The Seven Headed Fire Phoenix Domain appeared, and its first effect was to completely block those sea spirit beasts outside, the terrifying flame aura forcing them to stay away, not daring to charge.
Due to this second trial being conducted by the Devil Spirit Great White Shark King Xiao Bai, there actually wasn’t any other formidable sea spirit beasts in the ring sea. This might be a kind of balance for the trial. And in fact, Xiao Bai alone was scary enough. Even though she wouldn’t use fatal attacks in the ring sea, her strength was enough to block the equivalent of several Title Douluo level sea Spirit Masters. Passing was easier said than done. Especially when all of Tang San’s spirit abilities as well as Ning Rongrong’s seventh spirit ability were sealed.
Faced with the obstruction of the domain Xiao Bai released, Fatty released his the domain he received from the seventh spirit ring for the first time. Seven Headed Fire Phoenix.
The reason the seven devils could currently advance swiftly was naturally also because of Ma Hongjun’s domain. Within the range of the Seven Headed Fire Phoenix domain, the sea became fire attributed, and even though it wasn’t true lava, it was still absolutely out of Xiao Bai’s control. Xiao Bai was even more exceptionally angry from Fatty daring to use a fire attributed domain to contend against her within the ring sea. In fact, releasing mutually restricting domains in such an environment had extremely frightening spirit power consumption. Ma Hongjun absolutely couldn’t persist for long.
But the Shrek Seven Devils never fought alone. Oscar had long since made sausages, and Ning Rongrong’s Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda boosted, both allowing Fatty’s ability to show its fullest effect. At the same time as he released his domain, he had already eaten a stimulating pink sausage. Even more importantly, he also has Tang San planning strategies.
For one year’s time, the Shrek Seven Devils had almost always spent their time contending against Xiao Bai. They could be said to have a perfectly clear understanding of Xiao Bai’s strength. Under such circumstances, how could Tang San fail to make accurate calculations? He’d long since planned for the worst. That they could currently charge up to a hundred meters was already beyond his expectations.
Weng—— The ring sea vibrated violently. In Xiao Bai’s anger, blue crystalline ripples spread from her forehead, directly chasing the Shrek Seven Devils. And simultaneously, the blue grey light erupting from her body grew explosively stronger, all the water in the entire ring sea condensing as if solid. Rather than carefully targeting the Shrek Seven Devils, even the other sea spirit beasts in the water were unable to move in this seawater trap.
That’s right, Tang San’s domains had evolved abilities, and the hundred thousand year sea spirit beast Xiao Bai equally had her evolved ability. The blue grey light emanating from her was precisely her Devil Shark Domain evolved ability, Solidification. This was also the strongest method Xiao Bai used to stop the Shrek Seven Devils.
The blue ripples she released from her head weren’t just the domain ability, but rather the special mental attack that once almost ended Tang San, called Despair Light Wave. If enemies were enveloped by the light wave, they would be unable to move, and moreover, all their spirit abilities would be briefly sealed, like fish on the chopping board, ready for Xiao Bai to butcher them.
At the same time as she released the two formidable abilities, Xiao Bai’s enormous body also moved. In practically a flash she had already charged over to the Shrek Seven Devils. The position she chose was extremely clever, not facing Ma Hongjun and Oscar head on, but rather the person boosting them from the middle position, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Ning Rongrong.
Ning Rongrong was undoubtedly the weakest among the seven devils, but her strength was also the most irreplaceable. With her boosts, everyone’s strength could comprehensively rise by at least fifty percent. For some special capabilities she could even boost them by a frightening eighty percent intensity.
This wasn’t the time to play around. Xiao Bai’s extremely plentiful battle experience made her choose the most optimum target for attack.
From strengthening the domain, to releasing the Despair Light Wave, and again to moving to attack, the three different actions could be said to instantly erupt with her hundred thousand year spirit beast formidable strength. Without such strength, how could she always have kept the Shrek Seven Devils from reaching a hundred meters.
However, the seven devils Xiao Bai confronted this time were clearly different from before.
The seawater suddenly solidifying indeed did make everyone slow down, but it didn’t completely halt them like she imagined.
