The battlefield reflected the red dragon pupils of Flame Dragon Douluo Huo Wushuang in the distance that were almost spitting out fire, as well as the terrifying flames around him that were swaying violently, blazing white with dark red.
And in the center of the scorched earth, the figure with gray hair, blue clothes, and a ferocious left arm, Bone Tail Scorpion Hook, stood quietly, his blurred face hidden in the shadows, and only his indifferent eyes seemed to be sizing up his furious opponent through the lingering mist.
"Who--?!" Huo Wushuang squeezed out these two words through his teeth, his voice hoarse, like two pieces of red-hot iron rubbing against each other. He stared at Gray-Haired Man, trying to distinguish something from the blurry outline and weird breath. The blazing dragon's power mixed with the monstrous killing intent, like an invisible wave of flames, surged towards the opponent.
However, that Gray-Haired Man did not answer. He just tilted his head slightly, as if he was listening, and as if... observing. After a moment, a very faint, almost imperceptible emotion, mixed with a sense of surprise and a trace of amusement, seemed to flash away on that blurry face.
"Ha..." A very soft sneer with a strange rhythm came from the shadows. The voice was low and slightly hoarse, as if it had not spoken for a long time. "Don't be so grumpy! I originally planned to hide it for a while longer."
These sudden words with a somewhat joking tone made Huo Wushuang's anger stagnant, followed by a deeper chill and rage. This guy, after killing so many people, actually spoke in this tone?!
"What on earth are you?! A hidden rat!" Huo Wushuang asked sharply, Soul Power inside his body was running wildly, and the dark red flames became more intense, locking every inch of space around Gray-Haired Man to prevent him from teleporting and sneaking up again.
"Me?" Gray-Haired Man seemed to tilt his head, and the weird Bone Tail Scorpion Hook swayed slightly, and the gray mist flowed at the tip. "One... was just passing by Soul Master." His tone was still calm, but the indifference in his words was more chilling than any ridicule.
"Soul Beast?!" Huo Wushuang gritted his teeth. Just when he was about to rant again, some kind of Origin induction belonging to the dragon Spirit Empire in his body, as well as Titled Douluo's keen perception of the essence of energy, allowed him to suddenly capture an extremely obscure aura that should never appear on a "human" body.
It was a strange fluctuation mixed with inhuman Soul Power characteristics. Although it was cleverly hidden under the vague figure and strange power of Gray-Haired Man, it was still captured by Huo Wushuang at the moment when he was pushing Soul Power with all his strength and was highly concentrated.
This aura... was similar to Soul Beast, and the cold, violent part of it made him instinctively feel disgusted and threatened, as if he was not facing a human being but some kind of higher-level predator in human skin.
"What the hell are you?!" Huo Wushuang's pupils shrank suddenly and he yelled. The shock in his heart even temporarily outweighed the anger. Being able to take the form of a human is at least Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
Facing Huo Wushuang's questioning, Gray-Haired Man's blurred face seemed to have an elusive arc. He neither admitted nor denied it, but the indifference in his eyes seemed to be a little more playful.
"You talk too much," he said lightly. He gently raised the Bone Tail Scorpion Hook on his left arm, and the gray light at the tip appeared again.
"You--!!" Huo Wushuang's heart rang with alarm bells. The other party's evasive attitude and the reappearance of the gray light that made his companion disappear silently made him realize that any temptation and questioning were meaningless at this moment.
The only way to survive is to use all your strength to completely destroy this thing in front of you that does not know whether it is a person or Soul Beast! "Die to me! Ninth Soul Skill--Flame Sun Burst!"
He no longer hesitated, and the nine Soul Rings on his body suddenly shone brightly, especially the deep black ninth Soul Ring, which exploded with astonishing light! The already huge Blazing Earth Dragon real body expanded again, and the flames turned into a deep and condensed dark red that seemed to be able to burn through the space! The power of the dragon was overwhelming, and the high temperature made the air distort and explode.
The dragon's mouth opened wide, and deep in its throat, a ball of golden-red hot light condensed to the extreme, like a small sun, condensed and compressed crazily, emitting terrifying waves that destroyed the world! As the strongest Soul Skill obtained after being promoted to Titled Douluo, this was his trump card. He was going to decide life and death with one blow, and burn this weird guy together with this piece!
Faced with this terrifying blow that would make any Titled Douluo prepare for it, Gray-Haired Man finally seemed to be more serious. He did not retreat or dodge, but instead raised his tail scorpion hook in the face of the heaven-destroying golden-red ball of light.
