Boom!
A surge of blood-red light exploded across the square, sweeping outward like a tidal wave. Everyone watched as the Blood Demon Fang in Xue Ci's hands began to squirm and expand within the crimson radiance.
Hiss! Hiss!
The sound of the fangs tearing apart and rapidly reforming echoed through the square, sharp and unnerving. Those familiar with Xue Ci's reputation looked on with grave expressions, their wariness of this transformation evident.
"So it really is the Bloodlight Demon Fang." Shui Muqing bit her lip gently, murmuring as she gazed at the fangs, which were now writhing and swelling.
"Legend has it that the Bloodlight Demon Fang was created by an ancient powerhouse. This deadly technique not only enhances the might of the fangs but also renders them nearly unstoppable. Below the Dou Zun level, few can withstand its power…" Shui Cang, the elderly blue-robed man, spoke solemnly.
"This will certainly be a bitter battle for Mo Yu," he added gravely.
The other members of the Shui Clan nodded in unison, their faces equally tense. Their hopes for securing a spot on Ten Thousand Snake Island rested entirely on Mo Yu's victory in this duel.
"Bloodlight Demon Fang, so this is Xue Ci's inherited skill? I've finally witnessed it today," muttered Wu Mang from the Black Tail Clan, his eyes narrowing slightly as he observed the scene.
"Impressive indeed," Wu Jun, standing beside him, remarked with a hint of surprise in his gaze as he watched the crimson figure amidst the radiant bloodlight.
"The Blood Fang Clan deserves its reputation as one of the strongest clans of our Sea Clan. If Xue Ci fully unleashes this Bloodlight Demon Fang, I doubt anyone in the Black Tail Clan could withstand it, including myself," Wu Mang commented coldly. "It seems that boy won't even qualify to enter Ten Thousand Snake Island. I overestimated him."
He sneered, continuing, "And since he's crossed paths with Crown Prince Jiao, the Shui Clan may face trouble once this martial assembly concludes."
Wu Jun clasped his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face as his gaze remained fixed on the battlefield. "That depends on whether he can survive Xue Ci's assault first…"
Boom! The overwhelming bloodlight swirling around the battlefield suddenly erupted outward like a storm, accompanied by a deep, hoarse roar.
As the bloodlight dissipated, a massive pair of fangs, about ten meters long, materialized in the center of the square. The fangs were dark red, their surfaces layered with a chitinous crimson coating that gleamed ominously. Razor-sharp bone spines jutted out along their length, exuding a sinister aura.
Xue Ci, now transformed, looked like an ancient demon beast, radiating ferocity and a terrifying killing intent.
Mo Yu's expression turned serious as he stared at Xue Ci's monstrous form. "This Bloodlight Demon Fang is indeed a powerful trump card," he muttered to himself.
"I told you, your life is mine to claim!"
Xue Ci's eyes glowed crimson as he clenched his fists, feeling the overwhelming surge of power coursing through him. A bloodthirsty desire flared in his heart as he glared at Mo Yu, a cruel smile forming on his lips.
Whoosh!
Before Xue Ci's words faded, he launched himself forward with explosive force.
Seeing the sudden charge, Mo Yu's pupils contracted. Crossing his arms before him, he summoned a protective field of five-colored lightning.
Boom!
Xue Ci's enormous, fang-like fists smashed against Mo Yu's crossed arms, sending shockwaves rippling outward. The sheer force pulverized the ground beneath Mo Yu's feet, forming a crater.
Bang!
Mo Yu's body was sent flying backward by the blow. As he steadied himself with a swift palm strike that shattered the air behind him, he managed to disperse the residual force.
Glancing at his arms, Mo Yu noticed a sharp pain radiating from them, prompting his expression to tighten. "This Bloodlight Demon Fang is truly formidable," he thought.
"Oh? You managed to block my Demon Fang?" Xue Ci's crimson gaze reflected a trace of surprise. He had expected his attack to pierce through Mo Yu's arms, as it would have against most peak Dou Zong-level experts.
"But how many of these strikes can you withstand?" Xue Ci sneered. His movements exuded raw power, each motion threatening to shatter mountains.
