His eyes were clear and firm, without the slightest panic or fear, as if everything before him had nothing to do with him.

The purple-red cone, carrying the breath of death, whistled towards Yuan Gungun's face and was about to swallow him.

However, at this critical moment, Yuan Gungun still did not make any evasive movement, as if he had given up resisting.

"stop!"

At this critical moment, Jili's tongue stopped abruptly, less than two inches away from Yuan Gungun's forehead.

Sticky liquid kept dripping from the dark red tongue, emitting a disgusting fishy smell that made people shudder.

Countless chunks of fat wrapped around Jili's tongue, trying desperately to move forward, but it seemed to be blocked by an invisible force and could only move bit by bit, and its speed was countless times slower than before.

The two sides were in a stalemate, neither could do anything to the other, as if time had stood still.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the Snow Demon Sect breathed a sigh of relief, and their hearts were finally at ease.

Han Yu nodded slightly, with an appreciative smile on her face.

"GunGun, this is too scary." Long Aotian took a deep breath and said with lingering fear.

"He must have done it on purpose." Han Yu analyzed calmly, "Given Yuan Gungun's character, he would never do anything without confidence. That guy is finished, just wait and see."

"In terms of the use and control of soul skills, Yuan Gungun is far better than the other party." Han Yu added.

Hearing Han Yu's words, everyone in the Snow Demon Sect felt relieved and a relaxed smile appeared on their faces.

You know, as the competition continues to this day, although other teams have suffered casualties to varying degrees, the Snow Demon Sect has been able to maintain a complete lineup due to its strong strength.

But now we are in the semi-finals, and it would be bad if there were any reductions in the number of players.

The Snow Demon Sect disciples who were watching the match were still whispering and discussing the direction of the match, but the situation on the field had changed drastically.

Jili's scarlet tongue was getting closer and closer to Yuan Gungun, two inches, one and a half inches, one inch. The strong fishy smell seemed to foreshadow the approach of death.

Everyone held their breath. They knew that if Yuan Gungun was touched by that tongue, he would be defeated instantly, or even seriously injured.

However, at this critical moment, Yuan Gungun's body began to undergo amazing changes.

The originally low roar gradually became louder, as if it contained huge energy that was about to explode.

The bright yellow electric light surrounding him became more and more dazzling, and gradually, the bright yellow began to change into gold, shining brightly, illuminating the entire competition arena.

The thick fat on his body became crystal clear, like golden crystals, reflecting dazzling light.

At the same time, a powerful and rich aura rose from Yuan Gungun's body, becoming stronger and stronger, as if it was going to purify the entire space.

His muscles also began to change. The original bright yellow color was gradually replaced by gold. From a distance, Yuan Gungun looked like a little giant made of gold, mighty and domineering.

Geely's tongue, which was originally as powerful as a hot knife through butter, slowed down significantly due to Yuan Gungun's changes, as if it was stuck in a quagmire and unable to move forward.

And Jili also clearly felt the resistance. His sturdy body began to exert force, his legs pressed tightly against the ground, and the first and third soul rings on his body shone brightly. Soon after, the second soul ring also lit up.

These three spirit rings are all used to enhance Jili’s own strength and speed, which is also the key to his ability to maximize the brain-eating beast spirit.

He possesses strength and speed comparable to that of a brain-eating beast, and his powerful tongue is the brain-eating beast's innate means of attack.

As early as when he acquired his first soul skill, which allowed his head to transform into the appearance of a brain-eating beast, Jili was already able to use this tongue attack skillfully.

As for the next four soul skills, it was not that Ji Li did not want to use them, but in the current situation, there was no chance to use them. He had to go all out and use the strongest attack to break through Yuan Gun Gun's defense.

Yes, his tongue is his strongest attacking point, however, in many cases, the strongest point is often also the weakest point.

Evil soul masters are a group of degenerates wandering on the edge of humanity. They abandon light and embrace darkness, and they always exude a creepy aura.

