Chapter 571 A Failed Probe
"What is the Holy Dragon Sect trying to do?"
Ning Fengzhi was about to call for several Soul Douluos to stop them when he was entangled by the Soul Masters from the Holy Dragon Sect, preventing him from providing timely support.
"Father-in-law, let them come."
Xuan Mo stepped out of the encirclement. "You and Rongrong deal with the other Soul Masters. As for the other two, I'll handle them. After all, it seems their goal isn't to win!"
Ning Fengzhi didn't object to Xuan Mo's decision. Instead, he looked up and met Bibi Dong's gaze.
"It seems Bibi Dong wants to use the Holy Dragon Sect to test your strength. To see if you pose a significant threat to their Spirit Hall in the future, or even now."
"I am truly grateful for her high regard."
Xuan Mo knew perfectly well that his performance in the Soul Hunting Operation, the Heavenly Dou Palace Incident, and even the battle against the Dragon Serpent Sect a few days ago had inevitably attracted Bibi Dong's attention.
"Xiao Mo, since she wants to see, let her see. Let Bibi Dong and those other sects witness the brilliance of the next generation of our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and our Heaven Dou Empire!"
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi's refined appearance belied his resolute tone, as if a sharp sword lay hidden within. "Otherwise, if we don't let them get what they want this time, I think they'll find another opportunity. Even if they want to attack you, our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School can protect you!"
"Father-in-law, you flatter me."
Xuan Mo patted Ning Rongrong's head, his gaze shifting downwards to the black scale hanging on her chest. "Right now, there shouldn't be anyone on the Douluo Continent who can take my life."
Having said that, his eyes instantly sharpened, and the ferocious power of the Taotie erupted.
"Bang!"
As cracks appeared on the ground beneath his feet, Xuan Mo charged towards the two elders of the Holy Dragon Sect.
"This kid's strength isn't bad, but isn't he too arrogant? He actually dares to fight both of us alone."
"Don't be careless! Attack with all your might."
Compared to the Second Elder, the First Elder of the Holy Dragon Sect naturally dared not underestimate anyone from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, especially this target specifically assigned by the Sect Master.
In an instant, two phantom images of white-armored earth dragons appeared behind them and then crashed fiercely towards Xuan Mo.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides officially collided.
Just when the two Holy Dragon Sect elders thought that Xuan Mo would be blasted back by them, they were surprised to find that Xuan Mo's muscles were bulging and his arms were covered with patterns. His powerful strength burst forth, and he managed to withstand the two of them. Moreover, when his fists clashed with the dragon claws, there was a layer of black substance covering them, and he was not injured in the slightest.
However, this wasn't what shocked them the most.
"Second Elder, do you feel our power..."
"It's weakened, isn't it?"
Before the Second Elder could reply, Xuan Mo spoke for him, adding, "The White-Armored Earth Dragon is merely a mere Earth Dragon; how could it possibly be without fear before Taotie, one of the Dragon Kings?!"
Before his words even finished, a black spirit ring lit up.
At the same time, an extremely dangerous feeling arose in the hearts of the two Holy Dragon Sect elders.
Not good!
This thought flashed through their minds like lightning. The two Holy Dragon Sect elders, being experienced in combat, immediately released Xuan Mo, activated an amplification-type spirit skill, and retreated rapidly.
"Boom!" A beam of light with annihilation attributes blasted out. Fortunately, the two Soul Douluos reacted quickly enough, so they weren't harmed; only some of their dragon scales were annihilated.
But Xuan Mo's missed attack didn't mean the end.
With his seemingly unaffected display of soul power, the arena floor instantly shifted, unleashing a barrage of "cliff-like swords" imbued with magma towards the two Soul Douluos, leaving them no foothold. Above them, lightning surged, and nine lightning dragons slashed down upon them.
For a moment, the two elders of the Holy Dragon Sect were suppressed.
"How can this kid be so troublesome!" After a full incense stick's time, the two Holy Dragon Sect elders grew increasingly frustrated and overwhelmed, finally activating their Martial Soul True Forms. Two enormous white-armored earth dragons hurtled towards Xuan Mo's small frame.
"Finally couldn't hold back, huh?"
The combined firepower had lasted a full incense stick's time. Even with a condensed soul core and Ning Rongrong's occasional assistance, Xuan Mo had inevitably suffered excessive soul power depletion.
Seeing the two enormous white-armored earth dragons before him, Xuan Mo unhesitatingly activated his Martial Soul True Form, and a gigantic Taotie appeared.
Upon appearing, it immediately attacked the weaker of the white-armored earth dragons.
"Roar!"
Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder of the Holy Dragon Sect condensed intense energy fluctuations in his ferocious dragon mouth, then unleashed a compressed, milky-white dragon breath towards Xuan Mo.
"Buzz!"
However, facing this attack, the entire Taotie gradually transformed into a golden form. Under the golden light, Xuan Mo's defense was indestructible.
The next moment, the milky-white dragon breath slammed into the Taotie's mouth, and with a loud bang, he was engulfed by the white light.
But when the white light dissipated, it was discovered that Xuan Mo was completely unharmed. Instead, a black hole appeared in that huge mouth, swallowing the white-armored earth dragon that the Second Elder had transformed into.
"You were too impatient."
As Xuan Mo's voice rang out, he began to clash with the white-armored earth dragon that the Grand Elder had transformed into.
But it was clear to everyone that the Grand Elder of the Holy Dragon Sect would soon be unable to withstand the onslaught of the Taotie transformed by Xuan Mo.
"...Useless."
On the high platform, Bibi Dong's brows furrowed at first, then relaxed.
But then, "What brings you here?"
Bibi Dong turned her head, meeting Qian Renxue's gaze.
"Those two pieces of trash think they can measure his strength?"
Qian Renxue met Bibi Dong's gaze, her eyes filled with disdain. "Just two old guys with half their bodies in the ground, their soul power not even at level eighty-five. If it were me, I could take them down. Do you think they're worthy?"
With that, she turned and left without looking back, leaving only the words, "Only I, Qian Renxue, am worthy to be his opponent! The other way around is the same."
Bibi Dong watched Qian Renxue's departing figure, her expression constantly shifting between light and dark, the grip on her scepter tightening, even causing the veins to bulge on her delicate hands.
The Spirit Hall members watching this scene were on edge, fearing Bibi Dong's anger.
"Bang!"
Just then, a loud noise interrupted Bibi Dong's thoughts. Following the gaze, they saw that the white-armored earth dragon had already been grabbed by the Taotie, which was actually Xuanmo, and was being violently thrown over his shoulder.
Seeing this, Bibi Dong regained her composure.
"Go tell Tuoba Xi, this is the end..."
