Chapter 488: with translation of chapter title

Rewinding time slightly, to the moment when Xuanzi's identity had just been exposed by Tang Wulin.

Ye Xi Shui rides onto Xuanzi, who has transformed into a huge dark Taotie, releases her martial soul Blood Soul Demon Puppet, which resonates with his power, causing both of their auras to rapidly rise.

At the level of Limit Douluo, as long as their compatibility isn't terribly poor, fighting together will definitely produce an effect greater than the sum of their parts; even if only one acts the whole time while the other merely watches, it's the same.

After Xuanzi's martial soul mutated, the devouring instinct in his Taotie bloodline was infinitely amplified; at this point, his power is highly compatible with Ye Xi Shui's, such that the boost he gets from fighting alongside her is even greater than when fighting alongside Long Xiaoyao.

Unlike Ye Xi Shui, Kong Deming did not mount Xuanzi's body; instead, he looked disgusted and distanced himself from him.

The evil aura on Xuanzi's body at this moment is too heavy; it's beyond what ordinary humans can tolerate; only someone like Ye Xi Shui, who has also killed countless people, can completely ignore it.

Even someone of Kong Deming's caliber would be greatly affected by prolonged exposure to such a quantity of evil aura.

Du Bu Si - Undying Poison

Tang Wulin had previously seen Xuanzi use that move with his Taotie Divine Bull martial soul, namely in Xuanzi's battle against the Undying Poison; at that time the move's attribute was earth, and what was summoned were pure meteors.

But now it's very different; the meteor shower Xuanzi summons is filled with dark, frenzied curse power, causing intense physical discomfort.

Eight‑cornered Mystic Ice Grass - Eight‑cornered Mystic Ice Grass

We must not allow even a single fragment of this meteor shower to fall to the ground, otherwise the battlefield below will surely suffer carnage.

Although warfare inherently involves death, the destructive power of Honored Douluo-level beings is excessively extreme, hence the rule that Honored Douluo battles must take place in the sky and must not target ordinary people.

Moreover, Xuanzi is an incomparably powerful Limit Douluo, and perhaps due to the Dark Dragon King soul bone, judging by his aura alone, he now feels stronger to Tang Wulin than Ye Xi Shui at her peak; this strike of his already equals the combined power of over ten Honored Douluo soul skills.

Blood Soul Devil Puppet - Martial Soul Blood Soul Demon Puppet

Snow Empress pointed a single hand to the sky, and the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain was released; under her control it precisely condensed into ice-snow vortices, intercepting each spot where the dark meteors fell.

The Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass appeared on Huo Yutong's left shoulder; as it swayed in the wind, rings of ice-blue light appeared on her shoulder, condensing the ice element from the air for her.

The Dark Soul Plum Blossom then appeared on her right shoulder; dark-red plum blossoms bloomed in the wind, releasing streams of fragrance that lifted the spirit, and a huge rose-gold vortex began to form around it. The mermaid princess Li Ya floated beside her, her fish tail coiled, singing loudly.

Tang Wulin refused to be outdone; two giant red and blue dragons flew out from his arms, roaring as they exhaled breath after breath, dispelling the enemy's attacks.

Simultaneously, a huge blue-gold plant appeared behind him, constantly emitting vivid, almost dripping blue-gold light, forming a huge domain that encompassed Xuanzi, Ye Xi Shui, and Kong Deming, and began rapidly draining their soul power.

Apart from the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, which had sacrificed all its origin and whose body still possessed little combat power, all the other soul spirits acted together now, successfully helping Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong greatly reduce the pressure from the enemy.

Especially the Snow Empress and the Water Fire Dragon King, these three.

The Snow Empress originally only had rank ninety‑eight strength, but after Huo Yutong absorbed the Ice God Shuangling Bian, her strength leapt again. As the strongest among Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong's soul spirits, even if she faced Ye Xi Shui alone now, she would not necessarily be much inferior.

The Water Fire Dragon King, as soon as it appeared, caused the Xuanzi beneath Ye Xi Shui to begin violently trembling.

Ye Xi Shui's face suddenly changed; she actually felt she could barely control the Xuanzi beneath her.

Such a situation is not unheard of in the Holy Spirit Sect's records; it usually occurs when that mysterious soul bone loses control.

But after hundreds of years of training, this dragon bone should by rights have been thoroughly corrupted already; why did it suddenly break free of control? What did this kid Tang Wulin do? Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong naturally wouldn't answer her question; taking advantage of the opening while the major soul spirits dealt with the incoming attacks, they seized the chance to use their soul skills, hoping to first eliminate an Ultimate Douluo.

That is Ye Xi Shui, who controls the Xuanzi.

Ye Xi Shui not only controls the Xuanzi's movements, but also, having been severely wounded in the previous battle, her strength is the weakest on the current battlefield; as long as she is dealt with, the overall situation will be decided.

The ice‑blue Emperor Sword appeared out of nowhere; Huo Yutong gripped her longsword and slashed at Ye Xi Shui, while Tang Wulin, behind her, raised his spear, the sixth soul ring lighting up; with the aid of Huo Yutong's Mental Detection Sharing, he locked onto Ye Xi Shui, and his body began to surge with intense destructive aura.

Seeing this, Kong Deming quickly raised his hand, wanting to help Ye Xi Shui block the attack, but the many soul spirits swarmed up, surrounding him completely, as various attacks poured in densely, instantly suppressing him and making it hard for him to break free.

Ye Xi Shui felt herself locked on by Tang Wulin, and a deadly sense of crisis erupted violently in her heart.

After becoming an Ultimate Douluo, her intuition became much sharper than before; now her intuition was frantically shouting at her that the soul skill Tang Wulin was about to release had the power to instantly kill her.

The Golden Dragon Suppress Prison Kill is a powerful attack that can directly affect both body and spirit; even if Ye Xi Shui, after death, were forcibly revived by the power of the Blood Soul Grand Formation, she would still find it hard to continue fighting due to the exhaustion of her soul power and severe spiritual damage.

By then, the danger she would face would be enough to annihilate both her body and spirit.

A strong sense of fear erupted in her heart; she let out a sharp cry and without hesitation unleashed her eighth soul skill.
