Chapter 598 Self-Destruction? Dream on!
"Boom! Crack—"
Accompanied by a series of sounds like shattering glass, the gray-black armor of the Flood Dragon-Headed Bull-Bodied Beastman was now covered with several shocking cracks!
Moreover, with the second strike of the Soul-Guiding Blade, not only did the blade strike his defenses, but some of the blade energy also penetrated into the Flood Dragon-Headed Bull-Bodied Beastman's body, wreaking havoc within him for a while.
At this moment, the Flood Dragon-Headed Bull-Bodied Beastman deflated like a punctured balloon, howling and spitting out a mouthful of blood, which turned a dark brown color where it landed.
If it hadn't been for his own treasured sword blocking the attack, the Flood Dragon-Headed Bull-Bodied Beastman's defenses would probably have shattered directly. Moreover, his internal organs would have been directly torn apart.
Of course, at this moment, the Flood Dragon-Headed Bull-Bodied Beastman's treasured sword could not withstand the impact and shattered into several pieces.
Moreover, judging from Xuan Mo's subsequent actions, the previous strike, which could only be considered the second strike, already possessed such power, causing the Flood Dragon-Headed Bull-Bodied Beastman to feel a chill run down his spine.
Because at this moment, he had no confidence in withstanding the third strike.
"Tsk tsk, you can actually withstand the second strike…"
Xuan Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, "Since you're still alive, then taste my third strike! Witness its true power!"
With that, he drew his Soul-Guiding Blade, and the Flood Dragon-Headed Bull-Bodied Beastman's body erupted with sword energy, blood gushing forth like a fountain.
Actually, Xuan Mo had learned this technique after returning to Douluo Continent, when he consulted Sword Douluo and Tang San about swordsmanship and the principles and techniques of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique.
Sword Douluo, considering Xuan Mo's status as the son-in-law of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, naturally didn't hold back. And Tang San, as his brother, naturally wouldn't be stingy with the principles and techniques of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, telling him the core of it all.
Therefore, Xuanmo combined the two and, based on his own design, created a sword technique called "Vertical and Horizontal - Dragon Slayer Blade."
Moreover, in the year since he set sail, Xuanmo had almost abandoned the cultivation of his soul power, instead focusing on stabilizing his own cultivation and continuously refining this sword technique.
When Xuanmo created the "Vertical and Horizontal - Dragon Slayer Blade," even the Ice and Fire Dragon King almost called it a divine single-target attack.
Its power goes without saying, but its greater value lies in its similarity to the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique: this move is not just a single attack, but a triple attack.
After the move is unleashed, it splits into three blade beams. After the first beam disappears, the second beam follows immediately, with twice the power of the first. Then, the third beam follows the second, and at this time, the power of the third beam is about twice that of the second!
Imagine the tragedy that would occur if an opponent of the same level encountered such an outrageous skill and clashed head-on with it.
The dragon-headed, bull-bodied beastman felt the power of the third beam and staggered back several steps, his heart sinking to the bottom.
He knew he was doomed today.
With that thought, the dragon-headed, bull-bodied beastman's bloodshot eyes glared at Xuan Mo.
As the third deadly strike was about to come, a ruthless glint appeared in its eyes, and it plunged its claws into its mouth.
The next second, a small, blood-red "bun" appeared on the tip of one of its claws, seemingly formed from congealed red blood, and outlined a pattern familiar to Xuan Mo.
Then, gritting its teeth, it pressed the "red-patterned bun" on its forehead, and as the mark began to glow, it grinned maliciously and lunged at Xuan Mo.
"A fearless madman… trying to play the self-destruct game with me?"
Xuan Mo's lips curled into a smile, and then his soul-guided blade moved.
"You wish!"
"How could this be! Ah—"
The dragon-headed, bull-bodied beastman, preparing to self-destruct, awoke with a start at this sight, letting out a blood-curdling scream!
At that moment, Xuan Mo's third strike was about to strike!
As the blade magnified in his eyes, the serpent-headed bull-bodied beastman was utterly horrified. Before he could even react to his self-destruction, the third blade slammed into him! A dazzling blade of light instantly engulfed the beastman!
"Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish!"
Xuan Mo coldly watched his blade strike the beastman, knowing that the beastman probably thought he could die with him. However, in the end, he only shared a close embrace with the third blade.
With a deafening roar, the power of the third blade, combined with the force of the self-destruction, reduced the beastman's body to ashes, releasing a plume of smoke.
At that moment, the charred and stench of the beastman assaulted the nostrils of everyone present, including the beastmen.
Xuanmo pinched his nose and muttered, "Looks like the self-destruction power of this dragon-headed, bull-bodied beastman is really fierce."
Seeing their leader dead, the beastmen panicked and were slaughtered by Mulin.
Xuanmo asked, "Mulin, can you still hold on?"
Mulin, no longer trying to be brave, flapped his dragon wings. "My soul power is almost exhausted; I can't even maintain my Martial Soul True Body."
"Me too. Those three strikes almost drained my soul power. However, if I unleash a Gluttonous Divine Thunder Tribulation, the remaining soul power will be barely enough."
With that, the remaining soul power gathered in his sixth soul ring.
As a dazzling red light flashed, the sky above the beastmen changed, instantly shrouded in dark clouds.
"Boom..."
Nine thunder dragons converged in the air and then slammed down!
In an instant, it was as if the filth here had been cleansed by lightning from the heavens. The beastmen, torn apart by the nine lightning dragons, were reduced to almost nothing or fatally wounded.
After doing all this, Xuan Mo dispelled his Martial Soul Possession state, returned the Soul Guidance Blade to his "Vajra," and simply sat aside, watching Mu Lin display his divine power!
Even more speechless, he took out a roast chicken, sipped some wine, and simply watched the show.
Meanwhile.
After Mu Lin had dealt with the remaining beastmen one by one, the spatial rift at the altar suddenly collapsed.
The evil soul masters guarding the vicinity were shocked upon seeing this and immediately contacted their leader.
In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the leader of the evil soul masters arrived. Seeing the spatial rift collapse, he clearly realized something, and his expression changed.
"Damn it, it seems all of Lord Holy Spirit's subordinates are dead!"
Without time to think, the evil spirit master turned and roared, "Quickly tell the sect leader and elders that Lord Holy Spirit's vanguard has been wiped out!"
