Chapter 441: A True Dragon's Rage, Mountains Turn to Dust
"Heaven-Awakening Holy Golden Dragon? Why is the power of my Heaven-Awakening Holy Golden Dragon in the hands of Yu Yuanzhen?" Jiangmo Douluo said in surprise, then suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him, "Could it be the Heaven Fire Dragon-Subduing Formation from just now?"
He immediately summoned his Coiled Dragon Staff, only to discover that the Heaven-Awakening Holy Golden Dragon attached within the staff was actually just an empty shell; the source of its power could no longer be sensed.
Usually, as long as it was not summoned, the Heaven-Awakening Holy Golden Dragon would always remain asleep inside the staff, which was why Jiangmo had not paid special attention to it before. Just before Nan Tianchen conceded, he had used the power of that Dragon-Subduing Formation to briefly subdue and seal the Heaven-Awakening Holy Golden Dragon, then handed it over to Yu Yuanzhen.
Thus, Yu Yuanzhen obtained the power of two dragons. Even though he was still one level lower than Golden Crocodile Douluo, the combined power of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and the Heaven-Awakening Holy Golden Dragon was enough for him to complete a reversal.
Looking at the sky, where the thunderous power—shared by the two dragons and gathered to a density infinitely close to a Limit Douluo—was concentrated, Golden Crocodile Douluo knew this match was over. Even he might not be able to withstand it, let alone Lion.
"Thunderous Might, fall!!!"
Yu Yuanzhen let out an angry roar. As the True Dragon raged, the massive sound wave that shook the nine heavens instantly drowned out the roar of Lion Douluo's Soul-Shattering Heaven-Slaying Howl.
Following this, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, its electrical power increased by four hundred percent, combined with the Heaven-Awakening Holy Golden Dragon, which had gathered the power of nine thunder dragons, charged downward simultaneously.
"We cannot stay here, everyone, retreat!" Nan Tianchen, Lan Xue, and the other Title Douluos used their soul power to wrap around the youths like Dian Wei and Lingqi, quickly evacuating Guteleisi Mountain.
The Offering Hall side was not arrogant enough to stay on the mountain waiting for the thunder dragons to land; they ran as fast as they possibly could.
On Guteleisi Mountain, in an instant, only Yu Yuanzhen and Lion Douluo remained.
Yu Yuanzhen had no more reservations; the two giant dragons swooped down.
Lion Douluo once again mustered a flame barrier for defense. His stubbornness was likely hereditary; not to mention the original work where he could use a Fifth Soul Ring skill that had just passed ten thousand years to block Xiao Wu's hundred-thousand-year Ninth Soul Skill.
The power of Yu Yuanzhen's combined dragon strike had clearly far exceeded the scope of a hundred-thousand-year soul skill, yet he was still thinking of blocking it.
The final result was self-evident.
The two giant dragons directly shattered his shield, and the powerful impact carried his body, collapsing the entire Guteleisi Mountain.
Boom————
The explosive thunder light illuminated the entire horizon. The group that had just descended the mountain was unable to open their eyes, dazzled by the brilliant light.
Just at this moment, a streak of Holy Light shot into the mountain body.
When the light dissipated, among the crowd, Shui Yue'er opened her dazed eyes and suddenly discovered that her mother and sister were looking ahead with eyes full of shock.
"What is wrong with you, Mother, Sister? There is nothing in front." Shui Yue'er could only see an empty expanse ahead and did not understand what they were looking at, until she finally came to her senses with great difficulty.
Wait, an empty expanse? What about Guteleisi Mountain? "This Guteleisi Mountain is gone!" Meng Shenji said in shock, "His Excellency Thunder's strike actually collapsed the entire mountain range."
Just now, when Nan Feihuang pierced through the mountain belly with one strike of his Halberd and then sliced horizontally with another, cutting a mountain in two, it was already shocking enough. Yu Yuanzhen was even more exaggerated; he first amplified his own thunder power fourfold, then drew upon the power of heaven and earth's thunder, gathering it within the bodies of the two giant dragons. With a single strike, he actually turned the entire mountain into dust.
In fact, this was not the power of Yu Yuanzhen alone. Several top experts had been fighting here just now, and Guteleisi Mountain was already riddled with scars and extremely fragile.
Yu Yuanzhen's powerful impact was merely the final straw that broke the camel's back.
But such a scene still left people feeling shocked.
Especially Shui Bing'er; her Ice Phoenix martial soul was not inferior to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon or the Blazing Lion on the field. She looked forward to whether she, too, would possess such power one day.
"Fourth Brother!!!" Golden Crocodile and the others rushed into the ruins anxiously, searching everywhere for the figure of Lion Douluo.
The strike just now was too intense; none of them had the confidence to withstand it. Lion Douluo must have been defeated without a doubt.
