Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 606 The Last Stand (Part 2)

"Om-"

An ice sword, carrying an eerie silence, hurtled forth!

"when--"

Gu Tianchen raised the bone dragon's defenses to block it.

It turns out that the ice sword jointly created by Huo Yuhao and Ji Juechen was directly suppressed by a "Sword Intent of Absolute Immortals" and, to some extent, "took over by others," only to be returned by Chen Junting!

Now, that incense stick has burned down to one-third of its original size. The smoke remains, but time relentlessly flows on.

But this rate of loss is not satisfactory to them.

"This can't go on like this!"

Aside from Wu Feng, Ma Xiaotao has the most fiery personality.

We must find a way to break through his aura!

She let out a delicate shout, and her ninth spirit ring suddenly lit up!

In her opinion, only the strongest soul skill would suffice.

"Phoenix Rebirth!"

Beneath the crimson hue, the red flames instantly subsided. The previously exploding phoenix flames rapidly receded, coalescing behind her and transforming into a lifelike fiery phoenix, which then slammed fiercely into the sword circle with unstoppable momentum.

This move is her strongest single-target attack soul skill.

It contains terrifying destructive power!

Her actions seemed to have flipped a switch.

Without hesitation, Ye Guyi activated her own ninth spirit ring, "Ninth Spirit Skill - Descent of the Angel God!"

In an instant, endless light gathered behind her.

With the flapping of six wings, a phantom figure slowly appeared. Though its face was unseen, it was a sacred woman.

Ye Guyi and the illusory figure behind her clenched their hands, and a giant light sword formed from pure light appeared above their heads, carrying the majesty of judging all evil, and slashed down at Chen Junting amidst the cry of a phoenix.

"Add me!"

As a fellow Title Douluo, Gu Tianchen was equally unwilling to be outdone.

The bone dragon let out a deafening roar. Although it could not use its ninth soul skill, its eighth soul skill was not bad for it.

A surge of ethereal spatial energy gathered between the bone dragon's upper and lower jaws, coalescing into a sphere of light in the blink of an eye. Then, "Eighth Soul Skill—Dragon King's Dimensional Strike!"

The others were on high alert, with Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er even holding hands, ready to use their Martial Soul Fusion Technique at any moment.

As three Title Douluos, whose strength was comparable to that of a Super Douluo, simultaneously unleashed their powerful soul skills, the resulting aura was so overwhelming that the space of the entire arena began to distort slightly.

Chen Junting's eyes narrowed instantly. Then, he stepped out of the sword circle, and the rampant soul power surged like rolling lava. The sword intent emanating from his body seemed to transform into seven killing swords soaring into the sky, forming vortexes and tornadoes that circled around him.

The next second, the immense soul power transformed into four longswords.

Suddenly, four arms emerged from the void, and the phantom of a giant demon appeared behind Chen Junting. Its stature was no less than that of the angelic phantom behind Ye Guyi.

Immediately following, "Seven Killing Thunder Rise, One Sword Pierces the Sky."

诛、戮、绝、陷。

The four sword intents seemed to materialize, instantly enveloping the four Seven Kill Swords in the troll's hands. The sword energy, condensed to its extreme, burst forth from the tips of the four Seven Kill Swords, two of which met Gu Tianchen's "Dragon King's Other Dimension" head-on. There was no dazzling brilliance, only pure sharpness. The two terrifying forces collided in mid-air, and the spatial sphere formed from spatial energy was directly sliced ​​into four pieces by the sharpest swords, the Slaughter Sword and the Annihilation Sword.

Then it flew behind Chen Junting, "Boom—"

It finally exploded!

The Absolute Sword met Ma Xiaotao's fiery phoenix head-on, unleashing a deathly chill. The fiery phoenix could only let out a mournful cry before being cleaved in two by the sword energy. The remaining sword energy, still powerful, grazed Ma Xiaotao's shoulder, leaving a trail of blood. Ma Xiaotao groaned, her face instantly turning pale.

The final, unleashed sword strike was like a raging river, or a dense forest… a myriad of forms, indistinguishable, like a panorama of nature, seemingly a direct challenge to judgment. Ye Guyi's Angelic Judgment Sword, before that sword energy, seemed like fragile glass, shattering inch by inch into countless points of light. She herself was also affected, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

"So powerful! Is this what a powerhouse at the pinnacle level looks like?"

