Chapter 326: Dai Mubai Dies

"Who!" Dai Mubai's expression changed abruptly.

"Shi Quan!" Tang San's figure came to a sudden halt, his pitch-black pupils instantly turning blood-red as he stared fixedly at the tall and familiar figure in the distance.

"I don't know what business this lord has in stopping my brother and me?" Dai Mubai, seeing this, hurriedly pressed down on Tang San's shoulder and asked in a low voice.

"There's no need to pretend in front of me." Shi Quan chuckled aloud.

It had to be said that Tang San and Dai Mubai were very clever; they must have used some special means within their pupils to self-seal the soul power within their bodies. If he hadn't been constantly observing the unusual movements within the military camp, it was uncertain whether they would have succeeded in stealing these corpses.

"Tang San, what difference is there between you now and a rat in the sewer?" Shi Quan's face was full of mocking laughter. "To be able to do something like stealing corpses, have I fallen to this extent?"

"Shi Quan!" Seeing that Shi Quan had recognized his identity, Tang San no longer pretended and roared, "The state I am in today is all because you forced me!"

Shi Quan chuckled aloud, "Indeed, you've become much more steady. If it were before, you would have already charged at me regardless of the consequences."

Hearing this, the blood-red light in Tang San's pupils overflowed to the extreme. Only by staying alive was there hope for revenge; he had firmly kept this sentence in mind throughout his years of experience.

Now, they were only a few thousand meters away from the Heaven Dou army, and since Shi Quan had suddenly appeared here, he had to be wary of whether other powerhouses were still hidden in the surroundings.

"Mu Bai, the usual spot!" Tang San shouted, and Dai Mubai immediately understood.

An evil aura mixed with the scent of blood erupted from the two of them.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black—eight soul rings floated in unison around both of them!

Without the slightest hesitation in their movements, the two fled directly to the left and right.

Both were clear about their situation; Shi Quan's strength was formidable, making it impossible to end the battle in a short time, and there was a high probability that powerhouses were hidden in the shadows. Naturally, they could not waste time here; fleeing was their best option now.

Being together made them too large a target, and splitting up to flee while also judging whether powerhouses were hidden in the shadows was undoubtedly the best choice at the moment.

"This is too different from the Tang San in my memory." Shi Quan shook his head with a light laugh. With a thought, the space behind him seemed to distort, then quickly returned to normal, and he turned to pursue in the direction of Dai Mubai.

"Is he alone?" While fleeing, Tang San also constantly monitored the changes behind him. Apart from Shi Quan at the beginning, he had not discovered anyone else.

"With Boss Dai's strength, self-preservation should be no problem." A flash of brilliance passed through Tang San's pupils, and his pace did not falter in the slightest as he continued to flee rapidly forward.

"To let a proper White Tiger turn into this state, I wonder how much slaughter it has caused." From the other side, Shi Quan's cold voice came.

"Are the souls under your hands any fewer, Shi Quan?" Dai Mubai's cold voice came back, though his speed underfoot did not slow down at all.

"I don't mind adding one more like you." Shi Quan chuckled aloud. His right hand manifested the Blue Silver Emperor Tree martial soul, and the Blue Silver Domain instantly expanded, enveloping Dai Mubai within it.

Their current location was a forest, and a forest was undoubtedly the world of Blue Silver Grass. Countless Blue Silver Vines rose from the ground, directly blocking Dai Mubai's retreat and rapidly winding toward him.

"A Domain!?" Dai Mubai's expression turned somewhat ugly, and the Seventh Soul Ring beneath him suddenly lit up.

Dark Demon Tiger True Body!

An evil, foul-smelling aura erupted and scattered, directly shaking off the vines that were winding around him.

"Want to trap me! It's not that easy!" Dai Mubai let out a heaven-shaking roar!

"Trap you?" Shi Quan chuckled, the mockery in his eyes plain to see. "With this chaotic soul power of yours, it will take but a single sword..."

The blood-red Fourth Spirit Ring on Shi Quan's body quietly lit up. With his left hand behind his back, he transformed his right hand into a sword finger and pointed it at Dai Mubai.

The next second, a brilliant blue-gold light erupted throughout the entire forest. The light gathered rapidly to form the Blue Silver Devouring Emperor Sword, which condensed in front of Shi Quan, blooming with surging light and carrying an extreme aura of life as it flew out violently.

"Roar!"

A giant phantom of a Dark Demon Tiger appeared behind Dai Mubai. Ink-black and blood-red colors merged, all of which fused into the body of the Dark Demon Tiger, wrapping around him and turning into an ink-colored beam of energy that charged toward the Blue Silver Devouring Emperor Sword.

The ink-colored energy beam came fast and went fast. Almost the instant it touched the Blue Silver Devouring Emperor Sword, Dai Mubai, who was inside the ink-colored energy, was sent flying backward like a cannonball, with the vegetation along the way snapping one after another.

"Why... why... I have devoured so much energy, yet I cannot even block a single strike from you." Bright red blood gushed from the corners of Dai Mubai's mouth. The blue-gold Blue Silver Devouring Emperor Sword had pierced directly through his chest, pinning him firmly to the ground, his blood-stained face full of madness.

Shi Quan's figure landed slowly in front of Dai Mubai. "Strength gained by relying on devouring the life energy of others is ultimately hollow. With such chaotic soul power, how much of your true strength can you actually exert? Why do you think that soul power obtained through devouring would be stronger than soul power obtained through cultivation?"

Moreover, Dai Mubai was only at level 81. In this battlefield of the forest, even if a Title Douluo were to come, they would have to avoid the edge of this sword strike from Shi Quan.

As his life-bound soul ring, the Fourth Spirit Ring initially possessed only one soul skill, the Blue Silver Devouring Emperor Sword. Even after it later evolved into a Ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring, the Fourth Spirit Ring still retained only that one soul skill.

A Ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring bringing only one soul skill meant that the power of this single soul skill exceeded that of an ordinary ten-thousand-year soul skill, equivalent to two soul skills fused into one.

"So that's how it is!" Blood continued to gush from the corners of Dai Mubai's mouth. He could feel his life slowly dissipating, but how could he die so easily? "So what! If I hadn't devoured, I would have already died. It was Little San who gave me a new life! I am not wrong! It is this world that is wrong!"

"Die! Just die!" Dai Mubai's frantic voice came. *Puff—*, Dai Mubai pulled out the Blue Silver Devouring Emperor Sword from his chest, then violently spat out a large mouthful of heart blood and grabbed Shi Quan's ankle. "Everyone, just die!"

Dai Mubai vented his final madness, and the chaotic energy within his body erupted instantly.

Self-detonation!

At this final moment, even before dying, Dai Mubai wanted to drag someone down with him.

"If you want to die, then die; stop barking like a dog."

The scene of soul power triggering an explosion that he had imagined did not occur; instead, Dai Mubai was kicked away by Shi Quan, slamming heavily into the ground and spitting out another mouthful of blood.
