"What a terrifying Soul Skill!"
Xiao Yan stared at the space in mid-air, which seemed to have been frozen in time, a deep sense of apprehension flashing in his eyes.
If these two hadn't been pushed to their limits, they probably wouldn't have revealed such a trump card.
Just as Xiao Yan was shocked by the terrifying fusion technique of Yue Guan and Gui Mei...
Suddenly, within the domain, every muscle on the Titan Giant Ape's body, which was over ten meters tall, swelled up as if inflated.
Its black fur stood on end, exuding a wild and violent aura.
The golden and black halo binding it trembled violently under the impact of this brute force, and countless fine cracks appeared on the surface of the halo.
Both Yue Guan and Gui Mei's already pale faces changed simultaneously.
They could clearly feel the Titan Giant Ape struggling to break free of the Two Extremes Stillness Domain using pure brute force.
"Hold on!"
Yue Guan gritted his teeth, pouring his Soul Power into the halo as if it were free.
The veins on his forehead bulged, and his face was ashen white from overexertion.
The Gui Mei beside him was also suffering; the black mist around the edge of his Gui Ying was dissipating at a visible speed, and his aura was constantly weakening.
Both of them were doing their utmost to maintain the operation of the Two Extremes Stillness Domain.
Because they knew very well that once the domain was broken, in their current state, they would be no match for the Titan Giant Ape's next attack.
They were also incredibly frustrated at that moment, even under normal circumstances.
Let alone just a Titan Giant Ape.
Even if the other king beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, the Sky Azure Bull Python, came, it would still be controlled by them when faced with their combined Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
However, they are currently in a weakened state, so even if they forcibly unleash their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the effect they achieve is still less than half of their peak performance!
However, at this stalemate, no one noticed that another presence was silently approaching from the depths of the dense forest.
Its aura was completely different from the Titan Giant Ape's ferocity; it was deeper and colder, like an iceberg slowly moving in the deep sea.
When it finally peeked out from the shadows of the dense forest, the temperature of the entire forest seemed to drop several degrees in that instant.
Tiny ice crystals began to condense in the air, shimmering with a cold, silvery light under the moonlight.
A thin layer of white frost quickly covered the surface of the tree remains crushed by the Titan Giant Ape on the ground.
A huge, blue snake head slowly emerged from the shadows of the tree canopy.
The snake's head was as big as a house, and its entire body was covered with palm-sized blue scales. Each scale gleamed with a cold, eerie light under the moonlight, as if it were carved from the finest jade.
Its serpentine eyes stood upright, and deep within them burned two chilling flames, devoid of any emotion.
It flicked out a long, forked tongue, each flick accompanied by a hissing sound. The surrounding air rapidly condensed into ice crystals with each breath, which then fluttered down onto the forest floor.
Sky Azure Bull Python
It is another core Soul Beast king from the Star Dou Great Forest!
Sky Azure Bull Python!
The Sky Azure Bull Python appeared and immediately opened its huge mouth, from which a stream of bluish-white cold air gushed out from the depths of its throat.
The cold current was not liquid, but a kind of extremely cold energy that was almost tangible, and wherever it passed, even space itself seemed to be frozen.
The air was frozen into countless tiny ice crystals, and the trees instantly transformed into glistening ice sculptures upon contact with the cold air.
"Oh no!"
Yue Guan's pupils suddenly contracted.
He saw the cold current rushing towards him and the Gui Mei, but he used all his strength to maintain the Two Extremes Stillness Domain.
Once they stop, the Titan Giant Ape will break free of its restraints, and caught in a pincer attack, they will likely be in grave danger!
Gui Mei's reaction was a fraction faster than Yue Guan's.
At the critical moment, he forcibly withdrew his ghostly energy, and the black halo shattered instantly after losing the support of the Gui Mei.
Gui Mei grabbed Yue Guan by the collar, his figure flashing in the shadows, narrowly avoiding the direct impact of the cold current with Yue Guan.
However, the cold wave covered such a vast area that even though the two managed to avoid the core area, the edge of the cold wave still swept across half of their bodies.
Yue Guan felt an indescribable chill spread rapidly from the left side of his body that had been swept away. His left arm went numb in an instant, and a layer of frost half an inch thick condensed on his shoulder.
His golden Soul Power became sluggish and stagnant under the erosion of this cold current, and his whole body seemed to be immersed in a pool of ice water, and even his blood was about to freeze.
The Gui Mei around him were in no better shape, their Gui Ying forms constantly shrinking under the corrosive effects of the extreme cold.
The originally spreading black mist was forced into a ball by the cold air, and the Gui Mei figure was almost half the size it was when it first entered the Star Dou Great Forest.
Just as the Gui Mei withdrew its power, the Two Extremes Stillness Domain shattered with a deafening roar.
