The meteor hammer in Lan Luoluo's hand was unexpectedly a melee soul tool specially forged for her by Elder Kong. Although it ranked as a Level 6 soul tool, it could exert power comparable to a Level 7 soul tool.
Xu Sanshi strode forward to meet her. As a Tang Sect disciple, he naturally mastered the major Tang Sect techniques, among which Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon and Hundred Hidden Weapons Solutions were the ones he was most proficient in.
Therefore, throwing weapons like meteor hammers were completely second-rate weapons in the eyes of Tang Sect disciples. Facing the technique of Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, Xu Sanshi was even confident he could make the opponent's attack bounce back onto herself.
Most importantly, seeing this little girl looking bitter and hateful, it seemed completely like a manifestation of immaturity, giving Xu Sanshi a feeling of reckless point-giving.
Lan Luoluo quickly swept across half the field. The meteor hammer wielded in her hand whistled with a vicious wind that made one's scalp tingle.
Facing Lan Luoluo's violent offensive, he used Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon almost without hesitation. Mysterious Heaven Skill activated, trying to clamp the flying meteor hammer out of thin air.
Seeing this scene, Lan Luoluo seemed to have anticipated it. Her long blue hair wrapped around the chain of the meteor hammer and quickly wrapped the hammer head. The fourth soul ring also lit up immediately.
Fourth Soul Skill: Thousand Jun Moment!
This soul skill was not used to describe a critical situation, but purely literal meaning—applying the force of a thousand jun to every strand of hair in an instant.
This soul ring was taken from the Thousand Jun Ant. When the Straw Hat Brigade traveled around the continent, they luckily encountered this kind of soul beast. Although the cultivation was not as high as the Thousand Jun Ant Emperor encountered by Sea God Tang San, it was enough for Lan Luoluo!
The so-called Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon was exactly using Mysterious Heaven Skill to guide soul power, meridians naturally rotating, finally gathering into a vortex in the palm, generating suction force, achieving the effect of four taels moving a thousand catties.
This method of using the opponent's force against them might work against a certain degree of weight, but it wouldn't work in front of absolute weight.
As the saying goes, you can move a thousand catties, but how do you face ten thousand or even a hundred thousand catties?
So Xu Sanshi's Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon was destined to fail.
Feeling the sudden increase in weight of the attacking meteor hammer, a look of surprise appeared on Xu Sanshi's face. But he was a defense-type Soul Douluo. Facing the impact of heavy objects, his martial soul could not only defend but also unload force to the greatest extent.
Xu Sanshi's third soul ring lit up. The Xuanwu Shield lay horizontally in front of him. The flying meteor hammer smashed onto the black energy flowing on the surface of the shield.
Bang!
Xu Sanshi's body only retreated a few steps. After all, he was a Soul Douluo powerhouse, not yet embarrassed by a Soul Sage's fourth soul skill.
Failing one hit, Lan Luoluo pursued the victory, continuing to wield the meteor hammer which had restored its original weight to chase after him.
"Good come!" Xu Sanshi's figure, awakened with the help of Sea God's Light, appeared very tall and burly in front of Lan Luoluo. His short hair faintly emitted green light. Muscles bulged. Standing there, he was like an insurmountable peak.
He looked up to the sky and roared. The Xuanwu Shell Shield in his hand shone with green light. The light fed back to himself, making Xu Sanshi's entire body expand a bit more. His upper clothes were almost burst by solid muscles. Strong dark green light burst outward. The air on the competition stage seemed to become viscous.
The boost of his third soul skill, Power of Xuanwu, almost doubled his own strength in a short time, and even affected a large surrounding area.
The viscous feeling on the field like being in water waves was because the Power of Xuanwu instantly condensed massive water elements.
Lan Luoluo's movements were inevitably affected. The movements of wielding the meteor hammer became a bit sluggish.
Clang!
The originally heavy meteor hammer was easily blocked by Xu Sanshi's single-handed Xuanwu Shield.
"Boom—"
However, another violent roar sounded. Xu Sanshi retreated seven or eight steps consecutively this time. Even the shield in his hand was shaken up.
What happened?
Xu Sanshi couldn't help looking at the meteor hammer in Lan Luoluo's hand. This special weapon seemed to have a characteristic of repelling enemies. Just now he was caught off guard by Lan Luoluo's trick.
In short, this weapon is strange! Xu Sanshi instantly became vigilant. With his strength, if he was in his peak state, he wouldn't fear the opponent's means, but now...
Lan Luoluo began her stormy offensive.
At this time, some people could already see that Xu Sanshi began to retreat, but not completely retreating at a disadvantage.
