The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 69 Sword and Fingers

"Second Soul Skill, White Tiger Blazing Light Wave." Dai Mubai was furious to the extreme. Ignoring the fact that he was on the street, he spat out a white shockwave that rushed straight towards Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.

The streets of Soto City were crowded today. A large crowd had gathered to watch as Ning Rongrong mocked Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai's angry attack also included some bystanders.

This immediately drew gasps from the crowd: "This person is insane!" One passerby covered his head with his hands and exclaimed in despair.

"Damn coward."

"They ran away, but they won't even let people talk about it."

"Damn it." Dai Mubai's indiscriminate attack drew curses from those around him.

Seeing that the attack was about to affect the ordinary people around, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes narrowed, and she summoned her martial soul, Nirvana Nine-Tailed Fox, a sharp sword appearing in her hand.

Since her martial soul evolved, the most obvious change in her skill form is that she no longer relies on claws to attack.

"Second Soul Skill, Nirvana Hundred Slashes." Facing the White Tiger's blazing light wave, Zhu Zhuqing wielded her sharp sword and swiftly struck, instantly forming a sword net that shattered the white shockwave.

As the shockwave subsided, passersby breathed a sigh of relief. After thanking Zhu Zhuqing, Chong quickly retreated to a distance and peeked out secretly.

How did her ghostly cat turn golden? And it even grew nine tails! And what is that sword?

Dai Mubai's pupils contracted.

The Xingluo royal family and the Zhu family have been linked by marriage for generations, and their martial spirits are no secret to them.

Dai Mubai had never heard of the Netherworld Cat having another form. This martial spirit looked exceptionally noble; could it be that it had mutated?

Dai Mubai's thoughts raced for a moment, and then his expression became even colder.

It seems that Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul is still undergoing a positive mutation, and its quality may have already surpassed that of the Netherworld Cat and the Evil-Eyed White Tiger.

We must not let Zhu Zhuqing leave.

"Since you chose to betray me, you must pay the price. Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!" Dai Mubai roared, instantly pouncing out from his spot while using his Soul Skill to amplify himself.

"First Soul Skill, Instant Flash."

Seeing Dai Mubai rushing towards her, Zhu Zhuqing's expression turned cold. She made a sword finger gesture and slashed the blade. She thrust forward, leaving only an afterimage in place.

Dai Mubai's forward momentum faltered, and he stared at his chest in disbelief.

His clothes were torn at the chest, and a thin, long wound could be vaguely seen gradually widening from the tear. This was the effect of being swiftly cut open by a sharp blade.

"How is this possible?" Dai Mubai wiped his wound and stared blankly at the blood on his finger.

Keep in mind that he was a level 37 Soul Master and three years older than Zhu Zhuqing, but he only saw Zhu Zhuqing's phantom image for a moment during their confrontation.

With their talents being roughly equal, no matter how hard Zhu Zhuqing cultivated, she could not make up for the difference in age and soul power.

Based on his understanding of the Zhu family's martial spirit, the opponent's current soul power was at most around level twenty-four or twenty-five. He never expected the opponent to have cultivated to the Soul Master level, and that their skills had become so bizarre.

"What exactly happened? How could it have changed you so much?" Dai Mubai asked solemnly as he slowly turned around, his four pairs of eyes fixed on Zhu Zhuqing.

"Dai Mubai, I've made myself perfectly clear. We have nothing to do with each other anymore." Zhu Zhuqing twirled the Nirvana Sword in her hand, flicking the blood off its surface onto the ground. "As for what happened to me, I naturally have nothing to say."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai's expression turned cold, and his hands instinctively clenched into fists: "Zhu Zhuqing, I was careless just now. You don't actually think you can defeat me with just your cultivation level and this little bit of damage, do you?"

After saying that, he got into a fighting stance, his fist transforming into a tiger's claw.

"If you weren't the Star Luo Prince, that sword would have been aimed at your throat just now." Zhu Zhuqing's gaze was cold.

