Chapter 36: Battle against the Soul Saint of the Xingluo Empire
After repelling Dai Yutian, Di Hong did not make any more moves. Behind him was Xue Ye, and the opponent's Soul Saint had already arrived. The level of that Soul Saint was 79, which was close to Soul Douluo.

Even more powerful than the Soul Saint who protected Xue Ye.

Now the situation that had been stabilized has turned towards the Xingluo Empire.

"Brother, take His Royal Highness the Crown Prince away."

Di Hong knew that this war could not be fought any longer and Xue Ye had to leave. If something happened to him, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to the Tiandou Empire.

"Fourth brother, be careful!"

After saying that, Di Yang pulled Xue Ye away from here and retreated towards the military camp.

"You go kill him, I'll catch Xue Ye!"

Dai Yutian was still unwilling to let Xue Ye run away like this, so he ordered his Soul Saint to kill Di Hong, while he continued to chase Xue Ye.

Di Hong wanted to give chase but was stopped by the Xingluo Soul Saint.

"Young man, your opponent is me."

As he spoke, he released his martial soul, which was a flaming lion.

Seven spirit rings rose from under his feet.

Di Hong frowned slightly. It was the first time for him to fight against a Soul Sage-level soul master, and the opponent's strength was already close to that of a Soul Douluo.

Even so, he couldn't back down.

"In that case, please teach me, Senior."

After bowing, Di Hong spread his wings and flew into the air.

The Soul Saint of Xing Luo snorted and laughed.

"I thought I would be safe once I got into the air."

"It's a pity for such a genius like you, but it's an honor for you to die in my hands."

After saying this, his fifth soul ring lit up.

"Fifth Soul Skill: Lion's Roar!"

"Roar!"

With a lion's roar, rolling sound waves attacked Di Hong in the air.

Di Hong immediately released his first soul skill to defend himself. Zong Yan seized the opportunity, bent his legs slightly, and suddenly jumped in front of Di Hong. Then he gathered his soul power into his right fist and smashed it hard on the shield.

With just one strike, Di Hong's Lihuo Shield was broken.

Seeing this, Di Hong quickly stepped back and kept some distance.

The soul power gap of level thirteen is too big. He absolutely cannot fight head-on, otherwise he will be the one in trouble.

After Zong Yan landed, he immediately released another flame. This time, Di Hong did not dodge, but took the flame head-on.

"Looking for death." Just when Zong Yan thought that Di Hong was burned to death, the flames dissipated and Di Hong stood there intact.

"How can it be!"

Zong Yan was shocked. He was burned directly by his flames, and the other party did not resist at all, but was not hurt at all.

"I forgot to tell you, Senior, I am Fire-Free. Fire has no effect on me."

As he said this, he did not forget to give a thumbs up.

"You, a Soul Saint, can't do that either."

After saying that, he flapped his wings and flew away.

"asshole!"

Being mocked by a junior whose soul power level was thirteen levels lower than his, Zong Yan suddenly became furious, and then he chased after him.

While escaping, Di Hong always kept a safe distance from him, and occasionally threw two fireballs to attack Zong Yan. Zong Yan also wanted to fight back, but his fire had no effect on Di Hong at all, and he could only rely on soul power to attack.

The continuous attacks took a huge toll on him.

"Martial spirit's true form!"

In anger, Zong Yan released his martial soul's true body, transforming into a huge lion with flames burning on its mane, tail and limbs.

"He's getting anxious." Di Hong looked back. The other party got anxious so easily. But it was also good. Releasing his martial soul's true body would consume more of his soul power.

If they confront head-on, he is no match for Zong Yan, so he can only slowly consume his opponent. When the time of the opponent's martial soul's true body is up, it is time for him to counterattack.

Zong Yan was naturally aware of this, so he had to kill Di Hong as soon as possible. Otherwise, once his spirit body ended and entered a weak period, he would not be a match for Di Hong. After all, he was not a Titled Douluo.

