Douluo: Unbeatable from Capturing a Goddess

The Zhu Tian Sword now, where is it still the previously unremarkable look, had undergone astounding changes.

If not for the feeling of blood connection, Luo Yu would almost believe this wasn't his Martial Soul.

The body of the Zhu Tian had become broader, and its color changed, too.

It was ice-blue and translucent all over, flickering with strange lights.

The surface of the blade was engraved with Ice Phoenix patterns, full of spirituality, almost seeming alive, and a long blue Ice Chain extended from the hilt, spiraling around Luo Yu's hand, spreading up his arm.

The edge of the sword bore a crimson color like a red lotus.

Without even swinging the sword, the space around seemed as if it would be frozen by this sword.

"This..."

"This is just too awesome."

Luo Yu's shocked mouth remained agape for a long time.

The Martial Souls of Soul Land have their limitations, even the Seven Kills Sword of Jian Dao Chen Xin, hailed as the first attacking force in the world, could at most become bigger or smaller, or just enhance its might.

His Zhu Tian Sword, typically mundane, was at its most indestructible.

But after the soul ring's power poured in, it was as if it had shed its mortal skin and bones, undergoing a complete transformation.

The overall form had changed.

The color, attributes, and shape were all different.

As the Sword Master, he could now clearly feel that this was still only the initial release form of the Zhu Tian Sword's first soul skill.

Within it seemed to be contained a force of extremity cold ice, which, once released, would surely be earth-shatteringly astonishing and out of the ordinary.

"Swish!"

A silver shadow appeared outside the cave, drawn by the commotion of Luo Yu using his soul skill.

"Gu Yuena?"

Luo Yu shifted his gaze from the blade and looked towards the stunningly beautiful girl with a graceful and elegant demeanor.

"You're finally awake," Gu Yuena's purple eyes were as calm as an ancient well, she spoke languidly.

"Was it you who helped me?" Luo Yu watched the woman's expression closely.

"Nonsense, if not me then who could it be?" Gu Yuena snorted coldly, glaring and said, "You're quite something, to be drugged by a young girl."

Luo Yu's mouth twitched, and he said awkwardly, "She meant well but did poorly, I never thought that stuff could be an aphrodisiac."

Gu Yuena gave him a sharp look, "So how did it turn out, you were baffled, right?"

Luo Yu shook his head, "Enough, let's not talk about that. How did I get out of that state? I didn't hurt you, did I?"

"You?"

"Hurt me?"

"What a joke."

Gu Yuena tilted her Beautiful Eyes, seemingly suggesting, "Are you even capable of that?"

Luo Yu wasn't buying it, the girl might seem indifferent, but he had known Gu Yuena for so many years, how could he not notice the subtleties in the girl's behavior?

"If you're really that composed, first loosen the hand you're gripping behind your back," he said.

"Annoying! Do you have to dig to the root of everything and ask until it's all clear?" After being pointed out, Gu Yuena's voice showed petulance and her cheeks reddened slightly.

"You... you didn't really help me personally…" Luo Yu was struck as if by lightning.

"Help what help! You slept with that Female Pope and still want to touch me? Impossible." Gu Yuena's face returned to cold as her purple eyes narrowed, lashes quivering slightly.

"???"

"How do you know my affairs in such detail?"

"Gu Yuena, you've been spying on me!"

Watching Luo Yu's face turn livid, Gu Yuena turned away, revealing her snowy white neck, and huffed, "I wasn't spying, I was secretly protecting you."

"Why aren't you staying well in Star Dou, following me around everywhere!" Luo Yu reproached.

"Luo Yu, what do you mean? I can go wherever I want, follow whoever I choose. Can you control it?" Gu Yuena glared, her voice rising.

Luo Yu faced her sternly, staring directly, his severe voice laced with authority, "You haven't yet recovered from your injuries, don't you know that?"

"I…" Gu Yuena's cold facade instantly faltered, her Beautiful Eyes shining as she swallowed back the harsh words she was about to say.

"Are... are you concerned about me?" the girl's voice softened.

"Nonsense, after so many years together, if not concerned about you, then who?"

"In the vast Aquipeia Forest, besides me, who dares to care about you."

"Even if they dared, those fools don't understand the pain in your heart, let alone the trauma you once suffered in the Divine Realm." Luo Yu's pace slowed as he sighed.

