Battle Against the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo

"Your life isn't meant to end? How laughable. Then today, I'll use your blood as a sacrifice to Spirit Hall!"

Chrysanthemum Pass's shrill voice shot toward Dugu Bo. He then glanced at Bibi Dong. Seeing her nod, he and Ghost Douluo nodded at the same time.

"Old Poison, I'm afraid we can't let you leave alive today!"

Bang!

The two Chrysanthemum Douluos leaped down from the platform. They exchanged a glance, and nine Soul Rings simultaneously emerged around each of them.

"Is that so?"

Dugu Bo shook his head. Nine Soul Rings slowly rose behind him as well, along with a jade-green serpent rising from his back.

"Are we really not going to help?"

Prince Xue Xing asked anxiously. He had thought they had only been joking earlier, but it turned out to be real.

"Shh. Let the bullets fly for a while."

Qin Feng hushed him. With Dugu Bo's soul power, he should be able to hold out for a while. Qin Feng was considering how they should escape once they fell out with Spirit Hall later.

"His courage is commendable, wouldn't you say, Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone?"

Ning Fengzhi watched Qin Feng and the others with great interest. He knew Prince Xue Xing, but he could not see through those other two. Or perhaps they were Dugu Bo's trump cards.

"Reckless. He clearly knows he has no chance, yet he still dares to be so arrogant."

Sword Douluo shook his head. If he were Dugu Bo, he would never have gotten involved in this mess.

"He's already a dead man."

Bone Douluo spoke expressionlessly. In his heart, he had already sentenced Dugu Bo to death.

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong was also staring at Qin Feng and Bald Strong. Judging from the anxious look on Dugu Bo's face earlier, these two must have been Dugu Bo's trump cards.

However, she did not take them seriously. She refused to believe Dugu Bo could escape again this time. Even if Tang Hao came, Dugu Bo still had to die today.

"Stubborn fool!"

"Fifth Soul Skill, Frost Blossom Gathering."

Chrysanthemum Pass sneered. Dozens of energy blades floated around him before rapidly shooting toward Dugu Bo.

Thud...

At that very instant, Bibi Dong lightly tapped the ground with the scepter in her hand.

Then, a transparent barrier enveloped Chrysanthemum Pass, Qin Feng, and the others.

"Chrysanthemum Pass, do you really think this old man is afraid of you?"

"Fifth Soul Skill, Serpent Python Heavenly Shield."

A green barrier appeared around Dugu Bo. Chrysanthemum Pass's energy blades struck it, leaving only several cracks.

"We haven't met in years, and you've improved quite a bit!"

"Who's like you, serving as Spirit Hall's dog for half your life and still not even having a single Soul Bone?"

Dugu Bo mocked him. He might not have been particularly good at fighting, but when it came to mocking people, he excelled at it. Being the king of trash talk was no empty boast.

"You!"

Chrysanthemum Pass pointed at Dugu Bo, his face full of fury.

"What? Did I hit the mark?"

Dugu Bo burst into laughter. He loved seeing people unable to argue back while their faces twisted with rage.

"Old Ghost!"

"Mm."

The two exchanged looks and nodded together.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar!"

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar!"

The Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos shouted in unison. A golden flower phantom appeared behind Chrysanthemum Pass, while Ghost Douluo turned into a mass of shadow.

"Dugu Bo, prepare to die!"

"Ninth Soul Skill, Withered Chrysanthemums, Wounds Across the Ground, Falling Flowers Break Men's Hearts!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo shrieked. The chrysanthemum-like weapon in his hand slowly bloomed, then the flower at its tip rapidly exploded into a sky full of petals that flew toward Dugu Bo.

"Ninth Soul Skill, Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts!"

Ghost Douluo said coldly. A black hole appeared overhead, and one monster after another emerged from it, walking toward Dugu Bo.

"No way, you're actually serious?"

This time, Dugu Bo was dumbfounded. He was only good with his mouth, but he had not prepared himself for an actual fight!

"Ninth Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Divine Light!"

Left with no choice, Dugu Bo could only fight back. The Jade Phosphor Snake Emperor behind him spewed out a vast cloud of green poisonous mist, which rapidly spread through the barrier.

"Old Poison, die!"

Chrysanthemum Pass roared shrilly as the petals in midair accelerated.

"This is bad, things have gone too far!"

Qin Feng, who had been watching with interest moments ago, now looked grave. He pushed Bald Strong, who was asleep.

"Wake up. Stop sleeping."

"Hm? What is it?"

Bald Strong rubbed his eyes. The moment he opened them, he saw the green poisonous mist before him and nearly jumped out of his skin.

"What is this? Someone is trying to assassinate me!"

Bald Strong sprang up from his chair in alarm. Only after sensing that the poisonous mist could not do much harm to him did he relax, then he looked at Qin Feng in confusion.

"Stop staring and hurry up to help Dugu Bo."

Qin Feng urged him quickly. If they kept watching, Dugu Bo's corpse would be cold soon. What had Qin Feng come here for otherwise? To get Dugu Bo killed?

"Damn! Something this huge happened while I was asleep?"

Bald Strong looked shocked, but his hands did not stop moving. He grabbed a chainsaw and charged forward, slinging the sniper rifle onto his back as he ran.

"Don't panic, I'm here."

Bald Strong stood in front of Dugu Bo. Nine Soul Rings slowly rose around him, until that blood-red Soul Ring appeared.

"How can I not panic?"

Dugu Bo looked as though he were about to cry. Just now, he had practically seen his great-grandmother waving at him.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar!"

The chainsaw in Bald Strong's hand rapidly enlarged, and the phantom of a chainsaw flashed behind him.

"Chaotic Wind-Splitting Saw Technique!"

Bald Strong wildly swung the chainsaw in his hand, knocking down every incoming petal. He then pulled out the sniper rifle from behind his back and aimed at the giant monsters slowly advancing toward them.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The successive gunshots were exceptionally piercing in the deathly silent Spirit Hall. Blocked by the poisonous mist, they could hear only gunfire and the monsters' roars.

"Damn! What the hell is this Chaotic Wind-Splitting Saw Technique?"

Qin Feng looked confused upon hearing Bald Strong shout those words. Wasn't that Tang Hao's signature technique? And wasn't it called the Chaotic Wind Hammer Technique?

"System, does Bald Strong have this Soul Skill?"

Unable to figure it out, Qin Feng could only ask the system.

"Ding, no."

"Whew! Battlefield cleared."

Bald Strong blew on the still-smoking sniper rifle, looking utterly relaxed.

"Uh..."

Dugu Bo, standing behind Bald Strong, felt incredibly awkward. Didn't that just make him look weak? Look at that efficiency—it was like slaughtering chickens. Then look at him... it was truly hard to put into words.

At this time, the poisonous mist also began to slowly disperse.

"Who do you think won?"

Ning Fengzhi turned to Sword Douluo and asked. At first, he had thought Dugu Bo had no chance whatsoever, but after hearing those gunshots, he was no longer certain.

"Hard to say. A wave of soul power stronger than Dugu Bo's appeared just now."

Sword Douluo stared gravely at the slowly dissipating poisonous mist. When the mist had appeared earlier, that soul power had suddenly emerged. It did not belong to Dugu Bo or the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos.

"Oh, won't we find out soon enough?"

Bone Douluo looked entirely unconcerned. It had nothing to do with him, so why worry? This was not a grudge against their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
