Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 28 Forest Team Battle (Part 2)

Third Soul Skill: Rising Dragon Strike!

Third Soul Skill: Whirlwind of Karmic Fire!

Third Soul Skill: Gale Shadow Breaker!

While Yao Liang, the strongest opponent, was bound by Eden, Xiao Yu, Zi Long, and Yi Hui all unleashed their strongest attacks.

Like a shadowy figure in the wind, a longsword thrust straight forward, shattering the martial spirit of the opposing sharp-edged soul master, and piercing through the soul master's chest in one fell swoop; a blue dragon soared into the sky, howling as it struck down a hawk; karmic fire from hell condensed into a terrifying whirlwind, burning the enemy's body, spirit, soul, and martial spirit to ashes.

At the same time, Xie Wu, being an agility-type character, also utilized his ability to cut through the back row. His third and second soul skills were activated simultaneously, and a pair of shimmering wings extended from his back. His body accelerated and instantly rose into the air, bypassing the crowd and heading directly towards the support-type soul master.

In the Soul Master system of Douluo Continent I, support-type Soul Masters have no ability to protect themselves, and this support-type Soul Master is no exception.

Xie Wu swooped down from the sky and kicked the support-type Soul Master squarely in the chest. The man coughed up blood and flew backward, crashing into several tree branches before coming to a stop.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Explosive Strike!"

In order to break free from Eden's restraints, Yao Liang used his fourth soul skill. After all, Eden was only a Soul Master, and Yao Liang's fourth soul ring should have been obtained from a soul beast from about 2,500 to 3,000 years ago. Even his third soul skill could not restrain him.

But after he escaped, he discovered that all his teammates were gone, and Xiao Yu and the other seven were already eyeing him menacingly.

"Damn it!"

Yao Liang cursed angrily and turned to run away. After all, he had been a teacher for many years, and he could tell that these Soul Masters were far stronger than the others. If they joined forces, he probably wouldn't be a match for them. Moreover, Xiao Yu's guards might arrive at any time. Of course, running away was the best option.

"Trying to run away!"

Just then, Io, who had been acting as an invisible man, made his move. His martial soul evolved from his previous life's abilities and possessed very unique abilities. Each of his soul skills could transform into a soul beast produced by a soul ring.

"First Soul Skill, Giant Serpent Constriction!"

With his first spirit ring lit up, Io's spirit instantly transformed into a python several meters long, moving at incredible speed, and coiled around Yao Liang, binding him tightly.

"Get out of here!"

Yao Liang roared, and his second and third soul rings lit up. After all, Yi Ao only had his first soul skill, so he couldn't really hold him off indefinitely. He broke free with just two soul skills.

But that short time was enough. Xiao Yu, Yi Hui, and Zi Long, the three powerful offensive Soul Masters, had surrounded Yao Liang from the front, left, and right. They unleashed their most lethal third Soul Skills at full power, attacking Yao Liang.

Yao Liang's expression changed drastically, and he quickly mobilized all his soul power to protect himself.

boom!

In the face of the intense clash of soul power, Yao Liang ultimately made a mistake. His hastily condensed soul power shield was shattered, and the three soul skills directly affected him, causing him to vanish into nothingness.

. . . . . . . . . .

After dealing with Yao Liang and the others, Xiao Yu dared not linger, fearing that the repeated battles would cause too much noise and attract some terrifying soul beasts, adding unnecessary trouble. He quickly led the group to move away from the area before settling down to recover their soul power.

As night fell, the group stopped their day-long search and set up their tents. After eating some dry rations, they all returned to their tents to rest. Milo and Huihuo no longer followed far behind. Most soul beasts followed the same schedule as humans, but some strange soul beasts chose to come out at night. These soul beasts were all highly aggressive, and their attack methods were extremely strange, making them difficult to defend against. If something really happened, it would be terrible.

In the latter half of the night, everyone in the tents was fast asleep. Although Soul Masters could use meditation to pass the night, the biggest drawback of meditation was the need for concentration. After a night of cultivation, while the physical condition would improve, there would be a period of mental fatigue. This was unacceptable when hunting Soul Beasts; if one couldn't concentrate under a Soul Beast's attack, it could lead to irreparable damage. Therefore, when hunting Soul Beasts, everyone had to rely on sleep at night to restore their optimal condition.

Only Xiao Yu, Zi Long, and Hui Huo, who were still on night watch outside, remained sober. They were responsible for guarding the second half of the night and had just replaced Yi Hui, Yi Dian, and Mi Luo, who were on guard duty for the first half of the night.

"There's movement!"

Huihuo, with his eyes half-closed, suddenly stood up and released his mental perception in one direction.

Before long, a blood-covered man staggered out of the dense forest, crawling and rolling, and collapsed a few steps away from Xiao Yu and his group's campsite.

"Help...help me!"

Because the injured person's voice was very soft, but because it was late at night and everything was quiet, it still reached Xiao Yu and the others' ears clearly.

"Young Master, what do you see?"

Hui Huo asked Xiao Yu for his opinion.

One should always be wary of others, especially in a place like the Star Dou Great Forest, where danger lurks everywhere and murder for treasure is commonplace. Therefore, when encountering a complete stranger, no matter how dire their situation may seem, Soul Masters will generally keep their distance and observe from the sidelines. Who knows if someone has set a trap, waiting for you to jump in and then stab you in the back? This is not an exaggeration, but a bloody lesson learned by countless Soul Masters with their lives.

"Let's go take a look!"

Having been in the Douluo World for over eight years, Xiao Yu was well aware of these things. However, after a moment's thought, he ultimately made his decision based on the moral and ethical lessons he learned on Blue Star in his previous life. Of course, it was also related to his confidence in his own strength. With a Title Douluo and a Soul Douluo, what was there to fear even if there were traps? Unless it was a group of Elders from the Spirit Hall setting a trap for them.

Seeing that Xiao Yu had made a decision, Hui Huo nodded, still somewhat wary, and walked over to the man, gently lifting him up and bringing him back.

Having learned some first aid in the wild at the Soul Master Academy, Xiao Yu immediately took the man from Hui Huo and examined his injuries. Upon examination, Xiao Yu couldn't help but gasp. The man's injuries were extremely severe, with wounds all over his body, almost no good flesh left. The exposed skin was black and charred like charcoal, as if he had been struck by lightning.

Xiao Yu shook his head. He only had some simple medicine, which wouldn't be of much use for such terrible injuries. None of them were healing soul masters. If Ye Lengleng were here, with his Nine-Star Begonia's heaven-defying healing abilities, he might have been able to fight against death for this person. But now, there was no way to save him!