For a fleeting moment, she truly wanted to kill Dai Mubai with a single sword strike. However, considering that even if Dai Mubai was useless, he was still the Star Luo Prince, she couldn't cause trouble for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"Heh, you can try and see if you can kill me." Dai Mubai sneered, his four pairs of pupils constantly shifting as he observed his surroundings.

He admitted he had underestimated Zhu Zhuqing, and the sword in her hand was indeed more lethal than the claws of the Netherworld Cat. However, battles between Soul Masters sometimes depend not only on strength but also on their mastery of the terrain.

"Second Soul Skill, White Tiger Blazing Light Wave." Dai Mubai turned around instantly and used his Soul Skill once again. However, this time his target was not Zhu Zhuqing opposite him, but Ning Rongrong behind him.

As the master said, in a battle between Soul Masters, if the opposing team has a support Soul Master, you should prioritize defeating the support.

Although his battle with Zhu Zhuqing wasn't a team-based fight at this moment, who says you can't attack the opponent's support at this time?

"Despicable!" Zhu Zhuqing shouted angrily, thrusting her sword forward and disappearing from the spot.

"First Soul Skill, White Tiger Protective Barrier." Dai Mubai's lips curled into a cold smile as he used the soul skill at the perfect moment.

Although Dai Mubai did not know the principle behind Zhu Zhuqing's skills, as long as the opponent was not truly teleporting, the range of his first soul skill would be enough to affect her.

Zhu Zhuqing looked anxious as she thrust her sword forward, the blade flashing rapidly.

Her first soul skill, Blink, has a very short range and consumes very little energy, but it is limited by its direct thrust. The reason she can disappear in front of everyone is simply because she uses this skill continuously.

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

As Zhu Zhuqing walked past Dai Mubai, she caught a glimpse of the light shield he was about to form, and her anger surged instantly. During the pause, she slightly adjusted her angle.

As the two figures passed each other, the sharp blade instantly sliced ​​through Dai Mubai's tiger claws, which were poised to strike a pose.

But by then the light shield had already taken shape and was rapidly approaching her.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, her expression unchanged. With a lithe movement, she leaped from the ground, spun once in the air, and then stepped onto the light barrier, using the impact to increase her speed even further. Before the shockwave could hit Ning Rongrong, she dispersed it with a single sword strike.

The two exchanged blows so quickly that it took everyone else to react.

"You're despicable!" Ning Rongrong's face turned deathly pale, and she trembled with rage as she pointed angrily at Dai Mubai. Although she had often been disciplined since childhood, she had never experienced such danger.

At that moment, she was so frightened that her legs went weak. It took her a lot of effort to take two shaky steps to Zhu Zhuqing's side.

"Zhu Zhuqing, how are you?" Ning Rongrong asked with concern, grabbing Zhu Zhuqing's arm as she looked at her panting.

"It's nothing..." Zhu Zhuqing slowly shook her head, then took a deep breath. She was just in such a hurry to rescue that she was short of breath for a moment.

"The nine treasures are named: first, strength; second, speed; and third, soul." Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's performance, Ning Rongrong thought that her sister had suffered a hidden injury.

With a look of anger on her face, the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda in her hand instantly emitted a three-colored light and entered Zhu Zhuqing's body.

Since this Dai Mubai is so despicable, she's prepared to retaliate.

As a support-type Soul Master, although she couldn't personally take action, the Bamboo Clearing Technique, amplified by her Soul Skill, struck Dai Mubai. This could be considered as her taking action.

At this moment, Dai Mubai stared blankly at his three fingers lying on the ground. The sword was so sharp that his senses were delayed; he felt no pain, nor did he scream, but only felt a sense of absurdity.

He hadn't expected Zhu Zhuqing to be able to seize the opening in his skills and launch an attack in such a short time.

Tang San sensed something was wrong when he saw Dai Mubai's current situation: "Miss, it seems unfair for you to interfere in a one-on-one fight between them?"
