Chapter 134: The Arena Appears, The Great Battle Begins!
In every corner of the Douluo Continent, countless Soul Masters were staring intently at the heavenly curtain.
Above the heavenly curtain.
Blood-colored light converged into a giant transparent shield.
Inside the shield!
A huge arena, measuring a thousand miles across, floated in the Void Realm.
The arena was constructed of unknown black rock, covered in ancient runes, emitting a powerful Restriction force.
The figures of Xiong Jun and Lü Bu suddenly appeared at opposite ends of the arena.
Xiong Jun had transformed into human form, appearing as a muscular man over three meters tall, his skin dark gold.
His fingernails were like sharp claws, gleaming with cold light, and a violent Aura rushed forth.
Lü Bu, meanwhile, wore silver armor, held his sky piercer halberd, stood tall and straight, and had eyes as sharp as an eagle's.
The seven black and two red Soul Rings on his body rotated slowly.
His Killing Intent condensed into a tangible form, creating a visible black wave of Qi that swirled around him.
"Human brat, you're the one who stole my ranking?"
Xiong Jun roared, his voice filled with malevolence.
"Today, I'll show you what true combat power is!"
Lü Bu curled his lip into a cold smile, pointing his sky piercer halberd directly at Xiong Jun: "Noisy! If you dare to question the heavenly curtain ranking, you must have the courage to face the consequences."
"Enough talk, make your move!"
"You're courting death!"
Xiong Jun roared in anger.
He stomped his foot, and his body shot toward Lü Bu like a cannonball.
His speed was incredible, leaving trails of afterimages.
At the same time, his Dark Gold Terror Claws expanded drastically, rushing toward Lü Bu's head with a sharp whistle that tore through space.
"Good timing!"
A flash of Battle Intent appeared in Lü Bu's eyes, and instead of retreating, he advanced.
Holding his sky piercer halberd, he swung it fiercely.
A black current of Qi, containing the characteristic of "Defense Negation," whistled out.
It met Xiong Jun's Dark Gold Terror Claws head-on.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal striking metal echoed through the heavens and earth; the black Qi current and the Dark Gold Terror Claws collided, unleashing a terrifying energy shockwave.
The black rock of the arena was shattered by the impact, sending countless fragments flying.
Xiong Jun felt a powerful force transfer through his claws, making his arms go numb.
His body involuntarily staggered back several steps.
He was startled, realizing Lü Bu's attack power was terrifyingly high.
"Your claws are quite tough."
Lü Bu smiled faintly, a hint of admiration in his tone.
"However, in front of my sky piercer halberd, all defense is futile!"
Before he finished speaking.
Lü Bu's figure flashed, turning into a silver bolt of lightning, and rushed toward Xiong Jun again.
The sky piercer halberd danced like a torrential storm.
Black currents of Qi crisscrossed, blocking all of Xiong Jun's possible escape routes.
Xiong Jun dared not be careless.
The power of Ultimate Gold fully erupted, and the Dark Gold Terror Claws continuously swung to fend off Lü Bu's attacks.
"Clang, clang, clang!"
The sounds of collision were incessant, and sparks flew everywhere on the arena floor.
Energy shockwaves layered upon one another, causing the entire transparent shield to tremble slightly.
Countless Soul Masters across the Douluo Continent watched without blinking.
Their faces were filled with excitement and shock.
"So strong! This is too spectacular!"
"Xiong Jun's Dark Gold Terror Claws truly live up to their reputation; they can actually block Lü Bu's sky piercer halberd!"
"Lü Bu is too amazing! With ninety-seventh rank Soul Power, he can actually suppress a 490,000-year Ferocious beast!"
"The 'Defense Negation' characteristic is too Heaven-Defying; even with Xiong Jun's strong Physical Body defense, he is being forced back step by step!"
Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin stared intently at the battle on the heavenly curtain, his eyes filled with fervor.
He could tell that Lü Bu's Halberd Technique was fierce and overbearing, every move deadly and filled with the intent to slay.
