Douluo Continent: The Underworld Emperor Halosa Lets Three Fly

Chapter 74 Heavenly Phoenix Leng Yaozhu (Part 1)

She was an exceptionally beautiful woman. She wore a perfectly tailored, fiery red gown embroidered with intricate phoenix patterns in gold thread, exuding elegance and nobility.

Wearing an exquisite phoenix crown inlaid with crimson gemstones, she exuded even greater majesty. Behind her, a colossal phantom of a celestial phoenix, composed entirely of flames, soared and circled, radiating a chilling heat and overwhelming pressure!

Her long, beautiful legs were faintly visible under the red high heels, but no one had time to appreciate her sexiness at the moment, because the aura emanating from her body was that of a level 98 Super Douluo at the peak!

Moreover, she was covered by a set of four-word battle armor that was dazzling and engraved with phoenix totems, which pushed her already powerful aura to a terrifying level that was enough to rival a true Limit Douluo!

This person is none other than Leng Yaozhu, the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda and the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo!

She was ordered by the tower master to inspect the Star Luo Empire branch when she received intelligence about "the suspected Spirit Pagoda colluding with evil soul masters to attack the Tang Sect stronghold." She immediately led a team to track them down.

This kind of news is no small matter; if it spreads, it will have a huge impact on the situation on the mainland, instantly dragging three forces down with them. Therefore, it must be thoroughly investigated.

Leng Yaozhu hovered in the air, her phoenix eyes flashing like lightning, fixed on the seemingly inconspicuous little skeleton at the center of the protective barrier. Her eyes were filled with surprise and solemnity.

"The aura of a Limit Douluo-level expert, yet so—rigid?" she muttered to herself.

From the moment the skeleton appeared and instantly killed two of her Soul Douluo subordinates, she keenly sensed something was amiss.

This skeleton's power level had definitely reached the limit, and its defense was ridiculously strong, withstanding several rounds of saturation bombardment from her Soul Master Corps.

However, its fighting style is too primitive! It only knows how to passively defend, its attack methods are limited, and it only occasionally unleashes a powerful but straightforward gray-white sword aura. It lacks real combat wisdom and adaptability, just like a puppet with brute force!

"Test it!" Leng Yaozhu decisively gave the order.

Upon receiving the order, the Spirit Pagoda Soul Masters instantly changed their attack method. Instead of overwhelming the enemy, they switched to precise, targeted fire and disruption!

Several slender soul-guided rays, imbued with strong vibrations and energy interference, were precisely aimed at different nodes of the shield! At the same time, several high-speed armor-piercing projectiles shot at the joints of the little skeleton from tricky angles!

The soul fire in the little skeleton's eye sockets flickered violently, as if it wanted to react, but its movements were clearly unable to keep up with the changing speed of the attacks.

The shield cracked instantly under the precise strike! An armor-piercing round even grazed the little skeleton's arm bone, leaving a deep scratch on it!

"Now! Concentrate your firepower and break the shield!" A cold glint flashed in Leng Yaozhu's eyes, and she waved her jade hand! The phantom of the Heavenly Phoenix behind her let out a clear phoenix cry, and a condensed crimson beam of light, carrying a terrifyingly high temperature that could incinerate everything, shot towards the center of the crumbling shield like a divine punishment!

"It's over!" Deng Zhan and the others stared in despair as the destructive beam of light rapidly enlarged before their eyes! Cracks spread across the shield like shattered glass, and it looked like it was about to collapse completely!

At this critical moment!

Buzz!

An indescribable, terrifying pressure, seemingly originating from the deepest depths of the Netherworld, descended without warning! It was like the invisible heavens crashing down!

Time seemed to freeze at this moment!

The crimson beam of light, about to strike the shield, was less than three feet from its target, yet it froze in mid-air! The raging energy seemed to be frozen, solidifying into a bizarre crimson sculpture!

All the soul-guided projectiles and rays that were being unleashed stopped instantly, as if they had hit an invisible wall of sighs! The deafening roar in the valley came to an abrupt halt, leaving only the teeth-grinding "sizzling" sound of energy being forcibly suppressed.

All the Spirit Pagoda Soul Masters, including the few powerful figures who rushed over, froze instantly! They felt their bodies, soul power,

Even their thoughts were held captive by an invisible, icy hand, rendering them immobile! A fear originating from the depths of their souls instantly overwhelmed everyone, making even breathing incredibly difficult!

Leng Yaozhu was the first to be hit! Her powerful aura, which was enough to rival the Limit Douluo, was instantly extinguished like a candle flame in a storm in the face of this sudden pressure!

The four-character battle armor covering her entire body groaned under the strain, and the phantom of the Heavenly Phoenix behind her let out a mournful cry as its light dimmed rapidly! Her beautiful face instantly lost all color, and her pupils shrank to pinpoints in extreme horror! An unprecedented chill shot from the soles of her feet to the top of her head!

The space rippled outwards like waves on water.

Two figures, as if emerging from a painting of hell, appeared silently within the crumbling gray-white protective shield.

The leader, tall and imposing, was shrouded in a long, dark gray robe that seemed to absorb all light. Beneath the shadow of the hood, only a pair of eyes, gleaming with a cold, greyish-white light, could be seen, staring like from the depths of an abyss. Simply by standing there, the terrifying divine power that froze time and space, commanding the submission of all things, spoke volumes!

Behind him, a bespectacled, somewhat frail-looking middle-aged man (Deng Fengqiao) was still in shock as he helped a middle-aged man (Deng Zhan) who was also dressed in Tang Clan uniform and looked like a wolf or fox.

"My lord!" Deng Zhan's voice trembled with excitement when he saw the person who had arrived, as if he had instantly found his pillar of support.

Harosa's gaze, like a cold probe, swept across the entire arena in an instant. Wherever his gaze fell, the solidified soul-guided cannonballs silently vanished into nothingness, and the frozen soul masters were struck as if by an invisible giant hammer. Before they could even scream, their bodies shattered and disintegrated like fragile porcelain, turning into a sky full of blood mist and broken bones!

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

A series of chilling thuds echoed through the deathly silent valley!

Apart from Leng Yaozhu, who was suspended in mid-air, locked in place by that terrifying pressure, and unable to move an inch, all the Spirit Tower Soul Masters surrounding this place, regardless of their level or distance, were instantly wiped out like dust under that cold gaze!

A thick, pungent stench of blood instantly filled the air, mingling with the smoke from the previous soul-guided cannon fire to create a nauseating atmosphere. In the valley, only Leng Yaozhu, her frozen crimson pillar of light, and Deng Zhan and the others who had survived the ordeal remained within the protective barrier below.

Leng Yaozhu hovered in the air, her body stiff as an ice sculpture. Her magnificent red robe swayed slightly in the residual energy turbulence.

The exquisite crown was slightly askew, revealing a few strands of slightly messy hair.

Her long, beautiful legs and high heels maintained an elegant posture, but her slightly trembling fingertips and the cold sweat sliding down her forehead revealed the turbulent waves churning within her heart.

She stared intently at the gray-robed figure below, the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Soul flickering behind him, and the light of the four-word battle armor dimmed to its extreme.

Those beautiful eyes were filled with extreme shock, disbelief, and an instinctive, deep-seated fear and vigilance when faced with overwhelming power!

"Harosa—" A name, with an uncontrollable tremor, was squeezed out with difficulty from her clenched teeth.
