Douluo: Peerless Righteous Douluo

It can be seen how cleanly the life force of the life demon is collected.

Xu Tianran said: "Juzi, collect Xue Lao's ashes and bury him with honor. What I just said must be passed on."

Orange responded obediently, stepped forward and respectfully collected the remaining powder from Old Xue, placing it in a separate soul guide.

Xu Tianran then looked at the Fate Demon and asked, "Is this enough?"

The life demon nodded repeatedly and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Although some vitality has dissipated from the wound, Elder Xue must have taken natural treasures containing vitality during his lifetime. There is still a lot of vitality in his body, which is enough."

Xu Tianran nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's start."

The life demon agreed, flipped his hands, and two balls of vitality appeared in his hands.

A ball of flawless green, just one look at it makes one feel refreshed all over, as if vitality is replenished, which naturally comes from Lin Yi.

The other group was faintly dark green in color. Only a soul master at the Titled Douluo level could tell that it was not the vitality that was dark green, but that there were a large number of undetectable impurities in the vitality that dyed it like this.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I extracted it too hastily just now because the amount of vitality was affected after Elder Xue's death. Later, I will use Ultimate Life to separate the impurities and ensure that I can use pure vitality to reshape Your Majesty's limbs."

Xu Tianran's frown finally relaxed.

"Holy Son, I, and the future of the sun and the moon, will be handed over to you. If you succeed this time, I will generously reward you, the national teacher, and the Holy Spirit Church."

After saying this, perhaps feeling that empty words were useless, Xu Tianran added: "If the Holy Son can cure me, I will appoint the Holy Son as the next national teacher and grant him the title of Duke, and the national teacher will also be granted the title of Duke. From now on, the Holy Spirit Church will forever be our Sun and Moon national religion, and will live and die with the country."

Zhongli Wu was overjoyed and quickly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then he added: "Life Demon, try your best. If you can cure His Majesty, I will personally capture three Titled Douluo alive for you to enjoy their vitality."

The life demon's eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously, "Okay!"

Then, seven soul rings appeared around the life demon, and the immortal tree of life and death emerged behind the life demon.

One yellow, two purple, two black, one gray, and one red, seven soul rings were shining brightly in the secret room.

"Your Majesty, you must first break the broken limbs before I can perform my duties."

Xu Tianran laughed and said, "It should be done this way to reshape the broken limbs. I will do it myself."

After saying that, he signaled Juzi to lift up his clothes, took out the knife that had just dealt the fatal blow to Xue Lao, and slashed it in three places in succession.

Severe, intense, unbearable pain attacked Xu Tianran one after another. Cold sweat covered his entire face, and his teeth were clenched tightly, with obvious bulges on his cheeks.

Zhongli Wu and Ming Yao looked at Xu Tianran's actions, their faces twitched, and their legs moved involuntarily twice, and they understood more about Xu Tianran's ruthlessness.

The life demon exclaimed in praise: "Your Majesty is a real man."

Xu Tianran was in so much pain that he almost fainted. He didn't want to listen to Ming Yao's flattery. He held the wheelchair armrests tightly with both hands. If the wheelchair was not made of extraordinary material, it would have been broken by the power of Xu Tianran's Titled Douluo cultivation.

Orange looked at the life demon whose admiration had not yet faded from his face, and felt helpless.

"Son of God, please treat His Majesty first."

The fate demon agreed and it finally began.

The Immortal Tree of Life and Death transformed and completely turned into the Tree of Life. The rich life force gradually became denser in the secret room.

The life force from Xue Lao gradually became purer during this process, turning into a flawless emerald green, which was then merged by the fate demon with Lin Yi's life force.

Then vitality surged out and injected into Xu Tianran's broken limbs.

With the infusion of vitality, the blood in Xu Tianran's affected area stopped seeping out, some disgusting granulation tissue began to grow rapidly, and the white bones in his legs began to regenerate.

Juzi forced a smile on her face, and with a hint of tears in her voice, she said, "Your Majesty..."

Xu Tianran's eyes showed a touch of emotion. He held Orange's little hand and patted it gently.

Upon seeing this, the fate demon hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please let go, otherwise the Queen will be hurt. Your Majesty will feel something during the process of reshaping her flesh, blood, and bones. Please endure it. There will be no second chance for this."

Although Xu Tianran didn't know what the fate demon said, he still obediently let go of the orange.

The next second, an extremely itchy feeling hit Xu Tianran's heart. The tingling sensation of his flesh and bones being regenerated made Xu Tianran want to scratch his flesh to pieces.

It was only because of years of forbearance and deep patience that Xu Tianran was able to hold back. Compared to the pain before, the itchiness now was even more unbearable.

But Xu Tianran had to endure all of these.

Even though he had left handprints on the wheelchair, his teeth were almost broken, and his gums were bleeding, Xu Tianran still didn't say a word.