Xiong Jun's attacks, conversely, were violent and direct, relying on his powerful Physical Body and sharp claws to engage Lü Bu in a desperate fight.
"This is true combat!"
Chen Xin murmured to himself.
"The Dao of the Sword requires not only Sword Intent, but also Battle Intent that charges forward without hesitation!"
Xiong Jun failed to break through after a long attack.
Instead, he was repeatedly pierced through his defense by Lü Bu's sky piercer halberd, gaining several new wounds on his body.
As one of the Dominators of the Star Dou Great Forest, when had it ever suffered such humiliation?
Rage completely drowned out its reason.
"Human! You have completely enraged me! Die!"
"Dark Gold Rending Claw!"
Xiong Jun roared toward the sky and transformed into his true form.
The ancient Bloodline Power belonging to the Behemoth Giant Beast was completely unleashed!
The Ultimate Gold attribute condensed to its Peak.
The space around his claws was no longer just distorted; it began to shatter inch by inch like fragile glass.
This strike contained the essence of nearly 500,000 years of his cultivation—it was one of his ultimate trump cards.
It was truly capable of tearing space apart and completely shredding the opponent!
"Hmm?"
The moment Xiong Jun began gathering power, Lü Bu felt a sense of fatal crisis rushing toward him.
He knew that ordinary Spirit Abilities would likely be unable to completely withstand this space-tearing strike.
"Heh... now this is getting interesting."
Not only did Lü Bu show no fear.
But a wild and strange smile appeared on his lips—the excitement of meeting a powerful enemy.
"Perfect. I'll use you to test the new power granted by the heavenly curtain!"
Facing the Dark Gold Terror Claws, which were capable of tearing apart heaven and earth and annihilating space, Lü Bu chose not to meet the attack head-on.
He abruptly slammed his sky piercer halberd beside him, embedding it into the arena floor.
"Asura God Domain—Activate!"
Boom!
An Aura far more terrifying, profound, and despair-inducing than the Slaughter God Domain.
Suddenly erupted, centered on Lü Bu!
It was no longer blood-red Killing Intent, but a dark red, nearly black Domain power, seemingly condensed from all the slaughter and judgment will in the world!
The dark red light curtain instantly enveloped the entire Endless Arena, encompassing Xiong Jun as well.
The moment the "Asura God Domain" descended.
Xiong Jun's heaven-shaking Aura suddenly stalled!
"How is this possible!"
It discovered in horror that the boiling Soul Power, the burning Bloodline Power, and even the frantic Battle Intent and Killing Intent within its body.
Were all flowing out uncontrollably, as if encountering an invisible black hole.
They were being greedily absorbed by the dark red Domain!
Even more terrifyingly, a coldness and fear originating from the depths of its Soul began to spread.
It was as if a pair of supreme eyes were coldly judging its sins and stripping away its vitality!
"This... what kind of Domain is this? My power... my will!"
Xiong Jun was utterly terrified.
It felt as if it had fallen into a boundless, bloody swamp.
The more it struggled, the deeper it sank.
The faster its power drained away.
Its Dark Gold Terror Claws, which were originally capable of tearing space, had their light dimmed because their power was constantly being extracted and suppressed by the Domain.
In contrast, Lü Bu.
Standing in the center of the Asura God Domain, he seemed to have become the Incarnation of the Divinity who commanded slaughter and judgment.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"
Dark red energy surged into his body like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.
His exhaustion from the previous fight was instantly replenished, and his Aura climbed steadily, reaching an unprecedented Peak!
"Within my Domain, I am the Dominator!"
"Your power is nothing more than my sustenance!"
Lü Bu's voice became cold and majestic, echoing throughout the Domain.
He slowly pulled the sky piercer halberd out of the ground.
Dark red Asura Power was Binding around the halberd shaft, and the "Defense Negation" characteristic seemed to have achieved the ultimate sublimation.
Carrying an essence capable of breaking all laws and judging everything.
"Ninth Spirit Ability: Peerless God-Ghost: Asura Slash!"
