Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 336 Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er

After tearing through the silver spatial shield, the dark golden claw light formed by the Sky-Rending Claw was almost unimpeded, still carrying a terrifying and despair-inducing power, and went straight for Xian Lin'er's vital heart.

"The true form of the Black Dragon Shield!"

Qian Duoduo's eyes were bloodshot, and his roar was filled with anxiety and determination.

Without hesitation, he activated a precious ring engraved with spatial runes on his finger—a short-range teleportation soul tool.

A pale blue light flashed by, and Qian Duoduo's figure vanished instantly, only to reappear before Xian Lin'er without hesitation the next moment.

His martial spirit, the Black Dragon Shield, erupted with unprecedented dark light, suddenly growing to tens of meters high, transforming into a massive metal shield engraved with ancient dragon patterns and as heavy as a mountain, tightly protecting him and Xian Lin'er behind him.

The shield's surface shimmered with a dark light, and the dragon patterns seemed to come alive, emitting a deep roar—this was the true form of his weapon spirit.

"Clang—!!!!!!!!!"

A deafening metallic explosion resounded through the sky. The sound was sharp and piercing, like thousands of giant blades scraping against the heart at the same time. All the Soul Masters around covered their ears in pain, and their Soul Power circulation was momentarily halted.

The golden claw-like light collided violently with the massive black dragon shield.

An invisible shockwave spread out suddenly like a ring of destruction, tearing the ground beneath their feet into a deep trench several meters deep, and even causing bricks and stones to fall from the sturdy crenellations of the distant city wall.

"Ugh—!"

Qian Duoduo braced his arms against the back of the giant shield, his feet sinking deep into the ground up to his knees like nails, his entire body groaning under the strain, the muscles in his arms trembling violently, the veins bulging like dragons, and his face turning deathly pale in an instant, devoid of any color.

He could clearly feel how violent and irresistible the power transmitted through the Black Dragon Shield was; the power of the Sky-Tearing Claw was like the weight of a mountain, pressing down fiercely.

The seemingly indestructible surface of the Black Dragon Shield was now cracking with a chilling sound, and fine cracks were spreading wildly like a spider web from the point of impact of the claw strike.

"Click... click..."

The sound of metal breaking under the strain was clearly audible to everyone. The cracks on the Black Dragon Shield grew more numerous and deeper, and the dark light dimmed rapidly, as if it would completely disintegrate into countless fragments in the next second.

"puff--!"

Qian Duoduo suddenly spat out a mouthful of scalding blood. His Martial Soul True Body had suffered such a severe injury that his soul, as its master, seemed to be torn apart, and he suffered an extremely serious backlash.

But his bloodshot eyes were fixed on the front, his knees bent to the limit yet he still stood stubbornly, using his trembling body and his shattering martial spirit to protect Xian Lin'er behind him.

He knew better than anyone that once he fell, the people behind him would be completely exposed to Xiong Jun's claws, which were capable of tearing everything apart.

From Xiong Jun's sudden attack to Qian Duoduo throwing out his soul tool, teleporting, and activating his martial soul true form to block Xian Lin'er, everything happened so fast that it even surpassed the thinking speed of most people, happening in the blink of an eye.

“Duoduo!”

It wasn't until the warm blood splattered on her cheek that Xian Lin'er snapped out of her shock.

Seeing Qian Duoduo's broad yet swaying back, coughing up blood yet still desperately shielding her, her eyes instantly turned red. A heart-wrenching pain and overwhelming rage instantly overwhelmed her reason.

Without the slightest hesitation, the spear in her hand was suddenly enveloped by a blue gale—her martial soul was named Azure Flame Dragon, but it was actually a mutated wind-attribute martial soul.

When wind-attribute power is compressed to its extreme, it will generate intense friction with the air, forming a unique cyan flame.

A violent hurricane appeared out of nowhere, emitting a sharp howl. The extremely compressed wind-attribute soul power rubbed violently against the air, bursting out with that unique, leaping blue flame.

Although this azure flame is not as domineering and unparalleled as the withering power contained in Lu Jingming's Black Abyss White Flower, it also possesses the characteristic of decomposition. Any object that comes into contact with it will be torn apart and dissolved into the most primitive particles in an instant by the violent wind and flame.

"Azure Flame - Dragon Break!"

Xian Lin'er let out a soft shout and, with all her might, hurled her spear, which was completely enveloped in extremely dense blue flames, at the tall, dark gold terror bear.

She knew that she had no chance of directly withstanding Xiong Jun's Sky-Tearing Claws; her only chance of survival was to relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao.

If we can make Xiong Jun feel a fatal threat, forcing him to defend or dodge, we can give Qian Duoduo a chance to survive.

The spear that had left his hand seemed to be imbued with life and will, its azure flames surging and stretching wildly, instantly transforming into a lifelike, roaring azure flame dragon.