The Titan Giant Ape felt the restraints on its body vanish instantly. It roared to the sky with exhilaration, and its fists slammed into Yue Guan and Gui Mei like two giant hammers.
The two had just regained their footing from the impact of the cold wave and had no time to react. They could only hastily use their remaining Soul Power to protect their vitals.
"Boom! Boom!"
Two punches landed solidly.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei were sent flying like two pebbles, both spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.
The two men crashed through more than a dozen ancient trees before finally coming to a stop, landing in a patch of ravaged bushes. The flying pebbles and wood chips buried most of their bodies.
"Boom!"
The next moment, a burst of blood energy erupted from the spot where Yue Guan and Gui Mei landed, followed by a stream of light that instantly shot out—it was Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
The Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape appeared simultaneously.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei then realized that their mission was impossible to complete.
Even the slightest hesitation would have been enough for the two great Soul Beast to kill them here, despite their severe injuries.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yue Guan and Gui Mei used a secret technique to forcibly reduce their own life force and suppress their injuries, then fled into the distance.
The Sky Azure Bull Python slowly swam to the side of the Titan Giant Ape, its huge azure snake head raised high, its vertical snake eyes coldly staring at the two who had completely lost their fighting ability.
Its forked tongue flicked in and out, hissing with a hint of cold mockery.
"This is the fate of those who trespass into the core area."
The Sky Azure Bull Python's voice was completely different from that of the Titan Giant Ape.
The Titan Giant Ape's voice was deep and ferocious, carrying a primal sense of power.
The Sky Azure Bull Python's voice, however, was cold and deep, like an echo from the deepest part of the sea, each word carrying a chilling coldness.
The Titan Giant Ape shook the blood off its fist, leaving a dark red stain on its fur, the source of which was unclear—whether it was Yue Guan's or Gui Mei's.
It glanced at the fading light on the horizon, then looked up at the Sky Azure Bull Python beside it, a hint of displeasure appearing on its ferocious face.
" Da Ming, you're stealing my fight again."
I haven't had enough fun yet. These two may be a bit weak, but at least they can last a little longer.
The Titan Giant Ape's tone carried a hint of resentment, like a child whose toy had been taken away.
It and the Sky Azure Bull Python have been companions in the Star Dou Great Forest for ten thousand years. Their way of communicating is completely different from that of humans, without so much formality and hypocrisy.
The Sky Azure Bull Python glanced at it indifferently, its snake eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
"A swift victory is crucial. Letting them linger here will only attract more humans."
Xiao Yan stood in mid-air, watching the streak of light disappear beyond the Star Dou Great Forest.
He did not pursue them.
Even though Yue Guan and Gui Mei were seriously injured, they were still Titled Douluo.
Even a cornered mouse can kill a cat, let alone two Titled Douluo.
Once they leave, he will have achieved his goal for this trip.
However, his situation did not become safer after Yue Guan and Gui Mei left.
On the contrary, he was now facing two beings who were far more terrifying than Yue Guan and Gui Mei combined.
He could feel those two gazes fixed firmly on him.
The Titan Giant Ape was the first to turn around, its large, scarlet eyes filled with undisguised scrutiny and curiosity.
It looked Xiao Yan up and down, its gaze less hostile than when it had looked at Yue Guan and the Gui Mei, and more curious, as if examining a rare object.
It tilted its enormous head, spewing two white jets of air from its nostrils, seemingly contemplating how to deal with the human who had just witnessed such a spectacle.
The Sky Azure Bull Python remained even more silent.
Its enormous snake head slowly turned, its vertical snake eyes lingering on Xiao Yan for a long time.
The moonlight shone on its blue scales, reflecting a layer of cold, sharp light.
It didn't speak, but simply watched Xiao Yan quietly, its gaze carrying a complex meaning that Xiao Yan couldn't quite fathom.
There was no murderous intent in his gaze, but it wasn't exactly friendly either.
Xiao Yan slowly lowered his body, landing at the same height as the two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
He knew very well that maintaining a fighting stance was meaningless when facing these two true overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Xiao Yan landed on top of a broken tree that had been smashed by the Titan Giant Ape. He steadied himself by holding onto the rough bark with his left hand, and slowly raised his right hand to solemnly bow to the two enormous creatures in front of him.
"This humble one, Xiao Yan, thanks both seniors for their assistance."
His voice wasn't loud, but it echoed clearly in the silent, dense forest.
The reason he stayed was because, relying on his Soul Division Martial Soul, he didn't sense any killing intent from the two Soul Beast.
However, as he spoke, the Dou Qi of the Venerable Feng swirled continuously within his meridians.
The moment the two Soul Beast in front of him made any move, he immediately turned and fled!
