Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 644 The Ultimate Answer to Fighting the Gods (Daily Wishlist)

The venomous wind dragon swept across everything around it, completely enveloping Meng Hongchen's invincible shield.

The protective shield, once hailed as invincible, now appeared so fragile before this tornado, a fusion of storm and deadly poison. The high-frequency cutting sound was like thousands of sharp blades relentlessly sawing through the hard metal, sending chills down one's spine.

Tiny cracks began to appear on the invincible shield. Under the dual assault of the poison and the storm, the cracks rapidly expanded, like a fragile spider web quickly shattering in a gale.

Meng Hongchen's face turned pale. She could feel the powerful impact constantly eroding her soul power, and the defensive barrier she had released gradually collapsed under the erosion of the storm.

The invincible shield's defense not only has a maximum limit, but also depends on the soul power lost by the soul master when erecting the invincible shield, which is completely different from Jiang Nannan's invincible golden body.

The higher the damage the invincible shield withstands, the longer the attack time, and the more frequent the attacks, the greater the consumption of the soul master's soul power.

Meng Hongchen was in this predicament. The venomous wind tornado, imbued with the poison of the Ice Toad, was constantly cutting through the invincible shield she had released, and was evenly spreading the poison of the Ice Toad on the shield, making a hissing sound.

Although the invincible shield she used was at level six, theoretically capable of withstanding the attack of a titled Douluo-level expert for three seconds without breaking, the destructive power of the poisonous wind tornado was far from reaching the killing power of a titled level expert.

But so what? Maintaining such a level six invincible shield consumes an enormous amount of Meng Hongchen's soul power!

"I give up!"

Feeling that less than half of her soul power had been almost completely depleted in a short moment, Meng Hongchen cried out in panic.

If Meng Hongchen hadn't used all three of her soul skills at once right from the start, she wouldn't be in such a sorry state. After all, she was a Soul Emperor-level expert, and if she had gone all out, she could have easily held on for just one more breath until the poisonous tornado dissipated.

However, the desire to defeat Huo Yuhao and teach him a painful lesson seemed to slither into her mind like a greedy silver snake, causing her to make an irrational decision as soon as she entered the arena, which greatly depleted her own soul power.

This is why Meng Hongchen had to admit defeat even after activating his invincible shield.

Her shout was so loud that even Huo Yuhao, a Soul Master with excellent hearing, couldn't help but frown.

She was terrified by the fear.

Meng Hongchen has grown up in the giant ivory tower of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy since he began cultivating, but he also understands how terrifying his Ice Toad Poison is.

Zhu Qingbingchan's situation is somewhat similar to Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire Phoenix; its own cold poison can backfire on its master. If not handled properly, the Soul Master will die from the cold poison attacking their heart. Therefore, it is rare for someone to cultivate into a powerful being.

If Huo Yuhao's Poisonous Wind Tornado were to actually tear through his invincible shield, and the gale were to tear through his skin, allowing the twice-enhanced Ice Toad Poison to invade his body, Meng Hongchen would most likely die directly from his own Ice Toad Poison!

That's why Meng Hongchen, disregarding her disheveled state, shouted out the words "I admit defeat."

The referee was already on edge because of the previous mistake.

Upon hearing Meng Hongchen's plea for help, they acted almost instantly.

Suddenly, the Martial Soul True Form was activated, and a huge soul guide shield was erected to block the path of the poisonous wind tornado.

However, the referee clearly underestimated just how terrifying the venomous tornado, which was imbued with the venom of the Ice Toad that had been enhanced more than once, truly was.

The raging gale tore fine gashes through the referee's soul shield, and the Ice Toad Poison, like venomous snakes, burrowed into the shield with a hissing sound, leaving it riddled with holes.

The relentless gale tore the already brittle shield, which had been corroded by the cold poison, to shreds!

The next moment, the soul shield in the referee's hand was shattered by the gale and merged into the gale. The gale, which was torn into fine metal fragments and carried a deadly poison, became even more lethal and slammed into the referee!

"boom!"

The referee, who had released his Martial Soul True Form, and Meng Hongchen in his arms were instantly blasted away by a poisonous wind tornado carrying metal fragments before gradually dissipating.

As the sound of shattering fragments falling to the ground rang out, the venom of the Ice Toad and the metal shards corroded into dust fell to the ground in the gale, as if a hailstorm had fallen on the Soul Arena.

On the platform, Jing Hongchen could no longer sit still.

He suddenly stood up, watching the scene on the stage with nervousness.

A seventh-level Soul Master, a Soul Saint, was instantly blasted away while activating his Martial Soul True Body and using a seventh-level Soul Guidance Shield; his fate remains unknown.

How is that possible!

Fortunately, Jing Hongchen soon saw a scene that made him somewhat relieved. Although Meng Hongchen was pale, she managed to break free from the referee's embrace and stood up unsteadily.

However, the referee on the field was not so lucky. The metal fragments from the soul-guided metal shield that was torn apart by the gale exploded on his back, and a considerable portion of them were tainted with the Ice Toad Poison that Meng Hongchen had enhanced twice.

By this time, the referee's clothes on his back had long been torn apart by the gale, and his broad back was covered in blood and flesh, but not a drop of blood flowed out—his blood had been frozen by the poison of the Ice Toad!

It can be said that the creation of such a terrifying poisonous metal storm was the result of the joint efforts of Huo Yuhao, Meng Hongchen, and the referee. If any link in the chain had gone wrong, the storm blade that Huo Yuhao initially unleashed would not have become so lethal.

This made Huo Yuhao's eyes suddenly become deep, allowing him to use the attacks of others to his advantage and become stronger with each battle.

Huo Yuhao suddenly realized the commonalities between the two ultimate techniques, Poisonous Wind Tornado and Lightning Retribution, but he didn't know how to turn the enemy's attacks into his own power. He only had a vague idea in his mind.

But Huo Yuhao was certain that this might be the ultimate answer to fighting against Soul Masters, or even gods. However, at present, Huo Yuhao could only write down a "solution" in the answer section of this difficult question.

"Little sister, don't come down yet! Referee, Mr. Referee!"

Xiao Hongchen stopped Meng Hongchen, who wanted to get off the stage quickly and recover her wounded heart, and eagerly gestured with her lips towards the referee.

"ah!"

Only then did Meng Hongchen belatedly remember the referee who had been beaten unconscious. She nervously knelt down beside him and began to detoxify him.

Meng Hongchen was speechless at this moment, her eyes filled with shame and indignation. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Huo Yuhao not far away.

Without her all-out effort to concentrate the Ice Toad Poison, even if Huo Yuhao's whirlwind carried highly lethal metal shavings, it would never have been possible to catch the referee off guard and knock him unconscious.

The best proof is that the referee loosened his grip on his arm before losing consciousness.
