Black clouds churned high in the sky, and the seawater across ten thousand miles faintly trembled.
Under the azure dragon's assault, Qian Gu Fenfeng remained completely unscathed.
Blue light flowed over Vast Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie's four-word Battle Armor, Vast Sea Universe. His Sea God Helmet radiated a profound divine light, and the vast expanse of waves beneath his feet rose and fell with his thoughts.
Yet his heart jolted. A god-level physique...?
Fighting spirit surged from this veteran Limit Douluo, and his authority over the sea spread outward. Boundless water vapor formed layer upon layer of water domains, enveloping the surroundings. He raised his eyes, gazing solemnly at the figure standing in midair opposite him.
Qian Gu Fenfeng's Martial Soul, the Coiling Dragon Staff, lay horizontally at his side. Ancient coiling-dragon patterns flowed across its dark-gold shaft, while his body was encased in a suit of dark-crimson, gold-embellished four-word Battle Armor-Burning Sky Coiling Dragon.
The armor plates were engraved with reliefs of dragons coiling upward. Billowing crimson flames constantly spilled from the gaps, and every plate carried a heavy, imposing might that could crush everything.
He lightly tightened his grip, and the Coiling Dragon Staff hummed and trembled, layers of scarlet flame igniting along its shaft.
Chen Xinjie's expression sharpened. Not daring to underestimate him in the slightest, he swept out both arms. "Vast Sea Swallowing Heaven!"
In an instant, hundreds of millions of tons of seawater surged into the sky, condensing into an azure sea dragon thousands of zhang long, far more awe-inspiring than before. Its head roared furiously as it lunged straight at Qian Gu Fenfeng, bearing water pressure that could tear heaven and earth apart and the full power of Chen Xinjie's domain.
The power of water throughout the surrounding sea gathered frantically, and layers of water barriers piled up before the sea dragon. This was one of the greatest killing moves Chen Xinjie could unleash.
Facing the surging might of the vast sea, Qian Gu Fenfeng remained calm and slowly swept the Coiling Dragon Staff horizontally.
Unyielding Staff Technique, third form: Crossing the Mountain.
The dark-gold staff swept out, wrapped in sky-burning flames. There were no flashy variations, only power pure to the utmost.
The instant the surging azure sea dragon struck the waves of flame at the staff's edge, the intense heat vaporized its outer seawater into white mist that filled the sky. Its violent water pressure was forcibly halted by the staff's unstoppable momentum.
The sea dragon's body crumbled inch by inch, seawater scattering across the sky.
Chen Xinjie's heart jolted, and he immediately drove his Soul Power again. The Sea God Helmet blazed with light, and countless laws of water shot out of the sea, raining toward Qian Gu Fenfeng in a lethal storm. At the same time, great masses of seawater transformed into thick walls that pressed forward, layer after layer, seeking to trap his opponent within the domain.
"Vast Sea Domain!"
"A domain? It's useless against me."
Qian Gu Fenfeng took a step forward. The aura erupting from his god-level physique exploded outward, and the flames on his Burning Sky Coiling Dragon Battle Armor surged. His Coiling Dragon Staff danced in rapid succession.
He unleashed Unyielding Staff Technique, fifth form: Rending the Firmament, and seventh form: Suppressing the Wilderness, one after another.
Each wave of the staff's momentum surpassed the last. Rolling flames spread with the wind of its swings, scorching every oncoming water blade into vapor. Layer after layer of water walls shattered beneath the Coiling Dragon Staff's bombardment.
Every strike of that immense, unyielding power drove the entire sea's surface violently downward. The Vast Sea Domain Chen Xinjie had spread out was forcibly compressed by the staff's matchless momentum, shrinking continuously.
With every stroke of the staff, the surrounding space buckled under the burden, fine cracks slowly spreading.
Chen Xinjie clenched his teeth. The blue light of his four-word Battle Armor erupted at full strength, and he poured all his Soul Power into a palm strike at Qian Gu Fenfeng.
"Blue Sea Annihilation Seal!" It blasted out with the full power of the sea.
Qian Gu Fenfeng narrowed his eyes slightly and held nothing back. Unyielding Staff Technique, eighth form: Unyielding World Suppression.
The Coiling Dragon Staff rose high. A dark-gold coiling dragon phantom appeared along its shaft, crimson flames winding around the dragon's body. The unstoppable staff shadow crashed down with the might to crush everything.
BOOM-!
The earth-shaking explosion swept across all of Mingdu.
The palm seal Chen Xinjie had unleashed was shattered by the staff shadow in an instant, and the violent force surged straight into his body along the wind of his palm strike. Blue light shook violently across the surface of his Vast Sea Universe Battle Armor, and several fine cracks instantly split its plates. The tremendous impact sent him hurtling backward hundreds of zhang, slamming him heavily into the ground and throwing up dust and smoke that towered into the sky.
He struggled up out of the sea, unable to stop a mouthful of blood from spurting from his lips. His aura had clearly weakened. His pride as a veteran Quasi-God was shattered before Qian Gu Fenfeng's pure, overbearing power, which grew stronger layer upon layer.
Holding the Coiling Dragon Staff and clad in flame-wreathed Burning Sky Coiling Dragon Battle Armor, Qian Gu Fenfeng stood among the clouds, looking from afar at Chen Xinjie and his unsteady aura.
"Your vast sea cannot withstand a single stroke of my Coiling Dragon Staff. You've lost this battle."
Between sea and sky, the waves gradually subsided. Chen Xinjie gazed at the figure ahead, an indescribable sense of helplessness rising within him. From beginning to end, Qian Gu Fenfeng had overpowered him head-on. He had never even found an opportunity to turn the battle around.
"You... aren't you afraid of the Sea God Family's revenge?!"
"Tonight, the Sea God Family will cease to exist."
"You!"
"Farewell, Vast Sea Douluo."