The reason why they are not tolerated by the world is not only because of their heinous evil deeds, but also because they possess two completely different characteristics from righteous soul masters.

The first is their terrifying fighting style, which is often cruel, bloody and inhumane.

In order to improve their strength, they do not hesitate to trample on all moral and ethical bottom lines and use all kinds of evil means that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

The second is their astonishingly fast speed of improving their cultivation. It is like riding a rocket. In a very short period of time, they can possess power that ordinary people can hardly achieve in their entire lives.

And all of this stems from their twisted souls and endless desire for power.

For Jili, who possesses the martial soul of a brain-eating beast, his rapid improvement comes from devouring the brains of his enemies. No matter whether they are human or soul beasts, as long as they are touched by his scarlet tongue, they will instantly become a hollow shell, and he will greedily absorb their essence and transform it into his own strength.

The more powerful the brain marrow he devours, the faster his cultivation will improve. This is the terrifying aspect of his martial soul.

When his martial soul awakened, he was just an ignorant child. He had no idea what kind of power he possessed, let alone what path he would take.

He continued to live in a daze until he was twelve years old, when he met the person who changed his life—the evil soul master of the Holy Spirit Church.

They discovered the potential in Jili, brought him back to the church, and began to train him evilly. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit Church, Jili's power improved by leaps and bounds. In just less than eight years, he went from an ignorant boy with only two levels of soul power to the evil soul master soul emperor with sixty levels of soul power.

Such a speed of improvement is simply impossible in the normal world of soul masters.

This is an incredible miracle, but behind this miracle are the deaths of countless innocent lives.

As his cultivation level continued to improve, Ji Li devoured more and more brain marrow, and his mind gradually became distorted, becoming cruel, bloodthirsty, and inhumane. This is a symptom that almost all evil soul masters will have. They are like puppets whose souls have been devoured by power, and they can no longer find their original selves.

The method of attack that Gilly used after swallowing the brain was to rely on his tongue, which was as flexible as a poisonous snake.

This tongue is the most powerful and important part of his brain-eating beast martial spirit. Once the tongue is damaged, the blow to him will be devastating.

Therefore, when facing Yuan Gungun's golden light, Jili instinctively felt the danger. He had to retract his tongue first before he could continue to use his more powerful soul skills, or directly kill Yuan Gungun with his tongue and devour his brain.

However, how could Ji Li, whose personality was completely distorted, be willing to give up when facing a Soul Emperor-level strongman who could possibly devour the delicious brain marrow? Greed and desire blinded his eyes and made him make a wrong judgment.

This is also a major drawback of evil soul masters. Their minds have been distorted and they are unable to make correct judgments.

The golden light grew stronger and stronger, like a volcano about to erupt, emitting heart-pounding energy fluctuations.

Looking at the gradually approaching tongue tip, a chilling look appeared on Yuan Gungun's face, as if it were frozen ice that had been there for thousands of years.

His clasped claws suddenly lit up, and golden light flowed like liquid, instantly merging into his palms. A golden energy ball filled with energy suddenly took shape, like a miniature sun, emitting dazzling light.

"Squeak!" With a scream, Jili finally realized that something was wrong. He didn't dare to stab forward anymore, but retracted his tongue regardless of everything.

But now, it's too late.

The tough tongue that Jili was proud of actually stuck firmly to the round Soul Emperor-level energy ball like taffy.

But this is not Yuan Gungun's ultimate goal. Binding the opponent's tongue is just to buy himself precious time to accumulate strength.

In a flash, the golden light on Yuan Gungun's body suddenly surged, as dazzling as the scorching sun. He turned his body slightly to the side, lowered his center of gravity, and prepared for a full-strength attack.

The five fingers of his left hand clenched tightly, firmly controlling the golden light, not allowing Jili's tongue to escape at all. At this moment, his right hand slowly raised, bringing up a gust of fierce wind.

