Douluo 2: Lord of the Gods.

Chapter 372: Returning to the Ice Temple, Mu Wu vs. Xuan Zi, Dark Taotie Reappears
The scenery of the north is covered with ice for thousands of miles.

The north wind howled, blowing snow all over the city.

In a hotel, Su Yu stood on the balcony, looking down at the pedestrians who were struggling to move forward in the wind and snow.

This place is a small town on the border of the Tianhun Empire. Because it is close to the extreme north, it is surrounded by wind and snow all year round.

Therefore, it is often called the City of Snow and Wind.

The snow was getting heavier, and the heavy snow slowly fell into Su Yu's palm.

The pure white and crystal snowflakes lay quietly in Su Yu's palm, like an exquisite work of art.

Xue Di walked to Su Yu's side without him knowing and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.

Both of them were wearing thin clothes, which made them stand out in the snow.

"What's so good about this? Haven't you had enough of the snow and wind in the Far North?"

Xue Di glanced at Su Yu and complained.

Su Yu gently blew the snowflakes in his palm, and his starry eyes sparkled.

"This is different."

Su Yu looked at the people walking with difficulty below and sighed: "The snow in the far north is just dead and cold snow."

“But I see something different in the snow here.”

"What's different?"

Xue Di was puzzled.

Su Yu smiled gently and said, "I have seen the resistance and perseverance of human beings. Although they are born weak, they never admit defeat."

Hearing this, Xue Di was slightly stunned, as if thinking about something.

Su Yu put his hands behind his back and looked across the sky. Suddenly, a burst of white light caught his attention.

The white light flew rapidly towards where he was, rampant in the snow and wind.

"Shh!"

Accompanied by a sound of breaking through the air, a middle-aged man in a blue robe appeared on the spot.

He knelt on one knee and saluted Su Yu respectfully, "Your subordinate greets the young master."

Su Yu glanced at the man in front of him and found that he was also one of the spies under the Ice Temple.

"What's the matter?"

Su Yu spoke calmly.

"The Second Guardian has a letter, please read it, young master."

The middle-aged man handed over a letter and raised his hands above his head.

Su Yu took it casually, opened the envelope, and pulled out a thin piece of paper.

Su Yu glanced over the entire article, his eyes flickering slightly.

"Have you got the embryo?"

"Ok?"

"There is indeed something unusual happening in the Holy Spirit Church."

Su Yu muttered to himself, and then his eyes shot towards the middle-aged man, "Where is the Great Guardian now?"

Another figure emerged from the darkness and also knelt on the ground.

"Young Master, the Great Guardian has found Xuan Zi and has gone to subdue him."

It was obvious that this person was left behind by Mu Wu to report on his work at all times.

Su Yu frowned slightly. Did they find Xuanzi's trace so quickly?
"Where does Xuanzi appear?"

Su Yu asked.

"Young Master, Xuan Zi once appeared in the Tianduan Mountains."

"Tian Duan Mountains?"

After a moment's silence, Su Yu called out softly, "Ebi."

Hai Bodong's figure suddenly appeared.

"Little Lord."

Su Yu looked at Hai Bodong and said softly, "Old Hai, thank you for going to the Tianduan Mountains. The Holy Spirit Cult is ready to make a move. I'm afraid something might happen to Senior Mu Wu."

Hai Bodong was stunned and asked, "Can anyone from the Holy Spirit Cult hurt Mu Wu?"

Su Yu nodded and said, "Yes, and there is more than one. You have seen one of them in Mingdu before."

"You mean that guy?"

"If it's him, it would be really difficult for Muwu to deal with it now."

Hai Bodong also became serious after hearing this.

Since he came to Douluo Continent, that guy is the strongest human being he has ever seen.

Although he is not as good as him, he is currently far better than Muwu.

"It's not certain whether that guy will take action, but for Senior Muwu's safety, I have to trouble you to make a trip."

Su Yu said in a deep voice.

Hai Bodong hesitated and said, "If I leave, what will you do if there is no one around you, young master?"

"Your Excellency the Ice Emperor, just go ahead. I will be there to protect the young master."

Chen Xin's figure suddenly appeared, with his silver hair combed meticulously and a sword-like aura on his body.

Hai Bodong glanced at Chen Xin and said calmly: "You can't."

Chen Xin: "..."

Hai Bodong's undisguised disdain made Chen Xin's mouth twitch. Is he that bad?

"Don't worry, Hai Lao, go ahead. I will take Xue'er back to the Ice Temple immediately. There will be no danger."

Su Yu comforted.

"In this case, I can go on this journey with peace of mind."

Hai Bodong bowed to Su Yu, and then disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The sudden news made Su Yu lose interest.