Even though releasing the Seven Headed Phoenix Domain in the sea was enormously exhausting to Fatty, the result was extremely valiant. Even faced with Xiao Bai’s evolved domain ability, that lava-like domain still kept pushing forward.
And the moment Xiao Bai’s Despair Light Wave charged, she also suffered the seven devils’ attack. The person who launched their attack was no other than the soul of the Shrek Seven Devils, the undisputed leader, with all spirit ring abilities completely sealed, Tang San.
Two beams of deeply purple golden rays of light shot towards Xiao Bai, those rays just passed through the Despair Light Wave and bombarded straight towards Xiao Bai’s forehead.
When she just saw those purple golden rays, Xiao Bai was unconcerned. With a body with a hundred thousand years of cultivation, she basically didn’t need to mind some attacks. However, she very quickly discovered her mistake. Because that purple golden light didn’t seem to suffer any of the seawater’s refraction, on the contrary, as the light came closer and closer to her, she could clearly feel her senses that could originally encompass the entire ring sea grow sluggish.
Spiritual attack? Even a quite high level spiritual attack. Xiao Bai finally made the correct judgement in the next moment. Even though she was arrogant, she absolutely wasn’t a fool. Her spiritual force was very formidable, and she understood clearly the terrifying aftereffects of some spiritual attacks. Especially this charged up dense spiritual attack Tang San launched made her feel an even greater sense of danger.
Of course, Xiao Bai wasn’t afraid that Tang San’s Purple God Light could harm her, while using the Despair Light Wave, it was practically impossible for Tang San to injure her in a spiritual force clash. However, she clearly knew that, even if Tang San couldn’t harm her, even a strategy that would harm him by one thousand and her by eight hundred would be enough to make her briefly dizzy. Even if Tang San would injure himself even more severely, her being dizzy would mean her domain would temporarily disappear. Dizziness also meant delay. Relying on Ma Hongjun and Oscar to now open up the path forward, they could quickly advance. If her domain didn't block them, just one or two seconds or dizziness would very possibly be enough to let these fellows break through the blockade and charge to the other shore.
Xiao Bai of course wouldn’t let the Shrek Seven Devils pass this trial so smoothly. If she did, she’d lose her job. Helplessly, she could only give up on using the Despair Light Wave to restrain them, and again beat out an impulse in the ring sea. Under her perfect control, the Despair Light Wave suddenly contracted, pressuring towards Tang San’s Purple God Light. At the same time it turned into a point attack, a targeted strike on Tang San.
Now, Xiao Bai’s impulse, without slowing down, charged into Ma Hongjun’s Seven Headed Fire Phoenix Domain. She clearly saw the corners of Tang San’s mouth seem to show a faint smile.
What was he smiling about? This thought had only just appeared in Xiao Bai’s mind, when she immediately discovered her mistake, and a heartfelt panicked feeling filled her whole body. She seemed to lose her connection with the ring sea that was previously completely under her control, and the surrounding incomparably got aura made her mind shudder uncontrollably. Not only did her momentum forward abruptly come to a halt, but the Despair Light Wave was influenced by Tang San’s single target attack and weakened considerably.
With a soft rippling sound, Tang San
gave a muffled groan in the sea, blood flowing from all seven apertures simultaneously, flowing out like little snakes, he turned pale, and temporarily lost his eyesight. Xiao Bai’s spiritual force was after all far too much stronger than his, and even though it was considerably weakened by simultaneously entering his and Ma Hongjun’s domain, it still put Tang San at a disadvantage.
Xiao Bai’s enormous body also paused because of the spiritual force shock. However, this was also a feeling that roused her. The Devil Shark Domain that had just relaxed was reinforced again. The aura within the Seven Headed Phoenix Domain made her extremely uncomfortable, but even so, she still didn’t immediately withdraw. With a shake, her shark tail whipped straight towards Ning Rongrong. This attack was not only incomparably fast, but furthermore extremely powerful. If she was directly hit, Ning Rongrong would immediately lose her ability to fight. But the seven devils undoubtedly couldn’t give up on her, otherwise it would be impossible for Ning Rongrong to successfully cross the sea with her strength alone. Xiao Bai was attacking the one person the enemies had to save, it was the best way to break the seven devils’ chance to pass.