But Dihong can fly, which is very annoying.

"Third Soul Skill: Rage!"

After releasing his soul skill, Zong Yan's whole body glowed red, and even his eyes emitted a scarlet light. Both his speed and strength increased several times in an instant.

"Oh my god!" Di Hong was startled and quickly sped up.

However, while running away, he did not forget to turn around and release his second soul skill.

"Second soul skill: Fire Feather."

Countless flaming Suzaku feathers fell down, and although he dodged most of them, some still hit Zong Yan.

"Burn soul power."

Zong Yan stopped immediately, feeling the loss of his soul power. At this moment, the fire on his body was burning his soul power, which he found a little incredible.

He wanted to put out the flames, but no matter how hard he tried, they would not go out.

"Do you like this Vermillion Bird feather of mine, senior?" Di Hong teased. As long as he dragged it out slowly, the situation would be in his favor.

Zong Yan snorted coldly, and a red light flashed on his right leg.

"This is a soul bone." Di Hong was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zong Yan actually had another soul bone, and it looked quite old.

"Location tracking."

When the soul bone skill was released, a lion mark appeared on Di Hong's body.

"Locked skills?"

Realizing that something was wrong, Di Hong began to retreat and keep his distance.

"it's useless."

Zong Yan raised his hand and a black soul ring lit up on his body.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Fiery Lava."

The surrounding rubble began to gather towards Zong Yan's head, and soon formed a huge stone, which was then enveloped by blazing flames.

Zong Yan pointed toward the sky, and huge boulders of lava smashed towards Di Hong in the air.

"Here's the trick."

What annoyed Di Hong the most was being locked. The previous soul bone skill marked him, and then this huge piece of lava was used to hit him. If he was hit, he would be crippled if not killed.

"Third Soul Skill: Fire Falling from the Sky!"

A vortex of fire appeared above Zong Yan, and then countless fireballs fell from it.

Zong Yan immediately activated his soul power to resist, and seizing the opportunity, Di Hong activated his soul power and smashed the lava boulder that was hitting him with one punch.

At this moment, there was already a sea of ​​fire within a radius of dozens of meters around him. Zong Yan was in the center of the sea of ​​fire, and the surrounding Suzaku Lihuo continued to burn him.

His soul power was constantly being burned, and there was an unextinguishable fire all around him. From above, Di Hong kept throwing fireballs at him.

What Di Hong emphasizes is to give full play to one's own advantages.

"what!"

Unable to bear it any longer, Zong Yan let out a roar. It was the first time he felt so embarrassed, and the opponent was only a level 66 Soul Emperor.

"I must kill you!"

Di Hong shook his head: "Senior, it's time to end."

After saying that, he folded his wings and landed on the ground.

"Leaving the Fire Realm!"

A red light was emitted, and the domain instantly enveloped Zong Yan. At this moment, he was like being in a world of fire, and the speed at which his soul power burned accelerated.

"First Soul Skill: Flame Explosion!"

He threw a punch, but nothing happened.

"What's going on? Why did my soul skill become ineffective?" Zong Yan's pupils constricted in disbelief.

Di Hong walked forward slowly, explaining as he walked.

"In my Lihuo Domain, all fire attribute spirit skills are ineffective if the spirit power of Title Douluo does not exceed my level 20."

After he finished explaining, the black soul ring on his body lit up.

"Sixth Soul Skill: Fire Array!"

A huge Vermillion Bird magic circle lit up under Zong Yan's feet, and then a flame mark appeared on his forehead.

Feeling the fluctuation of soul power under his feet, Zong Yan was about to dodge when a pillar of fire gushed out from the magic circle and instantly enveloped him.

"Senior, goodbye."

As Di Hong clenched his right fist, Zong Yan, who was enveloped by the pillar of fire, turned into ashes with unwillingness and screaming in pain, leaving only a red light.
