Doupo: Marry a Young Doctor and Be Rewarded with Douhuang Cultivation

163: The Dou Sheng energy body from the Soul Clan!The energy bodies on the third level were far more powerful than those on the previous two levels; Eight-Star Dou Zun-level existences were ubiquitous, and occasionally, Nine-Star Dou Zun-level energy bodies would be encountered.

But in front of Xiao Ze’s Heavenly Flame, these energy bodies were simply no match.

He didn’t even need to use his Dou Sheng power; he could easily incinerate the energy bodies with just his Heavenly Flame, and the high-tier energy cores collected along the way almost filled Xun’er’s Storage Ring.

Even so, Xiao Ze remained vigilant.

When they delved into the depths of the third level, a group of over ten Eight-Star energy bodies once tried to ambush them. Gu Hua was about to make a move when Xiao Ze’s figure flickered, appearing amidst the energy bodies.

He gently clenched his palm, and terrifying Qi condensed into an invisible cage, trapping all the energy bodies. Then, with a slight movement of his fingertip, the cage rapidly contracted, and the energy bodies instantly vanished, leaving only a pile of energy cores on the ground.

Gu Hua looked at his still-sheathed weapon and awkwardly withdrew his hand.

In front of Xiao Ze, they didn’t even get a chance to act.

This feeling of being protected was truly wonderful.

”The energy fluctuations ahead are denser.”

On this day, Xiao Ze stopped, his Emperor Realm Soul Power sweeping forward, instantly taking in the situation within a ten-mile radius.

”To the northwest, there are four energy bodies: three Eight-Star and one Nine-Star. To the south and west, there’s a Saint-Grade pressure, and many energy bodies are active around.”

Gu Zhen, Great Commander and Gu Hua had just returned from scouting, their expressions grave. ”The Saint-Grade pressure to the west is extremely strong, guarded by at least twenty Nine-Star energy bodies. If we alarm them, we will definitely be surrounded.”

Everyone fell silent for a moment. Gu Qingyang said, ”We can only go northwest. There are the fewest energy bodies there, and with Brother Xiao Ze, we should be able to finish the fight quickly.”

Xiao Ze, however, shook his head, his gaze fixed on the west. ”No need to go around; we’ll go straight west.”

Before his words faded, he had already shot forward, his Six-Star Dou Sheng aura no longer restrained, sweeping out like a tsunami.

The energy bodies ahead felt this pressure and instantly fell into chaos. Many Nine-Star energy bodies even began to tremble, finding it difficult to move.

Xiao Ze’s figure moved through the energy bodies as if teleporting; with every wave of his palm, an energy body was annihilated.

Wherever his Qi passed, energy bodies were harvested like stalks of wheat. Even the Saint-Grade energy bodies hadn’t reacted before all the surrounding guardian energy bodies had dissipated.

”Roar!” The Saint-Grade energy body finally regained its senses, letting out an angry roar. Its surrounding energy surged wildly, transforming into a giant energy axe that cleaved down towards Xiao Ze.

Xiao Ze didn’t even dodge. He condensed a wisp of Qi on his fingertip and lightly pointed. The giant energy axe instantly shattered, and the Qi flowed into the Saint-Grade energy body.

With a ’bang’, the Saint-Grade energy body exploded, and a Saint-Grade energy core radiating rich energy slowly floated into Xiao Ze’s hand.

The entire process took only a few breaths. Gu Qingyang and the other three hadn’t even clearly seen Xiao Ze’s movements before the battle was over.

The power of a Six-Star Dou Sheng was evident.

”Let’s go.” Xiao Ze put away the energy core and continued to speed deeper.

After another half an hour of travel, he suddenly stopped, a slight frown on his brow. ”There’s a stronger pressure ahead; it should be an energy body close to the Dou Sheng-level.”

Everyone followed his gaze and saw a hundred-zhang-tall colossal stone peak not far ahead. On a stone seat at the summit, a figure in black armor sat proudly, with a dark red Ghost Head Sword (Ghost Head Broadsword) laid horizontally in front of him. A bloody aura, as if substantial, coiled around him, even distorting the surrounding space.

