At this moment, Tang San was almost unconscious under Titan's immense pressure. Just as he was about to make a desperate attempt to unleash the Clear Sky Hammer, a loud bang came from a nearby high-rise building, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
Even Old Titan stopped releasing his pressure, looking at the building with a solemn expression. He saw a heavyweight figure, one of the two guardian Douluos of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School—Bone Douluo Gu Rong. With
the pressure released, Tang San could no longer hold on and fainted.
"Haha, good lad, your reaction time and speed are quite good!"
Accompanied by a powerful, aged voice, opposite zuzong, stood a withered old man. His physique was astonishing; he wasn't the kind of muscularly overly robust man, but his entire skeletal structure was incredibly large. The
zuzong frowned slightly. The pressure this person exerted was even greater than that of Dugu Bo, indicating that the other party was at least a Title Douluo level expert.
As the saying goes, a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. The zuzong, speaking respectfully, asked, "May I ask what business you have with me
, senior?" The withered old man waved his hand, touching his sparsely shaved head, and said, "Don't call me 'senior' or 'junior.' I don't like those empty titles. People praise you for your abilities; today, I'd like to see for myself."
"Since that's the case, then I'll have to offend you." The withered old man had already made his point, so there was no need for the zuzong to hesitate any longer. He certainly couldn't defeat a Title Douluo; if the other party was determined to kill him, the clan leader would only be able to rely on the system's teleportation to survive.
A glint flashed in the zu zong's eyes, and a milky-white light emanated from his body as the Blue Silver Emperor coiled around him.
In the blink of an eye, the deep blue-black Blue Silver Emperor with its peculiar golden patterns seemed to be stimulated, suddenly enlarging to the thickness of a bowl, resembling a vine. Strange patterns shimmered with a faint light, coiling around the clan leader's body like dozens of giant snakes.
Simultaneously, the Blue Silver Domain disguise skill activated, four spirit rings—yellow and purple—spiraling upwards and releasing dazzling brilliance.
Since the opponent was a Title Douluo, all probing was pointless, so the clan leader immediately unleashed his first thousand-year spirit skill.
Two yellow spirit rings on the clan leader's body lit up simultaneously.
"Second Spirit Skill—Blue Silver Blade!"
In an instant, dozens of deep blue Blue Silver Emperor vines, tinged with black phosphorescence, erupted from the rooftop. The vines straightened two or three meters down from their tips, transforming into sharp blades that shot towards the withered old man from every angle.
This was the Blue Silver Blade unleashed by the zuzong after enhancing his first spirit ring. Its power was significantly greater than when he used his second spirit ring alone.
Seeing the blue-silver blade hurtling towards him, the withered old man didn't dodge. He simply raised his right hand and flicked it lightly; without him doing anything, the blue-silver blade shattered into a pile of fragments.
"Boy, your soul skill is not bad, but it can't be limited to this, can it?" Bone Douluo stood quietly in place, staring at the clan leader with a half-smile.
Zu zong wasn't angry. The other party was a Title Douluo; it would be strange if the blue-silver blade could even hurt him. He
formed several strange hand seals, and the blue-silver vines erupted again, transforming into hundreds of fiery red blades that shot towards the withered old man. This time, the blue-silver blades were different from before. Not only were they fully covered in fire poison, but their toughness and hardness were also at their highest. They also incorporated the domineering sword technique zuzong had learned from Xuan Jian, as well as the power of the Blazing Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Their power was more than ten times greater than before.
Sensing the sudden increase in the surrounding air temperature, a hint of surprise flashed in the withered old man's eyes. He thought to himself, "What is this? A flaming blade. I didn't expect a plant-type martial soul could reach this level of temperature. No, there's also sword energy mixed in."
*Thud*—Accompanied by the sound of a sharp blade slicing through the air, the blue-silver blade collided with the withered old man.
Strangely, the fiery red blade transformed from the Blue Silver Emperor was blocked by a huge bone phantom when it was half a meter away from the withered old man, unable to advance even an inch.
"A bone?" Zu Zong was startled. In the original work, the only one who used bones as a martial soul was Bone Douluo, one of the two guardian elders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. So it seemed that Ning Fengzhi was hiding nearby.
zuzong activated his detection nerves to the maximum, and sure enough, he found Ning Fengzhi's figure on a tall building several hundred meters away. Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw him calmly looking in his direction, accompanied by Ning Rongrong, who was standing anxiously to the side.
"Boy, you dare to be distracted while fighting me."
As he spoke, Gu Rong released a huge pressure force, sweeping around zuzong.
Faced with the sudden pressure, Zu Zong did not hesitate at all and released the Eight Spider Lances.
Gu Rong's eyes lit up, a fleeting glint of greed in them. "It's actually an external soul bone? It's a pity it's already fully fused; otherwise, it would be so much better for my Rongrong."
With the release of the Eight Spider Lances, Zu zong's attack power immediately increased by fifty percent. Soul power gathered beneath the zu zong's feet, and the Eight Spider Lances gripped the roof and walls, launching him away at high speed, leaving the oppressive range released by Gu Rong.
A Blue Silver Emperor appeared from the clan leader's palm. It appeared no different in thickness than before, the only difference being its color. Besides the signature peculiar golden patterns, the Blue Silver Emperor was now covered in reddish scales, like a red-hot metal block. Upon contact with water molecules in the air, it emitted white smoke, giving off a sense of oppression.
"Third Soul Skill—Blue Silver Cage, Five Layers of Barriers."
The first and third soul rings lit up silently, without any warning. Sixteen Blue Silver Emperors covered in fiery red scales suddenly surged forth from the ground around Gu Rong's body. In an instant, they converged above his head, forming a single cage. The same scene repeated itself, with another layer appearing on top of the original in the blink of an eye. This scene repeated five times in total.
Because there was no fluctuation of aura when it was released, even though Gu Rong, with his powerful mental strength as a Title Douluo, sensed it, he disdained to dodge. In addition, the speed of the sixteen Blue Silver Emperors that suddenly appeared was too fast. By the time he reacted, the cage formed by the Blue Silver Emperors in their extreme flame state was already completely surrounded and impenetrable.
The zu zong's lips curled slightly, and he uttered a soft shout, "Poison Devour."
As the word "devour" was uttered, fiery red liquid flowed from the gaps in the reddish scales and poured into the Blue Silver Cage. This was Zu zong's strongest state of Extreme Flame Blue Silver Cage.
As the Blue Silver Cage was completed,
a hiss, a gasp of cold air rang out from the entire audience.
The crowd, drawn by the battle between the clan leader and Bone Douluo, couldn't help but tremble. The cage released by the clan leader was clearly a control soul skill, but whose control soul skill possessed such destructive power? If one wasn't careful and got trapped, even a Soul King or Soul Emperor would perish on the spot!
