Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting-Chapter 1348: Reverse God Blade

Lan Xuanyu remained seated cross-legged, unmoving, but Bai Xiuxiu behind him had already stood up.

Her gaze was icy as she looked toward Sun Weiping and said coldly, "With just you?"

Sun Weiping let out a sly laugh, "What about me? Isn’t the Golden Dragon Princess already unable to fight? It’s a pity. Our Mantis Clan can only have one partner for life, otherwise, you’d be an option too."

Bai Xiuxiu suddenly chuckled, turning to glance at the seated Lan Xuanyu. "Sister, let me handle this match."

At this moment, Lan Xuanyu had also opened her eyes—ten minutes had just about passed. She floated effortlessly up from the ground, appearing unchanged on the surface. Yet, precisely because it seemed as if no recovery had occurred, it made others think she had suffered immense depletion in the previous battle. After all, the grandeur of the Light and Dark Divine Thunder and Zhu Cheng’s injuries were still fresh in everyone’s minds—proof too stark to ignore.

"Alright." Lan Xuanyu agreed with a single word before calmly stepping aside.

Sun Weiping became anxious and blurted out, "Why don’t both of you come at me together?"

Lan Xuanyu glanced at him yet didn’t respond, simply walking aside to take up a standing position, silently watching him.

The time had come. Fully clad in the Deep Blue Dragon Armor, Bai Xiuxiu swung open her Dragonlance. In an instant, the temperature across the arena seemed to plummet as if caught in her grasp.

Earlier, Lan Xuanyu hadn’t equipped the Divine Dragon Armor during her battle. Now, with Bai Xiuxiu donning her armor, along with her stunning beauty and poised stance, she instantly became the center of attention in the entire venue.

Those familiar with the Ascending Dragon Tournament remembered her impressive performance during the event. Her aid had been instrumental in helping Lan secure the championship, leaving no room to underestimate her contributions.

As Bai Xiuxiu unleashed her aura, the light across the arena dimmed as though all illumination had been consumed by her.

"Then I’ll defeat you first, then take down Lan." Sun Weiping growled lowly before launching himself forward, charging toward Bai Xiuxiu.

Fast! Sun Weiping’s speed was incredibly fast—almost as if he had turned into a human cannonball. The combat style of the Mantis Clan hinges on explosive force. Coupling intense burst power, razor-sharp Twin Blades, and instantaneous unleashed strength, they crush their opponents.

They are a fusion of speed and strength, with their notable weakness being defense. As the top prodigy of the Mantis Clan’s younger generation, Sun Weiping naturally embodied his clan’s combat essence.

In the air, his body created a trail of afterimages. His overwhelmingly sharp aura seemed to rip through the space of the entire arena, fragmenting all spatial fluctuations into chaos.

Unparalleled sharpness—this was a sharpness cultivated to its pinnacle. Such edge was a natural counter to powerhouses adept in spatial properties, as shattered space negated any possibility of teleportation.

Wielding the Reverse God Double Knives, he unleashed them with lightning speed, sending two immense crescent arcs over a hundred meters in length slicing toward Bai Xiuxiu. The Reverse God Blade—Slaying Gods, Shattering Souls.

Standing motionless, Bai Xiuxiu pointed her Dragonlance forward, a faint glow of cold light flickering in the depths of her eyes. She fully understood the formidable opponent before her, yet she remained unfazed.

These past six months hadn’t only been a season of rapid growth for Lan Xuanyu—she too had undergone remarkable progress. Under Lan Xuanyu’s guidance, she had gathered her cultivation, suppressing her state to avoid prematurely advancing into the God Rank level. Her own abilities had synergized and transformed into her unique combat style. After completing body refining three times and undergoing her Dragon Power’s evolution through the Dragon God’s bloodline, she was no longer the same person she’d been six months ago!

Without embellishment or flourish, she thrust her Dragonlance forward. At that moment, a colossal dragon-shaped projection abruptly manifested behind Bai Xiuxiu, perfectly aligned as if this specter was her very self.

