Boom—
Terrifying energy made the entire Ice Sea seem to boil in this instant. The soul guide warship originally grounded on the iceberg was thrown up by the waves in this series of explosions, capsizing in an instant.
Seawater struck the heavens, waves surging down!
Amidst the violent waves, a golden light suddenly flashed. The Sea Princess rose with the waves, breaking through wind and thunder like a whirlwind, dashing forward with extreme speed. The war halberd in her hand flickered with cold light, carrying fierce and unparalleled momentum, directly targeting the Demon Empress's vital points.
Although she was a mermaid, her close combat abilities were not lacking in the slightest.
The Demon Empress, seeing this, immediately became wary.
The moment she swept her hand horizontally, a war halberd also entered her hand. Only compared to the Sea Princess's weapon, the Demon Empress's weapon was a Class 9 close combat soul tool, manufactured by Ye Xishui.
She held it horizontally with both hands, steadily blocking the Sea Princess's attack before her. Simultaneously, she locked it in the opposite direction, completely pinning it.
And behind the Sea Princess, enormous cyan wind blades several meters long and over a meter wide sliced toward her.
Amidst ear-piercing explosive sounds, air cracked with gaps. For a moment, it gave the Sea Princess the illusion that the air around her body had already shattered, and she would be torn apart along with it.
Thus, a sea tornado immediately rose to connect with the heavens.
Between clangs, all was perilous.
"Sea Princess, leave your life here today!"
The bone dragon roared, ocean waves flying. It appeared two great powerhouses were attacking, but in reality, three powerful combat forces had surrounded the Sea Princess.
...
Deep in the Ice Sea, within the mermaid palace.
"How is the battle?"
"At a disadvantage." With Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's help, Huo Yuhao took in the battle situation on the sea surface in a straight line.
"Which side?" Chen Junting asked.
"It's the Sea Princess's side." Huo Yuhao's expression was grave as he transmitted the sea surface's vision to Chen Junting's group.
They saw that under the combined assault of the Demon Empress, Zhongli Wu, and the Bone Dragon King, the Sea Princess seemed to have already fallen into a disadvantageous position. Even the sea soul beast army was suffering considerable casualties under the attacks of the evil soul masters, numerous vengeful spirits, and soul tools. Only the mermaid legion was faring better, using their martial soul combination technique to directly withstand the Holy Spirit Cult group's offensive, even inflicting considerable losses on the evil soul masters.
"What should we do?" Huo Yuhao's brows furrowed as he cast an inquiring gaze toward Brother Junting and Sister Tian.
"Let this old man go."
Zhi Yong gently stroked his beard, his gaze serious.
However, although he said this, he also lacked confidence in his heart. After all, he was still a line away from level 98. If he really fought, he wouldn't be a match for the Holy Spirit Cult's Sect Leader Zhongli Wu.
But just at this moment, Chen Junting unusually calmly said, "It's fine for Second Grandpa to make a move, but your opponents aren't Zhongli Wu and the others—rather, it's the evil soul masters attacking the sea soul beast army."
Everyone hearing this cast puzzled gazes.
Ning Tian even asked, "Then what about the Sea Princess?"
"Naturally, find other helpers."
Having spoken, Chen Junting's mind moved. They saw a purple stream of light shoot out from his sea of consciousness, transforming into a dragon shadow.
"Tyrant, I'll trouble you."
Clearly, this dragon shadow was the spirit soul "Tyrant."
"Hahaha—, leave it to this Lord!"
A glint of excitement flashed in Tyrant's eyes, "Perfect, this Lord also hasn't used his own body to battle for a long time!"
As his voice fell, a gray hexagram appeared.
In the next second, the Undead Demiplane's gate opened wide, and an enormous bone dragon not inferior to Zhongli Wu's Bone Dragon King thrust out from within.
In an instant, a tyrannical aura swept through the palace!
Immediately, Tyrant's spirit soul entered it. The originally jade-green soul fire in the eye sockets vanished, replaced by blazing purple-black flames filled with destructive aura.
"Roar—, evil soul masters, this Lord has come!"
A furious roar erupted as Tyrant charged out of the mermaid palace without looking back, even forgetting they were still in the deep sea.
