Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 113 Lan Xue Battles Tang Hao Again

Compared to Tang Hao, who was all alone, Lan Xue and Dugu Bo were actually at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.

This is also Tang Hao's characteristic. No matter what kind of opponent he faces, he will suppress them with his aura from the very beginning. Even if they actually fight and the opponent is stronger than him, he will still use his offensive power to suppress them.

When ordinary people encounter such an opponent, they are often overwhelmed by the first move and feel a sense of satisfaction.

Lan Xue was, after all, just a woman, and had been severely injured and nearly killed by Tang Hao's hammer, so she inevitably had some psychological trauma.

She could sense that their soul power was roughly equal, but she also understood that the difference in their combat strength was probably even greater than it had been back then.

Because back then, Tang Hao didn't have a full soul bone, let alone a 100,000-year soul ring.

And after all these years, his skill in exploding rings has probably become even more proficient than before, enabling him to defeat Chrysanthemum Demon and severely injure Pope Chihiro in a three-on-one battle.

Although she had consumed two immortal herbs, their medicinal power was so strong that she absorbed them very slowly. She had only absorbed a small portion, and the enhancement to her body was not significant, far less than that of her entire soul bone.

"No, if I continue to be suppressed by the God of Slaughter's Domain like this, I will be defeated without a fight. No matter what, I must fight him." Lan Xue said with her halberd held high, "Tang Hao, let me test your Haotian Ultimate Technique once again today."

"Come on!" Tang Hao had no choice but to fight with all his might, after all, Lan Xue was a Title Douluo no matter what.

If I don't show off my skills, it won't be easy to get her to give up the 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast that's right in front of her just by talking.

Lan Xue launched a fierce attack with her halberd, while Tang Hao blocked it with his hammer.

The moment the halberd and hammer clashed, accompanied by a loud explosion, the surrounding scenery completely changed, centered on the two men.

Behind Lan Xue, the land was completely turned into wasteland, as if it had been plowed by hundreds of oxen.

Behind Tang Hao, there was a blanket of frost; the remnants of their power alone were enough to obliterate a Soul Douluo.

"This woman has incredible talent. She was only recently granted her title, so how did she reach level 95?" Tang Hao's expression remained unchanged, but he was actually shocked. His level breakthrough was due to the sacrifice and the 100,000-year soul ring.

The soul rings obtained through sacrifice are more compatible with the soul master than those obtained through hunting, and almost no soul power is lost from the soul rings. The powerful soul power contained in the 100,000-year soul ring has been gradually absorbed by him over the years, which is why his level has increased so quickly.

But what is Lan Xue relying on?

"Fifth Soul Skill, Mystic Ice Break!" Lan Xue didn't have as many thoughts as Tang Hao at this moment. She was fully engaged in the battle and didn't plan to use the first to fourth soul skills that took hundreds or thousands of years. At the very least, she had to start with a ten-thousand-year soul skill.

A colossal ice dragon roared forth.

"Sky-Piercing Strike!"

Tang Hao unleashed a hammer blow, striking the center of the giant dragon's head. The terrifying power spread throughout the dragon's entire body, instantly turning it into countless shattered ice fragments.

"Not bad ice power, it's just a pity that you've gone astray!" Although Tang Hao didn't know about the ultimate ice, he could clearly sense how huge Lan Xue's ice attribute potential was.

She clearly didn't have many ice-attribute soul rings, yet all the soul skills she used carried a strong freezing power, demonstrating the formidable strength of her original freezing power, which was truly frightening.

Unfortunately, no matter how strong the ice attribute ability is, it is always filtered and affected by other attribute soul rings. Even if it is not an attribute that clashes with ice, it is still inevitably interfered with.

Lan Xue's ice had long lost its powerful ability to freeze everything; the attacks she unleashed were just ordinary ice, which posed little threat to Tang Hao.

Lan Xue frowned. She was naturally unwilling to accept that her soul skill had been broken so easily. In fact, after advancing to the title level, she had already felt that her ice was so powerful. However, the most primal ice with extreme power, although it had not completely disappeared, seemed to be dormant deep in her body like a latent gene.

She desperately wanted to awaken it again; as long as she could use that power, she was confident she wouldn't lose to Tang Hao.

However, this is not something that can be resolved overnight. In any case, she cannot use the Ultimate Ice to deal with Tang Hao today.

"Tang Hao, don't be so arrogant. Don't forget I'm still here!"

Behind Lan Xue's ice dragon followed a jade-scaled serpent king.

"Hmph, Dugu Bo, it seems you don't understand the difference between an ordinary Title Douluo and a true Super Douluo. You have no right to interfere in today's battle." Tang Hao finished speaking coldly, and black shields surrounded his body. "Haotian Protection!"

Soul power transformed into a shield, enveloping Tang Hao.

The deadly poison that Dugu Bo spewed out could not penetrate it at all.

"Damn it, his soul power is surging yet dense, without any flaws. The poison can't even enter Tang Hao's body!" Dugu Bo was secretly shocked. Tang Hao's offense and defense were so perfect.

After being cured of the poison, he learned to use new deadly poisons. Dugu Bo believed that his poisons were now enough to pose a threat to a Title Douluo.

However, the prerequisite for a threat is that the venom or gas must enter the opponent's body.

Now that his poison is completely blocked outside his body by Tang Hao's soul power, what effect can it have?

The real level 95 is worlds apart from the self-proclaimed level 95 of Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Another hammer blow came, aimed directly at the vital spot of the Azure Scale Serpent King that Dugu Bo had transformed into. If this blow landed, Dugu Bo would be seriously injured even if he didn't die.

After all, aside from poison, his other physical attributes are among the worst of all the titled Douluo.

The Golden Body Technique he cultivated could make up for this shortcoming, but unfortunately, he had practiced it for far too short a time.

Taoist martial arts emphasize gradual progress. If Dugu Bo wanted to cultivate the Golden Body Technique to the point where his body was covered in golden light for combat, or even to the point of being indestructible, it would be impossible without several decades of practice.

Lan Xue rushed forward, desperately using her Xuanbing Halberd to block the Haotian Hammer and save Dugu Bo. "Mr. Dugu, please stay and cover for me while I deal with Tang Hao!"

Dugu Bo immediately retreated a hundred meters away, knowing full well that Lan Xue's words had been a gesture of respect for him.

The fact that the toxins couldn't enter Tang Hao's body meant that his role in this battle was extremely limited; the difference between level 95 and those below level 95 was simply too great.

Even if he and Lan Xue joined forces, the effect might not be that one plus one equals two. On the contrary, if he became Tang Hao's main target in the battle, Lan Xue would have to be distracted by helping him defend and would not be able to attack with all her might.

The only help he could offer was his eighth and ninth soul skills, as well as Medusa's gaze.

However, the ninth soul skill cannot be used recklessly. This place is not too far from the town where Nan Feihuang and the others live. The Azure Phosphorous Divine Light is an attack with a super large range. Once it spreads, even Dugu Bo himself will not be able to control it. At that time, the whole town will be green and the town will become a dead city. Nan Feihuang, Dugu Yan, and the rest of the Royal Fighting Team will not be spared either.

Only his eighth soul skill, Time Freeze, and his soul bone skill, Medusa's Gaze, were the support abilities he planned to provide.

Both of these moves are control-type soul skills, and the timing of their activation is extremely important; they cannot be used rashly.

Dugu Bo hid in the back, watching Lan Xue and Tang Hao's battle, secretly accumulating his soul power, determined to unleash it at the crucial moment.
