The Final Battle!
Second Soul Skill: Tiger Roars Through the Mountain Forest!
The black sound waves pressed down on her head, and Bi Ji felt a sharp pain in her mind, slowing her movements by half a beat.
The next instant, the tiger's claws tore through the rain and shoved hard into her shoulder.
"Sizzle--"
Her light green dress was torn, revealing five bloody welts on her shoulder, from which bright green blood gushed out instantly.
Before the wound could spread, a rich emerald light emanated from her body, and the damaged flesh contracted and healed at a visible speed, returning to its original state in just a few breaths, without even leaving a scar.
The number one healing-type Soul Beast in the Douluo Continent, its severed limbs can regenerate in an instant.
Huo Pojun's eyes darkened when he saw this.
"Even if you recover quickly, I'll wear you down!"
He pounced again, the Black Wind Tiger's claw shadows covering the sky. Cang Xuan also attacked from the side, his cane pointing, sweeping, smashing, and flicking, each strike locking onto her movement. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, were like a net that tightened and tightened.
Bi Ji withstood several blows, but the anxiety within her only burned brighter.
She knew that in a battle between experts, a moment of distraction could lead to death.
But that was Bai Yushan, the child she had been searching for for over a year, the one who held her and called her "sister."
The sounds of battle below suddenly subsided.
Dead silence.
Bi Ji's heart sank, and a fierce aura surged from within her.
You're asking for it!
She stopped dodging, her emerald wings suddenly unfurled to their fullest extent, and she transformed into a streak of emerald light, actually charging headlong into the two attackers' midst.
Her fingers spread open in the downpour, her nails gleaming with a cold, emerald-like light, as she clawed at Huo Pojun's face.
Huo Pojun was caught off guard by her sudden counterattack and hastily blocked with his arm.
"Clang!"
The claws gripped the arm armor of the Battle Armor, creating five sparks, and the immense force made his arm go numb.
Bi Ji, seizing the advantage, flapped her wings, and one half of her wing, enveloped in emerald light, slashed out like a knife, aiming for his neck.
Huo Pojun tilted his head back to avoid the attack, the wing blade grazing his Adam's apple and severing a few strands of his mane.
Cang Xuan's cane slammed down from behind, accompanied by the roar of a dark golden dragon, aimed straight for her heart.
Bi Ji didn't turn around; instead, she slammed her shoulder backward.
"Bang!"
Her shoulder clashed hard with her cane, causing her to stagger forward half a step. However, using the force of the impact, she flicked her finger at Cang Xuan's wrist.
Withering and Flourishing Transformation to the Jade Skies and Yellow Springs!
A flash of gray and green light appeared at his fingertips, and Cang Xuan's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly withdrew his hand, and his cane spun once in mid-air before he was able to deflect the life-and-death force.
The three men rapidly shifted positions in the torrential rain, their close-quarters combat roaring in unison.
Once Bi Ji unleashed her fighting style, her Ferocious Beast close-combat instincts were fully revealed. Her wing blades could both slash and block, her claws were cunning and ruthless, and each of her shoulder ramming, elbow strikes, and knee strikes carried the Soul Power of the Emerald Swan accumulated over four hundred thousand years. Despite withstanding the combined attack of two Super Douluo, she actually managed to create an oppressive force.
Cang Xuan and Huo Pojun exchanged a glance, both seeing seriousness in each other's eyes.
If this drags on, by the time the number one Ferocious Beast in the core area of Star Dou region reacts, they won't even have a chance to escape.
"Reveal your true form!"
Cang Xuan shouted sharply, and his Seventh Soul Ring lit up.
Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul Avatar!
The dragon-headed cane in his hand suddenly grew to several meters long, with dark golden dragon scales appearing on its body. The azure dragon at the top of the cane came to life, and a dragon's roar shattered the rain curtain, merging with his body.
At the same instant, Huo Pojun's Seventh Soul Ring also lit up.
Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul Avatar!
The dark tiger shadow swelled behind him, transforming into a Black Wind Tiger King several meters tall, with ferocious fangs and blood-red tiger eyes. He lunged forward, his entire body merging with the tiger king's phantom, and the black wind around him transformed into countless Wind Blade.
The auras of the two Martial Soul Avatar erupted simultaneously, forcefully suppressing Bi Ji's attack.