However, her shark tail attack came unfulfilled. Because, a fiery red silhouette abruptly charged up, and just as the shark tail swung, it forcefully grabbed on.
……
“Little Ao, as you and Fatty open up the path, after Fatty releases his domain, Xiao Bai will definitely get embarrassed into a rage and launch an attack. And her target will definitely be Rongrong. Your clone body will be put in use at this point. If I guess correctly, in order for Xiao Bai to not truly harm Rongrong, she definitely won’t use energy attacks, but rather use her valiant body. The shark tail is the most likely. At this time, you use your clone body to stop her.”
……
As the clone body held tightly to Xiao Bai’s shark tail and brazenly self detonated, Oscar couldn’t keep Tang San’s plan from echoing in his mind. When he saw Xiao Bai swing her shark tail, he couldn’t help feeling like prostrating himself in admiration for Tang San’s foresight.
The clone body Oscar made from the clone mirror sausage possessed eighty percent of his ability, and in his present state, he had a hundred percent of Ma Hongjun’s spirit power. Even though the clone body wouldn’t get Ning Rongrong’s Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda boost, the might of the body brimming with phoenix flame suddenly exploding was terrifying. Especially as that phoenix flame contained a naturally restraining effect to Xiao Bai.
With a loud explosion, the surrounding seawater vaporized. The shark tail Xiao Bai swung out was blasted back, and even though she wasn’t truly harmed, the scorching phoenix flame entered her body, and she felt no better than if she was set on fire.
Anger filled Xiao Bai’s body and heart. Held back in all respects, the strength that was completely above the Shrek Seven Devils was completely unable to come out at all, so how could she not be angry?
With this brief delay, the Shrek Seven Devils were already more than halfway, having reached one hundred thirty meters. The closer they got to shore, the larger the variables would be, this bit was something Xiao Bai of course understood. However, under such circumstances, her body still halted for a moment.
Grey blue light burst from the tip of her nose to cover her whole body. She had numerous comprehensive attack methods that could stop the Shrek Seven Devils, but those attacks were too powerful. One mistake and it would take their lives. Therefore, she had no choice but to use other methods.
As that grey blue light spread, Xiao Bai’s body suddenly grew crystalline. Her white skin turned completely transparent blue grey, and the surrounding seawater suddenly halted under the influence of a peculiar aura. The Devil Shark Domain’s third evolution completed, this time it wasn’t just solidifying, but rather truly turning substantial. To be precise, it should be called the Devil Shark Domain’s third evolved ability, Crystallization.
The entire ring sea was like an enormous blue gem. Besides Xiao Bai, anyone trying to break through would be hindered by water as hard as crystal. If it was in the seawater, Xiao Bai could rely on this third evolution to completely annihilate groups of enemies. All that was needed was a simple squeeze. Even if the Shrek Seven Devils had now set up a channel of air, moving forward was extremely difficult, they had to break the crystal to advance. And being able to move freely within the domain, she could completely treat these fellows as sitting ducks. Even to the extent that she could use the changes in the domain to move the pocket of air with the people inside back to the shores of the Seagod Mountain.
Lights flashing before his eyes, even if his mind felt like a pincushion, when Tang San saw everything before them he grew happy rather than alarmed. I’ve been waiting for your domain’s third evolution. Such a form had been seen in their previous fights, and by exploiting all kinds of coercion he had finally forced Xiao Bai to use it.
“Fatty, little Ao, rest. Mubai, Zhuqing, begin. Rongrong, boost me.”
A series of calm declarations came from Tang San’s mouth.
Indeed, the ring sea crystallizing had indeed made it very even more difficult for the Shrek Seven Devils to advance, but at the same time they also lacked the threat of being submerged in water.
Even though everyone had conducted combat with Xiao Bai in the sea for the past year, that didn’t mean they would do the same when they finally tried to pass. As land Spirit Masters, no matter how they refined their marine combat cultivation, it was still only with their feet firmly planted on the ground that they could exert their greatest strength. Furthermore, in the whole process of cultivating with Xiao Bay, in order to forge themselves even better, the seven devil had always held back a bit.
