……

However, just as she continued to glide over the two connected stone roofs, a burly figure suddenly rose up from below without warning and landed in front of her!

She recognized the person who came; it was Gu Yuanchao, the steward of the Chen family who had visited the warehouse courtyard during the day. Beneath his feet, a deep black ten-thousand-year soul ring shone brightly.

"Fifth Soul Skill: Giant Horn!"

Gu Yuanchao roared, his fists clenched, and earthy yellow and dark gold light instantly condensed, transforming into a huge, solid bull horn phantom that plowed through the air and crashed straight in with a heavy sense of oppression!

Qingluo's pupils contracted slightly.

This is the core attack technique of the Gu Family's Steel Bone Bull Technique.

This move is extremely powerful, and the more phantom parts it creates by charging up, the greater its range and destructive power.

Although Gu Yuanchao didn't have time to gather his strength, as a level 69 Soul Emperor and a beast spirit with earth and metal attributes known for its power, the penetrating and impactful force of this attack was still terrifying.

Wherever the phantom of the bull's horn passed, the air was forcibly pushed aside, forming visible ripples of air.

There is no way to avoid it!

Qingluo's left leg instantly glowed with the light of her soul bone, "Left Leg Bone Technique: Thousand Edges and Ten Thousand Shields!"

A dark green vortex emerged beneath his feet, from which countless fine, sharp spider legs formed dark green energy spikes that split and shot out, then rapidly swirled around his body, forming a thick shield covered in spikes that rotated at high speed.

boom!
The giant horn crashed violently against the thousands of sharp blades and shields!

A piercing tearing sound and an energy explosion rang out simultaneously. The rotating shield successfully blocked most of the impact, and the dark green spikes broke and flew apart upon impact.

However, pure brute force is precisely the strength of the Steel-Bone Bull, not to mention that Gu Yuanchao's soul power is six levels higher than Qingluo's.

What's more troublesome is that the "Mountain Collapse" effect of the giant horn has extra destructive power against shield-type defenses. The violent shockwave generated after the impact passes through the shield and slams hard into Qingluo's body.

Crack! The shield was finally shattered.

As if struck by a battering ram, Qingluo was sent flying more than ten meters away, crashing heavily onto the hard stone roof. A sweet taste rose in her throat, and she couldn't help but spill a trickle of blood.

If the stone structure of Ironjaw Fort hadn't been so sturdy, this blow would likely have smashed through the roof.

She endured the excruciating pain, rolled over, and leaped up. Gu Yuanchao's burly body was already charging towards her head, his momentum fierce.

A fierce glint flashed in Qingluo's eyes, and her sixth spirit ring suddenly shone with a blinding light. "Sixth Spirit Skill - Spear of No Return!"

Her arms instantly transformed into two thick, menacing dark green spider spears, which then abruptly merged together, their tips condensing into a chilling, eerie light. Like a venomous dragon emerging from its lair, they shot towards Gu Yuanchao's chest with a piercing whistling sound and immense penetrating power!
This spear contains her strongest single-target destructive power, confident that it can penetrate any defense below level 60, and also has a huge destructive effect on Soul Emperors.

Faced with this fatal blow, Gu Yuanchao's expression turned solemn, and he shouted, "Sixth Soul Skill - Holy Radiance Steel Body!"

He activated the power of his spirit rings, and a layer of solid, dark silver light, like liquid metal, instantly covered his entire body.

puff!

The spear of no return pierced fiercely against the ever-flowing dark silver light.

The expected penetration did not occur. The dark green light at the tip of the spear melted away the moment it came into contact with the holy silver light, like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun, making a "sizzling" sound as it was continuously eroded and weakened.

Gu Yuanchao's body trembled violently. He groaned and took only three steps back before regaining his footing.

The holy steel body shimmered with light, though slightly dimmed, it successfully blocked the spear that was powerful enough to break through the defenses of the same level!
This was no ordinary defensive soul skill, but rather a combination of the [Moonlight Divine Light] talent skill he gained from absorbing a 40,000-year-old Howling Moon Silver Wolf soul ring, which transcended his own level, and the Steel-Bone Wild Bull. His 40,000-year soul power had reached the Soul Saint level. The Holy Radiance Steel Body not only granted Gu Yuanchao extremely powerful physical and energy defense, but also slightly enhanced his strength and defense.

