Chapter 134: Devouring Yang Wudi
After Dugu Bo's martial spirit evolved into a dragon, his attack power did have a qualitative leap.
However, facing Yu Luomian and Yang Wudi, two powerful soul douluos who were also extreme flow soul douluos, he still felt a huge pressure.
Moreover, he had to distract himself to protect Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, which made his battle even more difficult.
As a soul master with the top beast martial spirit Blue Lightning Tyrannt dragon, Yu Luomian had the strength close to that of a titled douluo, and his attack power was extraordinary.
Yang Wudi was a pure attack-type soul master who had pushed the offensive capabilities of a single attribute to the extreme.
If he fought them head-on, he might end up with both sides injured, which was not worth the loss.
Compared with Yu Luomian, the person who needed to be dealt with more urgently was Yang Wudi.
Because Yang Wudi knew about fairy grass, and his soul power was only level 82, he was easier to deal with than Yu Luomian.
Dugu Bo deliberately mocked Yu Luomian, trying to shake them mentally.
After saying this, his soul power surged, forming a sweeping green wave that rushed toward Yang Wudi.
This attack not only carried deadly poison, but also the terrifying might of the dragon, enough to make any soul master shudder.
Facing the overwhelming strike, Yang Wudi's eyes flashed with solemnity, but instead of retreating, he became more determined to fight.
He guessed that the reason Dugu Bo protected this forest so fiercely was likely because the immortal herb were hidden nearby.
As long as they drove Dugu Bo away or even killed him they might find the immortal herbs.
The Soul-Breaking Spear in Yang Wudi's hand swelled, its tip glowing with immense power, and it clashed directly with Dugu Bo's dragon wave.
The two forces collided violently, unleashing a deafening roar that shook the entire battlefield.
Although Yang Wudi's attack was fierce, Dugu Bo's poison seeped through all defenses.
Even though he tried to block it, traces of poison still invaded his body, gradually slowing his movements.
"Brother Yu, please lend me a hand!"
Yang Wudi, who had always been headstrong, was now forced to ask Yu Luomian for assistance.
However, Yu Luomian had different plans at this time.
He knew that Long Chen could easily kill a Soul Saint.
If he helped Dugu Bo now, Yu Tianheng would be left vulnerable.
Moreover, Long Chen might seize the opportunity to escape.
If he instead dealt with Long Chen, Dugu Bo might attack Yu Tianheng, placing him in even greater danger.
"Take Tianheng away!"
Yu Luomian shouted, ignoring Yang Wudi's plea and flying straight toward Long Chen in midair.
Compared to Dugu Bo, Long Chen was an easier target.
Killing Long Chen could earn him a soul bone—and maybe evenimmortal herbs.
"Brother Yang, hold on a little longer. Once I kill that kid, I'll return to help deal with Dugu Bo."
Yang Wudi knew Yu Luomian was cunning and ruthless.
But he still couldn't resist the allure of the fairy grass, which was why he agreed to venture into the Star Dou Great Forest with Yu Luomian.
As a pure attack-type soul master, all of Yang Wudi's soul rings carried only offensive attributes.
His attack power was immense, but this also made his abilities inflexible.
When dealing with varied opponents, his adaptability was far worse than that of most soul masters.
Dugu Bo, famous for his poison, was the worst match-up for him.
Even though Yang Wudi blocked the toxic light blade strikes, the airborne toxins still invaded his body with every breath.
He felt weaker by the second.
With Yu Luomian refusing to aid him, he began to waver, wanting to escape from the poisonous battlefield.
Although Dugu Bo was focused on Yang Wudi, he kept his attention on Long Chen and the others at all times.
Seeing Yu Luomian withdraw, Dugu Bo immediately intensified his assault, giving Yang Wudi no room to breathe.
"Brother Bo, don't worry about me, I can handle it!"
Long Chen shouted loudly, controlling the Fire Phoenix to brace for Yu Luomian's attack.
He understood this was the perfect chance to kill Yang Wudi and didn't want Dugu Bo to be distracted.
Facing Yu Luomian, Long Chen displayed exceptional combat wisdom.
He used the Fire Phoenix's aerial agility to constantly shift position, causing Yu Luomian's attacks to miss again and again.
The Fire Phoenix radiated intense heat as it flew, spitting flames in counterattack.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon attacks were overwhelming, but in the air, they couldn't lock onto the nimble Fire Phoenix.
Moreover, each strike drained a large amount of soul power.
As long as the stalemate continued, Yu Luomian's strength would eventually be exhausted.
Yang Wudi tried to flee, but Dugu Bo was faster, intercepting him every time.
Suddenly, Yang Wudi's eighth soul ring flared, and the Soul-Breaking Spear pulsed with black light.
He was preparing to unleash all his strength for one final clash with Dugu Bo.
"It's over. Go to hell!"
Dugu Bo's forehead flashed, activating his skull skill—Medusa's Gaze.
One of his strongest trump cards, this skill could shoot twin petrifying rays that could even petrify energy itself.
However, it drained immense mental power, so he never used it lightly.
Yu Luomian's pressure made him uneasy.
He had to finish off Yang Wudi quickly to free himself for the next fight.
In that instant, Yang Wudi and his eighth soul skill were both petrified.
"Xiaochen, swallow him quickly!"
Dugu Bo shouted.
Long Chen didn't hesitate and flew straight toward them.
With the resonating sound of the demonic harp, a giant Taotie phantom descended from the sky and devoured the petrified Yang Wudi in a flash.
It happened so fast that no one could react.
Yu Luomian, witnessing this, was dumbfounded.
In his brief shock, a green-gold light blade suddenly sliced toward him.
Yu Luomian blocked it with his dragon-scaled defenses.
Then, without hesitation, he turned into a blur and shot into the sky.
He knew Yang Wudi was dead.
The battle was lost.
If he stayed any longer, he might meet the same fate.
So, he made the only smart move fleeing this deadly battlefield.
Dugu Bo watched the fleeing figure fade into the sky and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Turning back to Long Chen and the others, his gaze softened.
"Xiaochen, you did a great job."
Dugu Yan ran over joyfully, giving Dugu Bo a big thumbs-up.
"Grandpa, you're amazing! I've never seen you defeat such powerful enemies before!"
Dugu Bo laughed heartily.
"It's all thanks to the immortal herbs Xiaochen gave me. My martial soul evolved. Without it, I wouldn't have stood a chance against two extreme soul douluos."
Long Chen, meanwhile, was focused on Ye Lingling.
She had used nearly all her soul power to heal and support him during the battle.
Now, her face was pale as snow, bloodless and fragile.
"Lingling, are you okay?"
"Brother Chen, I… I'm fine…"
Ye Lingling whispered, and then collapsed into Long Chen's arms.
