Demon Soul Great White Shark King
A quarter of an hour later, a small boat was lowered from the lead warship. Qian Jun Douluo and Demon Subduing Douluo boarded it and rowed toward Sea God Island.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo also quietly took flight, following a short distance behind them.
When the small boat reached the waters ahead, a dorsal fin suddenly began circling it. Judging by the fin's size alone, the Soul Beast beneath the surface had to be seven or eight meters long.
This was Demon Soul Great White Shark territory, so naturally no other predators would come here.
Demon Subduing Douluo summoned his Martial Soul directly. It was a Coiling Dragon Staff twelve feet long, with a golden dragon coiled around it.
Without using a Soul Skill, he thrust the staff straight beneath the surface.
Ripples spread across the water, followed by a surge of blood.
Sharks had an astonishing sense of smell, and Demon Soul Great White Sharks were no exception.
In the blink of an eye, waves began rising around the small boat, and more tail fins appeared nearby.
The Demon Soul Great White Sharks had come to investigate after smelling the blood of their own kind.
A wave struck and capsized the boat.
The two men immediately leaped clear of the boat and rose into the air.
Qian Jun Douluo flicked his right hand, and a Martial Soul identical to the twelve-foot Coiling Dragon Staff in Demon Subduing Douluo's hand appeared in his grasp.
The brothers exchanged a glance. Nine Soul Rings appeared around each of them, and an intense pressure instantly blanketed the area for dozens of meters around.
Then the Soul Rings behind them blazed. Their Coiling Dragon Staffs instantly expanded several times over, and with a deep dragon's roar, they spun fiercely outward, one to either side.
Bang-
Two tremendous impacts merged into one. The long staffs circled around them before returning to their hands, leaving only two arcs filled with bloody light.
Along the Coiling Dragon Staffs' paths, any Demon Soul Great White Shark they brushed was injured, and any they struck was killed.
In the blink of an eye, blood had dyed the surface of the sea red, and the many Demon Soul Great White Sharks abandoned their kin's corpses and fled into the distance.
"Humans, you've gone too far!" a woman's voice rang out, brimming with anger.
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo both looked toward the voice and saw a tall young woman standing on the surface of the sea in the distance.
The young woman wore an outfit resembling white leather. Her long gray-blue hair spilled down her back, reaching all the way to the ground, just as Xiao Wu's did when she let hers loose. Her eyes were gray-blue as well, and her fair skin had a faint gray-blue sheen. Her nose was high-bridged, and her face had somewhat chiseled angles, though they did not look out of place.
Anyone else would surely have been drawn to her looks and would not have attacked immediately. The Demon Soul Great White Shark had appeared in human form because she did not want to fight right away. Although she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, she was facing two Titled Douluo, after all.
But she was mistaken. Qian Jun and Jiang Mo had come precisely to take her life.
"A human? No, that's not right. She has a strong Soul Beast presence and can speak human language. She's a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
"This is the Demon Soul Great White Shark King. Second brother, take her down."
Demon Subduing Douluo nodded. The Seventh Soul Ring behind him flashed with black light, and the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand expanded several times over once more. He gripped it tightly and smashed it toward the Demon Soul Great White Shark. Qian Jun Douluo did the same.
"Damn it!" the Demon Soul Great White Shark cursed, then leaped toward the sea. Dazzling gray-blue light immediately flickered over her perfect figure, and the image of a huge white shark enveloped her body.
But from the moment the Demon Soul Great White Shark appeared, those hiding nearby had already been making their way over.
"Two Extremes Stillness Domain."
Brilliant silver flames immediately erupted from Gui Mei, while a layer of golden flames rose from Yue Guan beside him. At that same instant, the nine Soul Rings around each of them lit up almost simultaneously, making their silver and gold flames even more dazzling.
The two faced each other and clasped all four hands. Their bodies abruptly merged, and their eighteen Soul Rings instantly condensed into a massive gold-and-silver ring of light that silently flew out.
Suddenly, heaven and earth seemed to turn gold and silver, and everything around them seemed to come to a complete standstill. Yue Guan and Gui Mei's bodies vanished the moment the gold-and-silver ring formed. The enormous ring flew into the air and, in the blink of an eye, became a gigantic halo over a hundred meters in diameter.
At that very moment, the young woman, gray-blue light flashing over her body, abruptly froze in midair.
The skill before them, shining with the light of gold and silver rings, was called the Two Extremes Stillness Domain in full. It was a dual-attribute domain that could simultaneously freeze an opponent's skills and movements.
Even the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, who had suppressed the strength within her body to assume human form, could not change back.
"Elders, we can only trap this Soul Beast for a while. Please act quickly," Yueguan's voice rang out from the gold-and-silver halo.
The next moment, the light abruptly contracted, and a layer of gold and silver light appeared around the Demon Soul Great White Shark King's human body, forcibly pinning her within that small space.
Qian Jun Douluo and Demon Subduing Douluo said no more. Their two Coiling Dragon Staffs erupted with supreme might and smashed down at the young woman enveloped in gold and silver light.
Bang-
The halo shattered instantly. Yue Guan and Gui Mei immediately fell from the sky, while the young woman was sent flying.
Not even a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in its true form could withstand the full-powered strike of two level ninety-five Power Attack System Titled Douluo head-on, much less in human form.
The Demon Soul Great White Shark King flew more than a thousand meters away, and Qian Jun and Jiang Mo immediately took flight in pursuit.
At this point, the ten warships began advancing toward Sea God Island.
Even though many of them had just been slaughtered by the two Titled Douluo, the Demon Soul Great White Sharks still dutifully tried to attack the fleet.
But the Soul Douluo and Soul Saints aboard the ships were no pushovers either. They blanketed both sides of the ships with a dazzling array of Soul Skills without regard for their consumption, while two Titled Douluo also sent out blades of wind and Sword Qi from time to time.
The ten warships sailed slowly but steadily toward Sea God Island, leaving behind one Demon Soul Great White Shark corpse after another, their causes of death unknown.
Just as everything on the fleet's side was progressing smoothly according to plan, a brilliant golden light suddenly erupted in the distance, in the direction of Qian Jun and Jiang Mo.
The distance was too great for anyone to see what was happening over there. Because of Qian Jun Douluo's orders, the Titled Douluo did not dare go and investigate the details either. They could only protect the fleet as it landed on Sea God Island.
But surely nothing could go wrong when two level ninety-five Titled Douluo were dealing with a gravely wounded Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?
Jun Yan, standing aboard the foremost warship, had already activated his Rinnegan in silence and could see the distant situation with perfect clarity.
As he released a Soul Skill at the Demon Soul Great White Sharks below, he sent out a Wood Clone, then the clone and his main body instantly exchanged positions.
