Chapter 172: The Title Douluo Battle Under the Moonlight
"Zhang Lexuan, you truly have extraordinary talent, successfully advancing to the Title Douluo rank."
"However, precisely because of this, a genius like you is perfect for carrying out our Saint Spirit Sect's next great plan."
A cold wind swept by, and beside the Yinming Sword, a man dressed in black appeared, emanating a powerful evil aura.
He wore a sinister smile, and his eyes glimmered with greed and desire.
"What exactly is the Saint Spirit Sect planning?" Zhang Lexuan's face turned grim as she heard the words of the Yinming Douluo, sensing that the Saint Spirit Sect was brewing a terrifying plan.
Her heart filled with both anger and worry. She was determined to uncover the Sect's conspiracy.
"This secret is one that only the dead can know!"
The Yinming Douluo immediately gripped the Yinming Sword, and a blood-red light shot toward Zhang Lexuan. At the same time, his figure vanished from the spot, and a powerful Title Douluo-level attack surged toward Zhang Lexuan.
The blood-red light moved with lightning speed, reaching Zhang Lexuan in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Lexuan didn't dare to be careless.
"Seventh Soul Skill: Silver Moon Avatar!"
The seventh soul ring on Zhang Lexuan lit up, and the crescent moon in the sky shimmered, shining down upon her.
Her body was enveloped in moonlight, becoming sacred and pure.
Facing the seasoned Title Douluo, Zhang Lexuan remained calm.
If it were during the day, she might have hesitated a little, but now with the moonlight empowering her, her strength would be enhanced.
If she could deal with this evil soul master, it would disrupt the Saint Spirit Sect's plans to some extent.
"Heh!"
The deep, low voice of the Yinming Douluo echoed across the valley, and with it, the sinister aura mixed with the stench of decay and resentment erupted.
The shadow of the Yinming Sword Martial Soul behind him slowly materialized, and the soul power that spilled out turned into solid black mist, accompanied by the screams of vengeful spirits.
"Seventh Soul Skill: Yinming Avatar!"
As the Yinming Douluo unleashed his full strength, the entire valley seemed to transform into the entrance to the Nine Underworld Hell.
The trees around them withered instantly, corrupted by the evil force.
Zhang Lexuan's expression became extremely serious as she clearly sensed the immense power of the opponent.
She instinctively activated her soul power to protect her vital points but found that the silver halo around her made a faint sizzling sound when it came into contact with the black mist of the Yinming Douluo.
"Wham!"
In the next second, a ripple of distortion spread through the air.
The Yinming Douluo's figure vanished like a ghost, leaving behind only a faint black afterimage.
Zhang Lexuan instinctively side-stepped, and her right hand flicked three silver light strands that intertwined into a spiderweb behind her.
"Clang!"
The blood-red sword sliced through beside her and struck the ground heavily, leaving a deep crater.
Thus, Zhang Lexuan and the Yinming Douluo erupted into a fierce battle.
"Not good! There is actually a Title Douluo-level evil soul master here. Let's quickly deal with these minions and go help Senior Sister!"
Ma Xiaotao, Dai Youheng, and the others quickly dealt with the weaker evil soul masters.
When they sensed another powerful Title Douluo aura, a trace of worry appeared in their hearts.
They realized at this moment that things here were not simple.
There couldn't possibly be a Title Douluo-level evil soul master stationed here for no reason.
A Title Douluo-level evil soul master of the same rank was stronger than an ordinary Title Douluo.
Senior Sister had just recently advanced to the Title Douluo rank.
Although she was extremely strong, they couldn't be certain whether she could handle the evil soul master.
Ma Xiaotao's eyes flickered with murderous intent as she swiftly retracted her Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul.
In the next moment, a dragon's roar echoed around her, and the Yanhuang Sky Dragon Martial Soul emerged.
Her three 90,000-year soul rings released a powerful aura.
"First Soul Skill: Annihilating Flame!"
Ma Xiaotao unleashed her first soul skill, and a massive torrent of flames erupted from the dragon's mouth.
When the flames touched the black shield protecting an evil soul master, countless distorted faces appeared on the shield's surface, and with a heart-rending scream, the shield shattered like glass.
"Sssss—"
The evil soul master, covered by the flames, suddenly burst into several bloodlines, turning into wisps of green smoke in the orange-purple flames.
The evil soul master let out a tortured howl under the waves of flames.
Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao didn't stop; she intensified the flames, covering the evil soul master's core.
"Roar!"
At that moment, the soul spirit Ma Xiaotao had obtained earlier—the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger—ran to one side to help Ma Xiaotao deal with the evil soul master.
Dai Youheng and the other six people also saw the power of Ma Xiaotao's second Martial Soul for the first time.
Seeing the terrifying flames around them, they couldn't help but shudder.
Sure enough!
As expected from the violent queen, Ma Xiaotao, both of her Martial Souls were this powerful.
At the same time, they couldn't help but feel some sympathy for the group of evil soul masters.
However, they didn't hesitate and continued to join in the battle.
What made them most envious was the soul spirit beside Ma Xiaotao.
Thinking of the fact that the Star Auction House would eventually open up the purchase of soul spirits, they didn't feel as envious anymore.
They hoped that day would come soon.
...
While Zhang Lexuan was battling the Yinming Douluo, the Yinming Douluo noticed his subordinates, the evil soul masters, being slaughtered by the Shrek Academy group.
Especially the leaders Ma Xiaotao, Dai Youheng, and the others, whom he recognized clearly as the current generation of the Shrek Seven Devils.
Each of them had extraordinary talent.
If he could kill them all here, Shrek Academy would undoubtedly suffer a heavy blow.
And for their Saint Spirit Sect, it would be a huge advantage.
"Boom!"
The Yinming Douluo instantly vanished, waving his hand. Blood-red longswords appeared in the air, shooting directly toward Zhang Lexuan.
After pinning down Zhang Lexuan, the Yinming Douluo immediately flew toward Ma Xiaotao.
At the same time, the Title Douluo-level evil soul master power within him was instantly released without any concealment.
A blood-red palm print formed in the air, and it shot toward Ma Xiaotao and the others.
"Be careful!"
Zhang Lexuan's face changed drastically as she saw the blood-red longsword heading toward her. There was no way to avoid it!
As expected, the evil soul master was insidious.
She had been distracted for a moment and allowed the evil soul master to go after Ma Xiaotao and the others.
Zhang Lexuan's eyes flashed with silver light.
"Despicable!"
She looked at the Yinming Douluo, who suddenly turned toward Ma Xiaotao. Her eyes were filled with cold fury.
The evil soul master clearly wanted to use his rank advantage to quickly end the battle.
The blood-red palm print in the air, accompanied by a pungent wind, was about to hit Ma Xiaotao, who was releasing her soul skill.
At the critical moment, Zhang Lexuan suddenly spun and leaped, her black hair sweeping through the moonlight in a silver arc.
Her nine soul rings lit up one by one, and the final 100,000-year soul ring burst with glaring red light.
