Having made up his mind, Davis immediately advanced toward the Lake of Life. Thanks to the cover of the Vast Sea Barrier, the clashing parties of Tang Hao and Bibi Dong failed to notice their presence.
The group quickly bypassed the Spirit Hall's hunting squad and arrived at the Lake of Life. This wasn't Davis's first time here, so he was quite familiar with the way.
In less than an hour, they appeared by the lakeside. At this moment, the Lake of Life was a picture of tranquility, surrounded by lush green grass and drifting flower petals.
*Ice-Fire Evil Eyes!*
Davis funneled soul power into his eyes and immediately peered toward the bottom of the lake. He saw a terrifying, gargantuan creature lurking within the waters, resembling the world-encircling serpent of myth.
Covered in cyan-blue scales with a massive horn atop its head, it looked exactly like a majestic bull with a serpentine body as thick as a water vat, stretching nearly twenty meters in length.
"Azure Sky Bull Python!"
Davis called out its name. Currently, the Azure Sky Bull Python was resting within the Lake of Life; the battle between Tang Hao and Bibi Dong had not yet disturbed it.
"In a moment, we will head out and use our Spirit Fusion Skill to quickly restrain the Azure Sky Bull Python. Then, Nana!"
At this point, Davis suddenly turned to look at Anna and continued, "You stay hidden within the Vast Sea Barrier. Once we have the Azure Sky Bull Python under control, strike immediately and kill it with the Sea God's Trident. Do you understand?"
"Brother, I understand!" Anna's gaze sharpened, her eyes flashing with endless battle intent and killing intent. With a thought, a magnificent trident appeared in her delicate hands, radiating a thick divine aura. Davis and the other two looked on with envy—this was a true Divine Tool!
Although the Sea God was only a first-class Chief God, this Sea God's Trident was hardly inferior even to the Asura God's Asura Blood Sword.
Withdrawing his gaze from the trident, Davis made a split-second decision: "Good. Zhuyun, Zhuqing, let's go!"
As soon as he spoke, the three stepped out of the barrier together. Their auras were instantly exposed—especially the invisible Beast King aura emanating from Davis, which was sensed by the Azure Sky Bull Python the moment it appeared.
This was the person who had killed its brother, the Titan Giant Ape. The Azure Sky Bull Python would never forget him as long as it lived.
Thus, the instant Davis appeared, the Azure Sky Bull Python's rage soared to the heavens. A fierce, murderous aura rushed at them. The originally calm Lake of Life suddenly erupted into crashing waves and turbulent foam; a massive amount of lake water surged to the feet of Davis's trio, submerging their shins.
"ROAR—"
A terrifying roar echoed through the clouds. The moment the roar sounded, the Azure Sky Bull Python's massive head appeared right before them.
Seeing this, Davis's heart sank slightly, but he remained calm as he said, "The Azure Sky Bull Python is coming out. Let's move."
"Right!"
The two women spoke in unison. Then, the three of them simultaneously released their Spirit Avatars. Seven-colored radiant light soared into the sky, transforming into a dazzling pillar of light that connected heaven and earth.
The light pillar came and went quickly. In an instant, the radiance dissipated, replaced by a twenty-meter-long, pitch-black *Star Luo Holy Tiger*!
A black tiger—the polar opposite of the White Tiger!
The moment the Star Luo Holy Tiger appeared, a kingly aura instantly enveloped the entire Lake of Life, even overwhelming the Azure Sky Bull Python's murderous intent with destructive force, as if all things in the world should bow before it.
"ROAR—"
"It's you humans again! You're the one who killed Er Ming! You killed my brother!"
"That's right, it was me!" Davis's voice echoed from the mouth of the Star Luo Holy Tiger. "So now it's your turn. Don't worry, I'll make it quick. I won't let you suffer!"
"You dream of killing me! *Slow Domain!*"
"Soul Bone Skill: *Gravity Quagmire!*"
Almost simultaneously, both sides struck. Davis immediately funneled soul power into his soul bone, while the Azure Sky Bull Python activated its innate domain, sending invisible ripples spreading horizontally.
At the same time, an invisible pressure descended vertically from the sky, completely enveloping the Azure Sky Bull Python!
"This is Er Ming's skill! You bastard! Today I will tear you into ten thousand pieces to avenge Er Ming!"
The Azure Sky Bull Python swung its body, suddenly raising its tail—which was thicker than a water vat—and slamming it directly toward the Star Luo Holy Tiger's face. Unfortunately, within Davis's Gravity Quagmire and under the influence of fifty times gravity, the Azure Sky Bull Python's speed became incredibly slow.
However, this tail swipe descending from above still carried immense weight, striking with the momentum of overturning mountains and seas.
"Come at me! *Third Soul Skill: White Tiger Vajra Transformation!*"
The third soul ring flashed. The Star Luo Holy Tiger's speed and strength doubled. It then abruptly raised a razor-sharp tiger claw and snatched the Azure Sky Bull Python's thick tail in a firm grip.
As the cultivation of the three grew stronger, the size of this Star Luo Holy Tiger had also surpassed its previous forms, with attributes like strength and speed greatly enhanced.
Although they were within the Azure Sky Bull Python's Slow Domain, the Python was also trapped in the Gravity Quagmire. The two effects essentially cancelled each other out; regardless, everyone was slower.
In fact, after Davis used the White Tiger Vajra Transformation to boost the tiger's attributes, the Star Luo Holy Tiger's speed was actually superior.
Having caught the tail, the Star Luo Holy Tiger pressed its advantage. One paw pinned the tail down while the other claw lunged toward the Azure Sky Bull Python's "seven-inch" spot with unstoppable momentum.
As the saying goes, to kill a snake, strike at the seven-inch mark. This area was also a weakness for the Azure Sky Bull Python. Of course, he would control his strength; he wouldn't truly kill the Python yet, but he would render it unable to move.
The already sharp tiger claws were suddenly reinforced by an alloy-like talon—Davis's External Soul Bone.
Now that Davis was a Titled Douluo, this Dark Golden Dreadclaw Bear External Soul Bone had already evolved into a true hundred-thousand-year soul bone.
As a super soul beast, a hundred-thousand-year Dark Golden Dreadclaw Bear was hardly inferior to an average million-year soul beast. One could imagine just how sharp this claw was now.
"Stay down for me! Hah!"
The Star Luo Holy Tiger slammed its paw down, the Dark Golden Dreadclaws thrusting out like spears! The strike was fast, accurate, and ruthless. Before the Azure Sky Bull Python could react, the claws had driven straight through.
"AHHH—"
In an instant, a pained roar erupted from the Azure Sky Bull Python. The Dark Golden Dreadclaws had pierced through its seven-inch mark and were firmly embedded in the ground!
A horrific bloody hole appeared at the Python's vitals, making one shudder. Blood splashed onto the Star Luo Holy Tiger's face.
If it wished, the Star Luo Holy Tiger could have torn the Azure Sky Bull Python into two segments right then and there!
"Ah! You bastard..." Just then, the Azure Sky Bull Python suddenly opened its bloody maw toward them, roaring in fury. Boundless soul power condensed in its mouth, and in a flash, thunder rolled and lightning flashed!
"Azure Sky Sky-Quaking Thunder... Nana! Now! Don't let it attack!"
"I'm here! Behold my *Thirteen Golden Halberds!*"
Suddenly, Anna charged out of the barrier, wielding the Sea God's Trident and slashing directly toward the Azure Sky Bull Python.
After pulling out the Sea God's Trident, Anna had likewise comprehended the Sea God's self-created Divine Skill: The Thirteen Golden Halberds!
