Chapter 334 Another Offering Arrives?
Chapter 334 Another worshipper arrives?
Along the trajectory of the golden crocodile tail's sweeping attack, the air was compressed and displaced by pure force, creating a vacuum. Even before the attack reached him, the oppressive force, as heavy as a collapsing mountain, already made the hairs on Sword Douluo's body stand on end!
"This is?"
At the critical moment of life and death, a fierce glint flashed in Sword Douluo's eyes. Without having time to think, he decisively abandoned the Demon-Slaying Douluo, who was right in front of him and was already a lamb to the slaughter.
Immediately, he forcibly reversed the soul power within his body, and the Seven Kill Sword in his hand erupted with an unprecedentedly dazzling silver light, blocking the attack at the critical moment!
"clang--!!!!!!!"
The crocodile tail and the Seven Kill Sword collided with a deafening roar!
That wasn't the sound of metal clashing; it sounded more like two metal mountains colliding at supersonic speed!
A blinding burst of gold and silver light exploded outwards, and an incomparably violent impact spread out in a ring, lifting up another layer of the already ravaged ground below!
"Well!"
The next second, Sword Douluo groaned and his face turned pale instantly.
He felt an irresistible, pure, and brute force slamming into his body along the sword, as if his internal organs had shifted! The bones in his arm holding the sword creaked under the strain, and his hand instantly split open, bleeding profusely.
Immediately afterward, he was sent flying backward uncontrollably, like a bird struck head-on by a battering ram! His body traced a gruesome arc in the air, his feet stomping repeatedly in the void, creating bursts of air, and he staggered back nearly a hundred meters before barely managing to dissipate the terrifying force and regain his balance. But even now, his hand holding the sword was still trembling slightly.
With just one strike, he forced Sword Douluo to retreat?!
Only then did the figure that launched the attack appear as if stepping from illusion into reality, slowly solidifying and manifesting at the starting point of the trajectory left by the crocodile's tail.
He was an exceptionally tall and robust old man, estimated to be over two and a half meters tall. Standing there, he resembled a golden iron tower, exuding an aura that suppressed the entire scene.
He wore a set of ancient yet ferocious golden armor, the plates thick and the design wild. The shoulder armor and knee guards were carved with lifelike crocodile heads with gaping jaws and sharp teeth. His exposed skin was bronze, and his muscles were bulging like the gnarled roots of an old tree.
What is most striking is his face.
His face was square, with high cheekbones, and deep wrinkles etched by time, yet he showed no signs of aging or decay. Instead, he exuded the majesty of someone who had long held a high position and wielded the power of life and death.
Behind him, a huge, long tail covered in scales and spikes trailed behind him.
At this moment, he coldly swept his gaze across the entire arena, lingering for a moment on Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Roaring Sky Douluo Tang Xiao, his invisible pressure making the air seem to freeze.
It was none other than the second elder of the Spirit Hall, a level 98 peak Douluo—Golden Crocodile Douluo.
The appearance of Golden Crocodile Douluo instantly cast a heavy, despairing shadow over the battle that had just been reversed. The terrifying soul power fluctuations, reaching level ninety-eight, swept over the entire ruins of the side hall like a tangible tide, making everyone's faces turn extremely grim.
"Golden Crocodile Douluo?!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Tang Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints, and he let out a low, incredulous roar.
A level 98 peak Douluo?!
This is a gap that cannot be easily bridged by martial spirit and skills!
Meanwhile, not far away.
After Sword Douluo Chen Xin steadied himself, he quickly raised his hand to wipe away a trace of blood that had been shaken out of the corner of his mouth. The crocodile tail attack just now had made him feel with absolute clarity the terrifying power of the opponent's soul force, which was savage, ancient, and extremely pure.
"This is troublesome..."
The last trace of color drained from Ning Fengzhi's face.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart, but the slight trembling of his fingertips betrayed him.
The appearance of Golden Crocodile Douluo.
This means that the level of combat power deployed by the Spirit Hall has exceeded their worst-case scenario.
"Golden Crocodile Douluo? The Second Elder of the Spirit Hall?"
"This is really troublesome. Hasn't Tang Chuan come back yet?"
At this moment, Dugu Bo's eyes narrowed to slits, and the poisonous mist around him unconsciously subsided somewhat. For the first time, a look of fear, as if facing a formidable enemy, appeared on his sinister face.
He knew better than anyone how terrifying the resistance to toxins would be once one's soul power reached that level, and that his most proficient methods would likely be much less effective.
Without any orders, the situation on the battlefield changes in an instant.
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The powerful members of the Spirit Hall, who were originally scattered and fighting in various places, were now separated.
Like the receding tide, they swiftly and orderly withdrew from the battle.
The Demon-Slaying Douluo, whose mouth was bleeding, was caught by the Thousand-Pound Douluo and quickly retreated. The Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo also immediately broke free from Yang Wudi and Dugu Bo's entanglement and disappeared in a flash.
"Grandpa Golden Crocodile, I didn't expect even you to come?"
Qian Renxue glanced at Golden Crocodile Douluo with complicated emotions, then she also put away her Angelic Holy Sword and, along with several other Title Douluos, retreated to Golden Crocodile Douluo's side like stars surrounding the moon.
In the blink of an eye.
The sky above the ruins, which was originally a chaotic battleground, was suddenly divided into two distinct camps!
On one side was the Spirit Hall camp, with Golden Crocodile Douluo as its absolute core, and surrounded by Title Douluos such as Qian Renxue, Qian Jun, Jiangmo, Snake Spear, and Porcupine, as well as the remaining black-clad Soul Masters.
The golden soul power light faintly merged into one, and although some people were injured, their aura was re-condensed under the abyss-like pressure of Golden Crocodile Douluo, and even became more sinister.
On the other side was the Heavenly Dou Empire Alliance, with Tang Xiao and Chen Xin standing side by side at the front, Ning Fengzhi in the center under Niu Gao's protection, and Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi on the flanks.
Their soul power also surged, the dark light of the Clear Sky Hammer, the silver light of the Seven Kill Sword, the poisonous mist of the Azure Phosphorus, the sharpness of the Soul-Breaking Spear, and the weight of the Plate Armor Rhinoceros intertwined to form a resilient aura, firmly resisting the terrifying pressure coming from the other side.
The two sides faced each other across a vast distance of several dozen feet in the void.
The turbulent energy flow silently dissipated in the middle zone, leaving behind suspended debris and dust.
Meanwhile, the outline of Tiandou City appeared on the horizon.
A streak of crimson light flashed across the sky above Sunset Forest. At that moment, Tang Chuan had already driven the Crimson King to a place several hundred miles east of Tian Dou City.
Just then, the figure of the Snow Empress appeared in his sea of consciousness. She was no longer the majestic ruler of the far north, but more like an ancient sage who guided the laws.
"Tang Chuan, look."
Following her thoughts, Tang Chuan saw the scenes that materialized in the spiritual world.
A crystal-clear droplet of water floats in the air, with countless tiny sparks of life dancing joyfully inside.
"Water, the gentlest and most benevolent, nourishes all things and is the source of life. The boundless vitality contained in your Blue Silver Emperor is essentially this flowing, nourishing, and nurturing water."
