Chapter 331: Title Douluo Free-for-All
"Fifth Soul Skill—Thunderclap Shatterkill!"
The fifth soul ring on Snake Lance Douluo lit up. Though it was merely a thousand-year ring, with his spirit power exceeding level 90, the unleashed force rivaled that of a ten-thousand-year soul skill.
Yang Wudi thrust his spear forward to meet the strike. In the violent clash that followed, powerful soul power rippled in all directions, reducing many buildings around them to rubble.
Following Snake Lance Douluo, other elders of Spirit Hall like Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and worship experts such as Lion Douluo and Lightfeather Douluo all arrived on the battlefield.
Bibi Dong herself came as well, bringing her beloved disciple Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and the number one bootlicker—Yan.
"Damn it!"
Seeing her carefully assembled Holy Dragon Legion being slaughtered one-sidedly, Bibi Dong flew into a rage. With a furious shout, her soul power erupted like a volcano. Intense killing intent radiated from her body as six thin, cicada-wing-like purple wings burst out from her back.
These were her external soul bones—Six-Winged Purple Light Wings—at least fifty thousand years old, gained from a soul beast known as the Purple-Winged Spider Emperor. The wings granted her the ability of flight.
With the amplification of the soul bones, Bibi Dong's speed reached terrifying levels, blasting out like a shooting star.
"Mother-in-law, your opponent is me!"
A mocking voice rang out as a sharp sword light slashed through the air.
"Xiao Yu!"
Bibi Dong gave a cold snort. Though she loathed to admit it, this bastard was indeed her son-in-law.
Sensing the deadly edge of that sword energy, Bibi Dong dared not be careless. Her Death Spider Emperor spirit erupted, nine soul rings spinning around her body as she fired a purple-black soul power blast to meet Xiao Yu's sword light—neutralizing it.
Lion Douluo, Lightfeather Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, Spirit Kite Douluo, and Porcupinefish Douluo—all Title Douluo-level worship experts and elders—released their martial spirits and joined Bibi Dong's side.
Seeing so many Title Douluo allies arriving, Holy Dragon Douluo Tuoba Xi, who had been hiding, gained confidence and joined the ranks of the powerhouses.
Behind Xiao Yu, figures shot forward—Eden, Ikki, Purple Dragon, Cang Mo, Yuna, Huo Wu, Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling—all of them Title Douluo-level experts.
Overwhelming pressure surged from both sides, making the entire Spirit City tremble. The two factions stood in perfect opposition, neither side yielding in momentum.
Snake Lance Douluo and Yang Wudi also ceased their fight, returning to their camps to face off from afar.
Xiao Yu pointed to the sky and said calmly, "Mother-in-law, I think it'd be best if we took this battle up there."
Bibi Dong glanced at Xiao Yu without replying. But her body had already soared into the air, followed closely by the other worship experts and elders behind her.
When Title Douluo-level powerhouses engaged in mortal conflicts, they fought in the sky to avoid massive collateral damage.
This rule had been solidified after God King Tang's ascension in the second Douluo era, but even before Tang San's time, the soul master world had already observed this unspoken rule.
The reason was simple—Title Douluo were far too destructive and could easily devastate their surroundings.
And now, with more than ten Title Douluo on each side, the shockwaves alone could level Spirit City. Neither Xiao Yu nor Bibi Dong wanted to win only to be left commanding a handful of survivors.
Once both factions had taken to the skies, there was no need for words. Each found their opponent, and a grand melee erupted instantly.
Yang Wudi resumed his clash with Snake Lance Douluo. The Broken Soul Spear and Snake Lance collided fiercely in midair, sparks flying with every impact.
"Chrysanthemum Pass, today we'll settle old and new grudges!"
Dugu Bo made straight for his long-time nemesis—Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan.
His seventh soul ring gleamed, and emerald green light burst from his body. A massive green serpent over thirty meters long lunged at Chrysanthemum Douluo.
"You old poison freak, today I'll send you to the grave!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo snorted coldly and activated his true martial spirit form. His Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum bloomed into a massive golden flower, radiating an endless glow like a blazing sun.
"Fifth Soul Skill—Frost Blossom Convergence!"
After activating his Martial Spirit True Body, Chrysanthemum Douluo unleashed his fifth soul skill. Countless petals floated from the Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, and under the infusion of his soul power, they transformed into razor-sharp blades with incredible speed and penetrating power, all flying toward Dugu Bo.
"Fifth Soul Skill—Emerald Flame Burn!"
At the same time, Dugu Bo's fifth soul ring lit up. A stream of emerald green flame erupted from the mouth of the massive serpent formed by his martial spirit.
The flame didn't radiate extreme heat, but it was laced with the venom of the Emerald-scaled Serpent Emperor—Dugu Bo's martial spirit—immensely corrosive and toxic.
"Old poison freak, your toxins are useless against me!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo sneered as he infused more soul power into the massive blade formed by Frost Blossom Convergence, slashing it down toward Dugu Bo.
These two rivals were no strangers to each other. Even before joining the Nine Star Hall, Dugu Bo—who held nothing more than a nominal guest position in the Heaven Dou Empire—had often been targeted by Chrysanthemum Douluo. Under equal skill levels, Dugu Bo's poison had never broken through Chrysanthemum Douluo's defenses.
But this time, the result left Chrysanthemum Douluo stunned.
When the emerald flame collided with Frost Blossom Convergence, the orange-hued blade began to corrode and melt under the venom's power.
"What... how is this possible?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo stared in disbelief.
"Hahaha! Chrysanthemum Pass, did you think this was twenty years ago?"
Dugu Bo roared with laughter, his aura soaring even higher. "I am now... a rank 97 Title Douluo!"
"What? Ninety-seven?!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression changed drastically. As a highly-ranked elder of Spirit Hall, he knew full well what each level above ninety-five meant. A rank 97 Dugu Bo could now suppress two of him at once.
"Prepare to die, Chrysanthemum Pass!"
Seeing the fear flash across Chrysanthemum Douluo's face, Dugu Bo couldn't help but feel smug. He finally had his moment of glory. Back in the day, he'd repeatedly suffered under Chrysanthemum Douluo's hand, forced to hole up in the Heaven Dou Empire and avoid venturing out.
Now, his massive emerald serpent surged forward, baring its fangs and claws. Green light surged from its body, dyeing the entire space around Chrysanthemum Douluo in a poisonous hue.
"You old poison freak, don't get too full of yourself!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo roared back. Title Douluo had their pride—despite his effeminate nature, Chrysanthemum Douluo's inner arrogance was no less than anyone else's.
Facing a former punching bag who once cowered under his hand, he would never disgrace himself by fleeing.
Brilliant golden light burst wildly from his body, enveloping him until he looked like a miniature golden statue.
With that, he charged headlong toward Dugu Bo.
