Chapter 1155 The Eternal Night's Tide! Kill!

The power of this punch is extremely astonishing. Even a mid-stage Divine Emperor of the same level must be on high alert, otherwise, the slightest carelessness will result in broken bones and a shattered body!

Seeing this, You Ruo, who was standing to the side, immediately became somewhat displeased.

All eyes were on junior sister Xie Purou, as if their senior sister was just a decoration with no presence at all.

A hint of defiance flashed in her eyes, and she snapped, "Don't underestimate me!!!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a dark blue suit of armor appeared on You Ruo's body.

The armor shimmered with a water-like luster, and streams of blue energy surged from it, instantly boosting her combat power to the level of a Divine Emperor in the late stage.

She quickly flicked her wrist, and the blue energy around her transformed into a thick stream of water, which slammed towards the burly man's massive fist with a "whoosh" sound.

"Boom!" A deafening roar shook the earth.

The water and the fist collided violently, splashing water everywhere like a torrential rain, creating small craters on the ground.

The burly man's enormous fist trembled slightly from the force contained in the water.

He felt a tremendous force travel from his fist throughout his entire arm, his wrist went numb, and his whole arm felt like it was about to be dislocated, with even his bones aching slightly!

The tall, burly man staggered back ten steps, each step leaving a deep footprint in the ground. He looked down at his trembling fist, his face filled with astonishment and disbelief: "How can even this brat have such formidable strength?!"

His gaze fell on You Ruo, who was surrounded by blue water, his eyes filled with doubt.

"Hmph, just two hotheads who think they're invincible because of their armor. In a one-on-one fight, we might not be able to handle you, but don't forget, the city of Ashes is never short of people!!!"

The thin man controlling the purple lightning was also somewhat surprised, but he quickly regained his composure, his tone full of disdain.

He simply did not believe that these two girls could fight against the entire City of Ashes with just the power of their armor.

Moreover, he was determined to obtain Xie Purou's Nine Tribulations Immortal Body origin!

"Attack together! Stop talking nonsense! If we continue to delay, we can't afford the consequences if the City Lord's Mansion blames us!!!"

The first general to make a move spoke coldly, and before he finished speaking, he made another move.

The white immortal power within her body poured out like a waterfall, condensing in mid-air into a white ribbon tens of feet long, carrying a sharp aura, and rushing straight towards Xie Purou.

Wherever the ribbon passed, it tore a tiny opening in the air.

Not to be outdone, the skinny man's purple lightning ball in his palm instantly swelled, transforming into a ferocious purple lightning beast.

The Thunder Beast was the size of a tiger, its body crackling with purple lightning. It roared and pounced on Xie Purou, the lightning on its claws enough to easily tear apart metal and stone.

The burly man clenched his fist again, enduring the soreness and numbness in his arm, and slammed it down hard at You Ruo. The sound of his fist was even more fierce than before.

The other late-stage generals of the Divine Empress, though silent, also took action.

Some wielded their long swords, slashing out streaks of bright light.

Some made hand seals to summon giant fiery hands.

Others transformed into afterimages, rapidly approaching the two, intending to launch a close-range attack.

Instantly, an even more intense battle erupted at the gates of Ash Extinction City!

Two young girls actually attracted the attention of more than a dozen late-stage Divine Emperor generals who attacked together. Such a scene was extremely rare even in the long history of the City of Ashes.

You Ruo was clad in blue armor, surrounded by blue water, and the power she unleashed was in no way inferior to that of a late-stage Divine Emperor.

Using the lightness of the water, she transformed into a blue afterimage, swiftly weaving among the many powerful figures. As agile as a fish swimming in water, she dodged all the attacks, manipulating everyone as if they were puppets in the palm of her hand.

Suddenly, a general wielding a long sword seized an opening in You Ruo's defenses and swung his sword fiercely.

A dazzling blade of light, hundreds of feet long, instantly took shape. The light was so bright and dazzling that it resembled the Milky Way cascading down from the sky, carrying the momentum to tear through the heavens, and slashed fiercely at You Ruo's side.

This strike was extremely dangerous; the wind from the blade even reached You Ruo's hair, as if it were about to cleave the entire world in two!

Faced with this fatal blow, You Ruo remained calm. She quickly turned around, and a thick stream of water condensed in her palm. With a "whoosh," it swept across the sky and entangled with the bright blade.

