Chapter 197 Super Strike, Starfall (Two-in-One Chapter)

"Go and rescue them, leave this to me!"

Bone Douluo looked down at Black Firefly with a solemn expression. Even ordinary Title Douluos would find it difficult to break through his defense, but Black Firefly, a Soul Emperor, had done so. Could this be the terrifying power of a 100,000-year Soul Ring?
Bone Douluo didn't believe that a mere 100,000-year spirit ring could so significantly narrow the gap between a Soul Emperor and a Title Douluo. Therefore, there must be other reasons besides the spirit itself.

He glanced briefly at Dugu Bo and Hei Jinxi, who were also locked in fierce combat in the distant sky. Although Dugu Bo was currently in the lead, it seemed that defeating Hei Jinxi completely in the short term would not be easy.

Teleportation, time slowing, state reset, and precognition—the various bizarre abilities Hei Jinxi displayed in battle made Dugu Bo increasingly apprehensive as the fight progressed.

He was extremely frustrated at this moment, as his prized poison had no effect on Hei Jinxi, who was a being formed from negative energy.

However, his attacks could not instantly kill Hei Jinxi. As long as there was a slight gap, Hei Jinxi could reset her own state.

In terms of speed, Hei Jinxi is able to move within the gaps of time, with a speed comparable to teleportation. At the same time, she can also predict his attacks and next moves to a certain extent.

Dugu Bo had already suffered several losses because of this. Several of his attacks were predicted in advance, and he had taken several solid hits from the sword light.

The sword strikes were extremely bizarre. It seemed like he was just casually swinging his sword, but at the same time, four strikes came from different angles simultaneously, leaving him no way to dodge and forcing him to endure them.

If it weren't for his absolute advantage in soul power during this battle, he would have been instantly killed by that seemingly ordinary sword strike if it were a contest between people of the same level!

In this era, those who can break through to become Title Douluo are all the chosen ones of heaven, and who doesn't have a bit of pride in their heart?
But Dugu Bo had to admit that the little girl opposite him was far more talented than him.

If they were of the same level, he probably wouldn't even be able to see the other person's back.

Although he understood that negative energy monsters were usually stronger than the original, if this clone was so powerful, how weak could the original be?
Moreover, that 100,000-year soul ring was genuine; whatever the clone possessed, the original must also have.

He was filled with doubt and couldn't understand where such an outrageous Soul Emperor had come from, that he had been copied by this filthy point.

Dugu Bo even began to doubt whether the Douluo Continent in his memory was a fake Douluo Continent.

He had lived on this continent for so many years and had never encountered such an outrageous Soul Emperor.

Although Hei Jinxi's overall combat strength is probably only at the level of a Soul Douluo, she is really too troublesome to deal with, especially for Dugu Bo. Fighting her is even more troublesome than fighting other Title Douluos.

Just as Dugu Bo was embroiled in a fierce battle, Bone Douluo was also facing trouble.

Suddenly, a layer of fiery red markings appeared on his body.

Although this mark did not have a substantial effect on Bone Douluo at the moment, he could not remove it no matter what method he tried.

Immediately afterwards, Black Firefly leaped into the sky like a cannonball, the 100,000-year red spirit ring on her body shining brightly, and then kicked down hard at Bone Douluo.

The third soul skill, "Death Star Overload," adds a fire attribute weakness to Bone Douluo, while the sixth soul skill, "Super Break, Meteor Shower," transforms him into a meteorite, launching a devastating attack on the target.

Although he was unclear about the specific effects of the red mark on his body, Bone Douluo's mind was on high alert, and he released his Martial Soul True Form almost without thinking.

In an instant, the true form of a bone dragon, tens of meters long, appeared, its body radiating a dense black light that formed an indestructible defense.

A meteorite formed from black and red flames, trailing a string of sonic boom clouds, crashed violently into the massive bone dragon's true form with overwhelming force.

At this critical moment, the red mark on the bone dragon suddenly lit up, and the originally indestructible black soul power barrier collapsed as easily as paper.

