The instant the thought crossed Dai Weisi's mind, a cold mechanical voice rang out in his head.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully drawn a Power Attack System Titled Douluo guardian!] [Character: Xiong Jin] [Soul Power Level: Level 95 Power Attack System Titled Douluo] [Title: Terrorclaw] [Martial Soul: Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear] [Soul Ring Configuration: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red] [Evaluation: claws that could pierce anything, a pure destroyer.]
The information panel flashed past.
Under the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape's watchful eyes, the space behind Dai Weisi twisted without warning. Like a stone dropped into a still pond, it sent invisible ripples spreading outward.
The next moment, an immensely imposing figure stepped out.
He was a burly man over two and a half meters tall, his muscles knotted like slabs of granite stacked together, brimming with explosive power.
He wore a simple beast-hide vest, and his exposed skin was bronze. His eyes were calm, yet held a ferocity capable of tearing everything apart.
"This... this is..."
The Sky Azure Bull Python's enormous ox eyes narrowed sharply, and for the first time, horror entered his voice.
The Titan Giant Ape's fur stood on end. From the man who had appeared so suddenly, he caught a scent...
The oppressive presence of one of his own kind!
"Level ninety-five?"
Dugu Bo sucked in a breath, his eyes nearly popping out of his head.
Wasn't having a level ninety-three Defense System Titled Douluo subordinate enough? And now a level ninety-five Power Attack System monster had appeared?
Where had he come from?
How was a level ninety-one Titled Douluo like him supposed to live with this?!
Zhu Zhuqing was even more shaken. She stared blankly at the newly arrived man, then looked at Dai Weisi, who stood on the serpent's head with an indifferent expression. A deep sense of helplessness welled up in her heart.
So he had possessed the absolute strength to crush everything from the very beginning.
"Zhu Yun."
Dai Weisi paid no attention to everyone's shock and simply called out to her.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Zhu Zhuyun understood at once, a flicker of fervor flashing through her eyes. She stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Dai Weisi.
"Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Hell White Tiger!"
As the two shouted in unison, dazzling golden light and dark black light soared into the sky, intertwining and merging in midair.
Its fur looked as though it had been cast from molten gold, with brilliant golden light flowing faintly between its black stripes. As its tiger eyes opened and closed, they radiated the supreme majesty of a ruler surveying the world.
"Roar!"
The Hell White Tiger let out a roar that shook the mountains and forests, announcing the arrival of a king.
"Xiong Jin, the Titan Giant Ape is yours."
Dai Weisi's voice came from the Hell White Tiger's mouth.
"Yes, Master."
The burly Xiong Jin answered in a deep, muffled voice. Fixing his gaze on the mountain-like Titan Giant Ape, he curled his lips into a cruel grin, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth.
"Shi Mo, defend. Dugu Bo, tie them down and attack with me."
The orders were brief and clear.
"Attack!"
Before the words had faded, four figures sprang into motion!
Xiong Jin was the first to strike!
He immediately unleashed his Martial Soul Avatar and transformed into a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. The earth beneath his feet exploded, and his massive body became a streak of dark golden light as he charged straight at the Titan Giant Ape without dodging or evading!
"Roar!" The ferocious presence thoroughly roused the Titan Giant Ape's savagery. He roared in anger and met the charge, swinging fists larger than millstones!
There were no fancy Soul Skills, only the purest clash of strength!
"Boom!"
The instant fist met claw, a visible white shock wave exploded outward in a ring! The ground beneath them instantly caved in dozens of meters, and countless enormous cracks spread like a spiderweb!
For the first time, the Titan Giant Ape's giant fist, which had never failed him, was stopped head-on!
Xiong Jin's right hand was already covered in a dark golden layer of horn, and five razor-sharp black claws, each half a meter long, had sprung out to clamp firmly around the Titan Giant Ape's fist!
Dark Gold Dreadclaw!
"Again!"
Battle intent surged in Xiong Jin's eyes. His other hand likewise transformed into a dreadclaw and raked viciously at the Titan Giant Ape's chest!
The Titan Giant Ape was startled.
