Douluo Dalu 2: Unrivaled Tang Sect

Chapter 601.3. Trap to Kill an Ultimate Douluo

Ye Xishui drifted in mid-air and revealed a scornful look on her face. There were still ten blood souls surrounding her.

The avenging spirits of two Class 9 soul engineers. Great stuff! However, soul engineers will only be soul engineers. The strength of their souls is still far from a true Titled Douluo. Its a pity. As she spoke, she shook her head and sighed. The soul engineers watching her were furious.

Ye Xishui coldly looked at Xu Tianran, Continue attacking if you want to kill me. Ill see how much youre willing to sacrifice. Its a pity that you might not succeed. As she spoke, she started to descend.

She pressed her palm against the ground.

Strong bloody lights spread along the ground. Deafening booms started to echo throughout the entire imperial palace.

Xu Tianran and Kong Demings expressions changed. They knew what Ye Xishui wanted. She couldnt overcome their aerial defense, and thus it was impossible for her to escape. However, even compression array soul tools couldnt cover the ground. Although the ground defenses in the palace were still very impressive, they werent good enough. At least, they werent good enough to stop an Ultimate Douluo.

The ground shook. The ground beneath Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong also shook at the same time.

They were no longer in the store. They were on the streets. Just like many civilians, they saw the rainbow glow in the sky.

Of course, the civilians didnt know what was happening. To them, it was very common for something like this to happen in the Sun Moon Empire. Soul tool technology was very widespread here.

Huo Yuhao furrowed his brow. From his perspective high up in the sky, he could see many things. However, his spiritual power couldnt enter the barrier formed by the compression array soul tools. He could only see what was going on inside.

As the ground shook, he could roughly guess what Ye Xishui was doing. Yes, the ground might be her only route of escape. But had Xu Tianran really not prepared for this? It wasnt impossible to unleash a protective soul barrier underground, although it wasted a lot of time. Furthermore, it would be very difficult to control. Could it resist an Ultimate Douluo?

Tang Wutong turned her head to look at Huo Yuhao. She asked, Who do you hope will win this fight?

Xu Tianran. Huo Yuhao answered without any hesitation.

Tang Wutong was astonished. Arent you sympathetic of Elder Ye after listening to Long Xiaoyaos story earlier?

I am, Huo Yuhao replied, but Ill still wish for Ye Xishui to be killed. Theres no room for negotiation. Can you imagine it? What would happen if an enraged, evil Ultimate Douluo escapes? Even though I dont like the Sun Moon Empire, I dont wish to see any innocent civilians killed. Thats why Ye Xishui must die. If she really escapes, we must risk everything to kill her. Even though well incur Elder Longs wrath, we have to do so.

Huo Yuhao was very hard-headed with his words. He didnt hesitate at all.

Tang Wutong nodded silently and said, The fight has been going on for some time. Why hasnt anyone from the Holy Ghost Church come to assist Ye Xishui? Are they really so scared of death?

Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, No. This must be Ye Xishuis arrangement. Its easier for one person to escape. If the Holy Ghost Church is here, can they resist four soul engineer legions? Theyll only send themselves to die. The Holy Ghost Church has suffered heavy losses recently. Ye Xishui must have had told them to leave first before she entered the palace herself. Its a pity. Up until now, we still dont know where their headquarters are. Otherwise, we could find many opportunities to make our move if we went over there now.

At this moment, a beam of black light suddenly landed in front of Huo Yuhao. He raised his hand at grabbed at that beam of light.

It was a black piece of paper, with words in some kind of white pigment. When he saw the words on it, Huo Yuhao was astonished. He immediately held Tang Wutongs hand and turned around before leaving.

Inside the palace, the ground only stopped shaking after a minute or so. A huge depression more than a hundred meters deep had appeared.

It was hollow beneath the palace. When Ye Xishui used her palm strike, an entire cave was immediately formed.

Ye Xishui jumped down without any hesitation. Because of this, she paid the price of two blood souls.

Even though there might be traps underground, the geography underground was confusing. She only had a chance to escape if she exploited this confusion. This was why she had to face any arrangements Xu Tianran had made underground.