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao and the others felt a heavy weight in their hearts. Each of their soul skills was enough to make opponents of the same level flustered, but they seemed so vulnerable in front of Chen Junting.

And it's important to know that this wasn't his full strength.

In fact, it's only 50%.

"continue!"

Huo Yuhao's voice echoed in everyone's minds, "Since you're not going to die anyway, just train like crazy! Don't worry about failing!"

Under his unified command, everyone took action once again.

He Caitou's soul-guided cannons began a barrage of attacks, unable to break through the sword circle, but the continuous explosions and impacts did cause some disruption to its stability. Dugu Xin's poison mist had a wider range, attempting to penetrate from all directions. Wu Feng and Bei Bei, on the other hand, roamed the perimeter, looking for openings in Chen Junting's attacks to launch harassing attacks and buy him time.

Ji Juechen's fighting spirit only intensified, his sword becoming one with his heartbeat. He continuously unleashed his meticulously honed sword techniques, each strike simple and direct, yet imbued with his understanding of the way of the sword. He was attempting to learn the essence of swordsmanship from Chen Junting.

Compared to before, he now seems more like he's seeking advice.

Xiao Xiao's flute playing became more urgent, attempting to combine the sonic attack of the Nine Phoenixes' Auspicious Arrival Flute with Huo Yuhao's mental power, trying to generate a stronger mental impact. The Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, meanwhile, constantly changed position, suppressing the attack from different angles.

Wang Dong'er's Goddess of Light butterfly danced gracefully, and she even had a flash of inspiration to use the power of the Sea God's Light to fight back.

Huo Yuhao's mental energy was highly concentrated, and he pushed his Spirit Eye Martial Soul to its limit. The shared mental detection made everyone's perceptions one, and mental interference was continuously applied. At the same time, he began to attempt to construct a more advanced illusion, trying to create false attack points in Chen Junting's perception, or distort the real attack trajectories of his companions, in order to achieve a surprise victory.

The battle appears to have entered a heated phase.

Of course, that's not actually the case.

Since there was still enough time, he decided to adopt a mentoring attitude, letting everyone use him as a "punching bag" for practice.

Chen Junting stood still, his feet barely moving an inch. His Seven Kill Sword moved with agile thrusts and heavy slashes, each movement perfectly natural, possessing a terrifying power that simplified complexity and struck at the heart of the matter.

Even so, it caused everyone great suffering. A sword light of extreme speed pierced through a specially made armor-piercing bullet that He Caitou had just fired, leaving several afterimages in the air as it struck Wu Feng and Bei Bei's attacks.

The two only felt a blur before their eyes before their attack collapsed.

Even worse, all that remained was a tightness in my chest.

Time ticked by, and the incense stick had burned quite a bit. It looked like there were only ten minutes left.

However, under the continuous, all-out attacks, everyone's soul power was greatly depleted, especially those who had not yet condensed their soul cores. As a result, most of the eleven people were pale and their breathing had become heavy.

As for wanting to use a baby bottle to restore soul power...

That requires a chance to recover.

"This won't do; our soul power can't hold up anymore."

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Bei Bei's forehead as she turned to look at Huo Yuhao, who had been forced back by Chen Junting's sword. The strength of a peak-level expert, even if he was only using about 50% of his combat power, far exceeded their expectations.

If this continues,
They definitely won't last until the incense stick burns out.

We must find a way!
[Yuhao, let's use our Soul Fusion Technique!]

At this moment, using the Soul Skill of Spirit Sharing, Wang Dong'er's thoughts echoed in everyone's ears. Because this was probably the only method that could threaten Brother Junting.

However, Huo Yuhao rejected this idea.

No, while the power of the Martial Soul Fusion Technique might work, Brother Junting can definitely dodge it. Even in a direct confrontation, we're no match. Unless…

[Unless we can block the Golden Road first!]

Although the Golden Path is powerful, and the old man in the last test of the fifth trial was able to block it by relying on his special soul skill, everyone knows the Golden Path's weakness. Compared to the other three martial soul fusion skills, the Golden Path is a straight-line attack and lacks flexibility. Even moving one step to the side can avoid it.

Leave this to us!

Beibei took a deep breath, a resolute glint in her eyes.

Everyone knows that conventional tactics are no longer effective.

We must take a risky gamble!

[Yuhao, how long will it take?]

Three breaths!