The fifth soul ring on Yuan Gungun's body, the black halo that symbolizes the ten thousand year soul skill, seemed to be burning at this moment, releasing an incomparably dazzling golden light.

The spirit ring, which was originally as black as ink, now looked like it was made of gold, emitting a sacred and majestic aura. At the same time, Yuan Gungun's right hand also underwent a strange change. The sharp claws turned into a palm again, but the surface of this palm was covered with a layer of fine keratin, shining with a metallic luster.

Under the cover of golden light, a huge shadow seemed to appear behind Yuan Gungun. It was a giant standing tall, exuding an incomparable powerful aura.

Yuan Gungun's right hand also completed the final transformation at this moment. The entire palm completely turned into a golden crystal-like shape. The texture of the muscle became blurred, as if it was composed of countless tiny golden crystals.

"Roar!" Yuan Gungun let out a high-pitched roar towards the sky, like the roar of a dragon or a tiger, deafening.

The sound waves turned into visible ripples, spreading in all directions, and the entire competition venue was shaking.

Yuan Gungun, who had accumulated strength, did not hesitate to use his right palm to chop towards Jili's bound tongue.

"Crack!" A deafening sound rang out like a bolt from the blue, and the entire competition venue seemed to be torn apart by this huge energy.

Previously, Jili faced Yuan Gungun's attacks without any harm, not even a trace of scar.

But this time, when Yuan Gungun's palm, which contained terrifying power, chopped down, a strange scene appeared.

A dazzling golden lightning suddenly exploded in Yuan Gungun's palm, turning into a golden lightning as thick as a bucket, which hit Jili's tongue hard.

Along with a shrill scream, a dense layer of golden electric light appeared on the surface of Jili's tongue, as if countless tiny electric snakes were moving on it.

Yuan Gungun suddenly exerted force with his left hand and pulled hard in his direction. Ji Li's huge body suddenly lost balance and staggered forward uncontrollably, his eyes full of disbelief.

A layer of fine golden electric light began to emerge from his body, as if countless fine needles were piercing his body at the same time, causing excruciating pain.

Yuan Gungun seized the opportunity, pushed his feet hard, and shot out like an arrow, and instantly came in front of Jili. He swung out with both palms at the same time, and with lightning speed, he chopped Jili's shoulders and chest three times in a row.

Geely, who was severely injured, seemed to have lost consciousness at this moment. His tongue was still stretched straight, but his body was shaking violently like sieve chaff.

When Yuan Gungun's fourth palm hit Jili's chest, Jili's whole body was covered by golden light as thick as his arm, and the scales on his body were completely opened, like sharp blades, emitting a cold light.

On the rostrum, the mysterious imperial teacher who had been sitting next to the Regent and Crown Prince Xu Tianran and remained silent suddenly moved.

He slowly raised his right hand and gently pressed the armrest of the chair beside him. No sound was heard, but the hard armrest seemed to melt and disappeared silently.

In the competition venue, after four consecutive slaps, Yuan Gungun jumped up, but did not continue to attack, instead he took a few steps back.

He raised his hands, and the golden light on his body gradually faded away. It turned out that he had taken back his martial soul and soul power.

Standing calmly on the competition stage.

The referee, Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan, was a little stunned.

Although Yuan Gungun hit the opponent with several consecutive attacks, judging from the opponent's previous defense, Jili should be able to withstand it!

Even though those four palms looked mighty and powerful, and each time a palm came down, Jili's body shook violently and flashed with lightning, he wouldn't lose just like that.

He is an evil soul master!
However, Yuan Gungun's actions proved that the game was indeed over.

Because he had taken out the bottle and was quietly recovering his soul power.

He even closed his eyes and stood quietly in the middle of the venue.

In the audience area, a tall figure stood quietly not far from the competition stage. He slowly uttered two words, "Perfect." (End of this chapter)