Every step he retreated was almost at the moment when the impact force released by the opponent was strongest. Xu Sanshi had reached the realm of perfection in controlling defense against the opponent's strong attack power.
Moreover, while retreating, the shield in his hand also had slight changes constantly. Every shield shaken away was unloading the opponent's attack as much as possible.
Lan Luoluo, who was in it, felt it most clearly. With her power control honed in the Dragon Realm, she couldn't stop Xu Sanshi from unloading her power. It felt like the opponent in front of her was like a slippery old turtle. Letting wind and waves hit, wind blow and rain beat, he could still evade unhurriedly in it.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom..."
Amidst a series of roars and shattering sounds, Xu Sanshi kept retreating. Lan Luoluo's offensive was like a surging river, while he was floating up and down.
The second and third soul rings on Xu Sanshi's body shone simultaneously. The Xuanwu Shield Formation was used by him to achieve overlapping defense effects, which was extremely difficult. Especially every shield had to be controlled and resisted. The four words "Eternal Defense" seemed to live up to their name on him many years in advance.
"Boom—" With a loud bang, Xu Sanshi flew backward together with his shield. This time, he retreated fully twenty meters before landing on the ground. He retreated a series of steps again, dissolving the impact force acting on him as much as possible.
Similarly, Lan Luoluo launching a crazy offensive against him consumed even more. Although it currently seemed she had the upper hand, her breathing inevitably became rapid.
"Satisfying." Xu Sanshi laughed loudly. Unknown when a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes became sharper.
Xu Sanshi is injured?
Seeing this scene, the audience instantly exclaimed. It seemed that this little girl named Lan Luoluo caused considerable impact on Xu Sanshi when attacking!
However, Tang Wutong knew clearly that the blood overflowing from the corner of Xu Sanshi's mouth was extravasated blood. This Earth Dragon Gate seemed to plan on consuming their combat power, but unexpectedly, Xu Sanshi's recovery ability far exceeded his own consumption.
If the Earth Dragon Gate planned to consume Xu Sanshi's soul power by delaying the competition time, their wishful thinking might fail.
"I can spend the whole day with you." Xu Sanshi held the shield and posed in a defensive stance again.
"Oh, really?" Lan Luoluo's expression suddenly changed from previous ferocity back to her usual coldness. Her eyes were so calm that even a perfunctory smile was hard to see. At this time, she suddenly held the meteor hammer in her hand.
"Now, I can avenge my sister."
As that meteor hammer returned to her hand, Xu Sanshi's heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, because he suddenly noticed layers of imperceptible strange marks appearing on his Xuanwu Shield at some point.
"This is..."
"Level 6 soul tool, Ghost Kiss Hammer." Lan Luoluo looked at him calmly, "Every time it hits the same object, it adds a layer of Ghost Seal on it. With the increase in the number of Ghost Seals, the constantly hit object will gradually disintegrate from the inside."
"I guessed that you would take advantage of your cultivation level to sustain the battle while I attacked. So, you arrogantly let me hit your martial soul four hundred and thirty-eight times."
Crack!
As her voice fell, a crack suddenly appeared on the surface of the Xuanwu Shield in Xu Sanshi's hand. An indescribable panic instantly spread in his heart.
Crack crack crack...
As the Xuanwu Shield continued to shatter, one could see cracks spreading vertically and horizontally on the Black Tortoise Shell Shield, looking as if it could collapse at any time. Xu Sanshi couldn't help groaning on the spot. The destruction of the martial soul was no different from the soul master being injured themselves, sometimes even more serious.
He was still arrogant!
"Good... good calculation..." Xu Sanshi fell on one knee with a thud, his face becoming extremely pale. Now, he couldn't even use his martial soul.
He even somewhat regretted why he didn't directly use the eighth soul skill to slap Lan Luoluo away as soon as he came up! Although that would consume a lot for him, it was better than his martial soul being severely damaged now.
"Surrender. You can no longer use your martial soul." Lan Luoluo's sixth soul ring lit up. It was exactly the same soul skill as her sister Lan Susu, Cage of the Trapped Beast.
Seeing those extremely threatening hair strands falling in all directions, Xu Sanshi's heart tightened. Ignoring the pain coming from the depths of his soul, he used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, wanting to avoid the falling range of the Cage of the Trapped Beast.
"Don't think about escaping!" Lan Luoluo gritted her teeth. The fifth soul ring also lit up. Several fine hair strands shot towards Xu Sanshi with lightning speed. The latter couldn't dodge in time and was hit on one calf.
