Chapter 442: Battle of the Dou Saints

Xiao Ze concentrated and suddenly raised an eyebrow. That chilling aura was quite familiar—it was someone from the Soul Hall. The other aura, a mix of holiness and a hint of evil, belonged to the Holy Spirit Saint.

"The Soul Hall is causing trouble for the Holy Spirit Saint?" Realizing this, Xiao Ze didn't hesitate. He immediately informed Xiao Yi Xian, Medusa, and the others. "The Holy Spirit Saint, who once helped me, seems to be facing a Saint from the Soul Hall. You stay here while I go and see if I can help."

After speaking, Xiao Ze formed a Thunder Avatar and infused it with a root of the Origin Tree. With Xiao Ze's increased strength, the Thunder Avatar's power had also surged and could now stall even a Dou Saint.

"Please be careful, Young Master Xiao Ze. We will wait here," Qing Lin said understandingly, aware that her current strength was insufficient for a Dou Saint-level battle. She wisely decided not to accompany Xiao Ze. Xiao Yi Xian and Medusa also expressed their concern and watched as Xiao Ze's figure vanished from sight.

"Ah, the gap between us has widened completely. We don't even qualify to watch the battle," Xiao Yi Xian sighed. Xiao Ze had directly skipped the half-saint stage and become a true Dou Saint. While they were happy for him, the growing distance between their strengths left them a bit disheartened.

"Maybe we can visit the Beast Region again. Now that Xiao Ze's strength is enough, perhaps we can finally uncover the secrets of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python's ancestral land," Medusa suggested with some anticipation.

The three women fell silent, staring in the direction Xiao Ze had gone, worry evident in their eyes. Although Xiao Ze had just become a Dou Saint, they were unsure of the strength of the Soul Hall's Dou Saint, making them concerned for his safety.

...

At the Netherworld Sea, black chains clanged loudly, carving thousand-zhang ravines across the sea's surface. These chains interconnected, forming a large formation that seemed to seal the heavens and earth.

The Grand Heaven Master looked skeletal, his skin hanging loosely over bones, with no flesh visible. His eyes were sunken, and deep within his eye sockets, two ghostly flames flickered, creating an eerie appearance. Though confident in his ability to capture the Holy Spirit Saint, he chose to battle her outside her territory, dragging her out of the Netherworld Sea to fight on the surface. The endless ghostly energy in the sea was troublesome even for him.

The Grand Heaven Master's black robes billowed as vast amounts of Dou Qi transformed into white shadows. Hidden by the black chains, these shadows became sharp white bones that shot towards the Holy Spirit Saint.

The Holy Spirit Saint clasped her hands together, radiating infinite holy light. The incoming white bones melted like ice under the scorching sun, reduced to white bone ashes by the holy light. Despite deflecting the attack, the Holy Spirit Saint's expression grew more solemn. Her hand seals changed, combining her radiant holy light with the dark power of the Netherworld. She merged these two opposing forces in her palms. If not for her unique ability, such an attempt would have led to an immediate explosion.

The Grand Heaven Master's next move justified her caution. The bone ashes coalesced in his skeletal hand, interweaving with ghostly black mist to form a black-and-white bone blade.

"Shattered Void Triple Bone Blade!" He slashed three times at lightning speed, each strike fracturing the void, merging into a single deadly blade aimed at the Holy Spirit Saint. She completed her technique just in time, forming a black-gold sphere of energy to meet the incoming blade.

Boom!

The collision resulted in a massive explosion, evaporating thousands of tons of seawater and creating a thousand-zhang crater in the Netherworld Sea. The immense energy rippled outward, straining the black chain formation that contained the explosion.

The Holy Spirit Saint, having taken the brunt of the impact, turned slightly pale, while the Grand Heaven Master remained unscathed within his chain formation. Despite their comparable strength, his deep reserves of powerful techniques and skills gave him the upper hand.

"Cackling coldly, the Grand Heaven Master said, "Holy Spirit Saint, do not be so foolish. Join the Soul Hall, and you will gain access to all the celestial techniques and protections of the Hall's name."

The Holy Spirit Saint's unexpected smile puzzled the Grand Heaven Master. "No interest. My answer won't change. Besides, do you really think you can take me down?"

Her words and demeanor suggested she sensed something unexpected, making the Grand Heaven Master wary.

Realizing she wouldn't join, his expression darkened. "I initially planned to spare you, but now you must die!"

A white bone blade materialized in his hand, filled with countless wailing souls. "If you won't join, you'll be buried here, ensuring you don't become a hindrance to the Soul Hall."

"Heh, the Soul Hall remains as domineering as ever," a voice echoed as another presence made itself known.