The power of flowing water is ever-changing, capable of being both strong and gentle, combining both.

The stream of water, like a nimble snake, tightly coiled around the blade's edge, then suddenly exerted force, forcefully guiding the blade's direction and sending it swinging to the side.

And that direction was precisely where the tall, strong man's enormous fist had been thrown!

"Clang!" A crisp and loud sound rang out, like two pieces of heavy steel colliding violently, making the eardrums of those around them ache.

The blade's edge shattered instantly upon being struck by the fist, turning into countless points of light that dissipated into the air.

The burly man's massive fist, as large as a hill, was also slashed by the blade, leaving a deep, gruesome wound that exposed the bone. Blood gushed out instantly, staining his palm red.

"what!!!"

The tall, burly man cried out in pain. He abruptly pulled back his fist, looked at the wound on his hand, and his face instantly turned ferocious.

He glared fiercely at the general wielding the sword and shouted, "What's wrong with you? How dare you cut me?!"

The general wielding the sword also looked grim. He frowned and said with a hint of helplessness, "I didn't mean to. The blade's edge was deflected by her water flow. There was nothing I could do!"

The atmosphere between the two instantly became tense, and You Ruo took advantage of this moment to transform into a stream of water once again and rush towards another general in the distance.

"The sound of the eternal night tide!!!"

Her jade-like fingers formed a hand seal, and her voice was clear and cold, like being immersed in an icy spring.

As the last word fell, the deep blue seawater surrounding her suddenly boiled.

Those were not ordinary waves, but liquid spiritual energy with a faint glow.

Each drop of water was enveloped in a shimmering, ethereal light, and when it splashed, it sounded as if countless faint whale cries were hidden within the sound waves.

The sound of the tide spread outwards in a ring from her, like invisible waves pushing across the battlefield, enveloping dozens of enemies clad in black iron armor.

The sound of the tide was ordinary at first glance, just the rushing sound of flowing water. But when the sound entered everyone's ears, it suddenly transformed into countless ice needles, piercing deep into their souls!

The three generals closest to You Ruo all had their pupils shrink, and the weapons in their hands suddenly stopped in mid-air.

The battlefield before them vanished instantly, replaced by a boundless, dark sea.

The inky black sea surged with towering waves, the icy water even penetrating the armor, sending a chill down one's spine.

They themselves were like a small boat abandoned on the sea by a raging storm, barely three feet long and without oars, tossed about by the giant waves.

Every time the waves crashed against the hull, the crisp sound of breaking oars echoed in our ears, and the cracks in the hull continued to widen.

The icy seawater seeped in through the cracks, and when it reached my ankles, it carried a chill that could freeze my very soul.

"Where...where is this???"

A bearded general's voice trembled as he gazed at the boundless, dark sea, feeling as if an invisible hand were gripping his heart.

Faced with this vast and despairing ocean, I felt so insignificant, less than a grain of sand, and could be crushed to pieces by the next giant wave at any moment!

"Ah! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!!!"

Another thin-faced general suddenly started swinging his long sword like a madman, the blade slicing through the air but failing to cut anything.

His eyes were unfocused, and his face was covered in snot and tears. He was clearly completely swallowed by the illusion and felt as if he would be torn apart by the sea at any moment.

The tall general not far away crouched on the ground, clutching his head. The armor struck the ground with a dull thud. He muttered to himself, his voice trembling with despair: "Why is there no light in my world? Why can't I escape this dark sea? Where can I find a ship to carry me?!"

In their illusion, they were already trapped in the eternal night, the dark sea devoid of even a glimmer of starlight.

Only the endless waves roared, each turbulence wearing down their will until despair completely overwhelmed their reason.

Many people were still affected by the "Eternal Night Tide," but the generals on the other side of the battlefield quickly realized what was happening.

Those who fell into the illusion were all at a similar level to You Ruo but with slightly weaker souls. Those with stronger abilities, though they also felt the noise in their ears and had a slight headache, were still able to remain conscious.

"Wake up! This is an illusion, a soul attack!!!"

A general wielding a giant axe roared, his voice booming across the battlefield.

He tried to wake his companions with his voice, but the three who were most deeply immersed in the illusion were as if they were deaf, still struggling and crying in the same spot.

"Don't be swayed! Stay focused, this is all fake!!!"

Another silver-armored general covered his forehead, veins bulging on his temples.

