Douluo : People are writing diaries in Douluo

"Ghost Elder, from what I know, the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bears in the Star Dou Forest's core territory are led by one far stronger than a hundred-thousand-year-old spirit beast. You might not want to be too curious; if you ever encountered it…" Su Ming sighed, cautioning him.

Hearing this, Ghost Douluo's pupils contracted in surprise. "Stronger than a hundred-thousand-year-old beast?"

Seeing Ghost Douluo's skepticism, Su Ming explained further, "If you're still in doubt, why not try fighting this ten-thousand-year-old Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear here? Even for a Title Douluo, breaking through its defenses would be challenging."

Su Ming examined the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear before them with satisfaction. Fortunately, it had only recently reached ten thousand years in cultivation—otherwise, Zhu Zhuqing wouldn't be able to absorb it. Even with its current strength, they'd likely face some difficulties.

"Su Ming, you're saying that even a ten-thousand-year-old bear is formidable enough to give a Title Douluo a tough time. With my current level, are you sure I can absorb its spirit ring?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, a bit anxious.

"Don't worry, Zhuqing. Just focus on absorbing the ring when the time comes. Leave the rest to me," Su Ming assured her.

Zhu Zhuqing recalled how much Su Ming had sacrificed to help her absorb her fourth spirit ring and hesitated. "You're not planning on doing what you did last time, are you?"

She instinctively wanted to refuse, valuing his well-being over any power gain. But Su Ming tapped her forehead, chuckling, "What are you thinking, Zhuqing? My strength has grown too. Trust me—I wouldn't suggest this if I wasn't certain."

Su Ming's confidence stemmed from his newly acquired sixth spirit ring: a fifteen-thousand-year-old ring focused on mental power. Its strength had elevated his spiritual capabilities tremendously.

Seeing Su Ming's confidence, Ghost Douluo felt a surge of competitiveness. "It's just a ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast! How powerful could it be?" He was aware that some high-level beasts, like the Titan Giant Ape, were strong enough to rival Title Douluos even at seventy to eighty thousand years of cultivation. But could the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear truly surpass that?

Unaware of the true power structure of the Star Dou Forest's core area, Ghost Douluo had no idea that the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear was a breed with the bloodline of the ancient Behemoth, its power second to none among bear species. Titan Giant Apes were no match for it.

Right then, the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear displayed its might, tearing the Thunder Dragon apart in a single strike with its innate soul skill, Dark Gold Dreadclaw.

Watching this, Ghost Douluo's confidence wavered. He gulped—could he withstand such an attack?

Su Ming's warning that Title Douluos should tread carefully now seemed more than reasonable. Still, he had to prove himself before Zhu Zhuqing. No matter the odds, he would face this beast head-on as her master.

Finished with the Thunder Dragon, the bear finally focused its hostile gaze on Su Ming and his group. It had sensed their presence from the start, but had prioritized dealing with the dragon. Now, it issued a challenge, roaring fiercely and slamming its chest in defiance.

"Ghost Elder, it's provoking us! This Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear is all yours. I'll support you from the sidelines," Su Ming remarked with a casual smile, adding, "Good luck!"

Ghost Douluo bristled. "I don't need encouragement from a mere Spirit King!"

"Second Spirit Skill: Gate of Ghosts!" With a quick movement, Ghost Douluo positioned himself in front of the bear and activated his second spirit skill. Crimson, skull-adorned stone gates rose on all sides, creating a ghastly arena that augmented his power by thirty percent and prevented the bear from escaping.

This was Su Ming's first time witnessing Ghost Douluo fight in earnest. The skill, though eerie, was undeniably impressive—a solo combat mastery skill. The only way out for the bear was for Ghost Douluo himself to disable it or for it to be shattered from the outside.

"Seventh Spirit Skill: Ghostly True Form!"

"Fifth Spirit Skill: Ghost Shadow Grasp!"

Now fully engaged, Ghost Douluo wasted no time, activating his true form and launching his fifth spirit skill to restrain the bear. Yet, to his surprise, the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear shrugged off the binding with a swipe of its claws, breaking free from his grip with sheer brute strength.

Seeing this, Ghost Douluo knew he'd have to unleash his full power. To prevent accidentally killing the bear and making it unusable for Zhu Zhuqing, he would need to avoid lethal blows.

Unleashing his ultimate form—Black Hell Ghost Armor! This granted a fifteen-fold soul power boost, enhanced his attributes by ten times, allowed unlimited spirit skill usage, and combined his ghost king's spirit power with physical strength to make his attacks unavoidable and unblockable.

Watching the transformation, Su Ming and Zhu Zhuqing were in awe. Ghost Douluo's final form, cloaked in armor, was strikingly imposing, and his seventh skill seemed almost too powerful. With immunity to physical damage and unavoidable attacks, this Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear was truly outmatched.
