Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

The Dark Devil Monarch had murdered its three previous opponents, tearing them apart and devouring them in plain sight on the stage.

If not for the Ancestral Court's belief that such opponents would stimulate the progress of young powerhouses from various clans, they would have already taken action against it.

However, the Dark Devil Monarch clan had received assurances from the Ancestral Court that it would be allowed to leave safely after the competition, which was why it had to participate.

Big Cat had also killed two opponents, although in a less deranged way.

Another contestant had initially reached this stage, but due to severe injuries, it announced its withdrawal from the competition.

Therefore, today's match would determine who would advance to the next round, and it was closely watched. Whoever could defeat the other would secure a spot in the final. And the loser… likely a spot in the Netherworld.

Big Cat and the Dark Devil Monarch were considered among this competition's most ferocious contestants. In this clash of two fierce fighters, who would emerge victorious?

On one side was an entity filled with a dark aura. On the other, an eruption of domineering, white-hot force.

The battle hadn't even begun, and the atmosphere was already tense.

Big Cat's pupils suddenly turned into vertical slits, and in the next instant, it stomped the ground fiercely, letting out a deep roar.

He shot toward the opponent like a cannonball.

The Dark Devil Monarch on the opposite side emitted a black, almost viscous aura and suddenly lunged forward. Its claws extended from its fingertips like black lightning, leaving behind a string of inky shadows. It also pounced on Big Cat.

The two sides quickly closed the distance. Just as they were about to collide, the shadows behind the Dark Devil Monarch suddenly split apart, forming six figures that, together with the main body, surrounded Big Cat.

Each figure appeared extremely real, and in an instant, the sky was filled with flashing claw shadows.

Viscous black energy streams surged up, sealing off all possible escape routes for Big Cat.

Reaching this stage of the competition undoubtedly meant that this Dark Devil Monarch's bloodline was a first-tier one.

The corrosive dark energy it emitted wildly expelled other elemental properties in the air, making the entire world darken.

At this moment, a deafening roar resounded.

Big Cat's body suddenly expanded, and he instantly transformed into a towering figure over five meters tall.

His strong body burst out of his clothing, and dazzling platinum force erupted outward.

Due to his roar, the seven figures momentarily hesitated.

Big Cat's eyes flashed with divine light the next moment, and his heavy sword swept out horizontally.

This swift slash was devoid of any flashiness, but it was incredibly fast and carried unparalleled, intense force.

With that Lion-Tiger Roar, Big Cat's momentum had already peaked.

This was the result of battle experience and self-control.

Big Cat's bloodline power might not compare to the top-tier bloodlines of the Dragon or Phoenix clans, but he was not inferior in manipulating bloodline power. ŕＡŊȎВĘS

Besides his formidable strength, he had countless life-and-death battle experiences.

Each battle could mean death, and his combat experience was nearly always gained on the brink of death.

Therefore, no matter the opponent, he could maintain absolute calmness and know precisely when and how to unleash his power to the fullest.

Without any reservation, his sword swept out, generating a circle of radiant platinum force.

Those dark figures almost instantly disintegrated under its power, but then turned into viscous black streams that swept toward the Lion-Tiger Golden Force, seemingly trying to attach themselves directly to it.

At this moment, the Lion-Tiger Golden Force burst forth with mighty platinum light.

The surging black streams immediately dissipated by more than a third. They seemed to panic and instantly dissipated, regrouping not far away to form the silhouette of the Dark Devil Monarch.

The next moment, Big Cat's heavy sword was raised high, and white-hot flames descended from the sky, slashing toward it like a torrent.

The Dark Devil Monarch's eyes flickered with a crimson glow as its figure flashed backward; an afterimage was shattered by the sword light, but that was all, an afterimage.

Big Cat's gaze sharpened. He had locked onto his opponent earlier yet still struck an afterimage. This meant the opponent could forcibly break free from the lock of his attacks.

"Devouring? That is interesting." The Dark Devil Monarch's raspy voice emerged, crimson light flickering in its eyes. In the next moment, its entire body turned dark red. Behind it, a dark red halo expanded, transforming into a bloody moon, tinting everything around it dark red.

As Big Cat saw the dark red hue, he felt his breath quicken and chest tighten. The follow-up attack he intended to launch came to an abrupt halt.

The Dark Devil Monarch's figure melded into the blood moon behind it. A cold, hoarse voice followed. "You're strong, worthy of my full strength. Witness the power of the Blood Moon Monarch!"

The stench of blood surged abruptly, and the entire arena seemed to turn dark red. Countless anguished screams echoed from all directions, and at that moment, Big Cat seemed to see numerous souls rushing toward him from all sides. His gaze turned chaotic, and his aura became unstable.

Below the stage, seeing the blood light surrounding Big Cat, Tang San couldn't help but frown slightly, and his gaze turned icy.

"Big Brother, what is this ability?"

Mei Gongzi sounded more and more natural when calling Tang San "Big Brother."

Tang San said deeply, "This is a cruel and bloody ability. You can call it… the Bloodstained Domain. I believe this ability requires extensive slaughter, continuously collecting blood, and enduring the curses of those whose blood was taken, forming a domain ability. It cannot be achieved without thousands of kills. Once trapped in it, the opponent will be affected by the bloody curse, which impacts the mind. Meanwhile, the Dark Devil Monarch using this domain will be stimulated by the curse, entering an even stronger state. I believe that’s what he calls the Blood Moon Monarch."

"Such a cruel ability exists?" Mei Gongzi shivered, looking at the blood color in the stands and feeling the thick scent of blood, suddenly feeling a bit suffocated.

Tang San raised his hand to block her view. "Don't look, and don't try to sense it. This Dark Devil Monarch deserves to die. And if their entire clan cultivates this way, they all deserve to die. They won't have a good end, either. Cultivating this Bloodstained Domain requires constant killing, devouring blood, and increasing the power of the resentment curse. This makes them very powerful, but it also makes them susceptible to backlash.

"Because it goes against the natural order, I suspect it’s extremely difficult for their clan to become gods. The heavenly tribulations they face must be immensely powerful and terrifying. And if one does overcome the tribulation, it won't become a god but a divine devil. To think the Ancestral Court allows such beings to exist… Are they unafraid of the emergence of a divine devil whose sole purpose in existence is to destroy everything?"

"Can Big Cat win?"

Tang San gently shook his head and frowned. "I don't know."

Here, he couldn't interfere with the match. Countless Demon Kings and Great Demon Kings were watching. If he used his divine consciousness to interfere and got caught, it would be a huge problem. This Bloodstained Domain was extremely difficult to cultivate, but its power was immense. Whether Big Cat could win within this domain depended entirely on himself.
