larger and larger. The flame beams spewing from their mouths became more and more ferocious, demonstrating the power of burning the sky and boiling the sea.
The combination of quasi-heavenly-level martial arts and heavenly-level fighting skills is an unparalleled force.
"Roar!"
No matter how the Eagle Protector screamed, he could not break out of the fire formation. Instead, under the burning of the flames, the yin energy around him became thinner and thinner, until it finally shattered.
Endless flames burned directly on his body. The Eagle Protector howled in pain. His huge body, which was ten feet tall, began to shrink like a deflated ball.
Finally, it returned to its original size. At this time, the seal in Xu Haoyu's hand changed.
"The power of the five spirits, seal!"
The five fire spirits also began to shrink, and finally exploded one after another, forming thousands and thousands of flame threads, and forming a net that trapped the soul of the Eagle Guardian.
Xu Haoyu stretched out his hand, grabbed the flaming ball, took out a jade bottle, temporarily stored it in it, and then put it back into his ring.
"Very good, a soul of the nine-star Dou Zong level, although it was only temporarily promoted, but its power is indeed real. Once I wipe out his consciousness, it will be the best material for refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet." At this time, Yao Tianhuo also rushed back with Xia Renfan's body. It was easy for a genuine Dou Zun to beat a half-step Dou Zun who failed to break through.
It can be seen that Xia Renfan's body is well preserved and full of energy. This is the situation that would only occur if he was killed cleanly and efficiently.
Yao Tianhuo threw the corpse over:
"Haha, my friend, this is for you. Although this guy has the strength of a half-step Dou Zun, it is not difficult for me to deal with him."
Xu Haoyu collected the corpse. He was in a good mood. Now that the magic core, soul and corpse were all gathered together, a Heavenly Demon Puppet was already waving at him.
He smiled and said:
"Thank you so much, Senior."
On the other side, Xu Tianlong also rushed here with Xia Muqian who was beaten to death. He was a little cruel, and Xia Muqian died in a very miserable way.
Then, Xu Tianlong expressed his gratitude to Yao Tianhuo:
"This time, thanks to the senior's help, otherwise with Xia Renfan's strength, our Xu family would be in great danger."
Yao Tianhuo did not put on airs, waved his hand, and said with a smile:
"No need to thank me. I should be the one to thank you. If it weren't for you, I would still be lying in the dark magma, not to mention being alive and having a body again. I promised you that I would protect your Xu family for ten years. After that, I might travel around the continent to look for past memories and traces."
Xu Tianlong was overjoyed. Even if it only took ten years, now their Xu family would no longer have to fear any foreign enemies.
Then, Xu Tianlong threw Xia Muqian's body to Xu Haoyu and said doubtfully:
"Haoyu, why are you collecting these Dou Zong corpses?"
Xu Haoyu had one more collection, and he was very happy. In the future, he would get other souls and magic cores, and be able to refine a Heavenly Demon Puppet. He said frankly:
"I have obtained a puppet method. I can use these corpses to refine puppets with corresponding strength and have fearless guards."
Xu Tianlong took a deep breath. He found that his grandson, after returning from studying away from home, was a little confused for him. Whether it was fighting spirit or alchemy, or even some strange collections, they were all so shocking.
Then, the three of them returned to the ground. The battle in the sky came to an end, and the war on the ground was also decided.
An army of tens of millions collapsed in a moment, especially the Dou Wang and Dou Huang warriors among them. They were probably afraid of being liquidated, so they ran faster than rabbits.
Back to the city!
Yao Tianhuo, Xu Tianlong, and Xu Haoyu were all warmly welcomed after a brief exchange.
Xu Tianlong ordered in a cold voice:
"You are not allowed to fight back even if you haven't been beaten. Since the Xia royal family started this war, let's let it continue."
"Patriarch, make arrangements immediately, mobilize troops, and launch a counterattack immediately to completely wipe out the Xia family and their roots, leaving no one alive, and seize all of the territory of the Tianxin Empire. From now on, this empire can have a new master."
Xu Yaozu was also extremely annoyed. He was very supportive of the Great Elder's choice:
"No problem, Great Elder, I'll make the arrangements right away. We must take revenge this time!"
