Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Chapter 260: The Oath of Rock
Just when Bupo Douluo was almost unable to resist taking action to stop the fight, Liuxing took the initiative to restrain his strength at the critical moment, and accurately controlled the strength, directing the aftermath of the force generated by the collision into the ground, thus avoiding Wang Donger's death.

After hearing Bupo Douluo's explanation, Huo Yuhao and the others all turned their gazes to Liuxing, their eyes filled with complex expressions, showing both gratitude for Liuxing's mercy and the vigilance and solemnity of being an opponent.

At this time, Meteor was slowly walking out of the huge pit.

As he walked, the blazing flames on the mecha gradually dissipated, revealing his true form. He walked with steady steps and a calm expression, as if the fierce battle he had just experienced was nothing to him.

Meteor shook his head and said calmly, "There's nothing to thank me for. It was just a game. I had no intention of killing anyone, and she did show me some good things."

Having said that, Liu Xing's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

In his opinion, the Haotian Sect's chaotic cloak hammer technique does have unique advantages, especially the unique method of storing power, which is really worth learning from.

However, this hammer technique is not invulnerable. Its pre-swing is too long and the charging process can be easily interrupted.

Just like in the previous match, Meteor actually had many opportunities to interrupt Wang Donger's charging process. If he hadn't been interested in the ultimate hammer after charging eighty hammers, the battle would probably have ended early.

Due to the fierce battle between Liu Xing and Wang Dong'er, the competition arena suffered severe damage. The surface of the arena was riddled with holes, gullies of varying depths and huge pits, and the ground had sunken in, creating a horrific scene.

Therefore, the second individual elimination match originally planned to be held immediately had to be temporarily postponed, and the second individual elimination match will be held ten minutes later.

The Tang Clan wanted to start the next battle as quickly as possible and not give Meteor even a moment's rest in order to increase their chances of winning.

The damage to the arena in front of us was so severe that the competition could not continue without repair.

In this situation, they could only suppress their anxiety and wait silently for the long ten minutes.

Although Liu Xing didn't care much about it, his Flame Lord's left leg bone gave him two hundred thousand year soul bone skills, one of which was Skyfire Bombardment, but the second was an earth attribute soul skill, Rock Oath.

As long as he is standing on the ground, he can continuously restore his soul power and vitality, which greatly increases his sustained combat capability. Although the restriction is that he must step on the ground to absorb the power of the earth to restore his soul power and vitality, it is also a good recovery skill.

So he is not afraid of the so-called round-robin battle.

With the Life Domain and the Rock Oath, he is an indestructible cockroach. Even if he fights for ten days and ten nights without sleep, he will not be afraid of meteors.

Time passed quickly amid everyone's anticipation and anxiety. Soon, a group of soul masters specializing in civil engineering rushed to the scene. These soul masters were well-trained and had clear division of labor. As soon as they arrived, they immediately started repairing the arena.

Because the movements are too skillful, it makes people feel distressed.

Only ten minutes later, the originally sunken and bumpy arena was completely restored to its original appearance after being repaired by the soul masters.

The arena now looked smooth, flat, and as solid as before, exactly the same as it originally was, as if any traces of the fierce battle before had never existed.

Such amazing and efficient restoration efficiency made the many spectators and team members present look solemn.

This seemingly simple arena repair process actually allowed them to see the strong strength of the Sun-Moon Empire in the field of infrastructure.

Previously, although they had heard that the Sun-Moon Empire had successfully built this large-scale, well-equipped competition venue on the outskirts of Mingdu in just three months, they still had some doubts in their hearts.

After all, it is incredible that such a huge project was completed in just three months.

But now, after witnessing with their own eyes how these soul masters restored the severely damaged arena to its original state in just ten minutes, the doubts in their hearts completely dissipated, and were replaced by deep shock and awe of the infrastructure capabilities of the Sun-Moon Empire.

Soon, Liuxing and Tang Clan's second contestant, Xiaoxiao, stood on the stage together.

In the stands, the audience's attention was once again focused on the competition stage. Liuxing still had a calm expression, while Xiaoxiao glared at Liuxing angrily.

Although Liu Xing showed mercy and did not harm Wang Dong'er's life, it was a fact that Wang Dong'er was seriously injured. Her arms were dislocated and her bones were almost broken. Her bloody appearance is still vivid in people's minds, which deeply hurt Xiaoxiao and the other people in the Tang Sect.

As Wang Donger's closest friend, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in her heart when she thought of Wang Donger's miserable appearance.

"Why? You want to avenge her."

Liuxing found it a bit funny. In a formal competition, injuries were inevitable due to inferior skills. Besides, he had already shown mercy. Xiaoxiao came on stage to compete with such obvious personal emotions, which he thought was a bit childish.

Of course, it is human nature to care about one's companions and to be hostile to those who hurt them. It is just human nature.

"No? You injured my companion."

Xiaoxiao put her hands on her hips and said unconvincedly.