【it is good! 】

In a shared mental connection, Beibei decisively gave the order: "Xiaotao, Xiaofeng, let's prepare our strongest attack, utilizing the explosive and ferocious power of our lightning and fire attributes! Guyi, you further enhance the power of their flames. As for the rest of you, provide full cover for Yuhao and Dong'er, buying them three breaths of time!"

Ma Xiaotao and Wu Feng exchanged a glance and immediately nodded.

The next moment, the two of them shouted at the same time, and their soul power exploded without reservation, and their seventh soul rings shone brightly.

"Seventh Soul Skill - True Form of the Fire Phoenix!"

"Seventh Soul Skill - Crimson Flame Dragon King True Form!"

With two deafening roars, Ma Xiaotao transformed into a gigantic golden-red fire phoenix with a wingspan exceeding twenty meters, while Wu Feng transformed into a ferocious crimson fire dragon nearly thirty meters long. The two intensely hot forces intertwined, forming a terrifying heat wave that swept towards Chen Junting.

Immediately afterward, Wu Feng's domain expanded in full force!

Crimson Dragon Burst Domain!

As she transformed into her Martial Soul True Form, the Crimson Flame Dragon King's head suddenly rose up, unleashing a deafening dragon roar, and a crimson halo instantly spread out.

In an instant, everything within its range turned crimson red, spreading out below like magma. The expansion of this domain also caused Ma Xiaotao's fire attribute to surge, transforming her into the same extreme fire as Wu Feng!
At the same time, BeiBei's entire body was crackling with lightning!

"Seventh Soul Skill - True Form of the Holy Dragon of Light!"

"Roar--"

A resounding dragon roar echoed from Beibei's mouth. Then, with a flick of its body, it transformed into a white dragon radiating intense golden light and soared between the red dragon and the fire phoenix.

"drink!"

Upon seeing this, Ye Guyi immediately let out a soft shout!
"Seventh Soul Skill - Angelic True Form!"

A dazzling golden light, along with the magnificent golden shadow behind her, erupted simultaneously, unleashing a powerful and divine pressure. Amidst the brilliant golden light, the illusory figure behind Ye Guyi silently moved forward, and she herself swiftly merged with that figure, her entire being, including her skin and hair, being bathed in pure gold. Even her clothes vanished in the golden light. A dazzling golden flame enveloped her body, making her appear like a celestial being. Even her other eight spirit rings were transformed into gold at this moment.

On the two pairs of pure white wings behind the leaf-bone cypress, gold spreads from the roots all the way to the tip of each feather.

With a "rip" sound, another pair of wings opened from his back, and the true form of the six-winged angel was fully revealed under the effect of the seventh soul ring martial soul true body.

Ye Guyi's aura suddenly swelled up like an overwhelming force, fully demonstrating the power and confidence of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul from ten thousand years ago!

Then,

"Angel Realm, open!"

Instantly, rings of golden light, accompanied by strange and beautiful sounds, enveloped Chen Junting. And at the moment they overlapped with the Crimson Dragon's Burst Domain, everything around them became hazy and golden, even their own bodies were bathed in a golden glow.

At that moment, Wu Feng and Ma Xiaotao unleashed their full power.

"Ninth Soul Skill - Phoenix Rebirth!"

"Eighth Soul Skill - Dragon King Hellfire!"

Immediately following, Ye Guyi also used another soul skill from her ninth soul ring, "Ninth Soul Skill - Angelic Sun Flame!"

Golden-red and dark-red flames rapidly intertwined, and the fire phoenix and fire dragon merged into one, transforming into azure flames that directly distorted the surrounding air, even causing spiderweb-like cracks to instantly spread around them. Furthermore, under the blessing of Ye Guyi's solar holy fire and holy light, endless light and heat burst forth!
Like the sun, it ignites completely at this moment!
Immediately following, a ring of golden lightning erupted from Beibei's center, transforming the air into a world of lightning, with countless golden bolts raging within; some bolts were even as viscous as liquid, and some even contained ball lightning. Endless, violent lightning, a symbol of divine punishment, like billions of lightning serpents breaking free of their cages, began to surge wildly in all directions!
"Rumble--"

Thunder and fire,
Two of the most violent, primal, uncontrollable, and explosive plasmas in nature merged into one in an instant, and a blazing white sphere of incalculable diameter, composed of pure destructive energy, began to expand wildly at an unimaginable speed!

The light swallowed all colors.
The sound was replaced by an absolute roar.

The next second, "BOOM—"
