Douluo, my clone Groudon

Chapter 351 Zhang Geyang, Dead!
However, the sword of the precipice locks not only space, but also the "coordinates" of his existence!
No matter how he twisted and turned, the massive reddish-brown sword that cleaved the earth seemed to defy the laws of physics, its tip always pointing precisely at him at an unbelievable speed.

In just a breath, the monstrous sword tip, churning with lava and exuding an aura of world destruction, was already within reach.

The scorching heatwave instantly incinerated all the defensive soul skills he had hastily set up, and the shadow of death completely loomed over him!

"Do not--!"

Zhang Geyang let out a desperate and unwilling roar. He didn't understand, he never understood until his death! Who exactly possessed such power? And why was he specifically targeting him? When did he provoke such a formidable enemy?
But he still struggled, burning his martial spirit essence, his speed continued to surge, and he sped forward.

The speed of the Cliff Sword is indeed a weakness. If it weren't for Gura's enhancement of the lock-on effect with the power of time and space, it would be useless if it couldn't hit anyone.

At this critical moment.

Tsk-!
A blinding, violent, purplish-black bolt of lightning burst forth from Zhang Geyang's body without warning.

It wasn't something he actively activated, but rather his soul—the Thunderous Hell Vine!

This powerful plant-type spirit, containing a trace of the Thunder God's bloodline, was completely beyond Zhang Geyang's control at this moment.

Its enormous vine-like phantom struggled violently, and the purplish-black lightning, carrying a strong will of resistance and betrayal, frantically assaulted the equal contract between it and Zhang Geyang.

"you dare?!!"

Zhang Geyang's eyes widened in horror, and his mind was in turmoil.

But Lei Mingyan Yuteng sensed a pure and attractive natural aura, like the sweetest bait, which flashed by at a very close distance.

It was this aura that instantly ignited the long-suppressed, overwhelming resentment of Lei Mingyan Yuteng towards Zhang Geyang for breaking his promise and failing to provide a sufficient thunderous environment to help him grow to the age of 100,000.

The backlash from the contract was minimized by the soothing power of nature, and the Thunderous Hell Vine will choose a new master today!
"Traitor!" Zhang Geyang tried to suppress his anger, but the death pressure from the precipice sword made it impossible for him to concentrate.

Boom! ! !

The phantom of the Thunderous Hell Vine suddenly broke free from the binding of the contract, and with a resolute purple-black lightning bolt, it shot like an arrow towards an inconspicuous shadowy corner of the desolate mountain below.

There, Bo Xi's figure flashed by, and he had just put away a soul tool that emitted a soft green light in his hand, and his natural aura disappeared.

"Do not--!"

Zhang Geyang's last reliance collapsed completely, and his soul power dropped to level 97. This was the last straw that broke the camel's back, and despair completely engulfed him.

He watched helplessly as the precipice-shaped sword, representing the wrath of the earth god, carrying molten lava that could incinerate everything and the gravity that could crush all things, ignored his futile defenses and pierced through his body.

There was no earth-shattering explosion. There was only a dull thud, like a heavy object falling into mud.

The azure light of the battle armor flickered and died out instantly, like a candle in the wind. The powerful phantom of the ghostly flame beast let out a mournful cry before collapsing with a deafening roar.

The moment Zhang Geyang's body came into contact with the crimson tip of the Cliff Sword, it was completely decomposed and vaporized by the terrifying earth god's power and the high temperature of the lava contained within. Not even a trace of ash or a drop of blood remained.

Zhang Geyang, a level 98 Super Douluo and the highest person in charge of the Star Luo Spirit Pagoda, vanished without a trace, his body and soul annihilated!

Rumble... The cliff sword, having lost its target, slowly sank into the earth, leaving behind an enormous, bottomless crater of lava. The crater walls were smooth as a mirror, still bearing traces of terrifying heat and destructive energy fluctuations, proclaiming that an annihilation beyond mortal comprehension had just occurred here.

In the shadows of the desolate mountain, Bo Xi's figure emerged. His face was somewhat pale, clearly indicating that witnessing and directly confronting Zhang Geyang's dying counterattack had greatly impacted him.

He opened his palm, and a thin vine, crackling with purplish-black lightning, was gently coiled around it, radiating the thrill of surviving a catastrophe and a bewildered curiosity.

It was the Thunderous Hell Vine's spirit body, shrunk countless times. At this moment, it was greedily absorbing the aura of the Child of Nature emanating from Bo Xi, belonging to Gula, and appeared unusually docile.

Bo Xi quickly retrieved a specially made soul orb and carefully stored away the invaluable soul. Mission accomplished.

From a higher-dimensional perspective, Gula's "gaze" shifted from the spot of light representing Zhang Geyang, which had been completely annihilated, and swept across the massive lava crater below, along with the several soul bones within, finally settling on Bo Xi and the soul orb in his hand. Target confirmed cleared, loot retrieved.

Consciousness falls from higher dimensions like the receding tide.

At the summit of the barren mountain, Gula slowly opened his eyes. The strange phenomena of time and space and the divine radiance that had been swirling in his eyes quickly faded, and his gaze returned to its usual depth.

The night wind blew by, carrying the scent of distant cities, as well as a trace of the lingering, sulfurous heat from deep within the earth.

He seemed to have done something insignificant, dusting off non-existent dust from his sleeves, his figure silently blending into the night and disappearing from sight.

Star Luo City, on the top floor of the Spirit Pagoda headquarters, in front of a broken floor-to-ceiling window.

Several powerful figures, alerted by the disturbance, arrived late, only to find the office in complete disarray. They sensed the lingering, violent fluctuations of soul power in the air, and... a persistent, chilling aura of destruction.

A few days later, they finally confirmed that Zhang Geyang had disappeared. His very presence had vanished without a trace, as if he had never existed.

There were no enemies, and no signs of battle.

Only in the western suburbs could one hear the towering flames and the faint rumbling from the depths of the earth.

It happened outside everyone's perception, clean, efficient, and unbelievable, like a divine punishment.

The news of the mysterious death of Zhang Geyang, the highest-ranking official of the Star Luo Spirit Pagoda, swept through the mainland's top echelons like a hurricane, eventually landing heavily on the desk of the tower master's office at the Star Luo Empire headquarters with a vague emergency report from the official Star Luo Empire.

"Dead? Zhang Geyang... is dead?"

Qian Gu Dongfeng gripped the thin yet incredibly heavy report, his knuckles turning white from the force. His first reaction was one of absurdity.

A level 98 Super Douluo, possessing the Netherflame Beast Martial Soul, a three-word Battle Armor Master, and stationed at the Star Luo Spirit Pagoda headquarters... Who can kill him? Who dares to kill him?
He died silently outside Xingluo City, and his remains were never found; only a huge pit remained at the scene.
Doubts, like cold vines, entwined my heart, only to be burned away by a raging inferno!

"Bastard!"

A suppressed roar burst forth from Qian Gu Dong Feng's throat. His raging soul power erupted like a runaway torrent.

The mountain of precious documents on the desk instantly turned into flying debris, the sturdy soul-guided alloy wall was squeezed by the invisible shockwave, and expensive soul-guided ornaments exploded, scattering fragments everywhere.

The entire office was instantly a mess, as if it had been ravaged by a giant beast.
