I am a mortal who has achieved enlightenment through burning my secrets

Chapter 289 Zhan Yue Pass

Having cracked Chrysanthemum Douluo's ninth soul skill, Xiao Wuji no longer intended to hold back. With so many people making such bold statements, he was determined to keep his word!

A spatial barrier enveloped the battlefield, directly eliminating any possibility of Chrysanthemum Douluo escaping and also obscuring everyone's view.

Then the sixth spirit ring flashed, and the God-Devouring Spear condensed again in his hand. Then the first, second, and third spirit rings exploded instantly, turning into violent spirit power that flowed wildly within his body!

"Explode! Explode the ring!"

The familiar scene filled Yue Guanxin with fear. Even though he knew that the person in front of him was not Tang Hao, nor a Title Douluo, he just couldn't control his heart!

More than a decade ago, he was seriously injured by Tang Hao's move, and Qian Xunji died in that battle. He also ended up being blamed for failing to protect the enemy.

If he had pledged allegiance to the current Pope in time, he would probably have been crippled by the angry Grand High Priest, or even permanently banned from service. He wouldn't be as carefree as he is now!

Detonating a soul ring is like boosting one's soul power; each time a soul ring is detonated, an additional layer of boost is added.

"Give it to me, broken!"

Xiao Wuji thrust out his spear, and the extremely violent soul power instantly found an outlet, with a beam of soul power shooting out from the tip of the spear.

"A wondrous mushroom that reaches the heavens, indestructible as a diamond!"

Yue Guan used his Martial Soul True Body to protect himself. It was because of this Martial Soul True Body that he did not need any defensive Soul Skills, because his Martial Soul itself was the best defense!

The beam of soul power tore apart half of the petals, but ultimately it lacked the strength to finish the job!
Before Yue Guan could even catch her breath, a golden spear pierced straight into the petals, and a terrifying suction force emanated from the spear.

Soul power, blood energy, and vitality all surged uncontrollably and wildly into the spear.

Xiao Wuji's soul core spun wildly, shredding and refining everything that came from the spear!
Yue Guan wanted to lock in his soul power and blood, but unfortunately he was not good at this. Even though he used his soul power to assist all the pores on his body, it only made his soul power consume faster and slightly slowed down the loss of blood and vitality!
"Eighth Soul Skill, Stream of Light!"

After a brief moment of thought, Yue Guan came up with the best way to break the deadlock: get away from that strange spear!
The petals formed a ring in front of him, stealing the sunlight from the world, and then transformed into the most intense beam of light, blasting Xiao Wuji straight away.

Within the blazing beam of light, Xiao Wuji's clothes and hair instantly turned to ash, and his skin was charred.

Amidst the blazing light, the martial spirit wove in his left hand, instantly condensing into a vine shield to protect him.

His martial spirit, having undergone the transformation by the medicinal power of immortal herbs, had long since become impervious to water and fire; this blazing beam of light could not harm him in the slightest.

With the beam of light blocked, Xiao Wuji began to mobilize his life force to heal his injuries. In just a moment, he was fully recovered, and even grew a head of short hair, using his martial spirit to weave an outer garment for himself.

Two more spirit rings exploded. Xiao Wuji held his shield in front of him and went against the flow of the blazing light pillar, quickly approaching Yue Guan and then thrusting out with his spear.

The soul power provided by two ten-thousand-year soul rings is far greater than that of a hundred-year or thousand-year soul rings, so the power of this shot is naturally much greater!
Therefore, the spear easily pierced through Yue Guan's defenses and broke through his chest!

Avoiding the fate of being pierced through the chest, Yue Guan looked down at his own chest. Not a trace of blood flowed from the dried flesh! It was only a momentary contact, yet the wound felt as if it had endured hundreds of years of wind and sun!
"The Fallen!!" Yue Guan uttered the three words with difficulty. This was the term used in this era to refer to evil soul masters. Before becoming a titled Douluo, he often escorted the Fallen to the City of Slaughter, so he was no stranger to this type of person!

"Yue Guan, I'll take your life!"

"Mount Buzhou is broken!!!"

"Mount Buzhou Shattered" is the only move in his spear technique, a technique that is also a life-or-death struggle! He pours out all his soul power and spiritual power in an instant, disregarding damage, to unleash his strongest attack! After this strike, it's either you or me who dies!
The spear is a weapon of war, and spear techniques are naturally different from sword techniques. His spear techniques are not as complicated as sword techniques, but only have the courage and determination to fight to the death!

Such an attack method will inevitably sever the meridians in the body, and if the physical body is not strong enough, it is not impossible for it to be torn apart from the inside by the soul power on the spot.

However, Xiao Wuji's physical strength was definitely sufficient, and he didn't care about the damage to his meridians.

The spear, thrown like a falling meteor, carried the force of a collapsing sky. It easily pierced Yue Guan's body, then slammed into the spatial barrier with undiminished momentum, breaking free of it—

outside world!

Sword Douluo stood in front of Ghost Douluo with his sword. Although he didn't know what gave Xiao Wuji the courage to face Yue Guan alone, he would absolutely not allow anyone to break the barrier before it was broken!

Similarly, Ghost Douluo's appearance here was merely to restrain Sword Douluo; he did not believe that Yue Guan could not even handle a Soul Emperor!

Before truly making up his mind, Ning Fengzhi would not let Sword Douluo take action, because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School currently lacked the ability and courage to face the Spirit Hall alone!
Click!

A cracking sound rang out, and then a golden light suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes, before crashing down on the mountainside on one side of the valley with unstoppable force!

Rumble!
Countless rocks collapsed, and the mountain trembled three times. A huge gap appeared in the mountain, and light could be faintly seen coming from the other side through the gap.

The barrier shattered, revealing the situation inside to everyone!

A figure clad in a golden battle robe stood on the ground, at the feet of another effeminate man dressed in white with gold ornaments! Or rather, the corpse of the effeminate man would be more accurate!
The soul core within his body circulated rapidly, doing its utmost to absorb the surrounding soul power and fill his parched dantian!
"Moon Pass!!"

Upon seeing Yue Guan's corpse, Gui Mei flashed forward, but was stopped by Jian Douluo with a single sword strike. At this moment, how could he not see that Xiao Wuji was already exhausted? Naturally, he would not let such a dangerous person as Gui Mei pass by.

However, as the top agility-type Soul Master in the Spirit Hall, it's hard to say how strong Ghost is in combat, but at least few can match his movement skills! With just a flash, he disappeared from the spot and reappeared in front of Xiao Wuji!

Xiao Wuji was also startled by the ghostly movements of the ghost. He subconsciously kicked the corpse under his feet away and flew backward at the same time. In terms of speed, he was not much slower than the ghost.

Faced with the choice between the mission and Yue Guan, Gui Mei chose Yue Guan without hesitation. She caught Yue Guan's corpse in a flash, glared hatefully at Xiao Wuji, as if trying to imprint his image in her heart. Then, she turned and fled without looking back.

Seeing that the last threat had receded, Xiao Wuji finally gave up and collapsed to the ground. Most of his meridians were shattered, and he hadn't even begun treatment yet. How could he possibly face a master of the level of a ghost?