At the tip of Scorpion Tail, a light the size of a grain of rice appeared.
Dan-Devour.
"Go to hell!!" A sharp look flashed in Huo Wushuang's eyes, and the golden-red light ball condensed to the extreme in his throat exploded! An extremely thick and extremely condensed golden-red flame light beam, with terrifying high temperature and devastating impact that burned everything, tore the air, instantly spanned a distance of tens of meters, and completely submerged Gray-Haired Man and the space around him!
And at the same moment when the golden red light beam erupted, the scorpion hook at the end of Gray-Haired Man's left arm bone, with that gray light, gently moved forward as if to break through the void and face the raging torrent of flames.
"Tsk--!"
This time, it was no longer the slight sound that seemed to erase traces.
The moment that gray "Dan-Devour" mist came into contact with Huo Wushuang's ninth Soul Skill "Flame Sun Burst" that was compressed to the extreme and contained Flame Dragon Douluo's lifelong cultivation and life's anger--
Changes occur suddenly!
The moment Dan-Devour came into contact with the golden-red flame, it felt as if it was encountering a red-hot soldering iron, making an extremely harsh "chichi" sound! The mist rolled and fluctuated violently, and was evaporated and diluted by the extreme high temperature at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"Oh?" Gray-Haired Man's deep and hoarse voice sounded, and this time, a trace of surprise was clearly revealed. "Dan-Devour, an attack that can wipe out Titled Douluo, was actually restrained for the first time when faced with your attack that was comparable to Ultimate Fire?"
His tone was calm, as if he was stating an objective fact, but the content in his words shocked Huo Wushuang's heart, and then he felt a trace of ecstasy! This guy is afraid of fire! At least, he is afraid of his extremely high-temperature flames!
However, Gray-Haired Man's movements did not pause at all. Just as the Dan-Devour mist was evaporated and weakened by the flames, his Bone Tail Scorpion Hook, like the most cunning poisonous snake, followed the path created by Dan-Devour and pierced into the violent torrent of golden-red flames with incomparable precision!
"Boom--!"
The moment the Scorpion Tail hook pierced the flame, the gray lines suddenly burst out with intense light! A powerful swallowing suction force erupted from the tip of Scorpion Tail!
This time, the effect of Dan-Devour was greatly weakened and could not completely "eradicate" this condensed flame defense. It was a direct confrontation with the violent Soul Power and life essence belonging to Huo Wushuang!
"Roar--!" Huo Wushuang let out a roar of pain and anger. He felt that the ninth Soul Skill he had spat out, which contained a huge amount of Soul Power and Mental Power, was like a balloon with a hole punctured, and the energy in it was being plundered and sucked away by a cold and greedy force!
Moreover, this predatory force made him extremely uncomfortable, but at the same time, he also confirmed the weakness of the other party's gray light! With ecstasy and determination intertwined, instead of restraining Soul Power, he even more crazily activated the remaining Soul Power in his body, even at the expense of activating Origin, making the golden-red flame beam that he spat out thicker and hotter!
He will rely on the extreme heat of his own flames to completely burn out the weird mist, and at the same time use the violent flame energy to overwhelm and even bite back that greedy bone tail!
"Chichichichi--!"
Under the burning of the more intense golden-red flame, the gray light evaporated faster, and the scope further shrank, leaving almost only a little bit, stubbornly attached to the tip of Scorpion Tail.
The figure of Gray-Haired Man, under the continuous impact of the torrent of golden-red flames, slid back a few steps. The shadows surrounding him became much thinner, and his brows seemed to be frowning under his blurred face.
"It seems that Soul Master will suffer when facing Ultimate Attribute, especially those with fire attributes." He whispered to himself, his voice still hoarse and calm, but the meaning of his words was extremely clear.
Just as he finished speaking, Huo Wushuang seized the opportunity, and the ferocious light in the dragon's eyes surged. Regardless of the pain of rapid consumption and absorption of his own Soul Power, he violently raised the direction of the dragon's breath light beam! The golden-red torrent of destruction was like an angry dragon raising its head, fiercely impacting the rock wall above Gray-Haired Man!
"Boom--!"
The rock wall at the top of the underground cave, which was already crumbling due to the previous battle, finally collapsed completely under the terrifying power of "Flame Sun Burst"! Countless huge Rock mixed with hot magma crashed down toward the Gray-Haired Man below like the sky was shattering and the earth was cracking!
Huo Wushuang actually wanted to take advantage of the landslide to bury Gray-Haired Man!