The eyes of the life demon flashed. While continuously injecting vitality, his mental power quietly connected with the power of death that had been hidden in Xu Tianran's body before, devouring and feeding it with the power of life. After years of understanding the meaning of reincarnation, the transition between life and death was no longer difficult for him.

Just as Xu Tianran's legs recovered, the power of death was quietly growing stronger.

However, Xu Tianran was now completely focused on resisting the tingling sensation and did not notice the life demon's small movements at all.

Old Xue is dead, and Orange's cultivation is insufficient. Inside the secret room, only Zhongli Wu can barely notice it after being reminded in advance.

After exchanging glances with the Fate Demon, Zhongli Wu nodded.

As time passed, Xu Tianran's broken limb had mostly recovered, but the numbness and itching sensation was still there. However, as time went by, Xu Tianran had become somewhat accustomed to it and was able to devote some of his attention to it.

Looking at his second brother who looked a little sick but was obviously recovering, Xu Tianran even felt like crying.

He did not cry when his brother plotted against him; he did not cry when his father despised him and he nearly lost his position as crown prince; he did not cry when the court officials opposed and requested that he be deposed; even when he ascended the throne and ruled the world, he still did not cry.

But now, Xu Tianran felt as if he couldn't control his tears and wanted to cry.

Men don't shed tears easily, but they do when the hurt reaches its root.

Just when everything was going smoothly and Xu Tianran was about to become a complete man, the life demon's face suddenly changed and he asked in disbelief, "How could this be?"

An uncontrollable panic suddenly arose in Xu Tianran's heart. What happened?

Can't I be complete?

Zhongli Wu took a few steps forward and asked, "What's going on?"

The life demon said: "The vitality...is not enough."

"Not enough? What's the matter? Didn't you just say it was enough?"

The fate demon rolled his eyes secretly and secretly signaled to the leader in a place where Xu Tianran and Juzi couldn't notice.

"Can you please have some acting manners? The acting is too much and a bit fake."

Fortunately, Xu Tianran did not notice Zhongli Wu's abnormality at this time, but looked at the fate demon nervously. What Zhongli Wu asked just now was also what he wanted to know.

The Life Demon frowned and said, "Master, Your Majesty, it was enough originally, but I just discovered that there is a strange power in Your Majesty's body that is constantly devouring the life force. I didn't notice it before, but I discovered it when the consumption of vitality and the degree of recovery of Your Majesty's limbs were not consistent."

After hesitating for a moment, the Fate Demon tentatively asked, "Does your Majesty's martial spirit have an attribute similar to destruction?"

Xu Tianran nodded subconsciously, "Yes, my martial soul is the inherited martial soul of the Sun and Moon royal family, but few people can inherit it. It is called Zihuang Mie Tianlong, and it has the destructive attribute."

"This……"

The Life Demon hesitated, "I thought Your Majesty had the common Sun and Moon Martial Spirit of the royal family, but I didn't expect it to be of the destructive attribute. No wonder it has the instinctive attribute of devouring life."

Xu Tianran's face looked ugly. No wonder he felt other sensations in his body besides numbness and itching. It turned out that the Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon was instinctively devouring the power of life.

How can this be good?

At the critical moment, Zhongli Wu stood up.

"Life demon, how much vitality is missing now?"

The fate demon calculated silently for a moment, "Probably, one and a half percent."

"Are you sure there won't be any mistakes this time?"

"Sure, there is no mistake this time."

"Okay, in that case, you will make up the remaining 15% for His Majesty."

The life demon's face changed and he almost couldn't continue the movement.

Xu Tianran also looked surprised. He didn't expect Zhongli Wu to make such a decision.

Orange also recovered from her trembling. She had thought that she would follow in Xue Lao's footsteps, but then she realized that her vitality was probably not enough.

The fate demon looked somewhat reluctant.

Zhongli Wu did not give the life demon a chance to resist. The nine soul rings flickered faintly, like a silent threat.

"This was your mistake, so it's natural for you to make up for it."

After saying this, he put away the spirit ring and said as if to comfort him, "You can recover for His Majesty. As for the vitality you have lost, I will personally capture a Titled Douluo-level spirit master for you to replenish it.

If you suffer heavy losses, at worst, I can call Mother and Uncle Long, and His Majesty will personally invite Master Kong to you. Even if we have to storm Shrek, we can capture Lin Yi alive to replenish your vitality. How do you say that?"

Xu Tianran quickly responded, "Yes, I will never forget the sacrifice of the Holy Son."

The fate demon nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay."

Then, vitality poured in faster and faster, and Xu Tianran's recovery speed suddenly accelerated. Correspondingly, the feeling of numbing and itching became more intense.

Xu Tianran groaned, knowing that it was the fate demon throwing a tantrum. He was angry in his heart, but did not show it on his face. He just endured it silently.

Soon, all the vitality in the hands of the Life Demon was injected into Xu Tianran's body.