Wherever the dragon passed, the ground was scorched and melted by the terrifying high temperature and decomposing power, leaving a shocking black ravine. The low-level soul beasts that were unfortunately slightly affected by the aftershocks of the azure flames along the way did not even have time to utter a complete scream before they were instantly engulfed in raging azure flames and turned into ashes in an instant.

However, at that crucial moment that determined life and death— "Boom—!"

Without warning, the ground trembled violently and cracked, with broken rocks and soil gushing upwards like a fountain.

Immediately afterwards, countless ancient tree trunks, strangely bluish-black in color, incredibly thick and twisted, emerged wildly from the ground like tentacles from hell.

The tree trunks are covered with wrinkles like aged skin, and are entwined with countless dark green vines that exude an ominous aura. They dance wildly in the air, emitting a nauseating stench.

These bizarre tree roots intertwined, entangled, and merged at an illogical speed, eventually coalescing into a dark blue-green wooden giant over thirty meters tall, radiating malice.

The giant's torso was forcibly twisted together from dozens of the thickest tree trunks, and its limbs were as thick and powerful as the gnarled branches of an ancient tree. But what was most terrifying was that its head and massive torso were covered with hundreds of scarlet, malevolent eyes, one after another.

Each eyeball moved independently and eerily, locked onto Xian Lin'er and the Azure Flame Dragon she had thrown.

This is the Demon Eye Tree, ranked fifth among the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts—the King of Ten Thousand Demons.

He was already extremely skilled at manipulating forest plants and concealing his own aura. When he saw Xian Lin'er's all-out attack aimed directly at Xiong Jun's vitals, he immediately appeared from his hiding place, his incredibly thick right arm suddenly spreading out.

The hand was actually made of dozens of venomous python-like vines twisted and woven together, and in the very center of the palm was a scarlet eye the size of a basketball, radiating intense spiritual energy.

This terrifying giant hand, accompanied by a howling wind that ripped through eardrums, slammed precisely towards the unstoppable Azure Flame Flood Dragon.

He wanted to completely extinguish any hope of human resistance, leaving Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er no chance to catch their breath.

"Humans, today is your end. Feel the burning of hellfire."

The three-headed Crimson Demon King's ferocious roars exploded almost simultaneously.

His three ferocious heads were aimed at the area on the city wall where the Soul Masters were most concentrated. His blood-red maws opened, and three pillars of crimson hellfire, powerful enough to melt fine gold, spewed out.

Although the flames had not reached their ultimate level, they were already very close. The terrifying high temperature distorted the air into layers of ripples. The three pillars of fire suddenly converged in mid-air, merging into a terrifying pillar of fire that was much larger and turned golden in color, and then blasted towards the defenders on the city wall.

Wherever the pillar of fire passed, it left behind a pungent stench of sulfur and burnt flesh. Even from a great distance, the scorching heat waves caused the soldiers on the city walls to feel waves of burning pain on their skin.

"Struggling like ants, die, foolish humans."

A cruel and contemptuous sneer appeared on Xiong Jun's face, which was covered with hideous fur. He completely ignored the Azure Flame Flood Dragon that posed a threat to him.

He had absolute confidence in the strength of the Demon King.

At this moment, his only thought was to use the most violent and crushing method to completely erase this human titled Douluo who had repeatedly gotten in his way, along with his annoying shield, from this world.

The dark golden claws rose high once more, and a more violent and condensed tearing energy, even more intense than the previous strike, gathered wildly at the claw tips. The air was easily torn apart by the extreme sharpness, emitting a teeth-grinding "hissing" sound, as if even the spatial structure itself was groaning under this power.

The dark gold claw, tens of meters long, carrying an absolute sharpness that could slay gods and demons and was indestructible, tore through the atmosphere once again like a reaping scythe wielded by the Grim Reaper. With terrifying speed, it slashed fiercely at Qian Duoduo's already cracked and dimmed Wulong Shield.

"puff--!"

Qian Duoduo's body shuddered violently, and he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs. His face, which had been flushed from exertion, turned deathly pale in an instant, devoid of any color.

He used the last of his remaining soul power to frantically pour it into the shattering Wulong Shield, attempting a final struggle.

However, this spirit shield that had accompanied him throughout his life and gone through countless battles was as fragile as a delicate glass work of art in the face of Xiong Jun's second Sky-Tearing Claw, unleashed in anger.

"Crack... Boom!"

The piercing sound of shattering metal clearly reached every corner of the battlefield.

The Black Dragon Shield could no longer withstand this destructive power and shattered into countless metal fragments that shimmered with a dim black light, scattering in all directions.

The terrifying claws that tore everything apart shattered the shield without the slightest hesitation, piercing straight through Qian Duoduo's chest, which had lost all its protection, like a red-hot iron piercing through thin ice.

The dark gold claw light, its power undiminished, continued its mad dash forward, finally slamming into Shrek City's massive protective shield.

"BOOM—!!!!!!!!!"

A deafening roar, as if the heavens and earth were collapsing, suddenly erupted and swept across the entire battlefield.
