Chapter 77 Shocking Change
Zhu Zhuqing's Nine Yin Divine Claw struck Ye Lingling's shoulder with pinpoint accuracy. Ye Lingling groaned and flew backward, landing on the Soul Battle Platform. The Nine Heart Begonia in her hand dimmed—she was eliminated!
Less than five seconds into the match, Ye Lingling, the core support of the Royal Fighting Team and a Soul Master of the Nine Heart Begonia, was forcibly removed from the field!
"Lingling!" Yu Tianheng's eyes were bloodshot. He smashed the jade rabbit clone that was entangled in the fight with one claw, but another illusion of Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing pounced on him. He felt like he was stuck in a quagmire, with great strength but being restrained at every turn.
The Dawn team's tactics successfully achieved the first and most crucial step—eliminating the healer.
Next up is their signature "infinite healing" combo.
Five Xiao Wu and three Zhu Zhuqing were still active on the field. Yan Zu was in the center directing the operation, and the aura of vitality in the corridor maintained a stable and continuous effect.
He no longer uses the Jade Protection on a large scale, but instead uses it precisely. Whenever a clone or the main body is about to suffer a serious injury, the pale blue shield will always appear in time to resolve the crisis.
Oscar retreated to the vicinity of Yan Zu and Ning Rongrong, becoming the busiest "logistics minister." He restored the large sausages and detoxified small sausages, throwing them out like they were free, precisely feeding every clone and the main body on the front lines.
Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda shimmered with light, and her amplification became more strategic. She spent most of her time maintaining support for Yan Zu and Oscar's soul power recovery, ensuring the core's sustainability.
When Xiao Wu or Zhu Zhuqing's true form launches an attack, the amplification of either strength or speed will switch instantly to maximize its burst. Her exquisite control over soul power ensures that the amplification is almost entirely wasted.
Xiao Wu's true form and the Jade Rabbit clone were like a pink whirlwind on the battlefield, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing.
Using his teleportation soul skill in conjunction with his waist bow, he carried out efficient and dangerous harassment and attacks, focusing on Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng, not giving them a chance to catch their breath and organize an effective counterattack.
The phantoms relentlessly pursued Wind Chaser, Oslo, and Graphite Millstone.
Zhu Zhuqing's true form transforms into the most lethal assassin, using the illusion as cover to unleash the full potential of "Nine Spiral Shadows" and "Nine Yin Divine Claws".
She no longer pursued a one-hit kill, but instead lingered on the edge of the battlefield, specifically targeting the weaknesses exposed by the Royal Fighting Team members when they were unable to break through the defenses or when their coordination faltered. Every strike she made was sure to draw blood. Although not fatal, the accumulated injuries constantly eroded the opponent's fighting spirit and stamina.
Royal Fighting Team is facing an unprecedentedly tough battle.
Each of them felt as if they were fighting several enemies at the same time. These enemies varied in strength; some were powerful and required serious attention, while others were fragile and easily broken, yet incredibly annoying, and they seemed to never be finished off!
What frustrated them even more was that no matter what kind of damage they inflicted on the other side, under the healing range of that damned Qilin Martial Soul and the replenishment from that food-type Soul Master sausage, the opponent's effective combat power always seemed to recover or be replenished very quickly.
As for themselves, without Ye Lingling's healing, their injuries were accumulating and their soul power was being rapidly depleted.
The battle had completely fallen into the rhythm of the Dawn Team—a brutal war of attrition, exhausting their soul power, physical strength, and willpower.
As time ticked by, the gasps from the audience gradually turned into exclamations and enthusiastic cheers.
The "Dawn" team's tactics of defeating the strong with the weak, overcoming strength with skill, and exhausting the opponent with recovery are full of wisdom and resilience, making them both exciting and breathtaking to watch.
The members of the Royal Fighting Team began to show signs of fatigue and anxiety.
