Chapter 85: Chapter 84.
As they chatted, Wang Feng slowly regained some strength, thanks to Meteoric Tears.
Sword Douluo, observing the battered Wang Feng, was intrigued by his resilience.
"This kid," he thought, "when I arrived, he could barely talk and was severely injured. Now, he's even standing?"
Sword Douluo spoke calmly, "I have a few questions. If you can't answer, my sword won't spare you."
Wang Feng nodded vigorously, "Ask away!"
Sword Douluo pointed to a distant location, "Did you see a beam of light just now?"
It was the starting point for Wang Feng and Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle fight, and Wang Feng was now several hundred meters away from there.
Upon hearing this, Wang Feng's heart raced. He thought, "Seems like using the Pangu Axe earlier created quite a commotion. Sword Douluo must have noticed it!"
"Oh, I did see it." Wang Feng replied nonchalantly.
"At that time, the beam of light was enormous and I could vaguely make out a towering figure. In the center of the beam, this figure held a divine object, looking as handsome as a deity, like a gathering of all the world's masculine charm was on him."
Sword Douluo raised an eyebrow, finding this description rather peculiar.
Wang Feng continued, "I was quite far away and the Titan Giant Ape had thrown me down, leaving me seriously injured and barely able to move. But I saw enough. It was as if that man possessed the power to make heaven and earth kneel before him, wielding a divine axe like a supreme weapon! The moment he struck, the earth quaked, the sky trembled and all the soul beasts in the vicinity scattered like ants! You can't even imagine the sheer force it displayed!"
Hearing this, Sword Douluo was genuinely surprised. Just how terrifying was that power? Was it indeed a human? Could it be a martial soul wielded by someone? These questions raced through his mind.
Not only was he filled with awe, but even the soul beasts were profoundly fearful of it.
"What else can you tell me?" Sword Douluo inquired with growing interest.
"Anything else?" Wang Feng feigned surprise, "Well, the divine object in his hand was also able to cleave through the void and also disappeared the same way! Fortunately, I wasn't directly hit. I was a bit unlucky though, that 30,000-year-old Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle was nearby, and it didn't get obliterated. It just got a bit shaken. I think it smelled me and wanted to make me its next meal."
"Thankfully, senior, you arrived just in time and saved me." Wang Feng expressed his gratitude.
Sword Douluo was left in awe after hearing this.
Splitting the void? Space? He thought, "This must be..."
He secretly thanked his good fortune for not arriving earlier. Facing such formidable power would have been a daunting task even for him.
However, he couldn't entirely dismiss what Wang Feng said, there was some credibility to it.
"Senior, is there anything else you'd like to know?" Wang Feng inquired cautiously while casting a glance at Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle, finding some solace in its presence.
"It's quite simple." Sword Douluo said with a sly grin.
"There's a saying that goes by 'if the little one is kicked, the old one can kick back, right?"
Wang Feng's heart sank at the question, leaving him lost for words.
Sometimes, the world works in mysterious ways. If Sword Douluo hadn't shown up in the nick of time, Wang Feng felt he might be in dire straits right now. But Sword Douluo was here and Wang Feng knew he was in for a tough time. Such are the consequences of one's actions.
Ning Rongrong had fallen victim to a prank and she was now in tears. Wang Feng had a hunch that he'd face some repercussions for it. He was mentally prepared for the impending showdown, though he wished if he weren't in such a sorry state.
Wang Feng coughed a few times and spoke earnestly, "Well, logically speaking, if the little one gets kicked, it's probably because the little one might have lacked some skills...otherwise, he/she wouldn't be kicked, right?"
The words hung in the air and Sword Douluo's expression darkened.
"This kid has some nerve," he thought. "No wonder he dared to hurt Rongrong."
But then, Wang Feng quickly added, "However, as an elder, it's only natural to guide the younger generation. So, I think, of course, the one that kicked should get a taste of his/her own medicine... but..."
"But what?" Sword Douluo furrowed his brows.
Wang Feng continued with a smile, "It's just that, senior shouldn't take advantage of my current condition to teach a lesson to me, junior, right? I could blow away in the wind right now. Seniors, with your magnificent title of Titled Douluo, who has roamed the mainland for over a decade, would that befit a person of your stature? Even if you do decide to give me a few kicks, it'll only sully your own name! But if you still want to kick me a few times, it's this Wang Feng's fortune."
Sword Douluo was taken aback.
"This kid is quite the talker." he mused.
Sword Douluo glanced at Wang Feng, realizing that bullying this injured young man wouldn't be fitting for a distinguished Titled Douluo like himself.
"Young man, are you buttering me up just so I'll let you recover and then give you a good kicking?" Sword Douluo grinned.
