Battle Through the Heavens II: Three Phases of Peerless Power, One Soul and Four Bodies

The grayish-white teeth clicked together, producing a dull thud. It didn't bite its target; it was just the teeth colliding, making a sickening "sizzling" sound.

Luo Jiuxiao reacted quickly, noticing something was wrong. He immediately rolled forward, releasing an energy body wrapped in scorching flames. This energy body, like a fire serpent, slithered along the ground towards Luo Ranyu.

Luo Ranyu continued casting her spell, unleashing her first soul skill, Shadow Fang! Another hideous black maw emerged from the ground, but this time it didn't attack; instead, it blocked the fiery energy orb on the ground.

Squeak~ Boom!

"It can be used like this?" Luo Jiuxiao was shocked. He hadn't expected that this soul skill could be used to intercept attacks.

He didn't dare to be careless, quickly gathering his soul power and releasing two more energy bodies as a feint to attract Luo Ranyu's attention. At the same time, the purple soul ring behind him suddenly lit up, and he activated his third soul skill at full power!

Instantly, an invisible force filled his body, and then, like an arrow released from a bow, he shot towards Luo Ranyu.

While skillfully dodging the shadowy fangs that occasionally surged from the ground, he closed the distance with Luo Ranyu, the flames on his tiger claws burning even hotter.

Seeing how agile his opponent was, Luo Ranyu gave up using Shadow Fang, but Luo Jiuxiao was too fast, so he had to quickly summon a black shield to block his opponent.

Luo Jiuxiao clenched his fists, his flame power reaching its peak, and he struck with all his might, hitting Luo Ranyu's soul power shield.

Bang! Sizzle!

With just one punch, he shattered the shield. Luo Ranyu was slightly taken aback. He held his breath and focused his mind. He immediately gathered his soul power and combined it with the Golden Gang Divine Skill he had learned on his own. His soul power formed another protective layer around his body. With a loud thud, he could still feel the enormous pressure sweeping over him.

At the same time, even more terrifyingly, a blazing pillar of fire erupted from beneath his body, as if a volcano had sprung up. Instantly, flames shot into the sky, and a wave of heat assaulted him, completely engulfing him in the scorching beam of fire.

Luo Ranyu has many special memories in his mind. By analyzing his own martial soul, he believes that he is lacking in physical constitution. Therefore, he chose a special technique in his mind - the Golden Gang Divine Art! He also calls it the Vajra Indestructible Technique, but he has only learned a little bit of it so far, and it is not yet able to effectively resist Luo Jiuxiao's full-force attack.

Seeing the flames erupt, Hua Xi'er covered her mouth with both hands in alarm, her brows furrowing slightly. "Oh dear, you idiot Xiao Jiu! You hit so hard!"

The fiery aura suddenly erupted and then quickly dissipated, while Luo Ranyu was repelled by Luo Jiuxiao. The fierce beam of fire had a strong impact, making him feel slightly dizzy.

The immense impact swept him up, sending him flying backward. In that critical moment, the scattered, dark energy behind him suddenly coalesced, transforming into a dense barrier of black mist. As Luo Ranyu's body passed through the black mist, the violent impact was greatly mitigated; the black mist, like soft cotton, absorbed most of the force.

As the black mist dissipated, Luo Ranyu landed steadily, staggering a couple of steps before regaining his balance, the dizziness subsiding as well. He wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, secretly shocked: "The power of that punch was terrifying; it must have used a powerful soul skill."

He was right. Luo Jiuxiao had just used his third soul skill – Tiger Descending the Mountain! It not only instantly increases his strength by 40% and agility by 20%, but also strengthens the next attack, giving it terrifying destructive power and explosive force. It is arguably his strongest killing move to date.

Moreover, Luo Ranyu is only around level 23, while Luo Jiuxiao is already a three-ring Soul Master. So, at least for that brief moment, Luo Ranyu was at a complete disadvantage.

Seeing that Luo Ranyu had not been defeated, Luo Jiuxiao was no less shocked than his opponent, but the amplification effect on him was still in effect, so he did not hesitate at all and immediately launched another fierce attack.

At the same time, Luo Ranyu had also adjusted his state, his hands quickly forming hand seals, his soul power surging wildly, and two dazzling soul rings appeared, purple and black! Two soul rings, but both were ten-thousand-year soul rings! This was also thanks to the help of Ye Wuqing and Yu Mengdi, who enabled him to obtain this black soul ring.

At this moment, his first purple spirit ring glowed slightly, and three different elemental spirits surrounded his body. In his right palm, three elemental cores were encircling him: a crimson flame core, a light blue ice crystal core, and a purple lightning core.

He couldn't defeat his opponent by relying solely on the Shadow Fang, so he used the more common fire, ice, and lightning elemental martial souls.

He secretly gathered his soul power in his palm, and a moment later, he flicked his hand, and in an instant, a purple lightning ball that had been condensed to the extreme shot out at an extremely fast speed!

The lightning ball was too fast, and there was no sign of it being condensed at all. It was as if the soul skill was released in an instant. Even with Luo Jiuxiao's agile physical skills, it was difficult to dodge it in a short time.

This is one of the first soul skills of the Three Elemental Martial Souls—Extreme Shadow Burst Lightning! Its characteristic is speed! Whether it's the release of the soul skill or its flight, it's extremely fast, with low consumption and high cost-effectiveness!

Although it is a thousand-year-old soul skill, its actual power is somewhat reduced. After all, the release time of the soul skill has been compressed so much that its power will inevitably be reduced.

Just as Luo Jiuxiao was about to be hit by the Extreme Shadow Explosion Lightning, he did not dodge. Instead, flames burst from his body, and with a flick of his wrist, Boom! Another pillar of fire erupted from the ground, engulfing the ball of lightning in front of him.

However, Luo Jiuxiao still underestimated the power of the thousand-year soul skill. Even if its true power was reduced, it was still a thousand-year soul skill, just a difference between six thousand and two thousand years.

At the same time, don't be fooled by the appearance of this Extreme Shadow Burst Lightning. You should know that it is "condensed to the extreme".

Thus, the instant the Extreme Shadow Burst Lightning was engulfed by the scorching beam of fire, the lightning ball exploded in the intense energy shock. But it was not a simple lightning explosion; it also formed a powerful beam of lightning in place. This pillar of lightning, carrying a powerful crushing force, advanced forward and impacted its opponent.

Then, a purple beam of light flashed out amidst the scorching flames. The next moment, the energy from the lightning beam instantly poured into Luo Jiuxiao's body, enveloping him in purple lightning.

He immediately frowned, his body stiffened, he felt dizzy, and his limbs went numb.

He has a strong physique and should be able to recover from the numbness quickly.

But Luo Ranyu wasn't about to give him a chance. He pushed out with another palm, and the ice element core in his hand shone brightly. In an instant, with the activation of Luo Ranyu's ice element soul skill and the direction of his will, ice began to form under Luo Jiuxiao's feet and quickly condensed upwards. In a moment, Luo Jiuxiao was completely frozen.
