True killing does not require any flashy fighting; victory or defeat can be decided in an instant.
Just a moment ago, the Shrek Seven still held the upper hand, but now five of them had already fallen, leaving only Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong.
And Ning Rongrong was merely a support-type Spirit Master with no offensive power at all. To Jiang Chen, she was nothing more than a little white rabbit.
Ning Rongrong's screams annoyed Jiang Chen. He pointed a finger at her and said, "Chen Xin, deal with her for me."
Tang San's fingers rapidly tapped around his chest and abdomen, stopping the loss of blood, but the surging, erupting deadly poison inside his body made his heart sink to the bottom.
Over the years, he had been researching how to break Jiang Chen's corpse poison, yet he had found no clues at all.
"Am I really going to die here?" A trace of sorrow involuntarily rose in his heart.
He flipped his palm, took out the detoxifying small sausage Oscar had prepared in advance, and swallowed it, hoping it would have some effect.
Chen Xin, holding his sword, approached Ning Rongrong and Oscar step by step.
Ning Rongrong set Oscar down and threw herself at Chen Xin's feet, hugging his leg.
"Sword Grandpa, it's me, look, it's Rongrong. Don't you recognize me anymore?"
Her voice was extremely mournful. She had already seen that Chen Xin's condition was not right, his eyes were hollow, and there was no emotional fluctuation on his body at all.
The sword Chen Xin had raised hesitated for a moment and did not fall.
Jiang Chen frowned and coldly shouted, "Kill!"
Chen Xin no longer hesitated. The long sword fell mercilessly.
Ning Rongrong closed her eyes. Tears rolled down from beneath her long lashes.
Just then, a patch of Blue Silver Grass suddenly appeared on the ground, binding Chen Xin. A strand of Blue Silver Grass wrapped around Ning Rongrong's slender waist and dragged her out of Chen Xin's attack range.
At the same time, Oscar and the others were also dragged by Blue Silver Grass over to Tang San's side.
Only Xiao Wu was still fighting Qiongqi in the distance.
Xiao Wu's heart was extremely anxious. Tang San's abdomen had been pierced by Jiang Chen, and he was now surrounded by Jiang Chen and those two Title Douluo. Life or death hung in the balance of a single moment.
She had only just broken through to the Title Douluo realm; how could she be a match for Qiongqi?
Facing the spike-covered Qiongqi, none of her close-combat spirit skills could be used at all.
Moreover, Qiongqi's physical strength far surpassed Xiao Wu's, leaving her with not the slightest advantage.
Just as she was about to be bitten by Qiongqi, a mass of golden light suddenly erupted from her body, forming a golden shield.
Qiongqi's sharp teeth bit down on it but failed to pierce through.
Xiao Wu gritted her teeth and activated her teleportation skill, finally returning to Tang San's side.
Only then did Tang San let out a breath of relief. Xiao Wu had not held even the slightest advantage against that enormous monster.
But immediately afterward, his heart grew extremely heavy.
"Xiao Wu, run quickly. Don't worry about us anymore," Tang San pleaded in a low voice.
He knew Xiao Wu could still teleport, and with speed that surpassed most Title Douluo, she might be unable to escape Jiang Chen's clutches.
Jiang Chen turned around, looked at the surrounded Tang San and the others, and said coldly, "Escape? Today, none of you will escape!"
He, Qiongqi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong had already surrounded Tang San and the others. Today, the Shrek Seven Monsters would not escape even if they grew wings.
He had not summoned the Titan Giant Ape or the Sky Blue Bull Python. He firmly believed in the principle that trump cards should not be used up lightly.
The current lineup was already enough to end the lives of Tang San and the others.
Tang San coughed a few times. "Jiang Chen, do you really have to exterminate us completely?"
Jiang Chen gave a light laugh. "Ridiculous. You specifically came to ambush and kill me, and now you're telling me not to exterminate you completely. Is there such a cheap thing in this world?"
Tang San's expression turned desolate. "I never thought that we, who came so confidently, would still die at your hands."
"Jiang Chen, what exactly did you do to my Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa?" Ning Rongrong suddenly shouted.
Jiang Chen glanced at her coldly and said, "They are already dead. They are merely two moving corpses."
"Impossible… how could…" Ning Rongrong sat down hard on the ground.
Oscar's chest had been pierced through. After eating a large recovery sausage, he had recovered a great deal, but he had not fully recovered.
Chen Xin's sword strike had been far too powerful. It not only contained deadly poison but also possessed terrifying sword energy.
The fact that he had not died immediately was already quite good.
Dai Mubai and the others had also eaten the recovery large sausages and detoxifying small sausages Oscar had prepared for them in advance, temporarily preserving their lives.
But the severe injuries inside their bodies could not be recovered from in a short time.
The detoxifying small sausages could only temporarily suppress the corpse poison, but could not eliminate it. Once the sausages' effects wore off, they would still be eroded by the corpse poison.
