"A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skill truly lives up to its name!"
Snake Granny was not upset that Lin Ye had broken through her attack. Instead, she was even more excited.
If she could get the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone from Lin Ye, she would surely gain such overwhelming power herself.
Yes...
She definitely would!
Now she only hoped Lin Ye would use a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Skill and confirm that the boy really did have a Soul Bone.
"You crazy old woman!"
"Focus on the fight!"
Meng Shu had clearly not let greed cloud his mind yet.
A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone was indeed powerful.
And all the more tempting!
But...
They had to get their hands on it first.
A Soul Saint with a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone could challenge a Soul Douluo above his level.
What was more, Lin Ye had two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings.
The boy would not be easy to deal with.
Even so...
Meng Shu had no intention of giving up.
Once an arrow left the bow, there was no calling it back!
If the Peerless Dragon Snake couple failed to kill Lin Ye today, they would surely face serious trouble later.
"Sixth Soul Skill—Golden Dragon Piercing the Sky!"
Meng Shu gripped the Dragon Staff with both hands and thrust it high above his head.
The Sixth Soul Ring erupted in light!
All six Soul Rings blazed at once. Golden light climbed the staff like roaring flames, illuminating the coiled-dragon patterns inch by inch. At its tip, the dragon head's eyes snapped open and fired two dazzling golden beams.
"ROAR—!"
A dragon's cry shook heaven and earth.
A giant golden dragon burst roaring from the top of the staff, its body coiling as it soared a hundred meters into the sky.
The next instant!
The golden dragon plunged down with immense draconic might. The air warped and twisted wherever it passed, as though scorched by its heat.
Lin Ye lowered his stance.
He swept his Mystic Ice Dragon Claws out in a cross, forming a huge ice-white slash in midair.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss—"
The instant the attacks met,
the golden dragon was sliced apart.
Meng Shu sucked in a sharp breath.
That clash of Soul Skills had made him realize Lin Ye was stronger than he was.
Just then,
Snake Granny charged in from the side.
"Fifth Soul Skill—Serpent Formation Strangulation!"
Chao Tianxiang struck the ground with her Serpent Cane.
Nine phantom green snakes shot across the ground, lunging at Lin Ye from nine directions at once.
Their bodies crossed in midair, weaving a dense net in the blink of an eye.
They tightened like layers of iron chains, sealing off every path around Lin Ye and crushing inward.
"Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish—"
The Ice Soul Dragon-Slaying Sword in Lin Ye's hand became a blur of afterimages.
Its fierce sword energy instantly severed the snake phantoms, and their scattered Soul Power faded into the air.
But the sword energy had lost none of its force.
In the blink of an eye, it slashed straight toward Chao Tianxiang's face.
Her pupils contracted sharply.
The fierce sword energy brought a pressure unlike anything she had ever felt. Her breathing turned heavy in an instant.
By instinct, she raised her Serpent Cane across her body.
The next second,
the sword energy came cleaving down through the air.
Chao Tianxiang was hurled dozens of meters away.
"Old woman!"
At the sight, Meng Shu's heart nearly leaped from his chest.
But...
When he saw Chao Tianxiang get up from the ground, the heart lodged in his throat eased down a little.
Only a little.
Lin Ye's strength still had it firmly stuck there.
The boy was even harder to deal with than he had imagined.
"Old woman!"
"Old man!"
The Peerless Dragon Snake couple exchanged a glance.
They both realized they would never kill Lin Ye at this rate.
Now...
They could only use that move.
The next second, they ran toward each other.
As they moved,
the Soul Rings around them flashed in a strange rhythm.
Dragon-Snake Combined Strike!
The Peerless Dragon Snake couple were about to unleash the Martial Soul Fusion Skill they relied on most.
Only that ultimate killing move could bring down Lin Ye.
But...
Lin Ye had no intention of giving them the chance.
Everyone on the Douluo Continent knew the Peerless Dragon Snake couple owed their fame entirely to their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
And everyone knew that when unleashed, a Martial Soul Fusion Skill was far more than one plus one equaling two.
The next second,
Lin Ye poured all the Soul Power in his body into his Soul Bone.
"Ice Dragon Annihilation Blast!"
A massive Ice Dragon roared out of a pillar of light.
Its body coiled!
An ice-blue sphere of light formed in its mouth, with freezing currents spinning and compressing furiously inside.
The sphere shot from its jaws.
It flew straight toward Chao Tianxiang.
Wherever it passed, space itself seemed to freeze and tear apart.
"Watch out, old woman!"
Meng Shu's voice shook with terror he could not suppress.
A Soul Bone Skill!
Lin Ye really did have a Soul Bone.
From the power of that Soul Bone Skill, Meng Shu could tell it was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
Good heavens!
A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
This was the first time Meng Shu had ever seen one in his life.
At that moment,
his excitement was beyond words.
His desire to kill Lin Ye had reached its peak.
"BOOM—"
The Ice Dragon Annihilation Blast exploded.
To dodge the attack, Chao Tianxiang had no choice but to abandon the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
Her reaction was swift, but the blast covered too wide an area.
Even after she had fled more than a hundred meters, the shockwave from the exploding sphere still caught her.
She spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Old woman."
"Are you all right?"
Seeing Chao Tianxiang injured, Meng Shu felt even his greed for the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone diminish.
"I'm fine!"
Chao Tianxiang climbed to her feet.
She gestured that she could still fight.
For the Soul Bone!
For greater cultivation!
And for their family's future!
The Peerless Dragon Snake couple had to take this boy down today.
"Hah—!"
Meng Shu let out a thunderous shout.
Dragon Staff in hand, he charged straight at Lin Ye.
At the same time,
Chao Tianxiang made the same move from the other side.
Though Lin Ye appeared to be their target, their attacks were merely cover for completing their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
If they could unleash the Dragon-Snake Combined Strike, the scales of victory would tip overwhelmingly in their favor.
"..."
The corners of Lin Ye's mouth rose slightly.
How could he fail to see what they intended?
It was too obvious!
He could no longer sense the fierce killing intent they had shown before.
The next second,
Lin Ye shot forward.
Ignoring Meng Shu's frontal charge, he turned into a streak of brilliant golden light and rushed straight at Chao Tianxiang on the flank.
"CLANG—"
The Dragon Staff struck Lin Ye with a piercing crash.
Meng Shu felt as though he had hit a steel plate. Not only had he failed to hurt Lin Ye, but the impact had also left the web of his own hand aching.
"No!" Meng Shu's heart seemed to skip a beat. "Watch out, old woman!"
Damage immunity!
He had never imagined Lin Ye possessed such a miraculous skill.
They had been ignorant of just how powerful a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skill could be.
"Old man!"
By the time Chao Tianxiang reacted, it was too late.
She saw Lin Ye's Ice Soul Dragon-Slaying Sword shoot toward her.
"SHNK—"
She had no time to respond.
The Ice Soul Dragon-Slaying Sword pierced straight through Chao Tianxiang's shoulder.
The overwhelming sword energy then swept her off her feet and hurled her more than a hundred meters away.
