Chapter 371 - Emerald Dead

'He is alive!' Dai Yun'er's voice rang out in Wu Siduo's head but she didn't have time to reply as the Emerald General executed his move.

The Emerald General erupts explosively in a terrifying light, waves of emerald light surge from his eyes, moving through his body before engulfing his entire broadsword.

Finally, it all gathered towards the edges of the broad sword just as Wu Siduo began to move to the side, the Emerald General hacked out.

With the sound of the air being ripped apart, a terrifying emerald light hacked down on Wu Siduo whose figure began to glow with a purplish light.

Before it blurred away, just as the long blade cut through the area where she was, tearing apart everything within a hundred-meter straight line.

Just as this happened, Wu Siduo appeared behind the Emerald General, her claws were out as she stabbed towards the Emerald General. With ten illusionary figures that looked like her, appearing around the Emerald General.

'FIfth Soul Skill- Hell Civit: Hell Connected Shadow.'

'Ninth Soul Skill: Hell Civit: Hell Slash.'

Each of the Wu Siduos claws flashed with a purples light that left behind a streak as they pierced through the hide of the Emerald General.

Yet to their shock, they felt the soul power of the General wrapping around their body causing them to freeze.

"I told you, little tiger, being strong isn't enough."

Just as the Emerald General said this, the gleaming blade of energy that was traveling forward began to tremble before it expanded out. To Wu Siduo's slight shock, she detects the emerald energy begin to spread out from the broadsword, the long blade attack, and the Emerald General body.

Before it began to twist and turn, continuous streams of energy could be seen rotating, forming a maelstrom that was surrounding both of them.

Yet what worried Wu Siduo was the fact that the Emerald General began to glow even brighter and brighter.

"Since you're so full of tricks, let's see how you get out of this one... Little kitty." The Emerald General turned its head, giving Wu Siduo a creepy smile before everything turned green.

From all over the forest battlefield, whether it be the Soul Masters and Soul-Beast or the creatures that were assaulting them. They all paused for a quick second as they felt a terrifying amount of energy appearing before the whole forest shook.

As a terrifying thick emerald green pillar of light appeared on the left side of the forest, plowing through the clouds and reaching a thousand meters high.

As if it wanted to pierce through the heavens, blinding and brilliantly illuminating the whole forest in emerald green before it began to dye down.

With the aftermath being a gigantic crate that was at least fifty meters deep, most of the blast being shot upwards.

There was nothing in sight as if everything that was in the blast was obliterated from this world. Yet it was then one of the creatures appeared at the sight looking all around before gleefully laughing.

"Well now, isn't this-"

Time and Space distorted before a black-white streak of light flashed behind the Emerald General before a fist plowed through the general c_h_e_s_t.

"A surprise, you aren't dead."

That was all the Emerald General could say before its figure was engulfed by a black-white light that obliterated all of its cells and moved to its soul.

But it was obstructed from reaching its soul by something before the body of the Emerald General was destroyed.

'Eighth Soul Skill Hell Civit: Nether Step.'

'Ninth White Soul Skill: Wrath of the White Tiger.'

"Tsk." Wu Siduo muttered as she saw the dissolving body of the Emerald General while being thankful she had a skill like nether Step.

This skill allowed her to travel a long distance through space and time, allowing her to escape the blast before it could fully strike her. Glancing to her hands that were trembling with burn marks, she frowned as she had to wait for the Emerald General to be fully engulfed before moving away.

'Still, I found out something, destroying its body is pretty much useless but... Its soul might be their weakness, although something did stop the strike.' Thought Wu Siduo with a frown.

Her Wrath of the White Tiger was an attack that hits the opponent with the energy to destroy them on an atomic level while obliterating their soul.

But something protected the General soul, making her wonder if it was similar to how something was fortifying the creature's mind.

That was all she could think about as another creature appeared, with it transforming into the Emerald General who was smiling at her.

"Now then, let's continue this fun before it ends soon." Said the Emerald General before dashing towards Wu Siduo who frowned even more.

"After all, the others should be wearing down the others!"

A large sound rang out!

Two individuals faced off. Space was trembling with small cracks forming with the boundless ocean and emerald light clashing. The trees around were being bent and twisted from the fluctuation of energy around.

"Give up!'

'Annoying.' Thought Queen Marina as she clashed once again with the Emerald General she could have sworn she had killed before.

Her silver trident swept across, a dazzling blue light passed through the shaft before brilliantly lighting up the spearhead as a maelstrom began to appear from it.

Just as she thrust out with the trident piercing towards the Emerald General who swiftly countered with its emerald spear.

In the next instant, the spear and trident collided!

This wasn't just a collision of the laws but the sea and emerald light as they clashed with each other, trying to overpower the other. Before the next moment, the emerald light began to be absorbed by the maelstrom with the area around them shattering and breaking apart.