Blackfire's kick, brimming with devastating power, landed squarely on the bone dragon without any obstruction.

In an instant, the black and red flames spread out, enveloping the bone dragon in the blink of an eye, transforming it into a fire dragon, before slamming it into the ground.

With a deafening roar, a massive shockwave rippled outwards from the point of impact, spreading for hundreds of meters in all directions, instantly raising dust and obscuring the sky.

"Uncle Bone!" Ning Fengzhi's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

In his understanding, Bone Douluo's defense was unparalleled in the world, and even Sword Douluo would find it extremely difficult to break through it.

However, what he was witnessing completely shattered his preconceived notions.

This level 95 peak Douluo, who was known for his unparalleled defense, was not only forced to reveal his Martial Soul True Form, but his defense was also broken so easily.

Compared to Ning Fengzhi's shock, Sword Douluo appeared much calmer.

Although he was equally shocked by the scene before him, he was well aware of Bone Douluo's true strength.

He understood that while Black Firefly's attack was powerful and had unexpectedly broken through Bone Douluo's defenses, it was absolutely impossible for him to seriously injure Bone Douluo.

Just as Sword Douluo had predicted, a deafening dragon roar echoed through the valley as the bone dragon vigorously flapped its enormous bone wings, stirring up a raging storm.

At the same time, sharp bone spikes suddenly rose from the ground, instantly turning an area of ​​hundreds of meters in radius into a hell of white bones.

Seeing this, Black Firefly didn't hesitate to throw a punch. The terrifyingly high-temperature flames instantly turned the place where she was standing into a pool of lava, successfully stopping the invasion of the white bone spikes.

As a killing machine formed from negative energy, she possessed astonishingly sharp intuition, instantly neutralizing Bone Douluo's fierce attack.

Moreover, her true form is a seasoned veteran with extensive combat experience.

However, even so, the huge gap in soul power strength is ultimately an insurmountable chasm.

Although she gained the upper hand and suppressed Bone Douluo for a time by using unexpected attacks and soul skills that exploited weaknesses, as long as she could not kill Bone Douluo instantly, it was only a matter of time before she was defeated once Bone Douluo regained his senses.

However, in this filthy place, what she has in abundance is companions.

Moreover, as an existence with only the instinct to kill and no intelligence, she naturally had no awareness of fighting one-on-one.

Therefore, a silver dragon spear, accompanied by a sharp whooshing sound and a sweeping airflow, arrived at the top of the giant bone dragon head in an instant, like lightning.

"Crack!" With a crisp sound of bone breaking, the Bone Douluo, who was pierced by the Silver Dragon Spear, had his hard dragon bones shatter instantly.

At the same time, he clearly felt his life force and soul power being frantically devoured by the silver dragon spear.

Fortunately, in his Martial Soul True Form state, his enormous size meant that the broken dragon bones did not have a fatal impact on him.

But this scene was already terrifying enough.

If this spear had hit his head, even though it was his most heavily guarded area, he doubted he could have withstood the power of the silver dragon spear.

Lu Jingming, who witnessed all of this from afar, couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly. The planet's will was truly extravagant, even replicating a divine artifact.

The silver dragon girl, in her Martial Soul Possession state, was surrounded by various elemental orbs of light, which spun rapidly and emitted dazzling light.

She also possesses a spirit ring configuration of two purple, three black, and one red rings, and is currently working together with Black Firefly to engage in a fierce battle with Bone Douluo.

The Silver Dragon Martial Soul is considered the pinnacle of True Dragon Martial Souls.

Although Bone Douluo's martial soul is a mutated bone dragon that can manipulate spatial power, even so, his strength was still weakened to some extent under the powerful dragon might of the silver dragon.

Under such circumstances, a dignified peak Douluo was temporarily restrained by two Soul Emperors.

Moreover, Black March 7th in the distance would occasionally fire arrows from a distance, causing the battle to reach a stalemate.

"Uncle Jian!" Ning Fengzhi frowned deeply; the situation had developed far beyond his expectations.

