The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 272 Dust Heart Battles Golden Crocodile

One hundred miles outside Heaven Dou City, this place is deserted and devoid of spirit beasts. Sword Douluo and Golden Crocodile Douluo are a hundred meters apart. Although neither of them makes any move, their auras are firmly locked onto each other.

Li Xun found a relatively safe distance to put Qian Renxue and Ning Fengzhi down, and then focused intently on observing their movements.

This move puzzled Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue, but now was not the time to dwell on such matters, because Golden Crocodile Douluo had made his move.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Golden Crocodile True Form." Unlike swordsmen, Golden Crocodile Douluo doesn't need so many twists and turns; he only needs to break through with force.

As the seventh spirit ring shone, the originally clear sky was instantly covered with dark clouds. A colossal creature, about five or six meters long, roared and a beam of light tore through the clouds and shot straight at Sword Douluo.

As a swordsman, one places great importance on the flow of energy, seeking out that one moment of weakness in one's opponent.

"Seven Killings True Form." The moment Golden Crocodile Douluo made his move, Sword Douluo's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

The Seven Kills Domain activated, and the seventh, third, and sixth spirit rings beneath his feet flashed in succession. Stepping on the Seven Kills Domain, carrying countless flying swords, he charged straight at the Golden Crocodile—a feat known as Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin.

Faced with this attack, Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression turned solemn. He had lost the initiative and could only defend. His first and sixth spirit rings lit up, and a massive golden crocodile surrounded him, emanating a dazzling golden light.

Ding ding ding—

A dense cacophony of sounds echoed across the desolate wilderness as all the flying swords were deflected by the Golden Crocodile King's body, scattering everywhere and causing immense damage to the land.

Sword Douluo had anticipated this situation. His sixth spirit ring shone, and the Seven Kill Sword beneath his feet hummed continuously. It transformed into a white rainbow and shot out, seemingly tearing through the sky and instantly shattering the phantom of the Golden Crocodile King, heading straight for the Golden Crocodile Douluo's face.

"Well done!" Facing danger, Golden Crocodile Douluo revealed a crazy smile, his body suddenly falling backward, and then spinning once in the air at an extremely fast speed, his tail instantly lashing the side of the Seven Kill Sword.

Boom!

The Golden Crocodile Douluo's tail, connected to the illusory image of his martial soul, collided with the Seven Kill Sword. After a loud bang, the Seven Kill Sword changed its trajectory and plunged headlong into the mountain peak five miles away.

The mountain, which was originally quite large, was flattened in an instant.

The blow finally turned the tide for Golden Crocodile Douluo, and he abandoned his contempt, his eighth spirit ring lighting up: "Starfall".

The enormous Golden Crocodile King roared, its gaze locking onto Sword Douluo. It then shot out at incredible speed, its massive body rapidly rolling and accelerating until it crashed down like a meteorite tearing through the atmosphere.

boom-

If a meteorite were to strike the Earth, the massive shockwave would spread in all directions, whipping up clouds of mud, sand, and dust, turning trees and plants with a diameter of two to three hundred meters into dust.

Even Li Xun and the other two were affected, and for a moment they couldn't see the situation clearly.

Suddenly, the world changed dramatically. A gigantic Seven Kill Sword appeared from the sky and was immediately grasped by a phantom figure who was half-demon and half-god: "Slaying both gods and demons, the sword path transcends worldly desires."

A deep sound enveloped the land, and streaks of sword energy fell instantly.

"Well done!!" Facing the relentless onslaught of sword energy, Golden Crocodile Douluo spread his arms wide, laughed loudly, and the ninth blood-red soul ring beneath his feet lit up.

The Golden Crocodile King's scales stood up, and its body swayed rhythmically. Each sway created a layer of red ripples. Then, the massive crocodile bit its own tail, forming a ring that began to spin rapidly.

A sudden gust of wind arose, and the earth trembled. The enormous Golden Crocodile King was now like a golden-red tornado, its nasal roar mingling with fury as it faced Sword Douluo's sword energy.

Boom boom boom—

The continuous sounds left Li Xun and his companions with only a buzzing in their ears, and the dissipated sword energy left deep furrows in the ground.

As a veteran powerhouse, Golden Crocodile Douluo possessed terrifying strength. He intercepted each sword aura with his formidable power, causing some damage, but his momentum did not diminish in the slightest, and he soared straight into the sky.

Sword Douluo unleashed twelve sword energies in succession, but Golden Crocodile Douluo blocked them head-on. Faced with this situation, he showed no emotional fluctuation.

Looking at the unparalleled aura emanating from the massive golden crocodile king, he gained some insights.

Releasing the Seven Kill Sword from his hand, letting it fall from the sky, Sword Douluo seemed to be holding a sword from his heart: "Half a lifetime of trials and tribulations, all returned to one sword."

At this moment, all the previous twelve swords, as well as the other skills on the soul ring, seemed to have transformed into this one attack.

A streak of white light flashed, and the world seemed to lose its color. The Golden Crocodile King's rapidly spinning body was instantly sliced ​​in two, then it charged towards Golden Crocodile Douluo.

"A breakthrough in the heat of battle!" Golden Crocodile Douluo's heart skipped a beat, and his evaluation of Sword Douluo rose even higher.

The sword energy had already reached him, but because it had collided with the Golden Crocodile King before, its power had decreased and it no longer posed a threat to him.

Having dodged the sword energy, Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at Sword Douluo, whose aura was even stronger: "Truly, new talents emerge in every generation. You have now surpassed your father, Dust Sword Lord. How about we consider this a draw?"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Sword Douluo's eyes flashed. He had just seen his path ahead and now needed a quiet place to contemplate it: "Then thank you very much, Second Elder."

Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded. He was confident he could defeat Sword Douluo before, but now that his opponent had broken through, the outcome was uncertain. Since it wasn't a life-or-death battle, no one could predict the final result.

Moreover, he himself has gained something from this match and needs to quietly absorb it.

He had been stuck at level 98 for nearly 20 years and hadn't left the Spirit Hall for 50 years. Unexpectedly, today's battle actually loosened his bottleneck.

Have I been living too comfortably all these years?

Golden Crocodile Douluo sighed. If that were really the case, wouldn't he have wasted all these years of his life?

"Miss, since you don't want me to stay by your side, then I will return to Wuhun City. However, I will explain this matter to the Grand Elder in detail." Golden Crocodile Douluo turned to look at Qian Renxue.

He came here to protect Qian Renxue, not on Bibi Dong's orders. His previous actions were simply because he had witnessed Qian Renxue's growth and wanted to test this little princess of the Spirit Hall.

As for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Sword Douluo, these were completely unexpected situations.

Besides, Qian Renxue seems to trust these people more than she trusts herself now, so let the Grand Elder and the Pope worry about the rest.

However, unless they take action themselves, they really have no way to deal with a powerful level 98 Douluo.

Seeing that Golden Crocodile Douluo was about to leave, Qian Renxue was overjoyed: "No problem, Second Elder, just report the truth. Also, please pass on a message to Grandpa for me, saying that I am doing well and he doesn't need to worry."

Upon hearing this, Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded, turned around, and transformed into a long rainbow, disappearing into the distance.

Seeing his opponent retreat, Sword Douluo suppressed his aura and landed beside Ning Fengzhi. He was about to lead the group back to Tiandou City when he suddenly noticed that Li Xun was acting strangely.