"You still continue to try and resist, yet know it's useless!"

The Emerald General expression changes as it feels its spear being drawn in by Queen Marina as her trident was twirling, instantly absorbing the Emerald light.

Before she immediately the spear lashed out with a graceful sweep, thrust, and slash with the added strength of emerald light and sea.

That was coiling around her trident, leaving the Emerald General on the defensive as it tried to withstand these fierce attacks.

But the Emerald General kept up with the terrifying spearmanship that allowed it to withstand her terrifying attacks.

A battle at their level was unusual in the beginning. With no one expecting beings like them to clash so quickly in the beginning.

"Struggling is futile, you pest. You have already killed me countless times but I will continue to come back. So give-"

"Do you ever shut up." Queen Marina bluntly said as she was getting sick of hearing this creature's constant ranting.

But she knew its words weren't all full of crap as he was right about it being able to come back. As she brutally killed him at least three times now but it kept on coming back from those other creatures.

This made her even wearier of these invaders as if beings like the General can easily come back, what about those who are stronger?

'Oh Prince of the Sea, I hope you come back soon.'

"Useless wench-"

"Your immortality isn't endless, all we need to do is destroy all of the creatures for you to not come back, so shut up."

"Oh? You think it's that easy... Especially when you all have brought us even more resources..."

"What?" Queen Marina's eyes slightly widened when she saw the hideous smile on the Emerald General face.

It happened in an instant.

Qin Huo who was a part of the Mu Xi squad was stabbed through the c_h_e_s_t as they were overrun by the creatures. Even with Mu Xi taking on most of them.

Seeing one of her soldiers in her squad go down, made her heartache, but she knew now wasn't time to lament. She wasn't the only one as her squad expression was all grim with one of them who was named, Qin Bo was in tears.

"Qin Bo, grab your cousin and take him back to the city!" Mu Xi shouted, causing Qin Bo's eyes to widen before he nodded his head.

Grasping Qin Huo, he dashed towards the city, his body erupting with blood essence as he became a streak of light.

Mu Xi nodded her head to this before moving her head back to the front, the flames on her ancient sword erupting with even more flames. Clenching it, she hacked down with it, unleashing a sea of fire that began to surge forward, engulfing the creatures.

The creatures screamed out in pain as they felt half of their body being severely burned to crisp, while the flames were melting the other half.

As Qin Bo was dashing through the forest, jumping over some of the bodies of the creatures they have killed. He could feel his cousin's heartbeat was gradually slowing down as the seconds passed, causing him to grit his teeth before increasing his speed.

He swung his punch out with his fist, destroying the collapsed trees and rubbles that seems to have traveled over here. Blowing them apart with his Martial Soul which was his right hand, he continued onward.

It didn't take long before he saw the city barrier that was the barrier with the city gate and walls causing him to release a smile. As he saw a team of healing Soul Master and Soul Beasts that were stationed there.

Rapidly increasing his speed, even more, he sped towards the radiant barrier, just as he reached it he quickly moved inside of it as he began to yell.

"Help! My cousin-"

Qin Bo stops talking as he felt his arms were empty causing him to glance behind him to see his cousin's body was outside of the barrier.

"What?" Qin Bo quickly moved outside of the barrier, grabbing his cousin's body and moving towards the barrier.

But to his shock, he saw the barrier wouldn't let him bring in his cousin's body, no matter how much he tried to pull him inside.

"What the hell! Curse this barrier! Is it acting up right now? Damn it all, hey please come here and help heal my cousin." Qin Bo yelled towards one of the auxiliary Soul Masters who were already on their way.

"Why won't he enter inside of the barrier?" Questioned the Soul Master as he summoned his martial soul, the Nine Heart Flowering Apple which was giving off a soft light.

"Dammit, I don't know... Did they say something was wrong? Is it because of those creatures?"Questioned Qin Bo but the Soul Master only shrugged his shoulder.

"We haven't received any reports or word about there being a problem with the barriers... Is something wrong with this fellow?"

"Other than he was stabbed through the c_h_e_s_t, no." Qin Bo furrowed brow but the Soul Master only sighed before saying, " Well it's fine, we can figure this out after he comes back-"

The sound of frequent lightning rang out, as an emerald light flashed with blood splashing.

"W-What... Qin Huo, what are you doing!"Shouted Qin Bo in rage as he stared at the emerald sword that was crackling with lightning, sticking through his c_h_e_s_t.

It wasn't just him but it was the Auxiliary Soul Master whose eyes were staring in shock but Qin Huo didn't say anything except a roar.

As his figure began to change, growing ancient armor, multiple eyes, and one gilded horn on his forehead causing their eyes to widen.

As Qin Huo in the next moment, looked just like the creature Qin Bo and their squad was fighting before.