This tainted site is truly bizarre. The negative energy monsters that have appeared are indeed of a level that matches the strength of a newly formed tainted site. The strongest among them is only a Soul Emperor, and not even a Soul Saint has appeared.

But the fighting power they displayed was truly unbelievable.

Who could have imagined that the Soul Emperor could fight against a Title Douluo and even hold his own? This was something they never dared to even dream of before.

Sword Douluo remained inactive, but in reality, he was secretly protecting Ning Fengzhi, Xue Qinghe, and others to prevent any unexpected incidents.

Moreover, he could see from the battle that although the current situation was deadlocked, as time went on, both Dugu Bo and Bone Douluo would eventually be able to achieve victory.

However, Ning Fengzhi felt that they could not wait any longer.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda burst forth with dazzling seven-colored light, and several beams of colorful light shot out from the pagoda, landing on Poison Douluo, Bone Douluo, Sword Douluo, and Dream God Machine, among others.

As the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhiyuan is more powerful than Ning Rongrong.

He had already reached the level of a highly perceptive mind, capable of simultaneously unleashing seven soul skills on seven targets.

With the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's auxiliary soul skill, Dugu Bo felt that his soul power, mental power, and attack and defense capabilities had all increased dramatically, as if he were riding a rocket.

"Hahaha, is this the power of the number one support-type martial soul in the world? I have personally experienced it today."

Dugu Bo laughed heartily, finally experiencing the treatment that Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo usually enjoyed.

At the same time, his eighth spirit ring shone brightly, and his eighth spirit skill, "Time Freeze," was activated.

A green ripple spread rapidly outwards from him, instantly reaching Hei Jinxi.

Hei Jinxi was not afraid of this kind of control-type soul skill that touched the laws of time, after all, she herself had the ability to manipulate time.

However, Dugu Bo was well aware of this, which is why he had not used this powerful control-type soul skill before.

However, with the powerful assistance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the power of his eighth soul skill was greatly enhanced. Even Hei Jinxi, who could manipulate time, couldn't help but pause for a moment.

In that fleeting moment, Dugu Bo unhesitatingly activated his head soul bone skill—Medusa's Gaze.

A beam of petrifying light shot out like an arrow, instantly striking Hei Jinxi, whose body was stiff.

In an instant, the gray petrification patterns spread at an astonishing speed. In just a few seconds, Hei Jinxi was completely petrified and fell straight down from a height of 100 meters.

Completely petrified, Hei Jinxi fell from a height of 100 meters, and her inevitable fate was to be smashed to pieces.

Although her actual combat strength is not to be underestimated, her soul power cultivation is only at the Soul Emperor level, and her resistance to soul skills is limited. Moreover, Dugu Bo's strength has greatly increased due to the all-round amplification of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Not only did Dugu Bo benefit, but Bone Douluo's aura also surged dramatically under the blessing of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

In an instant, countless bone spikes shot out from the void like a torrential downpour, leaving Black Firefly and Black Ancient Moon powerless to resist and forced to retreat step by step.

Witnessing the reversal of the situation on the main battlefield, everyone's eyes lit up, and their morale soared like a raging fire.

In an instant, the light emanating from the spirit rings was like dazzling stars, illuminating the entire valley.

A variety of dazzling soul skills were unleashed one after another, dazzling the eyes, and a large number of black-armored soldiers were quickly wiped out in this wave of attacks.

However, unlike the group whose morale was greatly boosted, Lu Jingming's gaze was fixed on Black March 7 and Black Robin.

Others may know very little about the two's soul skills, but Lu Jingming knows them very well.

As expected, Hei Sanyueqi's fifth spirit ring shone brightly. She drew her bow and shot an arrow at the petrified Hei Jinxi.

The icy blue light arrow struck the petrified Hei Jinxi like a meteor, then transformed into specks of light and merged into her body.

In the blink of an eye, the gray petrified patterns covering Hei Jinxi receded rapidly, and she instantly broke free from the petrified state.

This is March 7's fifth soul skill, "Pure White Prayer," which can not only purify negative status effects but also provide powerful defensive capabilities.

