It was a young girl who looked to be no more than in her teens, wearing a sweet smile on her face, skipping forward with alternating steps.
However, to be able to appear within this gray mist, she could by no means be just an ordinary girl.
Han Tianyi stared fixedly at this girl, his brows knitted so tightly they almost formed a knot.
He wanted to probe the depths of her cultivation, but when his mental force touched the girl, it was swallowed up completely, like a clay ox entering the sea, without even a ripple to be detected.
The strength of this girl was likely at least that of a Super Douluo at the same level as him.
In order to kill Huo Yuhao, the Holy Spirit Cult had actually dispatched three top-tier experts to surround and kill him together.
Such a lineup, let alone killing a fifteen-year-old boy, would be enough even to assassinate the Star Luo Emperor.
A deep sense of despair surged from the bottom of his heart like a cold tide, almost drowning him entirely.
Just as he was racking his brains but could not think of any way to break the situation, Huo Yuhao's voice suddenly echoed in his Spiritual Sea.
"Teacher, stall for time. Although this Domain is strange, it is absolutely impossible for it to completely isolate perception from the outside world."
"This is Star Luo City. As long as the experts of Star Luo discover the anomaly here, we will be saved."
Upon hearing this, the eyes of Han Tianyi, which had just been shrouded in despair, instantly lit up again, and he secretly thought to himself that he had truly been blinded by concern.
Stalling for time was indeed the only way for now, but the problem was, facing those three powerful Evil Soul Masters opposite him, how long could he hold out?
Before he could suppress this worry, Huo Yuhao sent another message: "Teacher, focus on dealing with the other two. Leave this Pluto Douluo to me."
Han Tianyi turned his head abruptly, staring straight at his Disciple with wide eyes, thinking he had misheard.
However, all he saw was the gravity and seriousness on Huo Yuhao's face.
This time, Huo Yuhao did not use telepathy, but spoke directly: "Teacher, trust me."
Han Tianyi gritted his teeth and finally nodded heavily. He believed that his precious Disciple would never act recklessly at such a life-or-death moment.
Although he could not understand what trump card Huo Yuhao had to contend with a Limit Douluo who had been famous for a hundred years, he had no other choice now but to take a gamble.
A dazzling light suddenly erupted from Han Tianyi's body, and his four-word battle armor covered his entire body in an instant.
At the same time, his sixth spirit ring lit up violently, and a silent Spiritual Impact shot towards Leng Yulai.
His idea was very direct: among the three, Leng Yulai had the weakest cultivation. Only by resolving the weakest, Leng Yulai, at the fastest speed could he buy a sliver of breathing room for the subsequent stalling.
However, just as that Spiritual Impact was about to hit Leng Yulai, a strange ringing sound rang out in the gray space without any warning.
The ringing was not harsh; instead, it carried a decadent sound that made one drowsy. The Spirit Ability that Han Tianyi was about to activate was instantly interrupted.
Han Tianyi turned his head abruptly, only to see that the girl who made him feel wary was now fully armed.
A set of dark green four-word battle armor wrapped her petite body tightly. Strange dark golden patterns flowed on the surface of the battle armor, emitting a cold, eerie light in the gray mist.
Above her head hung a huge bell with a diameter of over one meter. The bell was pitch black as ink, and its surface was covered with dense, strange runes.
As it slowly rotated, a visible dark green sound wave spread outwards in circles like ripples on the water surface.
This girl was named Nana, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult, with the Spirit Dark Bell and a cultivation of a rank 98 Super Douluo.
Her Spirit was an extremely rare Mental-type mutated Spirit, possessing both Mental-type attack and sound wave attack characteristics. Its lethality in group battles even exceeded that of many Limit Douluo.
Han Tianyi stared fixedly at the slowly rotating Dark Bell, his old eyes full of gravity.
The opponent was also Mental-type; this could not be a coincidence. The Holy Spirit Cult had come prepared this time, specifically sending a Mental-type expert capable of contending with his Brain Spirit.
With Nana watching like a tiger eyeing its prey, Han Tianyi's plan to launch a surprise attack on Leng Yulai for a quick victory was doomed to fail.
With Han Tianyi fighting two at once, the next part would likely be a protracted battle, and it would be hard to determine the winner in a short time.
