Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

--- Chapter 229 ---

Di Tian drew out powerful spirit energy and glanced at the dark devilgod tiger with a cold gaze.

"Dragon-." He was about to launch a powerful claw attack, but Yunlong suddenly grasped his shoulders.

"What are you doing?" Di Tian frowned slightly.

Yunlong slowly walked toward the dark devilgod tiger and casually answered, "Let me do it."

"With your current strength? This vicious tiger is already in its third cycle." Di Tian commented solemnly. "You wouldn't be able to kill it."

"Don't worry. I'll count it as training." Yunlong slowly smirked because he was a shadow clone, which only had half of the original power.

He also couldn't use his spirit skills, which restricted him to another level because with the clone's body, something like heavy damage could make him pop out of existence.

Well, he only had not to get hit and killed the dark devilgod tiger with a precise yet absolute attack.

Yunlong calmly drew out a wooden sword from his inventory and pointed it toward the dark devilgod tiger.

"Well, Kitty... Let's see how much you can dance." He declared, which was obviously for provoking the beast.

ROAR!

"How Dare You!" The beast angrily roared because a mere human was brave enough to call him like that.

Di Tian couldn't help but look at Yunlong with a keen gaze. He wondered how endless this brat's confidence was because he's nothing but a spirit saint.

Dark Devilgod Tiger released a piercing roar, and a greyish field suddenly formed around them. A few spheres filled with wind and lightning energy swiftly emerged.

"DIE!"

The energy spheres flew toward Yunlong and instantly burst out into blinding dusky light.

"Susanoo." Yunlong's eyes become eternal mangekyou sharingan, which causes a dark skeleton frame to cover him.

BOOM!

Cracks!

"Oh?" Yunlong slowly noticed a few small cracks appeared on Susanoo.

BOOM!

The Dark Devilgod Tiger quickly charged him out of the cave, pushing his Susanoo through mountain rocks.

Without further ado, Yunlong's Susanoo grabbed the dark devilgod tiger's neck and stopped the charge.

BAM!

"That is not enough, kitty." He commented while slamming the beast onto the ground.

"Human..."

"How could a human put me down onto the ground?"

"I Won't Accept This."

"I Will Kill You."

"I'll Devour You."

The Dark Devilgod Tiger released a powerful energy burst from his body and escaped Yunlong's grasp, flying to the skies.

Yunlong stared at the winged tiger with an amused expression because this spirit beast had too many advantages.

'Unfortunately, this cat fought him.' He thought while creating a dark energy sword.

"Human, Accept my wrath."

Yunlong naturally jumped with his Susanoo and charged the beast. They attacked each other furiously, causing a storm to sweep over the area.

Clank!

Yunlong's energy sword clashed with the dark devilgod tiger's claw and released a loud shockwave.

"What's that weird avatar?" Di Tian slowly walked out of the destroyed cave. "I've never seen something like that before."

"It's a rare ability," Kaguya answered while standing beside him. "Only a few people have awakened it, but in Yunlong's case, it was different."

"You know about it?" Di Tian questioned with a solemn expression.

Kaguya nodded and silently replied, "I have seen some in the past..."

ROAR! BAM!

Yunlong heavily struck the tiger onto the rocky mountain and plunged the energy sword into its stomach.

But, before he could even do significant damage, the space around them abruptly was warped.

"I couldn't use spatial manipulation to force it, but..." Yunlong's eyes suddenly shone with a goldish gleam.

"This..." The Dark Devilgod Tiger's eyes quickly widened in surprise because this human just used time law.

"Stagnation." Yunlong released his Susanoo and pressed his leg against the tiger's forehead.

"Slow Motion."

"Freeze."

"Distortion."

Dark Devilgod Tiger sensed his entire body was covered in weird energy and felt completely torn apart. He couldn't even move fast because lifting a single thumb took a few seconds.

"Curse you, Human."

"I won't bow down to this puny law."

"I still have my blood!"

Dark Devilgod Tiger's body swelled and abruptly became excessively bigger than his former form. He reached 40 meters in height, and his eyes flared with dreadful red eyes.

Yunlong couldn't help but blink his eyes in surprise and look at the tiger that released a dark aura, covering the entire area with corrupt energy.

"Hehehe..." Dark Devilgod Tiger released a cold laugh. "With this, your fate has been sealed."

"Slow Motion 10x." Yunlong's voice echoed while standing in front of the giant cat.

"Your puny law won't work on me." Dark Devilgod Tiger attacked Yunlong with his sharp claws.

Clank! BAM!

Yunlong instinctively raised his wooden sword and hardened it with material reinforcement, but he quickly was still sent flying a hundred meters away.

Cracks!

The reinforced wooden sword slowly crumbled into dust because of corroding evil energy, which caused Yunlong to frown for a moment.

"Amaterasu would definitely work..." Yunlong quietly muttered while moving his gaze to the beast, who was charging toward him. "But I need another one-hit skill."

Yunlong always had an idea in his head, but sometimes his own task wavered.

