Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Chapter 263 Rouge Annihilation Sword vs. Cliff Sword
Nan Qiuqiu was quietly floating in the air, with her eyes lowered, staring intently at the arena shrouded in thick smoke and dust.

A faint pink light flashed quickly in the depths of her eyes. She was not naive enough to think that she could easily defeat the powerful Liuying with just that round of attacks.

Nan Qiuqiu was fully focused, pushing her soul power perception to the extreme, carefully capturing every change in the soul power fluctuations on the ring.

The air around them seemed to freeze. Suddenly, the pink light in Nan Qiuqiu's eyes suddenly surged, like a burning flame. She opened her lips slightly and said softly, "It wasn't that easy after all. I found you."

"Fifth soul skill, Rouge Annihilation Sword."

Nan Qiuqiu raised her hands above her head. At this moment, the fifth soul ring on her body shone with a deep black light. Then, a majestic pink light shot up into the sky with her as the center, forming an extremely thick pillar of light that pierced the sky.

The pink beam of light illuminated the entire stadium like a dream, as if you were in a pink fairy tale world.

However, this beautiful appearance hides endless murderous intent.

I saw that the pink beam of light quickly began to compress and condense, the light became more dazzling, and the energy became more restrained.

Finally, in the astonished eyes of everyone, the beam of light turned into an incomparably huge pink lightsaber.

The blade of this lightsaber is transparent, as if it is made of the most perfect pink crystal. The power of destruction flows on the sword, and the power waves that annihilate everything spread out in all directions like ripples.

The force was so strong that it was suffocating, as if even the space was wailing in pain under the pressure of this force, and the air was squeezed to make a "sizzling" sound.

The audience in the stadium all looked up blankly at this moment, gazing at the beautiful Nan Qiuqiu in mid-air and the lightsaber in her hand that pierced the sky and the earth.

Their eyes were filled with shock, their mouths slightly open, as if they were under a spell and unable to come back to their senses for a long time.

The entire arena was silent, with only the light emitted by the lightsaber flashing in everyone's eyes.

"Big sister, come on!"

"Big sister, so handsome."

The disciples of Dilongmen jumped up excitedly, and Nan Shuishui also looked relieved, as their little witch had finally grown up.

"Liuying, take my sword."

Nan Qiuqiu looked down from above and called out in the direction of the soul power fluctuations she sensed below. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, yet it carried an unprecedented sense of confidence.

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly swung the huge pink lightsaber in her hand. The lightsaber cut through the sky, bringing up a brilliant pink light and shadow, and slashed towards Liuying's position.

"Bam—"

With a loud bang, a stream of blazing white flames swept away the thick smoke and dust that filled the ring like a surging tide.

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, revealing Firefly, who had transformed into the Molten Knight. At this moment, Firefly was surrounded by blazing flames, like the incarnation of destruction, emitting a powerful and hot aura.

She looked up at Nan Qiuqiu who was slashing down with a lightsaber in hand, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up, revealing a happy and satisfied smile. There was no fear in that smile, but it was full of anticipation and enjoyment.

"Qiuqiu, then you should also take my sword."

Liuying spoke softly, and although her voice was not loud, Nan Qiuqiu could still hear it.

After saying that, she raised her right foot and pushed down hard.

The blood-red hundred thousand year soul ring flashed with a dazzling red light, and the extremely solid ground of the arena began to boil instantly. The solid ground quickly melted under the high temperature and turned into boiling magma.

The magma rolled and surged as if it had life, and then, under the control of Liuying's soul power, a huge lava sword rose from the boiling magma.

This giant lava sword is tens of meters tall. The sword body is made of hot magma, with red flames flowing on the surface, emitting terrifying high temperature.

The giant lava sword rushed straight into the sky with terrifying power that could pierce the sky, as if it was going to tear the sky apart.

"Fifth soul skill, Cliff Sword!" Liuying shouted softly.

The giant lava sword rushed towards Nan Qiuqiu in the sky with the momentum of destroying the world. Wherever it passed, the air was burned by the high temperature and made a crackling sound. Twisted heat waves kept surging.

In an instant, the pink lightsaber and the lava giant sword collided.

Two completely different but equally powerful forces collided wildly, and the energy storm that erupted raged.

The strong light made it impossible for everyone to open their eyes, the huge roar made people's eardrums hurt, and even the protective barrier around the stadium trembled violently, as if it would break at any time.

The collision of energy produced visible shock waves that spread out in all directions like ripples.

Nan Qiuqiu clenched her teeth, her delicate face flushed slightly from the exertion. Beads of sweat trickled down her cheeks, only to be evaporated by the scorching air currents. She strained with all her might to maintain the Rouge Annihilation Sword in her hand. At that moment, her entire mind was focused on this lightsaber.

