"Alright, then let's have a good fight today! To the death!"
Dugu Bo straightened his back, emerald green light spewing from his eyes, pushing his soul power to its limit.
"So touching. Then you shall die here together, your corpses buried by the yellow sand, gnawed by snakes, rats, insects, and ants!"
Gui Mei's icy gaze, with its intense penetration, pierced straight through space and landed on Dugu Bo and the others. His dense, dark purple soul power erupted, mixing with the black mist that swirled around him.
And at this very moment, a solidified, golden-purple radiance burst forth from Tang San's eyes.
Even with the strength of a Titled Douluo, the instant the golden-purple light pierced his eyes, Gui Mei's body couldn't help but tremble. His mind went blank for two to three seconds, and the oppressive pressure in the air momentarily ceased.
And in that instant, Ma Hongjun shot into the sky, launching Phoenix Roaring Heavenly Strike immediately. Cooperating with Dai Mubai's full power White Tiger Meteor Shower, all attacks landed on Yue Guan, who had already sustained some injuries.
"Nine Treasures have names!"
Dazzling, multi-colored light surged from Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, with four types of buffs simultaneously appearing on Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, boosting their attack power to its maximum.
But this was not enough to shake a Titled Douluo.
Yue Guan, subjected to concentrated fierce attacks, his eyes turned somewhat sinister. A layer of pale purple aura erupted from his body. Ma Hongjun's follow-up restraining skill for Phoenix Roaring Heavenly Strike failed to take effect; he was sent flying, coughing up a mouthful of blood in mid-air.
Dai Mubai also let out a muffled groan, hearing the sound of his arm bones cracking. His clenched fists unwillingly lost their force and hung at his sides. Dark blue silver grass vines stretched towards Dai Mubai, while simultaneously coiling around the flying-back Ma Hongjun, pulling them back to Ning Rongrong's side.
Oscar chanted a soul incantation, stuffing soul-powered food for detoxification and soul power recovery into the mouths of Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai.
Tang San's King Yama's Post was ready to be unleashed, but just before he could activate it, a layer of pale golden light erupted from Yue Guan on the other side. His entire body became illusory, actually interrupting Tang San's Purple Demon Eye lock!
Not good!
Tang San's heart chilled. The soul power he had gathered within his body to activate King Yama's Post trembled violently, but he could not swing his right hand. He was locked in place by the aura of Yue Guan's soul skill.
"Die!"
Yue Guan, whose martial soul was the Sacred Sun Mushroom with the characteristic of invulnerability, raised his hand. Ten fluffy petals fluttered out, heading straight for Tang San. These petals, which appeared to fly slowly, seemed to follow the principles of heaven and earth, sealing off Tang San's aura and all escape routes.
Gui Mei followed closely, his fingertips elongating like bone, clawing towards Tang Sui: "You die too!"
"Hoo—!"
Raven-black long hair rippled in the air, rapidly shrinking in the eyes of Tang San and Flander.
Sui... Sui...?
"Second Soul Skill, Good Face..."
A hoarse female voice was squeezed from pale lips. A scarlet light covered Tang Sui's eyes, and deep black mist surged from her body, transforming into unbreakable tentacles that ensnared Gui Mei, who was moving at high speed in the shadows.
"What?!" Gui Mei's face revealed intense shock. This black mist could actually trap him silently?!
He circulated his soul power, wanting to break free from the black mist, but found that it seemed impossible to break. No matter how many times he slashed, new mist would appear just as he was about to break free.
On the other end, after clashing with Dugu Bo, Yue Guan, unable to retract his force in time, unexpectedly met two round eyes the size of copper bells. His mind fell into slow, blank confusion, his soul power faltering. It was as if his strength was drained. The flower blades, without the enhancement of soul power, were dodged by Tang Sui.
"Cough!" Tang Sui, constantly channeling her demonic power, let out a muffled cough, but the corners of her lips curled slightly. Her eyes, flickering with red light, stared fixedly at Gui Mei, who was temporarily trapped by her in the shadows, her voice hoarse, yet with a trace of mad resolve:
"Since you won't let me live, then we all die together."
In the spiritual space, the three masks trembled, the light in their eyes gradually dimming. The dark space churned like a brewing storm, kicking up powerful waves, as if something was about to break free, but Tang Sui was completely unaware.
"Not good! This girl is going to self-destruct!"
Gui Mei, restrained by the sudden black mist, looked at the entire shadow space with horror, sensing the immense pressure and the strong sense of threat and rising soul power from Tang Sui, and shouted urgently.
"Old ghost!" Yue Guan's expression also changed drastically.
Although it was only a Soul King self-destructing, at such close range, if it hit, it would still cause significant damage to a Titled Douluo himself!
"No—! Sui Sui!"
Flander and the others, pushed back by the black mist, their eyes widened in fury. Xiao Wu's eyes also turned blood red, filled with tears. Disregarding the danger of their own exposure, relying on the protection of the Xiangsi Duanchang Hong's aura, they stumbled towards Tang Sui:
"Sui Sui, you can't—!"
"Sister—!"
Tang San's eyes were also blood red. The blue silver grass under his feet surged from the ground, tightly coiling around his ankles, preventing him from being pushed further, struggling against the black mist.
"Buzz—!"
A humming sound vibrated in their eardrums, and their brains seemed to issue a warning. Tang Sui, who was about to detonate her energy, let out a muffled groan. Her vision abruptly slowed, and she seemed to hear a light sigh, its gender indiscernible, which dispersed the energy she had gathered, sending it back into her body.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Terrify the Four Directions!"