Fifth Soul Skill: Parasitic Thread.
Xu Sanshi, who was using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, trembled all over. He only felt his body suddenly disobey his brain's instructions and began to become uncontrollable.
No one would have thought that Lan Luoluo actually had a control-type soul skill. This soul skill first scattered dozens of hair strands in the air, then fell like a meteor shower and inserted into the opponent's body to manipulate their limb movements. Since the hair she could manipulate only wrapped around the manipulated target's skin or broke through flesh and blood to wrap around bones, there was no way to interfere with others' will.
However, just at this moment, Xu Sanshi's right hand strangely retracted in front of his chest, then pushed outward. The light and shadow manifested by soul power condensed into shape, hands clasped together in front of the chest. A chilling aura instantly permeated out.
At this moment, Lan Luoluo only felt her heart contract violently, then pump massive amounts of blood. All hair on her body stood on end, as if stared at by an extremely venomous snake, capable of taking her life in one bite.
Just at this time, the light and shadow in front of Xu Sanshi moved. Its hands clasped in front of the chest swung horizontally. A golden light as thin as hair shot out like electricity.
Where it passed, it didn't bring up the slightest ripple, not even a tiny sound of breaking the air. Unless observed extremely carefully, it couldn't even be seen.
At least among the spectators below the competition stage, no one saw this wisp of golden light flash past. It seemed to even absorb the light refracted by itself.
Huo Yuhao, who clearly captured this scene, instantly darkened his face. He had already guessed what Xu Sanshi did.
Lan Luoluo's face changed drastically. The moment that golden light flashed, even her soul felt stinging pain. This was simply an unavoidable blow!
The golden light of the Invincible Barrier instantly wrapped Lan Luoluo inside. She wouldn't reject using things like Invincible Barriers relying on her strong power.
However, facing the desperate counterattack of a Soul Douluo, she was still a bit weak—the Invincible Barrier shattered instantly.
Lan Luoluo seemed to suffer a heavy blow. Her beautiful eyes quickly lost focus, and her whole person fell straight to the ground.
Watching this scene, Xu Sanshi sighed. Ancestor Tang San, sorry, I failed to let the reputation of the Tang Sect's top hidden weapon continue in my hands. However, I ultimately only used half the ability of that unique skill. If it could be matched with highly toxic poison, hitting that once, she would definitely die.
If Yama calls you to die at the third watch, who dares to keep you until the fifth watch? This is the third ranked among the three major hand-thrown hidden weapon unique skills of the Tang Sect left by Tang San in the Poison Manual, Yama's Invitation!
Soul-Chasing Life-Taking Yama's Invitation.
Unbroken Douluo Zheng Zhan moved immediately, blocking in front of Xu Sanshi, and announced loudly: "This match, Tang Sect wins!"
As the referee announced the result of the match, Nan Qiuqiu was the first to rush into the competition venue.
She hugged the unconscious Lan Luoluo on the ground, checking her current condition.
Whether Lan Susu or Lan Luoluo, they both risked everything for Huo Yuhao's ultimate goal. If she really wanted to integrate into Huo Yuhao's team, how could she flee before the battle?
"It's Yama's Invitation." Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, forcibly maintaining his state of mind. The moment of the final decisive battle was coming. No matter what, he couldn't have a mishap here.
"Eldest Senior Sister, go bring Luoluo back. I'll check if Xu Sanshi's hidden weapon was poisoned."
"Okay." Zhang Lexuan dared not delay, hurriedly rushed up and took Lan Luoluo from Nan Qiuqiu's hands.
"Qiuqiu, you... do what you can!" Zhang Lexuan glanced at Nan Qiuqiu, hesitated for a moment, and said.
Nan Qiuqiu silently turned to Xu Sanshi who was adjusting his breath in the field. Compared to the Lan sisters, she, still a Soul Emperor, was undoubtedly much weaker. But the Lan sisters had paved the way for her, weakening Xu Sanshi's combat power to the extreme. She had no reason to be timid.
"Third Brother, do you want me to replace you?" Tang Wutong asked Xu Sanshi inside through the protective shield about to close with some worry.
Xu Sanshi shook his head. Since going on stage, he always had an illusion that the Earth Dragon Gate in front was very dangerous.
Facing an opponent that even he, a Soul Douluo, felt dangerous, how could he let Tang Wutong face them unprepared?
Just then, his third opponent finally appeared. Surprisingly, the true Young Master of the Earth Dragon Gate, the soul master inheriting the Rouge Dragon Martial Soul, Nan Qiuqiu!
