Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 280 The Descent of the God of the Underworld

Death is terrifying for anyone, and Yu Yuanzhen was no exception. Although he knew that his lifespan was coming to an end soon, he still hesitated to sacrifice his life.

"Yu Yuanzhen, what are you hesitating for!"

Xiao Yu saw through Yu Yuanzhen's thoughts and mocked him mercilessly: "Given the current situation, you will surely die if you don't use the True Dragon Nine Crowns. Although you will die if you use them, your clansmen might be given a way to live. If you hesitate any longer, your clansmen will be wiped out!"

Yu Yuanzhen finally came to his senses. Under the attack of Dugu Bo and Aphrodite's poisonous mist, the original two hundred or so disciples who had survived were now reduced to less than thirty.

For Yu Yuanzhen, the inheritance of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul was above all else, including his life.

At this moment, there was no longer the slightest hesitation in his eyes.

"Xiao Yu, since you're so eager to see the True Dragon Nine Crowns, then just wait and see!"

Yu Yuanzhen's eyes gathered murderous intent, his gaze like two sharp daggers, fixed on Xiao Yu!

"The dragon has nine sons, who dwell on nine mountains. Each mountain has a crown, and all nine return to one!"

As Yu Yuanzhen chanted the incantation, the dragon bone fragments buried deep beneath the Nine Mountains broke through the soil. Eight of the fragments rapidly approached Yu Yuanzhen. As for the most complete head fragment among the nine dragon bone fragments, the Snow Jade Crown, its absorption conditions were even more demanding. Someone had to willingly sacrifice their life to the Snow Jade Crown in order to activate it, and only then could it be used by another person.

Yu Yuanzhen's body continued to absorb the other eight dragon bone lock screens, and his aura rose steadily. A dazzling blue-purple light shone around him like a blazing sun.

"Behold, this is the pride of our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family! Xiao Yu, you brat, though I don't know why you let me unleash the True Dragon Nine Crowns, now, prepare to die!"

About 15 minutes later, Yu Yuanzhen finally finished absorbing all eight dragon bone fragments. This was the biggest flaw of the True Dragon Nine Crowns: the fusion and absorption process took far too long.

Aside from opponents like Xiao Yu who deliberately indulged Yu Yuanzhen just to witness the true strength of the Nine Crowns of the True Dragon, what normal enemy would allow Yu Yuanzhen to absorb it for so long?

Therefore, although this move is incredibly powerful when used in the end, in terms of practicality, it is not on the same level as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Distraction Control or the Haotian School's Exploding Ring Great Sumeru Hammer.

Having completed the absorption, Yu Yuanzhen transformed once again based on his Martial Soul True Body. A giant thunder dragon, hundreds of meters long, roared and coiled in the sky. Blue-purple thunder power surged from his body like a surging river, eventually enveloping his entire body.

Although he failed to absorb the most important Snow Jade Crown, Yu Yuanzhen still raised his strength to the demigod level by absorbing the other eight dragon bone fragments. All nine of his soul rings turned into a dark red color, a unique color of 99,999-year-old soul rings.

"Is this the True Dragon Nine Crowns? If I absorb the final Snow Jade Crown, the age of all my spirit rings will probably increase to 100,000 years!"

Xiao Yu quietly sensed the fluctuations of soul power emanating from Yu Yuanzhen. At this moment, Yu Yuanzhen's strength should be on par with Tang Chen after completing the Eight Trials of the Asura God. However, considering that Tang Chen had already been drained by the Nine-Headed Bat King at that time, in terms of true strength, Tang Chen was still superior to Yu Yuanzhen at this moment.

"Indeed, although I failed to absorb the most important Snow Jade Crown among the Nine Crowns of the True Dragon, my strength has now broken through to the level 99 limit. Even the once-renowned Yue Qiandaoliu and Tang Chen might not be able to defeat me. Xiao Yu, it's too late for you to regret it now!"

With a roar, Yu Yuanzhen's massive body twisted, his soul power gathered, and his nine soul rings flashed in turn. Terrifying lightning power erupted from his body, and the ninth soul ring, which had turned into a dark red color, burst out with dazzling brilliance at this moment, shining even brighter in the night sky.

Ninth Soul Skill: The Wrath of the True Dragon Shakes the Nine Heavens!

Thunderclouds rolled across the sky, and countless massive bolts of lightning crashed down upon Xiao Yu. The sheer force of the attack sent chills down the spines of both Dugu Bo and Aphrodite, causing them to instantly halt the release of the poisonous mist and unleash their soul power to protect themselves.

As for the remaining twenty-odd members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, their minds went blank under this terrifying pressure, and they had already fainted.

And this is just the beginning.

Nine loud bangs followed in quick succession as nine enormous thunder dragons, each over a hundred meters long and formed from the power of lightning, crashed down.

"That's more like it!"

Xiao Yu laughed loudly. In tonight's battle, neither Qingluan Douluo nor Guangling Douluo could push him to his limit. Only Yu Yuanzhen, who had now transformed into a demigod, put pressure on him.

Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul True Form activated!

Unleash the Realm of the Underworld!

The Soul Bone Skill of the Ten Thousand Year Old Torso, the Holy Body of the Underworld Emperor, is activated!

Xiao Yu's aura also surged instantly, and his soul power surged out continuously, creating a fierce confrontation with the nine thunder dragons that were swooping down. The terrifying energy rippled outwards.

"Die, Xiao Yu!"

Yu Yuanzhen's roar echoed in the sky, and the thunder dragon he had transformed into roared as it charged toward Xiao Yu.

"In that case, let's settle this with a single blow!"

Xiao Yu let out a long roar, and his ninth soul ring, which had three golden patterns, lit up.

Behind Xiao Yu, a huge phantom slowly rose up.

This phantom was entirely grayish-black and nearly a thousand meters tall. The giant dragon that Yu Yuanzhen had transformed into looked no different from a small earthworm in front of it.

The moment this phantom appeared, the temperature of the entire True Dragon Mountain plummeted. The chilling energy fluctuations seemed to change the very color of heaven and earth. The phantom exuded an unparalleled aura, making people unable to resist the urge to bow down and worship it.

This is the second soul skill that Xiao Yu's ninth soul ring bestowed upon him: the Descent of the Underworld God!

The moment the God of the Underworld descended, the world was created anew, the dead were silent, and the thunder dragons generated by the nine soul skills exploded in an instant, the thunderous power contained within dissipating into nothingness under the pressure of the God of the Underworld.

"roar!"

Yu Yuanzhen roared, his entire dragon face filled with resentment, and intense lightning power continuously erupted from his body as he stubbornly launched a final assault.

The god of the underworld behind Xiao Yu slowly raised his giant sword, hundreds of meters long, and slashed down with it.

The longsword cleaved through the sky, causing it to tremble violently. Several bottomless black holes suddenly appeared in the air, and space itself was truly torn apart!