He could clearly feel the sound of the tide trying to tear his soul apart, so he could only grit his teeth and circulate his spiritual energy to build a thin barrier around his soul.

Just then, a burly general suddenly opened his eyes. Although he was also affected by the sound of the tide and his head was as heavy as lead, he still forced himself to carry a dark blue-black spear and rushed out.

The spear had a faint dark glow, and its tip was so sharp that it could reflect a person's image. It was clearly forged from black iron mixed with the bones of a demon beast.

He knew that the best way to break through a soul attack was to interrupt the caster!

"Suffer death!!!"

The general roared, his arm muscles bulged, and the black iron spear instantly transformed into a streak of bluish-black lightning. As it traversed the void, it roared like a dragon's cry and pierced right in front of You Ruo in the blink of an eye.

The shot came too fast; the tip of the spear had already pierced through the spiritual energy barrier in front of You Ruo, and the cold wind from the spear swept across her cheek.

But Youruo's eyes remained cold and indifferent, without the slightest hint of panic.

The deep blue ocean current beneath her feet suddenly surged, and countless water droplets coalesced into a ten-foot-long dragon.

The dragon's scales were clearly visible, each one glowing with a ghostly blue light. When the dragon raised its head, it spewed out a mouthful of water mist carrying a chill.

"Roar!!!"

The dragon let out a deafening roar and charged fiercely at the dark blue spear.

"boom!!!"

A loud bang rang out, and the dark blue dragon was instantly pierced by the spear, turning into countless water droplets that rained down.

However, the spear was also shaken off course by the dragon's immense force. The spear tip grazed You Ruo's sleeve and plunged deep into the nearby rock, sending up countless fragments of stone.

The burly general's expression changed drastically, and his hand gripping the gun barrel went numb.

He never expected that his all-out attack would be so easily neutralized by the opponent's water escape technique!

Before he could react, another loud shout came from the other side of the battlefield: "You little thief, take my 'Mountain Suppressing Seal'!"

The speaker was a round-faced general who reached into his storage bag and pulled out a palm-sized square seal.

The seal was entirely black, with fine patterns covering its surface. It was icy to the touch, and it was forged from some kind of extraterrestrial metal. Just holding it in one's hand gave off a heavy sense of oppression.

The round-faced general tossed the large seal into the air, chanting incantations, and the seal instantly swelled.

In an instant, it rose to over a hundred feet high, like a black mountain suspended in mid-air, with three twisted runes engraved on its base.

The runes shimmered with a dark golden light. Although their specific meanings were incomprehensible, one could still sense the profound Daoist principles they contained, as if they could suppress all things.

"town!!!"

The round-faced general suddenly waved his hand, and the black seal slammed down with a whooshing sound. The air was compressed and hissed, and cracks even appeared in the ground beneath the seal, clearly indicating that You Ruo's aura had been firmly locked in.

This attack was equivalent to smashing a mountain down on her; even a strong person of the same level would find it difficult to withstand it head-on!

You Ruo felt a strong sense of alarm. She could clearly feel a dangerous aura following her like a shadow, making it impossible for her to dodge.

But she was a veteran of countless battles, with combat experience far exceeding that of her peers. With a touch of her toes to the ground, the dark blue seawater around her instantly condensed into a giant whale.

The whale was ten zhang long, with fins that spread out like a giant umbrella covering the sky, and eyes that were two burning ghostly flames, making it look majestic and terrifying.

"go!!!"

With a soft shout, You Ruo sent the giant whale hurtling toward the black seal in the air.

She herself transformed into a streak of pale blue light, like a nimble fish, weaving through the void. In a flash, she leaped out of the seal's locking range.

"boom!!!"

Another deafening roar followed as the black seal slammed heavily onto the giant whale.

The deep blue whale's body was instantly smashed to pieces, turning into countless water droplets that rained down.

However, the black seal was also jolted by the impact of the giant whale, slowing its descent.

When the great seal slammed into the ground, the entire battlefield trembled violently, and a chasm tens of feet long split open in the ground, with rubble and dust flying everywhere.

The surrounding soldiers were so shocked that they retreated one after another, their faces filled with horror.

You Ruo stood on a rock not far away, a few drops of water still clinging to her skirt, her cold gaze sweeping across the battlefield.

Although the generals who remained conscious were strong, they couldn't harm her for the time being. However, the three generals who were trapped in the illusion were the best opportunity to break through.