”This aura... it’s much stronger than the previous Saint-Grade!”

Gu Hua couldn’t help but gasp, tightening his grip on his weapon.

The black-armored figure seemed to sense their presence and slowly opened its eyes. Its hollow gaze locked onto Xiao Ze and his group, and the bloody aura suddenly surged, causing even Gu Qingyang to feel a suffocating sensation.

”Close to the Dou Sheng-level, finally something interesting.”

A trace of Battle Intent flashed in Xiao Ze’s eyes. His Six-Star Dou Sheng aura fully erupted, golden light enveloping him, instantly suppressing the bloody aura.

He turned to Gu Qingyang and the other three. ”You wait here. I’ll be back shortly.”

Before his words fell, his figure had vanished from its spot. When he reappeared, he was already standing at the peak of the mountain, confronting the black-armored figure.

The black-armored figure roared, and the Ghost Head Broadsword in its hand, carrying a wind that tore through space, cleaved towards Xiao Ze.

Xiao Ze, however, didn’t dodge. He condensed Qi in his right fist and punched towards the broadsword.

”Clang—”

The metallic clang shook the entire mountain peak. The black-armored figure was forced back three steps, and a crack appeared on the Ghost Head Broadsword in its hand.

A hint of shock flashed in its eyes; it clearly hadn’t expected the person before it to possess such terrifying power.

Just as it was about to strike again, Xiao Ze’s figure flickered, appearing behind it like a ghost. He pressed his palm against its back, and his Six-Star Dou Sheng Qi surged in without reservation.

The black-armored figure trembled violently, its black armor shattering inch by inch, then it exploded with a ’bang’. An energy core, several times larger than a Saint-Grade energy core, slowly emerged in the air, its circulating energy enough to drive any Dou Zun mad.

Xiao Ze raised his hand, collecting the energy core into his Storage Ring, then turned and sped towards Gu Qingyang and the other three, his face devoid of any emotion, as if he had merely done something insignificant.

To him, an energy body close to the Dou Sheng-level was nothing more than a slightly stronger ant.

The strength of a Six-Star Dou Sheng had long surpassed most existences on the third level of the Heavenly Tomb.

After dealing with the Blood Blade Saint, Xiao Ze and the others continued deeper into the Heavenly Tomb. The aura of the energy bodies along the way grew increasingly formidable, and the few pressures occasionally sensed were even sharper than that of the previous black-armored energy body.

But without exception, all were dealt with by Xiao Ze.

Dou Sheng-level energy bodies were a great tonic for him, something he eagerly sought.

”At this rate, in another half an hour, we should reach Ancestor Xiao Xuan’s tomb.”

Xun’er looked at the increasingly dense ancient aura ahead and whispered to Xiao Ze.

Gu Qingyang and the others also breathed a sigh of relief. After overcoming numerous dangers, they were finally nearing their destination, and even their steps became lighter.

But just then, Xiao Ze’s steps suddenly halted, his brows slightly furrowed.

In his perception, two extremely cold energy fluctuations were approaching at a very high speed, carrying undisguised killing intent.

”Someone’s coming.”

No sooner had Xiao Ze’s words fallen than two grey-clad figures appeared like ghosts on a giant rock ahead. Faint black energy coiled around them, and their eyes were filled with indifference, yet they were fixed on Xiao Ze and his group.

Gu Qingyang and the others’ expressions changed dramatically; the pressure emanating from these two figures had actually reached the Dou Sheng-level!

”It’s the Hun Clan’s Dou Sheng energy bodies!”

Gu Zhen, Great Commander gritted his teeth. ”They must have come looking after sensing that Hun Ya and Hun Li’s auras disappeared!”

Xiao Ze had previously killed Hun Ya and others on the second level, and it was likely at that time that the Hun Clan’s energy bodies detected an anomaly, leading them to seek him out.

However, it was clear that these two energy bodies did not know Xiao Ze’s strength; otherwise, they wouldn’t be so audacious.

Did two One-Star Dou Shengs really think they were a match for Xiao Ze?
