Chapter 283

The substantive killing intent and sword intent that were already there suddenly burst forth; countless pure-white ripples spread from Gu Xuan's body, endless killing intent instantly permeated, overlapping with the Deep Sea Devil Whale King's whale domain.

"Killing God Domain Evolution Skill — Asura Hell — Open!"

This is the evolved domain that Gu Xuan created by merging his Killing God Domain with his own sword way; enemies within the domain are suppressed by twenty percent, while Gu Xuan's own strength increases by twenty percent; at the same time, endless sword qi imbued with immense killing intent crisscrosses throughout the domain.

The power of this sword qi is comparable to a Titled Douluo's ninth soul skill; those struck by it suffer light injuries at best, heavy injuries or death at worst, and because the wound is attached to endless sword intent and killing intent, it hardly heals.

The whale domain is absolutely top-tier; even against Gu Xuan's evolved domain it remains unaffected, and both Gu Xuan and the Deep Sea Devil Whale King are affected by each other's domains, but after neutralization their strengths remain evenly matched.

But within the domain, the power each releases becomes more free and powerful.

"Water — Lightning — War God Hammer!"

On the Deep Sea Devil Whale King's pair of massive hammers, two attributes that are nearly extreme begin to flow; this is actually a combined soul skill, and its power is already far greater than the sum of its parts.

But Gu Xuan showed little expression, for he felt no fear at all.

"Seven Slaying Sword Art, Tenth Form: One Sword Pierces the Heavens!"

At the same time, Gu Xuan's right hand had turned into five dark-gold claws each one meter long; as he swung them, five dark-gold rays burst forth, overlapping and adding to the heaven-shaking sword he had just slashed, locking onto the Deep Sea Devil Whale King for an attack.

"Dark Gold Terror Claw External Soul Bone Skill: Sky-Tearing Claw!"

The heaven-shaking sword qi and the five dark-gold energy blades combined in the void into a single "kill" character; under the ultimate killing intent and overbearing sword intent, the power of this "kill" character reached its peak.

As the Deep Sea Devil Whale King wielded his twin hammers, the War God Hammer softened his own soul power, and his momentum combined with the near-extreme water and lightning elements, fully fusing his physical strength with his soul power; the combat power he exerted was equally terrifying.

"Bang bang bang!"

The Deep Sea Devil Whale King swung his massive hammer, facing Gu Xuan's "kill" as it struck repeatedly; although the whale king was still being blasted backward without cease, the momentum of Gu Xuan's attacks gradually waned.

And Gu Xuan naturally could not simply let the Deep Sea Devil Whale King keep defending; he suddenly threw his dragon sword, his body brimming with sword intent, and the dragon sword in midair transformed into a thirty-meter-long sword dragon, endowed with endless sword momentum as it flew toward the Deep Sea Devil Whale King to slay it.

"Sword Dragon Eight Wings External Soul Bone Skill: Sword Way — Flying Dragon Breaks Heaven One Sword!"

At the same time, Gu Xuan's left arm burst forth with azure light, his entire arm seeming to transform into an azure dragon arm, with azure dragon scales appearing in overlapping rows.

Only see Gu Xuan's dragon claw loosely gripping; in his palm, azure thunder exploded with a roar, and terrifying thunder suddenly condensed.

"Azure Ox Python Left Arm Soul Bone Skill: Azure Heaven-Annihilating Thunder!"

As the left arm swung out, a thunder dragon completely condensed from azure lightning suddenly appeared, and together with the sword dragon they locked onto the Deep Sea Devil Whale King like twin dragons playing with a pearl!

Terrifying killing intent surfaced; the Deep Sea Devil Whale King only felt his scalp explode, having just neutralized Gu Xuan's "kill" character, now another combined soul skill arrives?

Moreover, just as Gu Xuan activated these two soul bone skills, a ring of silver-white light spread from his body surface; when the Deep Sea Devil Whale King was enveloped by this ring, he felt his speed slow down, while the opponent's attacks actually sped up.

In just an instant, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King understood what this was: a domain! Another domain!!

What made the Deep Sea Devil Whale King find it unbelievable was, how could a human possibly possess two domains?! Ordinary human Soul Masters being able to have one domain is already a rare talent; facing this human whose strength is outrageously strong is already enough, yet he also possesses two domains?

"Time Domain!"

Gu Xuan had already silently activated the Time Domain when he launched his two soul bone skills; with his current strength, even without using his martial soul true form, he is sufficient to control time flow within ten times.

Although the Deep Sea Devil Whale King and he are of equal strength, a time domain of the same level, while powerful, actually has limited influence on such high-level powerhouses.

But Gu Xuan, while using powerful soul bone skills, silently released the domain, using the strong soul power fluctuations of the soul bone skills to conceal the domain's formation, which is why the Deep Sea Devil Whale King had no reaction at all for a moment.