At the same time, a celestial halo slowly appeared above the black robin's head, and a pair of pure white wings spread out behind it.

As a melodious song rang out, notes formed from condensed soul power appeared out of thin air and fell on Hei Jinxi, Hei Liuying, and the others.

The Black Robin unleashed three powerful soul skills in succession: "White Whisper of Wings," "Aria of Feathers," and "Sound of the Celestial Ring," comprehensively enhancing the attributes of her teammates. The effect was even more significant than that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Immediately afterwards, she activated her fourth soul skill, "Thousand Sounds Concerto." In an instant, the fifth soul rings on Hei Liuying and the others all turned blood red, temporarily advancing to 100,000-year soul rings.

Subsequently, the fifth soul skill "Star Fugue" was applied to Hei Guyue and the others at the same time. Their aura suddenly exploded, and their soul power cultivation increased rapidly like a rocket. They quickly broke through the barrier of Soul Saint, and each of them gained a red seventh soul ring representing the strength of Soul Saint.

Finally, the sixth soul skill, "Harmony and Praise," constructs a soul power network, tightly connecting all teammates together.

If one person consumes soul power, the other teammates in the soul power network will recover 10% of the same amount of soul power.

With the powerful assistance of the Black Robin, the entire Blackened Team successfully broke through to become Soul Saints, once again demonstrating their terrifying dominance.

Dugu Bo, who had already unleashed his Martial Soul True Form and transformed into a hundred-meter-long Azure Serpent King, was actually suppressed to the ground by the Time Dragon transformed by Hei Jinxi.

The enormous mech, wreathed in black and red flames and growing to over fifty meters in size, conjured a massive emerald green longsword in its hands. Hundreds of meters of sword light slashed down, leaving a shocking sword mark on the Bone Douluo's enormous bone dragon body under the intense heat.

The beautiful silver dragon, shrouded in black aura, still exuded a noble air despite its dark presence. Its claws gripped Bone Douluo's bone wings tightly, as if trying to tear them off.

The battle situation changed far too quickly. From Ning Fengzhi using the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to amplify Bone Douluo and others, to the Black Robin assisting Hei Jinxi and others, enabling them all to break through to the Soul Saint level and unleash their Martial Soul True Form, it only took a few minutes.

"Fengzhi, you must be careful!"

Sword Douluo could no longer sit still. After giving a hurried instruction, the Seven Kill Sword appeared in his hand, and his figure disappeared from the spot like a ghost.

The moment Sword Douluo disappeared, the white-haired boy on the black throne suddenly opened his eyes.

The Seven Killings Sword Intent condensed on the longsword as if it were a tangible substance, and the sword light instantly turned blood red, arriving in front of the Black Robin in the blink of an eye.

As a direct user of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's auxiliary effects, Sword Douluo knew very well that the reason why the situation suddenly turned unfavorable to his side was that the Black Robin was the culprit.

Therefore, his first move was aimed directly at the black robin.

After all, judging from the current situation, the Black Robin's support ability has actually surpassed Ning Fengzhi's. Although this is unbelievable, everyone has to accept this fact when they see the Poison Douluo and Bone Douluo being suppressed.

The moment the sword light flashed, Black Butterfly, who had been guarding Black Robin not far from her, suddenly opened her eyes.

Wielding a large purple scythe imbued with black energy, she unleashed a sharp purple blade of light, instantly meeting the crimson sword light head-on.

The sword light and the blade light collided fiercely, unleashing an invisible shockwave, and the figure of Sword Douluo reappeared.

Sword Douluo looked at the girl who had successfully blocked his sword, then looked down at the purple aura binding his legs, his brows furrowing tightly.

It turned out that the moment Sword Douluo approached, Black Butterfly activated her second soul skill, "Lost World Netherworld Domain," unleashing the Styx Domain, which caused Sword Douluo to be corroded by death energy, reducing all his attributes.

Within the Styx Realm, Sword Douluo clearly felt that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's enhancement effect on him had been greatly weakened.

