Chapter 264: Revealing Trump Cards: Susanoo's Incredible Defense

Yu Yuanzhen's claim about making an exception wasn't entirely wrong. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, despite being called a sect, was more of a family clan with a relatively small number of people. Most members carried the family name, and compared to other sects, there were very few outsiders.

The reason their clan was one of the top three was mainly due to the presence of a Title Douluo, alongside the Dragon Transformation technique and the True Dragon Nine Crowns.

Su Ming, however, couldn't understand why the lower-ranked sects didn't even have a single Title Douluo, despite their decent martial souls and extensive support. Couldn't they at least nurture one?

Shaking his head, Su Ming replied, "As the leader of a sect, use your head. I've already allied with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, so do you really think I'd join your clan? And this is still under duress!"

Yu Yuanzhen laughed, "Hahaha! Fair enough, fair enough! I only mentioned it casually. But once I get that technique, you'll no longer be of any use."

At this point, Ning Rongrong stepped forward and said, "Clan Leader Yu, the three great clans have always stood together. Are you really trying to provoke a war between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"

Yu Yuanzhen scoffed, "Standing together? That's just against the Spirit Hall. Besides, I'll let you live, but the others' fate will depend on Su Ming. Your father is a smart man; he wouldn't start a war over someone already dead."

Then, Yu Yuanzhen turned to Su Ming, his tone growing colder. "Su Ming, will you hand over the technique willingly, or should I take it myself?"

Su Ming responded, "Aren't you concerned about your grandson, who's still in my grasp?"

Yu Tianheng, panicking, pleaded, "Grandfather, save me!"

Dugu Yan looked at Yu Tianheng's cowardice and thought bitterly that she must have been blind to ever feel affection for him.

Yu Yuanzhen, unfazed, said, "Don't worry. Su Ming won't even have the chance to act."

He waved his hand. "Capture everyone. Kill anyone who resists except for Su Ming."

Dugu Yan, enraged, shouted, "Yu Yuanzhen! Aren't you afraid of repercussions from Heaven Dou Empire? And my grandfather is Dugu Bo! Even if you don't care about yourself, you should think about your clan!"

Yu Yuanzhen hesitated slightly at the mention of Dugu Bo. Still, they were in a remote area, and he had already sent someone to clear out the surroundings. No one would know what happened here.

"Take them!"

Su Ming's face darkened. It seemed he would have to reveal some of his strength. Yu Yuanzhen would have to be dealt with by Gu Rong.

Su Ming quickly distributed the remaining space talismans he had. These were third-level talismans; he no longer had any fourth-level ones.

"Inject soul power into these talismans to instantly move 100 meters. They might save your life. Stay safe!"

"And you all, stay close to me."

"Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, whether we survive this will depend on you two!"

Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing knew how dire the situation was. Su Ming was preparing for a desperate fight.

Although Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's strength was somewhat lower than their opponents, Xiao Wu's Eight-Stage Drop and Tempest Kick packed a punch. Zhu Zhuqing's bleeding and defense-breaking abilities were also quite formidable.

When Su Ming opened his eyes again, immortal patterns appeared at the corners, and his eyes changed from black to red, with a pinwheel-like pattern in the irises.

Seeing these eyes, Xiao Wu felt a surge of confidence. Their safety should be assured for a short while, but they needed to end this quickly. The enemy outnumbered them, and most were Soul Emperors or higher. If this dragged on, Su Ming's spiritual power might run out.

Those who recognized the eyes immediately remembered—these were evolved Sharingan!

They had almost forgotten about it after all this time.

Without wasting any words, Su Ming activated Susanoo. In front of everyone, a massive blue figure enveloped Xiao Wu and the others, forming a protective shield.

"Stay within the area covered by this blue figure. If you step out of it, you're on your own," Su Ming said grimly, his eyes locked on the enemies ahead.

"Dugu Yan, use the antidote and release your poison. Time it right, and see if you can control them. Everyone else, coordinate with Xiao Wu and Zhuqing."

Su Ming didn't expect much from the others. Xiao Wu had her life-saving soul skills, and Zhu Zhuqing's speed minimized her chances of injury.

Su Ming's actions shocked everyone present, including Gu Rong, who was hidden nearby. Gu Rong was incredibly curious—what kind of technique was this?

It seemed he didn't need to intervene immediately. Following Su Ming's plan, he only had to watch Yu Yuanzhen carefully, confident that Su Ming had a strategy in mind.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan members, seeing the giant blue figure, were initially astonished. But they didn't believe in its power and launched their attacks on the blue entity.

Immediately, smoke filled the area, obscuring vision.

"Rongrong, boost my soul power!"

Taking advantage of the obscured view, Su Ming poured 80% of his soul power into summoning a massive wooden dragon.

With the boosts from Immortal Mode and various amplifications, the strength of this wood dragon approached Title Douluo level!

Ning Rongrong timed her boost perfectly, amplifying Su Ming's power.

When the smoke cleared, the group was shocked to see that the blue figure remained unscathed. But they didn't know that Su Ming had expended a significant amount of spiritual power to withstand their attacks. A quick resolution was necessary.

If he didn't need to protect so many people, he wouldn't have had to reveal Susanoo, one of his trump cards!

Gu Rong, still hidden, was impressed. What a clever move, Su Ming.

Su Ming sent a mental message to Gu Rong, "Bone Grandpa, I can't maintain this for long. Watch for your chance!"

"Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, prepare to attack!"

In that moment, Su Ming's soul power fully recovered, thanks to his soul power restoration abilities.

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, knowing exactly what Su Ming intended, swiftly moved to attack the enemies entangled by Su Ming's wood dragon. With Ning Rongrong's amplifications, they efficiently took down their foes.

Yu Yuanzhen, watching his clan's elites struggle against mere children, was furious. Useless! But Su Ming's strength had surpassed his expectations. Now that Su Ming had been provoked and shown such power, he had to die!