On the other side, Pluto Douluo Harosa looked with interest at the boy in front of him who had not shown a shred of fear from beginning to end.
He had lived for so long and had killed countless Geniuses. Those so-called young talents were all pale-faced and weak-kneed in front of him, and some were even spineless cowards who knelt and begged for mercy.
But Huo Yuhao was an exception. His eyes were as calm as two pools of bottomless cold water, with neither fear nor panic.
A trace of curiosity rose in Pluto Douluo Harosa's heart. Did this kid not know what fear was, or did he really have some trump card that could contend with him?
In the Spiritual Sea, Electrolux's old and steady voice sounded again: "Yuhao, fight as you wish. With me here, even if you are not his opponent, it will be no problem to ensure your safety."
Just at the moment when Pluto Douluo Harosa unleashed the Netherworld Rebirth Domain, Electrolux had already prepared to possess him for battle.
However, this time, Huo Yuhao unexpectedly refused him.
He wanted to try it himself to see what level his true strength could reach if he went all out without reservation. He wanted to see how far he still was from a Limit Douluo.
A dazzling white light flashed, and pieces of battle armor instantly covered Huo Yuhao's entire body. The silver-white battle armor was interwoven with purple and blue patterns, looking exceptionally gorgeous.
A pair of huge silver wings behind him unfolded with a boom. The edges of the wing blades gleamed with a biting cold light, and with a gentle flap, they lifted him off the ground, hovering steadily in mid-air.
At the same time, a golden ring suddenly appeared beneath his feet, spreading from the soles of his feet and gradually expanding to a diameter of about three meters before slowly stopping.
This was obviously not his spirit ring; it was the Domain aura that came with the Three-Word Battle Armor.
That's right, the battle armor on Huo Yuhao now had been upgraded to three words!
Following that, spirit rings rose one by one from beneath his feet.
Six black and one red, seven spirit rings slowly pulsed around his body.
Those six Ten Thousand Years spirit rings were pitch black like ink, and their surfaces faintly shimmered with an indistinct, eerie light. Obviously, their age all exceeded seventy thousand years!
His Spirit Power had now reached rank 79, only one step away from a rank 80 Spirit Douluo.
Pluto Douluo Harosa raised an eyebrow slightly, quickly recalling all the information about Huo Yuhao in his mind.
Fifteen years old, seven-ring Spirit Saint, mental force at Spirit Domain Realm, comprehended Spirit Domain, Three-Word Battle Armor Master.
Even he, the Pluto Douluo who once made the entire continent terrified, had to admit that in terms of talent, he had indeed been surpassed by this junior, and he finally understood why Qiangu Dongfeng wanted to kill him.
Although Pluto Douluo Harosa had come specifically to take Huo Yuhao's life on this trip, at this moment, perhaps because he relied on his status as a Limit Douluo, he did not strike directly when facing a fifteen-year-old junior.
He just stood there holding that slender Pluto Sword, waiting leisurely, with a hint of mockery and playfulness in his gray eyes, which actually gave Huo Yuhao a rare opportunity to strike first.
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and did not rush to unleash the battle armor Domain or the Space-Time Annihilation Domain.
He knew very well that in front of a Limit Douluo like Pluto Douluo Harosa, those Domains could not do anything to him at all; instead, they would waste his Spirit Power and mental force in vain.
Rather than spreading out with flashy moves, it was better to concentrate all his power on one point and deliver the strongest blow.
The seventh spirit ring beneath his feet suddenly lit up, and that blood-red hundred-thousand-year spirit ring bloomed with a dazzling and bewitching light in the gray space.
A huge vertical eye over several dozen meters tall suddenly appeared behind Huo Yuhao. The vertical eye was flowing with brilliant golden light, and around the vertical eye was a circle of magnificent and complex rose-gold sun patterns.
This was the strongest form of Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eyes Martial Soul, and also the attack with the greatest power he could currently unleash.
Martial Soul True Body plus the secondary Awakening of the Body Martial Soul at the gold level could unleash at least two hundred percent of its power!
A golden beam of light with a diameter of several meters shot out from that huge vertical eye with a boom. Wherever the beam passed, fine black cracks constantly burst out in the air; those were the traces of space itself being torn apart.
