Domain Expansion - War God's Domain
In an instant, the Infinite Tsukuyomi was blanketed by black and white colors. The sound of a thunderous war drum echoed across the entire domain, shaking the illusory sky and causing the God Tree to tremble violently.
A vast battlefield manifested within the overlapping domains. Ancient banners with the symbol of a white tiger fluttered in the freezing wind, and the ground transformed into cracked earth stained with the blood of countless fallen warriors.
The temperature plummeted even further as Huo Yuhao's Imperial Perpetual Ice and Yin-Yang Saint Crane domains fused with his Infinite Tsukuyomi, creating a nightmarish frozen hellscape filled with falling black and white feathers.
Despite mobilizing his own domain, the pressure emanating from three, high-tier domains stacked together without any conflict had still suppressed Dai Mubai.
'Okay, I've severely underestimated this punk. Three domains, three freaking domains without conflicting with each other!? HUH?! Even Xiao San wasn't this fucking absurd back in the day!'
If he knew that this was just Huo Yuhao's clone, what kind of expression would he have?
Naturally, a clone wouldn't have been powerful enough to suppress the entire Sea God Pavilion Elders and even contest Dai Hao, possessed by Dai Mubai, who could rival a Quasi-Demi God. This clone was created to be a mere scout, only having a limited pool of soul power and spiritual power.
It's all thanks to the Life Core, blessing him with a fraction of the Ancient Golden Tree's immense energy that he had been able to dish out most of the original's techniques without exhausting himself to explode.
The Life Core said a fraction, but in truth, it was enough to rival a 900,000 year old soul beast or a Quasi-God Limit Douluo!
The energy it gave to him would take tens of thousands of years in order to replenish it, but it was worth it if it meant regaining its original authority over the world!
'One hour. My precious children are fighting against the usurpers, the parents of Tang San, in the Hollow Earth, so the integration process wouldn't be long. Protect me for that long, and I promise you, for as long as you stay within this world—no God would ever be able to scheme against you ever again!'
Hearing those tempting words and the immense energy filling his body, how could Huo Yuhao not go along with its wishes?
Also, Dai Hao was here as well!
Now this became personal.
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, feeling the passive ability of his domain feeling him with newfound strength and endurance. He let out a beastly roar, shattering ice and feathers, releasing rays of light energy that landed on the ground.
As the rays of light landed they transformed into hundreds of soldiers wearing ancient armor, in close inspection, they were clearly of Star Luo descent!
These were soldiers that Dai Mubai had fought besides during his tenure as the Star Luo Empire's Emperor for a time. Even though it had been short, he had managed to raise powerful soldiers and they had been a great help to him during his divine trial.
"For his Majesty!"
"For our God!!"
"LAY DOWN YOUR BODY, MIND, AND SOUL FOR HIS EXCELLENCY!! SPILL THE BLOOD OF OUR ENEMIES!!"
"FIGHT! FIGHT!"
"FIGHT FOR THE GOD OF WAR!!"
War God's Domain was a powerful domain that offers amplification to the user's attacks and defenses, continuous replenishment of stamina and endurance, manifesting allies of one realm cultivation below, and suppresses the enemies with the unyielding spirit of war. The most terrifying part of this domain is that Dai Mubai and his allies would grow stronger as the battle goes on longer.
Right now, with Dai Hao's mortal body, Dai Mubai was now as strong as a God Officer with hundreds of peak-ranked Soul Douluo soldiers materialized around him.
Normally it would entrap the enemies in a separate space, but Huo Yuhao's stacked domains had forcefully suppressed it, turning the entire battlefield into chaos.
"My soldiers, rage! My soldiers, FIGHT!!"
"LET THIS WORLD KNOW OF YOUR VALOR ONCE MORE!" Dai Mubai took charge, with hus soldiers letting out battle cries as they fearlessly charged behind him towards the massive Susanoo.
"How cute," Huo Yuhao coldly smirked, his six soul rings manifested fully around him with resplendent colors: platinum-gold, red, red, red, red, red! After the events at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he had absorbed the 300,000 origin energy of Skydream to elevate his second, third, and fourth soul rings to a 100,000 years old.
His fourth blood-red soul ring shone eerily, pulsing with overwhelming killing intent.
"Mass Hysteria."
The fourth soul ring lit up brightly. An invisible wave of dark, twisted spiritual power erupted outward from the Susanoo, instantly washing over the charging army of soldiers.
"Aaaagh!!"
In the next breath, the fearless war cries of the Star Luo soldiers turned into maddened screams. Their eyes turned bloodshot as uncontrollable rage and bloodlust consumed their minds.
They began attacking everything in sight, including their own comrades.
"Die! Die! DIE!!!"
"Brothers?! No, they've turned traitors! Kill them all!"
"What are you doing?! Aaaargh—!"
Chaos erupted within Dai Mubai's summoned army as they turned on each other in a brutal frenzy, hacking and tearing at their fellow warriors without mercy. The once-coordinated charge collapsed into a bloody free-for-all.
