Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 645 Demonization, and more demonization; Lockdown (Two-in-One)

"Ugh... Ah—!!!"

Even though Beibei tried her best to save him, Xu Sanshi was still inevitably swallowed up by the entire demon totem.

Xu Sanshi's current condition is no longer visible; only a roar of extreme pain can be heard emanating from the demon totem, its voice distorted and deformed, no longer belonging to a human.

"Three stones!"

With an echoing roar, endless demonic energy surged wildly into Xu Sanshi's body within this unknown totem space. As the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield crashed to the ground with a clang, Xu Sanshi's hands gripped his chest tightly, as if he wanted to rip out his wildly mutating heart!
Beneath his skin, countless thick, purplish-black blood vessels writhed and bulged wildly like twisted earthworms! His robust body swelled and grew uncontrollably, like an inflating balloon!
At the moment the muscle fibers tore and remodeled, a chilling "crack" sound rang out, causing even the most durable clothing to rip apart like fragile pieces of paper as the body swelled.

The next second, a terrifying change occurred—

His back looked like it had been ripped open!
Two enormous, thick demonic wings, covered in jagged bone spurs and viscous black fascia, dripping with blood and shattered flesh, stretched out like two giant butcher knives, forcefully tearing open his flesh from under his shoulder blades, leaving him covered in blood!
His once square face was stretched and deformed in the violent twisting, and two curved, spiraling demonic horns with gleaming cold light protruded from the sides of his forehead! His skin quickly turned as gray and hard as rough rock, covered with cracks.

Its eyeballs seemed to explode, leaving only two wildly burning purple flames filled with endless violence and destructive desire!
"Ho...ho..."

A deep, beast-like panting breath escaped from that massive, fang-filled maw, carrying a strong smell of sulfur.

Xu Sanshi, no, at this moment he should be called the demonized Xu Sanshi, suddenly raised his head and leaped out of the totem.

Those burning demonic eyes completely ignored Beibei, who was nearby, and instantly locked their gaze on Jiang Nannan, who was also close enough to be affected by the demonic energy. There was not a trace of familiarity in those eyes, only the most primal, naked greed and desire for fresh flesh!

"Nannan! Get out of the way!"

Beibei shouted. He had just retreated to the side when he suddenly charged forward, a ring of golden light bursting forth from his body. As the golden light shone, his entire being transformed into a brilliant gold. Enveloped in the golden light, a gigantic dragon head materialized.

in an instant,
It devoured the demonized Xu Sanshi!

"boom--"

A violent roar erupted, and suddenly, a ring of golden lightning burst forth from the point of impact, spreading a sacred aura that extended for a full thirty meters.

Within this area, the air seemed to have completely transformed into a world of lightning, with countless golden bolts of lightning raging within it. Some of these bolts were even as viscous as liquid, and ball lightning was also rampaging through this world of light and thunder.

"Overlord - Thunder Domain!"

The moment the domain expanded, "You're asking for death!"

An attack powerful enough to severely injure an ordinary defensive-type Contra Douluo seemed to have a greater effect on Xu Sanshi in his demonized state, namely, enraging him. He let out a terrifying roar that shook the surrounding area, and his huge demon wings suddenly flapped, stirring up a cloud of debris, before turning to attack Beibei.

This allowed Beibei to draw Xu Sanshi's attention to her, giving Jiang Nannan a chance to catch her breath.

Even so, Jiang Nannan's situation wasn't good either; she didn't even have time to grieve for Xu Sanshi's demonization.

"Boom—" With a loud bang, Jiang Nannan, looking even more disheveled, was sent flying backward in a burst of fire.

She had just stood up and spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood when a blurry gray shadow, at the limit of her vision, with a shrill whistling sound that tore through the air, came crashing down on Jiang Nannan's head!
At the critical moment, her instinctive reaction caused Jiang Nannan's body to tilt backward as if boneless the moment the giant claw was about to strike, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow!
A sharp gust of wind from her claws grazed her nose, catching a few strands of her severed hair. Then, she swiftly flipped over, clamping her grip on the demon's neck and slamming him to the ground with a powerful blow.

But the endless stream of demonized soul masters continued to surge towards her. A tail covered in bone spurs, like a vicious steel whip, swept down from below at an incredible angle with a deafening roar, lashing fiercely at her waist and abdomen!

