Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends

The other six members of the Canghui Academy team vanished without a trace, as if they had evaporated into thin air.

In front of the beam of light, the only one still clearly visible was Merida, standing proudly.

The crystal bow in her hand was also bathed in seven-colored light, its body shimmering with a dreamlike luster, and the bowstring hummed on its own, as if yearning to drink blood.

She held the bow in one hand and lightly touched the bowstring with the other. Her aura blended seamlessly with the seven-colored pillar of light, making her appear like a Valkyrie from mythology, radiating a chilling sense of oppression.

"hiss!"

In the VIP section, even the well-traveled and knowledgeable Emperor Xueye couldn't help but gasp, leaning forward and exclaiming in shock, "This, this could be... a seven-in-one martial soul fusion technique!"

Ning Fengzhi, standing beside him, also had an astonishing glint in his eyes as he stared intently at the seven-colored beam of light, his refined face filled with solemnity and inquiry.

Bishop Salas narrowed his eyes, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the armrest of his chair.

In Shrek Academy's preparation area, Flander's greedy smile froze instantly, his small eyes widening in shock. Liu Erlong abruptly stood up, her eyebrows raised in anger.

Yu Xiaogang's hand, which was pushing up his glasses, froze in mid-air. His pupils behind the lenses contracted sharply as his brain analyzed the scene before him at an unprecedented speed.

On the arena, the seven members of Shrek Academy were the first to be attacked.

Faced with this bizarre and unprecedented opening, even someone as calm as Tang San couldn't help but feel a hint of shock and astonishment in his eyes.

The enormous, seven-colored pillar of light emitted unsettling energy fluctuations, and the disappearance of the six people made them hesitant to attack, unsure where to direct their assault.

Dai Mubai's anger was forcibly suppressed by this sudden turn of events, replaced by intense vigilance and an increasingly strong sense of humiliation at being slighted.

The opponent didn't even give you a chance to make threats, and went straight for the big move?

Ma Hongjun swallowed hard and muttered under his breath, "Fatty, I knew this woman was weird..."

Zhu Zhuqing exuded a chilling aura, her sharp cat-like eyes scanning the seven-colored light pillar and Merida, searching for any possible flaws.

Substitutes Huang Yuan and Tai Long were sweating profusely; they had never seen anything like this before.

The brief, suffocating hesitation felt both fleeting and endlessly long.

"We can't wait! Attack the one with the bow first!" Tang San's eyes flashed, and he made a decisive move.

No matter what strange things the other party does, attacking the only visible target is always the right thing to do!

"Go!" Dai Mubai roared, his anger at being looked down upon and his fear of the unknown mingling with a ferocious fighting spirit. A white light suddenly flashed in his evil eyes!

"White Tiger, possess me!"

"Poisoned by the Phoenix!"

"Possessed by a spirit cat!"

……

On Shrek Academy's side, the four main players and three substitutes all had their spirit rings of different colors light up almost simultaneously.

Amidst the roars of beasts and the cries of phoenixes, their figures shot forth like arrows released from a bow, carrying an indomitable momentum, and charged fiercely toward Merida, the red-haired girl standing alone before the pillar of light.

Chapter 385 Attack

Just as Dai Mubai's White Tiger Blazing Light Wave was about to erupt, and Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Fire Line had already ignited a single line, the moment came.

Before the beam of light, a faint yet sharp and confident smile suddenly appeared on Merida's face.

The smile came so fast it was almost an illusion.

But Tang San's pupils suddenly contracted; he saw it.

It wasn't the tension or solemnity of being surrounded, but rather... the composure of a hunter watching his prey willingly step into the trap!

"retreat!"

Tang San's stern shout was almost synchronized with his instinctive reaction.

"Third Soul Skill, Blue Silver Growth!"

boom!

Centered on Tang San, countless thick and tough Blue Silver Grasses, like awakened giant pythons, instantly broke through the hard arena ground and spread outwards wildly.

The dark blue grass blades intertwined into a net, attempting to build a buffer barrier between their side and Merida, while also slightly hindering Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who were charging at the forefront, from moving backward.

However, Dai Mubai and the others had already launched their attacks. Blazing white light waves and scorching phoenix fire lines tore through the air, striking Merida from the left and right.

Merida seemed oblivious to the deadly combined attack.

She simply raised the gleaming crystal longbow in her hand steadily, without even aiming, her fingers lightly plucking the invisible bowstring.

call out!call out!call out!call out!

Four crystal arrows, sparkling and translucent yet trailing a cold, icy gleam, were released from the bow almost simultaneously!

The first arrow struck precisely at the point where the White Tiger's fierce light wave and the Phoenix's fire line intersected.

boom!

With a strange muffled sound, the crystal arrow was not shattered by the energy. Instead, it exploded into a dazzling seven-colored crystal light at the moment of collision, like the hardest shield, forcefully blocking and deflecting the two violent soul skill attacks.

