The Body Sect Panics! Qian Daoliu Savagely Slashes Du Busi
Possessing a Soul Core allowed a Soul Master to output more Soul Power and make their attacks a little stronger, but it did not bring much of an increase in strength.
Its most crucial function was to restore Soul Power faster, improving endurance and sustaining prolonged combat.
But that alone was enough to drag an evenly matched opponent to death.
After learning that Qian Daoliu had no Soul Core, Du Busi felt a powerful urge to defeat him, along with the confidence to do so.
He immediately unleashed a powerful Soul Skill: "Sixth Soul Skill, Hell Poison Dragon Drill!"
Du Busi's toxins condensed into a gigantic spiraling poison dragon, which drilled forward at high speed.
"Heh, Sixth Soul Skill, Angel's Holy Radiance!"
Qian Daoliu casually waved his hand, and a massive pillar of light condensed in the sky and came crashing down.
Boom!
The poison dragon was crushed bit by bit.
Du Busi held out for a moment before his body was knocked to the ground again, but his face was full of excitement. "Hahaha, without a Soul Core, whether it's Soul Power consumption, recovery, or endurance, you're far inferior to me!"
"I'm perfectly capable of forcing you to burn through your Soul Power quickly. Once it's exhausted, you'll be the one who loses!"
"Though I don't know exactly what this Soul Core you speak of is, if it's only as capable as you've described, then defeating me is still nothing but a wild fantasy on your part."
"And to maintain the power you have in this awakened state, I'm afraid you have to rapidly overtax yourself, don't you?"
High above, Qian Daoliu looked down at Du Busi. He had not used his full strength, but next he would unleash the true power of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul and utterly crush Du Busi.
The corners of Qian Daoliu's mouth rose slightly, his confidence absolute. "In this world, no one has ever dared wage a battle of attrition against a Soul Master of our clan!"
"You know nothing of my power!"
Qian Daoliu's mighty voice echoed between heaven and earth. The next second, a radiant presence instantly enveloped the entire battlefield. "Angel Domain!!"
The domain unfolded.
Qian Daoliu's own power was boosted by thirty percent, while his enemies' power was weakened by ten percent.
The entire domain was also filled with sacred power that purified and dissolved.
Du Busi's expression changed drastically. "What's going on? My Soul Power is rapidly dissolving and vanishing!!"
With the Angel Domain activated, the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul's greatest ability to purify and dissolve had reached its peak.
Soul Cores? Attrition, prolonged battles? The Soul Masters of the Six-Winged Angel Clan had no fear of them!
"The speed at which your Soul Core restores your Soul Power is nowhere near the speed at which I purify and dissolve it!"
"It's time to end this battle!"
As his words fell,
Qian Daoliu instantly charged at Du Busi.
A thirty percent boost and a ten percent reduction amounted to a forty percent gap.
The moment the domain opened, Qian Daoliu attacked fiercely, and Du Busi instantly felt immense pressure.
He was immediately beaten back.
Qian Daoliu's attacks grew fiercer and more forceful as he swung his sword frantically.
After dozens of exchanges, Qian Daoliu struck Du Busi hard across the side of his abdomen.
Spurt~
"Aaagh~" Du Busi screamed as the blow sent him flying.
Although the strike did not do much damage, it sent Du Busi into a complete panic. "No! With just one strike, so much of my Soul Power was instantly purified and dissolved!"
"I'm finished! If this goes on, I'm sure to lose!"
If Qian Daoliu's Sacred Sword, produced by his Fifth Soul Skill, wounded an enemy, it would likewise dissolve a large amount of the enemy's Soul Power, especially in combination with the Angel Domain.
At that moment, Du Busi's Soul Power was rapidly dissolving!
Du Busi had completely lost his footing and his composure. As a result, he gradually grew unsteady in battle and began to leave openings!
Squish~
"Argh!"
Du Busi was struck by another sword blow.
"Where did your smile go? I still preferred that unruly look you had just now!" Qian Daoliu said coldly.
After that second strike, Du Busi nearly fell apart. From then on, Qian Daoliu landed another slash every dozen or so moves.
Du Busi was utterly dominated by Qian Daoliu in the sky!
Squish! Squish! Squish!
"Aaagh!~"
Du Busi screamed again and again as Qian Daoliu savagely slashed him several times in succession.
He was slashed back and forth through the air.
"This is bad! The sect master is being completely beaten down!!"
Seeing Du Busi being beaten savagely in the sky, all the Body Sect's disciples panicked.
Long Aotian's heart sank. "This is bad. If the sect master and the elders are defeated, the Body Sect will be in danger!"
"Quick! Everyone at the Soul Saint realm and above, join the battle!"
"Help the ten elders defeat that level 98 expert first, then have the elders join forces against that level 99 Limit Douluo!!"
"Disciples of the Body Sect, charge with me!!"
A large crowd of Body Sect disciples charged out.
"We're screwed!"
At that moment, Du Busi could no longer smile or act arrogant. All that remained on his face was fear and dread of the crushing consequences he would be unable to bear if he lost.
This was the Body Sect's headquarters. If they lost, it could mean total disaster!
"There's no time! Everyone, retreat into the sect immediately!!"
Du Busi shouted urgently.
He gave it everything he had and, at the cost of being severely wounded by a final strike from Qian Daoliu, finally broke free of his relentless assault and fled back into the sect in a panic.
The other ten Titled Douluo who had been surrounding Golden Crocodile Douluo also retreated at once.
"Quick! Activate the sect's defensive formation!!!"
"Yes!"
The Body Sect's defensive formation activated instantly, with Du Busi as its core.
Du Busi finally began to back down a little, though he still put on a brave front. "Stop first! Let's talk. I can release him, but we have to discuss terms first!"
"Terms? Heh, you're in no position to discuss terms with me now."
Qian Daoliu stood there, imposing and cold, and directly revealed his hundred-thousand-year Ninth Soul Ring.
Du Busi was drenched in sweat and panicking badly inside, but he kept a defiant expression. "Even if you're a level 99 expert, you might not be able to break through our Body Sect's defensive formation!"
"Is that so? Then let's see whether your defensive formation can withstand this strike of mine."
"Ninth Soul Skill, Angel God's Punishment!!"
Boom! Boom!
In that instant, it was as though heaven and earth were splitting apart. The ground shook and the mountains trembled, and the entire Body Sect rocked violently.
In the sky, an enormous sword of light slowly emerged from the clouds.
"Ah..."
Du Busi could no longer keep up his defiance. He did not dare take the gamble.
If the defensive formation failed to hold, they really would be finished. He completely backed down. "Wait! Senior! No more terms. I'll release him! The Body Sect will release him! Please stop fighting!"
"Come to think of it, there's no enmity between our two sides, and we haven't fallen out beyond repair. There's no need for us to fight to the death!"
Just as Du Busi said, there was no enmity between the two sides. Besides, Guang Ling was still in their hands, so Qian Daoliu could not push the Body Sect too hard. Even a cornered dog would jump over a wall.
Qian Daoliu withdrew his power for the time being, his killing intent undiminished. "Bring Guang Ling out first! If he has been mistreated or harmed in your sect these past few days, then today's matter will absolutely not end here!"