Jiang Nannan's pupils suddenly contracted!
The waist arches, and the body twists forcefully in mid-air.

"Shoot-"

A sickeningly sharp tearing sound rang out!
Clearly, although Jiang Nannan avoided the vital areas of her waist and abdomen, the tip of that demonic tail covered in bone spurs, with its sharp hook-like shape, still tore open the skin and flesh on the outside of her calf!
To make matters worse, just as Jiang Nannan was about to continue fighting, the power of the demon totem was fully activated, emitting a similarly viscous and filthy purplish-black light that instantly engulfed her!

"Nan Nan!"

At this moment, Beibei's heart sank to the bottom once again.

Even the blood in my body seemed to freeze instantly.

The moment Jiang Nannan reappeared, her once slender and graceful body began to undergo a terrifying transformation!

Her flexibility was twisted and amplified to an inhuman degree by this demonic energy, and her limbs twisted in reverse at angles that violated physiological structure, just like a broken stick insect.

His skin turned pale and translucent, revealing a rapidly mutating network of purplish-black blood vessels beneath. His once captivating eyes now had vertical pupils, tinged with the same frenzied purplish-black light.

Her smooth, long hair danced wildly without wind, the ends becoming like sharp steel needles! Her waist became even more slender, yet contained terrifying explosive power, making her resemble a demonized spider woman, maliciously twisted and magnified, filled with deadly intent!
"Hehehe——"

Jiang Nannan, now a demon, slowly turned her head, and the Soul Master, who had also become a demon, did the same. All eyes were focused on the sole survivor.

Join us, join the glorious evolution!

The seductive voice, coupled with the fact that two of his friends were transformed into demons one after another, made Beibei, who was trapped in the circle, realize all of this. No matter how hard he tried to calm himself down, he still couldn't maintain his composure.

"asshole!"

Beibei ignored it, only muttering a curse under her breath.

But this was like a fuse. The demonized Jiang Nannan was the first to let out a sharp, piercing screech, and her vertical pupils locked onto Beibei in an instant without any hesitation or doubt.

The reversed joints and pale bone armor-covered legs suddenly pushed off the ground, the body transforming into a phantom, forming a strangulation attack.

"boom!"

With a dull thud, Beibei blocked her attack. A flash of determination crossed her eyes, then, "Boom—"

Jiang Nannan was blasted away and, entangled in the lightning, collapsed helplessly into the ruins.

Before she could even struggle, the attacks on Beibei followed in quick succession. A single punch pierced through the pervasive tortoise shell!

Following closely behind, Xu Sanshi also followed in Jiang Nannan's footsteps.

After that, even more demons gathered, all transformed by those Soul Masters. They roared, converging into a destructive torrent, turning this neighborhood into a living hell! Firelight, thick smoke, collapsed buildings, splattered blood, severed limbs… all combined to create a scene of hell. “Roar—”

Amidst a resounding dragon's roar, a phantom of a holy dragon of light suddenly crashed into Beibei's body, then transformed into a gigantic dragon head that appeared out of thin air, exuding an aura of supreme dominance.

"The Dragon King shakes the realm!"

In the blink of an eye, a golden halo with a diameter of thirty meters appeared, completely encircling a large circle of demons.

At the very center of the halo stood the colossal dragon head, proudly suspended. Within this halo, one after another, golden holy dragons emerged. As they hovered, the demonic energy was somewhat suppressed. When these ethereal, luminous holy dragons appeared, the oppressive aura intensified to near its peak!
"hold head high--"

The central dragon head let out a long roar, as if giving the order to launch a general offensive. All the Holy Dragons of Light simultaneously launched a deadly attack. They transformed into streaks of golden lightning, dominating and crisscrossing within the golden halo. In an instant, much of the demonic energy shattered in the dragon-shaped light and lightning formed from the righteous energy of heaven and earth, and all of it concentrated its attack on Bebe.

"Boom boom boom——"

Suddenly, countless tortoise shells unfurled, transforming into massive shields in mid-air, blocking a large wave of attacks from the front and reflecting countless rays of light back. On the surface of the tortoise shells, golden light shimmered, and a demonic serpent coiled upon them, its blood-red eyes fixed on the enemy before it, as if ready to devour it.

Clearly, Xu Sanshi directly activated his Martial Soul True Form.