They only hoped that their brother was still alive.
Yu Yuanzhen slowly descended from the sky and knelt on the ground, gasping for breath. The strike just now was the strongest attack he had ever used to date, and it had completely emptied his soul power.
Just like when Nan Feihuang defeated Bone Douluo, now any random Soul Scholar would have deeper soul power than him. "Yu Yuanzhen, you bastard!" Jiangmo Douluo charged at Yu Yuanzhen in a rage.
He thought that the strike just now had left Lion Douluo without even a corpse remaining.
Seeing this, Nan Feihuang and the others immediately stood in front of Yu Yuanzhen. Just at this moment, a calm voice sounded from within the smoke and dust, "Seventh Brother, stop!"
Hearing this voice, Jiangmo Douluo, who had already been impulsive and furious, actually calmed down instantly.
Nan Feihuang looked toward the smoke and dust and waved his hand, a whirlwind blowing the smoke away to reveal the figures beneath the dust.
A golden Holy Light protective shield could be seen, protecting two figures.
One was Lion Douluo, who had already fallen into a coma, and the other was a middle-aged man with a seemingly handsome face.
Feihuang had met him once before; it was none other than one of the three current Limit Douluos, the Angel Douluo Qian Daoliu.
No wonder he had seemed to sense a holy power rush into the battlefield just now; it turned out Qian Daoliu had intervened.
It made sense; apart from him, there was likely no one here who could have saved Lion Douluo under those circumstances.
"Greetings, Great Elder." The four Offerings immediately walked up to Qian Daoliu and bowed.
Qian Daoliu nodded, handed Lion Douluo over to Qianjun Douluo to look after, and then stepped forward, saying, "Was the layout of this battle designed by you, Nan Feihuang?"
"It was not me, but my strategist, Xun Yu, Xun Wenruo." Nan Feihuang did not want to take credit that belonged to his own strategist.
"Xun Yu? So it is you. I have heard of you; the genius strategist who resolved the snow disaster in the Tianshuang Principality and had the fastest promotion in rank in history." Qian Daoliu looked at Xun Yu and said.
Xun Yu smiled and bowed, "To receive your praise, Your Excellency Angel, is truly a great honor for Wenruo."
In fact, it was not just the ordering; the entire plan was designed by him, which even included Nan Tianchen's Ninth Spirit Ring.
At the beginning of designing this battle, Xun Yu had already considered the occurrence of such a situation.
If Dugu Bo were sent to fight the second match, no matter who he encountered, his chances of winning would not be high, and he would be unable to gain an advantage for the next person to go up. Unless he encountered Lion Douluo, then it wouldn't matter if he lost, because that would mean Yu Yuanzhen would face one of Qianjun or Jiangmo; under the same level, not many Spirit Masters were Yu Yuanzhen's match.
But Xun Yu never liked to rely on luck; he liked to have everything in his grasp. Therefore, he had to ensure that no matter who the Gulei Kingdom sent in the second match encountered from the Offering Hall, he would at least secure victory in the third match.
Therefore, before Nan Feihuang returned to the country, he had suggested in advance that Nan Tianchen's Ninth Soul Skill be able to open a Dragon-Subduing formation.
Although dragons were the strongest type of Spirit Beast on the Douluo Continent, Xun Yu had studied theory for many years and knew well the principle that all things in heaven and earth have their mutual generation and restraint.
Just as where poisonous snakes often appear, there must be a restraining object within seven steps.
Relying on the Spirit Beast knowledge he had learned, Xun Yu found the location of a dragon den within the Star Dou Great Forest, and after searching the surroundings with Nan Tianchen, they finally found a peculiar Spirit Beast.
It was a Spirit Beast that looked like a dog, yet it loved to eat dragon marrow, which reminded Xun Yu of a type of Ferocious Beast recorded in books he had read in his past life.
Its name was Hou. There is a folk saying that "one Hou can fight three dragons and two flood dragons"; the combat power of one Hou is such that three dragons plus two flood dragons cannot do anything to it. The Hou is one or two zhang long, its body covered in scales, its whole body wreathed in firelight, and it is extremely ferocious. When fighting a dragon, it spits fire from its mouth, and the dragon is immediately defeated.
This Spirit Beast should be similar to the Ya Zi martial soul of Ge Long of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Golden Xuanwu of the later Xu Sanshi; they all possessed a trace of their ancestor's bloodline power.
And it was inherited from the Hou!
The nemesis of dragons, and it happened to be fire-attributed; it was simply a Ninth Spirit Ring gifted by heaven to Nan Tianchen. From the moment he saw that Spirit Beast, Xun Yu had already foreseen today's situation: Yu Yuanzhen would definitely win this match.
