At the same time, within the Dugu residence in Tian Dou City, a figure flew out into the air.
Clearly, Dugu Bo had also sensed the commotion outside the city.
In the past, during such large-scale battles, Dugu Bo wouldn't dare to get involved.
After all, he knew his own limits—don't go rushing into the chaos only to end up as part of it.
But times had changed. A few days ago, he had reached the peak of Level 93, and after consuming the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, his soul power level broke through two barriers in succession, directly advancing him to Level 95 Title Douluo. Dugu Bo felt that it was time for the name Poison Douluo to rise again.
The weakest Title Douluo on the continent? I, Dugu Bo, am no longer that man!

Meanwhile, at the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
Inside a quiet room, Chen Xin, who had been cultivating, opened his eyes.
"What's going on? A battle between Title Douluos?"
Sensing the surge of soul power fluctuations rising dozens of miles away in the southwest, Chen Xin frowned deeply.
Without hesitation, he stood up and left the quiet room, flying toward the sect's main hall.
Just as he stepped out, he saw Gu Rong also flying toward the main hall. Clearly, Gu Rong had sensed it as well.
"Old Bones, you go notify the sect leader. I'll inform the elders."
Chen Xin spoke to Gu Rong.
"Alright!"
Gu Rong nodded slightly and turned around to find Ning Fengzhi.
Although the battle raging dozens of miles away in the southwest didn't involve their Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, a clash between Title Douluos—especially multiple Title Douluos—would undoubtedly have far-reaching consequences. Whether or not the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect should intervene was a decision that needed to be made by Ning Fengzhi, the head of the sect.
Soon, six figures gathered in the main hall of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
Aside from Chen Xin and Gu Rong, there was Ning Fengzhi, who hadn't even had time to properly dress, as well as the recently promoted Title Douluos: Elder One, Elder Two, and Elder Three of the sect.
"Sword Uncle, can you sense what's happening over there?"
Ning Fengzhi asked Chen Xin with a frown.
Chen Xin nodded slightly and replied, "There are five Title Douluos fighting. Originally, there were six—one side has two, and the other has four.
But one of the weaker side is extremely formidable. He took down one opponent, so now it's two against three."
Chen Xin's spiritual power couldn't extend far enough, so his perception of the disturbances coming from dozens of miles away in the southwest was only approximate, with some deviation from the actual situation.
It wasn't six Title Douluos fighting—it wasn't even the previous two versus four or the current two versus three. In reality, Chu Chengzhou was taking on five opponents alone and had even "converted" one of them into an ally.
Before Ning Fengzhi could ask further, Chen Xin continued, "One presence has clearly weakened—they must have suffered severe injuries. Now it's two against two."
"That strong?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi furrowed his brows.
In such a short amount of time, they had already killed one and severely injured another. Even if the fallen and injured Title Douluos weren't particularly strong, it still demonstrated the remarkable strength of the person responsible.
Suddenly, within the perceptions of Chen Xin and Gu Rong, eight more Title-level presences appeared in the southwest.
"Cheap Swordman, if my senses aren't mistaken, eight more have arrived?"
Gu Rong said incredulously to Chen Xin.
Remember, there were originally six on the scene, and now eight more had arrived, making it fourteen Title Douluos in total.
Damn, did they all agree to meet up here?
Even back when Tang Hao crushed former Spirit Hall Pope Qian Xunji, it didn't cause such a stir!
"No, something's off. It doesn't feel like Title Douluos..."
Straining to sense the distant commotion, Chen Xin frowned deeply.
"Not good, Fengzhi! These new arrivals are eight Title-level Nether White Tigers. That damn son-in-law of yours must've stirred up trouble again!"
Suddenly, Chen Xin exclaimed in shock. Before his words had fully left his mouth, he vanished from the hall and hurried toward the southwest.
If the battle had no connection to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Chen Xin would naturally have enjoyed watching the spectacle. After all, a chaotic battle among so many experts would undoubtedly be one of the biggest spectacles on the continent in nearly a century.
However, since one side consisted of the Star Luo Empire's Nether White Tigers, and the location was near Tian Dou City, it was clear who the other side must be.
Either it was the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's ally, the Tian Dou Empire, which opposed the Star Luo Empire.
Or it was Chu Chengzhou, his future grandson-in-law, who had deep grievances with the Star Luo Empire.
And given the current circumstances, the likelihood of Chu Chengzhou being involved was much higher than that of the Tian Dou Empire. Naturally, Chen Xin couldn't sit idly by.
Seeing Chen Xin rush off, the remaining five people in the hall were momentarily stunned before hurrying toward the southwest as well.
Watching others' drama was one thing—you could enjoy it thoroughly—but if the drama involved your own people, the situation became entirely different.
---
Meanwhile, on the battlefield.
Seven Nether White Tigers charged ferociously from the front, while behind them, the two Title Douluos, Tyrant Dragon and Wind and Thunder, blocked the retreat. For a moment, Chu Chengzhou appeared to be surrounded.
Moreover, facing nine opponents, the situation was highly unfavorable for him.
However, Chu Chengzhou showed no fear, especially after seeing that the three "cute-ified" summon beasts below had already prepared themselves.
"I wonder how many big tigers the Star Luo Empire will have left after tonight?"
With a calm expression, Chu Chengzhou gazed at the seven seemingly fierce Nether White Tigers ahead and thought to himself.
Though he was thinking, his actions didn't stop. Crimson and yellow light radiated from his body as his soul power surged. Defensive technique: Flower Blooming in an Instant activated.
Instantly, a perfectly interwoven red-and-yellow soul power flower bloomed above Chu Chengzhou's head. As petals of both colors fluttered down, a faint divine light enveloped his entire body.
Next, a circle of white light rippled outward as the Killing God Domain unfolded. The colorful glow on his forehead flared, and the soul bone skill Elemental Domination activated, increasing the potency of all elemental attacks by 30%.
Then, Chu Chengzhou drew his bow and prepared to strike.
There was no exchange of meaningless banter. Dai Tao, who harbored an unshakable grudge against Chu Chengzhou—a grudge that even the waters of four seas couldn't dilute—chose to attack without hesitation.
Roar—
A deafening tiger roar echoed as the seven massive Nether White Tigers flapped their wings and charged straight at Chu Chengzhou.
But at this moment, an invisible domain force enveloped an area hundreds of meters wide.
In an instant, Dai Tao, the six royal elders controlling the Nether White Tigers, and the two Title Douluos all felt a terrifying gravitational force pulling them toward the ground.
This was the innate domain of the hundred-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape: Gravity Domain.
The next moment, Xiao Ming, the summoned Titan Giant Ape who had been lying in wait, dispelled its disguise. In an instant, it transformed from a small monkey less than a meter tall into a terrifying giant beast over ten meters tall.