But by the time it wanted to react, it was already too late, because the Time Domain had already taken effect on its body.

Feeling its own speed slow down, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King was shocked and astonished, but this was still not enough to make it show fear.

Since the human form is no match for Gu Xuan, let's go all out.

Moreover, although the two soul bone skills Gu Xuan unleashed are powerful, they are not indefensible.

Only see the Deep Sea Devil Whale King suddenly throw his massive hammer, intending to block the two giant dragons, and then his body instantly enlarged, instantly becoming a hundred-meter-long Deep Sea Devil Whale!

The hammer offset part of the twin dragons' attack power, then, relying on the terrifying devouring power generated by the manifestation of its true body, it directly annihilated the twin dragons.

The Deep Sea Devil Whale King's body is actually not maximized; if maximized, his body could reach a kilometer in size, but the current hundred-meter form is already enough to exert all his strength, and it won't suffer extra damage from being overly huge, so the Deep Sea Devil Whale King chose the hundred-meter size.

All of this seemed to be within Gu Xuan's calculations; just as the Deep Sea Devil Whale King's body appeared, another azure dragon soul surged toward it.

Feeling the terrifying might of the dragon soul, plus recalling the power of the azure lightning dragon he had previously obtained, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King also chose not to meet it head-on.

Only see the Deep Sea Devil Whale King let out a roar, a heavenly water curtain suddenly rose, forming a hundred-meter-tall terrifying defensive barrier; moreover, endless water elements on its surface formed a thick layer of water armor, raising its defensive power to a terrifying level.

But this azure dragon soul seemed beyond his expectation, for this dragon soul actually pierced straight through the water curtain, and under the acceleration of the Time Domain, it directly struck his body.

Just after being struck, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King felt some regret for underestimating Gu Xuan, because its senses dropped by a terrifying tenfold after being hit by the azure dragon soul, and combined with the effect of the Time Domain, it felt a hint of fear for the first time.

And that very move which could dull the Deep Sea Devil Whale King's senses is precisely Gu Xuan's Azure Ox Python Left Arm Soul Bone Skill: Azure Delaying Divine Claw!

This is also a powerful restrictive ability from the Azure Ox Python; as long as the enemy is hit, they will suffer a tenfold penalty to all senses.

Moreover, to counter this soul skill is actually quite simple: just use a dynamic energy attack of at least eighth soul skill level or higher, and it can neutralize this skill.

But the Deep Sea Devil Whale King does not understand Gu Xuan's various abilities, and furthermore Gu Xuan deliberately used the Azure Heaven-Annihilating Thunder attack earlier to lure it, so it fell for the trap.

Because the Azure Heaven-Annihilating Thunder and the Azure Delaying Divine Claw, when released, both take the form of an Azure Ox Python dragon soul, and both carry the terrifying aura of a hundred-thousand-year spirit beast.

Although the Deep Sea Devil Whale King had just released a terrifying defensive skill sufficient to keep him invincible, the Azure Delaying Divine Claw is not a physical attack but an energy attack that can ignore all physical defenses!

"Impossible!" it roared, endless soul power surging across its body, attempting to break free from its restraints.

But the next moment, two dark-red beams of light shot toward its body and huge pupils.

"Evil Devil Tiger Whale King Skull Skill: 'Evil Devil Tiger Whale Demon's Seizure! Tiger Whale Evil Devil Mirror's Annihilation!'"

These are two powerful control-type soul skills granted to Gu Xuan by the Evil Devil Tiger Whale King's skull.

Evil Devil Tiger Whale Demon's Seizure can forcibly dizzy any soul master or spirit beast whose mental power does not exceed Gu Xuan's for three seconds; the lower the opponent's mental power, the longer the dizziness lasts, and if the opponent's mental power is less than half of Gu Xuan's, they will directly suffer a terrifying mental shock and become an idiot.

If the opponent's mental power is even lower, they may even directly explode from the terrifying mental power invasion!

Tiger Whale Evil Devil Mirror's Annihilation, on the other hand, is a physical control skill; whoever is hit by it will have their body turned into a special dark-red crystal, unless they are strong enough to rise above, otherwise they will be forever trapped in the crystal, becoming a work of art.

These two control soul skills are absolutely powerful existences; especially now that Gu Xuan's mental power has reached the ninety-ninth rank of Titled Douluo, in this world aside from gods, even a fellow ninety-ninth rank Titled Douluo hit by these two skills would absolutely fall under control! This is Gu Xuan's current strength.

Under Gu Xuan's exquisite control, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King first felt the effect of the Time Domain, then was struck by the Azure Delaying Divine Claw; finally, Gu Xuan linked these two terrifying control skills, and in merely an instant the Deep Sea Devil Whale King fell into complete passivity.

Although consecutively releasing several hundred-thousand-year soul skills rapidly consumes Gu Xuan's soul power, compared to his now multiplied compressed soul power, this consumption is something he can sustain.

