Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San Chapter 522: Extinguishing the Blood Moon

Chapter 522: Extinguishing the Blood Moon

Suddenly, Big Cat abruptly opened his eyes, and in that instant, his eyes were filled with madness and wild abandon.

The Blood Moon Monarch was preparing to attack again, and it was overjoyed at the sight. To it, this was a sign that the opponent’s mind had been invaded by the domain and had completely fallen into chaos. It wasn’t even in a hurry to launch an attack anymore, knowing that once the opponent’s mind was in disarray, he would exhaust his bloodline through mad outbursts of power and eventually be devoured by the Bloodstained Domain, leading to his death.

It even felt regretful that Big Cat hadn’t held out a bit longer. The longer Big Cat could persist, the more qualified he would be to serve as the main soul of its domain!

“Kill, kill, KILL!!!”

From the first “kill” to the third, Big Cat’s deep roar gradually grew louder.

The Lion-Tiger Golden Force, which had been weakening under constant attack, suddenly burst out with a dazzling platinum light, but it was not the pristine color it used to have. A blood-red hue appeared within the incandescent light. Then, white and red intertwined, forming a strange pale pink.

When this pale pink light erupted, a bizarre scene unfolded.

The surrounding blood-colored domain began to condense madly toward Big Cat, causing his aura to swell wildly.

What is this?! The Blood Moon Monarch stared in astonishment at the scene, clearly sensing that its domain’s power was being wildly devoured by the opponent. At the same time, its power was rapidly weakening.

As the Blood Moon Monarch’s domain was devoured by Big Cat, the blood-colored aura was absorbed into his body. At the same time, layers of black fog continuously spread outwards from his pores, as if his body was filtering the energy and expelling the impurities. The black fog churned and transformed into eerie phantoms, resembling demon faces flickering and shifting.

Tang San’s eyes suddenly brightened as he witnessed the scene. He seemed to understand something and could not stop himself from exclaiming, “This is… Haha, Big Cat, you’re amazing!”

Roar—

The Blood Moon Monarch grew anxious on the stage, as it could clearly feel its power being rapidly drained. It suddenly lunged forward, claws extended, attacking Big Cat with all its might.

Boom—

The pink force burst forth, and the powerful counterforce directly sent the Blood Moon Monarch flying. And as it flew, it felt something…

Fear.

It felt fear for the first time.

At the moment of impact, it sensed its power being drained at an even faster pace. The change was actually visible thanks to the Bloodstained Domain—the blood-colored aura covering the entire stage quickly grew thinner, while the black fog grew denser around Big Cat.

An indescribable fear spread within it. It suddenly opened its mouth, about to shout for surrender, as the situation had clearly spiraled entirely out of control. The Bloodstained Domain, cultivated through relentless slaughter, was actually being absorbed by the opponent!

“ROAR!!!”

As if sensing what it was about to do, a deep roar suddenly erupted from Big Cat’s mouth, drowning out its voice of surrender.

Although they could obviously see the Blood Moon Monarch trying to concede, the judges outside the arena remained unmoved. If Tang San could discern the nature of the Blood Moon Monarch’s domain, how could the god-level judges fail to do so? Nearly every demon and nymph harbored deep aversion toward the Dark Demon Monarch clan. Seeing that one of them was about to get its rightful comeuppance, why would they stop the match now? Dying in the competition wouldn’t be considered a breach of the Ancestral Court’s promise.

Then Big Cat’s cold voice sounded.

“I will avenge you. There is a cause for every grievance and a debtor for every debt. Go!”

When he opened his eyes again, they were filled with a frenzy for slaughter.

The heavy sword thrust into the ground was slowly drawn out. As its tip pointed at the Blood Moon Monarch, the black fog around Big Cat emitted countless piercing screams, transforming into faces as black as ink that crazily rushed toward it.

“NO—” The Blood Moon Monarch howled madly. But no one could stop this from happening now.

Countless black phantoms rushed into its body, causing it to swell; bumps and boils appeared on its skin, as if many small creatures were trying to burst out from within.

All the blood-colored aura surged into Big Cat’s body, becoming part of the Lion-Tiger Golden Force, while the black fog merged into the Blood Moon Monarch’s body, draining its life force.

The pink light Big Cat radiated grew more and more vibrant, and his aura continued to soar. In that instant, his cultivation and spiritual power surged to the absolute peak of the ninth order, and he almost lost control.

He didn’t even fully understand what was happening to him. At that moment, his heart was filled with intense killing intent, and he even felt the urge to slaughter every living being around him.

But then, another voice echoed in his heart, reminding him of why he needed to kill. It was not to quench his thirst for blood; it was to protect his kin, to protect his loved ones

This was his purpose for killing. Without this goal, he would not take lives.

Crack…

The Blood Moon Monarch’s skin had lost its vibrant, bloody color, reverting to its original reddish black. Then, it began to shatter, piece by piece, as if it had been corroded from the inside by the black fog. Its entire body began to melt down, turning into a pool of nauseating pitch-like liquid; even its sea of consciousness was not spared.

At this moment, Big Cat finally made his move. Fierce pink force suddenly slashed out from his heavy sword; pink flames filled with intense killing intent swept through, engulfing the black liquid. The force turned into flames, burning the puddle.

“Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. You have had your revenge. Now go in peace.”

All the ferocity and darkness gradually faded, leaving only the pervasive killing intent lingering around Big Cat.

The killing intent was gradually suppressed, and the referee, who had stepped back on the stage, was in shock as he looked at Big Cat. At this moment, Big Cat felt like a volcano that could erupt at any moment. With such immense killing intent contained within, what kind of scene would it be if it exploded?

Thankfully, when all the pink force re-entered Big Cat’s body, his state seemed to stabilize gradually. All traces of the killing intent disappeared, except for a hint of pink remaining deep in his eyes.

Only then did the referee remember to announce his victory, signaling that he would be able to participate in the finals.

Now, Big Cat was the center of everyone’s attention.

How had he done it? How had he devoured the energy from the Blood Moon Monarch’s domain? What would happen now that he had devoured it? There were no answers. Even the Great Demon King powerhouses couldn’t understand Big Cat’s state.

In any case, the fact was that he had won and was now one of the finalists.

All those who had entered the top sixteen had solemn expressions. This was an extremely difficult opponent. Not only had he defeated a Dark Devil Monarch in its strongest form, but it seemed that he had also absorbed some of its power, and nobody knew what impact it would have on his strength.

What kind of power would he display in the upcoming finals?

Big Cat slowly walked off the stage, taking each step very slowly as if he were afraid of stepping on ants.

Tang San was already waiting at the exit. As Big Cat descended the final step and looked at Tang San before him, his tense body relaxed slightly.

At that moment, Tang San raised his right hand and pointed at the center of Big Cat’s forehead. “Stay true to your heart!”

A cool stream of energy instantly drilled into the center of Big Cat’s forehead, entering his sea of consciousness.