Cang Xuan swept his massive cane horizontally, a dark golden dragon shadow swirling around, sealing off all the space to her left.
Eighth Soul Skill: Azure Dragon Suppresses the Prison!
"Boom--"
The staff slammed down, and the dark golden dragon shadow transformed into a mountain-like phantom, pressing down on Bi Ji. The surrounding air was locked, and the rain hung suspended in mid-air.
As Bi Ji closed her wings, the Emerald Guard was activated at full power. At the same time, she pressed out with her left hand, and the Tai Chi pattern of the Cycle of Life and Extinction Withering and Flourishing Transformation in her palm.
"Clang--!"
The light shield collided with the dragon's shadow, and Bi Ji's body was forced downwards. The cliff beneath her feet cracked, and rubble mixed with rainwater fell down the precipice.
Before she could even catch her breath, Huo Pojun's deadly move had already arrived.
Eighth Soul Skill: Black Wind Purgatory!
The Black Wind Tiger King roared, and the pitch-black storm transformed into a massive vortex that swallowed her whole. Within the vortex, countless Wind Blade and tiger claws clashed and tore open several bloody gashes on her body in an instant.
Bi Ji groaned, and her emerald blood splattered in the black wind, only to be forcefully suppressed by her life force.
She knew she couldn't afford to be passively attacked any longer.
"Withering and Flourishing in Shared Silence; Flourishing and Withering of Ten Thousand Trees!"
She clasped her hands together in front of her, and a green light arrived first. Countless emerald vines sprang from the black vortex, growing wildly and binding the Wind Blade and tiger claws layer by layer.
Immediately afterwards, the gray-black death energy exploded, all the trees withered at the same time, the dead vines contracted violently, and the entire black wind vortex was forcibly crushed.
Huo Pojun spat out a mouthful of blood, and the phantom of the Tiger King dimmed slightly.
But Cang Xuan's Ninth Soul Ring has already lit up.
Ninth Soul Skill: Azure Dragon Without Regret!
With this strike, he concentrated all of Super Douluo's Soul Power into the tip of his staff. The dark golden dragon detached from the staff and flew out with an indomitable momentum. Every inch of its horns, whiskers, and claws was wrapped in destructive power, heading straight for Bi Ji's heart.
Huo Pojun also reddened, and his Ninth Soul Ring lit up.
Ninth Soul Skill: Tiger Slays the Firmament!
The Black Wind Tiger King soared into the air, its massive claws raised high above its head, flanking the Azure Dragon from the left and right, sealing off all of Bi Ji's escape routes.
The Ninth Soul Skill of the two Super Douluo simultaneously struck.
There's no way to avoid it.
Bi Ji's emerald green eyes, however, calmed down.
She remembered the figure below the cliff, still seemingly dead, and her promise to protect him.
She took a deep breath, and a burst of emerald light and gray mist erupted around her. The Emerald Sea Life Domain spread out behind her, transforming into a vast, emerald-green sea of life.
Instead of defending herself, she met the two deadly attacks head-on, pressing down with both hands simultaneously.
"Withering and Flourishing in Shared Silence."
"Boom--!!!!"
The three-colored rays of light collided violently above the cliff, and the violent Impact swept in all directions. Several huge cracks were torn open in the cliff wall, and the rain was shaken back into the sky, clearing away the rain curtain that covered an area of dozens of feet in radius in an instant.
Bi Ji's body was struck as if by a heavy blow, blood gushing from her mouth, large patches of feathers falling from her wings, and she was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the cliff wall, creating a deep crater.
Her wound was so deep that the bone was visible, yet with a flash of emerald light, it healed at an astonishing speed.
Injuries can heal, but the consumed Soul Power and fatigue cannot.
She knelt on one knee among the rubble, her chest heaving violently, her breathing heavy like a bellows, her emerald eyes dimmed, and her aura became unstable.
Cang Xuan and Huo Pojun weren't much better off.
Cang Xuan leaned on his cane, one arm hanging limply at his side, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his Battle Armor riddled with cracks. Huo Pojun's tiger king phantom had dissipated; he knelt in the rain, his chest heaving violently, his Battle Armor torn in several places.
The three faced each other across the torrential rain.
No one made another move.
They had all reached their limits.
Bi Ji's Life Perception suddenly trembled.
She suddenly raised her head and looked ahead, a glimmer of light appearing in her previously dim eyes.
