"Your martial soul can summon two monsters!"
Qian Daoliu had heard from Spirit Kite Douluo that Tianlin possessed the ability to summon a monster even stronger than himself, but he never expected them to be this powerful.
The two colossal beings before him had undoubtedly reached the level of Super Douluo.
Counting Tianlin himself, a mere Soul Sage, he was able to exert three times the strength of a Titled Douluo.
Of course, Qian Daoliu was overestimating; just maintaining those two summoned gods was already draining all of Tianlin's mental power and soul power. He had no energy left for his combat. Yet, even so, the combined might of War God and Mountain God was not something ordinary Titled Douluos could withstand.
"So, this is Xiao Tian's current strength… That boy from back then has completely surpassed me!" Qian Renxue murmured. Although she possessed the powerful Seraphim Martial Soul and could defeat ordinary Titled Douluos one-on-one, she still couldn't win against a Super Douluo for now.
"No wonder you fell for him, Young Mistress. Looking through history, there may never have been such a monstrous genius." She Long approved of Qian Renxue's infatuation for the first time. Living day-to-day with such a person, falling for him was hardly strange.
"With such power, it seems I'll have to get serious too." Qian Daoliu finally launched an attack, his body turning into a stream of light, moving so quickly that neither Chen Xin nor Tianlin could react.
But he didn't attack them; instead, he darted straight at Ning Fengzhi. In battle, taking out the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda first was the correct move.
"Eighth Soul Skill, Nine Treasure Divine Light Protection!" Ning Fengzhi immediately activated his self-defense skills.
"Heh, Fifth Soul Skill—Angel's Holy Sword!" Qian Daoliu slashed at the pagoda. The divine light, which could withstand six attacks from a Titled Douluo's ninth soul skill, actually cracked from just one of his strikes.
Ning Fengzhi was injured, blood trickling from his mouth, but he continued to support his allies; the light of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda did not diminish.
"Not bad defense. Though this is only my fifth soul skill, in my hands its power exceeds a Titled Douluo's ninth soul skill by several times. But how many times can you block it?" Qian Daoliu sneered.
He raised his sword again, but before it could fall, Tianlin and Chen Xin intervened. A giant blade blocked the second strike—it was the War God's broadsword.
At the same time, a mountain descended from the sky—the Mountain God transformed energy into a peak. If it targeted the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, it could flatten the whole sect in an instant. Tianlin had to control the force, retracting the mountain immediately after hitting Qian Daoliu to avoid hurting his allies.
But he worried too much. Qian Daoliu raised his right arm, and the Angel's Holy Sword turned into a wave of light, shooting upward. The wave started at the mountain's base and instantly reduced the entire peak to dust.
Such destructive power was breathtaking.
Tianlin couldn't help but wonder—wasn't the Douluo world supposed to be a low-level fantasy? How could Qian Daoliu casually unleash strength that could shatter mountains? A mountain is far heavier than the 108,000-jin Sea God's Trident.
How could an Ultimate Douluo struggle to lift a trident, yet destroy a mountain so easily?
Tianlin forgot that he could pierce through a mountain with a single strike, and Chen Xin had once flattened a peak with one sword. Those were purely physical attacks; Qian Daoliu's attacks were energy-based—perhaps not stronger, but certainly more thorough in destroying matter.
Qian Daoliu looked at Tianlin, "Jun Tianlin, you are indeed strong. But to me, whether you summon one or two such monsters makes no difference. At most, you just cost me a bit more effort."
The situation was dire for Ning Fengzhi and Tianlin. Gu Rong had to protect the sect, and Dugu Bo and Yin Yang were unable to assist—they could only clench their fists in frustration.
But facing Qian Daoliu's relentless advance, Tianlin remained calm. "Master, I think it's about time we showed Senior Qian Daoliu a little surprise."
He'd been powerless against Qian Daoliu but had bought Chen Xin time. Now, Chen Xin's soul power was at its peak.
"Indeed, time to get serious." Chen Xin nodded. Until now, he hadn't shown his full strength. Now, having witnessed Qian Daoliu's power, he could no longer hold back.
"Seventh Soul Skill—Seven Kill True Body!"
"My body is the sword—man and sword as one." Chen Xin activated his martial soul true body, then used his self-created soul skill, merging with the Seven Kill Sword.
The Seven Kill Domain opened, and he unleashed Execution Lock Blade at Qian Daoliu.
Qian Daoliu sensed deadly danger from this strike. With the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's supreme support, Chen Xin's attack power doubled; now, with martial soul true body and sword fusion, his strength was easily five times that of Golden Crocodile Douluo, also at level 98. This blow surpassed even Ultimate Douluo. At this moment, no attacker on the continent could rival Chen Xin.
"Roar!"
Two furious roars rang out. War God and Mountain God surrounded Qian Daoliu, one slashing with the Divine Purgatory Slash, the other punching with Collapsing Mountain Fist.
"Angel Light Wall!" Qian Daoliu conjured a barrier around himself—a variant of the Angel Light Shield, a self-created skill with even greater defense.
But the combined assault of Mountain God and Chen Xin had reached its peak.
Especially Chen Xin's sword—it pierced the defense in one blow. Qian Daoliu couldn't dodge.
"Seventh Soul Skill—Seraphim True Body!" Helpless, Qian Daoliu finally activated his martial soul true body, and the Angel Domain.
Few had ever forced him to this state; with the Seraphim True Body, his power surged several times. The giant angel form caught the Seven Kill Sword bare-handed and pushed it back, making it seem like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had no chance.
But Tianlin had been waiting for this moment.
He instantly switched to the Demon Sword, dismissing the two gods to save his soul power.
"Seventh Soul Skill—Demon Sword True Body! Third Soul Skill— Flow of Wind and Water!"
"Demon Suppression Domain—Activate!"
Since the Demon Sword's restoration to the divine level, the Flow of Wind and Water skill had been strengthened. In the state of the martial soul true body, it could dispel all sub-divine status effects, including martial soul true bodies.
"What?!" The Seraphim True Body vanished in an instant, and the Angel Domain was suppressed by the Demon Suppression Domain. Caught off guard, Qian Daoliu's strength plummeted, and Chen Xin's sword pierced his chest.
"Grandfather!" Qian Renxue panicked, wanting to rush to Qian Daoliu's aid.
"Don't worry, Young Mistress—the Grand Worship is invincible. He'll be fine," She Long hurriedly held her back. The battlefield was no place for Qian Renxue; her strength, at most, barely surpassed a level 92 Titled Douluo—she was no match for Tianlin.
