"Damn it! How are this old bastard's moves so sinister?!"

Demon Subduing Douluo could only scramble to defend himself, forced to turn the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand from offense to defense.

But Wei Kurong's moves were far too bizarre and unpredictable, impossible to read.

One moment, he was attacking head-on with a blast of poisonous mist; the next, poisonous vines were entangling his feet from underground.

Then came a sneak attack from behind, laced with spiritual poison.

After only a few exchanges, Demon Subduing Douluo was already struggling to keep up, teetering on the brink of disaster.

His proud advantage in strength, in the face of Wei Kurong's endless, impossible-to-guard-against methods,

was completely useless. Instead, he was like a wild bull trapped in a spiderweb.

All he could do was rage helplessly!

On top of the city wall, the wind howled.

Golden Crocodile Douluo clenched his fists so tightly that his nails nearly dug into his palms.

He watched helplessly as Seventh Brother, usually so invincible and arrogant, was now being toyed with like a monkey.

Seventh Brother charged left and right through the strange green mist, yet still couldn't break free of Wei Kurong's entanglement.

"Bastard!

Bastard!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo seethed with fury.

His formidable Soul Power surged wildly within him.

Several times, he nearly threw caution to the wind and charged out.

However,

whenever Golden Crocodile Douluo showed even the slightest sign of movement,

that indifferent gaze from directly ahead, its owner hovering in midair, would lock onto his brow like a tangible sword.

Xu Yu didn't even need to lift a finger.

He simply stood there, still and silent, his Soul Power pressure bearing down on Golden Crocodile Douluo's heart, leaving him too afraid to take a single step beyond the line!

"Damn it!

What kind of monster is this Xu Yu?!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo's veins bulged across his forehead. Beyond his anger, he felt a deep frustration and helplessness unlike anything he'd ever experienced.

As the revered Second Worship of Spirit Hall and a Level 98 Peak Douluo,

he'd roamed the continent for over a hundred years. When had he ever suffered such humiliation?

Even when facing Tang Chen or Bo Saixi, he would've dared to fight them head-on.

Even if he lost, he could still fight with his head held high!

Yet against this seemingly unremarkable Xu Yu, even his courage to make a move had been crushed!

A profound regret began to spread through Golden Crocodile Douluo's heart, impossible to suppress.

"If only I hadn't been so overconfident... If only I'd insisted that the Grand Pontiff come with us..."

Golden Crocodile Douluo screamed inwardly, consumed by regret:

"If Big Brother were here, with his peerless strength that made him invincible in the sky, how could he let the Great Sun Prince Mansion act so brazenly?!

No matter how strong Xu Yu is, could he possibly be stronger than Big Brother, a Peerless Douluo?!"

"I was careless!

I really was careless!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo had thought that with himself and Seventh Brother, two Peak Douluos, along with several other Titled Douluos,

they would be more than enough to sweep aside any force on the continent.

Even the suddenly emerged Great Sun Prince Mansion should only have given them a bit of trouble.

But who could've imagined that the Great Sun Prince Mansion not only possessed a Steel Giant Ship, but also had top-tier combatants so terrifying that they beggared belief!

Just as Golden Crocodile Douluo agonized over his choices, consumed by regret,

the battle below had already reached its conclusion.

"It's over, little brat."

Wei Kurong's sinister voice suddenly sounded behind Demon Subduing Douluo, carrying a chill that made his hair stand on end.

"What?!"

Demon Subduing Douluo was horrified.

He tried to turn and swing his staff, only to discover that his body had somehow grown utterly stiff.

Even the flow of his Soul Power had slowed to a fatal crawl.

"When...?"

Demon Subduing Douluo's pupils contracted as he stared at his arm in terror.

His once bronze-colored skin was now covered in fine, dark green spots—the telltale sign that the poison had already reached his bone marrow!

"The poison's taken effect."

Wei Kurong cackled. His Ghost Claw, glowing with an eerie green light, lightly pressed against Demon Subduing Douluo's back.

There was no earth-shattering boom.

Only a faint, skin-crawling squelch.

It was the sound of deadly poison entering his body and corroding his flesh.

"AAAH—!!!"

A shriek of unbearable agony rang through the sky.

Demon Subduing Douluo's towering body jerked violently, then dropped limply from the air like a kite with its strings cut.

Boom!

Dust billowed everywhere.

Demon Subduing Douluo crashed heavily into the ground, leaving a deep crater.

"Seventh Brother!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes nearly bulged from their sockets as he cried out in alarm.

But when the dust cleared and everyone saw what lay at the bottom of the crater, every member of Spirit Hall drew a sharp breath.

A chill shot from the soles of their feet straight to the crowns of their heads.

The once-imposing Demon Subduing Douluo was curled up at the bottom of the crater, twitching in agony.

His Coiling Dragon Armor had been corroded into tatters.

The skin exposed beneath it had turned a nauseating, dark purple.

Foul-smelling yellow fluid was still oozing from it.

His once-stern face was now swollen like a pig's head, black and purple, his features barely recognizable.

"Cough... Cough, cough..."

Demon Subduing Douluo struggled to open his mouth and breathe, but instead spat out a mouthful of black blood mixed with pieces of his organs.

In a mere moment,

a Level 96 Super Douluo had been tortured to the brink of death, unable even to stand!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. That's all it took?"

Hovering above the crater, Wei Kurong looked down at the wretched Demon Subduing Douluo and licked his lips, still unsatisfied.

"My 'Green Phosphorus Soul-Devouring Poison' has only just taken effect. Looks like the Worships of Spirit Hall aren't made of much after all."

Silence.

A deathly silence fell over the entire battlefield.

Whether they belonged to Spirit Hall's army or Linhai City's defenders, everyone was so stunned by the horrifying scene that they couldn't utter a word.

That was a Titled Douluo!

A mighty Super Douluo at the very pinnacle of the Soul Master World!

And he'd been trampled underfoot like a dead dog?

Golden Crocodile Douluo watched, his face pale as paper, his body trembling slightly.

This time,

Spirit Hall hadn't just lost.

They'd been utterly defeated, humiliated beyond measure!

Golden Crocodile Douluo could no longer care about Xu Yu's oppressive aura. He flashed into a streak of golden light and plunged into the crater.

"Seventh Brother!

Seventh Brother, how are you?!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo lifted Demon Subduing Douluo, who was barely recognizable as a person, and pressed both hands against his back.

His immense golden Soul Power poured into Demon Subduing Douluo like a river bursting its banks, attempting to force out the rampant poison.

But the next second, Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression changed.

The green poison clung like a bone-deep parasite. Not only did his Soul Power fail to drive it out,

it seemed to scent blood and surged back along his Soul Power, even showing signs of corroding his meridians!

"This... What kind of poison is this?!

It can even corrode my Soul Power?!"