Seeing the Deep Sea Devil Whale King under control, Gu Xuan did not linger for a moment, for he well knew the terror and might of the Deep Sea Devil Whale King!

Only see Gu Xuan's mental power instantly mobilizing the dragon sword that had just been shattered by the Deep Sea Devil Whale King's bodily enlargement; under his direction, the dragon sword suddenly formed a killing formation, namely the second soul bone skill of the Sword Dragon Eight Wings — the Eight Directions Six Harmonies Sword Formation!

At the same time, his eyes suddenly shot out two beams of light, one azure blue and the other dark red.

The two beams shot out and instantly transformed into two hundred-meter-tall beasts: an Azure Blue Ox Python and an Evil Demon Tiger Whale King.

After the two beasts appeared, they immediately attacked the Deep Sea Devil Whale King without any nonsense.

Especially the Evil Demon Tiger Whale King, as the overlord of the sea, there is an even more terrifying existence above it—the Deep Sea Devil Whale King; the former Deep Sea Devil Whale King was an existence it feared and avoided, but now it has risen.

Being able to follow Gu Xuan in subduing such a deep-sea overlord is no different from Gu Xuan now challenging the gods and being able to subdue them; this excitement can only be understood and felt by the Deep Sea Devil Whale King.

Thus, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King at this moment was thrilled and excited, exerting all its strength, determined to firmly seize the true overlord of this sea area—the Deep Sea Devil Whale King itself.

And all of this happened in an instant for Gu Xuan; shortly after, his body's seventh soul ring lit up in red, accompanied by the blood-red glow unique to a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, and Gu Xuan's entire form suddenly transformed into a hundred-meter-tall dark silver bone dragon, letting out a roar toward the Deep Sea Devil Whale King.

The moment the bone dragon appeared, an overwhelming dragon might instantly manifested; even such a terrifying existence as the Deep Sea Devil Whale King felt an oppression and suppression as if coming from a higher rank.

All that happened in an instant left the Deep Sea Devil Whale King even more astonished; as for the Azure Blue Ox Python, well, though I don't know this soul beast, its skill is too disgusting, and I'm still dizzy.

But the Evil Demon Tiger Whale King, I know it well—I used to bully it—how could this guy now become a human's soul ring? And it's still alive? Its strength has grown even stronger?!

How is that possible?! Although the Deep Sea Devil Whale King dislikes the Evil Demon Tiger Whale King, it also knows its temperament; that guy absolutely cannot have any dealings with humans—if anything, it would only be hatred!

But now the Deep Sea Devil Whale King, though its thoughts are myriad, can no longer afford to think much.

Actually, Gu Xuan's Tiger Whale Evil Demon Mirror Destruction did not mirror its body, only mirroring its Mysterious Water Demon Armor on the surface; however, the Evil Demon Tiger Whale Demon Capture soul skill hit it, causing it to be forcibly dazed for three seconds.

Moreover, the state-owned skill Gu Xuan just released added up to just over a second, leaving nearly two seconds remaining, but the Deep Sea Devil Whale King couldn't move at all, because in a dazed state it cannot mobilize soul power to use soul skills.

At this moment, it could only muster all its soul power, concentrating it on its surface to form a thick defense.

The next moment, the Azure Blue Ox Python's body suddenly coiled upward, and it activated its own control skill without attacking.

"Slowing Domain—Open!"

"Azure Blue Divine Dragon Binding Toughness!"

The Evil Demon Tiger Whale King, already restrained, was controlled again; moreover, under the influence of the Slowing Domain's enhancement, it, which was already under the Time Domain and Azure Blue Slow Divine Claw restrictions, found even its soul power mobilization slowed greatly.

"Damn! How does this human have so many soul skills? Just the controlling and restricting soul skills alone are fucking numerous! Where the fuck did this monster come from?!"

Furthermore, when Gu Xuan released his martial soul true form, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King also noticed his soul ring configuration: two yellow, one purple, two black, three red, eight soul rings in total, among which two are ten-thousand-year, and astonishingly three are hundred-thousand-year?

Even Bosai Xi's soul ring configuration is only eight black and one red, yet this human actually possesses three hundred-thousand-year soul rings?!

At this moment, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King had already formed a guess in its heart: perhaps this human is the inheritor of some deity; although not a descendant of the Sea God, its power is already terrifying enough.

From the start of the battle to now, it, the rightful overlord, has been continually suppressed, and now it has completely lost the ability to resist, falling into true passivity!

Now facing three hundred-meter-tall beasts—the Azure Blue Ox Python, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King, and the bone dragon—and a terrifying killing formation, the Deep Sea Devil Whale King rarely felt some fear.

Because it felt that it truly might be defeated by this human, even killed.

Besides this incredibly powerful human before it, there are also two quite capable humans eyeing it covetously!