Yu Tianheng's lightning was no longer as dazzling as it had been at first. Dugu Yan's face was pale, her breathing was rapid, and the frequency and intensity of her poisonous mist release were decreasing. Shi Mo Shi Mo's movements were slightly slower, and Yu Feng and Oslo had several more claw marks and kicks on their bodies.
In contrast, although Yan Zu of the Dawn Team maintained two major soul skills and his face was slightly pale, his eyes remained clear and his soul power was still abundant.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's main bodies remained full of energy thanks to the Vitality Corridor and Oscar's sausages. Although the phantom clones were occasionally defeated, Oscar would replenish them in time, maintaining a numerical advantage.
The scales of victory have tipped irreversibly.
"No... this can't go on!" A hint of ruthlessness and humiliation flashed in Dugu Yan's eyes. As the vice-captain and a Jade Phosphorous Serpent Soul Master, when had she ever felt so humiliated?
Seeing that her team was about to be defeated, she gritted her teeth and, disregarding that her soul power was almost exhausted, forcibly activated all the remaining soul power. Her first, second, and third soul rings flashed intensely at the same time!
"Azure phosphorus red poison! Azure phosphorus blue poison! Azure phosphorus purple poison! The three poisons combined! Disperse!" she screamed hoarsely. What she spewed out was no longer just a simple poisonous mist, but a terrifying wave of poison mixed with red, blue, and purple, rolling endlessly, and emitting a nauseating sweet and rotten smell!
This is her trump card ability, which forcibly fuses three different snake venoms to increase their power, but the backlash is also extremely great. She would never dare to use it lightly under normal circumstances!
The three-colored poisonous waves surged and raged, instantly covering most of the Soul Arena, and even the air emitted a "sizzling" corrosive sound.
Xiao Yu let out a sharp cry, unleashing its auspicious energy to fight against the poisonous wave. However, this time, the poisonous wave was too fierce, and the auspicious energy could only barely protect the core area where Yan Zu, Ning Rongrong, and Oscar were located, unable to completely purify it.
Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and their illusory clones at the front line were instantly engulfed by the poisonous waves! The protective shield of the jade, under the corrosive force of the poisonous waves, groaned under its strain and quickly dimmed and shattered!
The weakest of the Thousand Illusions clones vanished into smoke almost instantly upon contact with the poisonous wave. The Jade Rabbit clone also let out a painful groan, its movements stiff, and signs of corrosion appeared on its body. Seeing the situation was dire, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing immediately retreated.
"Opportunity! Counterattack!" Upon seeing this, Yu Tianheng's spirits lifted, and he mustered his remaining soul power to lead his teammates in a desperate counterattack.
However, the moment he finished speaking, something unexpected happened!
Forced to unleash the ultimate combination of the three poisons, Dugu Yan, whose soul power was already on the verge of exhaustion, trembled violently. Her face instantly lost all color, followed by an abnormal bluish-black hue! The three-colored poison waves she spewed out suddenly went out of control, swirling back and partially entangling herself!
"Pfft!" Dugu Yan spat out a mouthful of black blood, which corroded a small pit on the ground.
She clutched her neck tightly with both hands, as if unable to breathe. Her eerie vertical pupils were filled with extreme pain and fear. Her body convulsed violently, and she curled up and collapsed to the ground, emitting suppressed, chilling groans of pain.
The Azure Phosphorus Serpent venom within her body, due to the complete disruption and overextension of her soul power, lost control and launched a violent backlash! The deadly poison raged wildly through her meridians and internal organs, eroding her life force.
"Yanzi!!!" Yu Tianheng's roar was filled with terror and despair. He could no longer care about fighting back. He rushed over like a madman and hugged Dugu Yan, who was curled up and convulsing, her face was ashen, and her breath was rapidly weakening.
The poisonous wave dissipated rapidly due to its loss of control. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were able to catch their breath and quickly retreated to rejoin Yan Zu and the others, watching the sudden and dramatic change opposite them with astonishment and uncertainty.