His speed was so fast that people wanting to dissuade him had no time.
The result was the next moment, "This... gurgle gurgle... can't..."
"Sigh."
Chen Junting shook his head, one hand covering his face.
A reckless fool! A reckless fool!
Truly unbearable to watch.
Thus he turned around, waving his hand toward Gu Tianchen, his tone carrying some helplessness, "Lao Gu, I'll trouble you to send him on his way."
Gu Tianchen slightly nodded. With a grasp of his large hand, accompanied by spatial fluctuations, the "gurgle" sounds outside the palace vanished.
Also at this moment, Zhi Yong said, "Send me as well."
"Yes."
The Void Gate opened, allowing Zhi Yong to step inside with one stride.
...
On the sea surface, the great battle continued.
As the flames of war spread, they dyed the azure into blood-red. Countless soul beast vengeful spirits flew through the air, creating a complete gloomy atmosphere.
Mixed with numerous soul guide beams covering down, the sea soul beast army suffered heavy casualties, numerous soul rings flashing on the sea surface.
Suddenly, a jade-green seemed to pierce through the void, flashing and vanishing. The moment the jade-green landed, a quasi-Titled Douluo who had just reached level 90 had his defense broken and his life taken.
This sudden misfortune instantly alerted the Holy Spirit Cult group. But before they could find the person, a figure quietly appeared behind them. Sky Azure Vines sliced through the air, once again killing several evil soul masters at the Soul Douluo level.
"Sky Azure Douluo!"
Seeing the newcomer, one person among the evil soul masters was greatly shocked!
Zhi Yong's piercing gaze instantly locked onto him. This fellow who spoke out was precisely the highest cultivation evil soul master among those dealing with the sea soul beast army, but also only at Level 91.
Thus, Sky Azure Vine broke through the air and attacked, making this evil soul master flee in terror, only able to respond hastily with the advantage of his soul tools.
On the other side, facing the siege of Zhongli Wu, the Bone Dragon King, and the Demon Empress, the Sea Princess wielded her war halberd with one hand while controlling the great sea with the other to meet the enemy. But ultimately, two fists are hard-pressed against four hands, and she was continuously suppressed.
But just as the Bone Dragon King slashed out a wind blade, cutting toward the Sea Princess's most vulnerable waist, intending to cleave her in two.
At this critical moment, Boom— a purple light pillar broke through the air, directly causing the cyan wind blade to shatter and dissipate.
This suddenly appearing attack saved the Sea Princess, instantly attracting Zhongli Wu and the Demon Empress's attention. On a massive floating iceberg, an enormous bone dragon stood tall there.
Almost subconsciously, the Demon Empress turned her gaze toward Zhongli Wu.
The meaning in her eyes was self-evident.
Zhongli Wu, seeing this, shook his head with an ugly expression.
This appeared to be an evil soul master's method, but he could guarantee that the Holy Spirit Cult absolutely had no one with the means to control this bone dragon.
Because in terms of imposing manner, this bone dragon had already reached the Limit Douluo level, even surpassing his mother to a certain degree.
And in terms of position...
Roar—
The Tyrannical Bone Dragon let out a roar. In the next second, the purple flames in its eye sockets blazed fiercely. The originally empty spinal bones were instantly ignited, and a pair of ferocious energy dragon wings appeared on its back. With a fierce flap, it rose to the heavens!
Its target was shockingly Zhongli Wu and the Bone Dragon King.
Clearly, this bone dragon was an enemy, not a friend.
Instantly, Zhongli Wu's expression turned ugly.
Facing the Tyrannical Bone Dragon's attack, Zhongli Wu immediately recalled the Bone Dragon King. The two joined forces, blocking Tyrant's attack. This caused the Sea Princess's pressure to suddenly decrease—she only needed to face the Demon Empress.
Thus she swept out with her halberd, and layers upon layers of ocean waves emerged.
Continuous and unending, containing endless sharpness.
The Demon Empress's war halberd danced, as if endless purple-black lightning surrounded her body blooming, her majestic momentum like an abyssal great sea pressing down until the air twisted and blurred.
"Die!"