Xu Tianran sighed and softly shook his head after Ye Xishui escaped underground. After this, a sly smile surfaced on his face. As he waved, the rainbow glow in the sky suddenly scattered. Immediately, he flew towards the sky with Ju Zi. It wasnt just him. Kong Deming, the Class 9 soul engineers and the four soul engineer legions all rose up.

A black figure appeared in the sky. It jumped into the palace without any hesitation. A low-pitched dragon roar sounded immediately after this.

Xu Tianran clearly noticed this black figure, but he didnt stop anyone from letting the figure enter. Instead, a wider smile surfaced on his face.

The rainbow glow shone once again. The four high-energy compression array soul tools unleashed stronger beams of light compared to before. This time, even the underground of the palace was covered in a rainbow glow.

Boom A boom resonated underground. A beam of light lit up.

Ye Xishui was flung into the air by this beam of light. She didnt manage to escape after all.

Xu Tianran laughed, Ye Xishui, you must not have expected this. I sacrificed my palace to deal with you. Im clearly aware of the price to pay to kill you. I drained you to force you to take risks. Otherwise, what if you had some other special ability? Thats why this will be your grave. You must not have guessed the true purpose of my four compression array soul tools. They are going to be your coffin. This is to protect Radiant City, and prevent the collapse of the palace from affecting anything in the city. Its just that I didnt expect Long Xiaoyao to be so attached to you. This is the best ending. Goodbye, Death God Douluo. Go and find your Death God and the Dragon God Douluo. This is great.

As he spoke, Xu Tianran pressed a button at the bottom of his staff.

The entire palace shook a little. Following this, an orange-red glow was unleashed from underground. This glow was very weak at the start. It only appeared from the slits. However, the slits soon became bigger and bigger. The glow also became bigger and bigger. The orange-red glow and the rainbow glow of the compression array soul tools intersected.

Slight quaking sounds rumbled. It was important to know that this was even after there were compression array soul tools to protect the city. How terrifying must the quaking be to generate this?

Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong werent even out of Radiant City yet, but they turned around at almost the same time. What they saw was only a huge orange-red ball light rising from the imperial palace.

Huo Yuhao instantly turned pale. Vicious. Xu Tianran is really vicious. He used his palace to deal with the Death God Douluo. I wonder how Elder Long is. Lets go back. Huo Yuhao pulled Tang Wutong and ran back without any hesitation. Long Xiaoyaos condition was unknown, but Ye Xishui was definitely doomed. This was Xu Tianrans killing blow. He must have been very confident.

Right now, Huo Yuhaos train of thought was completely clear. He finally understood how Xu Tianran had managed to trick Ye Xishui.

The imperial palace was a complete trap. Class 9 stationary soul cannon shells must have had been installed inside the palace. As for how many of them there were, he was unsure. However, there was definitely more than one or two if they wanted to kill an Ultimate Douluo.

From the start until the end, the compression array soul tools were a bluff. Ye Xishuis attention was drawn to what they were capable of.

They were indeed very strong. However, they were almost invincible when it came to defending. When they were used to attack, it did seem that they were still rather flawed. However, Xu Tianran used them to defend! At the same time, the explosion was made even more destructive as it was confined. The Death God Douluo was most certainly dead!

No wonder he had such a strong sense of crisis when he got close to the imperial palace. If he and Tang Wutong were in the palace, they would have been doomed too! Even if they could escape in time, they would still be encircled by the Sun Moon Empire. This proved that his senses were very accurate. Not entering the palace saved both him and Tang Wutong.

The orange-red glow was getting stronger and stronger. Even the glow from the Sun couldnt compare to it. If one watched from above, he would notice that there was an extra sun at the core of Radiant City. It was a sun that was flashing with an intense red glow. This sun was dazzling, but it was filled with death.

Xu Tianran had already flown up high. Even though his plan was foolproof, and the soul tools were capable of withstanding the explosion, he still flew up high. There was no harm for him to be cautious, and this was something he did very well.