"Ding—a crystalline sound rang out as the Ice Demon Dragon Spear struck precisely at the intersection of the Reverse God Blade’s crossed arcs.

The two massive crescents shattered, but armed with the Reverse God Double Knives, Sun Weiping had already closed the distance between them. His pair of knives instantly conjured countless blade projections, descending upon Bai Xiuxiu like a storm, seeming to want to carve her into pieces.

The spectators instinctively held their breath. Though Sun Weiping wasn’t known for his wit, his strength was undeniable. Those who dared to wager precious items like the Heaven-Nurturing Crystal Stone as a challenge fee were never without confidence in their abilities.

Yet Bai Xiuxiu remained utterly composed. Confronting his furious storm of blades, her movements became agile and fluid. Ripples of black light emanated from her body in waves, dispersing outward with her at their center. As if performing an elegant dance, Bai Xiuxiu maneuvered deftly, each blade projection subtly deflected by the black light radiating from her frame. Her Ice Demon Dragon Spear would consistently appear in the most opportune spots, meeting every frenzied blow from the Reverse God Blades.

The ferocious clash of energies continued unabated—blades and spears weaving and colliding incessantly. Within moments, their battle had reached its fever pitch. Despite the brutal onslaught of Sun Weiping’s Reverse God Double Knives, Bai Xiuxiu refused to yield an inch, holding her ground against his monstrous strikes.

This surprising spectacle drew wide-eyed gazes from the audience. Sun Weiping’s prowess ranked among the top of the younger generation of all clans. Although no one believed he could overcome the Golden Dragon Princess, they certainly didn’t expect Bai Xiuxiu, perceived as weaker and merely her mount dragon, to stand toe-to-toe with him. If this duel enabled the Golden Dragon Princess to recover, then Bai Xiuxiu’s abilities were undoubtedly astonishing. Such strength—how could it be? freēwēbnovel.com

Initially, Bai Xiuxiu had felt a sliver of anxiety. The overwhelming sharpness emanating from Sun Weiping was indeed daunting, even rendering the space around them torn and unstable. His explosive offensive carried an almost invincible momentum.

But as their battle went on, she began to notice that his strength didn’t quite measure up to her assumptions—defending against him wasn’t as difficult as she’d imagined. With the constant burst of Ice Moxue from her body and the domain effects of the Heavenly Demon Dance, her opponent’s speed visibly started to slow.

What was happening? Was his strength truly lacking, or was it possible that she had grown strong enough to suppress such an opponent?

Gradually, her focus deepened, immersing herself fully in this battle that belonged to her.

At first, Sun Weiping hadn’t taken Bai Xiuxiu seriously at all. In his eyes, this Xiuxiu was nothing more than mere decoration beside the Golden Dragon Princess. All he wanted was to defeat her quickly and take advantage of the Golden Dragon Princess’s incomplete recovery to seize victory—and perhaps even her affection.

Yet as the battle unfolded, he soon realized his folly. This Bai Xiuxiu was far more trouble than he had expected. During their initial clash, Sun Weiping had been startled—Bai Xiuxiu’s Ice Demon Dragon Spear had landed precisely at the center of his crossed strike. The erupting energy from the spear tip instantly scattered the sharpness of his blade. Moreover, an icy Dragon Power radiated back from her Reverse God Blade into his body. Though he quickly utilized his energy to dissipate it, a lingering chill remained.

As the fight dragged on, Bai Xiuxiu’s moves stayed primarily defensive, yet her Dragonlance always seemed to strike at the perfect moments, deflecting his assaults with ease. However, the ambient air was steadily growing colder, and the subtle emanations from her lithe figure began to exert a pull on his body. Although he could still cut through them, his speed was continuously being affected.

How could this be? Wasn’t she merely an immature mount dragon?

No, he couldn’t afford to let her keep building momentum. Though Sun Weiping wasn’t clever, his years of battle experience and keen instincts were formidable. Sensing the tide shifting unfavorably, he resolved to unleash his full power without hesitation.
