Douluo: Reborn as a Dragon, I am the Lord of Soul Beasts

Chapter 129

Lan Ruoruo barely adjusted her body shape in the air, but she felt her physical strength was greatly depleted and her consciousness began to blur. She gritted her teeth and used her last bit of strength to rush towards Huo Yuhao again, trying to make a final fight.

Huo Yuhao smiled coldly, and the power of the undead magic reached its peak at this moment. He suddenly clasped his hands together and controlled the undead dragon to pounce on Lan Ruoruo. Lan Ruoruo was no longer able to resist and was swallowed by the undead dragon. The whole person was swallowed by the black mist and disappeared on the competition stage.

When the black fog dissipated, only Huo Yuhao was left standing on the stage, the cold light of the humanoid soul guide shining brightly in the sun. And Lan Ruoruo had completely disappeared. The referee Ye Yulin looked solemn and announced Huo Yuhao's victory.

Huo Yuhao stood quietly on the competition stage, his eyes deep, without a trace of joy on his face. To him, this battle was just a small episode on his way forward, and his goal was far more than that.

The last match of the top eight was naturally between the evil soul master number 98. At this time, Huo Yuhao already knew this person's name, Huang Zheng. Huang Zheng faced the red-dressed girl from the Ordinary Alliance.

Huang Zheng, who usually looks very calm, showed his ruthless side this time. The claw-shaped soul guide in his hand was suitable for both long and short distances. He was determined and was not tempted by the beauty of his opponent. In the end, he cut off one of his opponent's arms, forcing him to admit defeat and advance.

The final four were He Caitou, Huo Yuhao, a member of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, and Huang Zheng.

However, the next draw made Huo Yuhao and He Caitou very depressed. In the top four, they drew each other and would face each other in the semi-finals.

"That's good. You have plenty of time to rest. I give up this game." He Caitou directly announced that he had given up the qualification to advance to the finals. Huo Yuhao won without a fight and entered the final stage.

The second game of the semi-finals, Huo Yuhao versus Huang Zheng.

“I never thought that a country bumpkin like you would have the chance to enter the finals. You are really lucky! But unfortunately, you are going to become the 98th dead soul under my hands. I hope you don’t admit defeat.” Huang Zheng stared at Huo Yuhao coldly and said with a grim face.

Huo Yuhao sneered, "It's still unknown who will win."

"The game begins." Ye Yulin was too lazy to listen to their trash talk and directly started this competition which was destined to be fierce.

Huang Zheng's giant claw soul guide was on his right arm. With a slight lift, the three sharp claws at the front popped out a chilling light blade more than three feet long.

With Ye Yulin's order, the semi-final battle officially began. Huang Zheng's giant claw soul guide was instantly activated, and the three-foot-long light blade exuded a cold murderous aura, as if ready to tear apart any target in its way. Huang Zheng's eyes were cold, and his momentum suddenly soared, like a bloodthirsty beast, locking onto Huo Yuhao tightly.

Huo Yuhao did not make any unnecessary movements, and slowly moved forward by controlling his humanoid soul guide. The steady pace and pressure emanating from the humanoid soul guide made people feel a little uneasy. Huo Yuhao's expression remained calm, and his mental power was highly concentrated, ready to respond to every attack from Huang Zheng at any time.

Huang Zheng sneered, lowered his body slightly, and rushed out suddenly. His speed was extremely fast, and he approached Huo Yuhao almost instantly. He swung his right arm suddenly, and the giant claw soul guide made a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and fiercely stabbed towards Huo Yuhao's chest.

Huo Yuhao was well prepared. At the moment when Huang Zheng attacked, he controlled the humanoid soul guide to retreat half a step, and at the same time, he suddenly raised his left arm to block Huang Zheng's attack. The two collided, making a deafening roar. The light blade of the giant claw soul guide was blocked, but Huang Zheng's power was still strong, forcing Huo Yuhao to retreat again and again.

Huo Yuhao stabilized his body and quickly counterattacked. His right arm turned instantly, spraying a high-temperature beam of light that hit Huang Zheng's face. Huang Zheng reacted quickly and dodged it suddenly. At the same time, his giant claws swung out again, sweeping towards Huo Yuhao's waist.

Huo Yuhao snorted coldly, and suddenly raised his left arm, releasing a powerful protective barrier to block Huang Zheng's attack. At the same time, his right arm once again fired a beam of light, which went straight to Huang Zheng's chest. Huang Zheng dodged again, but this time he was a step slower and was hit by the beam. His body swayed and he took a few steps back.