"Don't worry, I, Sword Douluo, am not so petty. I'll let you recuperate properly. And when you're back on your feet, I'll bring Rongrong and the others here. You can use all your tricks on me. I won't even use my martial soul, I'll just kick you! If you manage to withstand three kicks from me, I won't blame you for kicking Rongrong!"
Sword Douluo, a man with decades of experience, understood what Wang Feng was getting at. He had no intention of bullying a junior like this.
"Young man, you have quite the silver tongue." Sword Douluo replied with a wry smile.
Wang Feng praised him, saying, "You truly are a rare and noble individual, upstanding like a true man and upholding justice in this world."
Even Sword Douluo couldn't help but blush at Wang Feng's words. This kid had a way with words.
"If you're so benevolent and righteous, why not stay and protect me while I recover? This place is quite perilous." Wang Feng suggested.
Sword Douluo raised an eyebrow, feeling surprised.
"Boy, you're pushing your luck." he chuckled.
"I am a Titled Douluo and can offer some help, but guarding your life here? If you're fortunate, you'll recover on your own. If not, well, that's the fate of someone who ventured too far into dangerous territory on their own. I must return to Rongrong now."
With that, Sword Douluo retrieved his sword and swiftly departed. He had seen the disappearance of the light beam and had come alone, leaving Zhao Wuji and Rongrong behind. The situation was too perilous, and he needed to find them before something unexpected happens again.
Besides, there were no soul beasts around anymore, the mysterious light beam had sent them fleeing. Despite his harsh words, Sword Douluo wasn't truly worried about Wang Feng's safety.
As Sword Douluo's figure disappeared into the distance, Wang Feng wore a sly grin.
"Just as I wanted."
Wang Feng, despite his injuries, moved slowly toward the completely incapacitated Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle in the distance. His approach resembled that of a man who had abstained for thirty years, finally seeing a peerless beauty lying naked on a bed.
"Old tortoise, it seems you're destined to become my soul ring."
Wang Feng reached the Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle, which was barely holding onto life and it gave him a disdainful look as if it couldn't be bothered to move and was resigned to its fate.
"Do you underestimate me?" Wang Feng sneered. With the energy flowing from Meteoric Tears, his body was in prime condition for absorbing soul rings.
This approach eliminated the need for waiting. The energy from the soul ring ripped into pieces even before Wang Feng activated Meteoric Tears. As he absorbed the soul ring, Meteoric Tears rapidly regenerated, creating a seamless process.
Without hesitation, Wang Feng withdrew a short sword from his ring and pierced the Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle several times before closing it in.
The black soul ring swiftly separated from the Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle's body. Wang Feng sat cross-legged, soul power under control and began absorbing it.
Almost instantly!
A torrential surge of soul power inundated Wang Feng's body, akin to a band of marauders invading a village, wreaking havoc within him. Unlike the Ice Emperor Emperor Lizard, the Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle did not willingly become Wang Feng's soul ring, and he struggled to control the immense energy pouring inside of him.
He had no control over this overwhelming force, which was beyond his imagination. It rampaged throughout his body, much like his first soul ring absorption. Each wave felt like it was tearing him apart, nearly crushing him! Blood began to seep from all part of his body, reminiscent of his first body reconstruction.
However, this time was different. Meteoric Tears released a warm energy that immediately began repairing his body while the 30,000-year soul ring's energy ravaged him. It wasn't like the first time when Meteoric Tears repaired his body after it was completely damaged.
In essence, now it was simultaneous destruction and repair, which was better than reconstruction. The pain and relief were almost synchronous - true agony and ecstasy!
Gradually, as the soul ring's energy wreaked havoc throughout Wang Feng's body, he realized it couldn't be destroyed. Finally, the Chaos Green Lotus in his sea of consciousness blossomed slowly, and the Black Lotus, like ink, absorbed the torrential energy from the soul ring like a river.
Suddenly, a roar echoed in his sea of consciousness. It was Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle soul consciousness, full of anger. Absorbing and assimilating it wouldn't be simple!
A 30,000-year Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle's soul ring - something a mere 30th-level soul master wanted to absorb? This turtle was inherently domineering and exuded a fierce and tyrannical aura eve after death!
"Black Lotus!" Wang Feng's entire body trembled violently, and his sea of consciousness seemed to erupt in a storm, washing over his soul.
In the center, the Black Lotus suddenly emitted a blackish dark aura, swiftly enveloping the consciousness of the mysterious Thorns Black Turtle. The Black Lotus possessed the unique ability to absorb and quell all forms of emotions including anger and hostility, making it highly effective against the Mysterious Thorns Black Turtle's fierce nature!