Mo Yu, meanwhile, calmly rubbed his injured arm and exhaled slowly. Lifting his head, a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Your strength and penetration are indeed impressive... but..."
Before finishing his sentence, brilliant lightning erupted from Mo Yu's body, condensing into a majestic suit of armor. His voice resonated powerfully as he declared:
"But you're facing me!"
As the words fell, Mo Yu's aura surged dramatically, climbing rapidly until it reached the level of an Eight-Star Dou Zong.
"What kind of secret technique can instantly raise someone's strength by two stars?"
The crowd erupted in shock, their faces filled with disbelief as they stared at Mo Yu. Even Crown Prince Jiao, who had been disinterested until now, narrowed his eyes with a hint of unease.
"Big Sister, Brother Mo Yu actually had such a trump card," Shui Muxue exclaimed, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment.
"We've underestimated Mo Yu's abilities. His background is likely beyond what we can imagine," Shui Muqing murmured softly.
In the arena, Mo Yu clenched his fist, feeling the immense power coursing through his body. His earlier plan to defeat Xue Ci with his original strength of a Six-Star Dou Zong had fallen short, forcing him to reveal part of his hidden strength.
"But this level of power should suffice to defeat Xue Ci," Mo Yu thought. He chose not to summon his Thunder Wings, wary of revealing too many of his secrets.
As Mo Yu's aura stabilized at Eight-Star Dou Zong, Xue Ci's crimson eyes flickered with astonishment. Before he could act, Mo Yu struck first.
Bang! With the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear in hand, Mo Yu unleashed a surge of dazzling black lightning. A clear, resonant dragon's roar echoed across the square, captivating everyone's attention.
As the black light spread, an enormous figure emerged.
The crowd gasped collectively as they saw the massive hundred-meter-long black dragon hovering in the air.
"Dragon clan?!"
Shock rippled through the square as countless pairs of eyes widened. The overwhelming dragon might caused many to tremble involuntarily.
"No… it's not a dragon. It's the spirit of a weapon. An Eighth-Grade weapon spirit," Shui Cang muttered, his voice tinged with astonishment.
Shui Muqing also nodded slowly, her beautiful eyes fixed on the enormous black dragon coiled in midair. Its sinuous body exuded a majestic strength, with black lightning flickering across its gleaming dragon scales. The contours of its form were so flawless that it could only be described as perfection.
"Damn it! Why is the spirit of this eighth-grade weapon so powerful..."
Xue Ci's blood-red pupils stared at the massive creature suspended in the air. A hint of apprehension flashed in his heart as he sensed an intensely dangerous aura emanating from the Black Dragon Weapon Spirit. Under the gaze of the dragon's eyes, glowing with black lightning, the violent energy coursing through his body seemed faintly suppressed.
"Let's see whether your eighth-grade weapon spirit is stronger, or if my Bloodlight Demon Fang is superior!"
Xue Ci's gaze flickered before solidifying into a fierce determination. Moments later, a torrential surge of blood-red light erupted from his body. His form quaked violently, transforming into a radiant crimson streak that resembled a curved blade. At its tip rested the terrifying Blood Demon Fang, leaving a trail of dark spatial scars wherever it passed.
"Bloodlight Demon Slash!"
The dark red light streaked across the sky, tearing through space with a deep, rumbling growl as it hurtled directly toward Mo Yu.
Standing on the plaza, Mo Yu's gaze remained calm. With his strength surging to the level of an eight-star Dou Zong, he gripped the black spear tightly. Around him, the black dragon coiled, its tranquil dragon eyes observing the incoming blade beam that tore through the heavens, carrying an air of divine supremacy that looked down on all beings.
"Di-Class high-grade Dou Technique: Black Dragon Howling Sky!"
At the moment the spear thrust forward, the massive claw of the black dragon extended, and a boundless black radiance spread from it. Faintly, it seemed to carry an overwhelming, apocalyptic energy, along with a unique pressure that radiated outward.
Boom!
The Black Dragon Spear clashed with the dark red Blood Fang. Under countless watching eyes, the spear slammed into the crimson blade.
The moment of contact brought a brief stillness to the entire world.
Bang!