Sword Douluo immediately transformed his fingers into a sword finger, instantly condensing a Seven Kill Sword, which he aimed at Black Butterfly, unleashing his sword intent and spreading killing intent.

But in the next instant, a black spear, crackling with black and red lightning and carrying a chilling intent to destroy everything, struck like lightning.

Sword Douluo's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly held the Seven Kill Sword horizontally in front of him.

The spear tip struck the sword precisely, and black and red lightning raged wildly. The sword intent and spear intent collided fiercely, making the surrounding space seem to freeze.

The Black Butterfly and the Black Robin moved with lightning speed, retreating swiftly and instantly moving away from the center of the collision.

With the help of the Black Robin, seven soul rings—two purple, one black, and four red—slowly appeared on Hei Lu Jingming's body.

Among them, the sixth and seventh spirit rings are particularly eye-catching, adorned with golden lightning patterns.

The four blood-red spirit rings made Sword Douluo's eyelids twitch involuntarily, and at the same time, his peripheral vision unconsciously glanced at Lu Jingming beside Ning Fengzhi in the distance.

"Brother Lu, aren't you a swordsman?"

Xue Qinghe looked at Lu Jingming beside him with a strange expression as he watched Lu Jingming, who was wielding a black spear and whose body was wrapped in black and red lightning, clashing fiercely with Sword Douluo.

"I do practice swordsmanship, but I never said my martial spirit is a sword." Lu Jingming helplessly spread his hands, looking completely innocent.

He has indeed been practicing swordsmanship, but who says that the martial spirit of a swordsman must be a sword?

"Brother Lu has truly given me so many unexpected surprises!"

Xue Qinghe turned his gaze back to the battlefield, staring intently at the peculiar 100,000-year soul ring on Hei Lu Jingming's body, especially the golden lightning pattern, his expression shifting constantly.

As a descendant of the Angel God and possessing a divinely bestowed martial soul, Xue Qinghe knows many secrets unknown to others.

For example, when a Soul Master reaches level 100 and becomes a god, their tenth Soul Ring becomes a God Ring, and its color is gold.

Upon seeing the peculiar spirit ring on Hei Lu Jingming's body, the first thing that came to his mind was the divine ring.

However, he quickly dismissed the idea, since if it were truly a divine ring, Sword Douluo would have no chance of blocking that shot.

Therefore, he guessed that the power behind Lu Jingming, like the Spirit Hall, possessed divine inheritance.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain this unusual soul ring configuration and those peculiar soul rings.

Moreover, he could deduce that everyone who appeared at this filthy spot was very likely Lu Jingming's companion.

After all, a clone of Ning Fengzhi had appeared at that filthy spot in the Star Luo Empire, centered around Sword Douluo.

Given the precedent, Xue Qinghe wasn't the only one who could guess this; Ning Fengzhi was also aware of it.

Meanwhile, based on the auxiliary abilities shown by the Black Robin, they further deduced that Lu Jingming's true soul ring configuration should be two purple, two black, and two red.

This undoubtedly further solidified Xue Qinghe's guess that the forces behind Lu Jingming, like the Spirit Hall and Seagod Island, were supported by deities.

Otherwise, without the existence of gods, he would find it hard to imagine how Lu Jingming could absorb a soul ring beyond his level. Even he, with his innate level 20 soul power, divinely bestowed martial soul, and countless rare and precious materials from the Martial Soul Hall, had not absorbed a soul ring beyond his level.

Of course, he doesn't need to. As long as he starts the Divine Trial, his Soul Ring configuration will naturally improve. There's no need to risk absorbing Soul Rings that are above his level.

"Brother Lu, in your opinion, what should we do next?"

Xue Qinghe frowned slightly and turned his gaze to Lu Jingming.

Since this is a clone of Lu Jingming himself, he must be very familiar with the current strength of Black Lu Jingming.

Lu Jingming gently stroked his chin, making no attempt to hide anything, and said frankly, "Sword Douluo's strength is extraordinary. Under the suppression of his soul power cultivation, he is strong enough to defeat that version of me, but it would be difficult for him to completely kill 'me'."