"What?! My soldiers! You—" Dai Mubai was shocked, and this moment of hesitation would've earned him a nice cut from Huo Yuhao's Susanoo sword. But he quickly shook off his surprise, blocking the attack with his claw.
After all, within his domain, his allies would have damn near immunity to spiritual attacks so long as his fighting spirit and morale was high. The battle had just started, so why would he be feeling discouraged?
For the first time since Huo Yuhao had gotten Jianxin's second soul ring he was going to use it in real combat.
Sixth soul ring, 1st Soul Skill: Yearning Full-Moon, Darkness and Light as One: Increases Huo Yuhao's Yin-related attributes by 500%; spiritual power, water, ice, darkness, lightning, illusion-based techniques. With this amplification, as well as the support from his own domains, Dai Mubai's army stood no chance against his spiritual attacks.
The Susanoo raised its right arm, the bright blue sword in its hand blazed with black flames and crackled with destructive crimson lightning as it slashed towards Dai Mubai, constantly trying to dodge them, but only ending up trying to take them on with his body or with his own soul skills.
Space, time, gravity— Huo Yuhao had complete dominion over them within his Yin-Yang Saint Crane domain. Dai Mubai couldn't dodge any of his attacks.
Sixth soul ring, 2nd Soul Skill: Praising Sun, Light and Shadow Eternal: Increases Huo Yuhao's Yang-related attributes by 500%; physical attributes, fire energy, and light energy.
With Amaterasu and Heavenly Tribulation Lightning coating the swords, the Susanoo became a moving catastrophe of destruction.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The giant blue warrior unleashed a relentless barrage of slashes. Each swing of its blade left behind arcs of black indestructible flames mixed with crimson lightning that tore through space itself.
"D-Damn it!" Dai Mubai was forced into a purely defensive posture. His massive tiger claws repeatedly clashing against the flaming sword.
The heavenly lightning was bad enough, it was a power above mortal methods to counter so he was forced to mixed in some of his own divine consciousness to stop it from wrecking havoc within his host's body. Only to realize that these black flames weren't normal either, they couldn't be put out!
The divine power from his remnant soul was churning intensely, by his estimation, if he doesn't stop using it within 30 minutes. Dai Hao's body would collapse!
'This descendant of mine is truly a monster among monsters. He'd be the perfect successor of mine if he had a partner of the Zhu family, pity. Damn his father! If he had prioritized a bit more to his family, this monster would've been known as the greatest genius that the Dai family has ever produced! He wouldn't have become Xiao San's enemy and he would've become a strong God that could back us up in the upcoming battle against those otherworldly demons.
A prolonged battle won't cut it. It's time to end this!' His tiger eyes gleamed.
Sparks of divine power and black flames exploded with every collision, sending violent shockwaves that disintegrated any nearby maddened soldiers unfortunate enough to be caught in the crossfire.
Huo Yuhao's sixth soul ring continued to shine brilliantly.
The Yang amplification from "Praising Sun, Light and Shadow Eternal" surged through his body and into the Susanoo. The giant's armor glowed with a faint golden-white luster beneath the icy blue, drastically increasing its physical power and destructive output. The already terrifying sword strikes now carried the weight of mountains behind them.
Dai Mubai was slammed backward repeatedly, deep gashes appearing across his massive White Tiger body. Blood spilled from the wounds, turning some of the waters of Sea God Lake into a deep red color.
Inside the Susanoo's head, Huo Yuhao's expression remained ice-cold and merciless.
"How pathetic. Is this all a God could do? Laughable, truly and utterly laughable!
My ancestor, one of the original Seven Shrek Monsters that had stood at the pinnacle of the world ten thousand years ago and left his name in the annals of history, and you couldn't even make your enemy bleed."
He let out cold laugh, "Looks like it is true. Without your wife to complete the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Hell White Tiger, you're just useless!"
"Boy..." A deep gruntal voice came out of the massive White Tiger's mouth, blood dripping from its sharp teeth. "You have some nerve, to talk that way to your elder."
"Yeah well, fortunately. I wasn't taught to respect those from the Dai family."
"Hahaha. What a punk of a descendant that I have—hmm? Oh? Well, it seems like my lineage isn't completely useless." A bright flash of light emitted from his body, almost like staring straight at the sun, blinding anyone looking at him.
Except for Huo Yuhao, who looked at him with furrowed brows.
"True Body Possession, huh."
He looked as the massive White Tiger shrunk, now back to his human form but with magnificent white armor adorned with tiger stripes and golden accents. A majestic white tiger phantom hovered behind him, roaring silently and the pressure emitting from his body exploded.
Huo Yuhao's eyes widened, revealing all six eyes with his EMS turning into the familiar shade of purple. The killing intent emitting from his body skyrocketed, to the point the entire sky had turned completely red.
"So, you've finally come out."
"Father!"