"Your reaction is pretty good," Huang Zheng said coldly, "but it's far from enough!"

Huang Zheng roared and accelerated suddenly, swinging his right arm's giant claw soul guide violently again. This time, his attack became even more ferocious. The light blade flashed cold light in the air, attacking Huo Yuhao's whole body like a sharp blade.

Huo Yuhao remained calm. He quickly analyzed Huang Zheng's attack trajectory, swung his right arm suddenly, and the mechanism of the humanoid soul guide quickly turned. A blazing beam of light shot out from the muzzle of his right arm and hit Huang Zheng's giant claw directly. The two collided in mid-air, and the fierce energy collision produced a strong shock wave that made the entire competition stage tremble.

Huang Zheng’s attack was blocked again, but he was not discouraged. Instead, he used the force of the collision to pounce forward. His body was as agile as a cheetah, and the giant claw soul guide on his right arm swung again. This time his target was Huo Yuhao’s left shoulder.

Huo Yuhao's eyes narrowed. He knew that he could no longer defend without attacking. He quickly focused his mental power and silently chanted the spell in his heart: "Summon the Undead!" As he chanted, a layer of cold black fog once again enveloped the competition stage. This time, there were more undead hidden in the black fog. They pounced on Huang Zheng like hungry beasts.

Huang Zheng was suddenly shocked. He did not expect Huo Yuhao to have such a strange method. Those undead seemed to have infinite power. Every attack was powerful, making Huang Zheng unable to resist for a while.

"Hmph! A mere trifle!" Huang Zheng roared angrily. His right arm shook violently, and the giant claw soul guide made a piercing roar. The length of the light blade increased again and it was swung towards the undead.

The undead were slashed by the blades and were torn into black mist and dissipated. But Huo Yuhao was not panicked. He knew that these undead were just interference, and the real killer move was behind. He quickly controlled the humanoid soul guide to go around to the side of Huang Zheng, raised his arms at the same time, and two powerful beams of light hit Huang Zheng's side and back one after the other.

Huang Zheng was entangled by the undead, and his reaction was a little slow, so he was hit by Huo Yuhao's beam. The power of the beam was extremely strong, and it directly penetrated Huang Zheng's armor. His body trembled violently, and the severe pain made him roar.

Huo Yuhao did not give Huang Zheng a chance to breathe. He launched another attack, and the power of the undead magic increased again. More undead shadows emerged from the black fog and rushed straight to Huang Zheng. At the same time, his humanoid soul guide also exerted force, and his arms continuously fired several beams of light, forming a dense firepower network, blocking Huang Zheng's retreat.

Huang Zheng was already in a tough fight. Although his giant claw soul guide was powerful, he was unable to resist the interference of the undead magic and Huo Yuhao's precise long-range attacks. After being hit many times, his soul guide gradually lost its effectiveness and his defensive ability dropped sharply.

"Damn it!" Huang Zheng roared, a hint of madness flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly stimulated all the soul power in his body, trying to make a final counterattack. But at this moment, Huo Yuhao's long-accumulated killing move finally launched.

"Judgment of the Undead!" Huo Yuhao's deep voice sounded, and the black fog on the entire competition stage suddenly condensed into a huge undead palm, which slapped Huang Zheng fiercely with endless power. Huang Zheng was instantly shocked by this powerful oppressive force. Before he could launch his attack, he was hit by this giant palm. He was directly slapped away and fell heavily on the edge of the competition stage. Huang Zheng struggled to stand up, but his body was severely injured and his soul guide could no longer operate. A trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, but in the end he could only fall to the ground powerlessly.

"The game is over, Huo Yuhao wins!" Ye Yulin's voice echoed in the court, announcing the winner of this semi-final.

Huo Yuhao glanced at Huang Zheng coldly, then turned and left the competition stage. His victory was not due to luck, but to his strong strength and calm mind. Having entered the finals, he was fully prepared for the next challenge.

Huo Yuhao nodded towards Ye Yulin and said, "Since I won, please ask the chief referee to give me a reward."

One after another, figures quietly appeared beside Huo Yuhao. It was the deputy leader who brought the four elders of the Holy Spirit Sect to Huo Yuhao.

The deputy leader stared at Ye Yulin with an evil look. She didn't say anything, but the rising momentum made Ye Yulin change color with horror.