He was busy with his training with Jin Eyu in the past and couldn't really develop much except for the cultivation and improving skills he possessed.

However, after briefly traversing into another world and fighting a literal god, Yunlong committed to creating an absolute kill skill. An ultimate skill where he poured almost everything and guaranteed his victory.

"I couldn't use my spirit skills." Yunlong swiftly kicked the air to dodge the dark devilgod tiger's attack. "Nevertheless, it should be enough to kill this cat."

Yunlong spontaneously created a black orb filled with an enormous amount of spirit energy. He poured almost everything single elemental forces he possessed into this, even his spiritual power.

They quickly merged with infused Time Law, which fastened the process of rapid chain reaction. The orb slowly became longer and turned into a dusky barbed spear.

"This, in theory, should work..." Yunlong firmly clenched the spear with his hand and threw it to the sky.

The dusky spear quickly reached the atmosphere, and Yunlong cast his time law upon it.

"Stagnant 100x."

"Fast Motion 100X."

The spear seemed to float calmly in the sky because of stagnation. Yet, if someone looks closely, it actually vibrates violently because fast motion causes it to move even in a stagnant situation.

It quickly gained unbearable momentum because the spear literally fell one hundred times faster than it should have been. The gravity around it became heavier and heavier, and frequently static electricity appeared.

Yunlong moved his gaze back to the dark devilgod tiger who slammed the ground in front of him. He carefully dodged every incoming fatal attack and guided this beast away from this forest.

They moved quickly toward the south where the ocean was because Yunlong needed a place with an excellent shock absorbent.

If they kept fighting in the star dou forest, a good portion of the land probably would be destroyed upon contact.

"Why are you running, human?!"

"Why are you running!"

"Are you afraid?"

Yunlong ignored the beast's provocation because it would die in a few minutes anyway. They rushed out of the star dou forest and arrived at the south coast.

They faced each other on a rocky cliff, which was so high above the deep blue ocean.

Yunlong stood on the cliff and looked at the dark devilgod tiger with a calm expression. "Hmm, you are sure energetic for a cat." He casually commented, which caused the beast to stare coldly at him.

"You can run any more human, and even if you fly to the sky, I'll chase you." The Dark Devilgod Tiger indifferently declared.

"Is that so?" Yunlong smirked slightly. "Then, I won't move from this position, so let's see how you can kill me."

ROAR!

"Don't Underestimate Me!"

Dark Devilgod Tiger's body released intense dark energy, and his scorpion tail flicked with purple light.

Yunlong's eternal mangekyou sharingan keenly looked at the tail and saw it moved quickly toward his chest, which he easily dodged.

However, the scorpion tail attack was faint because the dark devilgod tiger charged toward him with an energy ray burst out from its mouth.

Yunlong purposely didn't dodge and waited until the beast was slightly closer to him.

He surprisingly walked a few steps and activated his Susanoo, which cut the dark devilgod tiger's wing with an energy sword.

ROAR!

"Y-You move..." Dark Devilgod Tiger charged at thin air and fell from the cliff with a speechless expression.

"What did you expect?" Yunlong coldly chuckled. "That was obviously a lie."

"Curse you, HUMAN!!!"

The dark devilgod tiger fell to the ocean and couldn't fly away because Yunlong severed his wings.

"He's clearly won't die just from falling damage," Yunlong commented while sitting on the cliff. "That's why I brought this..."

Di Tian and Kaguya approached from afar and noticed black light pierced through the cloud, leaving a fiery trail in the sky.

"What?!" Di Tian suddenly shuddered for some reason. "What's that thing? I've never felt so threatened before."

"CURSE YOU HUMAN!"

"EVIL GOD WILL CURSE YOUR BODY AND SOUL."

"HAHAHA, I WILL WAIT AND LAUGH AT YOUR SUFFERING."

"Quiet... Don't you hear it?" Yunlong asked while looking at the incoming black light.

"Hear what? You couldn't do anything to me. I'll recover in a matter of a second." Dark Devilgod Tiger laughed while floating on the sea.

"You can't hear it, huh?" Yunlong sighed while staring at the beast.

"Your Death..."

The black light abruptly fell through the space and brought an unbearable momentum, which destroyed even the area around it.

"Accept It... Heaven Judgment."

"What-." Dark Devilgod Tiger raised his gaze and felt a light feather struck his forehead.

BOOOOOOOM!

The beast instantly disappeared from Yunlong's vision and literally was dragged down into the deep ocean. The entire sea violently was shaken because of the force behind the spear.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

A few kilometers of ocean abruptly was cleared from seawater, which actually evaporated, leaving simply a dry land.

Yunlong saw a wide hole he created and shook his head because if he landed that spear on the land, half of the star dou forest would disappear literally from the Douluo Continent.

Not to mention the additional earthquake that probably would happen after the contact.

"That spear force is at least ten times the amount of force I used against Asura God, but it probably still is not enough," Yunlong commented while hearing a system notification.