At the critical moment, the seventh soul ring around the life demon shone, and the scarlet light illuminated the entire secret room.

A seven or eight meter tall tree of life replaced the life demon's body.

The branches extended and came in front of Xu Tianran, gently piercing his skin and continuously injecting vitality.

It's just that the insertion position is slightly abnormal.

The center of the eyebrows, chest, lower abdomen, and limbs.

Vitality continued to be injected, and Xu Tianran's broken limbs continued to grow.

Suddenly, Xu Tianran's expression changed drastically...

Chapter 257: Sun and Moon Change Owners, Eighth Soul Ring

Feeling the surging vitality and watching his broken limbs recovering quickly, Xu Tianran's eyes were filled with undisguised joy.

The numbing and itchy feeling caused by the growth of the broken limb could not affect Xu Tianran's perception at this moment.

Almost instantly, Xu Tianran felt something abnormal in his body.

There is no destructive attribute that affects the absorption of life force. It is clearly the power of death growing stronger in his body.

Feeling the death force spreading throughout his limbs and bones, Xu Tianran's face changed drastically, and the Purple Brilliant Heavenly Dragon instantly possessed his body, ready to expel the death force.

If there was no Life Demon beside him, even if the Life Demon could remotely control these death forces, it would not be enough to affect Xu Tianran. As a dragon-type martial soul with destructive attributes, the power of the Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon is unquestionable.

The destruction attribute is a superior attribute that is not inferior to the death attribute. Coupled with Xu Tianran's Titled Douluo level of cultivation, it is not difficult for him to eliminate the power of death.

But at this time, the Life Demon was right next to Xu Tianran, and even the branches in the form of his martial soul were still stuck in Xu Tianran's body. If Xu Tianran could break free from the restraints in this situation, the Life Demon would dissipate on its own.

Xu Tianran's expression changed as he found that he couldn't even possess his martial spirit. It seemed that his soul power was sealed by the power of death. He could only allow the power of life to roam in his body, and then be confined to another level.

Looking at the Tree of Life in front of him, Xu Tianran's eyes were full of unwillingness. He knew that he was still dazzled by the possibility of completeness. The price of this mistake today might be his own life.

Filled with despair, Xu Tianran wanted to activate the soul guide formations in the palace and die together with Ming Yao and others. However, how could he activate those soul guide methods when he couldn't even control his soul power?

Orange naturally discovered Xu Tianran's abnormality, but with her cultivation level, the gap in strength between her and the Life Demon and Zhongli Wu was too huge, so huge that Orange had no room to resist at all.

Looking at Xu Tianran, the Tree of Life swayed gently, and the voice of the Life Demon came out, "Your Majesty, please relax. The discomfort is only temporary. Soon, you will get eternal peace. The sun and the moon will reach unprecedented peaks under your leadership. You can rest assured."

After saying this, the speed at which the Tree of Life infused Xu Tianran's vitality suddenly increased. Almost in an instant, Xu Tianran, who had almost recovered, became completely whole, but his life also came to an end.

In Orange's eyes, the Tree of Life seemed to melt, and suddenly turned into almost liquid vitality, which flowed into Xu Tianran's body along the previous branches.

Soon, the last few branches were all poured into Xu Tianran's body. Both the Life Demon and the Tree of Life had completely disappeared from the secret room. Instead, Xu Tianran's breath had slightly changed.

A dragon roar was heard, and the shadow of a giant purple dragon emitting a breath of destruction appeared behind Xu Tianran. But that was not the end. The shadow of a half-alive and half-dead, half-withered and half-green tree also appeared behind Xu Tianran.

The fate demon actually merged with Xu Tianran in some unknown way.

Orange was shocked, but saw 'Xu Tianran' suddenly opened his eyes, moved a few times, and then stood up. His yellow robe fell naturally, covering his newly grown lower limbs.

Xu Tianran turned his head and looked at Juzi, still with that familiar gaze, but beneath the gentle appearance, it was full of coldness and sinisterness.

Orange suddenly shuddered. Is the current Xu Tianran still Xu Tianran or the fate demon?

At this moment, 'Xu Tianran' spoke up, "Juzi, seeing that I have recovered, aren't you happy for me?"

The tone, expression, and even the pauses were all the same as the previous Xu Tianran, but Orange, who knew Xu Tianran well, knew very well that the current 'Xu Tianren' was no longer the sinister and suspicious New Emperor of the Sun and Moon.

It was an inexplicable intuition. Although Xu Tianran didn't seem to have changed at all, Juzi knew that Xu Tianran had disappeared. Now Xu Tianran was just a shell with some unknown ghost thing inside.

As if he had had enough fun, 'Xu Tianran' suddenly changed into the voice of the life demon.

"Empress, please make a choice. Will you become the queen who rules the country, or become an assassin who hides beside His Majesty and tries to kill him? It's time to make your choice."