Super Douluo. This person is actually a Super Douluo. A Super Douluo evil spirit master!

"Hmm? What do you mean, sirs?" Huo Yuhao frowned slightly.

The deputy leader smiled and said, "Of course not. It's just that we have something we want to discuss with you. Judging from your ability, you are an evil soul master."

Huo Yuhao said nothing. "What does this have to do with you?"

The deputy leader showed no emotion at all because of Huo Yuhao’s cold attitude, and continued to speak gently: “Of course it is related. Because we are the same kind.”

As she spoke, an aura that shocked Huo Yuhao and He Cai Tou instantly rose from her.

A gray-blue halo instantly spread behind her, followed by an extremely sharp whistle. The gray-blue light instantly rose to the sky and condensed into the shape of a phoenix. The extremely cold evil aura turned the sky above the competition stage gray-blue at an astonishing speed.

Such a strong evil spirit. Even with the cultivation base of Huo Yuhao and He Caitou, facing the aura emanating from this deputy leader, their bodies became cold and stiff, as if their souls were locked up.

Evil Phoenix. It turned out to be the Evil Phoenix martial spirit. A powerful martial spirit that is infinitely close to the ultimate evil.

This deputy leader is definitely a super Douluo, and his cultivation may even be higher than level ninety-five.

The four elders behind her had already stepped back a few steps, their faces filled with admiration.

The deputy leader's voice was still gentle. "You see, we are the same kind of people. Although I can't quite tell what your evil spirit is, if you join us, you will have everything." There seemed to be a strange charm in her voice, which made Huo Yuhao feel excited.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and tried to suppress his inner fluctuations, remaining calm on the surface. He had long been aware of the extraordinary aura of this deputy leader, but only when he was actually facing this super Douluo did he deeply feel the suffocating pressure.

The deputy leader's voice was gentle but full of irresistible power, as if every word was invading Huo Yuhao's mind. "Join us," she continued, "you will gain unprecedented power and status, and our Holy Spirit Church will be your strongest backing. You don't have to hide your abilities anymore, you will be truly respected here."

Huo Yuhao did not respond immediately. He lowered his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something. He knew very well that the deputy leader's intentions were not simple, and the "same kind" he mentioned aroused his vigilance. Although Huo Yuhao practiced some undead magic, he never regarded himself as an evil spirit master. His power came from his spirit and belief, not from evil corruption.

However, facing such a powerful opponent, Huo Yuhao knew that he had to act with caution. He said calmly: "Although your proposal sounds tempting, I have my own goals and pursuits. Thank you for your kindness, but I have no plans to join for the time being."

The deputy leader's smile was still gentle, but her eyes were slightly cold. She sighed softly, "You really disappoint me, Huo Yuhao. You don't have to rush to refuse. Perhaps you haven't really understood the power of our Holy Spirit Church yet."

As soon as she finished speaking, the four elders behind her took a step forward and released their own powerful spirit power. A strong evil aura instantly filled the entire competition arena, and their eyes were filled with undisguised murderous intent.

Huo Yuhao's heart sank. He knew that these people would never let him go easily. He Caitou had already prepared the control of the soul guide to the extreme, but he still couldn't suppress the fear in his heart. He knew that whether it was Huo Yuhao or himself, facing this deputy leader and the four elders, their chances of winning were slim.

Just when the situation was extremely tense, a deep and majestic voice suddenly came from the air: "Hand over what you have in your hands, and I can let you die more easily."

As the voice sounded, several figures suddenly appeared in the sky, each of them emitting a powerful soul power fluctuation, instantly suppressing the atmosphere on the competition stage. The leader was a middle-aged man wearing silver armor, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and his body exuded a strong aura of justice.

When the deputy leader saw these people appear, her eyes changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. She chuckled and said, "It turns out to be the White Tiger Duke of the Xingluo Empire. It seems that our conversation can only end here for the time being."

The middle-aged man looked at the deputy leader coldly and said in a deep voice: "The remnants of the Holy Spirit Church dared to do evil in broad daylight. Your doomsday has come. Today, I will never let you escape!"

The deputy leader was not threatened. She just smiled faintly and said to Huo Yuhao, “Huo Yuhao, my proposal is still valid. I hope you can consider it carefully. We will meet again.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the deputy leader and the four elders behind her flashed and instantly turned into several gray-blue lights, rushing towards Dai Hao.
