Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 780 Two-Character Combo (6K)

In front of the Duke's mansion, Dai Hao closed his eyes in anguish.

The feeling of being locked on and the chilling killing intent were clearly evident.

He knew in his heart that the resentment and killing intent that Huo Yuhao had accumulated for more than ten years could not be resolved by simply saying "when a person dies, the light goes out."

Conversely, if Dai Hao encounters someone who advises him to be magnanimous without understanding the situation, he should stay away from such a person, because when lightning strikes that person, he might get caught in the crossfire.

No way, surely no one would just forget everything after hearing that the Duchess is dead?

This battle between father and son is also inevitable.

When Dai Hao opened his eyes again, they were completely red.

Guilt, inner turmoil, sorrow, and regret.

Countless complex emotions were intertwined, and it was impossible for others to discern what he was thinking.

His already imposing body began to collide again, his muscles bulging and stretching his specially made upper body clothing, while his iron fists transformed into tiger claws.

Two yellow, two purple, and five black spirit rings—the perfect ratio of nine—appeared beneath his feet, pulsating rhythmically, unmistakably demonstrating the strength of a Title Douluo.

A flash of light appeared in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and another mental shock surged forth. His powerful mental force, which had surpassed that of a typical Super Douluo, was unleashed. Even Dai Hao, struck by this sudden attack, stiffened slightly, and his eyes instantly became dazed.

Just then, Huo Yuhao lunged forward, wielding the Wind Mantis Giant Shadow Slash in one hand and the White Tiger Dagger in the other, his movements nimble and agile.

Dai Hao barely regained his senses at the last moment before Huo Yuhao arrived.

He took a step forward, and his first, third, and fifth spirit rings lit up one after another.

Countless magical runes climbed up his body at that moment, causing his already tall body to swell even more, with his muscles bulging and veins standing out.

The enormous tiger-shaped creature, shrouded in a layer of pitch-black light, resembled a colossal statue forged from steel.

A yellow light quickly shone from his body, barely protecting his entire body before Huo Yuhao arrived.

With the blessing of the White Tiger Protective Barrier, the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, and the White Tiger Demon God Transformation, Dai Hao's overall defensive power greatly increased.

Immediately afterwards, a gust of wind rose from the ground, like a tornado rising in the desert. Even with Dai Hao's eyesight, he could only barely see Huo Yuhao wielding a massive and terrifying katana that was slashing towards him.

The sheer size of the weapon and the gusts of wind it generated when swung made even the White Tiger Duke feel a chill run down his spine.

Only now is Huo Yuhao truly capable of unleashing the full power of the Wind Mantis Giant Shadow Slash, a high-level melee soul tool.

Soul power surged and flowed towards the soul bone in the sword blade. A blue light flashed, and Huo Yuhao had already activated the soul bone skill in the sword blade.

[Combat Skill - Gale Sword Technique: Appearing instantly before the enemy like a howling storm, or like a mantis taking flight, appearing near the enemy in a flash, and wielding the scythe-like forelimbs to bring down the sword.]

Upon seeing Huo Yuhao appear before him in an instant, Dai Hao suddenly felt a surge of fear.

This son of mine, with whom I have no other connection besides blood, seems to be terrifyingly strong!

Subconsciously, he raised his arm to block Huo Yuhao's attack, but then Huo Yuhao's actions changed.

He raised the Wind Mantis Shadow Slash with one hand, switching from a ready stance to a mid-stance stance. He concealed the White Tiger Dagger in his left sleeve, gripped the Wind Mantis Shadow Slash with both hands, and continued to raise the sword upwards to the upper stance.

The power in his waist surged at this moment, and every muscle in his core was giving its all for Huo Yuhao's next strike.

With a heavy step forward with his right leg, Huo Yuhao's entire body seemed to transform into a bent bow, slender yet not thin.

The muscular waist then used the power of the lower body's stepping to transfer the force to the upper body like a slingshot. The 42-pound Wind Mantis Giant Shadow Slash came down from above with the speed unique to the Gale Sword Technique and a fierce wind, whistling down!

【One-Word Slash: A style of martial arts that delivers a heavy blow from above, dealing massive damage to the enemy. It is a merciless frontal slash, focusing solely on this one strike】

The One-Sword Slash is a samurai's signature technique, but when performed by a giant katana, it's more like an unstoppable, overwhelming blow, like a mountain collapsing. One can only imagine the magnificent sight that comes before death for someone facing this ultimate skill.

click!

A crisp sound rang out along with Dai Hao's muffled groan, and the White Tiger Protective Barrier shattered in response.

Although the White Tiger Martial Soul is a top-tier offensive Martial Soul, its attack and defense are far from being truly top-tier among top-tier offensive Martial Souls; rather, they are relatively balanced top-tier.

The high-level soul tool Wind Mantis Giant Shadow Slash, combined with the Gale Sword Technique and the One-Character Slash, was instantly condensed into a single point and erupted under Huo Yuhao's powerful physique and solid soul power. It actually managed to shatter the White Tiger Protective Shield of this Title Douluo.

Dai Hao was secretly shocked. No matter what, Huo Yuhao seemed to be just an ordinary Soul Emperor. Yet, this Soul Emperor was able to shatter his White Tiger Protective Barrier. Even Dai Hao had never seen such a monstrous Soul Emperor before.

Fortunately, the other party was only a Soul Emperor after all. This was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune. If I could really stop him, then everything would still be negotiable.

Whatever compensation Huo Yuhao wanted, he would do his best to make amends, as long as Huo Yuhao could take him to see Yun'er one more time and let go of his obsession.

"You can't even withstand one of my attacks, and you dare to get distracted?"

Huo Yuhao's voice slowly rang out, causing Dai Hao's heart to tighten suddenly.

What?

Isn't this Huo Yuhao's all-out attack? With the body of a Soul Emperor, he defied a Title Douluo and shattered his own White Tiger Protective Barrier. He already has enough to be proud of!

You should know that even an ordinary seven-ring Soul Saint might not be able to shatter my White Tiger Vajra Transformation and the White Tiger Protective Barrier enhanced by the White Tiger Demon God Transformation!

Before Dai Hao's eyes, Huo Yuhao's arm was raised once again, the veins on his arm bulging, the muscles on his strong forearm clearly defined, and gusts of wind like sharp blades swirling around the blade.

[One-Word Slash - Double Combo: A follow-up attack based on the One-Word Slash, capable of inflicting a devastating impact on the opponent's torso.]

[A merciless frontal slash; if countered, it can strike again, making the Ashina One-Strike Slash complete with a double strike.]

not good!

Only then did Dai Hao realize how much he had underestimated Huo Yuhao. He still did not regard Huo Yuhao as an opponent to fight to the death, let alone as an opponent of the same level.