Amidst the long, drawn-out roar of the dragon, a giant golden dragon soared into the sky, unleashing countless lightning bolts as fierce as a prison!
Martial Soul True Form - True Form of the Holy Dragon of Light!
"Roar--"

Unparalleled majesty erupted from the Holy Dragon of Light!
"Shh-"

With a flick of its tail, it broke through the defenses.

Meanwhile, outside Lingdou City.

Tianyang Douluo and Yan Shaozhe were shocked and alert!

"Ugh—!"

Beside Xuefeng, the six top experts who had come with him also let out extremely painful screams at this moment!
They too were shrouded in totems, violently twisting and deforming in the purplish-black light. Their powerful soul energy fluctuations were instantly corrupted and mutated, their auras rising steadily, yet filled with chaos and destruction! In just a few breaths, these six Title Douluo-level powerhouses had completely degenerated into so-called demon lords!

Their varied shapes immediately made Xuefeng's expression uneasy.

However, as an emperor, he remained calm.

"Escort!"

Tianyang Douluo and Yan Shaozhe unleashed powerful soul energy fluctuations, forming a seemingly unbreakable defensive line.

However, their expressions were unusually solemn.

Especially for Tianyang Douluo:

Former comrades-in-arms have now become deadly demons!
However, Tianyang Douluo felt that this situation was reasonable. In order to achieve a breakthrough in cultivation, all six elders had sought to learn from "Ye Xishui," and it was normal for them to be attacked by a powerhouse at the limit during this process.

"Roar!!!"

The six demonized worshippers let out a deafening roar!

Their enormous bodies carried a terrifying aura of destruction, like six fallen demonic stars, as they launched a devastating charge! Even the earth cracked and demonic flames raged wherever they passed, all were reduced to dust under their violent energy impact.

But under these circumstances, Chen Junting made a move.

He didn't even leave the spot; he merely casually brushed a tiny speck of dust off his clothes and gently pointed the Seven Kill Sword downwards.

"Boom-"

A soft sound.

It was extremely slight, like a raindrop falling into an ancient well.

However, at the very moment that soft sound was emitted—

boom--! ! !
Centered on the point where the syllable landed, a terrifying force that cannot be described in words suddenly erupted!
It wasn't a fluctuation of soul power, nor an impact of energy; it was... the tremor of the rules themselves!

Time seemed to stretch out infinitely and freeze at that moment; space, like fragile glass tossed with a boulder, twisted, folded, and rippled wildly with visible force, spreading out in concentric circles of transparent ripples. Wherever the ripples passed, light was swallowed up, sound was annihilated, and even the air itself lost its meaning!
Immediately afterwards, "buzz—"

It seemed that time and space had returned to normal, but the energy they unleashed was like being thrown into an incinerator. There was no earth-shattering explosion, no blood and flesh flying everywhere, only a silent collapse!
The next second, the six demonized worshippers fell into a peaceful "sleep".

This left Tianyang Douluo and Yan Shaozhe, who had just been "rescued" from the time-space continuum and were quick to react, both delighted and surprised!

The good news was that the demon was dealt with; the bad news was that Chen Junting had resolved the problem so quickly without either of them noticing.

As for how to restore the six honored guests...

This is a big problem.

However, this was not Chen Junting's concern, and besides, he had more important matters to attend to.

"This can't go on any longer."

His gaze turned toward Lingdou City, and the moment his words fell, an indescribable sword intent, beyond mortal imagination, erupted from Chen Junting's body and soared into the sky!

"Chong-"

A sword cry, seemingly powerful enough to cleanse the soul and pierce the heavens, resounded without warning throughout the entire Lingdou City!
Immediately afterwards, as countless survivors and corrupted Soul Masters looked up, a huge array diagram swept across the sky, and from the four directions of Lingdou City—east, west, south, and north—four completely different but terrifyingly powerful sword lights slashed out!

The next second, these four seemingly world-destroying sword lights instantly converged above Lingdou City. Then, four divine swords appeared out of nowhere! Their killing intent was overwhelming, freezing everything in its path... all landing on the array diagram!
"Om-"

The moment the sword formation was fully formed, terrifying energy transformed into a barrier, while the sword intent instantly wove together into a massive three-dimensional sword net that covered the entire sky above Lingdou City!