The most serious was Ma Hongjun. At this moment, he was taking in more breath than he was letting out.
His heart had been pierced by Gu Rong's claws; he was only hanging on by a thread.
Tang San's condition was a bit better than Dai Mubai and the others. His Blue Silver Emperor spirit was skilled at healing to begin with, so he still retained some combat power.
Jiang Chen said coldly, "Die."
The spirit rings on his body lit up one after another. A concentrated corpse poison array appeared beneath the feet of Tang San and the others.
In the sky, countless sharp tombstones smashed down.
Xiao Wu's expression changed. Invincible Golden Body was released once more, blocking the attacks from above for herself and her companions.
But she could not block the poisonous mist on the ground.
Her Invincible Golden Body lasted only three seconds and could resist attacks below the god level.
"Invincible Golden Body… is it truly invincible?" Jiang Chen's gaze flashed. His fourth spirit skill, Corpse Mountain Blood Sea, activated.
This was a spiritual attack skill that directly attacked a person's spirit, acting upon the soul.
Xiao Wu's consciousness was instantly pulled into the illusion of Corpse Mountain Blood Sea.
After this spirit skill had been upgraded to five hundred thousand years, its power had become extremely terrifying.
Within the illusion, countless resentful thoughts formed a raging tide of resentment that madly crashed toward Xiao Wu's mind.
Tang San and the others were likewise enveloped by this skill. Their consciousnesses were pulled into the illusion, enduring that terrifying resentful attack.
Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar immediately rolled their eyes and fainted.
Ning Rongrong lasted less than a single breath before she too fainted to death.
Jiang Chen felt satisfied. Unless something unexpected happened, even if these fellows did not die, they would become idiots.
Xiao Wu's Invincible Golden Body collapsed and could no longer be released. She clutched her head with both hands and rolled on the ground, screaming in agony.
Tang San was the one among the seven with the strongest spiritual power.
Powerful spiritual power meant a powerful soul. He still barely managed to remain conscious.
Enduring the pain in his soul, he forced himself to release a spirit skill. A gigantic Blue Silver Prison rose from the ground, enveloping the seven of them.
This Blue Silver Prison was unexpectedly tough. It withstood one wave of tombstone attacks before dissipating.
The remaining tombstones continued to smash down.
Tang San urged the remaining spirit power in his body and thrust the Sea God's Trident upward.
Bang bang bang bang…
The remaining tombstones all exploded, but dense gray mist had already appeared all around, enveloping the seven of them.
A gray and defeated look appeared on Tang San's face. As the gray mist entered his body, he could feel the vitality within him rapidly draining away.
He no longer had any power to resist.
Xiao Wu could no longer endure the torment of her soul and had already fallen unconscious.
"The curtain falls," Jiang Chen muttered to himself, his mood somewhat complicated.
To think that the Shrek Seven Monsters of the Douluo Continent would die at his hands like this.
His gaze shifted and landed on Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu. Suddenly, appetite rose within him.
He raised both hands. Spirit power surged on them, forming a vortex of energy that sucked Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong over.
He opened his mouth, revealing two sharp fangs, and ruthlessly pierced them into Ning Rongrong's delicate neck.
"Jiang Chen, you dare!" Tang San forced himself to stay conscious and let out a final roar of rage.
Jiang Chen paid him no heed. A moment later, Ning Rongrong's smooth, full skin withered and became covered in wrinkles.
He casually tossed her aside, throwing Ning Rongrong back.
His gaze fell upon Xiao Wu in his hand.
Xiao Wu was held by the collar, her fair, tender neck exposed.
Ning Rongrong's taste had still been a bit lacking, not as delicious as a young girl's. Xiao Wu should still be a pure young girl; her taste ought to be good.
Jiang Chen opened his mouth wide and bit fiercely at Xiao Wu.
"Jiang Chen!" Tang San's eyes nearly split, his body trembling violently.
Just then, the Sea God's Trident tightly gripped in his hand suddenly erupted with an incomparably intense radiance. The blazing blue light made Jiang Chen sense danger.
His heart pounded wildly. He felt an extraordinary pressure.
This pressure was familiar to him. He had felt it back when he had slapped the Sea God's divine sense.
Only this time, the pressure was far more terrifying.
Jiang Chen could not help but retreat and shouted harshly, "Sea God, you dare make a move against a mortal like me?"
"Relax, he doesn't dare make a move." The Asura God's voice rang out in Jiang Chen's mind.
Jiang Chen still did not dare relax. His entire body tensed up.
He had not yet truly experienced the power of a god. If the other side truly dared to act against him, a single thought might be enough to make him die on the spot.
The pressure radiating from the trident grew more and more terrifying. Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and Qiongqi were all forced to retreat.
Jiang Chen, who was very familiar with Heavenly Might, naturally did not fear this kind of pressure. He was only worried that the Sea God would act against him, which was why he retreated.