More importantly, the mysterious runes flowing on its surface exude a pure and holy aura, which has a powerful effect of dispelling and weakening all negative statuses (such as poisoning, burning, slowing, curses, mental interference, etc.), and has a strong repulsive and dissolving effect on the dark, evil, and filthy energy it comes into contact with!
Qingluo's soul power attributes—poisonous, cold, and filthy—are perfectly countered by this "purification" attribute!
Qingluo's heart sank, and she cursed inwardly: "Purify attributes!"

Her most effective poison and mental attacks were greatly diminished in the face of this layer of defense.

It was just bad luck for her today; both the Fierce Ghost Golden Sheep Soul Saint and the Soul Emperor's sixth soul skill were quite effective against her abilities.

A direct confrontation is not the best strategy; we must escape immediately!
With Gu Yuanchao blocking his way, charging forward would be tantamount to suicide.

The street is to the right. We were forced to jump onto the roof from the ground just now, and it would be even more dangerous to go down now.

Qingluo's eyes swept across the area, and taking advantage of Gu Yuanchao's unsteady footing, she leaped to the left without hesitation, her spider silk shooting precisely in that direction—the kitchen courtyard filled with the mixed smells of food and garbage.

Her slender figure traced an arc in the air before quickly disappearing into the shadows of the kitchen courtyard.

Gu Yuanchao steadied himself, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. Without hesitation, he leaped off the roof. The kitchen area was mostly filled with menial workers who had little fighting ability, and he knew the situation was critical.

Its heavy body crashed onto the stone floor of the kitchen courtyard, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Several small spiders nearby immediately sensed the new threat, hissed, turned around, and launched an attack, their mouthparts dripping corrosive saliva.

The courtyard was in complete chaos.

Because there were many people, they cooked on a large stove. The huge kitchen was filled with a strong, pungent smell. The aroma of burnt oil, the sour smell of fermenting leftovers, and the stench of accumulated waste mixed together, making people nauseous.

The men who were busy working in the middle of the night (most of whom were originally kitchen helpers in the bone-digging team) were terrified by the sudden influx of small spiders. They screamed, shoved, and desperately scurried into the corners and behind the stove.

These demonic spiders possess single-target attack power comparable to a Great Soul Master, posing a deadly threat to ordinary people.

The two Soul King-level chefs in charge of the kitchen reacted quickly and stepped forward:

Xin Shouyi let out a low shout, and his martial spirit manifested, revealing the martial spirit of the Master of Seasoning.

He pressed his hands down as if to release a burst of soul power: "Third Soul Skill - Five Flavors Barrier!"

An invisible yet substantial wave instantly spread out, forming an energy barrier that distorted the air in front of him.

This barrier is not only sturdy, but also exudes an extremely complex and intense mixture of spicy, fragrant, sour, sweet, and salty aromas, like a smoke bomb.

The small spiders that pounced on the barrier or were overwhelmed by the intense aura caused them to freeze, stagger like drunkards, and their attack rhythm to become chaotic.

Mai Zheling followed closely behind, his wheat-themed martial spirit radiating light: "Fourth Soul Skill - Wheat Ram Shooting!"

With a flick of his arms, countless tiny golden needles of wheat shoot out from his martial spirit, covering a large area in front of him.

These wheat awns were not only sharp, but also carried a peculiar, heavy feeling of "harvest," like a dense barrage of miniature javelins.

The piercing sounds were incessant; the small spiders that were hit shattered their carapaces, splattered dark green juice, and their mobility was greatly reduced or they died instantly.

The two worked in perfect harmony, using their soul skills to clear away the spider demons that were getting close to the servants while loudly commanding, "Soul Masters and above, form a defensive formation! Protect the ordinary people!"

The scattered members of the Chen family, along with a few low-level Soul Masters, Soul Venerables, and Soul Sect Masters from the original Bone-Digging Team, also reacted. They summoned their Martial Souls and released Soul Skills, either attacking from a distance or intercepting at close range, desperately resisting the impact of the spider swarm and trying to rescue the panicked kitchen staff.