But this silence lasted only for an instant before shattering. All eyes widened as they witnessed the Black Dragon Spear crash down like a meteor. The crimson Blood Fang beneath it was forcefully smashed into the ground.
Rumble!
The entire plaza collapsed at that moment. The descending Black Dragon Spear seemed to carry an earth-shattering power capable of suppressing all things.
As the plaza crumbled, the Black Dragon Spear vanished swiftly, and the massive Black Dragon Weapon Spirit hovering in the sky shrank back into Mo Yu's Divine Might Black Thunder Spear.
The plaza fell into absolute silence. All eyes turned toward the slender figure in the sky before lowering their gaze to the ground.
In the ruins of the collapsed plaza, a blood-soaked figure struggled to rise but ultimately fell powerlessly to the rubble. The sound of an arm striking the broken stones sent shudders through the watching crowd.
The formidable Xue Ci, who had unleashed the Bloodlight Demon Fang, had been utterly defeated by a single strike from Mo Yu!
The previously noisy plaza grew eerily quiet. The shocked gazes directed at the ruins carried an undeniable sense of disbelief.
In the Shui Clan's seating area, Shui Muqing and the others stared blankly at the scene. Moments later, joy broke across their faces.
"What incredible power…" Shui Cang muttered, his expression serious.
He had clearly sensed the terrifying strength contained in Mo Yu's Black Dragon Spear. In the confrontation with Xue Ci, Mo Yu's technique had clearly gained an overwhelming advantage.
"So this is the power of an eighth-grade weapon. Even in the Central Plains, such weapons are exceedingly rare. I wonder where he came from…" Shui Muqing murmured softly.
Hearing this, a thoughtful look crossed Shui Cang's face. He glanced at Shui Muqing, his eyes carrying a deeper meaning as he said, "They say even heroes fall for beauty. If we want Mo Yu to continue protecting the Shui Clan, it will depend on how you and Mu Xue perform."
Shui Muqing froze at those words, her face turning crimson as if realizing something.
"Damn brat. He does have some skill." The Crown Prince Jiao narrowed his eyes as he gazed at the collapsed plaza, then at the slender figure hovering in the air. His gaze turned cold and menacing.
The disdain in his eyes vanished entirely after witnessing Mo Yu's astonishing strike. If he continued to underestimate Mo Yu after this display, he would only be a fool.
Beside him, Ao Guang frowned slightly. "Who is this kid? With such strength, it's impossible for him to be unknown in the Central Plains."
After some thought, Ao Guang found no answer. His tone deepened as he said, "Regardless of his background, since he dares to look down on our Two-Headed Flood Dragon Clan, he must be taught a lesson.
"From what I can tell, he likely agreed to support the Shui Clan just for a slot on the Ten Thousand Snake Island. So, Ao Jiao, you can deal with him on the island. If the situation permits, you can eliminate him quietly.
"Over the years, not every participant in the Ten Thousand Snake Island trial has made it out alive…"
Hearing this, the Crown Prince Jiao froze momentarily before his gaze locked onto Mo Yu. His face twisted into a sinister smile as he nodded darkly.
Though Mo Yu had displayed impressive strength by defeating Xue Ci, he still lacked the edge of someone like Ao Jiao, who was already half a step into the Dou Zun realm.
If Mo Yu were to die quietly on the Ten Thousand Snake Island, even if he had a powerful background, it would be difficult to find proof of wrongdoing.
Suspended mid-air, Mo Yu lowered his gaze to the faintly breathing Xue Ci in the ruins of the plaza, a smirk tugging at his lips.
With his strength improved, he could now reapply some of the Dou Techniques he had mastered in his previous life. Though he had not yet perfected them in this life, he could still unleash their power instantly.
The Black Dragon Howling Sky, combined with the Black Dragon Weapon Spirit, was a force so overwhelming that nothing could stand against it. However, its energy consumption was also enormous.
Fortunately, with his current strength, coupled with the amplification from his Thunder Armor, he had been able to strike Xue Ci down with a single blow.
As the battle concluded, Xuan Guang rose slowly, his gaze filled with astonishment as he looked at Mo Yu.
"The final slot for the Ten Thousand Snake Island belongs to the Shui Clan!"