He patted the snowflakes off his body, and a faint voice slowly sounded.

"Pack everything and follow me back to the Ice Temple."

"Yes!"

Several respectful voices sounded at the same time.

……

……

Tianduan Mountains.

Tianduan Mountain is located at the border between the Tianhun Empire and the Xingluo Empire.

Although it is not as heavily guarded and heavily armed as the Mingdou Mountains.

But for countless years, the armies of both sides could often be seen here.

Tianduan Mountain stretches for nearly a hundred miles from front to back. It is not very large, but there are a small number of soul beasts living there.

Due to its special geographical location, neither the Tianhun Empire nor the Xingluo Empire would come here to hunt soul beasts.

Over time, the soul beast resources here have not been hit, but have been slowly increasing.

The space shook, and Mu Wu's figure suddenly appeared.

He stood in mid-air, his majestic face filled with a murderous aura.

According to the information previously received, Xuanzi hid in the Tianduan Mountains after slaughtering several villages.

Mu Wu stood proudly on the clouds, looking down at the Tianduan Mountain which stretched for hundreds of miles.

Tianduan Mountain is covered with dense and lush vegetation. There is thick fog and abundant water vapor in the mountains. It looks peaceful and there seems to be nothing unusual.

Mu Wu frowned slightly, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and then his powerful mental power instantly spread out like a tide.

Mu Wu has a profound foundation. If it weren't for his attempt to impact the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores, with his strength, he would have been able to reach the Ultimate Douluo long ago.

Although he is now stuck at the half-step limit, his mental power has already entered the level of the spiritual realm.

In terms of mental strength, he is definitely second to none among human soul masters.

Mu Wu's mental power swept across the Tianduan Mountains powerfully. The pressure contained in his mental power made many soul beasts in the Tianduan Mountains tremble.

The mental force swept across, quickly crossing most of Tianduan Mountain.

When Mu Wu's mental power swept across the western corner of Tianduan Mountain, a cold and violent mental power fiercely bounced his mental power away.

"found it!"

Mu Wu's eyes lit up, and the next moment, his figure flashed and he arrived at the western part of Tianduan Mountain.

A powerful pressure suddenly pressed down.

Countless soul beasts were frightened and crawled on the ground, whimpering. In a cave, a slovenly figure seemed to be enraged by the pressure and roared wildly.

"boom!"

The rocks exploded and a dark red beam of light shot up into the sky.

The dark red color covered most of the sky at a speed visible to the naked eye. For a moment, it was as if hell had arrived.

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

The beam of light trembled and waves of strange buzzing sounds were heard, bringing with them a disturbing feeling of boredom.

Mu Wu remained unmoved and stared at the dark red beam of light.

"boom!"

An invisible wave of air erupted in the air, as if a gust of wind had blown up, causing the trees below to sway violently.

In the beam of light, a figure with dark red mist all over his body slowly stepped out.

He was tattered, had messy hair, and his right arm was broken at the shoulder.

A yellow gourd was hanging around his waist, swaying gently.

Mu Wu stared at the figure closely and said coldly: "Xuan Zi, it is you."

"Roar!"

Hearing the word "Xuan Zi", the sloppy figure roared softly, and a trace of clarity seemed to flash across his eyes.

But in a flash, it was covered by the scarlet blood.

"Xuan Zi, do you know what you have done? If you can still hear me, surrender and go back with me."

Mu Wu looked at Xuan Zi and spoke in a serious tone.

"Roar!"

Xuan Zi roared softly, and the dark red mist on his body became thicker.

He looked at Mu Wu, a hint of cruelty flashed in his scarlet eyes, and he actually took the initiative to attack.

"If you are stubborn, then I will capture you and take you back."

Mu Wu crushed the dark red light ball shot by Xuan Zi with one hand, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

Afterwards, a beam of ice-blue light also shot up into the sky, and endless cold air spread out with Mu Wu as the center.

The originally dark red sky was swept back by the ice-blue light, and a large amount of water vapor in the air condensed into ice particles in an instant.

"Shh!"

Xuan Zi retreated instead of advancing, charging towards Mu Wu, the dark red claws on his right arm emitting a ferocious mist.

"Humph!"

Mu Wu snorted lightly and rushed forward as well. Light gathered in his right hand and collided heavily with Xuan Zi.

"bump!"

In just a moment, the two of them collided with each other, the space seemed to be distorted, and a wave of invisible waves vented out.

"call out!"

Accompanied by a burst of ice-blue light, Xuanzi's figure flew backwards hundreds of meters.

Although it was just a simple collision, the gap between the two sides was clearly highlighted.

