To cut weeds, you must remove the roots.
He slowly raised the Inverted Spear of Heaven in his hand, its dark silver tip gleaming with a cold and deadly light on the blood-red battlefield.
Without the slightest hesitation, he aimed at Huo Yuhao's forehead, which was twitching slightly from pain and blood loss and covered in blood and dirt, and stabbed it fiercely.
The sharp blade pierced through the hard skull without any resistance, sinking deep into it until it reached the hilt.
The last faint twitching of Huo Yuhao's mangled body completely ceased.
The sharp tip of the Inverted Spear of Heaven not only pierced the brain but also completely annihilated the very essence of its soul.
Huo Yuhao's body stiffened completely, like a specimen nailed to a pool of blood.
Those eyes, once as deep as the sea, brimming with wisdom and resilience, now completely lost their luster, staring blankly at the gray sky, reflecting the smoke and despair.
Toji expressionlessly pulled the Inverted Spear of Heaven slowly from Huo Yuhao's forehead.
Thick, brain-mixed blood flowed down the dark silver, reversed lines.
He casually swung the short blade, flicking the bloodstains off it onto the scorched earth with a soft thud.
He looked down at the lifeless, mangled body lying in a pool of blood, his deep voice carrying a hint of lingering emotion, echoing clearly in the suddenly silent battlefield:
"The first evenly matched opponent I've encountered in many years."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the severed limbs, the dissected chest and abdomen, and the pierced forehead, a cold smile curving his lips.
"What a pity, the gap is too big."
Their cultivation levels might be comparable, but their battle instincts, honed through countless trials and tribulations and ingrained in their very bones, their bloodthirsty experience that disregards rules and exists solely for Destruction, and their divine bodies that have long transcended mortal understanding...
All of this formed an insurmountable barrier that Huo Yuhao could never overcome, even until his death.
" Yuhao!!"
A piercing scream, filled with endless despair, grief, anger, and heart-wrenching madness, exploded out like a thunderclap from the heavens or the wail of a vengeful ghost from hell.
The power in the sound even made the space itself tremble.
On the edge of the battlefield, Tang Wutong witnessed her lover's entire ordeal: his chest and abdomen were ripped open, his legs were crippled, his arms were severed, and finally, his skull was pierced by the Inverted Spear of Heaven.
At that moment, her world collapsed.
Her long, wavy, light blue hair danced wildly in the surging golden energy, like a burning flame.
Those pale blue eyes were now completely filled with a blood-red, golden rage burning with the power to Destruction everything.
Her exquisite face was distorted by extreme pain and rage, and her sacred aura was completely ignited and transformed by overwhelming killing intent.
The enormous Light Dragon God Butterfly behind her completely transformed into the wings of the Dragon God, burning with tangible golden Lie Yan.
The Golden Dragon Spear in his hand erupted with an unprecedented, pure, and Destruction golden light that seemed to pierce through the entire world.
She is no longer the inheritor of the Light Dragon God Butterfly.
She is a vengeful goddess driven mad by the loss of her beloved.
"I'll make you pay with your life!!!"
With this blood-soaked roar, Tang Wutong transformed into a golden comet burning with the fury of burning the world and carrying the world-destroying power of the Dragon God. With a terrifying aura that could crush space and tear apart laws, she charged recklessly toward Toji, who had just shaken off the bloodstains on her blade.
Wherever the Golden Dragon Spear pointed, space shattered inch by inch.
Before the spear tip even arrived, the divine dragon's might, powerful enough to incinerate souls, was already like tangible lava, scorching and distorting the air around Toji until it boiled.
Faced with this deadly attack, which came with hatred and was enough to severely injure or even kill Limit Douluo, Toji merely raised his eyelids slightly.
In those beast-like eyes, there was no fear, only a hint of boredom.
"A synthetic monster that depends on others... It doesn't even have its own path, yet it dares to swagger in front of me?"
Toji's deep voice carried undisguised contempt.
Just as the Golden Dragon Spear was about to pierce his chest, Toji's Inverted Spear of Heaven vanished instantly, replaced by the Soul Liberation Blade. The broad blade did not parry, but instead, with a graceful, almost superb trajectory, it moved from bottom to top, precisely striking the point of force on the shaft of the Golden Dragon Spear.
A piercing clang of metal rang out, and Tang Wutong felt an irresistible, tyrannical, and unreasonable force emanating from the gun barrel, like a volcanic eruption.
The Golden Dragon Spear, infused with all her anger and divine power, was actually knocked from her tightly clenched hands by this seemingly casual upward thrust.
The Golden Dragon Spear transformed into a blinding golden light, spinning and whistling as it flew into the sky, finally embedding itself deeply into a scorched hill in the distance, where it hummed and trembled on its own.
The immense recoil caused Tang Wutong's arms to go numb, her Qi and Blood to surge, and her forward momentum to come to a halt!
"What?"
Tang Wutong's pinkish-blue eyes were filled with disbelief and horror.
Her all-out attack was so easily neutralized by her opponent?
In the instant her mind trembled violently, Toji's Soul Liberation Blade, still in full swing, traced a dark red, ferocious arc in the air, accompanied by a shrill whistle that seemed to tear through space, as it slashed horizontally toward her slender neck.
The speed is extremely fast.
The shadow of death loomed over her instantly. Relying on the instinct of a drop of Dragon God Bloodline, Tang Wutong managed to lean back at an incredible, flexible angle at the last second.
The cold blade, carrying an aura of Destruction, grazed past the tip of her nose.
The sharp gust of wind from the blade even left a thin trail of blood on her exquisite face.
They narrowly escaped the decapitating blow.
But Tang Wutong's back was already soaked with cold sweat.
"Oh? Your reaction wasn't slow." A hint of surprise finally flashed in Toji's eyes.
It seems that this synthetic monster attached to Huo Yuhao is not entirely without merit.
" Martial Soul Avatar!!"
Tang Wutong launched a desperate counterattack, letting out a sharp shriek.
A burst of dazzling golden light erupted instantly.
Her long, wavy, light blue hair grew wildly, like a flowing galaxy.
Sacred dragon scales instantly covered her entire body, forming a magnificent and sturdy set of dragon scale armor.
The Light Dragon God Butterfly behind her expanded and solidified rapidly, transforming into enormous Golden Dragon wings that blotted out the sky. The vast Dragon God's Power surged into her limbs and bones like a flood bursting its banks.
Strength, speed, defense, and dragon might reached an unprecedented peak at this moment.
Tang Wutong's aura surged instantly, even faintly touching the threshold of Demigod.
Her crimson eyes were fixed on Toji, her dragon claws clenched loosely. Although she had lost the Golden Dragon Spear, her hands, covered in dragon scales, were her strongest weapons.
"Kill!"
Tang Wutong transformed into an even more violent golden lightning bolt, her dragon wings flapping, stirring up a Destruction storm, and she charged fiercely towards Toji! Her dragon claws tore through the air, carrying the power to shatter stars.
