Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 586 Cao Jinxuan VS Tianyang Douluo Seeks Revenge for His Master
"Father!!!" Gu Zhujian, the general in the Douling army formation, roared angrily.

It was unbelievable that his powerful father had died in just a few sword strikes from Ji Juechen.

"Hey, where are you looking?" Suddenly, an ice sword slashed towards him; it was from Meng Hongchen.

Although the sword energy on that ice sword was far less powerful than that of Ji Juechen, it contained extremely strong poison.

The Lonely Bamboo Sword merely blocked the attack, but the poison seeped into his body through the Purple Bamboo in his hand, causing his lips to turn purple and his mind to become confused.

Many years ago, he participated in the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Battle Tournament as a high-level Soul King. Now, several years later, his strength has reached the level of Soul Saint, and he has become a general of the Douling Empire. He has a promising future.

Unfortunately, Meng Hongchen was already a high-level Soul Douluo, whose strength was far superior to his.

Meng Hongchen is a very girlish person, and a bit petty. She still remembers clearly how Guzhujian insulted her sweetheart during that competition.

Therefore, she quickly found him on the battlefield, with the intention of sending him down to join his father.

"Snowflakes Fall on Earth!" Meng Hongchen's "Snowflakes Fall on Earth" is completely different from Vina's.

The sword tip gathers wind and snow, and within the wind and snow lies poison. This sword is not a sharp sword, but a sword that uses poison to subdue the person and then freezes their entire body with ice. Rather than a sword technique, it is more like a piercing soul skill. In fact, it can be used on anything sharp, not just swords.

Gu Zhu Jian was first paralyzed by the poison, and then Meng Hongchen pierced his chest with a sword. Although Meng Hongchen's swordsmanship was not particularly exquisite and the sword did not actually hit a vital spot, the poison on the sword had already spread throughout his body.

Gu Zhujian fell to the ground. He was not killed by Meng Hongchen's swordsmanship, but by the poison that corroded his entire body.

The father and son walked one after the other, so at least they would have company on their journey to the underworld.

"Oh!"

High in the sky, Cao Jinxuan and Tianyang Douluo retreated from each other amidst a series of explosions.

Although Tianyang Douluo possessed profound skills, Cao Jinxuan was not at a disadvantage at all, thanks to the dual enhancements from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and the Ruyi Disc.

They even have an advantage, for one word: speed.

He altered the flow of time for himself and Tianyang Douluo, speeding up his own time and slowing down his opponent's, which was equivalent to a fourfold difference.

Moreover, two of these four times, which is the two times that accelerate itself, are equivalent to an independent multiplication zone.

In summary, Cao Jinxuan's speed increased sevenfold, while Tianyang's decreased by half, resulting in an eightfold difference.

An eight-fold speed difference was enough for Cao Jinxuan to fully demonstrate the principle that "speed is the only way to win."

Although his swordsmanship was not as good as Ji Juechen's, he had practiced the Ghost Valley Sword Technique for many years, and on this continent, he could be considered a first-rate master.

"As expected of the Heavenly Sun Douluo, he still can't set up cause and effect." Cao Jinxuan tried to use his ultimate move of reversing cause and effect.

However, his skill level was far inferior to that of Tianyang Douluo, and he could not immediately set the outcome for himself to win.

After all, even if every cause has an effect, there must be a timeline that connects them.

"Severing the Sky!"

Cao Jinxuan's current idea is to inflict as many injuries as possible on Tianyang Douluo. As long as his strength is slightly reduced, he can set up a cause-and-effect relationship and win in one fell swoop.

At this moment, Tianyang Douluo was even more conflicted than Cao Jinxuan. He possessed power far surpassing Cao Jinxuan's, but his energy attacks were all reversed by Cao Jinxuan's time power. In close combat, due to the eight-fold speed difference, he was being toyed with by his opponent, who also found his exquisite swordsmanship impossible to defend against.

The differences in strength, defense, and attack are also minimized due to the presence of two support characters.

If things continue like this, he will inevitably be defeated by Cao Jinxuan.

"Today, I'll show you the Time Sword Technique that my master tailored specifically for me—Fleeting Beauty!"

Cao Jinxuan's sword flashed, like a fleeting moment. In Tianyang Douluo's eyes, it seemed as if time had been stretched out. His body instinctively dodged, but only halfway through the dodge did he realize that the sword had actually pierced his shoulder.

"Damn it, Ninth Soul Skill, Heaven-Shattering Annihilation!"

Tianyang Douluo once again unleashed his ultimate technique, releasing devastating flame energy that dealt a fatal blow to the enemy.

In an instant, the entire sky was illuminated by the powerful fiery soul power of Tianyang Douluo, turning it a brilliant red, like a spectacular sunset.

All the flames in the world seemed to converge towards Tianyang Douluo.

"Time loop!"

Unexpectedly, Cao Jinxuan simply slashed with his sword, and all the flames in the world vanished. This move was to draw a time loop with the tip of his sword, "resetting" the opponent's attack to its state before it was launched.

"What?" Tianyang Douluo was shocked. His ninth soul skill could actually be reset.

"A golden opportunity, a fleeting moment!" Cao Jinxuan immediately channeled all his time power and unleashed his strongest sword strike to date.

He concentrates all his life's skills into a single sword strike, and when the sword is drawn, the opponent feels as if they have experienced a thousand-year illusion, and their mind collapses.

This sword strike inflicted a severe blow on Tianyang Douluo, causing significant damage to both his body and mind.

"I am a level 97 Super Douluo, I will never lose to a mere brat like you! Ninth Soul Skill, Radiant Annihilation!" The enraged Tianyang Douluo unleashed Radiant Annihilation once more. He had been rewound, not interrupted, so although the ultimate move failed to be used, his soul power was not consumed at all.

There's no problem using the ninth soul skill again.

Cao Jinxuan had used the power of time multiple times, which had greatly depleted his energy, making it impossible for him to reset his ninth soul skill again.

However, at this moment, Cao Jinxuan discovered that his River of Time could now be set up with cause and effect, and he immediately used the technique of reversing cause and effect without hesitation.

Immediately afterwards, Tianyang Douluo charged towards Cao Jinxuan amidst a sky full of flames. Without hesitation, Cao Jinxuan unleashed the first move of his level-eight soul tool, the Qingjue Sword, and narrowly missed Tianyang Douluo.

The flames dissipated once more. Tianyang Douluo stared in disbelief at the hole pierced through his chest. The only weak point of his Radiant Annihilation Technique, a mere fraction of a second's gap, had been so precisely exploited by Cao Jinxuan, resulting in a fatal blow.

"Heavenly Sun Douluo, don't mind it, it's just luck, pure luck!" Cao Jinxuan turned around and smiled.

He wasn't lying; it really was just luck. How could he possibly see the weakness in Yaotian's Annihilation Sword? He had simply predetermined his inevitable victory and then casually swung his sword.

In order to achieve this result, the timeline automatically found a suitable cause for his sword strike.

Calling it luck is not unreasonable, after all, even Cao Jinxuan himself didn't know where his final sword would strike.

But that smug expression only enraged Tianyang Douluo. Already severely injured, he was so angry that his blood reversed direction, and he died on the spot from a burst of blood.