At the same time, he called out in his heart, "Senior, the Sea God is being so arrogant. Aren't you going to do something?"
The Asura God's voice finally rang out: "Sea God, you dare interfere in the affairs of the mortal world?"
The instant the Asura God's voice rang out, six more terrifying auras appeared within that dense blue light.
Jiang Chen's heart was filled with shock. He suddenly felt a strong crisis of life and death.
His feet could not help but begin to retreat; he wanted to flee this place.
Compared to the lives of Tang San and the others, his own life was more important.
The Shrek group would be crippled even if they did not die. There was no need for him to risk his own life. After all, those were god-level powerhouses, beings he still had to look up to at present.
"Not good, they want to rescue Tang San. Jiang Chen, kill Tang San quickly!" The Asura God's urgent voice rang out in Jiang Chen's mind.
What am I supposed to use to make a move? Those are gods… Jiang Chen was just about to speak when the Asura God continued, "Use the Asura Sword."
Jiang Chen understood. With a thought, the Asura Sword appeared in his hand. All the spirit power in his body boiled and surged toward the Asura Sword at extreme speed.
In an instant, an incomparably intense blood-colored radiance erupted from the Asura Sword, forcing the blue light surrounding Tang San and the others to rapidly shrink back.
"Forget it!" Jiang Chen roared in his heart and swung the blood-colored greatsword toward Tang San.
The blue light was broken open. Jiang Chen saw the blood-colored sword energy flying from the Asura Sword pierce through Tang San's body.
Just then, the blue light erupted violently and finally transformed into a gigantic pillar of light that shot off into the distance at high speed.
Jiang Chen's heart stirred. It seemed the Sea God truly did not dare touch him. That blue pillar of light merely wrapped around Tang San and the others and fled at high speed.
Jiang Chen's third spirit ring lit up. He teleported to the side of Tang San, who no longer knew whether he was dead or alive, and swung his sword again.
This time, the Sea God's Trident flew up from Tang San's hand and blocked Jiang Chen's strike.
Jiang Chen sighed and landed with some regret.
The spirit power in his body had already been exhausted; he could no longer use his teleportation spirit skill.
And that blue pillar of light was flying much faster than him; there was simply no way to catch up.
"Senior, the Sea God has already interfered in the affairs of the mortal world. Why didn't you make a move just now?" Jiang Chen asked in puzzlement.
He was not angry. Through today's battle, he had come to understand that the Shrek Seven Monsters were nothing more than this.
He had already completed the second trial and would soon become a Title Douluo. Coupled with the reward the Asura God would give him, his strength would undergo a leap in improvement.
Unless the Shrek Seven all became gods, they would have no chance of threatening him.
But was that possible?
Dai Mubai and the others had suffered soul injuries under his spirit skill; there was a high probability they would become idiots.
Even if they did not become idiots, they were probably crippled.
There was also Tang San. In the end he had taken a strike from the Asura Sword; it was unknown whether he was dead or not.
The Asura God said, "Their goal was only to save the life of their own inheritor. They did not make a move against you. Moreover, the seven of them descended upon their inheritors at the same time. I was unable to stop their departure, so I could only have you kill Tang San."
Jiang Chen understood. The Sea God and the others, constrained by the rules, did not dare kill him. The Asura God likewise could not kill Tang San, yet he could not stop them from escaping, so he could only remind Jiang Chen to make a move.
"Senior, did that strike of mine just now kill Tang San?" Jiang Chen asked.
Before the blue pillar of light disappeared, Jiang Chen had only sensed Tang San's life aura rapidly weakening. Later the distance became too great and he could no longer sense it.
The Asura God said, "No. Those fellows of the Sea God preserved Tang San's life. Although they did not make a move against you, saving Tang San counts as violating the rules of the God Realm. Coupled with their excessive rewards, this time I will make them suffer the most severe sanctions.
"I am going to find the Evil God King right now to convene a meeting and put the Sea God on trial. As for the reward for your second trial, I will contact you once I have prepared it."
Hearing that the Asura God was about to leave, Jiang Chen hurriedly asked, "Senior, I want to attack Sea God Island. There's no problem with that, right?"
The Asura God said, "This is a grudge between you mortals. What problem could there be? Rest assured. If the Sea God truly dares to make a move against you, I will slaughter him on the spot. The God Realm will not be short one of him."
Jiang Chen relaxed. According to the Asura God's words, he need not worry about threats from the Sea God and those others.
After some more time, once he became a Title Douluo, he would go sweep Sea God Island clean.
Did they really think Jiang Chen was a soft persimmon that could be kneaded at will?
"Sea God, and those other gods… once I ascend to the God Realm, it will be your doomsday!" Jiang Chen secretly swore in his heart.
Once he ascended to the God Realm, he would definitely kill those fellows. Whoever stood in the way would die.