"Haha, if you can do that, I have no objection."

Meteor chuckled with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

Bupo Douluo glanced at the two of them, silently raised his hand and waved it down, saying in a deep voice: "Individual elimination round, second match, the game begins."

As soon as Bupo Douluo's voice fell, Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate and kicked the ground with both feet. This kick contained a lot of strength, and with the help of the reaction force, her body shot into the air like an arrow.

During the ascent, her whole body was shining with light, and two yellow, two purple, and one black, a total of five soul rings appeared one after another.

At the same time, a strange fluctuation appeared in the void, and a giant three-legged tripod as black as ink slowly emerged.

This giant tripod has an ancient shape and is engraved with mysterious runes all over it, as if it carries endless time and power. As soon as it appears, it brings with it a heavy and oppressive aura.

Xiaoxiao turned lightly in the air, stretched out her hands and firmly grasped the San Sheng Soul-Suppressing Cauldron that jumped out of the void.

"The first soul skill, the shock of the cauldron."

She held the ears of the San Sheng Soul-Suppressing Cauldron tightly with both hands, and used the power of her own rotation to spin rapidly in the air.

The moment the rotation ended, Xiaoxiao used all her strength to throw the San Sheng Soul-Calming Cauldron towards the direction of the meteor.

The pitch-black cauldron was like a black meteor, cutting through the sky and rushing towards it.

As the San Sheng Soul-Suppressing Cauldron was flying, its body vibrated slightly. Each vibration caused fluctuations in the surrounding air, emitting a terrifying whistling sound.

The air seemed to be squeezed tightly by an invisible giant hand, making a "crunching" sound of protest, as if it would be torn apart by this powerful force at any time.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows slightly, and a gleam of eagerness flashed in his eyes. Almost at the same time, a silver light flashed on his right arm, and a cool-looking silver-white mecha was already on his right arm.

The mecha had smooth lines, emitting the unique cold luster of metal. Then, a blazing flame quickly condensed on his fist, and the flame danced, emitting a scorching high temperature.

Meteor didn't hesitate at all. He let out a low roar and suddenly threw a punch straight towards the flying black cauldron.

In an instant, the fist collided heavily with the cauldron.

"boom--"

Like a thunder exploding in the sky, this loud noise instantly spread throughout the entire stadium.

The terrifying sound waves spread out in all directions like a surging tide, and wherever they went, the air seemed to be shattered.

The audience sitting on the stage felt their scalps tingling and their ears buzzing from the huge noise. Many people even covered their ears subconsciously.

The huge impact force acted on Meteor, his body sank suddenly, and his feet were like sinking into a quagmire, deeply embedded in the ground beneath his feet.

The originally flat ground suddenly broke and sank, and countless pieces of broken stones were shaken high into the air, splashing everywhere and raising a cloud of dust.

"go back!"

After successfully blocking the attack from the cauldron, Meteor shouted coldly, and his leg muscles tensed instantly. He gathered all his strength and kicked out fiercely.

The kick landed heavily on the pitch-black cauldron with a whistling sound. Accompanied by a sharp and piercing metallic explosion, the cauldron flew back at an even faster speed as if it had been hit by a cannonball.

At this moment, the big cauldron, with its terrifying explosion and impact force, was like an out-of-control meteor, smashing towards Xiaoxiao in mid-air.

Outside the arena, Huo Yuhao, with his excellent eyesight, saw it all clearly. He could clearly see that Xiaoxiao's once majestic and heavy Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron now had two dents.

One was the clear fist mark left by Meteor's punch just now. The fist mark was deeply embedded in the body of the cauldron, as if telling of the terrifying power of that punch.

The other place was the footprint left by the previous kick. The footprint was clearly outlined and deeply embedded in the body of the tripod.

Seeing the pitch-black San Sheng Soul-Suppressing Cauldron rushing towards him like a cannonball with terrifying power, Xiaoxiao's face instantly became solemn.

At this critical moment, she quickly raised her left hand, a flash of emerald green light appeared, and a jade flute carved with a phoenix pattern appeared in her hand.

This jade flute is warm and translucent, emitting a soft luster. It is her second martial soul - the Nine Phoenix Coming Flute.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaoxiao opened her cherry lips and played the jade flute in her hand.

The melodious sound of the flute suddenly rang out. At first, the sound was crisp and pleasant, like a clear spring flowing in the mountains, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into invisible sound waves, spreading in all directions.

These sound waves seemed invisible, but they contained powerful force. In the blink of an eye, they enveloped the speeding San Sheng Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.

Under the influence of the sound waves, the originally unstoppable cauldron suddenly slowed down a bit, as if it was caught in an invisible resistance.

However, Xiaoxiao was not satisfied with this. She twisted her waist and turned her body flexibly. Using the force of the rotation, she kicked out suddenly.

This kick landed precisely on the San Sheng Soul-Suppressing Cauldron. With a muffled sound, the cauldron changed direction again, like a reignited cannonball, whistling towards the meteor.
