Chapter 95: Countdown to Xiao Wu's Capture
🕑 Added 2025-04-11 09:05:03 +0000 UTCThe dull sound resonated in everyone's hearts, and those who heard it couldn't help but feel an immense pressure.
"Seventh Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Dragon True Body!!"
Seeing the Titan Giant Ape getting closer, Dugu Bo immediately activated his martial soul's true form.
He then controlled his evolved and much sturdier Jade Phosphor Dragon, charging headfirst toward the Titan Giant Ape.
Knowing the terrifying aftermath of battles at their level, Dugu Bo absolutely could not let the shockwaves of the fight affect Xiao Yu and the others.
The Titan Giant Ape also noticed this strangely shaped serpent-like martial soul charging at it.
Seeing this, the Titan Giant Ape sneered disdainfully.
As the embodiment of invincible physical strength, aside from its elder brother, the Sky Azure Bull Python, the Titan Giant Ape had never lost a physical clash with any other spirit beast.
Thus, the Titan Giant Ape also charged forward, intending to use its powerful body to send its opponent flying.
However, reality seemed to exceed the Titan Giant Ape's expectations.
"Boom!!"
"Roar!!!"
As it collided with the serpent-like martial soul, the Titan Giant Ape was utterly shocked to find that, in terms of physical strength, its opponent was not inferior to it at all.
The two were evenly matched.
"Seventh Soul Skill, Seven Kill True Body!!"
Seeing Dugu Bo take action and guessing his intentions, Sword Douluo didn't hesitate either, immediately activating his martial soul's true form.
After Dugu Bo used his massive body to halt the Titan Giant Ape, Sword Douluo swiftly moved in to attack.
Hearing Sword Douluo's move, Dugu Bo quickly retreated to give him space.
As Sword Douluo activated his martial soul's true form, his first and sixth soul rings lit up simultaneously.
"First Soul Skill: Sharp Sword Out!"
"Sixth Soul Skill: Myriad Swords Return to Origin!!"
In no time, countless sword clones, enhanced with increased attack power, appeared like raindrops behind Sword Douluo and shot toward the Titan Giant Ape.
As the number one offensive weapon in the world, the Seven Kill Sword's terrifying sharpness and lethality forced even the thick-skinned Titan Giant Ape to defend with all its might.
Otherwise, it would surely be injured.
Feeling the pain from the wounds inflicted by the Seven Kill Swords, the Titan Giant Ape stomped its foot heavily on the ground.
It let out a furious roar.
"Gravity Domain!!"
Following the roar, the Seven Kill Swords, which had been rapidly closing in, were suddenly pulled down by the newly appeared gravity domain, losing their speed advantage.
The Titan Giant Ape casually swatted away the flying swords.
At the same time, Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo, who were also within the domain's range, felt as if their feet were glued to the ground.
Every step felt incredibly difficult.
Fortunately, due to consuming the Earth Dragon Golden Melon, the effects of the gravity domain weren't too severe for Dugu Bo.
Sword Douluo, on the other hand, relied on his formidable 96th-level soul power to mostly ignore the gravity.
"Titan Sky Cannon!"
Meanwhile, the Titan Giant Ape took advantage of the moment when Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo were restrained by its gravity domain.
It opened its mouth and unleashed a deep yellow energy wave.
If this energy wave exploded, while they might be fine, it would undoubtedly affect Xiao Yu and the others.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo didn't hesitate any longer.
His ninth soul ring lit up.
"Ninth Soul Skill: Jade Phosphor Dragon's Roar!"
The Jade Phosphor Dragon raised its massive head and unleashed a jade-green energy wave.
"Hummm"
"Boom!!!"
Instantly, the two energy waves—one jade-green and the other earth-yellow—collided.
The resulting shockwave affected all living beings within a one-kilometer radius.
If it weren't for Yu Luomian forcefully activating his martial soul's true form to shield them, Xiao Yu and the others would have been blown away.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran, who had the lowest cultivation levels in the group, clung to each other.
Having met once before, they naturally gravitated toward someone they knew.
Both of them looked pale as they watched the divine battle ahead.
Meng Yiran finally witnessed what a battle between Title Douluos truly looked like.
Compared to her grandparents' martial soul fusion skill, this was on a completely different level.
For a moment, Meng Yiran felt she had made the right choice.
"Xiao Wu..."
The Titan Giant Ape hadn't expected its opponent to have a similar attack to counter its own. Seeing the massive explosion, it instinctively looked toward Xiao Wu's location. Seeing that Xiao Wu, though somewhat disheveled, was unharmed, it felt relieved.
However, the Titan Giant Ape didn't expect that its glance would also be noticed by Xiao Yu.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu smiled thoughtfully.
"The Titan Giant Ape shouldn't appear in the outer regions of the forest. According to the original story, the only reason it would appear here is..."
Then, as if realizing something, Xiao Yu's back sprouted a pair of dragon wings.
He quickly flew into the air and, upon closer inspection, spotted a pink figure amidst the green forest.
Seeing this figure, Xiao Yu shouted to Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo, "Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Dugu, help me hold off the Titan Giant Ape. Don't let it leave!"
Then, ignoring the protests of Sword Douluo, Dugu Bo, and Yu Luomian, he soared into the sky and flew toward the area behind the Titan Giant Ape.
"Xiao Yu!!"
Seeing Xiao Yu fly away, Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo were both shocked.
What was Xiao Yu planning to do at such a critical moment?!
However, Xiao Yu's dragon wings had been enhanced by a system reward, allowing him to fly at full speed.
In the time it took Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo to react, Xiao Yu was already far away.
Seeing Xiao Yu flying toward Xiao Wu's location, the Titan Giant Ape panicked.
It immediately tried to abandon the fight and return to save Xiao Wu, but Sword Douluo and Dugu Bo wouldn't let it leave so easily!
Especially since Xiao Yu had just asked them to hold off the Titan Giant Ape and prevent it from leaving.
Thus, Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo stubbornly kept the Titan Giant Ape in place, dragging out the fight.
Although they were still confused, seeing the Titan Giant Ape's frantic reaction shortly after Xiao Yu left, they began to suspect something.
Xiao Yu must have discovered something—something that could unsettle the Titan Giant Ape and wasn't too powerful, which was why Xiao Yu chose to act alone.
Therefore, despite their confusion, they only needed to hold off the Titan Giant Ape and trust Xiao Yu.
"..."
"Xiao Wu, run!!!"