"That's it?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Mu Wu's eyes. With this level of strength, he was at most on par with Yan Shaozhe.

How did he kill so many people in Shrek Academy?
Before Mu Wu could figure out what was going on, Xuan Zi, who had been knocked away, had already made a comeback.

Behind him, a huge dark red shadow appeared. It had a strange appearance and two long horns. It was none other than the dark gluttonous bull.

Under Xuan Zi's body, the nine soul rings, eight black and one red, were also stained with a layer of dark red halo, looking extremely evil.

"Roar!"

Xuan Zi let out a beast roar, his soul ring shone, and countless dark red light balls fell like an overwhelming force.

Immediately afterwards, a nebula-shaped vortex fell from the sky, trying to swallow Mu Wu.

"Fancy."

Mu Wu sneered, and a strange snow-white beast appeared behind him.

It has a dragon head, a turtle body, sharp fangs, and four claws, looking very majestic.

If Xuan Zi's dark gluttonous bull is the violent and cold evil spirit, then Mu Wu's Ice River Tyrant is the grand and upright righteous spirit.

One is a divine beast and the other is a demonic beast, they are incompatible.

The nine soul rings, six black and three red, were shining brightly. Mu Wu just raised his hand and wiped them lightly, and in an instant, the countless dark light bullets and nebulae disappeared without a trace.

"With such limited strength, you should just go back with me obediently."

"Glacier Domain!"

Mu Wu expanded his domain, and everything within a radius of ten thousand meters was covered by the ice-blue domain.

The cold air filled with dragon power suppressed Xuanzi's aura in all directions, greatly reducing Xuanzi's attributes.

Mu Wu's domain is very domineering. Not only can it continuously freeze soul power, but it can also terribly weaken the martial soul.

Anyone whose martial soul quality is inferior to Mu Wu will be greatly affected.

Especially the beast martial soul, once it is not as good as the herd martial soul, it will be suppressed extremely miserably.

This suppression is not only reflected in physical attributes and martial spirits, but also in the effects of soul skills.

Generally speaking, strong men of the same level would feel very troubled when encountering Mu Wu's glacier field.

Sure enough, under the glacier domain, Xuan Zi's evil aura was greatly reduced.

Although the Dark Taotie Bull has turned evil, there is still an unimaginable gap between him and Mu Wu's Ice River Tyrant.

"Roar!"

Xuan Zi roared repeatedly, but still could not escape the restrictions of the glacier field.

If Xuan Zi's aura was at the peak of level ninety-eight before, then now, at most, it is just at the beginning of level ninety-eight.

Such strength is simply no match for Mu Wu.

"That's it for now."

Mu Wu’s eighth red soul ring lit up, and instantly, the dragon’s might filled the sky.

One hundred thousand year soul ring skill, eternal freezing.

An extremely strange sealing skill.

Once hit, even if it is Xuan Zi, all his soul power will be completely frozen within three days.

It can be said that if Xuan Zi fell into this trap, he would have no choice but to surrender.

A dark white beam of light shot towards Xuan Zi and was about to hit him.

At this moment, Xuan Zi seemed to sense the danger, and the dark red mist in his body became more violent than ever before.

I saw countless dark red lights bursting out from Xuanzi's body, and his eyes were blood red, as if they were about to bleed.

Behind him, the originally dark red Taotie divine bull also exuded a rich dark red glow.

The dark red light was so deep that it almost turned into a light shield, wrapping the Taotie divine bull.

Xuan Zi's aura rose rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and at the critical moment, he managed to narrowly avoid the dark white light column.

"Ok?"

The sure-win attack missed, and a hint of surprise flashed in Mu Wu's eyes.

He looked closely, feeling Xuan Zi's increasingly terrifying aura, and his eyelids narrowed slightly.

"Buzz!"

The dark red light shield exploded with a loud bang, and Mu Wu looked over quickly, only to see that the martial spirit behind Xuan Zi had completely changed.

The original dark Taotie bull has disappeared, and in its place is an extremely ferocious dark... Taotie.

The dark Taotie appeared in the world, and the blood in Xuanzi's body was stimulated to the limit.

The consequence was that Xuan Zi had completely lost all his sanity and turned into a pure beast.

"Dark Glutton?"

"interesting."

"No wonder Yan Shaozhe can't beat you, so this is the case."

Mu Wu suddenly realized, no wonder Xuanzi could kill so many people in Shrek Academy.

At this moment, Xuan Zi, who has the Dark Taotie in his body, is not weaker than Du Bushi at all. In terms of momentum, he has almost reached the level of half a step limit.

Even for him, he is an opponent worthy of fighting.