He could feel the sharpness radiating from those claws; they were capable of tearing through the defenses he took pride in!
He hurriedly blocked with his other hand, and the two giants immediately grappled. Every collision made the earth tremble and the sea of trees topple!
On the other side, the Hell White Tiger moved as well.
It stepped through the air on all fours, leaving a brilliant golden afterimage in its wake. Even under the suppression of the Sky Azure Bull Python's Slow Domain, it still pounced swiftly at him!
"White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"
An incredibly concentrated pillar of golden light erupted from the tiger's mouth, tearing through the air and heading straight for the Sky Azure Bull Python's ox head!
The Sky Azure Bull Python did not dare be careless. He opened his mouth and spat out a pillar of azure light in response.
"Boom!"
Gold and azure light collided in midair, exploding into a rain of light that filled the sky.
Yet under cover of the explosion, the Hell White Tiger appeared like a ghost at the Sky Azure Bull Python's flank!
Fourth Soul Skill, White Tiger God-Annihilating Destruction!
An enormous tiger claw, wreathed in a terrifying presence that tore at the soul, slammed viciously into the Sky Azure Bull Python's serpentine body!
"Hiss!"
The Sky Azure Bull Python let out a pained hiss as the blow sent his massive body flying sideways. A claw mark had appeared on his hard scales, blood streaming from the wound!
His enormous ox eyes were filled with horror!
Why were the strength and speed of this fused White Tiger so overwhelming?!
"Old poison, are you just watching the show?"
Dai Weisi's displeased voice came from the Hell White Tiger's mouth.
"Coming, coming!"
Dugu Bo jolted and hurriedly channeled his Soul Power.
He did not dare displease his master.
A Soul Ring lit up on Dugu Bo's body, and he opened his mouth, spewing great clouds of poisonous mist over the two Soul Beasts.
Although the poisonous mist could not deal them fatal damage, it could greatly interfere with their senses and corrode their Soul Power.
The longer the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape fought, the more alarmed and frustrated they became.
The burly man called Xiong Jin was absurdly strong. He held a steady advantage against Er Ming in a head-on clash, and his claws could pierce anything, leaving wound after wound on Er Ming's body.
The enormous golden tiger was fast and attacked with fierce force. Though the damage that followed was not great, it left the Sky Azure Bull Python at a loss for how to respond!
Even more infuriating was the gray-clad old man called Shi Mo. He was like a stone in a latrine: both foul and hard.
Whenever they tried to turn the tide with a wide-area attack, that earth-yellow Black Tortoise Shield always appeared at just the right moment, blocking every attack without budging an inch.
There was also an annoying venomous snake beside them, constantly spitting poison and shooting from the shadows. It wasn't fatal, but it was revolting!
"Big brother! This isn't working! We can't beat them!"
The Titan Giant Ape's anxious roar rang out. His body was already covered in blood.
The Sky Azure Bull Python was also beginning to think of retreat.
As long as the green mountains remained, there would be no fear of running out of firewood. Protecting Xiao Wu was what mattered most!
"In that case, prepare to leave!"
A flash of resolve passed through the Sky Azure Bull Python's enormous ox eyes. He abruptly summoned all his strength, and a terrifying presence far greater than before began to build.
"Sky Azure Annihilation Divine Light!"
At the same time, the Titan Giant Ape, who had been clashing head-on with Xiong Jin, suddenly unleashed all his strength and forced Xiong Jin half a step back. He raised both fists high and activated his Gravity Domain at full power, holding nothing back!
"Titan Sky Shatter!"
An azure pillar of light imbued with annihilation and a dark golden ball of energy that seemed ready to crush the sky, one high and one low, hurtled toward Dai Weisi's side at the same time!
It was a combined attack from two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts fighting with all their strength! Its power was enough to make any Titled Douluo below level ninety-five turn pale!
"Master, be careful!"
Shi Mo and Xiong Jun's expressions changed at the same time. Both instantly stepped in front and unleashed their strongest Soul Skills.
Yet just as the world-shattering attack was about to land, the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape abruptly turned their massive bodies and sped like lightning toward the depths of the Lake of Life, without looking back!