The light from Ma Hongjun and Oscar faded simultaneously, and the two no longer charged forward, and after returning to their original forms they immediately ate several of Oscar’s big recovery sausages. In fact, Oscar was currently still under the influence of the Erect Gold Fly. The big recovery sausages he made were a lot more effective than ordinarily.
At the same time, Ning Rongrong stopped her boost to them. Golden light flashed in her hand. Even though she was a bit unwilling, she still ate three Erect Gold Flies in succession. That was equal to the effect of three of Oscar’s Spirit Avatars! Perhaps only a food system Spirit Master’s spirit avatar could be used in this way. With each Erect Gold Fly Ning Rongrong ate, a line of resplendent light would issue from her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. With the bright light as foundation, each contained a gold hazy speck of light. All three lines of light simultaneously fell on Tang San.
White light condensed, no longer spreading to their companions, but focused only on him. Xiao Wu leapt aside, watching Tang San a bit nervously.
The Clear Sky Hammer entering his hand, Tang San began to dance while bathed in Ning Rongrong’s three resplendent lights. The tips of his left foot’s toes stuck to the ground, his body instantly spinning half a turn, the Clear Sky Hammer quietly swung out, black light flashed, unexpectedly without the slightest wave of spirit power. Even more frightening, at Tang San’s turn, with the tips of his toes as center, countless fine cracks began to spread out in all directions through the crystallized and extremely solid seawater.
And on the other end, Xiao Bai confronted her biggest problem since she met the Shrek Seven Devils.
White and black fused together in that not very large space. The next instant, an incomparably dazzling light abruptly burst out. Even though that bright light was unable to break through the protective barrier formed from Seagod’s power at her forehead, within the crystallized ring sea, with them as center, the deep blue seawater turned to powder and began to swiftly melt.
The light constantly spread, the pressure so enormous even Xiao Bai had no time to mind them. She could clearly see Tang San’s motions on the other side, but she couldn’t afford the distraction of stopping him. It had been a long time since she had experienced a choking feeling like the one exploding from the black and white blended light in fr
ont. The incomparable pressure actually made this Devil Spirit Great White Shark King shiver, forcing her to back up to store up strength.
The pupils of her eyes contracting, Xiao Bai clearly saw that, at the same time as that black and white light gradually fused, a fifteen meter long, eight meter high giant winged tiger, glittering all over with black illusory magic lines, appear in front of her.
Each magic line on its body distributed an aura so frightening it was difficult to describe, and in its surroundings, both the air as well as the seawater in Xiao Bai’s Devil Shark Domain distorted slightly, the giant ‘king’ (王) character on its forehead was even more like a strange eye, radiating endless darkness.
This, what was this? Xiao Bai looked foolishly at this incomparably immense black striped white tiger, and for a moment a feeling close to inferiority arose in her heart.
However, she was after all a hundred thousand year spirit beast, one of the tyrants of the vast oceans. After being briefly startled, she very quickly returned to her senses. Whatever this was, it was nothing to fear in her domain.
Along with the grey blue light suddenly rising, the smashed domain began to reform, squeezing towards that giant white tiger. Due to this enormous white tiger pressuring her head on, she currently couldn’t spare the power to control Tang San and the others.
This giant white tiger was naturally Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing using Spirit Avatar to form the Hell White Tiger, and it was also the true meaning of the Hell White Tiger. This was their true strength, the killing weapon of the Shrek Seven Devils. This one move had always been saved for now, prepared to pass the trial. Nevermind that Xiao Bai hadn’t seen it, even the Shrek Seven Devils, even Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing themselves didn’t know to what frightening degree of power the Hell White Tiger could reach in this condition.
Humph—— A deep muffled snort came from the Hell White Tiger. The next moment, one of its foreclaws already swatted out, and instantly, deep black light spread out in a ring. Where it passed, the crystallized water beneath it actually turned back to water. Its enormous body pounced straight towards Xiao Bai. The momentum of this leap was world shaking. Xiao Bai only felt like she was locked in place by this giant white tiger, everything in her surroundings dulled, and seemed to become unreal. Her mind couldn’t completely spread out even when drawing support from the domain.