Lü Bu gripped the halberd with both hands, his entire being merging with the sky piercer halberd, transforming into a dark red streak of light that spanned the Domain!
This halberd strike was no longer a simple physical attack; it contained the Rule Power of the Asura God Domain, which stripped vitality and judged the Soul!
Its speed seemed unremarkable, yet it felt as if it had locked onto space and time.
Making it impossible for Xiong Jun, suppressed within the Domain, to dodge!
"No!"
Xiong Jun let out a desperate and unwilling roar.
It exhausted its last strength, crossing its weakened Dark Gold Terror Claws in front of its body.
The light of Ultimate Gold flashed wildly, attempting a final resistance.
"Hiss!"
The dark red halberd radiance easily pierced through the Dark Gold Terror Claws that were capable of tearing space.
It penetrated Xiong Jun's proud Ultimate Gold defense, ultimately sweeping across its massive body!
Lü Bu's figure appeared behind Xiong Jun, standing upright with his halberd.
The dark red Asura God Domain slowly retracted.
Xiong Jun stood frozen in place, its massive pupils filled with confusion and disbelief.
A thin, dark red line stretched from its forehead all the way down to its lower abdomen.
Immediately afterward, immense vitality poured out from that line like a breached floodgate.
"Rumble!"
The massive body of the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear heavily smashed onto the arena, kicking up dust everywhere.
It didn't die!
The heavenly curtain's rules protected its life, but its Aura was extremely weak.
Both its Soul and Physical Body had suffered heavy damage.
The battle concluded!
The entire Douluo Continent once again fell into a deathly silence.
If Lü Bu's suppression of Xiong Jun earlier was a thrilling and dangerous fight.
Then Lü Bu, after activating the "Asura God Domain," displayed a dominance that was nearly crushing!
That Domain power, capable of stripping vitality and judging the Soul.
Caused all spectators!
Including the Peak Limit Douluo and Ferocious beasts, to feel a chill deep in their hearts!
"What... what kind of Domain was that?"
"It's too terrifying! Xiong Jun had absolutely no power to fight back against him!"
"Big Dipper Academy... just how many trump cards do they still have?"
Star Dou Great Forest.
The faces of Di Tian and the others were extremely grim.
They were not only shocked by the terrifying Domain Lü Bu suddenly displayed.
But also alarmed by the consequences of Xiong Jun's Origin being damaged.
Right at this moment!
The transparent shield on the heavenly curtain slowly dissipated.
Two blood-colored beams of light shot out again, teleporting the figures of Lü Bu and Xiong Jun back to their original locations.
At the same time, a line of text appeared on the heavenly curtain.
[Endless Arena duel concluded! Lü Bu wins!]
[Lü Bu receives double rewards!]
[Xiong Jun's reward is canceled!]
"Lü Bu won!"
"As expected of a powerhouse from Big Dipper Academy! With ninety-seventh rank Soul Power, he actually defeated a 490,000-year Ferocious beast!"
"Xiong Jun is miserable; not only did he lose his reward, but he also suffered such severe injuries!"
"This 'Endless Arena' is indeed fair and just; losing means paying the price!"
The Douluo Continent erupted into fervor once more.
Everyone was deeply shaken by Lü Bu's strength.
At the same time, they felt awe toward the rules of the "Endless Arena."
Inside Big Dipper Academy.
Lü Bu felt the surging power within him and the double rewards granted by the heavenly curtain, a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.
He cupped his hands toward Lu Xiao and said: "Academy Head, I have fulfilled the mission!"
Lu Xiao smiled faintly: "Not bad."
Lü Bu nodded, casting his gaze back toward the heavenly curtain, his eyes filled with Battle Intent.
He knew!
The competition for the Combat Power Ranking had just begun.
The blood-colored light on the heavenly curtain did not cease; instead, it grew even denser.
The duel between Xiong Jun and Lü Bu was only the beginning; even stronger existences were yet to come.
Countless Soul Masters were staring intently at the heavenly curtain, their hearts filled with anticipation and nervousness.
They knew.
The rankings announced next would be even more shocking and terrifying!