Gu Yuena's beautiful eyes completely softened, and all the sharpness on her person vanished, as she murmured softly, "Brother Yu... it's my fault, I shouldn't have secretly followed you."

Luo Yu shook his head, "You shouldn't have followed, you should have rested and healed."

Gu Yuena's smooth jade feet traced circles on the ground, "I was just worried about you~ If it weren't for me, who would have taken care of your troubles!"

Luo Yu paused, "How did you... take care of them..."

Gu Yuena lowered her head, "Well... don't overthink it... nothing special happened."

Luo Yu frowned, "I couldn't have just recovered on my own, right? Just tell me what you did to me, I'll take responsibility."

Gu Yuena spat softly, shook her head repeatedly, and stammered, "With my hands... using hands doesn't require responsibility, does it?"

"Ah ha?"

"There's this move?"

Luo Yu was dumbfounded; he didn't expect Gu Yuena to do such a thing.

"It's not... who taught you all these bad things?"

Gu Yuena panicked, pouting her mouth in discontent, "What are you saying, who would dare teach me, watch me not kill them!"

"Actually, I saw everything you did with the Empress that day, and then I thought whether I could try a different way to help you solve the problem."

Luo Yu looked deeply at Gu Yuena, suddenly struck by her beauty.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Is this the brilliance of the Silver Dragon King?

A natural talent without a master.

"Why are you looking at me? I'm so clever, how could I let you, a stinky man, take advantage of me?" Gu Yuena proudly tilted her chin, her silver hair fluttering along.

"Uh..."

Luo Yu was momentarily speechless.

This... are you sure it's not me taking advantage of you?

Of course, he definitely wouldn't say that, his gaze shifting unnaturally towards her luminous jade-like hands.

"By the way, how did your Martial Soul suddenly change its appearance like this!"

"A hundred-thousand-year soul ring, your first soul ring is a hundred-thousand-year one??"

Gu Yuena's cherry lips parted slightly as she moved closer in a flash.

Her slender fingers poked at the crimson blade and the ice-blue sword body, eyes brimming with curiosity.

"No, it's been half a day, and you're just noticing it now." Luo Yu quipped.

Gu Yuena gave him a white glance, "You were just asking me something, weren't you? Tell me, how did your sword suddenly change like this, it's so miraculous, even I've never seen anything like it with my expertise."

Luo Yu immediately explained to Gu Yuena, but he omitted the part about the System.

"Wow, your first soul skill is too overpowered, isn't it? The entire form and attributes of the longsword have completely changed, it's basically like you've switched to another Sword Martial Soul, right?"

Luo Yu smiled lightly, "The way you put it, it does seem to be true."

"Wait!" Gu Yuena pondered, "You're not going to tell me that every soul ring you release in the future will have its own independent form, are you?"

"This..." Luo Yu shook his head, "I'm not sure, but what you're saying is actually quite possible."

Gu Yuena stepped aside and beckoned with her fingertips, "Come on, come on, it should still be in its initial state, right? Let me test the true power of your first soul skill."

Luo Yu didn't hesitate; he knew Gu Yuena's Cultivation Level by heart.

The perfect candidate for a combat test.

His Soul Power surged, and he fully activated his first soul skill.

Ice-blue mist rose from the sword body, and the phoenix patterns on the surface came to life. The temperature inside the cave plummeted rapidly as frost covered everything.

Red and blue lights flickered.

"Whoosh!"

Behind Luo Yu, a pair of Phoenix Wings made of Profound Ice abruptly took shape, with each feather a perfect crystalline ice sculpture, vivid and lifelike.

The spectacle wasn't over; beneath him rose twelve petals of red lotus, made entirely of ice, brimming with cold air. The blooming petals were not only aesthetically pleasing but also completely enveloped Luo Yu within.

Gu Yuena was immediately mesmerized.

She had never seen such a beautiful soul skill.

Luo Yu brandished the longsword, and the crimson blade tore through the air. A blue Ice Phoenix illusion burst forth, the cave's temperature plummeted further, and it rapidly bore down on Gu Yuena.

"Bang!"

"Crack, crack!!"

The cave shook violently, the ground cracked, walls crumbled, and tiny droplets of broken stone tumbled down...
