Chapter 64: Gu Rong Attacks
High in the sky, the battle between Sword Douluo and Poison Douluo continued.
But on the ground!
With Sword Douluo’s departure, the Seven Kill Domain dissipated, and the 40% suppression effect of the Blue Silver Domain fell upon Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong once again.
Not only that, under Lu Chen’s control, countless Blue Silver Vines shot out from all directions, like snakes and pythons, winding toward Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong.
As a Support Soul Master, Ning Fengzhi had no offensive or defensive capabilities, so he could only frown and hide behind Gu Rong:
"Uncle Bone, I’ll leave this to you!"
Gu Rong nodded upon hearing this. Withstanding the 40% suppression effect, he activated Martial Soul Possession. His stature suddenly shot up, his frame becoming much broader, but his skin and muscles did not grow along with it; he was purely a more exaggerated skeleton.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—nine spirit rings rose beneath his feet, and a heart-palpitating aura of darkness suddenly erupted from within him.
Facing the Blue Silver Vines shooting out from all directions, Gu Rong looked disdainful and snorted coldly:
"Some pathetic plants; watch me tear you to shreds!"
"Third Spirit Ability, Bone Dragon Deterrence!"
As his third spirit ring lit up, Gu Rong opened his mouth and let out a roar:
"Roar!"
In an instant, a tangible wave of sonic energy shot out from his throat.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sonic wave swept through the area, and those encroaching Blue Silver Vines exploded one after another under the immense pressure.
Titled Douluo are indeed terrifying!
Gu Rong was a Super Douluo with 95-level spirit power; even just a thousand-year third Spirit Ability displayed overwhelming power.
The Blue Silver Vines that Lu Chen catalyzed were essentially no different from paper.
However, for Lu Chen, catalyzing some Blue Silver Vines didn’t cost much spirit power at all.
He could just wear Gu Rong down and see who could hold out until the end.
With a thought, Lu Chen catalyzed more Blue Silver Vines through the Blue Silver Domain, surrounding Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong from all directions.
Thus, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong could see that just after destroying a large pile of Blue Silver Vines, in the blink of an eye, another large pile shot out.
Seeing this, Gu Rong put away the disdainful expression on his face; he already felt that something was not quite right.
He then used Bone Dragon Deterrence twice more. Sure enough, just as he destroyed a large pile of vines in front, more vines grew out behind him.
These vines were simply endless; just as he destroyed one batch, another would emerge.
If he were to use a ten-thousand-year Spirit Ability to deal with endless vines, it would really not be worth the cost.
But if this continued, even if he were a Titled Douluo, he would sooner or later exhaust his spirit power.
Gu Rong suddenly said in a deep voice:
"Fengzhi, get on my back. We’ll go into the forest and catch Lan Chen. To catch the bandits, one must first catch the ringleader. If we don’t catch that guy, these vines will never end."
Ning Fengzhi also understood the severity of the situation. Without a word, he jumped onto Gu Rong’s back and said:
"Uncle Bone, Lan Chen is just a Support Soul Master. Besides these vines being quite annoying, he has no other means."
"I won’t give you any buffs. Save the spirit power and use it all to support Uncle Sword. As long as he can defeat Dugu Bo, there won’t be any more trouble today."
Gu Rong did not object. Carrying Ning Fengzhi, he charged toward the forest, releasing his mental force to fully sense the location of Lu Chen and Dugu Yan.
Lu Chen’s aura had long since merged with the entire forest within the Blue Silver Domain.
However, Dugu Yan’s aura still faintly emanated.
Relying on this faint aura, Gu Rong not only found Dugu Yan but also followed the trail to find Lu Chen.
He grinned, his face ferocious:
"I’ve found you!"
Then, like a humanoid Spirit Beast, Gu Rong rampaged through the forest. Any plant that blocked his path was either smashed by his first Spirit Ability, Bone Dragon Thrust, or shattered by his third Spirit Ability, Bone Dragon Deterrence.
After Lu Chen perceived this scene, a dismissive smile curled at the corner of his mouth:
"Then come and try to see if you can catch me in this forest!"
"Yan Yan, let’s go!"
As he finished speaking, Lu Chen wrapped his arm around Dugu Yan’s waist and leaped toward the depths of the forest.
Dugu Yan, whose waist was being held, first tensed up, but then gradually relaxed. She then looked up at Lu Chen, and seeing that middle-aged face that aroused no desire in anyone, she couldn’t help but pout.
Then Dugu Yan closed her eyes. She fully unleashed her imagination, picturing herself being held in the arms of Lu Chen with his true appearance revealed.
With this imagination, a faint, imperceptible sweet smile curled at the corner of Dugu Yan’s mouth.
Being held by a handsome man versus being held by an ugly man!
The feeling was completely different!
Returning to Lu Chen, he held Dugu Yan’s waist, leaping toward the depths of the forest while catalyzing more Blue Silver Vines.
He manipulated these Blue Silver Vines to constantly delay Gu Rong’s forward speed. Facing these dense Blue Silver Vines, even if Gu Rong destroyed them quickly, it still took a certain amount of time.
Gu Rong’s forward speed was greatly delayed.
Several times, he had already seen the figures of Lu Chen and Dugu Yan, but after being blocked by the dense Blue Silver Vines, their figures would once again disappear from his sight.
Gu Rong was so angry he wanted to hit someone, but he could only vent his frustration on the Blue Silver Vines blocking his path.
Coupled with the 40% suppression effect of the Blue Silver Domain, Gu Rong was now like someone trapped in a quagmire; despite having all that strength, he simply couldn’t unleash it.
Ning Fengzhi, carried on Gu Rong’s back, had wisdom flashing in his eyes as he constantly pondered a way to break the deadlock.
In his view, Bone Douluo was not suitable for dealing with Lan Chen, because Lan Chen was slippery; Bone Douluo was strong in strength and defense, but simply could not catch the slippery Lan Chen.
To deal with Lan Chen, it still required Chen Xin to make a move.
But Chen Xin was held back by Dugu Bo.
Now, to break the deadlock, they could only help Chen Xin defeat Dugu Bo sooner.
Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi looked up at the sky.
He saw that in the sky, the battle between Chen Xin and Dugu Bo was no longer limited to probing; both had brought out their real skills.
Both had activated their Martial Soul Avatar, which meant their battle had entered a white-hot stage.
Chen Xin controlled a forty-meter-long giant sword, constantly chasing and slashing at a fifty-meter-long Jade Phosphorus Giant Python in the sky.
That Jade Phosphorus Giant Python was also thick-skinned; under the giant sword’s repeated attacks, it only left some faint marks on its body, and it hadn’t even sustained a single wound.
This was due to several factors!
First, Dugu Bo’s Jade Phosphor Serpent Spirit had evolved into the Jade Phosphorus Serpent Ancestor Spirit after eating the Earth Dragon Golden Melon.
And it had gained a second attribute, the Earth attribute, which greatly increased his defensive capabilities.
Second was Lu Chen’s group Blue Silver Blessing, which gave Dugu Bo a 200% boost to all attributes, including a 200% defense boost.
In the state of the Jade Phosphorus Giant Python, Dugu Bo’s defensive capability had reached the top tier; for Chen Xin to break his defense, it was not such a simple matter.
Ning Fengzhi thought to himself:
’It seems I can only use the Seven Treasures Avatar to strengthen the buff effect by 50% and reduce spirit power consumption by 50%, so Uncle Sword can defeat Dugu Bo sooner and change this situation.’
