Chapter 126 - The Power of Deities

The war was still ongoing. Not only were the lower-level spirit masters involved, but even the Titled Douluo who stood at the pinnacle of the Douluo Continent had begun to fall.

One of the four King's Flag Titled Douluo from the Spirit Hall died in the battle to destroy the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and their overall strength was greatly diminished.

The individual strength of the remaining three was not as great as that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast. They chose to fight three against two, but one of them was careless and was pierced through the throat by the life arrow of a 100,000-year-old porcupine, dying on the spot. The balance of the war began to tilt in favor of the soul beasts. With the presence of Brigitte, soul beasts—who were already thick-skinned and had far greater endurance than human spirit masters—became even harder to defeat.

Seeing the worsening situation, Ning Fengzhi nodded to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Saint beside him. This soul saint stopped assisting others and converted all of his remaining soul power into strengthening light, which he fired into Bone Douluo's body.

"Uncle Gu, I'll leave the beast in the sky to you. Even though it's a healing soul beast, it may still have ways to attack. You must be careful."

"Alright."

As the only free Super Douluo present, Bone Douluo knew he could no longer stay on the sidelines. He carried Ning Fengzhi and Ye Renxin to the group of soul masters standing on the city wall of the Star Crown Sect, then walked into a black hole and disappeared.

He had great confidence in the Star Crown Sect's defensive abilities. He had seen that these people could jointly release defensive soul skills that could even resist the full-force attacks of a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

All the humans and soul beasts essentially had their own opponents. Bone Douluo's disappearance was subtle and didn't cause any disturbance.

"Brigitte, be careful."

Responding to attacks from the two unmatched powers Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi, but still keeping an eye on Brigitte, Di Tian sensed spatial fluctuations nearby. At that moment, Brigitte was the only target close by.

His warning came a step too late. Brigitte saw the sudden black hole open beside her and panicked, dodging to the side of the blazing eagle.

Bone Douluo stepped out of the black hole, activated his martial spirit, and transformed into a massive bone dragon. With full support from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Saint, his power was equivalent to that of a level 96 Titled Douluo.

After repelling the blazing eagle with a swipe of his tail, the giant bone dragon's body slammed into Brigitte.

Di Tian tried to save her but was desperately blocked by Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi. They had been under pressure for a long time due to Di Tian's strength, but Brigitte—Douluo Continent's strongest healer—had also played a major role.

Now that they had a chance to remove Brigitte from the battlefield, they certainly wouldn't let Di Tian interfere easily.

"Get out of the way of this king!"

"Don't even think about it."

The Sacred Angel Sword slashed down, accompanied by an endless surge of divine waves. Seeing Brigitte about to be injured, Di Tian flew into a rage, and terrifying energy gathered in his dragon claws.

The Dragon God's Claw, a unique skill granted by the Dragon God, was Di Tian's most powerful killing move. It required massive physical strength. He didn't want to use it before, but now he had no choice.

Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi's expressions changed drastically. They sensed overwhelming danger from the attack—there was a high chance they could be killed.

They exchanged a glance and both erupted simultaneously. This time, they truly fought desperately.

Ninth Soul Skill: Angel Descends Again.

Ninth Soul Skill: Sea God Descends to the World.

The two divine figures began calling upon their gods' powers, and their strength soared dramatically. Three devastating attacks collided, causing an enormous explosion.

Di Tian transformed into his dragon form and burst out of the smoke and dust, heading toward Brigitte. Seeing the unfavorable situation, Bone Douluo immediately retreated without touching her.

Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi stood in the sky, vomiting blood. Di Tian was also severely injured. One of his dragon claws was broken and hung limp, bleeding profusely.

A green healing light emerged in Brigitte's hand, fully healing Di Tian's injuries. No one expected that the clash between the top-tier forces would end with both sides heavily wounded.

Supported by Brigitte, Di Tian stood up. He hadn't expected that on this continent, aside from the Angel God, the Sea God had also left behind a legacy—and that their powers could actually be summoned.

Didn't the gods say that the Angel God had fallen? Could it be that he still had remnants of divine power on the Douluo Continent?

The two unmatched Douluo on the enemy side were seriously injured. Di Tian was no longer fit to fight. Seeing that the soul beasts on the other battlefields were also not gaining the upper hand, Di Tian could only announce a retreat, his face dark.

Not to mention the Angel God—just the attack released by that human woman earlier was even more powerful than an Angel God's successor. And there was also the Sea God's intervention. Di Tian transformed into the Blue Silver Grass Eater.

The soul beast army began slowly retreating back into the Great Star Dou Forest. The humans didn't pursue. They had little soul power left, and they lacked the advantage in strength.

The Demonic Spirit fighting Xu Mingxi heard the retreat call and immediately fled back to the soul beast ranks. That human had been too oppressive. No matter what tricks he used, she'd dismantle them. If not for his speed, he might've died.

Xu Mingxi watched him leave but didn't chase. Instead, she helped her comrades drive away the strange Ten Thousand Demon King, returning to Beast City safely.

The entire city erupted in cheers. The surviving soul masters embraced joyfully. For a moment, there was no more sectarian division.

But after the cheers, immense grief swelled in their hearts. They had survived—but how many friends had died? Several Titled Douluo had perished.

Three of the four King's Flag sons of the Spirit Hall were all dead. Lingyuan Douluo had been too aggressive and was assassinated by the 100,000-year-old Nether Snake. Even the level-93 Devil Bear Douluo died in this war.

On the other hand, they managed to kill three 100,000-year-old soul beasts. Though the soul rings were wasted, they gained three soul bones of the same age. With Spirit Hall's talent reserves, it wouldn't take many years before three more Titled Douluo were born.

Other sects and families also suffered losses. The Stone Antelope Sect Leader had died, a Soul Douluo elder from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had perished, and many generals from both empires were also killed in the battle.

The worst hit was the Clear Sky Sect. Their Fourth Elder, Titled Douluo Tang Ziyi, had died.

Tang Xiao carried the Fourth Elder's mutilated body, torn apart by soul beasts, back to Beast Suppression City, his heart filled with deep sorrow.

He didn't understand why the Fourth Elder, who had been fighting a 100,000-year-old soul beast so well, had suddenly shown a weakness and been killed.

More than half of the Clear Sky disciples he had brought were dead or injured, and the Fourth Elder died on the spot. How could he explain this to the other elders in the sect?

Tang Xiao didn't realize that Bibi Dong, not far away, was in a foul mood—she had been forced to retreat by the Blue Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape. The Quefeng Sect's poison had truly worked.
