Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao, the Thief of Heaven

Chapter 157 Skeleton Knight

"Xiao, Xiaoya?"

Beibei stopped struggling and looked at Tang Ya with disbelief. Tang Ya was completely unfamiliar to him. Her eyes were icy cold, as if she were looking at a complete stranger.

Tang Ya came up behind Zhang Lexuan and used the last of her Blue Silver Grass abilities to transform into a spear. Bei Bei's eyes changed from confusion and fear to shock and anger.

"Ah! Ahhh!"

Beibei roared angrily and frantically slapped the abyssal creature biting its arm with its dragon claws.

Zhang Lexuan's painful screams were no longer audible to him; his eyes were only on Tang Ya, the Tang Ya who had pierced Zhang Lexuan.

He couldn't understand why that beautiful and lively girl, with her pure and kind heart, had become so filthy and disgusting.

"Tang Ya!"

Beibei's eyes were bloodshot, and her expression was furious and ferocious.

How long has it been since he called Tang Ya by her full name? The more he loved Tang Ya in the past, the more he hates her now.

It was no longer possible for him to break free on his own. In a fit of extreme rage, Beibei aimed its dragon claws at himself.

The arm that was bitten —

scoff!

"Tang Ya!"

With lightning surging from his one-armed body, Beibei raised his dragon claw and charged towards Tang Ya at the fastest speed he had ever seen.

Tang Ya remained indifferent and gently raised her hand to wave.

Snapped!

The thick tentacles casually slapped Beibei away, and Beibei crashed straight into the wall made of skeletons, cracking open with spider web-like patterns.

Everything will end here.

Before losing consciousness, this is what Beibei thought.

Outside, facing this three-meter-tall round black sphere, the old man scratched his head, completely clueless as to how to enter this strange world.

If Beibei were outside, she would definitely recognize this person as the tavern owner they passed by, or rather, Long Xiaoyao.

In that battle, he was beaten to the brink of death by Moon.

After he awoke, Ye Xishui had already been killed by a Title Douluo from the Douluo Federation, and her Martial Soul had been taken by Huo Yuhao.

Even if this tall old man had suffered a fatal injury, he wouldn't have shrunk to this size. Perhaps Ye Xishui's death made him let go of some obsession.

Long Xiaoyao suddenly turned his head to look behind him.

Deathly aura permeated the darkness, and the sound of bones stepping on sand and gravel reached their ears.

A skeleton knight riding a skeletal horse slowly emerged from the darkness, his eyes, flickering with ghostly blue undead flames, not looking at Long Xiaoyao.

Long Xiaoyao made no move against this undead creature, which he had never seen before in his life, and simply watched it pass by.

Arriving before the black sphere connected to the eerie realm, the Skeleton Knight drew the Water-Summoning Sword from his waist and slashed at the black sphere.

Just as Tang Ya was about to end the lives of Bei Bei and Zhang Lexuan, and end her own past.

The sun, swallowed by the total solar eclipse, was suddenly shattered in the sky, and light poured down from the heavens, revealing a skeleton rider.

The warrior charged down on his warhorse.

Faced with this sudden intruder, Tang Ya commanded the abyssal creatures within the space to attack him.

The skeleton knight swung his sword at the abyssal creatures that rushed towards him, but instead of cleaving them in two, the creatures were absorbed directly into his sword.

"He's absorbing the power of the abyss from the bodies of abyssal creatures!" Ba Huang exclaimed.

The power of the Abyss is an evolution of some kind of divine power. In essence, this skeleton knight is absorbing the barely perceptible divine power from the creatures of the abyss.

This instilled a great deal of fear in these abyssal creatures, perhaps even nine-tenths of their fear.

Because the power of the Abyss Sea is the force that allows them to remain on the Douluo Continent. Without the protection of the power of the Abyss Sea, they will eventually be assimilated by the rules of the Douluo Continent.

Ultimately, they will become Soul Beasts of Douluo Continent, like the Evil Eye Tyrant Clan and the Demon Spirit Clan.

Their goal is to plunder the dimensional energy of Douluo Continent, strengthen their home planet Abyss Dimension, and become native inhabitants of Douluo Continent—nothing like that!

"Stop him!"

The succubus-like woman, the Enchantress, let out a chilling roar.

They attacked the swooping skeleton knight with all their might, but the skeleton knight showed no fear whatsoever.

That's how undead creatures are.

There is no mind capable of thinking, no will capable of yielding, and no voice crying out for suffering.

Yes, it was just an obsession set up for him by Electrolux and Benjamin.

Keep hunting, keep hunting down these objects that possess high-quality, rare energy.

As for what he will do with the power he absorbs from the Water Summoning Sword, that's not his concern.

With a swing of his Water Summoning Sword, the Skeleton Knight deflected the incoming attack, absorbing and trapping the energy within the sword.

Although this skeleton knight was a powerful figure in the Holy Demon Continent in his previous life, his combat strength was only at the Soul Saint level.

However, the Water Summoning Sword has a special attack attribute against evil creatures. If these creatures had even a little bit of human energy, they wouldn't be so easily countered.

Tang Ya manipulated the siren's tentacles to try again.

It seemed to sense the purity of Tang Ya's abilities, which was different from the power of the abyssal creatures like Ba Huang and Mei Huang, who only received a share of the power.

Tang Ya is the true inheritor of the power of the Abyss Sea, and her martial soul possesses the purest power of the Abyss Sea.

The Skeleton Knight met Tang Ya's siren tentacles with his sword, piercing them and beginning to frantically absorb the power of the abyss within Tang Ya's tentacles.

Tang Ya's face turned terrified as she felt her soul power level rapidly declining.

Originally, Tang Ya's cultivation level, which had reached level ninety-nine due to the inheritance of the Abyss Sea God, rapidly declined.

Ninety-eight, ninety-seven, ninety-six —

Terrified, Tang Ya made a quick decision and severed all the tentacles on her body.

After colliding for a short while, his level dropped to level ninety-four.

"Gurgle—my, my power—" Tang Ya clutched her head, her face contorted with fear, completely unable to look at the skeleton knight who was like a stern father to her.

Just as the skeleton knight was about to bring down his sword, the four abyssal creatures made their move.

Ba Huang grabbed Tang Ya and quickly created distance. He stared intently at the skeleton knight, eager to fight him.

In addition to the energy possessing the characteristics of the Abyss Sea, Emperor Ba also possesses the powerful physical body of the Baen clan.

He wanted to test it out; he wanted to see if the skeleton knight could still move after he had smashed it to pieces and reduced it to bone fragments.

"Bahuang, it's time to retreat. I sense two experts at the mental power level watching this place. It would be very disadvantageous to clash with them," the leading man said.

"Tsk, now we know, King of Abominations." Ba Huang clicked his tongue and reluctantly joined them.

Just as the skeleton knight was about to make another move, the five people and the space around them began to change, and they vanished without a trace in an instant.

The scene transformed into the small river where Beibei and her group had camped, the stream flowing quietly as if nothing had just happened.