The soul power in the body was like a raging flood after the floodgates were opened, rushing madly towards the pink lightsaber in his hand regardless of everything.

However, the giant lava sword rising into the sky from the opposite side was extremely powerful and terrifying.

The rolling heat wave seemed to come from the depths of the earth, blowing towards them with a temperature high enough to burn everything. Wherever it passed, the air was ignited, making a whooshing sound.

The impact force carried by the giant lava sword was like the force of a natural disaster during a volcanic eruption, pressing towards Nan Qiuqiu in an unstoppable manner.

In the face of this force that was like the wrath of nature, Nan Qiuqiu was as small as a drop in the ocean.

The pink lightsaber, which originally emitted a magnificent light, endured unimaginable pressure the moment it collided head-on with the giant lava sword.

In just a moment, the lightsaber could no longer bear the weight, and dense cracks began to appear on the sword body, like a broken spider web.

As time went on, these cracks spread and expanded rapidly, and the extension of each crack was accompanied by the flickering and dimming of the pink light.

Soon, pieces of pink fragments peeled off the sword, and in the terrifying high temperature, they instantly turned into wisps of green smoke and disappeared without a trace.

"Crack!"

This subtle yet extremely clear crisp sound suddenly rang out above the competition field. The pink lightsaber that carried Nan Qiuqiu's full hopes and tremendous soul power finally couldn't bear the weight under the catastrophic power of the lava giant sword and began to break inch by inch.

The sword body, which originally emitted a dreamy and gorgeous light, now looked like an exquisite but fragile piece of porcelain. Under the impact of powerful external force, cracks spread rapidly like spider silk.

Without the resistance of the pink lightsaber, the giant lava sword was like a ferocious beast that had broken free from its restraints, rushing towards Nan Qiuqiu unhindered with the terrifying explosive power of a volcanic eruption.

Nan Qiuqiu felt dizzy and her body softened uncontrollably. The collision of soul skills just now had already exhausted all the soul power in her body, like a dry riverbed.

Her soul power was completely consumed, and the state of martial soul possession was also lifted. Her body shrank a few inches in an instant, and she fell straight from the sky like a kite with a broken string.

Seeing that he was about to be hit by the giant lava sword, Bupo Douluo leaned forward slightly and was ready to rescue him, but the giant lava sword with the power to destroy the world suddenly stopped in mid-air without any warning.

The blazing flames on the giant sword seemed to be extinguished in an instant by an invisible hand, leaving only wisps of green smoke rising.

Immediately afterwards, the entire giant sword seemed to have lost all its energy support and began to rapidly disintegrate, turning into a handful of fine black ash. Blown by the breeze, it slowly floated towards the distant sky, as if it had never appeared.

Almost at the same time, Liuying's figure had already arrived in the air, and stopped steadily on Nan Qiuqiu's falling trajectory. With an elegant princess hug posture, she gently embraced Nan Qiuqiu in her arms.

Liuying looked at Nan Qiuqiu in her arms with concern. She saw that her face was as pale as paper, without any blood, and her lips were slightly pale, which was a sign of extreme weakness after her soul power was exhausted.

Liuying asked softly, "Are you okay?"

Nan Qiuqiu raised her head slightly, forced a smile, and said weakly, "It's okay. I'm still far from perfect."

Her eyes revealed a deep sense of disappointment. She had been looking forward to having a hearty battle with Liuying to prove her strength, but she had not expected that the strongest attack spirit skill she had used with all her strength could only last for a few seconds in front of Liuying before being easily defeated. This made her feel very frustrated.

Liuying shook her head slightly and said gently, "That's pretty good. After all, you forced out my hundred thousand year soul skill. No one else has your ability."

In fact, what Liuying said was not entirely comforting. Nan Qiuqiu's strength was indeed far beyond that of an ordinary Soul Emperor due to the destructive power that evolved from her unique annihilation power.

This powerful strength allows her to fight even against a Soul Sage-level warrior.

Hearing Liuying's words, Nan Qiuqiu's originally dim eyes instantly lit up, and a sly smile appeared on her face, "Hehe, really?"

As she spoke, she unconsciously straightened her chest. The disappointment on her face just now disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a smiling and complacent look, which instantly "swelled up" again.

Liuying shook her head in amusement, fell from mid-air, and handed Nan Qiuqiu to Nan Shuishui who was waiting below the ring.

"Well done, at least we didn't bring shame to the Earth Dragon Gate."

Taking Nan Qiuqiu and looking at her pale face, Nan Shuishui felt a little distressed, but still said with a straight face.

"Big sister, you were so handsome just now."

"Big sister, that sword was really powerful. What a pity."

The disciples of the Earth Dragon Sect all came forward and surrounded Nan Qiuqiu. It can be seen that although Nan Qiuqiu is a little witch in normal times, she is still very popular.

"Hehe, of course. Don't you see who I am?"