The light waves and flames grazed Merida's side and slammed into the empty space behind her, sending up a shower of rubble.

The other three arrows, as if they possessed a life of their own, drew three elegant yet deadly arcs, avoiding everyone in front of them.

"Thud! Thud! Thud!" The three sounds landed precisely in three different locations on the arena, forming a triangular area that vaguely surrounded the seven Shrek members.

The moment the arrow hit the ground, a strange change occurred.

hum!

Centered on the landing point of the three crystal arrows, a layer of cold, translucent crystals shimmering with iridescent light spread wildly in all directions, like a living plague.

Wherever it passed, the hard arena floor was instantly assimilated into smooth, mirror-like crystal.

Click, click...

The crystals spread at an alarming speed, instantly covering a large area of ​​the arena. Even the Blue Silver Grass that Tang San had just nurtured, which was near the point where the arrows had landed, was rapidly stained with a beautiful yet lifeless seven-colored crystal luster from the tips of the grass the moment it came into contact with the crystals, solidifying into pieces of crystalline sculptures.

"what?"

"The arena... was..."

Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Huang Yuan and the others were abruptly stopped in their tracks, staring in horror at the terrain beneath their feet and around them that had changed in an instant.

The ground beneath your feet is no longer stone that provides grip, but a smooth crystal surface that makes it difficult to stand.

Large areas of the surrounding Blue Silver Grass defensive network have also become inactive and crystallized.

Merida's single strike changed the entire battlefield!

"We can't delay! We must take her down at close range!" Dai Mubai roared, his evil eyes flashing with ferocity, and the light of the White Tiger Vajra Transformation began to surge across his body.

He knew that if they allowed the other side to continue remotely controlling this strange crystal arena, they would be at a disadvantage in every way.

Zhu Zhuqing's figure flashed out like a ghost, attempting to bypass the crystal area from the flank and head straight for Merida.

However, Merida simply cast another mocking, almost pitying glance at them.

The next second, she leaped lightly backward.

It wasn't a retreat, but rather like a drop of water merging into the ocean, silently and completely disappearing into the enormous, slowly rotating, and swirling seven-colored pillar of light behind it.

"Disappeared!"

"They went into the light!"

The Shrek members were shocked.

The opponent's only figure had also disappeared, leaving only the ominous, seven-colored beam of light and the cold, smooth crystal arena beneath his feet.

"You're playing tricks!" Ma Hongjun, seething with anger, glared with his small eyes. "I'll burn this damn light of yours!"

"Second Soul Skill, Phoenix Reborn from the Ashes!"

He took a deep breath, his large belly bulging, and then a phoenix fire line several times thicker than before roared out and crashed into the seven-colored pillar of light.

However, the anticipated energy collision and explosion did not occur.

The blazing phoenix flames rushed into the pillar of light, but it was like a mud ox entering the sea, only causing the seven-colored light mist to churn slightly before falling completely silent, without even a ripple.

“It’s no use!” Ma Hongjun was dumbfounded.

Tang San's expression was extremely solemn.

"This light mist is strange. Not only can it conceal one's form, but it also seems to absorb or deflect energy attacks," he quickly analyzed, his gaze sweeping over the pillar of light.

"Don't get separated, go in together! Connect with the Blue Silver Grass, look out for each other!"

Dozens of tough Blue Silver Grasses quickly spread out from Tang San's body, wrapping around the waists of Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun, Huang Yuan, Tailong, and Jiangzhu respectively.

The seven people were connected by the Blue Silver Grass, communicating with each other and supporting one another.

"Go!" Tang San shouted, taking the lead and rushing into the mesmerizing, seven-colored mist. The other six followed closely behind.

Upon entering the light fog, vision is instantly distorted and obscured.

A seven-colored radiance flowed around him, and the naked eye could only see the area around him. His soul power perception was also severely interfered with and became blurry.

The silence around me was terrifying, as if I were completely cut off from the outside world.

"Watch out for a sneak attack!" Dai Mubai growled, the faint light of the White Tiger Protective Barrier enveloping his entire body as he warily surveyed his surroundings.

Before he could finish speaking...

laugh!laugh!laugh!

A sharp, piercing sound came from three different directions almost simultaneously.

Three crystal arrows pierced through the light mist without warning, striking Huang Yuan, Tai Long, and Ma Hongjun, who had just unleashed his soul skill, with extreme precision.

"Get out of the way!" Tang San's Blue Silver Grass suddenly exerted its force and pulled.

But the arrows came too fast and too suddenly.

With limited vision and perception, the reaction was inevitably a beat slower.

"Ugh!"

Huang Yuan and Tai Long barely managed to turn to the side before the arrows pierced their shoulders and arms, causing excruciating pain and gushing blood.

Even more terrifying, the flesh around the arrow wound began to rapidly shimmer with a crystalline luster, stiffen, solidify, and spread outwards.
